Fabian was relieved to hear this, and virtual-novel.net had a look of relief on his face. “Mr. Lennon, why don’t you stay at Winters Residence tonight?”
Sean nodded at that.

It was late at night, and the lights that lit up Winters Residence gradually faded. However, the light in Fabian’s study stayed on.
Sean was sitting in his study with Fabian.
“Mr. Lennon, aren’t you curious why these people aggressively attacked Winters Residence?” Fabian asked meaningfully.
Sean smiled and shook his head, saying, “Mr. Winters, I’m the owner of Optimus Security Services, and you’re my client. You paid me, so I’m going to complete the task you gave me. I’m not interested in knowing the rest.”
Even though Blaze was involved, Sean did not bother to ask.
Fabian was only the mayor of Ocean City. Although virtual-novel.net was powerful in Ocean City, virtual-novel.net was a nobody compared to the whole country. With his influence, virtual-novel.net probably had no idea what Blaze was scheming.
Asking virtual-novel.net would be a waste of time, so Sean might as well ask nothing. All secrets would be revealed when virtual-novel.net met Blaze eventually.
“Mr. Lennon, you’re smart!” Fabian had a self-deprecating expression before saying with a wry smile, “I’m not as smart as you, Mr. Lennon… Since you’re not interested, forget about it.”
“I’ve had the room cleaned. You can rest, Mr. Lennon. I’ll transfer 200 million to your account tomorrow.”
Sean only smiled and nodded. He did not ask Fabian why virtual-novel.net had paid 60 million more. Money did not matter and was only a formality to people of their status.
Fabian led Sean to a room at Winters Residence.
Fabian left without further delay.
The night was silent until the next morning.

Sean had woken up early and was now standing in Winters Residence.
“You’re up early, Mr. Lennon.” Fabian’s voice came from behind.
Sean laughed and said, “I got used to it. I can’t sleep too late…”
“Haha. That’s a good habit, Mr. Lennon.” Fabian smiled before asking solemnly, “Mr. Lennon, can you really heal the disfigurement on Cynthia’s face?”
Cynthia was only Fabian’s adoptive daughter in name, but anyone would have feelings for a pet after so many years, let alone a living person.
“Naturally. I’ll start treating Cynthia soon,” Sean replied with a laugh.
The wounds on Cynthia’s face were vicious, but they only cut the skin, not the underlying muscles, so it was not difficult to heal. However, that only applied to Sean. No hospital in the country could guarantee Cynthia’s recovery.
Hearing Sean’s answer, Fabian smiled. “I’ll thank Mr. Lennon on behalf of Cynthia. I’ll wire another 50 million into your account as payment for your hard work.”
Sean did not refuse Fabian. Fabian would owe virtual-novel.net a favor if virtual-novel.net did not accept the 50 million. If virtual-novel.net accepted the money, the favor Fabian owed virtual-novel.net would not be as difficult to return as before.
After having breakfast with Fabian, Sean met Cynthia in the study.
Cynthia was still wearing the mask, and virtual-novel.net eyes had lost their previous glow.
“Mr. Lennon…”
