Chapter 2335

"You losers are nothing but pests to the Shawson family!

Mike yelled angrily, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at the blonde leader.

The blonde leader shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Young Master Shawson, you probably don't know

that Mr. Lake not only gave us a million dollars, but he also promised to handle the Shawson family.

"Young Master Shawson, instead of threatening me, you might as well ask whether the Shawson family can handle

Mr. Lake.

"With the Lake family's influence, surely the Shawson family is also scared to provoke them.

"Young Master Shawson, how do you think the Lake family members would react if they knew you've asked us to

teach Mr. Lake a lesson?"

All the blonde leader knew was that Titus was heir to the Lake family's second branch, but that did not stop him

from using Titus to scare Mike.

Besides, Titus never said he would handle the Shawson family, but the blonde leader was not stupid. He wanted to

scare Mike and the Shawson family behind him into leaving him alone.

Titus and the Lake family's second branch behind him was the best shield.

"Titus is only the heir of the Lake family's second branch. What right does he have to be called the heir of the Lake

family?

"Just by his status in the Lake family, what right does he have to let the Lake family go after the Shawson family?

"Even if you want to scare me, say something more believable."

Unfortunately, Mike saw through the blonde leader's attempt to bluff him.

The blonde leader raised his eyebrows, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Forget it. I won't lie to you either, Young

Master Shawson.

"After crippling you today, I'll escape with the boys. Even if the Shawson family has some influence in Ocean City,

can you go to other cities or even other provinces to give us trouble?"

With that said, the blonde leader waved his hand.

A group of thugs behind him immediately understood and surrounded Mike with hostile gazes.

"Blondie! I'll pay you two million dollars. Don't do it!"

Surrounded by a group of thugs, Mike got scared and shouted immediately.

Hearing this, the group of thugs ready to strike immediately stopped and turned their heads to look at the blonde

leader.

The blonde leader smiled and shook his head as he said to Mike, "Young Master Shawson, you're overthinking.

We're not afraid of you and the Shawson family behind you.

"But that doesn't mean we dare to disobey Mr. Lake!

"Don't just stand there. Hurry up, I'm going to book the tickets and leave Ocean City overnight!"

Once he said that, the thugs surrounding Mike stopped holding back, grabbed their steel pipes, and smashed them

onto Mike's arms and legs.

"Ah! Stop it!

"Stop!

"I'll pay you..."

Mike's screams, the muffled thud of steel pipe hitting human flesh, and the slight but jarring crack of bone came

from the alley.

The blonde leader and the others might only be thugs, but they were still ruthless.

However, Mike had passed out from the pain within ten minutes.

His limbs were now splayed onto the ground, clearly broken.

"Let's go to the train station!"

The blonde leader said without staying any longer.

The thugs were orphans or people who had long severed ties with their families, so nothing was holding them back.

They then followed the blonde leader on a journey to another land.

Mike lay quietly in the alley like a dead man until more than an hour later when someone passed by and found him

and immediately called the hospital.

As Mike was taken to the hospital for treatment, the blonde leader and others were already on the train to faraway.

Many thugs looked out the window at Ocean City with a glimmer of nostalgia in their eyes, but it quickly

disappeared.
