The Guardian’s Sword By Talking Cigarette Chapter 102
“That was me too.”
Sean nodded his head faintly as he owned up to his acts once more. Willow heard his words and
looked at him, shocked as she scanned him up and down. Sean, who was in a wheelchair, had beat up
Quill Zimmer and six of his bodyguards? How was that possible? Even if it had been a normal person,
it would still be a near–impossible feat! However, despite being a cripple, he had done it. Had he
actually done something that would be impossible for anybody else? “Willow, trust me. I can protect
you.”
Sean lifted his head slowly and looked at Willow solemnly. Willow was slightly taken aback. There were
things she still did not understand.

Sean was a disabled person, yet he was able to win against seven grown men and escape unscathed.
That was truly unbelievable. “You‘re done with work so early today?” Sean saw that Willow was quiet,
so he broke the silence.
“I...”
When Willow heard what Sean had asked, she wanted to say something, but she decided against it.
For the past two years, she had been taking the time out of her day to go home, so she would be able
to push Sean out of the house to get some sun.
The past two years had flown by, and this had long be a habit of hers.
If she did not leave the office when the time came, she would feel ufortable and restless.
Even after Sean regained his consciousness and was able to push himself out, Willow still felt restless
as she sat at hier office desk.
Thus, as soon as she was free, she would want toe back to check on him.
However, this was a truth Willow refused to admit.

“I came back to get something. I‘ll leave now.” Willow waved her hands and lingered around the home
for a while. She then picked up a random pen and walked out of the house. “You came back just to
take... a single pen?”
Sean was amused, so lie deliberately asked her the question. “Ah... I‘m used to using this pen.”
Willow‘s face was slightly flustered. She wanted to leave immediately. “The ninth of next month, what
day is it?”
Sean asked softly as he remembered what Quill had said.
“Ninth…
“It‘s the anniversary of youing to live with the Quinns.”
Willow shuddered slightly as she sighed behind Sean‘s back. That was the day her nightmare had
started.
Old Madam Quinn had forced her to chase Sean out of the Quinns‘ house. Every Quinn had looked at
her with disdain and mockery and thought that Sean the cripple was tainting their family name and
putting them to shame. Even Willow‘s mother, Fion, had endlessly tried to convince Willow to throw
Sean out. Only Willow knew what exactly she had been through over the past two years. Sean stared
at Willow‘s slender figure, the expression on his face unchanging but his fists tightly balled up. Over the
past two years, even though he had not been fully conscious for all of it, he still vaguely remembered
many things.
This girl had gotten her name and honor ruined because of him.
The Goddess of River City had be theughing stock of the entire poption.
Because of that, Willow was worth Sean protecting with his life.
“Quill Zimmer said he wanted to give you a huge surprise on that day.” Before Sean could finishi,
Willow interrupted him. “I don‘t need it.”
Those simple four words were extremely firm and determined.
“Okay.”
Sean nodded.
“Let‘s not do that, then.
“On the ninth, I‘ll give you a surprise as well,” Sean vowed as he looked at her back.
He had once been the highest–rankingmander with nine stars on his shoulders. What he said
would be true.
He never easily promised anyone just anything. Each and every word he said carried tremendous
weight. However, when it came to Willow, he was willing toy down countless promises. “... don‘t need
it.”
Willow uttered the same four words once more.
After a long pause, she said, “I only want you to be well. “So after that, you can do something, like have
a sessful career so the Quinns stop looking down on us.” After pausing for a while after she was
done speaking, Willow left.
At the same time.

Old Madam Quinn‘s yard. In the quiet yard, two people were seated together. Besides Old Madam
Quinn, Fion was present as well. At the moment, Fion looked wary and ufortable. Old Madam
Quinn had actually asked her over for a heart–to–heart talk. This had truly been a surprise for Fion.
Even though Fion and Old Madam Quinn were mother– and daughter–inw, ording to the family
rules of a strict aristocratic family, she could not disregard position and hierarchy as she pleased. Fion
and her family had also been dissed all this while because of Sean.
“Fion, you know this as well.
“I‘m only against your family because of Sean Lennon,” Old Madam Quinn
looked at Fion and muttered faintly.
“Yes...”
Fion did not dare to say more. All she did was nod.
What Old Madam Quinn had said was the truth.
Old Madam Quinn nced at Fion. She was not in a rush to reveal her ns. Some things could not
be rushed. “Since Sean regained consciousness, how‘s he been like the past few days?” Old Madam
Quinn hield her cup of tea in her hands and asked softly. When this matter was brought up, Fion‘s eyes
finally regained some light. “Old Madam, this Sean is truly something else!” The moment Fion spoke,
Old Madam Quinn‘s hand, which was holding the teacup, shook.
“How‘s he... something else?”
Old Madam Quinn frowned and asked as she ced her cup down. “Sean Lennon is acquainted with
Mr. Larson of Larson Pharmaceuticals! “He‘s also unusually friendly with Mr. Luke, that guy in politics.”
When Fion finished her sentence, Old Madam Quinn‘s eyes bulged with surprise. Her hands shook
once more. Larson Pharmaceuticals of River City, Mr. Luke from the city‘s politics... These two people
were fained and influential people in River City! One held wealth, one held power. Truly extraordinary.
Sean was actually acquainted with them?
