“Gosh, who is this? How dare favonovel.com go up against Mr. Lake in Ocean City? Is favonovel.com some big shot from Janestown or somewhere?”
“A big shot? This guy is only the boss of a security firm! Optimus Security Services, the company that caused a lot of trouble in Ocean City recently belongs to him!”
“Huh? He’s just the owner of a security firm? Where does favonovel.com get the nerve to go against Mr. Lake?”
Although Sean’s Optimus Security Services had caused a lot of trouble in Ocean City recently, few people knew what Optimus Security Services was capable of.
“Hmph! Aren’t auctions where the highest bidder wins? The Lake family is rich, but they’re not the boss of Ocean City!” An old but vigorous voice rang in a corner of the auction, drawing everyone’s attention.
They thought it was rare enough to have someone like Sean who dared to challenge the Lake family. Unexpectedly, there was someone else.
Sean also looked at the source of the voice and saw Michael sitting quietly in the corner, looking calmly at Curtis. Next to favonovel.com sat Theodore.
“Old Master Carver, your remark is provoking. Are you not afraid that the Lake family will come after you?” Theodore said with a chuckle.
His cheerful appearance did not have the slightest respect for the Lake family. It was as if the Lake family whom countless people in Ocean City regarded as an insurmountable mountain was nothing to him.
Hearing his old friend’s remark, Michael glanced at Theodore and said, “Mr. Lennon saved our lives. Even if there are hundreds of families after him, I will take Mr. Lennon’s side, not to mention the Lake family alone…”
“People don’t know you, but I do. Mr. Lennon seems to have a vendetta against the punk from the Lake family. If we don’t come forward now, when will we?”
Once Michael finished speaking, Theodore also laughed and looked at Curtis, saying, “Kid, the Lake family has made a lot of money these years and is indeed the top family in Ocean City. But the Lake family doesn’t own Ocean City. We’re still around!”
Two old men with white hair and beards emitted inexplicable momentum as if they were no longer old men but young men who courageously killed the enemy on the battlefield.
“What’s going on? The Carver family and the Davis family are no match for the Lake family. Are these two old men out of their minds? Why are they suddenly going against the Lake family?”
“I can tell you’re not very capable. Only you will say the Carver family and the Davis family aren’t powerful.”
“Haha! Old Master Carver and Old Master Davis have not participated in their families’ development for years. Many people have forgotten what Ocean City used to be like. The Lake family has been a rising rookie in recent years. In Ocean City 20 years ago, these two were the ones standing on top of Ocean City!”
“But that was 20 years ago, and the Lake family is in full swing now. Even if the Carver family and the Davis family work together, they’re probably no match for the Lake family.”
The whole room was whispering. As Theodore and Michael stepped forward, the focus was no longer on the auction.
“Old Master Carver, Old Master Davis, Curtis, I respect you because you’re elders. My family didn’t mess with the Carver family and the Davis family, did we? What do you mean by saying that now?” Curtis asked coldly, unafraid of Michael and Theodore’s gaze.
Theodore sneered and said, “I just don’t like you, alright?”
“Hmph! I’ll tell my father what you did today!” Curtis snorted coldly and said with a serious face.
