If they did not know of Sean’s past, they might speculate whether Sean was the descendent of a wealthy family or maybe he was the young master of some aristocratic family.
However, they knew of his past. He was merely a soldier.
There was no way a soldier could just take tens of millions of dollars in cash out of nowhere.
“You’re right, grandma. He’s just a soldier. There’s no way he has that kind of money. So I think that the money isn’t his at all. Perhaps he went to bid on that piece of land on behalf of someone else.”
Simon turned to look at her and spoke with a clap of his hand.
“Is that so?”
Old Madam Quinn asked uncertainly.
“Don’t think too much about it, grandma. That’s definitely the case! Regardless, I’d never believe that all that money was his.”
Simon pursed his lip and spoke. Faye nodded along with him.
“Then whose is it? He has a decent relationship with Larson Pharmaceuticals, but Larson Pharmaceuticals doesn’t do real estate! There aren’t many people in the real estate business in River City who can just hand over 60 million dollars at will. Has Sean recently come in contact with any of River City’s corporations?”
Old Madam Quinn narrowed her eyes and put down her cup gently.
“If that’s your question, I found out something today. Recently, Sean has been frequenting Reach For Will Group.”
Simon sat down next to Old Madam Quinn and whispered.
“What? Reach For Will Group? You’re saying that they’re the ones backing him?”
Old Madam Quinn was shocked, her eyes filled with a look of disbelief.
Sean managed to form a connection with Reach For Will Group?
How could that be possible?
“Old Madam, Reach For Will Group has indeed made big moves in the real estate business. They had previously obtained two pieces of land in River City.”
Samuel said to Old Madam Quinn after pondering for a moment.
“This…This isn’t the point. The point is, is Reach For Will Group truly the one pulling the strings behind Sean? What is his relationship with them?”
Old Madam Quinn felt like she was in a daze from the internal turmoil that she felt.
If Sean managed to get in the good graces of some big shot at Reach For Will Group, that alone would allow Sean to become an extremely powerful figure in River City!
Then would they not be fools for chasing Sean and Willow away previously?
“Grandma, I think there must be some kind of deal between Sean and Reach For Will Group. Perhaps that day when Sean came to our ceremony for choosing a bridegroom for Willow, the 50 million dollars that he had was borrowed from Reach For Will Group. Besides, it was just for short use. It would have been returned quickly.”
Fay frowned and voiced out her speculations.
“If they’re connected somehow. Those 50 million dollars could have been given to him by Reach For Will group.”
‘What do you mean by “some kind of deal”?’
