Fion was speechless, still reluctant to agree.
"Aunt Fion, after all, this house..."
Sean slowly turned his head and looked at the house he had lived in for two years.
"This house has sheltered me for two years.
"I won't forget that, so you, Willow, and Uncle Kent will never have to worry about money.
"Ask Willow to tell me what you need, and I'll do it.
"Besides that, the villa at Golden Villa Garden has been renovated and is ready to move in at any time.
"If you want to move there, I'll arrange for someone to pick you up."
Reassured by Sean's words, Fion immediately nodded.
"Mom, I'll see Sean to the door."
Willow grabbed Sean's hand, bid goodbye, and walked out.
"Oh, okay!"
Kent and Fion got up and walked Sean and Willow to the door.
Kent and Fion's eyes were full of mixed feelings as they watched them leave.
"Old Kent, what do you think is going on with Sean?"
Fion was silent for a moment before asking with a frown.
"Maybe we've only known him for these two years. We don't know what he was like before..."
Kent pondered for two seconds before turning around slowly with a sigh.
"I'll have to ask Willow where he got the money.
"If it's his money, I won't get in the way of his and Willow's relationship anymore. Instead, I give them my blessing."
Fion turned and closed the door.
"What's the matter? You despise him when he has no money, yet you give them your blessing when he's rich."
Kent frowned as he spoke. His tone was a little upset.
"What are you talking about?
"He was a cripple back then. Hasn't he recovered now?
"Besides, how much of his money could I spend? I just don't want my daughter to have to work hard for a living."
Fion put her hands on her waist as she answered self-righteously.
"I don't want to talk to you."
Kent did not want to argue with Fion and turned to enter his bedroom.
...
Willow walked Sean out the door and slowly stood where she was.
It was getting late in the afternoon, and the lamps were already turned on.
Willow's face looked rosy in the dim light of the street lamps.
"Won't you come with me?"
Sean looked at Willow. He wanted to take Willow to do something.
It was the first time he had ever stood in front of Willow on both legs.
He remembered what Willow had said.
She wanted Sean to go to the movies with her, go shopping with her...
He could do all that now.
"I'm sure this incident today has gained much media attention.
"I can't show up in public right now. You'd better go home early."
Willow shook her head slightly. She did not want to be surrounded by reporters asking questions.
"Okay."
Sean nodded gently.
He had many more years with Willow in the future.
Just then, Sean's phone rang.
"Hello, Mr. Lennon. It's Flint.
