chapter 486
Hearing the noise, AugusCs eyes suddenly turned cold, and exuded a cold aura. "What are they trying to do?"
Burlon reported (he truth, 1 don'l know. They came w»th thugs. and aiter Ihey came here, they directly smashed up Several of our security guards were injured
August immediately got up and vyalked out, “Let's go and have a look.’
He took the elevator to the lobby, and as socn as he got out of the elevator, he saw the mess outside Martin and a dozen people stood in a row, each holding a stick, while the Lion Group's securily guards and the concierges stood in a row. standing in front of the elevator.
Augusts face suddenly darkened. As soon as the video was cxposed lhis morning, heguessed thai Martin would do something, but August didnt expect him totake such an extreme method. Before Martin had been a gangster, and he was vicious and cruel, 50 It was reasonable for bim to do this. "President Adams!" When the security guards standmg in front of the elevator savv August, it was as if they had seen a savior, and their eyes shone brightly.
August nodded slightly, and then ordered the people behind himi “Take them to the hospital, and have them checked and bandaged’
"Now?*
Yes"
Immediately, August's subordinate hesitated. Martin brought people here, and they still had weapons in their hands. The pcople on their side were all office vvorkers.and some of the secunty guards were injured. If they all leit now, Yvouldrit August be isolated and helpless? How can he fight against a dozen people and Martin?
Augusl knevv what the subordinate was thinking, but he insisted, "You go now.” Hearing this. his subordinate had no choice but to agree, and leit with the injured security guords.
Then, in the entire hall only August and Martin's people were leit, and they conironted each other. Before Martin said something, August had already stepped forvvard. Immedialely, Martiris subordinates hesitated whether to do somelhing.
Augusts eyes dimmed, and he glanced at those people, and finally looked at Martin,"Uncle Martin, vvhat are you doing?"
Martiris eyes were cold, and he said coldly, “August, as for the matter, you are excessive."
Surely. August knew vvhat he meant, so before he could mention It, he said, "I didn'1 expose that video."
*Do you think I will believe you? If The Kelly family is over, I will defimtely get back al you!"
Merlin next to him also echoed, "Thats righl, August. You divorced my sister, and now shés very miserable, and you also expose the video to make the Kelly family rum, then wc have nothmg to vvorry about’ Barefoot people are not airaid of people wearing shoes Ii we die, you musl die with us!"
August directly ignored Merlin, took two steps forward, looking at Martin and said, "Uncle Martin, you have wronged me. It isrit good for the Lion Group if I expose the video. I won't make the loss- making business. Besides, the outside vvorld is stanng at U5 now. If you make us in a stalemate, which is not god for both us."
Martin snorted coldly. and simply pointed out, "August, are you overestimating yourseli? How do you cnsure thai after I confront you. I won't have more friends? Ailer all, in Austos City the people who don't like the Lion Group are not only me.”
Hearing this. August raised his brovvs slightly and his eyes became colder. It seemed that Martin was prepared. Before. he vvould not have the courage to come and coniront August, but now, he clearly had a backer. Feelmg a little uneasy in his heart, August said in a low voice, "How do you want to solve Et?" Martin brought people over because he wanied to fight for his own interests. Martin sneered, I don't need to care ior other matters, but since you and Jean divorced, you should give her some compensation” I
August asked in a low voice, “Whal do you v/ant?"
Martin said withoul hesitdtion. Two luxury houses in downlown Austos City, and 15%of the Lion Groups performance shares *
Hearino this, everyone present was shocked Martin was very greedy Not to mention the two luxury houses in the urban arca. the 15% of lhe Lion Groups performance shares had already been much Now. the cash couldn't salisiy him, and he should vvonl 15% of the shares, which showed how ambitious he was.
Augusls complenon darkened. and he saidcoldly, “Don t think about II * As ior the Lion Group*s shaies, in addition to his and Bishops. Eliot &lso had some, and the rest were held by large and small shareholders. Martin demanded 15% of the shares. and the intention was definilely not simple. Heanng his retusal, Martin's face became ruthless He looked at his subordinates, and before he could issue orders. Augusts voice sounded, Uncle Martin, even if you smashed the Lion Group, you won*t be given the shares You blatanlly grabbed shares, and if it was exposed, the Kelly family will be mocked even more in Austos City."
Hearing these vvords came out, Martiris face became cold. He suddenly regretted that he had made his intentions so obvious at the beginning, He said coldly, "I came here to defend my daughter. August, don't you knovv how much you owe us? As he said that, he stepped forvuard, and a group of thugs beside him followed him.
August stood on the spot, watching the approaching crovvd, being still. The atmosphere became more and more serious. He did not retreat, nor hide. Merlin suddenly stepped forward, and svvung his hand holdmg a slick towards him. August raised his hand, blocked it with his elbovv, and then quickly grabbed the other end of the stick, and pushed forward directly.
Merlin felt a pain in his chest. He let out a cry of pain, and took two steps back. Then he found that the stick in his hand before was in AugusVs hands. He quickly backed away in shock, looked at Martin next to him and said, "Oad>" Thugs also Looked at Martin, and waited for his order.
The atmosphere was terrifying. August was alone, holdmg a stick. He needed to dal with more than a dozen people. There was huge disparity in the number of people, and he was afraid it would not be so easy to deal with.
At this moment, a group of people suddenly appeared a the gate, 2 dense crowd. about 20 or 30 people. Burton took the lead and surrounded from the gate Martin's people immediately turned around, and when they saw the people surraundmg them, pamcked expressions flashed across their faces. These people ao had the weapons, and they had twice as many people as Martins people. f they really tought, they won't take advantage of i. Martirs face suddenly turned cold. Beiore he could speak his subordinates panicked.
Burton led the people forward. raised his eyes to look at August over there, and waited for his instructions. At tis ime, If Marti insisted on fighting again, there would be something wrong with his brain. A trace of cruelty lashed in his eyes, and he looked at August coldly, "August, there is still mo'e time in the (uture. Tris matter wil ct be ended cash!"
As he said that, he signaled his subordinates to relreat. Merlin was stil unwiling to leave, “Dad, are we going to leave ike this?”
Martin said coldly, “Gol” Merlin turned his head indignantly. He looked at August and pointed at him with his index finger. and then eft with Martin. A group of people passed through the gate and let in a mighty way.
Burton immediately stepped forward and asked, “President Adams, are you alright?”
August raised his eyes. staring at the direction they left, without saying a word. He clenched the stick fightly in is hand, and two seconds later, with a rack’. the stick broke. Martin brought people here, which meant he iit plan to tum back. They were so embarrassed that the situation in the future would be even more pessimistic. What was even more frightening was that he stil didn't know who the backer behind Marin was.
