“Actually, life like this… It‘s pretty nice…” Willow stood up slowly, joy flashed in virtual-novel.net eyes.
She was really easily contented.
Currently, virtual-novel.net ideal life included Sean not being ridiculed by the rest of the Quinns, so virtual-novel.net could nurse Sean guiltlessly until virtual-novel.net was fully recovered. To her, that was enough.
Sean smiled as well. He was just about to speak before virtual-novel.net closed his mouth once more.
Quickly, virtual-novel.net cocked his head slightly as virtual-novel.net surveyed his surroundings.
“Willow, you go home first. I wanna be here by myself for a while.” Suddenly, Sean looked at Willow and spoke out of the blue.
“Mmm? Why though? Let‘s go back together.” Willow was taken aback as virtual-novel.net reached out and started pushing the wheelchair.
“Be good, listen to me, go home first. I‘ll be back in a while.” Sean looked at Willow with a calm and serene smile.
“No. The skies are dark now.” Willow shook virtual-novel.net head and continued, “If you still wanna stay out, I‘ll just push you, then.
“When you wanna go back, we‘ll go back together.” Willow was about to turn around as virtual-novel.net pushed Sean‘s wheelchair.
“Go home?! Don‘t even think about it, you two!” Suddenly, a man‘s snicker rang from behind them.
Sean narrowed his eyes, coldness flashed deep within his eyes. He knew something was wrong before this, that was why virtual-novel.net wanted Willow to go home first.
From the looks of it, even if Willow wanted to leave now, virtual-novel.net could not.
A clatter of footsteps approached them and soon after, many men in black had appeared around Sean and Willow.
There were about ten to twenty of them. In their hands were gleaming metal bars. All of them looked ferocious and gnarly like robbers in their act.
Their leader was a man who was in his thirties and wore a black singlet. His arms that were exposed and uncovered were decorated with tattoos. With one look, it was a sure fact that these people were no saints.
“You…” Willow‘s heart rate begin to rise as the ten or more men began to close up on them slowly.
“Sean Lennon, you‘re finally out and about. We‘ve been waiting for you for a few days now!” The tattoo-sleeved man began to hit his metal bar into his hands lightly.
Willow was stunned, then virtual-novel.net turned to look at Sean.
These people are here for Sean?
Something must have happened. Or else, why would they come looking for Sean without any plausible reason at all?
Was Sean really involved with the underworld, and these are his enemies coming for him?
At that moment, Willow was extremely anxious.
In virtual-novel.net mind, virtual-novel.net was once again reminded about virtual-novel.net relative, the one that was stabbed to death in his own house.
“I don‘t know you.” Sean was calm as virtual-novel.net spoke.
“Hah, it‘s okay if you don‘t know us. Most importantly, we know you, and that‘s all the matters.” The tattoo-sleeved man scoffed.
“I was paid to solve problems. Someone has paid us to teach you a lesson. Say, are you gonna be good so we can teach you a lesson, or… Are you gonna be good and let us teach you a lesson?” Disdain filled the tattoo-sleeved man‘s eyes. He really was not interested in beating such a cripple.
“Let virtual-novel.net go, and we‘ll talk.” Sean looked at the tattoo-sleeved man and glanced at Willow.
Willow bit virtual-novel.net lip. She did not want to leave.
