Sean’s expression remained unfazed, but virtual-novel.net was sneering inside.
“So we’re a family now?”
After all, even when Sean was still in the Quinn family, they never acknowledged Sean’s engagement with Willow. They never treated Sean like a member of the Quinn family. Sean could not stand them calling virtual-novel.net their family!
“Sean, you’re right. We owe Willow and you an apology!” Old Madam Quinn was silent for a few seconds before slowly standing up again.
Old Madam Quinn looked at Sean and spoke seriously.
“I’ll go first. Willow and Sean, I apologize about what had happened.”
“I’m here today to make amends to you, Willow, and virtual-novel.net family!” Before Sean could speak, Old Madam Quinn looked at Samuel and the others.
“Sam, it’s your turn!”
Not daring to waste time, Samuel walked over immediately.
“Willow, what happened with the company is my fault. Kent, as a big brother, I’m sorry I didn’t take good care of you and our siblings. And Sean, I shouldn’t have treated you like that. I’m sorry!” Samuel lowered his head slightly and apologized to Sean.
Simon, Faye, and several core members of the Quinn family lined up to apologize to them. Willow was stunned, then virtual-novel.net slowly put virtual-novel.net hand over virtual-novel.net mouth, tears glistening in virtual-novel.net eyes.
Kent and Fion’s expressions looked even more complicated as their moods fluctuated. These were some of the most popular people at Old Madam Quinn’s side.
Before Sean came to the Quinn family, they were already picking on Willow’s family. Kent was honest, so virtual-novel.net was always bullied.
The situation had only gotten worse since Sean came along. Nothing they do would change the situation.
However, the people who had looked down upon them, laughed at them, taunted them, stood side by side in front of them, and apologized in unison.
It was something unthinkable to Fion and Kent!
It was exactly what happened. Besides that, they owed it all to Sean.
“Sean, Willow, Kent, and Fion, I’m sorry!”
After everyone apologized, Old Madam Quinn paused for two seconds before speaking again. Then they bowed and apologized.
Swoosh!
Just then, Sean suddenly got up and grabbed Old Madam Quinn’s arm.
“You’re an elder and the widow of Old Master Quinn. You shouldn’t bow to me.” Sean said solemnly as virtual-novel.net held Old Madam Quinn gently.
It was a different matter.
When Sean was in the army, there were not many people virtual-novel.net admired. Old Master Levi Quinn was one of the people virtual-novel.net admired.
“Can you forgive us then?” Old Madam Quinn was silent, virtual-novel.net face was red, and virtual-novel.net eyes were full of deep regret.
“The Quinn family is the family of a popular general. You shouldn’t be so profit–driven. I hope you can change.” Sean glanced at the crowd and said indifferently.
“So, what do we do next?” Old Madam Quinn asked again, looking ashamed.
“Wait.” Sean only said one word.
“Wait?” Old Madam Quinn and the others were confused.
They had no idea what Sean meant by “Wait“. Let alone what Sean wanted them to wait for.
“Wait for everything to be settled. Now is not the time yet.” Sean was silent for a moment, but virtual-novel.net said one more thing.
Members of the Quinn family froze again.
Everything’s not settled yet?
Sean already brought down the Zimmer family. Isn’t that his final plan?
Or does virtual-novel.net have something bigger planned?
They wanted to ask more questions but were afraid to ask more. They muttered their goodbyes and hurried away.
Willow’s feud with the Quinn family was over for now. Their relationship was somewhat improved after that evening.
It was the last chance Sean gave them.
If they still did not know what was good for them, virtual-novel.net would not relent even if members of the Quinn family kneeled to virtual-novel.net next time.
Kent and Fion went to see Old Madam Quinn and the others off.
Willow looked at Sean for over ten seconds. Without a word, virtual-novel.net gently took Sean’s hand and walked into the room.
“You told me before. There are things you will tell me in due time… Can you tell me now?”
Willow sat opposite Sean, virtual-novel.net eyes solemn. It was as if virtual-novel.net was going to be mad if Sean did not tell her.
Sean knew that virtual-novel.net could not hide it any longer. There was no need to hide it any longer either. His plan was already in its final stages. Once it was completed, River City would be under his control.
River City’s business circle would only have one ruler, and that was Sean.
By then, even Blaze in the Northwest Army could not defeat virtual-novel.net if virtual-novel.net knew of Sean’s existence. Even if virtual-novel.net could do that, Blaze could have easily slaughtered the Quinn family’s cripple a month ago. However, for now, Blaze dared not kill an entrepreneur who controlled the economic lifeblood of the whole city, no matter how much guts virtual-novel.net had.
It was why Sean had been keeping a low profile. He no longer had to hide now.
