"No wonder you are Crimson's leader. You indeed have some skills!"Zander exclaimed and changed the topic. "But if that's all you have, you'll soon be dead by my hands!""Bullshit! I'll see if you can still speak nonsense when I stab a dagger into your chest."Bloodhand took a step back and said as he stared at Zander.Zander smiled, and the dagger he was wielding suddenly became faster.It was the moment when he showed real strength.Bloodhand, who had felt death, was also instantly alert. Staring at the dagger in Zander's hand, he fought Zander's dagger with his own.Ding! Ding! Ding!The two daggers kept clashing, making clanging noises.For a moment, neither of them could do anything to the other, but Zander was still calm, while Bloodhand looked slightly tired as his breathing became heavier.The two seemed evenly matched, but it was Zander who gradually gained the upper hand."Brother Zander got into a fight with Bloodhand."Hurry up and get rid of this trash so we ca
"Since I won't survive today, you'll die with me!"Bloodhand's eyes were red, and he looked like a demon who had crawled out of hell.A dagger gleamed coldly as it stabbed Daniel with blinding speed.Daniel's expression changed at this. He understood the difference in his and Zander's strength and naturally knew Bloodhand was stronger than him."Daniel!""Watch out, Daniel!"Two of the Brown brothers who saw their eldest brother being targeted by Bloodhand also exclaimed.Facing Bloodhand's dagger, Daniel only felt that death had come for him, and he was about to die."How dare you attack my comrade in front of me. Aren't you underestimating me?"Ding!The next second, the dagger was stopped by another dagger, and Zander's impassive voice rang.Bloodhand's dagger was now within a finger's distance of Daniel's face. If Zander had been a second later, the dagger would have stabbed into Daniel's face."Whew..."Daniel heaved a sigh of gratitude and looked gratefully at Zander
Optimus Security Services."Mr. Lennon, Crimson has been wiped out. None of Crimson's members survived."Zander said as he looked respectfully at Sean.Zander did not mention how he wiped out Crimson and only told Sean the result.Sean nodded slightly and said with a smile, "You must have had some luck in wiping out Crimson so quickly.""Yes! But I've found an opportunity to wake everyone up. I'm going to double the intensity of their training later."Zander answered with a chuckle.Sean nodded and said, "Not bad. Make them stronger as soon as possible. Our enemies will only get stronger. I don't want to see anyone die!"Have you made arrangements for the Lake family over the next two days?"Zander immediately replied, "I've informed everyone, but I can't contact the Quartz family. You might need to inform Jadon personally, Mr. Lennon.""Alright, I'll inform Jadon later."Okay, you can leave and rest after working all night."Sean said with a nod.Zander left the office, a
The heir of the Lake family, who had usually been arrogant to anyone, was speaking somewhat obsequiously to the middle-aged man before him. "Even Mr. Winters is here. The Lake family has developed so fast over the years that even Mr. Winters came to the Lake family's manor!""Look at the Lake family's influence now. Even Mr. Winters, who's at the peak of power in Ocean City, won't underestimate the Lake family!""Hehe, don't worry about Mr. Winters and the Lake family. Think about whether your birthday present today will impress the Lake family!"...Many Ocean City's dignitaries had gathered in the manor. They were currently discussing Mr. Winters in low voices.After having a little chat with Mr. Winters, Curtis led Mr. Winters to the manor and had him sit somewhere at the front."Uncle Winters, have a seat first. I'll ask my father to keep you company!"Curtis said.However, Mr. Winters smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Your father is the star today. How can you let the
"Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend my father's 50th birthday!"With everyone watching, Curtis walked up to the crowd and spoke, displaying a graceful demeanor that a noble heir should have."Mr. Lake, you're too kind. We naturally need to congratulate Old Master on his 50th birthday!""That's right. The Lake family has contributed a lot to Ocean City's development over the years. We should all congratulate him!""Hahaha, Old Master Lake is still as energetic as before. He doesn't look old at all! If you ask me, today isn't the birthday of an old man but a young man!"...Everyone flattered him, humbling themselves as they spoke.Hearing the compliments, Curtis smiled and said again, "My father's the star today. I won't steal his thunder!"With that said, Curtis stepped back, and the head of the Lake family, Kennedy Lake, went up to the crowd."I'm glad you could be here to celebrate my 50th birthday."My home is your home today. Let's all enjoy our
"Is that what Curtis bought you for your birthday? I can't accept that."It's just a piece of emerald. Old Master Lake, don't take it to heart. Everyone in Ocean City knows you like antiques and paintings. I won't take away what you love."I won't take Moon Lake Painting."Mr. Winters waved his hand and said with a smile.Kennedy froze slightly, looking a little anxious as if he wanted to say something, but Mr. Winters interrupted him with a wave.Kennedy said nothing more.With Mr. Winters' position, he could get anything he wanted.That imperial emerald and the Moon Lake Painting were precious to everyone else, but it was nothing much to Mr. Winters."The patriarch of the Willard family, Chester Willard, presents an emerald pendant and a pair of bracelets to Old Master Lake, wishing him happiness and a long life!"The chairman of Tiara Group, Benjamin Settler, presents a pair of antique vases for Old Master Lake, wishing him a long life!"The patriarch of the Xavier family,
Giving coffins was not a good gesture at any time.Today was the head of the Lake family—Kennedy's 50th birthday, but the four of them joined hands to give the head of the Lake family coffins.It was no doubt a slap in the face for the Lake family."Michael, Theodore, Jadon, and Sean are so brazen!""These three patriarchs never had problems with the Lake family, so why did they do this all of a sudden?""I don't know, but I have a feeling that Old Master Carver, Old Master Davis, and Mr. Quartz probably did this because of Sean!""Who is this Sean? How did he get these three patriarchs to do this with him?"...All the guests in Lake Residence looked confused, but some people who knew Sean's identity began to tell the people around them about Sean and Optimus Security Services.When everyone heard that Sean was just the owner of a security firm, everyone felt disbelief.The owner of a small security firm was able to get the patriarch of the Carver family, the patriarch of th
Everyone there had a clear idea of what was going on, so they all sat quietly in their places. No one got up.At Lake Residence's courtyard, Curtis, who came out first, looked hostilely at the four people before him.Sean stood at the front, while Michael, Theodore, and Jadon stood behind him.The three most famous patriarchs in Ocean City were standing behind Sean as if they were his sidekicks.Next to the four men stood four coffins as tall as men.The coffins were coarse, so you could tell they were cheap. The coffins were sent at this time purely to insult the Lake family."Sean! What are you trying to do?"Curtis glared at Sean and asked through clenched teeth.Although the Lake family was powerful, Ocean City's dignitaries sat in Lake Residence. Even with the Lake family's power, they could not shut everyone's mouth.Word about today was bound to get out, and soon everyone in Ocean City would know.Sean chuckled and said, "As you can see, we sent your dad coffins!"Hea
