The guardian's sword by Taking Cigarette
Chapter 905

Chapter 905

Sean cared about many people, including Zander and his loyal brothers-in-arms.

However, there were only three people in the world whom he regarded as family.

Firstly, his adopted father, Colin. Secondly, Willow, who had taken care of him without complaint for two

years.

The third was the innocent and kind-hearted little girl.

These three were Sean's family but also his weaknesses.

You would die if you touched them.

It was just as Sean had expected.

Sean received a phone call before Zander reached home.

"Sean, is it? I heard you're rich?

"I want you to give me 200 million dollars. Will you give it to me?"

The voice on the other side of the line had been processed to sound like a robot.

"I'll give you every penny of it.

"But I'll make you wish you were dead if you touch her."

Sean held the phone. His tone was icy.

"Hahaha..."

The person on the other end of the line laughed drily. Then there was a loud slap.

"Ah..."

Then came Candy's crying.

"Hsss!"

Sean clenched the phone so hard that his knuckles turned white.

"Why don't you try being arrogant again?"

The person on the other end of the line sneered.

Sean was silent.

Seeing Sean silent, the guy on the other end of the line made another offer.

"I want ten million in cash, all in old bills with non-consecutive serial numbers.

"You can open an overseas account for me for the rest of the money.

"I'll contact you again when you're ready."

"I can get it done right now.

"Where shall I give it to you?"

Sean asked solemnly, gripping the phone.

"It's 5.30 p.m. now. I'll give you an address before 7 p.m.

"You need to be here alone in ten minutes. Bring anyone else or notify the police, and you can collect

her corpse!"

The person on the other end of the line sneered before hanging up.

"Sean, what..."

Leah hurried over when she saw Sean hanging up.

Instead of rushing to answer, Sean called Flint.

Flint had now taken control of River City's underworld, and many people worked for him.

Therefore, Sean wanted to ask Flint if he or his men knew about this.

After getting a negative answer, Sean's eyes grew colder.

He was now quite sure that it was the work of his acquaintance.

They knew Flint and Sean were close, so they did not replace Flint's men.

Sean's enemies in River City were very few.

"Sean, speak. I'm freaking out that you're not saying anything at a time like this..."

Leah trembled as if she had lost her soul.

"It's fine. I'll pick up Candy tonight."

Sean forced a laugh and asked Zander to drive Leah home first.

7 pm.

Sure enough, Sean received an address.

The location was just outside River City.

Without delay, Sean immediately took the money he had prepared and headed to the place.

Willow and the rest were worried, but they could only keep quiet and watch Sean leave.

Sean drove alone and quickly hurried to the destination.

It was in the middle of nowhere, just outside River City. 1

Sean got out of the car and saw a long-abandoned factory in front of him.

It was where they brought Candy.

With cold eyes and a suitcase in each hand, Sean headed inside.

"Where is she?"

Sean saw two young men after taking two steps.

The two young men seemed to have a lot of courage. They did not even wear masks.

"Hmph! Give me the money first."

A young man beckoned his fingers at Sean.

Sean sneered and headed straight inside.

"You can forget about getting the money if I don't see her."

Hearing Sean's icy words, the two young men had no choice.

After all, they were only after money.

Led by the two young men, Sean soon walked into an abandoned warehouse.

An incandescent lamp overhead glowed dimly.

With the help of the dim light, Sean could see at least 20 people in the warehouse.

Besides that, they looked fierce with knives and sticks in their hands.

A man in his late 40s had a scar on the left side of his face, which stretched from his eyebrow to his

earlobe.

It looked scary.

Candy lay on the ground not far behind him.

She seemed to have passed out, and there were tear stains on her tender little face.

Sean's heart broke, but he remained unfazed and slowly withdrew his gaze.

"Here's the money.

"Let go of her."

Sean opened the suitcases full of money.

The two suitcases full of money instantly caught everyone's eye.

The scar-faced middle-aged man and everyone there widened their eyes instantly.

They had never seen so much cash.

"Haha! He's indeed a rich man.

"This is a good deal."

As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, Sean realized he was not a local.

Sean did not know that the middle-aged man had no idea how

terrifying Sean was because he was not from here.

Therefore, they went ahead and blackmailed Sean anyway when Felix had told them not to contact

Sean.

"Put the money there.

"You can take her."

The middle-aged man played with a dagger and pointed at Sean with the tip.

Sean immediately put down the two suitcases and walked over to Candy.

"Candy."

Sean slowly crouched down and held Candy in his arms.

"Uncle Sean..."

Candy slowly opened her eyes and was surprised to see Sean.

Then she looked around with fear.

"Boss, the money is real!

"It's all real money and old bills with non-consecutive serial numbers."

A young man reported with great excitement after checking them out.

"Okay!"

The middle-aged man was delighted to hear that and immediately got up.

"Where's the rest of the money?

"Hand it over, and both of you can stay here! Haha!"

The middle-aged suddenly turned to look at Sean, his eyes full of greed.

"You don't want to let us go?"

Sean slowly got up with his back against the middle-aged man.

"Go? Haha..."

The middle-aged man grinned grimly, never intending to let Candy go.

Now that Sean was here, he wanted to capture two of them.

"I wasn't going to let you out of here alive anyway."

Sean held Candy as he turned around slowly.
