"Sean has the last name Lennon too. I wonder if he had anything to do with that man..."

As soon as Quill said this, Fion laughed with disdain.

"If Sean has anything to do with someone like that, I, Fion Wilson, will get on my knees and beg him to be the son-in-law of the Quinn family!"

Fion's face was disdainful, and her tone was sarcastic.

"Then what position did he hold in the army? I don't think he's that simple."

As the young master of the Zimmer family, Quill thought things more thoroughly than Fion.

"Position?"

"If he retired after being enlisted for a few years, he must have more than one hundred thousand dollars in retirement pay."

"Well, all he has are old clothes, an old sword, and an old suitcase. The bank card inside had no money either."

"I also saw a box of pins. I wonder if he was a cook in the army?"

"Tell me, what could he be?"

After Fion said this, Quill was stunned for a moment before laughing out loud.

"Yeah. No matter how lowly he was, he must at most had some retirement pay!

"He has nothing. I guess he's just a pig farmer. I'm just overthinking things."

Quill was immediately relieved and laughed.

"Don't worry. He can't do anything even if he has recovered.

"I'll find a way to kick him out. Then you can come to Quinn Residence and propose."

Fion glanced at Quill and immediately said what Quill wanted to do the most.

"Okay! Okay!"

Quill rubbed his hands together in excitement and asked, "So what do we do next?"

"Willow is only engaged to him. They didn't get married, so they're not husband and wife.

"Willow took him in despite everyone's objections because she felt sorry for him. Now that he has recovered, we can no longer keep him in the Quinn family.

"I'll bring it up in front of all the members of the Quinn family at Old Madam Quinn's birthday in two days. Willow will have to say yes no matter what."

Fion snorted coldly. Her tone was very confident.

"Okay! I will wait for the good news, Aunt Fion. Hehe."

Quill rubbed his palms together, his face beaming with excitement.

Fion was very pleased with Quill, of course.

The Zimmer family, to which Quill belonged, was extremely famous in the whole River City.

If they could get connections to the Zimmer family, the Quinn family would surely regain their former glory.

She, Fion Wilson, would be the hero of the Quinn family with the greatest contribution.

...

Two days later.

River City Dragon Splendour Hotel.

"God bless the Quinn family. May we continue to flourish for centuries!"

All the Quinn family were gathered in an upscale private room.

Today was Old Madam Quinn's seventieth birthday, and everyone in the Quinn family had come to the birthday party.

Besides the Quinn family, some of the most influential families in River City were here too.

The Quinn family had been in decline and became a third-rate family since Levi's death.

However, even a scrawny camel was bigger than a horse, and they were still respected.

Old Madam Quinn sat at the main table, with several tables around her filled with people.

"Grandma, I'm sorry we're late..."

Just then, the private room door opened, and Willow wheeled Sean in.

Old Madam Quinn glanced at Willow but did not answer.

"Yo, you remembered to come."

"I thought someone had forgotten Grandma's birthday."

Willow's cousin Faye Quinn rolled her eyes.

Faye was jealous of Willow's beauty and grew up hating her.

"Haha, we mustn't forget our roots."

"I think some people have forgotten their roots, don't they? Without grandma, we wouldn't be here."

Simon Quinn, a member of the Quinn family, also curled his lips.

All of a sudden, everyone in the Quinn family started discussing. They were all criticizing Willow.

Except for Willow's parents and Old Madam Quinn, everyone else was criticizing her.

Even though some of River City's rich and influential families were present as well, they did not care.

The Quinn family had been the joke of River City ever since they took in Sean, a crippled and foolish loser, two years ago.

It was all because of Sean.

"Grandma, Sean has trouble moving around, so we took some time..." Willow explained gently.

"Have a seat."

Old Madam Quinn said lightly as she interrupted her with a wave of her hand.

"We weren't waiting for you anyway."

Faye added a whisper as she touched the diamante on her manicure.

Willow lowered her head slightly and wheeled Sean inside.

"I just saw. Did you bring the veg here too?"

As if they had just seen Sean, everyone in the Quinn family asked in surprise.

"The Quinn family is here for Grandma's birthday today, and he can't eat by himself at home."

Willow's face turned a little red. She had no idea whether she should stand or sit. It was as if she had become a clown to everyone.

"Are you out of your mind?"

Fion got up from the seat nearby and walked over to Willow and asked in a whisper.

"Haven't you disgraced our family enough? How dare you bring him here?

"It's Old Madam's birthday today, and many of River City's influential families are here. What are you up to?"

Fion scolded Willow under her breath.

Sean watched everything from his wheelchair.

Everyone here, whether from the Quinn family or the influential families in River City...

They were looking condescendingly at Willow and Sean.

"Haha. He's just a f*cking veg."

Simon curled his lip and sneered.

People at several tables burst into laughter.

Fion blushed harder while Willow was battered like a boat in a storm.

"The Quinn family was once one of the prestigious families of River City.

"There's a reason they're now a third-rate family."

Suddenly, a voice rang slowly.

    Three cars parked in front of Quinn Residence.Soon, one after another bodyguards in black stepped out of the car.All the bodyguards greeted Sean respectfully.Fion was stunned.Willow froze.What was going on?Who were... these people?Bentley and Panamera were luxury cars!These people were also respectfully calling Sean, Mr. Lennon.It surprised Willow and Fion.How did a crippled loser like Sean know a rich guy like that?Even Sean was a little confused.He did not know anyone in River City."Mr. Lennon, I'm Homer Larson of Larson Pharmaceuticals.Just then, Homer stepped out of the car and said to Sean with a smile."I'm here to invite you to my house to discuss something.""Hsss!"Willow gasped.Larson Pharmaceuticals was well known in River City.Homer was a board member of Larson Pharmaceuticals, which made his status even loftier.At least, the Quinn family was nothing compared to Larson Pharmaceuticals.'But Homer came to invite Sean himself?'Also, did

You'll surely enter that legendary realm one day!" Adam exclaimed.He had practiced diligently day after day for decades, yet he was only a Beginner Great Grandmaster. Even so, he was one of the most talented martial artists among several generations of Greendom Chapel members. However, that talent was as different as night and day compared to Sean.Sean was now only in his 20s, yet he already possessed the strength to rival the supreme priest who had passed away.There were no other people as strong as Sean in the entire Dragon Kingdom."Alright, stop flattering me. I'll have someone transfer 500 million to you later. You can use it to improve Greendom Chapel's current situation. When the time comes, I'll accompany you to meet that man from Melode Cathedral," Sean said with a smile as he sh

    "Mr. Lennon, you also know how strong that old priest is. We Catholics only have the supreme priest who could rival him. Now that the supreme priest has passed away, that old priest has become even more arrogant..." Sean nodded slightly and sighed before expressing his regret. "It's a pity about the supreme priest.""Human life has its limitations. The path of martial arts is long and arduous. Few people in history have been able to reach the legendary Transcendence Realm." Adam sighed as well. He had already reached Great Grandmaster Realm that countless martial artists dreamed of. Even so, there were opponents he could not defeat and problems he could not solve."Mr. Lennon, since you're willing to leave that calligraphy in Greendom Chapel, you must have some history with Greendom Chapel. I wonder if you can tell me," Adam finally said after a moment of silence.Adam was the former chaplain of Greendom Chapel, but he had gone into seclusion to further advance himself after stepp

    A Christian refers to a follower of Jesus Christ who might be a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, or follower of another branch of the religion. A Catholic was a Christian who followed the Catholic religion transmitted through the succession of Popes, who were leaders of the Catholic church. Thus, All Roman Catholics were Christian, but not all Christians were Roman Catholic. The difference in beliefs had put the two in conflict."Could it be that their conflict has reignited? Didn't a Catholic priest warn those donkeys?" Sean asked with a frown.Adam nodded slightly and sighed before slowly replying, "It's just as you said. After the passing of Tiger Mountain's supreme priest, Christians often gave us Catholics a hard time. Now, not only are chaplains from all over Dragon Kingdom affected, but even Greendom Chapel has gotten into this situation."Most chaplains and churches relied on donations from their followers for their income. Once they lost this source of income, chaplains and

    Meanwhile, a daunting aura rose from the old chaplain.The Brown brothers’ expressions instantly changed, even being forced back three steps by the pressure from the old chaplain before barely stopping.Willow's eyes filled with panic. She felt like she had encountered a mortal enemy and had her life on the line.Sean's gaze focused before he immediately reached out to hold Willow."Cut that intimidating aura out. Who are you trying to scare?" Sean snapped as he looked at the old chaplain.However, the old chaplain's kind demeanor changed. He stared solemnly at Sean and asked, "I'm asking who you are.""Who am I? Is my calligraphy in Greendom Chapel gone?" Sean replied indifferently.The old chaplain froze in place as if struck by lightning."What? The old chaplain is from Greendom Chapel? How is that possible… Greendom Chapel is a nationally renowned holy place. H-How could one of their chaplains be selling counterfeit goods here?" Willow exclaimed. Her hands covered her mouth

    The smile on the old chaplain's face instantly froze. He looked awkwardly at Sean and stammered, "L-Look at my age. How could I engage in deceitful acts? God... I've lived a righteous life. I didn't expect to be so misunderstood in my twilight years..."Seeing the old chaplain's pitiful expression, Willow could not help but feel sorry for him.However, Sean looked disdainfully at the old chaplain before saying with a smile, "Sir, perhaps being an actor suits you better than being a chaplain."The old chaplain's acting skills were impeccable. He might even win a prize if he attended some award ceremony. With his white beard and the slightly worn-out robe that had turned somewhat faded, others might indeed mistake Sean for misunderstanding the old chaplain."Sir, you can't say such things! I've lived an honest life. You can't just tarnish my reputation!" The old chaplain pleaded earnestly, looking at Sean.Ignoring the old chaplain, Sean picked up a vase from the stall before him. W

At least we won't end up not knowing where our company is in the future."Daniel and his brothers immediately nodded.Then, the group continued to stroll through Antiques Street. However, Antiques Street had been around for so many years, and each stall was run by shrewd peddlers, who made it increasingly difficult to find hidden treasures.Even with Sean's keen eye, he had not come across a genuine antique after strolling through Antiques Street for so long. All he saw were counterfeit antiques that looked authentic.After another ten minutes or so, Sean suddenly stopped in his tracks.Not far away, an old man with white hair in a black robe opened up a large bag of items and placed the items on the ground. He then took out a small sto

    Willow held Sean's arm, her face filled with happiness.Sean scanned the surroundings of the street stalls with a smile, searching for genuine antiques. The Brown brothers quietly followed Sean. With the Brown brothers standing behind Sean like bodyguards, the street peddlers who had heard about suckers in Antiques Street were now hesitant to make any sudden moves."Mr. Lennon, I heard this place is full of scammers. You wouldn't want to ruin your reputation here," Daniel reminded with a chuckle.Sean glanced at him and replied flatly, "Come on. Would my reputation be ruined in such a small place? Check out the two little trinkets Willow bought for only 500 dollars. If we auction them off, I can make at least 20 million dollars!"Daniel and his brothers paused and turned to look at the hairpin and the ring Willow was holding.Seeing the three men interested in the items, Willow stopped and handed the hairpin and ring to Daniel.

    It was normal to pay others for their service. Sean only gave them 10 thousand dollars when he had made 20 million dollars a while ago. Ten thousand was just a drop in the bucket. Daniel and his brothers swiftly made their way through Antiques Street, soon spotting Sean and Willow. Sensing someone approaching, Sean immediately turned around to look. Sean smiled when he saw the Brown brothers."Mr. Lennon! Mrs. Lennon!" Daniel and his brothers greeted respectfully when they arrived before Sean and Willow. Willow felt slightly embarrassed at being called "Mrs. Lennon" and only nodded slightly before looking elsewhere. Sean nodded with a smile. Fortunately, this part of Antiques Street was relatively isolated with few people around. Otherwise, Daniel and his brothers' sudden appearance would attract attention."Mr. Lennon, you spotted us from so far away. Your abilities are admirable!" Daniel lamented.Sean shook his head with a smile and said flatly, "Martial arts is all a

Mr. Lennon also instructed us to watch over these three guys here," Bobby answered with a smile, not mentioning that they were hired earlier to mess with Sean for 3 thousand dollars.The four men standing before them were burly and not easy to mess with. Bobby would not foolishly tell them he had tried to trouble Sean."Is that so? How can we be sure you're not associated with these two?" Daniel asked hostilely as he raised his eyebrows skeptically.Bobby and his henchmen's expressions immediately changed, fear evident in their eyes. Bobby quickly pulled out his phone, showed the transaction record of Sean's payment, and said, "Look, look! This is the record of the money Mr. Lennon just wired me!"Zander glanced at it, confirming the identities of the three men in front of him as the same ones Sean had mentioned on the phone."I'll take these two back to the company. You three can find Mr. Lennon and help him out with any troubles," Zander said solemnly.Dan
