The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 63 “So what if he's sitting in a wheelchair? Just because he’s sitting in a
wheelchair doesn't mean that he can freeload off others all the time. “Look at my
Jeremy. He was just a small-time employee before this but with his own hard
work, he has been promoted.”

Lucy smiled proudly. It may sound like she was encouraging Sean, but in reality,
she was just comparing the two.

“Mom, don’t compare me to Brother Sean.

“After all, people are different.”

Jeremy's tone was very light. It seemed very casual, but in reality, every word he
said was extremely insulting.

What he meant was that Sean was not even qualified to be compared to him.
“Haha, that's true, that's true.”

Lucy laughed and said, “But no matter what, Willow is still my niece.

“How can I not feel sorry for her? She's just a girl, yet she has to support a
cripple. How tiring is that? “Jeremy, how about this? Do you have any good jobs
for him?” Willow frowned slightly and said, “Second Aunt, there's no need for that
for now. My salary is enough to sustain us.”

“What are you talking about?”

Fion glared at her and said, “Regardless of whether it's enough or not, it's always
good to have one more person earning money.

“Second Sister, Jeremy is an important official. Can you make some
arrangements?”

Hearing Fion’s words, Willow bit her lip and did not say anything else.

Anyway, she would never let Sean earn money.

Sean was already so severely bullied at home. Would it not be worse outside?
Jeremy adjusted his glasses and glanced at Sean.

Then, he rubbed his chin and pretended to think. “Let me think about it.

“He can't sweep or clean the toilets... “It doesn’t seem he can do much.” Lucy's
family chuckled when they heard Jeremy's words.

Sean could not even do such lowly chores like sweeping and cleaning. Was he
not worse than a low-class person? Fion frowned slightly. She finally understood
that Lucy had no intention of finding a job for Sean.

Initially, she thought that even though Sean was disabled, he could still sit in the
office and do some work like photocopying.

However, she did not expect Jeremy to say that.

“Oh, I know!”

Jeremy put down his palm and said, “I happen to be short of a guard at the gate.
“Brother Sean, if you don’t mind, why don’t you come to our company and watch
the door for us? “Although, taking this job would mean being called a watchdog.
“But I don’t think you care about that.” There was a smile in Jeremy's eyes as he
looked down at Sean

Bang! Willow slammed the table and stood up. “Jeremy, aren't you going too
far?” Willow glared at Jeremy, her heart filled with anger. “Cousin Willow, what do
you mean? “Aren't I doing my best to find a job for Brother Sean?” Jeremy asked
with an innocent look. “Sean has nothing against you. Why are you talking about
him like that? “I don’t need you to help him find a job. My salary is enough for
both of us.

“So, thank you for your kind intentions but there's no need to talk about this
anymore.” After Willow finished speaking, she sat back down on the chair. Under
the table, she reached out and grabbed Sean's hand. Sean froze and turned to
look at Willow. Willow blushed slightly. She nodded at Sean and quickly removed
her hand.

Sean's heart was filled with warmth. Willow's grip represented encouragement.
“Willow, no matter what, Jeremy is your direct superior. “If you continue talking to
Jeremy like that, I'm afraid you won't even be able to start a

company.” Lucy snorted and crossed her arms in front of her. Willow was slightly
stunned, but she did not refute in the end. “Mr. Holden, the imported salmon
slices that you want have arrived.” Just then, the door was pushed open slightly.
“Send it in.” Jeremy waved his hand slightly. The door was pushed open, and a
few waiters walked in carrying exquisite plates.

Just then, a few middle-aged men walked past the door.

“Sean, you don't usually eat such things, do you?

“Go on then. Treat it as a reward for you.”

Lucy glanced at Sean and said with a disdainful tone.

Homer, who had just passed the door, was stunned when he heard the voice.
Then, he stopped in his tracks.

“Mr. Luke, please wait. My friend seems to be here.”

Homer frowned slightly and took two steps back.

“Brother Sean, you can think about what I just told you. “Even though being a
guard is a bit degrading, it's better than having Willow take care of you. Being a
freeloader won't give you any status. “Plus, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid
of losing dignity?”

Jeremny smiled and picked up the fish slice elegantly. He dipped it in the sauce
and was about to put it into his mouth.

“Mr. Lennon?”

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door, startling Jeremy and the others.
“Jeremy? Why are you here?” Before everyone could turn around, another voice
was heard.

Swoosh!

Jeremy suddenly turned around and saw Hayden at the door.

Clang!

The next second, the fork in his hands dropped. The piece of raw salmon that
was dipped into the sauce fell onto his body.

His elegant and calm demeanor from before instantly vanished “M-Mr. Luke!
“I'm here for a meal with my family.” Jeremy immediately stood up and greeted
Hayden respectfully. “You're able to eat with Mr. Lennon?

“You sure are shameless, aren't you?"
