Sean looked in the direction Lillian was pointing and immediately saw an antique
shop.
The antique shop looked ordinary, but you could see a huge interior filled with
rows and rows of shelves through its glass doors.
Many customers were admiring the antiques in the antique shop. There were all
types of customers-young and old, men and women, and businessmen and
scholars. There were about 30 of them in total.
He did not expect Lillian's uncle's shop to be so popular.
It seemed Lillian was not hiding anything with her introduction of the antique
shop. She was telling the truth.
"Let's go inside, Mr. Lennon..."
Lillian reached for Sean's hand as she spoke but hesitated after stretching it out.
Then she withdrew it. She still did not have the courage to hold Sean's hand.
Sean was aware of Lillian's gesture, but he said nothing and did not do anything.
Though he had a soft spot for Lillian now, it was far from love. Besides, he knew
it would never work out for him and Lillian. Therefore, having a situation with her
was just a waste of her time.
As the saying went, "It's better to resolve it now than prolong it."
Sean did not intend to reject Lillian outright, but she could understand what he
meant if he kept his indifference.
"Don't you have to cover yourself up, Mr. Lennon?" Lillian asked as she tried to
strike up a conversation.
"Cover myself up?" Sean looked puzzled.
Lillian nodded and said, "Yeah, cover yourself up. Because you were on TV. I
think many people should have remembered your face. They might recognize
you if we go in like this. It may cause you trouble. After all, your identity is
unusual. You're incomparable to other people.”
Lillian was thoughtful. However, Sean did not think people had that good a
memory.
Sean did make a statement on Dorodo's local TV station after George killed the
heir of the Caballero family. However, he wore makeup and a military uniform
when he appeared on TV.
He was not wearing any makeup. He was a far cry from his image on TV.
Besides that, he wore simple clothes. Therefore, the chances of him being
recognized as the commander-in-chief of Dorodo city defense army were slim.
It was why Lorenzo did not recognize him when he had dinner with Zander at the
fondue restaurant.
"Don't worry. It's alright..." Sean said casually.
Then the two walked into the antique shop together.
As soon as they stepped into the antique shop, a bustling atmosphere greeted
them.
Many people stood in front of the rows of shelves as they commented on the
antiques displayed on the shelves. However, they kept their distance as they
looked in admiration. No one touched them.
It was natural as security cameras were in every direction and corner of the
store. It was an invisible warning.
Besides, the goods here were antiques, not ordinary goods. If they accidentally
spoiled it, they would have to pay a lot of money!
"Lill, why are you suddenly here? You didn't even inform me before coming here!"
An old man in a gray shirt came hurrying along.
The old man's face was thin, his cheeks slightly sunken, and his face was dotted
with distinct liver spots. However, he was full of energy. He looked much more
energetic than most young people!
