Chapter 1903
Although they still had no idea who Sean was or where he came from, they could already tell Sean was not Chief Police Wholeton's subordinate.It was because even Chief Police Wholeton dared not go against the Yale family. If Sean was really Gabe's subordinate, how could he go against the Yale family without Gabe’s protection?"There are so many talents out there."An old man in his seventies glanced at Sean in the back row and said slowly."It looks like things are going to change for us in Midwich." Another person said as if anticipating something.The auction continued.The next auction item came on stage, and the atmosphere in the auction room gradually became bustling.Gabe grimaced as he said to Sean, "Sir, would you please give me a heads up before doing anything? I was scared to death.""Are you scared of such a small incident? You're a very good chief of police."Zander was not mocking him; he was just joking.Gabe said with a sigh, "A chief of police has a lot of pow
Chapter 1904
How expensive!Most of the people present did not have the financial means to buy such a hotel.However, a small group of people was also interested in East World Hotel.It included the patriarch of the Sheldon family—Caden, sitting on the far left of the first row, and the patriarch of the Jensen family—Fernando!"Here comes the fun."Fernando said as he rubbed his hands together, his face flushed."Dad, are we bidding on East World Hotel? Why didn't you tell me?" Jonathan asked.Fernando glanced at his precious son before snapping with a laugh, "If I told you, wouldn't you have announced it to everyone? It's a trade secret. How could I tell you so easily?"Jonathan nodded in understanding and agreement.The patriarch of the Sheldon family—Caden, sitting on the far left of the first row, frowned slightly and said, "East World Hotel is up for auction. The Jensen family will go after it... They must win the hotel.""Should we bid then? The Sheldon family isn't in the real esta
Chapter 1905
On one hand, it was because the price increase was too large, so the guests present found it hard to comprehend for a moment.The other was because the bid was made by none other than a member of one of the top four families—the patriarch of the Jensen family, Fernando!The Jensen family had spoken up. Who would now compete with the Jensen family?Of course, there were still people who dared to compete, but they were still in the minority."Haha, we want East World Hotel. No one's going to give us a hard time, right?"Fernando got up with a smile and gestured to the guests.The guests around him looked at Fernando's smile and buttered him up."Mr. Jensen, since you have your eye on East World Hotel, the rest of us won't compete with you, of course.""Yeah, we're not interested.""We're not in the real estate business, so we're not interested in running a hotel. Mr. Jensen, you can have it if you want it."Fernando was in a good mood as he heard so many compliments and flatter
Chapter 1906
Caden was so mad that his beard trembled, and he said, "I'm still adding one million dollars. 81 million dollars!"Fernando sneered and said, "Do you think I won't add more? I bid 85 million!""86 million!"Fernando was not backing down.The guests present were so shocked that their scalps tingled.They were two of the top four families in Midwich.The competition between the Sheldon family and the Jensen family was intense. No one was backing down!East World Hotel's price was now close to 90 million, which was something the vast majority of guests did not have. They could only watch the bidding greedily.The Yale family seemed uninterested and remained silent throughout."Mom, aren't we going to bid?" Sherman asked with a smile.Sherleen shook her head and said, "We came to the auction today for Dr. Humphrey's 30 medical books. I'm not interested in anything else. Besides, the Yale family is not short of business. We're having problems keeping all our subsidiaries in contro
Chapter 1907
It was a threat from two noble families! An outright threat!If the average person were to confront the Jensen family and the Sheldon family at the same time, they would probably have peed their pants.However, Sean was undaunted as the look on his face did not change at all."Did you hear what I said?" Fernando slammed onto the table and shouted.Caden also snapped, "Young man, you have an exaggerated opinion of your abilities..."Sean held up the auction paddle again before he could finish speaking."I've changed my mind. I'll raise my bid by 20 million to a total of 120 million for East World Hotel!"120 million!Before Caden and Fernando could increase their bid, Sean did it first!Besides that, he added 20 million right away!The guests were so shocked that their brains were buzzing as if they had a hive of bees in their brains.Sean's action could be said to leave no face for the two noble families. It was almost equivalent to humiliating them in front of everyone.Th
Chapter 1908
Sean turned to look at Fernando and asked with a smile, "It's 150 million now. Mr. Jensen, are you going to continue competing with me?"Fernando's face was so gloomy that he wanted to say yes, but he could not make up his mind at the sky-high price of 150 million.After all, the momentum Sean was building was too powerful.There was no way Fernando could guarantee that he could outbid Sean, so what if Sean kept increasing the price?Keith on stage smiled and reminded him, "Mr. Lennon bid 150 million for East World Hotel. Is there anyone offering a higher bid? 150 million going once... 150 million going twice...""Dad!"Jonathan tugged at Fernando's sleeve again.However, Fernando hesitated to continue his competition with Sean."Sold for 150 million! Sold! East World Hotel goes to Mr. Lennon!"Keith knocked the gavel with a thud.It was settled.Sean had taken over East World Hotel for 150 million Dragon dollars.Sitting next to Sean, Zander remained calm, but Gabe was swe

After all, it was a free profit out of nowhere, and it was so big.After all, East World Hotel's net revenue was about 30 million to 40 million a year. What was the bonus for 20% of the shares?Six to eight million!That was a lot of money!"Just take it when I give it to you!" Sean said earnestly.Gabe nodded excitedly at this, "Alright, I see. I'll work hard for it, Commander!"It was getting late, and Gabe quickly drove away and returned to his place.Sean entered the hotel with Zander.As soon as Sean entered the hotel lobby, he saw all the female attendants and male security guards forming two separate lines to greet him and Zander respectfully."Welcome back, Boss!"The greeting in unison was novel to Sean and Zander.Zander said to Sean with a chuckle, "Commander, you're the boss again.""What do you mean 'again'?"Sean glared at Zander, and Zander shut up.A middle-aged woman in a black suit and skirt walked over with two slightly younger women."Boss, we receive
Chapter 1910
Then Sean went upstairs with Zander.The Harris family's auction had sent over the 30 medical books Sean had won. They were now sitting in Sean and Zander's suite.After returning to his room, Sean sat on the sofa and carefully read the 30 medical books.These 30 medical books were indeed written by Dr. Humphrey as the texts were filled with bits and pieces of Dr. Humphrey's extensive medical practice.Thirty books were the true portrayal of Dr. Humphrey's medical career and the concentration of his experience and knowledge.Sean lost track of time as he read, and it was already 1 a.m. at some point."Time to rest, Commander."Zander came over and said."What time is it?" Sean asked."It's 1 a.m."Zander replied helplessly.It was only 10 p.m. when they went upstairs, and Sean had been reading for more than three hours, which left Zander speechless."What great books. Spending ten million to buy them is worth every penny!"Sean patted the book in his hand and said with som
