Chapter 1188
“Really?”
Sean was a little surprised.
He had one hundred thousand in his personal guard in the Northwest Army back then.
They took orders from no one but Sean.
Zander was their leader.
However, Sean had no idea that so many of those people were from Joules Town.
“Yes, Commander.
“As you know, a great event took place in Joules Town.
“So the men in Joules Town have a deep hatred of invaders.
“Many young men enlisted in the army immediately as soon as they came of age.”
Zander nodded and explained with a smile.
“In that case, this is fate.”
Sean smiled and nodded at that.
“Fate? What fate?”
Zander was a little confused.
“I’m from Joules Town.”
Sean was silent for two seconds but told the truth anyway.
“What?”
Zander was stunned. It was the first time he had heard of it.
“No way. How is that possible? How can you also be from Joules Town?
“What a coincidence.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZander thought it was too much of a coincidence.
Sean was going to Joules Town to meet his adoptive father’s friend. It was a bit of a coincidence that
he was also from Joules Town.
“Coincidence?
“My adoptive father visited his friend in Joules Town.
“And he coincidentally met me at the orphanage and brought me to the Northwest Army.”
Sean smiled and answered casually.
“Ah… I see. Ahem…”
Zander came to himself and coughed to hide his embarrassment.
“Speaking of which, I haven’t been back for more than ten years.”
Sean sighed and thought about all the people he had met when he was younger and wondered if they
were all right.
He had no idea if the orphanage was still around.
“Commander, do you want to go back and check it out?”
Zander asked cautiously after a pause.
“No.”
Sean shook his head slightly.
He would not have waited until now if he wanted to go back.
However, he had no intention of going back.
After all, no one wanted to relive their painful past.
It was unspeakably bitter, especially for a child who grew up in an orphanage.
“But the orphanage raised you…”
Zander knew Sean was a man of gratitude.
How Sean had repaid Willow for taking of him for the past two years was the best example.
Therefore, he thought Sean was trying to avoid something. Maybe he only did not want to talk about his
sad past.
After all, no one wanted to be an orphan.
“Well…
“Let me take care of everything first.
“If we pass by, I’ll leave some money for the orphanage before we leave.”
Sean was silent for a few seconds before nodding after all.
“Yes!”
Zander answered and said no more.
Zander returned to his place after sending Sean back.
Now that he knew where they were going, he had a lot of work to do.
He needed to look into Joules Town’s forces and whether Blaze had eyes over there. Besides that,
Sean and Zander would not leave River City in any form of public transportation.
Instead, they would drive themselves so they would not leave any traces on the traffic routes.
Blaze could not track where they went even if he wanted to.
Sean spent all of his remaining time in River City with Willow.
Sean’s bedroom.
Willow was lying on her side beside Sean, looking at him quietly with her beautiful eyes wide open.
Neither of them spoke, and the room was silent.
However, they seemed to know each other’s thoughts even without speaking.
Everything was self–explanatory
Sean had no other thoughts when he had a beautiful woman in his arms.

Their relationship seemed to have long gone beyond the romantic love between men and women.
They were more like family, depending on each other.
“Don’t tell me when you leave tomorrow.”
Willow reached out her hand and stroked the side of Sean’s face.
“Okay.”
Sean nodded gently.
“But you must tell me when you come back. I’ll be sure to pick you up.”
Willow added quickly.
“Okay.”
Sean nodded again. He understood how Willow felt.
It was because he hated parting himself.
However, he knew that sometimes a temporary separation was for a better reunion.
He also knew that it was comfortable to stay in your comfort zone.
However, others needed to pay their debt.
His loyal comrades who Blaze had killed could not have shed their blood in vain.
He would ensure that Blaze would pay back twice as much for all the humiliation he had suffered.
He was no man if he did not get his revenge.
Therefore, he would proceed with it.
“I never asked you for anything.
“I want something this time.”
Willow looked at Sean and spoke seriously.
“Go on.”
Sean nodded immediately.
“I’ll wait for you to come back and marry me.
“Marry me officially.”
Willow looked at Sean and said slowly.
