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

"Garden balsam stem, female ginseng, milkvetch roots, common clubmoss herb..."Sean took a pen and began writing down.Female ginseng had antioxidants and could nourish the blood.It could treat nerve damage caused by ischemia.The microelements in milkvetch roots could protect nerves.It could remove free radicals and be conducive to the growth of nerve cells."With my condition, it has to be the strong stuff.‘So the age of the herbs is important.’Sean thought as he marked the year behind the herbs.Soon, Sean listed seven or eight herbs on a piece of paper.Sean had given Old Madam Quinn a pill on her birthday.Quill crushed the pill with his foot.Sean was the only one who knew how many rich and powerful people would fight over that pill.It was very precious.However, if he made this pill, that pill was no match for this one.Sean only had to take this pill and do the special needle treatment.He would get twice the result with half the effort.Sean was 200% conf

"Mom, why won't you ask Uncle Lennon to help us?"My teacher also told me to get Uncle Lennon to apologize..."Candy asked in confusion as she raised her little face."Because..."Leah froze slightly.Last time, Sean did temporarily scare Mr. Lowe's family with force.However, how could you solve things with your fists in this society?Mr. Lowe had a lot of connections.Mr. Lowe could have just sent a couple of his people to take care of Sean.Therefore, instead of bothering Sean, Leah decided to take matters into her own hands."Because even Uncle Lennon couldn't beat the person this time."Leah shook her head slightly as she muttered to herself.Candy curled her lip and said, "I think Uncle Lennon is the best!""Alright, let's not bother Uncle Lennon."Uncle Lennon might be leaving soon, and he has no obligation to help us."Leah's eyes dimmed a little as she spoke."Where's Uncle Lennon going?"Candy asked nervously as she tugged at the straps of her bag over her sh
Chapter 92
Mr. Lowe had set everything in a few words.Jack nodded slightly and said, "That makes sense. Let's do it."Leah's face turned pale as she gritted her teeth and said, "I don’t have that kind of money."They were not favored by the Quinn family. It might also be a difficult task for Simon—the favorite member if he asked the Quinn family for two million dollars.Therefore, there was no way she was going to get the money."You can't afford it? How dare you behave so arrogantly if you can't afford it?"You even dared to casually beat people up. How pompous of you!"I'm telling you. There are people in River City you can't afford to cross."Mr. Lowe snorted coldly and said as he flicked his sleeve."I never care if I can afford to beat someone up."It depends on whether I want to beat them up."Once Mr. Lowe finished, there was suddenly a voice outside the door.Then the door opened, and Sean propelled his wheelchair into the room."Uncle..."Candy's face lit up as soon as she

Everyone in the room turned around when they heard the sound.Only Sean looked calm and did not bat an eye.Jack made a gesture to call someone but paused."Mr... Mr. Larson?"Mr. Larson, what are you..."Once Jack saw who the visitor was, he immediately came forward with a smile, but he had a confused look in his eyes.Behind him, Mr. Lowe's eyes widened slightly as he quickly smiled.However, he did not come forward to speak.With his position, he did not even deserve to talk to him.It was Homer Larson.With Larson Pharmaceuticals' reputation in River City, no one could approach them easily.Let alone Mr. Lowe."Mr. Tomme, I have a question."Do you have any other business than the one publicly known?"I just heard Mr. Tomme say..."Homer said indifferently with an unfriendly look on his face.The attitude confused Jack.'Something's wrong...'Homer and Jack were not strangers.They both led famous companies in River City, so they had met each other many times.T
