Flint felt compelled to think before answering when he heard Sean ask that.
However, as soon as he realized it, he raised his head, not daring to dwell on it.
When he faced others, he would choose his words carefully, saying what he should say and not saying what he should not say.
However, he dared not play tricks when it came to Sean.
Sean also captured the change in Flint's expression.
Sean did not say anything but waited quietly.
"Mr. Lennon, I did have some business deals with the Zimmer family."
Flint looked at Sean and spoke honestly.
After all, Jon liked to make connections in River City.
He would certainly try to make connections with an underworld ruler like Flint.
Therefore, Flint did get in touch with Jon before. He dared not keep it a secret.
"But then I had no more contact with the Zimmer family when I heard that you had problems with them."
Flint added again before waiting for Sean's reply.
"Yeah."
Sean withdrew his gaze, knowing that Flint dared not lie to him.
He would probably never forget the lesson Sean had given him the other day at Soaring Wyvern Nightclub.
Flint asked Sean again when he saw that he was silent.
"Mr. Lennon, are you going to deal with the Zimmer family?
"Is there anything I can do?"
Sean picked up the glass and looked at Flint with a smile.
"I heard that the Zimmer family has a lot of connections and is backed by a big shot in the army.
"Aren't you afraid?"
"I... I'm afraid!"
Flint nodded before speaking earnestly, "But I'm on your side, and I believe in you, Mr. Lennon!"
His tone was serious, and his words were honest.
It did seem like he was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay!
"He'll tell you what you need to do."
Sean nodded gently and got up to leave.
Zander went to Flint's side to tell him what to do.
Flint listened carefully and kept it in his mind, not daring to neglect it.
What he had done earlier had pissed Sean off.
It was time for him to make amends.
If it did not work out again, Sean would probably put someone else in Flint's position as he had said.
