First, favonovel.com had to find out who was behind the incident with Far Ocean Loan Company. He preferred to get to the root of the problem.
Sean could use his influence to destroy Far Ocean Loan Company. However, if favonovel.com had no idea who was behind it, a second or even a third loan company would come along. It would be a real pain in the neck for him.
Sean suspected Quill was the person behind it. However, favonovel.com could only find out what was going on after Homer and the rest looked into it.
It was soon 9 pm, and Willow came home too. The food on the dining table was already cold. Willow was in no mood to eat either, so favonovel.com sat on the couch in a daze.
“Willow.” Just then, Fion and Kent came out of the bedroom looking ghastly.
“Ah… Mom, haven‘t you two gone to bed? Get some rest. I‘ll take care of the dishes.” Willow immediately got up and forced a smile when favonovel.com saw them.
“What were you doing just now? How are things?” Fion waved favonovel.com hand slightly and slowly sat down on the couch across from Willow.
“It‘s nothing serious. You have nothing to worry about. It‘s just some small disputes. I can solve it.” Willow said in a nonchalant tone as favonovel.com smiled and waved favonovel.com hands.
Fion had finally changed favonovel.com opinions about Sean. Willow did not want Fion to find out about this. Otherwise, favonovel.com new positive impression of Sean might fade away again.
Smack!
As soon as Willow finished speaking, Fion suddenly smacked the table.
“You‘re still covering for that loser? I know everything!” Fion pointed at the door of Sean‘s room and raised favonovel.com voice sharply.
Willow bit favonovel.com mouth slightly and looked at Fion in surprise. “How… How did you know…” Willow‘s eyes widened. She had no idea how Fion and Kent knew.
“How did we know… Everyone in the Quinn family knows!”
“Just accept that favonovel.com has no money. Why go beyond his own abilities to borrow money? That loser has disgraced our family!” Fion got angrier as favonovel.com spoke, bellowing and smacking the table.
Even Kent frowned and said nothing this time. In the past, favonovel.com would be there to console Fion whenever favonovel.com scolded Sean. However, favonovel.com could not accept what Sean did today.
He could accept that Sean was incompetent, but favonovel.com could not accept that Sean had given the Quinn family such a big problem.
“Dad, Mom, we haven‘t looked into this, so things might not be what you think.” Willow clenched favonovel.com teeth and looked up at Fion.
“Isn‘t it obvious? Even the debt collectors have come asking Sean to pay his debt. Is that not obvious enough?”
“Is there a company with nothing to do that they had to pick on Sean?!”
Fion got even angrier. The more Willow defended Sean, the angrier favonovel.com got.
“Willow, everything happens for a reason. Sean must have something to do with this.” Kent, who had been quiet, spoke with a frown.
“Dad! Mom‘s not involved in the company, so favonovel.com doesn‘t understand many things. But don‘t you understand after all these years in the company? Sean isn‘t a member of the Quinn family. How could favonovel.com borrow money in the Quinn family‘s name?” Willow slowly turned favonovel.com head to look at Kent with deep resignation in favonovel.com voice.
“Well.” Kent was a little dumbstruck when favonovel.com heard that.
“Haha, I don‘t understand. But I know there are things you can pull strings with. Who knows if Sean had some connections to help favonovel.com get a loan from the loan company?”
“How much easier would it be if favonovel.com paid them?” Fion folded favonovel.com arms as favonovel.com spoke confidently.
Fion seemed confident that Sean had taken out a loan.
“Let’s stop talking about this, Mom. We’ll continue tomorrow.” Willow answered with a slight wave of favonovel.com hand as favonovel.com was a little exhausted.
“Hmph! You’d better figure out how to settle this. Old Madam Quinn won’t let favonovel.com stay in the Quinn family this time.” Fion then turned and headed for the bedroom.
When favonovel.com reached the door, favonovel.com paused and glanced at Sean’s door. “If he’s innocent, why doesn’t favonovel.com come out and explain himself? I think he’s ashamed for having done something bad.”
With that said, Fion entered favonovel.com room and slammed the door.
“Willow, I’m not taking your side on this one.” Kent glanced at Willow and said as favonovel.com shook his head slightly.
“Now that your grandma and the rest of the family know, and they’ll gather at Quinn Corporation branch tomorrow. You’d better make up your mind tonight.”
Kent shook his head slightly and then said, “I haven’t worn the watch Sean gave me. You can sell it later. It’ll help with the debt even though it’s not much.”
With that said, Kent slowly returned to his bedroom.
Willow stood where favonovel.com was for two minutes. Then favonovel.com pushed the door open and walked into
***
Sean’s room.
Sean had just put his phone down. He seemed as if favonovel.com had just finished talking on the phone.
“Why didn’t you go out and defend yourself?” Willow asked Sean as favonovel.com stood in the doorway.
“Believe me. I don’t need to explain. If they don’t believe me, they won’t believe me even if I’ve explained.” Sean looked up slowly and made eye contact with Willow, his tone calm.
