Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At the entrance of the auction, Zack was eyeing Sherry Jones with interest, a strange glint in his eyes that clearly suggested a certain lust for her.
“So, old acquaintances have become so estranged now? Are you representing the Jones Family?”Zack said casually, not sparing Sherry a serious glance.
Seeing his attitude, Sherry instinctively shrank behind White Mitchell and whispered, “Brother, he is the Zack I mentioned to you before.”
White Mitchell nodded upon hearing this, but he didn’t take Zack seriously, and said dismissively, “You are in the way, kindly step aside.”
Zack, hearing this, glanced at White Mitchell, a smirk playing on his face. “I recognize you. You’re the bastard that Logan Jones picked up, huh? You’re out of jail so soon?”
Zack’s father used to be a loyal subordinate of Logan Jones in GH Company, hence, he had met White Mitchell several times in the past.
However, the White Mitchell he remembered was full of vitality, a true prince.
But now, things were different. GH Company now belonged to the Thomas Family, and White Mitchell had spent five years in jail.
One could say that the wheel of fortune had turned, and this year, it was his family’s turn. Zack now showed no regard for this jailbird, White Mitchell.
“Move!” White Mitchell’s face darkened, and he spoke in a cold voice.
But Zack remained still, as if he hadn’t heard him at all, instead, he said provocatively, “People who’ve been to jail do have a bigger temper.
But guess what, I’m not scared of that. Today’s auction is attended by renowned individuals, and you and your sister are not worthy of entering!
Of course, if you’re willing to let Sherry spend the night with me, perhaps, I might consider, out of the kindness of my heart, letting you stay in a corner.”
With that, Zack burst into a mocking laughter, his eyes filled with lust were fixed on Sherry.
He didn’t notice that White Mitchell’s expression had turned ice cold.
However, just as White Mitchell was about to teach Zack a lesson, Sherry tightly grabbed his hand and said, “Brother, don’t lose your temper. We’re here for the auction.
It was clear that Sherry didn’t want to cause a scene, fearing it could affect their participation in the auction.
White Mitchell slowly turned around, looking at Sherry gently, “Don’t worry, even if I tear this place apart today, our father’s company is still ours.”
Having said that, White Mitchell turned around abruptly, and a chilling aura fell across his face at that moment.
“Do you want to play?” White Mitchell asked in a deep voice.
Zack gave a cold smile, completely shrugging off White Mitchell’s anger and even said provocatively, “What if I do…? Even if I wreck you today or ruin her, what would you…”
Before he could finish his sentence, White Mitchell’s expression tightened and he swung out a kick.
With a thud, Zack was kicked away, and immediately after, White Mitchell closed the distance with a single step.
Before Zack could react, White Mitchell picked him up and said, “How about I join you in this game?”
A gasp around.
Zack’s face suddenly turned taut, and he looked somewhat panicked.
“You… you dare to hit me? You’re doomed! Security! Security! Security! A alarmed Zack began to yell.
At this moment, the security guards of the auction rushed over.
“What’s going on!?” Just then, an authoritative voice suddenly emanated from inside the auction house.
Subsequently, a middle-aged man with a stern face rushed to the scene.
Seeing Zack being held in the air by White Mitchell like a dead dog, he was immediately filled with rage.
“I command you to stop now! This is GH Company’s auction! This is not a place for you to act recklessly!” The middle-aged man roared.
At this point, Sherry hurriedly rushed to White Mitchell’s side trying to pacify him, but he seemed to be completely ignoring her.
Holding Zack, he slowly turned his head to look at this middle-aged man.
“White Mitchell? You’re out?” The middle-aged man finally recognized White Mitchell and blurted out, his tone filled with anger.
To White Mitchell, this man was an old acquaintance. He was an old loyalist of GH Company, one of his father’s trusted subordinates, and also Zack’s father, Chris.
But White Mitchell had no warm feelings for this Chris.
If it wasn’t for his betrayal – leaking information about potential buyers of GH Company to the Thomas Family – the Thomas Family would not have been able to intimidate other buyers and lower the selling price of GH Company.
As for the benefits the Thomas Family gave him, it was quite evident from his current position what he must have received.
Chris used to be just a sales department manager in GH Company, but once the Thomas Family had bought the company, he was immediately promoted to the position of vice president.
His promotion was indicative of the monetary benefits he must have received. “You want me to let your son go?” White Mitchell looked at Chris with amusement.
Chris’s face darkened and he locked his eyes onto White Mitchell’s, like a venomous snake staring at its prey, “Release him now, and I promise we can pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise, you can expect to spend a few more years in jail.”
Everyone could tell that Chris’s words were just temporary concessions, fearing that once White Mitchell releases his son, he would exact revenge.
“Fine! I’ll give you back your son right now!” White Mitchell gave a cold smile.
Even Chris did not expect White Mitchell to agree to release his son so easily.
However, before Chris could rejoice, White Mitchell let go, and then abruptly delivered a kick to Zack’s ass.
Zack flew towards Chris and collided with him. Unable to control his own body, Chris was knocked down by his son.
Immediately after, there was a loud thump, and father and son both fell to the ground in a rather undignified manner.
“Kill him! Kill him for me!! Chris, laying on the ground, roared with rage.
At this moment, the security guards all looked at each other, not one of them daring to make a move on White Mitchell.
White Mitchell gave a cold smile and looked down at the fallen Chris and Zack. Just then, another middle-aged man came out of the auction house.
“Chris! What on earth are you two doing? What’s with all this commotion?
Don’t you know the esteemed guests from Royal Group will arrive, soon…”
The furious middle-aged man rushed to the scene only to stop dumbfounded at the sight of the chaotic scene.
What’s this…?
Observing the wrecked scene, his expression instantly turned dark.
Seeing this middle-aged man, Chris and Zack immediately began to complain, “Mr. Thomas, these two are Logan Jones’s children, they started the trouble! Look what they’ve done to us!
Call the police, arrest them! White Mitchell has a past criminal record, and this is a public provocation.. I’m going to sue him for intentional assault, I’m going to make sure he goes to jail!”
