Mario had worked his way up to this point on his own, and favonovel.com was so astute that favonovel.com noticed the eye contact between Sean, Jadon, and the rest.
However, favonovel.com pretended not to see it. Whether it was due to his relationship with Jadon or the fact that favonovel.com had always chosen to keep his nose out of any affairs in Ocean City, favonovel.com would not spread today’s events.
“Ol’ Winters, arrange a room for Mr. Lake to rest here for the night…” Jadon looked at Mario and said.
Mario nodded and responded, “Of course, Mr. Lake is Greenview Hotel’s platinum member. We’ll naturally take good care of him.”
“Let’s ignore favonovel.com and drink then!” Jadon glanced at the sleeping Titus and said with a laugh

While Sean and others were drinking to their hearts’ content, Kennedy and Curtis sat at home with gloomy expressions. Only a few insect chirps rang outside the yard in the night.
“Dad, are we just going to forget what happened today?” Curtis asked in a deep voice, hatred glimmering in his eyes.
Kennedy glanced at him, slowly got up, and looked up at the stars.
“The Lake family is no longer what it used to be. With our power now, few people in Ocean City dare to oppose the Lake family! Sean’s just a little bastard from out of town. How dare favonovel.com send me coffins because Michael, Theodore, and Jadon have his back!”
“Tell me everything you know about Sean…” Kennedy said slowly.
Although his voice was calm, it was icy.
Curtis’s expression changed slightly before favonovel.com slowly said,” As far as I know, Sean owns Optimus Security Services and Optimus Clinic. He seems to be a skilled doctor. He treated Theodore and Michael, which is why they’re with him. I don’t know his story with Jadon yet… Also, Optimus Security Services’ members are strong. They seem to have wiped out the Crimson as well.”
Speaking of Crimson’s demise, Curtis clenched his hands tightly as his face darkened to the extreme.
Crimson was the Lake family’s ace. Few people in Ocean City knew this.
Over the years, Crimson had helped the Lake family eliminate their competitors. With their help destroyed, there was no way that Kennedy and Curtis were not angry.
“Can you confirm that Optimus Security Services took down Crimson?” Kennedy asked in a cold voice, his piercing eyes locked on Curtis.
Curtis froze. He hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, “It’s highly likely. Christopher has asked Crimson’s assassins to kill Sean before. Other than that, Crimson hasn’t taken on any assignments lately.”
Kennedy nodded slightly and looked at Ocean City’s bright lights in the distance.
His eyes full of the vicissitudes of life glimmered in the dark with an unknown brilliance. No one knew what the head of the Lake family was thinking.
When Kennedy said nothing, Curtis left.
In front of outsiders, favonovel.com was the arrogant heir of the Lake family, but only favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com was an heir better kept under the table to Kennedy.
The night was silent until the next morning.
