Theodore, Michael, and Jadon naturally noticed Curtis’ intention, and the three of them stepped back and stood behind Sean.
The three men said nothing, ignoring Curtis.
Seeing this, Curtis’ anger grew as he slowly clenched his fists, but he slowly released them when he saw the crowd behind Sean.
Curtis took a deep breath and looked coldly at Sean. “Sean, what’s the meaning of this?”
“Lake Security Services opens for business today. My father buried the hatchet and is kind enough to invite you to the opening ceremony. What are you trying to do by bringing all these people?”
Curtis almost roared out at the end of the speech, showing the anger in his heart.
Sean glanced at the crowd of Optimus members behind him and said with a smile, “We’re here for the opening ceremony!
“Old Master Lake created Lake Security Services in such a short time. I’m worried that he doesn’t have enough men, so
I brought the boys here to make the ceremony look good.
“Is the Lake family unable to afford to treat my men to a meal? Or is Old Master Lake unwilling to spend this little money?”
Sean sounded like he was doing it for Curtis’ good, and it infuriated Curtis.
His eyes reddened slightly as he stared at Sean and said,” Get your men to get lost immediately! The Lake family doesn’t need your help!”
“Curtis, you’re only a junior in the Lake family. You have no right to talk to Mr. Lennon like that!”
Theodore frowned slightly, looked in displeasure at Curtis, and added, “Get Kennedy to come out and talk!”
Michael also said with a chuckle, “Get Kennedy to come out. Don’t let others think we seniors are picking on you.”
Sean looked at Curtis with a half-smile.
Curtis solemnly glanced across them before turning around to enter the venue hall.
