Chapter 338 Do You Know Me?
Who could have expected that not only Laurence but even Zach, whose younger family member was assaulted, would be so polite to Lachlan!
Moreover, far from causing trouble for Lachlan, they went on to give a good thrashing to Zach's nephew and even urged Lachlan to take revenge? What... was going on?
Altha shook his goatee, his expression changing rapidly. Penelope widened her eyes, shocked beyond measure, not feeling the pain on her face anymore.
Harlow and Romeo were left dumbfounded!
Everyone who was watching was dumbfounded.
At this moment, Lachlan looked at Laurence and Zach with some surprise. He pointed to himself and asked inexplicably, "Do you know me?"
Upon hearing this, Laurence and Zach smiled bitterly at the same time while nodding.
"I know you of course! Mr. Willis, I am Laurence from the Austin family; now I basically run the family since my older brother Alexander has temporarily stepped back," Laurence nodded as he introduced himself.
The meaning behind his words was obvious: the Austin family is now under his leadership; Isa's father who caused trouble has stepped down! Let's just forget about any grudges between us Austin family members from now on, okay? Don't go crazy again someday attacking our family.
Zach also said, "I know you! We have to get acquainted with you, Mr. Willis!"
As one of the four families' heads in Capital, how could he not know who destroyed the Britt family?
He thought inwardly: You may not recognize me but I have to recognize you! Otherwise if something goes wrong with your aura, we might be flattened next time too.
"Oh hello there! Let me introduce myself; my name is Lachlan."
Lachlan nodded mainly towards Zach as a gesture of respect since it wasn't surprising for someone like Laurence from the Austin family to already know him well enough.
And since this middle-aged man had such a good attitude towards him as well, it made sense for Lachlan to introduce himself politely too.
"I understand... I understand..." Zack kept nodding repeatedly before pointing at Maxwell saying, "Mr. Willis, look at this little punk..."
Lachlan waved his hand, "It's fine. After all it wasn't anything serious!"
"It's good that nothing serious happened, haha!" Zack laughed before kicking Maxwell again, "Blind thing still hasn't apologized yet?"
Maxwell was now beaten swollen, trembling all over. But this time, there was no resentment or unwillingness in his eyes as he walked up to Lachlan honestly and said, "Lachlan, I'm sorry! I made a mistake..."
Although he was arrogant and domineering, he wasn't stupid! Even his own uncle had to be respectful towards Lachlan. How could he afford to provoke him?
At this moment, the other rich second-generation heirs also showed fear and nervousness, sweating profusely.
They never thought that the person they had been mocking and ridiculing all along turned out to be someone who even the heads of two major families had to treat carefully.
"I'm sorry Mr. Willis!"
"Mr. Willis, we were wrong. Please don't lower yourself to our level."
"Um... it's my fault for not seeing clearly."
"Mr. Willis, if you don't mind driving my 918, then please take it as a gift from me!" One clever rich second-generation heir offered his car keys while bowing obsequiously.
Lachlan smiled without hesitation and accepted them directly.
Otherwise, he would have needed someone else to drive him back or take public transportation which would have been too much trouble for him.
"Alright then, I can't be bothered with you kids anymore," Lachlan said waving his hand dismissively before leaving.
Hearing this, Laurence paused for a moment before asking, "Mr. Willis, aren't you here for the medical conference? Why are you leaving?"
What? Wasn't Lachlan here today specifically for the medical conference?
Could it be that he came just so that he could beat up these second-generation heirs?
Lachlan shrugged, "I was indeed invited by Mr. Pearce but since they want me gone now I can hardly stay here any longer."
Hearing this, Laurence turned around towards Altha coldly snorting, "Dr. Pearce, if you really want Mr. Willis gone, then perhaps your Medicine Association should find another venue for its
conference! Sorry but this manor is no longer available for rent. However, we'll double your deposit refund!"
Wintervale Manor, as it turned out, was the property of the Austin family.
Now that Laurence had just taken charge, what was he most afraid of? Of course, it was having another conflict with Lachlan!
If Lachlan, after learning that the Wintervale Manor belonged to the Austin family, was kicked out of here and later decided to cause trouble for the Austin family, what would they do? This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
As soon as these words fell, everyone present couldn't help but feel shocked beyond measure.
The Austin family went so far as to kick Altha and the Medicine Association out just for Lachlan, forcing the conference to move locations?
Altha's face couldn't have looked worse at this point. He took a deep breath and put on an embarrassed smile as he approached Lachlan. "Mr. Willis, please forgive me for my earlier behavior. I hope you won't hold it against me." Despite feeling humiliated and resentful, he knew they couldn't really move the conference elsewhere.
Meanwhile, Penelope bit her lip in shock and resentment as she watched Lachlan.
She never would have guessed that this man was such a force to be reckoned with; he wasn't just a toad but a golden dragon in disguise!
In Penelope's eyes, the direct heirs of the four major families were already impressive enough to be her ideal partner; now she saw that even those high-ranking members had to treat Lachlan with respect and deference.
Compared to him, Maxwell, one of those heirs, was nothing more than an insignificant person who could only apologize sheepishly.
Penelope felt regretful but also indignant: why did someone so powerful need to pretend like an ordinary person? Was it fun or interesting for him? Did he enjoy playing dumb while secretly being strong?
On another side of things, Romeo and Harlow watched this scene from afar with expressions full of wonderment.
Both father and daughter thought about what they had seen before their eyes met in mutual understanding: why were both the Austin family and the Chambers family treating Lachlan like this?
Could it be...?
Romeo turned towards someone nearby who seemed important enough to ask, "Sir, are both the Austin family and the Chambers family here for this medical exchange event? Why haven't we seen anyone from the Britt family?"
The man's face changed upon hearing Romeo's question before sighing deeply, "You must not be from around here if you don't know that the Britt family is finished."
Upon hearing these words, Romeo and Harlow were shocked beyond belief; unable to believe what they had heard.
"What do you mean by 'finished'?"
