"That's enough! Shut up, Titus!" Kennedy bellowed at Titus with an angry look.Titus raised his eyebrows and answered with a sneer, "Uncle Kennedy, is that how you talk to your nephew? Besides, won't I lose my dignity if I shut up because you tell me to?"Titus then looked sideways at Aaron, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Am I right, Dad?""Yeah, no matter how powerful Kennedy is, he can't touch the second branch!" Aaron said, playing along.The Lake family's second and third branches and Kennedy's family were already openly rebelling, so Aaron would not give Kennedy any face.Looking at the father and son echoing each other, Kennedy trembled with anger."Aaron! Trenton! Have you two forgotten that you're part of the Lake family? You allied with outsiders to attack Reason Group. Do you want to bring down the Lake family so much?" Kennedy snarled, casting a grim glance over Aaron and Trenton.Aaron smiled and nodded, saying, "Kennedy, Trenton, and I have been dreaming about bri
There was a flash of anger in Kennedy's eyes as he looked at the men who had put Reason Group in its current state now shamelessly offered to do business with him.Their actions were no different than humiliating Kennedy. There was no way he would not be mad."Old Master Lake, calm down. It's not too late to refuse until I'm done speaking."Sean chuckled and added, "Reason Group's market value is now less than 20 billion. If we continue pressuring you, Reason Group will go bankrupt tonight. You will then lose Reason Group, so we came to talk to you about selling us 40% of your shares in Reason Group."Kennedy's face reddened as fast as the naked eye could see it.With fury all over his face, he glared at Sean and growled, "Bullshit! Even if Reason Group goes bankrupt, I won't sell my shares to you! You're quite scheming to go after Reason Group together to plummet its market value and then buy my shares at a bargain price. Hmph! I'm telling you! Dream on! I would rather let my sha
Ring! Ring! Ring!The phone rang rapidly and piercingly in Kennedy's pocket. It sounded like it was a bell signaling the end.Kennedy, who had been wondering what Sean and the others would do, was startled by the sudden ringing. He suppressed his shock and immediately answered the phone."Old Master Lake! The Lake family's businesses are under attack!"A frantic male voice came from the phone as soon as the call connected.Kennedy shuddered when he heard that.The Lake family's first branch had many assets, and Reason Group was only one of their many businesses. However, 70% of their assets came from Reason Group. Even if they combined all the other businesses, they were incomparable to Reason Group.However, his men called to say that the Lake family's other businesses were also being attacked. Most of the Lake family's remaining assets were shops and buildings. If someone did create trouble with them, the effect could be immediate.Kennedy took a deep breath to calm himself d
"Everyone has his place. Although you're powerful in Ocean City, you're nothing compared with the Lake family from Janestown! Mr. Max Lake could crush you with the flick of his fingers!"With disdain in his eyes, Sean took out his phone and sent a text.Titus pretended to look fearful and stammered, "Oh, I'm so scared. I'm scared to death. Even the second heir of the Lake family from Janestown is here. We're doomed... Mr. Lennon, we're doomed! We have no chance against the Lake family from Janestown. What can we do?"Sean glanced at him and said indifferently, "Be normal. My disciple will be here soon. If she sees you like this, she'll probably beat you until you won't be able to get out of bed for three days."Titus suddenly turned serious, scared to behave whimsically like he just did.Jadon and the rest smiled at Titus' obedience.Someone had scared the unruly Titus, whom Ocean City dignitaries had always deemed a chaotic demon. If word about this ever got out, it would shock
Kennedy went to a room in Lake Residence. He knocked carefully on the door and asked softly, "Mr. Max Lake, are you awake?""The young master doesn't like to be disturbed when he's sleeping."Kennedy had just finished speaking when a somewhat old voice rang beside him.Kennedy was startled by the sudden voice. He immediately turned and looked at the speaker—a thin old man in a suit.He knew the old man. After Max arrived last night, this old man had been helping Max with his daily routine. Kennedy remembered that Max had called the old man Mr. Shay. Max did not treat Don Shay like a servant but more like an elder.Kennedy could not help but humble himself slightly as he thought of it.He looked at Don and said solemnly, "Mr. Shay, I didn't mean to interrupt Mr. Max Lake's rest. It's just that there were some short-sighted fools at Lake Residence who not only attacked the Lake family but also insulted him."Don's gaze grew solemn, and his old eyes glimmered coldly. Don stared col
Kennedy immediately said, "Mr. Shay, come with me! With you around, those guys who humiliated Mr. Max Lake will regret their actions today!"Kennedy generously praised Don, but Don did not respond. Don's eyes filled with intense malice that could erupt at any moment.Seeing that Don was uninterested in his flattery, Kennedy stopped embarrassing himself and obediently led the way for Don."My dear Brother Curtis, you look like a useless loser in your wheelchair. Hahaha! Oh, think about how arrogant you were before. You were in the limelight as you were called the first heir of Ocean City, but what about me? I can only live in your shadow, being called the second heir of the Lake family. Look, not only did you bully me, but Uncle Kennedy also bullied my dad. Even so, you and Uncle Kennedy never seemed to want to leave us alone."Before Kennedy could bring Don closer, he heard Titus' voice full of unbridled laughter.Kennedy's expression instantly changed as he quickened his pace imm
"Curtis, don't worry. I'll cure you! Whatever it takes, I'll get you back on your feet!" Kennedy stammered as he held Curtis.Curtis tried to hold back the tears that were about to fall from his eyes and nodded sadly. He knew his condition, and there was little hope that he could ever stand back up.Seeing Kennedy and Curtis so concerned about whether Curtis could stand back up, Titus' eyes glimmered. Titus turned to Kennedy and said, "Uncle Kennedy, don't complain that I don't care about Brother Curtis! I know a way to get him back on his feet!"With that said, Kennedy and Curtis looked at Titus with a tinge of hope in their eyes.Curtis gulped with difficulty before replying, "Hurry and tell me! If I can recover, I can forget what happened and will give way when I see you in the future!"The thought of spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair filled Curtis with despair. Rather than being confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, Curtis would wipe the slate clean an
"Transfer all of Reason Group's shares to my name, and I'll help you," Sean replied with a smile after thinking about it for a moment.Kennedy's expression changed slightly. He owned 40% of Reason Group's shares. Even though Reason Group's market value had plummeted to less than 20 billion, 40% of shares were still worth billions. It would cost a fortune to get treatment from Sean.Curtis immediately looked at his father and said, "Dad, Reason Group is in jeopardy. It doesn't make much sense for you to own 40% shares either. Why don't you give the shares to Mr. Lennon so I can get back on my feet?"Kennedy frowned, his eyes full of conflict. He had assured Sean and the others that he would never give away Reason Group's shares, no matter what happened. He wondered if he was going back on his word now. Sean was probably the only person in Ocean City and the entire Dragon Kingdom who could cure Curtis."How troublesome. Can't you make this guy treat Mr. Curtis Lake after I capture hi
