The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 144 Besides, he was now a businessman with money.

With money and men, he had more power.

However, a top-tier big shot like that was killed in his own territory. The youth with
a baseball bat took a deep breath and asked with eyes wide open. “What's going
on here?’

“Who else in River City’s underworld would take a shot at Charles but us?”

No one answered.

It was because no one else dared to do so.

Their power had always been a rival to Charles’. The rest of the underworld were
no match to them.

There were no other small gangs that would dare to face Charles.

Then who did it?

The youth with a baseball bat pondered for a few seconds before they found the
informant they set up at Charles’ place to find out what had happened. “What did
you say? That cripple? “A cripple who single-handedly knocked over so many
people and killed Charles on the spot?” The youth with a baseball bat widened
his eyes with shock on his face.

Seeing this informant nod, the shock the youth felt increased unabated.

When he met Sean, he thought there was something unusual about Sean.

Who knew he narrowly escaped the cripple after all.

He was strong and ruthless. People like him were terrifying...

“Sean...

“Come on, let's head back.”

The youth silently said Sean’s name and led his men back. They were going to
take advantage of Charles’ presence here today to hit Charles.

However, someone beat them to it and killed Charles.

They had achieved what they wanted and could report the completion of their
task.

However, the name Sean Lennon had been etched in their hearts.

Willow's home.

in the dimly lit living room, Willow was idly watching short videos. However, she
was distracted and was not paying attention to the videos at all.

Her eyes lingered more on the digits on the phone screen.

After Sean left with those guys, Willow found it more unsettling as she thought
about it.

Sean said those guys were his friends, and they came to him to take care of
something

Willow had just woken up, confused and not thinking much. After she sobered up
afterward, she remembered the eyes of those youths in black...

It was not the way you would look at a friend.

Therefore, Willow could not help worrying.

The longer it went on the worse it got. “Sean had been gone for so long. Why
isn't he back yet?” Willow bit her lip, clutched her phone in her hand, and got up.
Then she picked up the long trench coat next to her and headed out the door.
Thud!

Just then, the door opened, and Sean rolled in slowly.

“Sean?

“Where... where were you?” Willow paused and asked as she looked at Sean.
“Nothing.”

Sean smiled and said, “Killed some chickens.” “What? You went... killing
chickens in the middle of the night?"

Willow was between laughter and tears as she looked at Sean somewhat angrily.
“Yes

“Why aren't you asleep? Were you worried about me?”

Sean asked with a faint smile when he already knew the answer to it.

He was in a good mood.

He kept Willow safe with his own hands.

He was happy about it, of course.

“Worried about you?

“Dream on...”

Willow suddenly paused before she could finish speaking. Then Willow hastened
up to Sean. She crouched down and grabbed Sean's shirt.

“Sean, why is there blood on you?

“Are... are you hurt? What have you done?” Willow's beautiful eyes were wide,
and anyone could see her nervousness. Even her voice trembled uncontrollably.
She previously said she was not worried about Sean, but now the look on her
face had sold her out.

“I'm not hurt. It's chicken blood.” Sean shook his head slightly and replied in all
seriousness. In his opinion, killing Charles was as easy as killing a chicken.
Willow did not have time to listen to what Sean had to say. She checked Sean up
and down. She was relieved when she realized that Sean really did not have any
injuries. “Sean, I advise you to stay away from people like Charles. “I want you to
pick yourself up and start your own career.

“As long as you have money, you can have a place in this society, and you could
survive even if... you leave the Quinn family. “But I don’t want you hanging out
with people like Charles. They're ruthless and greedy man eaters!”

Willow said as she sat down slowly with a worried look in her eyes.

“I know. I'll do whatever you say.” Sean smiled and nodded, not too concerned.
Willow sat on the couch, hesitating for a few seconds before looking up at Sean
again. “Sean, there’s something I don’t know if I should tell you...”

Willow was hesitant.
