Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Someone is More Anxious Than Me

In the inn, Sean Knight, who had just finished an intense workout, was taking a shower.

Joanna Davis lay on the bed, her eyes unfocused and a satisfied smile on her face.

After the shower, Sean came out with a towel wrapped around him, looked at Joanna, and asked:

"Do you want to take a shower too?"

"Wait a moment, I have no strength after your activities..."

Joanna’s words and expression made Sean desire her again, but he knew it wasn’t the right time. He lay down on the bed, embracing Joanna and whispering sweet nothings to her.

"You said you already rented a freight yard?"

Joanna sat up with surprise:

"I never thought you would start acting so quickly!"

Sean stroked her smooth back and smiled:

"Since I already told you about that matter, I have to proceed with it. Otherwise, how can I get past your parents?"

Joanna leaned in for a passionate kiss, and the two were entwined once more, the air filling with the scent of hormones.

The second day, after sending Joanna away, Sean thought about whether he should buy a house.

Renting was inconvenient since the two made quite a bit of noise.

Staying at an inn was not comfortable either, as it was not his own domain.

Perhaps it was time to consider such matters.

After all, if he only bought a small single-story house, he could afford it.

However...

While Sean was pondering, Monica Brown called.

"What? George has a problem with me?"

Hearing what Monica said, Sean was surprised, but then realized it was within reason.

Originally, the treasure-hunting information from the Joseph family came through George.

If things had proceeded according to the rules, Sean absolutely would not have had an issue with George.

But the whole situation went awry when the Joseph families broke their contract, and George hid information, causing Sean to be passive several times.

Even a clay figure has three points of fire in its nature!

Moreover, Sean was not a spineless Chinese man who people could look down upon and fawn over!

If he didn’t like it, he would flip the table and leave!

"George is a veteran in the treasure hunter circle, and recently, it is said that the treasure in the Joseph manor has been dug up."

"It was me who dug it up!" Sean said, "At that time, I found four pieces of gold. They were supposed to get forty percent, but they demanded sixty percent, so I left..."

"No." Monica knew the details of the matter, "It is said that Harry Joseph, the current leader of the Joseph family, found a new treasure location.

However, when they went to excavate the site, they discovered that it had already been dug up by someone. He suspected that it was someone who had been to the manor recently.

After some unsuccessful investigations, George found out and told Harry that it was most likely you. Harry looked into the people who helped you sell the gold, but so far, he hasn’t found anything..."

"Damn it, George! He went too far!" Sean couldn’t believe that George had guessed it was him who had secretly taken the treasure!

The old fellow had a really good eye!

But he brought new problems for himself!

"It seems that George is spreading the word in New York’s treasure hunter circle and proposing to boycott you, saying you broke the rules and urging everyone to stop giving you information..."

"Well, if they don’t give it, they don’t give it. It’s more reliable to find my own information than to rely on these stubborn old guys!"

Monica was worried about Sean’s situation and reminded him:

"In New York, some things are about the circle. People like George might not be able to accomplish much, but they can cause a lot of trouble in many ways!"

Sean’s heart tightened, but he still responded calmly:

"Don’t worry, Miss Monica, I’m no pushover either! If it comes to it, I’ll just quit being a treasure hunter and focus on bidding for containers and freight—it’s still a good business."

After hanging up the phone, Sean’s face darkened.

He originally thought that after giving George the money, he would settle the matter.

He didn’t expect the old guy to look so kind but not care about fairness at all!

It seemed that he needed to teach George a lesson!

In a luxury villa in New York, a tall, young white man arrogantly said to George:

"Mr. George, I think you may have overestimated the Chinese man! He just happened to find something valuable left behind at your place, and you praised him like that, saying he might threaten us New York treasure hunters—how can that be possible?"

Facing this newly-risen treasure hunter, George could not admit defeat:

"Although I don’t have any goodwill towards that Sean, it doesn’t hinder me from recognizing his ability! Not only did he find the treasure in my manor, he also discovered the one in the Joseph family..."

"No, no, no!" The young man waved a finger:

"He only found a small, insignificant part of the Joseph treasure! He didn’t find more!

Concerning this point, after being reminded by you, Harry Joseph thoroughly investigated the Chinese boy’s channels and found no further gold or gems sold..."

George still wasn’t satisfied and said:

"It’s possible that he hid it and didn’t sell it..."

"You’re wrong, Mr. George," the young man William said seriously: "I have investigated him. He is indeed very good at finding valuable things, but those are trivial compared to what us treasure hunters are after!

Moreover, every time he finds something valuable, he immediately sells it; there is no issue with holding on to anything. This time is undoubtedly the same! Therefore, George, don’t exaggerate your opponent’s strength—he’s not enough to be considered my rival!"

George wanted to say more, but William raised his hand to stop him:

"Let’s talk about business. Recently, I’ve been investigating a treasure from the World War II period and have made some progress.

The treasure is located in New York. I don’t know if you guys are interested? I’m willing to sell thirty percent of it. If anyone is interested, they can buy it from me first—"

George no longer spoke, knowing that saying more would be useless.

Since falling out with Sean, George felt that he needed to suppress Sean; otherwise, he might not only lose face but also be unable to continue in the circle!

However, the other people at the scene were attracted by William’s treasure-sharing plan, and they all inquired about the World War II treasure. No one was paying attention to George anymore.

Sighing, George knew that the only chance to suppress Sean had been missed.

Maybe it was time to pack up and leave this place.

But he was really not willing to give up!

In fact, the Joseph family investigation had originally failed to find Sean. After all, the paperwork he signed was torn up by Tennyson White.

However, once they couldn’t find the person, George called them. Harry immediately went to investigate Sean’s situation. But when he discovered that Sean’s gold sales didn’t amount to much, he didn’t stir any trouble.

After all, Sean had Mr. John backing him, which meant he wasn’t completely without support.

On his end, Sean didn’t care about George’s feelings; he was already on his way again.

Yesterday’s gains had made him very happy. Today, Mr. John gave him the address of a countryside collector, just like yesterday. This person was also in need of selling their collection.

Sean planned to go over and check things out, hoping to find some new treasures!
