Before Jagoan could speak, Titus smacked his lips and said with a smile, “Winnie, don’t worry. Didn’t you see how strong is Mr. Young? You can’t find another person that strong in the entire Ocean City!”
“Security firms aren’t like other companies. Security firms are all about strength! What can Kennedy do when Mr. Young is around?”
Jagoan only chuckled and said nothing.
Winnie felt even more worried when she saw them. Although she was a female, Trenton had told her some of their plans, and she knew them as well as Titus.
She knew full well that if the Lake family’s second and third branches failed to overthrow Kennedy, a tragic end would await them. However, she did not know Jagoan well, so she could not comment much.
Ding!
Titus’ phone rang suddenly. He turned on his phone and saw a text message from his father.
Aaron: [8 p.m. Greenview Hotel. Lake Security Services’ opening.]
It was just one line, but it made Titus’ pupils widen. He did not expect Kennedy to be so quick. Everything had been arranged in just one day.
To set up a security company, one would need a group of strong men besides money.
Kennedy was indeed the head of the Lake family. He had gathered enough men in just one day to set up a security firm in one night.
Ring, ring, ring!
Before Titus could tell Jagoan what he had learned, Jagoan’s phone rang suddenly.
The caller ID showed that it was Old Master Carver, and Jagoan picked it up immediately.
Jagoan looked calm as he chuckled and answered, “Don’t worry, Old Master Carver. These are nothing. I’ll be there tonight to see what Kennedy is capable of…”
After a brief conversation with Michael, Jagoan hung up the phone.
Shortly after the phone hung up, Jadon and Theodore called Jagoan, saying pretty much the same thing.
After answering the phone calls, Jagoan’s phone fell silent.
Knock, knock, knock!
Jagoan shook his head and smiled before saying somewhat helplessly, “Come in!”
