Chapter 1103
“The Zimmer family in River City are no more…
“How dare Sean do that?
“How dare he do it?”
Old Madam Quinn slowly sighed as if asking or talking to herself.
“Grandma, could he be threatening us?”
Faye warned in a whisper as she frowned.
“Threatening…
“Yeah, he’s telling the Quinn family that he can do whatever he wants.”
There was a hint of bitterness on Old Madam Quinn’s lips.
Simon frowned and pondered for a moment before looking at Old Madam Quinn and spoke.
“Grandma, let’s not worry too much.
“If Sean did this, there’s no way he can get away with it.
“He can’t get away with murder.”
Others nodded too.
“That’s true.”
There was no way Sean could get away with it if he were the culprit.
“Besides, it’s in the news. Someone will find out the truth.
“Sean can’t get away with it.”
Simon still had a problem with Sean.
Willow’s father, Kent, watched in silence.
He increasingly realized how keen–minded and intelligent Sean was.
After Sean recovered, he looked on coldly whenever the Quinn family spoke.
Kent had no idea what Sean was going through at the time.
Now, Kent felt as if everyone else was drunk except him, and he seemed to be watching a circus show.
However, he would not say much either.
Knowing he could not persuade them, he chose to look on and see how long they would invite trouble to themselves.
However, Kent could not take it anymore as they spoke harsher.
“You’re all so excited.
“What’s the matter? What does the Quinn family stand to gain if Sean goes to prison?”
The talking crowd stopped as soon as Kent spoke.
They could not name the benefits they would gain.
Simon would not gain anything from targeting Sean, but it would make him feel better.
“At the very least, he won’t have a chance to strut his stuff in front of us if he’s imprisoned.
“We don’t have to be threatened by him.”
Old Madam Quinn took over the conversation and said indifferently.
Kent gave Old Madam Quinn a look and shook his head slightly.
“How do you know he’s going to be jailed?”
Kent asked the crowd, shaking his head in resignation.
“Duh. It’s a done deal.
“If he had powerful connections, he could have suppressed it, and no one would have known.
“How can he suppress it now that it’s in the news?”
Simon bragged with disdain.
The others agreed.
“Breaking news. We have new progress with the murder of the man surnamed Zimmer.”
Just then, the television’s speakers caught everyone’s attention once again.
Swoosh!
The Quinn family immediately turned their heads around and shut up.
“According to the government’s investigation, the man surnamed Zimmer was involved in a dispute with some fugitives from outside the city.
“Negotiations between the two parties failed, resulting in the man surnamed Zimmer’s death.
