Chapter 1236
“Old Master, Commander Lennon speaks the truth.”
Hubert whispered.
William nodded gently and looked Sean in the eye again for nearly ten seconds.
“I’m not trying to morally blackmail the Collins family.
“What the Collins family does is none of my business.
“But I’m a Dragon Kingdom citizen. Even if I stand alone, I will do my best to keep it safe.”
Both William and Sean were touched by Sean’s words.
They saw persistence and determination in Sean’s eyes.
“I’ve retired for many years, and army affairs are beyond my reach.
“Ten days from now, a big shot surnamed Lupin will be visiting Joules Town from Janestown. He’ll be
visiting the Collins family as well.”
William paused slowly, observing Sean’s expression.
However, Sean’s eyes were calm. He made no signs of speaking.
“But then again, society is pragmatic.
“If you want to talk with someone, you must have something worth talking about.
“In a word, you have to be a good blacksmith to make good steel.
“If you can make a name for yourself in Joules Town before that person arrives, I can arrange a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmeeting. for you.”
William looked at Sean and said slowly.
“Old Master Collins, do you want to see what I’m capable of?”
Sean gave a meaningful smile when he heard this.
William said nothing but sat down slowly in his chair.
“Ten days later then.
“Watch how I, Sean Lennon, compare to myself today.”
Sean said and turned to leave without hesitation.
How hard was it to make a name for yourself in an unfamiliar place for ten days?
It was difficult for the average person.
However, Sean was not the average person.
“All that aside, he’s quite daring.”
As soon as Sean left, William laughed.
“Old Master, what are you up to today?”
Hubert was silent for two seconds before asking William.
“It’s more complicated than we thought.”
William shook his head slightly, picking up his coffee cup and taking a sip.
Willian’s servant had already filled him in on some of the highlights of Sean’s life.
William also contacted his friends and inquired about some things.
With his status, it was not difficult to find out anything.
Therefore, he now knew more things than Hubert.
People like Hubert could only see the surface.
William could find out what lay beneath the surface.
“It may be complicated…
“He only wants to borrow soldiers. Why didn’t you lend him them?
“Even though you’ve been discharged from the army for many years, you can still help him by asking.”
Hubert was puzzled.
“I’ll lend him soldiers, and then what?
“Let him lead Dragon Kingdom’s soldiers to attack their own to seize power and command as traitors?”
William replied, leaving Hubert speechless.
“So it’s not about me.
“It’s about the higher-up’s stance.
“We’ll know when the big shot Lupin comes.”
William waved his hand. There was nothing he could do about some things.
“But I still think it was rather cruel of you to do that today.”
Hubert was silent for two seconds, still slightly upset.
Colin and William were close friends.
As Colin’s adopted son, Sean had no choice but to visit the Collins family.
Only to be rebuffed by William’s indifference.
Hubert thought it was inappropriate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Apart from anything else.
“You think I’m cruel, but I think it’s a compliment.
“You can’t lead soldiers with kindness, and you can’t make money with righteousness. Members of the
army have no mercy.
“Do you know you can’t have a firm standing if you’re not ruthless enough?”
William’s answer confused Hubert.
After all, Hubert did not enlist or know much about the army’s culture.
“If Colin was ruthless enough, would he have been trapped and killed in battle?
“If Sean was ruthless enough, would he have been defeated and ended up here…”
William could not help but let out a small sigh.
Hubert looked at William for a few seconds, thinking thoughtfully.
“What do you have in mind then?”
Hubert asked with a frown after a pause.
“I can set him up comfortably in Joules Town for the rest of his life, for Colin’s sake.”
William said, causing Hubert to freeze.
“Do you mean he can never go back to the army?
“So he can only live in hiding as a civilian?”
Hubert’s eyes widened as he frowned deeper.
“I don’t believe he has it in him.”
William shook his head slightly. He was over 50 years old and had seen a lot of things.
