The guardian's sword by Taking Cigarette novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249

Sean was really serious.

The expression on his face showed that he was not joking, not even one bit.

After he was done talking. Scan kept quiet aslie waited for Willow to respond.

This time, he had dislied everything out truthfully to Willow, and he did not lide anything.

The both of them were still looking into each others‘ eyes when the room fell into pin–drop silence

Sean‘s was unsazed, while Willow was slackjawed as if she had heard absurd news.

“...Sean Lennon, w–wliat did you just say?”

After what seemed like forever, Willow had slowly regained her senses as she looked at Sean dumbfoundedly.

Sean spoke once more, “I said, that person in that photo‘s the highest–ranking nine–star commander

“Which is... me.”

Sean was calm as he repeated once more.

This time, Willow heard him loud and clear.

After being stunned for a few seconds, Willow reached out her hand and slowly felt Sean‘s forehead.

“What is it?”

Sean did not shy away, but allowed Willow‘s soft and warm hand to cover his forehead as he asked confusedly.

“You‘re not having a sever...

“Why are you saying nonsensical things now?”

Willow frowned and muttered to hersell.

Sean heard that and shook his head helplessly.

“I‘m not speaking nonsensical things

“I, Sean Lennon, am the highest–ranking commander in the military,

“I‘ve only told you this secret. You and you alone.”

Even so, the way Willow was looking at hin was like...

It was like she was looking at someone who had just escaped the mental asylum.

Sean felt helpless. It was rare that he even tried to explain something to someone since he

usually did not bother to do so anyway.

N

Alas, the rare time that he actually explained thoroughly was greeted with Willow’s unwillingness to believe him.

“That’s impossible!

“You do have resemblance with that person in terms of the side profile

“But your body shapes are way different! Did you think I wouldn’t notice?”

After Sean was done speaking, Willow started her rebuttal immediately.

“That’s because I’ve grown a lot plumper under your tender loving care the past two years!”

Sean shook his head exasperatedly, but he was still explaining with patience.

If it were anyone else, he would only say it once.

Whether they believed it was not up to them..

However, when it came to Willow Quinn, Sean had an immense amount of patience.

“Even if what you say is true,

“If you think so, it is so, then...”

Sean could only nod exasperatedly.

“Hah! It‘s impossible to hide things from me!”

Willow laughed proudly, giving herself a mental pat on the back for such an amazing hypothesis she had come up with.

“Then tell me, who is this person?

“Since he‘s your former superior, you‘d know, right?

“I‘m so curious! Would you tell me?”

Willow looked at Sean once more as she asked hopefully.

Too bad, Sean did not know what to say at that time!

The person in the photo was him, Sean Lennon, who was right in front of Willow at that time.

It was just a simple explanation, which was...

He, Sean Lennon, was the person in the photo.

However, no matter how Scan tried to explain, Willow did not believe him!

“Willow, I heard your friend, Rachel Summers is about to come back, right?”

Sean did not answer Willow but instead threw another question at lier.

“Yeah!”

Willow nodded and said, “Rae said thic army is a lot different than before, and that she was mentally and physically tired of it, that‘s why she didn‘t wanna stay there for much longer

“Two days ago, she had already sent in her application to retire from the army. As soon as she finishes settling things shie has to settle, she should be back soon.”

Sean replied, “When she‘s back, perhaps the answers for everything would surface.”
