Chapter 83 Determined to Win
Just when the bidding at the auction became white hot,
the Sherland Guardians, headed by Veronica, arrived at the Lewis Club gradually.
The owner of the Lewis Club, Isaac Mason, was a middle–aged man in his forties with a strapping body, a firm face, sharps, and cold eyes that were like wolves.
According to hearsay, this man came from an influential family and had much power himself. He had even won several championships in underground boxing matches.
Nowadays, he was in charge of the Lewis Club with support from the East Sea, and the daily turnover on his account was tens of billions. He was even as powerful as Blackdrake, the underground tycoon in Sherland.
“Your Excellency! I’m sorry I didn’t come and greet you sooner!”
Isaac greeted Veronica with a smile.
He kept humble and polite before her.
It wasn’t that Isaac was afraid of Veronica, but rather the official uniform on her.
He owned the Lewis Club, but she was the Commander of Sherland Guardians. He couldn’t afford to offend her.
“I’m here to investigate the jade case! Please be cooperative!”

Veronica gave him a brief explanation that the jade tainted with poison was first found here.
Hearing this, Isaac immediately understood what she was referring to, but he still covered
smile, “We have a lot of things to be auctioned here. I can’t remember all of them.”
“But don’t worry, Your Excellency. We have detailed records of all the auction items here.”
“The Lewis Club will fully cooperate with your investigation.”
With that said, Isaac personally led Veronica and her party into the spacious reception room. “Please wait here, Your Excellency, I will be cooperative and bring all relevant records to you.” After settling down Veronica and her men, Isaac took a brisk walk and gave orders to his men. “Simplify the auction process, end it as soon as possible, and get ready to leave.”
His assistant was surprised. “You want the auction to continue? Sherland Guardians are here. Perhaps we should end it now.”
“Don’t worry.” Isaac turned to look in the direction of the reception room with a cold face. “They can’t get out of there, at least for a while!”
Boom!
On the other side, Leones had just bid 5 billion. However, instead of getting a higher bid, he heard the door of his box being suddenly kicked open.
Leones turned his head to look.
A sturdy man with a fierce face stood at the door. He was nearly two meters tall with a burly figure, almost completely blocking the entire door.
This person was none other than James Sean, the muscle man from the other box.
“You must be the man who bid five billion just now, aren’t you?” James snarled.

“Yes!” Leones nodded calmly.
Seeing that he found the right person, James’s complexion changed again. He warned in a cold voice, “Boy, my master wants me to give you a message. We are the Johnsons from Fatuma, and we are here for that thousand year old medicinal mushroom. We hope you can favor us and withdraw. from the bidding.”
They were the Johnsons from Fatuma!
Mr. Harrison, who had just woken up slowly, was shocked when he heard it.
“Are you talking about the Johnsons, the richest family in Fatuma?” Mr. Harrison asked in
surprise.
“Well…” James smiled proudly. “Who else in Fatuma dares to claim themselves from the Johnsons?”
Mr. Harrison was shocked and terrified to hear it.
He was shocked because Leones dared to raise the price to five billion!
He was terrified because the other party turned out to be the richest man in Fatuma!
“Okay, okay!” Mr. Harrison hurriedly gave way. “Of course, we will do this favor to the Johnsons in Fatuma. We won’t bid anymore…”
In Mr. Harrison’s view, that would be the perfect solution. He would get himself out of the white–hot bidding and do a favor to the Johnsons. Why wouldn’t he do such a thing that could kill two birds with one stone?
“Shut up!” Leones snapped to interrupt Mr. Harrison, who was about to please the other “Who are you to speak here?”
party,
Mr. Harrison was surprised and thought to himself with a terrified look on his face, “No way… You are not considering continuing the bidding with the Johnsons for this thousand–year–old. Ganoderma lucidum, are you?”
“Your message is well–received.” Leones responded calmly, “Go back and tell your young master this is an auction. You have to bid for it no matter what you fancy, and only the highest bidder get it.”
“I don’t know any Johnsons or Hansons. So I won’t do you this favor!”
What?
As soon as he finished speaking, the air in the box suddenly froze.
Mr. Harrison’s eyes widened in horror, showing incredible fear, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
Leones dared to go against the Johnsons!
His action would cause more severe consequences than offending the entire auction house by winning the auction item without paying any money.
If he did offend the Johnsons in Fatuma, he would die very miserable!
“Ah…” Mr. Harrison was so frightened that he gasped hard. Before he could catch his breath, he rolled his eyes and passed out again from fright.
“Who the hell are you? What makes you think you can bid against our master?”
James became furious at the moment.
“Damn it! I didn’t want to do this to a nobody like you.”

“But since you are so full of yourself, I’ll follow my young master’s order and break your legs!
As he was speaking, James stepped forward and was about to beat Leones.
“Who said you could come in?”
Leones was enraged to see James kick his door open and enter uninvited, trying to hit him.
He slapped the table heavily, instantly knocking a porcelain cup on the table into the air.
In an instant, the cup cracked into countless fine pieces of porcelain.
With a wave, Leones shot pieces toward James, who had rushed into the box unprepared.
“Ah!!”
James let out a scream while covering his cheek.
The porcelain fragments were sharp as little blades covering all his face.
“My face!”
James covered his face and retreated subconsciously.
It wasn’t until then that he realized what a terrifying opponent he was facing.
It was just an ordinary porcelain cup. But this man could turn it into a lethal weapon!
What if those fragments were shot at his throat instead of his face?
If that were the case, he would be dead by now!
Thinking of this, James shuddered in fear.
No wonder this man wouldn’t back down when it came to the Johnsons from the Fatuma;
this guy was powerful enough to defy them.
“Go back and tell the Johnsons,” Leones said coldly, “I am also determined to get this millennium medicinal mushroom!”
