Chapter 97

Done for, he’s completely done for this time around!

When Homer Larson showed up, Mr. Lowe thought that he was beaten in his own game.

However, when Hayden Luke showed up personally just for Sean Lennon, it was only then he

understood that this game that he was beaten at was a whole different ball game in itself.

For Mr. Lowe to be brought and beaten in a totally different game, his loss was clearly a brutal scene.

As for Jack Tomme, all the arrogance and so–called pride he had prior to this had completely

disappeared.

The only thing that was left in his heart, was overwhelming horror.

“This, this…”

Jack’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he tried to say something with nothing coming

out.

“Leah, what was it that they said they wanted?”

Sean Lennon turned to Leah Light and asked faintly.

“They wanted… Two million dollars of medical compensation fees, and for us to… Give them a public

apology…”

Leah bit her lip as she answered truthfully.

“Mmm.”

Sean nodded affirmatively. His hands crossed on his lap as he said nothing else.

At that very moment, Homer and Hayden frowned as they looked over to Jack.

Did they want Sean to apologize to them publicly?

Does this Jack Tomme think he’s done with living?!

When Jack saw the look in both their eyes, there was a ringing that started in his head.

Larson Pharmaceuticals‘ business oppression together with Hayden Luke’s influence in the political

world…

If they were to join forces…

”

Spark

Tomme Ltd. would cease to exist right away!

As Jack thought about all these, the horror in his heart heightened.

“Woosh!”

Jack immediately made a beeline before Sean, a courteous smile plastered on his face.

“Mr. Lennon, where do I replace the courage for me to ask you for an apology…

“This is all a misunderstanding, just a pure misunderstanding!”

Jack’s heart was strung so tightly it dangled on the base of his throat.

When he was before Homer Larson, his pride did not allow him to back down easily.

However, before Hayden Luke, where does his pride stand?

He also clearly understood the focal point of the entire matter was Sean Lennon.

“You don’t need us to apologize?”

Sean cocked his eyebrows and asked casually.

“No, no, no, absolutely no need…”

Sean frowned, an unexplainable expression framed his face.

“Why not… Mr. Larson loan me some money then?”

A glimpse of mockery flashed across his face as he asked faintly.

“Sure.”

Homer nodded immediately.

“No, no, no, no, Mr. Lennon, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood!

“The two million dollars we talked about before is the two million that WE are gonna compensate to Mr.

Lennon!

“If you don’t believe me, you can certainly ask this lady over here…”

Jack immediately waved his hands and looked pointedly at Leah.

“Ahh…”

Leah felt like she was dreaming. She could not even utter a single word.

“You see, Mr. Lennon, for your kid to attend my school and we’ve not been taking good care of her… o

“That’s our bad, so I, Jack Tomme have decided to apologize to Mr. Lennon personally and as a token

of my apology, two million dollars.

“This is compensation for all the medical fees and trauma that might have occurred to your child.

“What do you think, sir?”

Jack rubbed his hands together as he asked carefully.

“What do you think, Leah?”

Sean, who was in the wheelchair asked Leah gently.

“This, this…”

Leah was still so overwhelmed she could not even make a single sound.

Since when had she experienced anything like this before?!

“Mr. Lennon, Madam Light, from now onwards, I will be absorbing all expenses of your child’s

education with us.

“I guarantee that there will no longer be any recurrence of anything like this.

“Should there be a ‘next time‘, I will gladly accept death as punishment!”

Jack was ultimately an experienced, veteran businessman that had been in the game for decades,

making him a well–versed man.

Whatever Sean wanted to hear, there he would be telling it to him.

As Jack spoke, he took out a bank card and handed it over with both hands to

Sean.

Sean was quiet.

In the few seconds that he remained silent, it was as long as a few years for Jack!

Each second that passed was agonizing torture for Jack.

If Sean would accept the money, it would be an easy resolution of the matter.

If he chose not to take it, the Tomme Ltd. as he knew it would be completely over.

Sean glanced at Candy and reached out his hand after a moment of pondering to accept the bank

card.

“Thank you, Mr. Lennon! Thank you, Mr. Lennon!”

Jack heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

“Since matters are resolved, Mr. Lennon, let’s go?”

Hayden stepped up and talked smilingly at Sean, not even sparing a glance at Jack.

“Sure thing.”

Sean nodded.

“Mr. Lennon, Mr. Lennon!

“Sir… You…”

Suddenly, Mr. Lowe rushed over and looked at Sean with a terrified expression on his face.

Jack Tomme had solely resolved the dangers faced by Tomme Ltd. and did not mention him even a

single bit.

For Sean to forgive Jack did not mean that Sean would forgive him as well!

“What… Do you want me to apologize to you?”

Sean’s face was aloof as he asked nonchalantly.

“Gasp!”

Mr. Lowe inhaled sharply.

“Woosh!”

The very next second, Mr. Lowe bowed at a perfect 90 degrees towards Sean.

“I was wrong, Mr. Lennon!

“Truly, I was wrong. Please replace it in your kind heart to forgive me just this once. “I… I too am willing to

compensate you with two million dollars, Mr. Lennon!”

Mr. Lowe’s head was droopy as he spat through gritted teeth.

Even though two million was no small amount for him, but if he did not spend this two million, he would

not be able to continue working for a living here in River City!

“Do you think that I, Sean Lennon would just accept money no matter who gave it to me?”
