Kian Dawson’s voice was low, but he sure sounded cocky.
“Go to hell...”
Ernie immediately got furious. How dare a little family like the Dawson talk to him like this?
But Leo just waved his hand and stopped him.
He then squinted his eyes and sized Kian up and down, “Why do you assume that I won’t hurt you?”
His eyes filled with curiosity.
All the other masters acted like they were doomed, but Leo was the only one who was undisturbed all this time.
Kian sneered, “Well, you’d better tell the master of the Palmer Family to let us go which is the best option for everyone involved.”
“Do elaborate yourself.” Leo suddenly got interested and sipped the wine.
Kian didn’t say anything and just turned to Ernie.
Though he knelt down before Leo, it was purely an instinct which was triggered by panic. He actually was less afraid of Leo after figuring out everything.
“Mr. Palmer, as one of the masters of powerful families in Hopkins, you should know that the Dawsons, the Mills, and the Bradley are just minions of the Watts, right?” Kian slowly said wearing confident smiles.
“So what then?” Ernie remained indifferent and suddenly understood why Kian was so cocky here.
Kian chuckled and suddenly got arrogant, “Since you know this, why don’t you let me go right now? You might not be afraid of me, but you got to be wary of the Watts Family. Am I right?”
Hearing Kian’s words, Jaiden Mills and Aaron Bradley froze a bit and then were less frightened.
Sophia said coolly, “Mr. Palmer, you should know that how much damage would be cost if two powerful families start attacking each other. Is it really worth it to make war with the Watts over a man who married into a family?”
Ernie didn’t say anything and just looked at them coldly.
Kian, Jaiden and Aaron thought that he got scared and was even more complacent, “Let us go and make this up with a fancy dinner and we will call this even.”
Ernie seemed to be irritated by their attitudes and sneered, “You might be mistaken, but you are on my turf and I’m the decision-maker here. You’re in no position to negotiate with me.”
“Are you kidding me? We’re protected by the Watts...”
“The Watts? Is it powerful?”
Before Kian can even finish his sentence, Leo stopped him indifferently.
They turned to Leo and instantly started roaring.
“What is this guy talking about? Does he really think that he can be all-might here just because he knew the master of the Palmer Family?”
Aaron pointed at Leo and was chortling.
“Master Aaron, I bet that this loser doesn’t even know how powerful is the Watts and is just bluffing.”
Sophia also stared chuckling. She was cocky again like Kian, Jaiden and Aaron for the same reason.
“Idiots!”
Ernie sneered and was sad how short-sighted these people were.
The Hopkins was really unstable these days.
The Hudsons was first eliminated, J Group was then forced to change its owner, the family mansion of the Watts was then dismantled and the auction in Hopkins yesterday was stirred.
All of these things were actually related to a low-profile young man and it was Leo!
But sadly, this information can only be obtained by some powerful families and these people here didn’t even get the right to know.
“Mr. Cohen, I will ask someone to deal with them at once...”
But Leo suddenly giggled and stopped Ernie.
“Master Palmer, the food is getting cold here. Hurry up and change them for our guests here.”
Ernie paused first and then paused, “Yes, Mr. Cohen.”
He then asked the manager to serve several fancy dishes.
