"Let go of me!"

Willow got away from Sean's hand as tears began to escape her eyes again.

"I don't want to live like this anymore! I've had enough!

"No one understands me. Everyone laughs at me. I'm a laughingstock to everyone!"

Willow's emotions, which had been pent up for two years, exploded at this moment.

"Give me some time.

"Everything will change.

"I can give you everything you want."

Sean was silent for a few seconds before speaking seriously.

"We'll talk about this after you can stand on your feet."

Willow wiped away her tears and turned to run into the distance.

Sean slowly withdrew his gaze and looked at the lake in front of him.

"I will stand up.

"Everything will change too."

...

At the same time.

In a business club in River City.

"Master Clark, you must do something about Old Master's illness.

"The Larson family might be a medical family, but... we can't cure ourselves.

"Old Master's disease is also very rare and difficult. We're really at our wit's end!"

Homer Larson looked at Hugh with pleading eyes.

"Mr. Larson, why ask me for help?

"River City has a miracle doctor here. Won't you ask them?"

Hugh waved his hand slightly. His tone was somewhat resigned.

"Miracle doctor? In River City?"

Homer froze and asked a little hesitantly.

"Yes! I had no idea that a miracle doctor like that is in this little River City.

"I would have met him if I hadn't had to leave in a hurry."

Hugh nodded his head, and his tone was firm.

"Who is it? Who is the miracle doctor?"

Homer asked, sitting up straight.

"The man who brought this pill."

Hugh slowly took out a small wooden box containing the crushed pill.

"This..."

"Master Clark, you don't know this, but the Quinn family took in a catatonic cripple out of nowhere two years ago.

"I heard that he is engaged to Willow, the heiress of the Quinn family, so he stayed with the Quinn family.

"This pill is from him. What... kind of doctor could he be?"

Homer could not believe that a cripple in a wheelchair could be some miracle doctor.

"Do you know what this pill represents?

"Even if he wasn't a miracle doctor, he was definitely close to a miracle doctor.

"There are very few people in the world who can come up with such a pill.

"That's all I have to say, Mr. Larson. You can consider it on your own."

Hugh got up and left after he finished speaking.

Homer was silent for a long time, but he eventually made a phone call.

"Get the car ready! I'm going to Quinn Residence."

Homer wanted to try after all.

...

After sitting by the River City lakeside for a long time, Sean propelled his wheelchair and headed home alone.

This place was only a few hundred meters from Willow's home.

It was why Willow dared to leave Sean here alone.

"You've looked after him for two years! You've done enough in every way!"

Sean had just returned to the yard gate when he heard Fion's voice from inside.

"I know."

Willow's slightly stubborn voice followed.

"What do you know?

"Why won't you leave him if you know?

"Let me tell you. I, Fion Wilson, will never have a cripple for a son-in-law!

"He's even a cripple who's poor and culturally blank!"

Fion yelled at Willow with one hand on her waist.

"It's not like I'm hell-bent on marrying him. I just want to take care of him.

"Even if he's not engaged to me, his disability is the result of defending the country.

"For that alone, I should take care of him."

Willow's tone of voice could not be more firm.

"He's now crippled in both legs and unable to take care of himself.

"Aren't you just telling me to let him get killed by kicking him out?

"I absolutely disagree!"

Willow clenched her teeth and still refused to agree to Fion's request.

"It's not up to you!

"It's what the Quinn family and Old Madam want!

"He's been living off the Quinn family for two years. He doesn't have to pay us anything, but he has to leave now that he's regained his senses!

"The Quinn family even took care of him for two years. How dare he give such a piece of garbage? I was humiliated. He might as well not have given anything!"

Fion's voice grew angrier and louder as she spoke.

"I don't want to argue with you!

"He's still outside. I'm going to fetch him."

Willow was silent for a moment. Then she walked straight out the gate.

Whoosh!

As soon as she opened the gate, Willow and Sean met each other's gaze.

"You..." Willow immediately froze.

Sean was keenly aware that Willow slowly let out a long sigh of relief the moment she saw him.

She was worried about Sean.

"You veg, how dare you come back?

"Do you realize that the thing you gave was poison?

"Mr. Homer Larson of Larson Pharmaceuticals, who comes from a medical family, knew at a glance that it was poison!"

Fion scolded as she pointed at Sean's nose with one hand on her waist.

"That means he has no eye for good things either."

Sean glanced at Fion and said indifferently.

Willow was a little surprised to hear this. Of course, she knew how popular Larson Pharmaceuticals was in River City.

Even Homer said it was poison, so it must be true!

"Sean, how could you?"

Willow's beautiful eyes were full of shock and disappointment.

"I didn't."

Sean frowned.

"Hmph! He has evil intentions.

"Perhaps he will poison me and kill me. It's better to get rid of him as soon as possible."

Fion grunted coldly. She was willing to tell a lie to kick Sean out.

"Larson Pharmaceuticals can't be wrong.

"Sean, you disappoint me.

"Even if Grandma was wrong, you can't do that.

"You! You should leave!"

Willow clenched her teeth and turned around after saying that.

"Are you kicking me out?"

Sean sighed and asked as she looked at Willow.

"What you did is disappointing."

Willow said through clenched teeth as she had her back to Sean.

Fion stopped talking and looked at Sean smugly.

She was finally getting rid of this vegetable.

"Do you know I stayed in River City for you?

"I might not come back after leaving."

Sean said earnestly as he looked at Willow.

"Leave! Leave!"

Willow had her back was to Sean while her body shook.

After two years together, Willow still had some feelings for Sean, even if he was only a vegetable.

However, Sean tried to kill her grandmother with poison.

Willow would not tolerate this!

Honk honk! Honk honk!

Just then, two car honks rang in the distance.

A white Bentley was followed by two Panameras.

The three luxury cars were moving fast, heading straight for Quinn Residence.

Click!

The car door opened, and no less than ten bodyguards in black stepped out of the car.

"Mr. Lennon, we came to speak to you!"

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

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. "Feel free to take a look."Since they were Sean's

    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
