The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 126 Fion was annoyed when she heard that, but she really had no choice if Willow was

threatening, to never get in touch with Quill again.

She had to agree to it.

“Okay! But there has to be a deadline. “I‘ll give him at most... one month.” Fion sat down again. That

was her compromise. “Sure!” Willow gritted her teeth, paused, and said, “I hope... you will treat him well

during his final days in the Quinn Residence.

“At least don‘t humiliate and ridicule him as coldly as before.”

Fion nodded in silence for a few seconds upon hearing this.

After Willow said all of that, as if she had collapsed from exhaustion, she leaned back against the sofa

and stopped talking. She had done everything she could do. Willow would give up a peaceful life for

Sean‘s sake, even at her own expense.

‘Sean, no matter what…

‘I have a clear conscience with you.

‘But I‘m still a woman, and there are some things I can‘t change,‘ Willow thought to herself. 1 Willow

stared blankly in space and looked up at the ceiling in a daze. Fion looked at Willow‘s faint expression,

and she could not bear it.

After all, Willow was still her flesh and blood.

“Willow, you need to know that Mom is doing this for your own good. 2

“It’s been two years… Can you not guess the way people will ridicule you?

“If you really marry him, have you ever thought about what your married life would be like?”

Fion slowed down and looked at Willow seriously. “Well, as you said, you‘re willing to take care of him.

But are you still planning to go to work? “If he‘s rich, it‘s okay to say that you‘ll be a full-time wife and

take good care of him at home.

“But he’s extremely poor! So if you don‘t go to work, you’ll have no money or food!

“Is that kind of life really what you want?”

Willow fell into silence after Fion asked her those questions.

Sean had no money and could not work *

Therefore, if Willow wanted to live with Sean, she would have to bear the burden of their

marriage on her weak shoulders alone.

However, she could not take care of Sean when she would be at work.

In this world, it was hard to make both ends meet.

Willow sighed in her heart.

“But it would be different if you married Young Master Zimmer.

“He’s rich and powerful. He’s a man whom many girls dream about having to themselves.

“If you marry him, you won’t ever be wronged.”

Fion’s tone once again eased a lot. She was persuading Willow to strike while the iron was hot.

She then fell into a daze as if thinking about something.

“Willow, do you really believe that Sean has six million?

“If he really had so much money, would he still need to suffer in our house?

“He would have taken the money and gone out to enjoy his life, or he would have paid a nanny to

attend to him.”

Fion suddenly remembered a certain incident again and spoke with a curl of her lips.

Willow slowly turned her head and looked at Fion after hearing this.

“He told me he’s staying here for me.

“I can feel his sincerity in remaining here to protect me.”

Willow remembered clearly that Sean had been very serious when he said that sentence to her.

Willow also clearly remembered the sentence.

“Stop talking about such pointless things.

“It’s just sweet talk. Why are you taking it so seriously?

“He lied to you about having six million. Let me tell you, that promise was all a trick too.”

Fion curled her lips when she heard what Willow had said. She did not believe it at all.

“Putting that all aside, Sean really has six million.

“I’ve seen all the text messages from River City Bank. Could he have faked that?”

Willow shook her head to show that she did not want to say more on this matter.

“Why couldn’t it have been faked?

“You can just save my phone number as ‘River City Bank‘ in your cell phone, and I can send you a text

message about a transaction of six million being banked into your account.

“If he really has so much money, why does he not dare to show it to me?”

Willow could not refute Fion at all when she said that.

“… Whether he has the six million or not has nothing to do with me.

“I didn’t expect him to have any money when I decided to accept him in the beginning.

“Since I didn’t intend to take his money when everything started, I won’t try to take it now

with.”

After Willow finished speaking, she slowly got up. She was ready to head back to her room to

rest.

“I’m telling you, he doesn’t have any money. He’s just fooling you! If you believe…”

When Fion said this, Sean’s door suddenly opened from inside.

Swoosh!

Fion instinctively shut her mouth, frowned, and looked at Sean.

“What? Even if you heard me, what can you do?

“You’re really poor. Who are you trying to fool?” Fion said with a sneer, one hand on her hips.

However, Sean did not even look at her.

“Willow, are you free tomorrow?” Sean looked at Willow and asked softly.

“Tomorrow… I shouldn’t be busy. Do you have something you want to do?” Willow was taken aback for

a moment before she asked softly.

“I said before that I wanted to buy a new car.

“If we have time tomorrow, let’s go check out some cars together.”

After Sean finished speaking, he nodded at Willow and slowly closed the door.

“Ahh… This… Okay…”

Willow did not seem to react until Sean closed the door. She nodded blankly.

Sean wanted to take her to buy a car?

Fion also reacted suddenly. She grabbed Willow’s palm.

“Willow, what did Sean just say? He wants to buy a car? He really wants to buy a car?” Fion’s eyes

were full of surprise as she asked incredulously. 2
