Chapter 967
"Thanks..."
With a gentle sigh, Leah gave up and slowly turned away, pulling the door shut.
Candy was happy that she got her way. She giggled as she lay in bed.
"Aunt Willow, why aren't you dressed?"
Candy got under the covers and asked with a serious face.
"I... I'm hot..."
Willow's face was red as she quickly put on Sean's shirt.
"Aunt, why are you so big here?
"It's just like Mom's but bigger.
"Why don't Uncle Sean have them?"
Candy pressed Willow's breasts again, looking curious.
"Well...
"Uncle Sean is a boy. Boys don't have them."
Willow blushed as Sean gloated.
"I'm a girl. Why don't I have them?"
Candy touched her chest and asked again with widened eyes.
"Shh... Shh!’."
Flustered, Willow put her hand over Candy's tiny mouth.
Sean and Willow looked at each other, shook their heads in helplessness, and laughed.
"Never mind. We have all the time in the world."
Willow could not help laughing when Sean said that.
Candy unwittingly sabotaged the decision Willow took a lot of courage to make.
The next day.
Not long after Sean got out of bed, he got a call from Zander.
"Commander, Jen-Bond Holdings is up to something new."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSean immediately sobered up when Zander said this.
"What is it?"
Sean asked solemnly as he stepped to the balcony.
Without wasting time, Zander immediately reported everything James did to Sean.
James declared he was hosting a wine party in the name of Jen- Bond Holdings' River City branch this
morning.
He invited River City's high society, affluent families, and some government officials.
In particular, the company directors affected by the Zimmer family's financing some time ago were also
invited.
"They don't seem to be making connections by making it such a big deal!"
Sean frowned slightly at that.
"Commander, Reach For Will Group and Lennon Group received invitations too.
"I think there's a good chance this party is aimed at us."
Zander pondered for two seconds before telling the truth.
"They invited us?"
Sean was stunned for a moment before coming to himself.
"You're right.
"This party is aimed at us."
Sean sneered after thinking for a while.
"Commander, is James that powerful?
"There are so many people in River City. They can't all be on his side."
Zander paused for a moment. Then he thought it was a bit unrealistic.
"What if they could get everyone to side with them?"
Sean shook his head slowly, his tone somewhat meaningful.
"What do you mean?"
Zander came to himself.
"It looks like we can't hide the fact that we transferred the Zimmer
family's money."
Sean loosened his collar and shared his speculation.
"Well..."
Zander was shocked but nodded gently.
With Jen-Bond Holdings' connections and power, it did not seem hard to figure it out.
"Should we go or not?"
Zander said quietly after a few seconds of silence.
"Yes, of course.
"We're not only going but also making a grand entrance.
"Get ready. I'll talk to you this afternoon."
Sean saw Willow coming and immediately said to the phone.
"Yes."
Zander answered and hung up.
"Sean, what is it?"
Willow asked softly as she helped Sean fix his collar.
She did it naturally. After all, she had taken care of Sean for two years.
Besides, there was no real progress between them after last night.
However, their relationship and affection had grown.
"It's nothing. Jen-Bond Holdings is looking for trouble again."
Sean smiled and shook his head, seemingly unconcerned.
"Alright, Leah made breakfast. Come and eat."
Willow took Sean's hand and walked toward the dining table.
At the dining table, Candy had washed her hands and sat quietly waiting for Sean and Willow.
"Sean, Willow, sorry to bother you last night..."
When Leah saw Sean coming, she got up quickly and said shyly.
"It's okay. Candy is our daughter too!
"Leah, you're making yourself a stranger by saying that."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWillow shook her head and pushed Leah back into the chair.
Sean also smiled and nodded as he sat with Candy.
Leah was a good cook.
The food looked and smelled delicious. It had balanced nutrition too.
"By the way, Leah, you said last night there was an emergency at the cosmetics company. What was
it?"
Sean suddenly recalled as he ate.
"It's nothing..."
Leah froze for a moment, a little embarrassed to speak.
"You're running short on money, don't you?"
Sean immediately figured it out and asked.
Chloe was in charge, but since Chloe left, Zander and the rest had been so busy that they neglected
them.
"Uhh... We have enough..."
Leah shook her head and waved her hand.
Their cosmetics company was a little strapped for cash.
After all, they had to purchase many things when setting up a new company. The initial startup costs
were not cheap.
However, Leah and Willow knew Sean was going through some tough times.
He would not be able to afford it.
Smack!
Sean took out a bank card and put it on the dining table without saying anything.
Sean pushed the bank card between Leah and Willow before speaking nonchalantly.
"There are ten million dollars in it. It should be enough for the upfront costs, including the cost of hiring
staff and so on.
"Go ahead and do it. The profit is yours, and the loss is mine."
"What? Ten million dollars?"
Leah froze, and Willow's eyes slowly widened.
