Summon of The Sword novel Chapter 24

Once again, Sean stepped in gallantly to defend her dignity.

It was the kind of thing Willow had always wanted.

She never thought it would become reality someday.

Since Sean came to himself, these hopes had come true.

"Excuse me. You might not afford to pay if you ruin it."

Sean slowly turned to look at the crowd of a dozen of people.

They all looked at each other and obediently stepped to one side.

In the presence of such an expensive car, they could not resist.

What kind of society was this?

They looked down on the poor, yet looked up to the rich no matter where their money came from!

Even if Sean was a cripple, he was a cripple who drove a Ferrari!

"Sean, let's go inside."

Willow blushed a little and did not want to say much in front of the crowd.

"Alright."

Sean chuckled and did not even look at the crowd.

From beginning to end, he ignored these people.

Willow wheeled Sean slowly into the yard and gently closed the gates.

"Was I dreaming? The Quinn family's vegetable... cripple... bought the Ferrari?"

"No way! It's a multimillion-dollar Ferrari. Do you think you're buying groceries?"

"According to Fion, Sean used to be in the army. He didn't even get ten thousand dollars in retirement. How could he afford it?"

The crowd found it a little hard to believe.

"Hmph! We don't even know if it's his."

"You can even rent a girlfriend these days. What else can't you rent?"

"You have a point! Sean can afford a Ferrari? Then I can drive a Rolls-Royce!"

The weak were accustomed to ridicule and denial.

...

At home.

Fion was still out playing poker while Willow's father, Kent Quinn, was out socializing.

Willow and Sean were the only ones at home.

"Sean, why won't you listen to me?"

Willow sat in front of Sean, sounding a little resigned.

"The car really belongs to us."

Sean shook his head in resignation. He knew what Willow meant.

Willow thought the car was stolen, or Sean had rented it.

"I want to believe you!

"But how can I trust you when you can't even pay for a bus ride?

"Sean, is this realistic?"

There was no sarcasm in what Willow said, just confusion.

"I didn't buy it. It was a gift.

"It's ours, of course."
