Zander spoke, and the private room fell silent.Even though he spoke calmly, there was an overwhelming air of aggression about him.The battle-hardened aggression kept showing nonetheless.It was terrifying.The middle-aged man and the lobby manager were so scared that they were silent and dared not speak.Few people in River City would dare say something like wanting to humiliate Quill.Zander just said it out loud.However, the two of them dared not doubt him.Others probably could not do it, but this mysterious big shot in front of them certainly could!"Do it."I'll transfer the money to your company's account."Zander reached out his hand and rapped the table. Then he slowly got up and headed outside."Your Excellency... Don't mention it."We're honored to work for you. We dare not charge you any money..."With his head covered in sweat, the middle-aged man was overwhelmed by Zander's domineering aura."Just take it since I'm giving it to you."Having things done n

The lobby manager could not help muttering to himself."I don't know..."The general manager shook his head slightly, a little hesitantly."Don't ask, and don't talk."You just need to know that there are some things that we can never mess with."The general manager slowly waved his hand and changed the topic."Sir, don't worry. I'll handle this as per their requirements."The lobby manager dared not ask any more questions for fear that he would bring disaster to himself if he knew more about it."I will take care of it myself."The middle-aged man said and slowly entered the hotel....Emperor Business Entertainment Club.In a lavishly decorated private room.Quill and Simon were each half-stretched out on the soft couch.The water in the gold-plated basin beneath their feet felt just right.They were both in their nightrobes, slouching.Each of them was having the time of their lives with beautiful women in their arms left and right.Quill and Simon soaked their feet

Two years ago today, someone sent Sean to the Quinn family house.The Quinn family argued with Willow over this for a long time.Therefore, Simon still had some memory of it."That was the day that loser Sean started having Willow to himself for two years."And that's the day I, Quill Zimmer, will take Willow away from him."Quill seemed happier as he spoke.Sean had also slapped him before, so he hated Sean a lot more than Simon."Young Master Zimmer, you have my support!"Simon chuckled and said."I really need your help on this matter."Find a way to spread the word about it, and the more people know about it, the better."I just want everyone to know I stole that loser Sean Lennon's woman!"I want everyone to know that I cuckolded him. Hahahaha!"Quill began to laugh uncontrollably before he could even finish speaking."Brother Quill, don't worry."I'll have it done."Simon laughed with him, also looking forward to that day....Afternoon.River City Jeanne Distr

"Aunt Fion, Uncle Kent..."Jeremy knew he could no longer keep it a secret. He turned around slowly and forced a smile.His face was red, and his smile looked worse than crying."Jeremy? What... what's this?"Kent was also stunned as he sized up Jeremy, confused."Aren't you getting a promotion?"You said you were going to be in charge of the whole Jeanne District. Why..."Fion widened her eyes and asked.Jeremy tried to find some excuse to cover it up.However, thinking Sean might have something to do with it, he dared not lie."Ahem, Aunt Fion, Uncle Kent..."The higher-ups say I don't have a solid foundation, so I need to refresh my work skills."So I have to start from the bottom up..."Jeremy was silent for a few seconds but eventually said with a sullen expression.Fion and Kent were confused.They had no idea if Jeremy got a promotion, but it was true that he was now reduced to guarding the main gate.'Didn't he say yesterday that he handpicked the position for S

Fion was laughing while Kent was speechless....Six o'clock in the evening.Willow pushed the door open, a little exhausted.She unbuttoned her clothes while kicking off her heels.Today, she was not only exhausted from work but also disappointed.Quill and Homer's visit shattered her newfound expectations for Sean."Willow, the car ran out of petrol, so I didn't go pick..."Sean came out and tried to explain.However, Willow waved her hand slightly and interrupted Sean without even looking at him.It was as if she was not in the mood to listen to Sean."What happened?"Sean asked Willow as he frowned slightly."What happened? Would it help if I told you?"Sometimes I think my mother's right."How naive of me. You can't even afford the petrol!"It's ridiculous that I believed you can do anything else. I mean I'm ridiculous."Willow shook her head slightly and slowly sat down on the couch in a quiet trance."Willow..."Sean was very confused.Willow was happy when s

Yesterday.As Sean left the private room, he said something to Jeremy."I think the guard position suits you."Then Jeremy, out of nowhere, brought a gift and apologized to Sean.Sean said he would not be able to even guard the main gate if he continued talking nonsense.Willow did not think much about it back then, only finding it a relief for her anger.'But now that I think about it, Sean's confidence and Jeremy's humble attitude...'It seems there's something more to this...'Confused, Willow turned to look at Fion."Mom, what are you talking about?"What on earth is going on?"Willow asked in a whisper as she frowned."Haha!"Fion laughed and put the groceries on the table."Isn't there something your dad's been trying to solve all this time?"I saw him so frustrated that he struggled to sleep all night, so I thought I'd ask Jeremy for help."Guess what? Hahaha! We saw him in a security uniform guarding the main gate. Haha!"He said he wanted someone else to be th

"Perhaps."With Sean's character, he would not explain too much.He told Hayden yesterday that Jeremy preferred the gate guarding position.They also agreed they would consider what Sean said if Mr. Luke's health improved.If he did not get better, they would assume Sean never said it.Now it seemed that Hayden's health had improved."We're not supposed to gloat, but Lucy and her family did need a lesson."Kent put the food in his hand down and said, "Sean was right to do that."Willow felt strangely happy when she heard that.Sean getting Kent and Fion's approval made Willow more excited than when she got into a prestigious university.She had no idea why though.Fion looked at Sean and did not retort like she usually would."Willow, come and help me."I'm in a good mood today, so I'm going to show you what I can do."Fion said with a smile as she rolled up her sleeves."Oh, okay."When Willow heard that, all her fatigue was gone.Fion had not cooked once in the two y

"I see."Kent saw that Sean did not want to say anymore, so he stopped asking."Dinner! Dinner!"Dad, hurry over and wash your hands. Sean, I'll get you some water."Willow walked to the kitchen door and spoke to Sean and Kent."Okay!"Sean smiled and nodded.They enjoyed the meal.A rare coziness slowly spread through the family.Sean listened most of the time while everyone at the dinner table talked.Fion and the rest also knew Sean was a man of few words, so they let him be.With a spoon and a fork in hand, Sean glanced over the three people's faces.He suddenly felt emotional.His heart, which was once fiercely tough, had softened considerably.There was a time when everything Fion did disgusted him.However, putting himself in her shoes, who would willingly marry off their daughter to a cripple?Therefore, Sean's initial dislike of Fion had dissipated quite a bit.Sean was willing to protect them as long as they changed....After dinner.Willow went back to h
