Chapter 274 I Am Alex Jefferson
“F***! How dare you hit me.”
The vendor’s expression darkened as he was infuriated. “Punk, I see that you’ve got some guts. Very well, wait here if you’ve balls.”
Just as he spoke, he made a call with his phone.
Once he got through, he put it on speaker.
He obviously wanted everyone to hear the conversation.
“Hey, Bob, it’s me,” The vendor spoke into the phone and gloated at Alex.
Bob?
Flynn Dunn’s right hand man?
When the crowd heard the vendor mentioned that name, it sent a shiver down their spine.
There was only one Bob in Nebula City. He was renowned for his cruelty and even those with high power did not dare to offend him.
Little did everyone expect the vendor to have connections with him. Today’s matter was just starting to get worse..
At that moment, a deep voice was heard from the other end of the line, “What’s wrong, my dear cousin brother?”
This guy is Bob’s cousin?
After knowing this, who would dare offend the vendor again?
Although the Grant family sounded very powerful, it likely didn’t mean much in a small and secluded place like Nebula City. Maggie and her family would unlikely dare to cause–Bob any trouble.
In a blink of an eye, everyone started to fear for themselves, especially the antique shop owners who were now dumbfounded. They retreated a few steps back for fear of being implicated in the matter.
Meanwhile, Maggie bit her lips tightly.
From the crowd’s reaction, she gathered that the vendor’s patron was someone powerful.
As she came alone to Nebula City to run an auction at the branch here, she did not bring any bodyguards along. Therefore, she resigned to the fact that her three hundred thousand was gone.
“Alex, forget it. Let’s go.” Kate coaxed him softly as she too began to worry,
Although she didn’t like Alex much, she still didn’t want to see any harm come to him.
The vendor appeared to have the support of someone powerful.
“You want to leave now? No one is allowed to leave here today.”
The vendor roared, “Bob, while I was selling my items, someone came to cause trouble,”

The vendor explained as if he was the victim.
“What? Who dared someone cause trouble at your stall?” Upon hearing the vendor’s complaints, Bob was infuriated.
On a side note, Bob was having a tough time with this cousin of his.
The cousin was lazy and never bothered to look for honest work. He would always cause trouble and get into fights. Every time, Bob had to bail him out and clean up his mess.
Until recently, his cousin told him that he wanted to make money selling antiques. Therefore, he‘ borrowed some money from Bob and started a small antique stall.
It put Bob’s mind at ease to see his cousin finally doing something proper.
Although he roamed within the underworld, he knew it was a risky job and that he could lose his life anytime.
