Chapter 333 “Then where did Sean get the money?”

Fion looked back at Sean when she heard that.

“Don‘t tell me it‘s yours. I don‘t believe you.”

Fion interrupted before Sean could speak.

“From the time you bought the cars and now this, you‘ve probably spent... tens of millions of dollars!

“Even if you knew Mr. Larson of Larson Pharmaceuticals, there‘s no way he would lend you that much

money.

“So where did the money come from?”

Fion gently placed the real estate purchasing agreement on the table with a questioning tone.

“It‘s indeed my own money.” Sean shook his head helplessly, not knowing how to explain it. It was

mainly because everyone‘s image of Sean was a penniless cripple. Even though he had regained his

senses, he was still a cripple. He had no identity, connections, or background in River City. How could

someone like that be able to spend tens of millions of dollars casually? Anyone would think the money

was illegal. “Tell me where you got the money? “What exactly did you do before?” Fion fired away

without hiding anything. “I was in the army. You know that. “You could say... I‘ve gotten my money from

them.” Sean did not want to explain too much but said a little more when he saw the anticipation in

Willow‘s eyes. “What kind of position in the army could get you tens of millions of dollars? “Do you take

me for a fool? Joanne‘s son was in the army for seven years, and I heard he managed to get a

position.

“He only got a retirement fee of three hundred thousand dollars when he retired from the army.

“You‘re young, so you probably spent two or three years in the army, tops. How could they give you a

retirement fee of tens of millions of dollars?

“Do you think you‘re a general?”

The more Fion listened, the less she believed it.

“It‘s just tens of millions of dollars...”

Sean shook his head slightly, feeling disdainful.

He was once a nine–star commander. In that position, money was only a string of numbers to him.

Even if he did not have the supreme black card, money was nothing to him. “I have millions of brothers.

Each of them gave me a hundred dollars from his salary.

“It‘s hundreds of millions of dollars in total.”

Sean seemed to be talking to Fion but also to himself. Hearing Sean‘s words, Fion and the rest looked

at each other, slightly confused. ‘Why is Sean talking nonsense again?‘ ‘Millions of brothers? Hundreds

of millions of dollars? Has he lost his mind?‘

“Forget it, don‘t play dumb either. “I‘m just going to tell you this. If the money‘s illegal or you borrowed

them... “Then I‘m not gonna let you stay in the Quinn family and trouble Willow. Fix whatever you‘ve

done yourself!” Fion looked at Sean sternly, not joking at all. Sean nodded noncommittally.

He was catatonic for two years and had no choice but to trouble Willow.

However, he could not bring himself to keep troubling this kind girl, who had done so much for him.

“Alright, Mom, Sean isn‘t like that.”

Willow spoke.

“Okay.”

Fion replied in acknowledgment and said, “Let‘s make dinner.” Willow grinned and immediately

wheeled Sean toward the kitchen. “Wait!

Fion stopped them again suddenly. “What‘s the matter, Mom?” Willow turned around in resignation. “...

I‘m in a good mood today, so you can take a break.” Fion put the real estate purchase agreement

away, snorted coldly, and stepped toward the kitchen.

“Oh?”

Kent froze and uttered in surprise.

Sean and Willow could not help freezing slightly too.

“Did the sun rise in the west today?”

Kent touched the back of his head, feeling as if he was dreaming. It had been two years since Sean

joined their family, and Fion had never even set foot in the kitchen, let alone cook. Willow did all the

cooking, dishes, and cleaning. They could afford a maid at first, but then all of Willow‘s salary went to

Sean‘s medical treatments.

Money was getting so tight that they could not even afford a maid.

“Old Quinn, get your butt in here now if you want to eat my cooking!”

Fion blushed and shouted as she rolled her sleeves up.

“Ahem. Of course, I wanna eat. Here, I‘ll help you.”

Kent immediately got up and followed Fion timidly. “Hmph!”

Satisfied, Fion turned and entered the kitchen.

Sean and Willow in the living room got to relax today.

“Sean, sometimes my mother‘s bark is worse than her bite.

“Parents tend to worry about their children. I‘m her daughter after all. She doesn‘t want to see me

suffer, so...”

There was a note of resignation in Willow‘s voice.

Her biological parents were on one hand, while Sean, whom she was trying to take good care of, was

another case.

It was this stuck–in–the–middle situation that was the most difficult.

“I understand.

“That‘s why I‘m willing to give her a chance again and again.”

Sean nodded gently. He would not have to accommodate anyone if it were not for Willow.

It was only the Quinn family. Even if Sean did not use Zander, his current connections in River City

could destroy the Quinn family.

However, Willow was still a member of the Quinn family after all. Besides, Old Master Levi Quinn died

for his country and was worthy of respect. It was why Sean spared the Quinn family. Otherwise, he

could easily crush the Quinn family of River City. “You did suffer to take care of me.” Sean sighed

gently and looked earnestly at Willow.
