At the auction!
After ending his phone call and summoning someone, Ethan Herb sat his ass down no more than a dozen meters away from White Mitchell.
Over to the side, Blake Thomas and his son Chris were fanning him and massaging his legs, clearly trying to curry favor with him.
However, this clearly didnât assuage Ethanâs anger. If he didnât see White Mitchell get taken down today, he probably wouldnât let things go.
âFuck it! Go ahead and swagger around for now. Just wait until my people get here. Letâs see if you have the balls to kneel down and kowtow to me!â Ethan Herb cursed, his eyes never leaving White Mitchell as if afraid he would run away.
On the other hand, White Mitchell remained calm, with no intentions whatsoever of leaving.
Seeing this unfold, Sherry Jones was extremely worried and even considered pulling White Mitchell away from the place.
Just then, from outside the auction, a booming voice suddenly echoed.
âEthan Herb! Where the fuck is Ethan Herb?!â
The voice was filled with anger. Following that, a middle-aged man with a face burning with rage swiftly appeared on the auction floor.
It was none other than the chairman of the Royal Group, David Herb!
Quite literally, a top-dog in Sayonâs bustling business world.
To put it bluntly, when he sneezed, numerous others fell sick in Sayon.
âCha⦠Chairman?â
Ethan Herb, who had been sitting like a boss, instantly felt a chill down his spine when he saw David. He immediately scampered up and looked utterly terrified.
Within the next moment, Ethan Herb rushed over to David Herb with a submissive attitude, trying to flatter him.
âChairman, why did you come? You couldâve given me a heads-up. I wouldâve come to meet you.â Ethan Herb moved close, bending at his waist and showing a face full of enthusiasm.
âYou have the audacity to say that? If I didnât come, I wouldnât have known that you nearly landed us in a disaster.â David Herb was instantly fuming.
Just as Ethan Herb leaned in, David Herb slapped him mercilessly with his enormous hand.
A loud smacking sound echoed throughout the auction house.
Just hearing the sound, one knew that David Herb did not hold back one bit.
Having been slapped, Ethan saw stars and spun a few times before falling to the floor.
âCo⦠Cousin, why? Why did youâ¦?â A dazed Ethan Herb stared at David Herb in shock.
At this point, Blake Thomas and the others were frozen in place, too scared to move an inch.
âFuck off! Donât try to play kinship with me. Itâs been so many generations between you and me. If not for your abilities, I wouldâve sent you off to raise pigs in the countryside!
I never expected you to be so ungrateful, even ignoring me completely, and stirring such a massive trouble.
From now on, youâre fired! Get as far away from me as possible! I donât ever want to see you again!â David Herb roared furiously.
Had he not controlled the people in the company promptly, who knows what kind of disaster wouldâve ensued today.
Upon hearing this, Ethan Herb was dumbstruck, he quickly crawled to David
Herb: âCousin, this canât be true! You must be joking, right?â
Thump! David Herb immediately kicked Ethan Herb, turning him over. âJoking? Do you think I fucking look like Iâm joking?â
After kicking Ethan, David didnât bother to give him another glance and instead turned his gaze to White Mitchell.
But just as he was about to apologize, White Mitchell and a flustered Sherry Jones slowly approached him.
The moment he saw White Mitchell, David felt his heart skip a beat.
Others couldnât see it, but David Herb, long used to holding power, could see the extraordinariness of White Mitchell.
Although this man seemed young, every move he made radiated an aura of confidence and impressive energy.
Such confidence and energy, if not blind, must belong to the Mr. Mitchell Amanda spoke of, one who had an extremely clever mind!
With this in mind, David Herbâs demeanor towards White Mitchell immediately became respectful.
âMr. Mitâ¦â David Herb was about to address the approaching White Mitchell, only to be abruptly interrupted: âLittle sister, letâs go.â
Huh?
Sherry Jones looked at White Mitchell bewilderedly, then reluctantly at Blake Thomas: âBrother, what about fatherâs company?â
White Mitchell gave a light smile: âI think, tomorrow morning, someone will bring the transfer agreement to the Jones Family.â
Hearing this, Sherry Jones gave a bitter smile, how could that be possible?
However, the safety of White Mitchell was the most important thing at the moment, they should get away from this danger zone as soon as possible, as for GH Companyâs matters, they could think of a solution slowly.
Just like that, White Mitchell confidently led Sherry Jones away from the auction, with David Herb respectfully watching them leave the whole time.
Once White Mitchell was totally out of sight, only then did a serious look return to David Herbâs face.
âWhoever is the chairman of GH Company, did you all hear what Mr. Mitchell just said clearly!?â David Herb said coldly.
Huh?
Blake Thomas and the others were taken aback, frozen as if turned to stone, barely able to react.
âCousin, what Mr. Mitchell, isnât he just a jailbird?â Ethan Herb crawled over again but was kicked away by David Herb once more.
âIgnorant fool! You donât know who youâve offended and you dare to blabber, you deserve to be sent home to raise pigs! Get lost! If you dare leak a word of todayâs events, Iâll make sure you canât even raise pigs!â David Herb gritted his teeth in rage.
After hearing these words, Ethan Herbâs heart sank, a gloomy expression immediately took over his face.
Why is this happening? Why was David Herb so respectful towards White Mitchell? Who the hell did I offend?
Ethan Herb was filled with regret and hurriedly began to defend himself: n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âCousin, this isnât my fault, itâs all because of them, they incited me to do this.
They said that this Chen guy was just a bastard, heâd even been to jail, they told me to teach him a lesson, and I was confused for a momentâ¦
What?!
At those words, Blake Thomas and two others felt a jolt in their hearts, a chill rising from their feet to their skull.
The next moment, all three knelt in front of David Herb.
âMr. Herb, itâs not like that, we, weâ¦â Blake Thomas and the others begged for mercy, but David Herb responded with a cold laugh.
âGood job! Amazing! You dare to provoke a man that even I, David Herb, would not dare to offend? You are truly remarkable! Ha, haâ¦â
David Herbâs laughter was like an ice-cold knife, mercilessly stabbing at the hearts of Blake Thomas and the others, making them feel like their world was falling apart.
Itâs over, weâre finishedâ¦
The three of them slumped to the ground, their faces filled with anguish.
On the other side, after White Mitchell led Sherry Jones out of the hotel, he saw how she had been busy all day, he felt a pang of pity in his heart. So he directly took her back to the hotel to rest.
Returning to the hotel, an anxious Sherry Jones looked at White Mitchell, asking: âBrother, are we really going back to the Jones family tomorrow? But we still havenât fulfilled their conditions.
White Mitchell softly tousled her hair, saying: âHavenât you already finished two of them? Perhaps, the Thomas family will hand over fatherâs company tomorrow.â
Sherry Jones gave a bitter smile, her expression then froze as if she realized something, she looked at White Mitchell confusedly: âBro, how do you know Iâve completed two conditions?â
