Chapter 517 Brent Gets Angry
Brent was ignored, and his face darkened.
Brent was the second son of the Lewis family, a prodigy since childhood, receiving significant support from the Lewis family, with a limitless future. Wherever he went, he was always flattered, and no one ever dared to ignore him.
Even at tonight's auction, with so many big shots present, he was undoubtedly the most distinguished figure.
In Brent's eyes, James had no status, no position, no career. The only thing he had was his martial arts skills.
Brent was also a martial artist! More importantly, he could command at least five martial artists. Even martial artists had to work for him.
He was furious, a fire of anger building in his heart, and his gaze turned cold.
Many onlookers around were equally astonished, thinking James must be deaf to continue indulging himself so carelessly.
They didn't believe James really dared to ignore Brent. Only a madman would dare to offend Brent.
But some individuals recognized James and started to babble.
"Hey, isn't this the guy who fought with Tobias earlier? He's not deaf, so why does he dare to ignore Mr. Lewis?"
"This guy isn't deaf; he must be crazy!"
"Crazy? I think he's just too arrogant. A noble from a small place, used to being arrogant in a small place, thinks he can continue to be arrogant in Starlight Province!"
"This guy is done for. Everyone knows Mr. Lewis has a bad temper and hates being ignored. Now this guy has offended Mr. Lewis."
"The one next to him is Michael. Could it be that Michael instructed him? Otherwise, look at his clothes and demeanor; he's just an ordinary person. He's not deaf or crazy, so how dare he go against Mr. Lewis?"
"That could be possible. Michael has been very high-spirited recently after the mysterious downfall of the Perry family, elevating the Brown Group to a new level, with a market value exceeding sixty billion dollars."
"But no matter how rich Michael is, can he compare to Mr. Lewis and the Lewis family? And as far as I know, there's no conflict between Michael and the Lewis family. It's strange."
Many onlookers, after coming to their senses, attributed James's daring to ignore Brent to Michael. After all, James looked like an ordinary person. Some would even believe he was a delivery man.
Michael was quite anxious, and his assistant Aubrey, who came with him, was already sweating. He signaled to Michael, hinting that Michael should stay away from James to avoid being implicated.
But Michael remained unmoved. He had already made up his mind not to abandon James.
Michael also fathomed that James was not a frivolous young man. Since knowing James, every action James took had a reason and direction.
Michael didn't believe James was someone who would seek trouble for himself.
Tobias saw that James still dared to ignore Brent, which was simply courting death. He was extremely excited and seized the opportunity to curse at James. "James, are you deaf? Didn't you hear Mr. Lewis talking to you?"
Brent's face was cold as he stared at James. Anyone could tell he was angry.
As a result, many onlookers present fell silent, not daring to make a sound, quietly watching, afraid of offending Brent.
James still didn't look up, continuing to eat as he pleased. His behavior made everyone sweat for him. Was he too brave, or did he not know who the man standing in front of him was?
To onlookers, James had an appetizing manner of eating; it wasn't exactly refined, nor was it ravenous, but it conveyed such an enticing enjoyment that it made them feel a bit inclined to eat as well.
Tobias, seeing that James still ignored him, was both excited and angry. How dare this bastard ignore him?
At this moment, Rhys stepped forward and said to James, "James, we meet again. Do you remember me?"
James still remained silent. He finished a whole chicken and then took a large gulp of red wine, as if it wasn't worth thousands of dollars but just water.
His behavior made Rhys furious again!
Brent's face grew darker, and then he laughed loudly, "Good! Very good!"
Brent's voice was loud, using his inner strength, echoing throughout the venue, deafening. Especially for Rhys, Aimee, and Tobias standing next to him, it felt like a bomb exploded next to their ears, causing some pain in their eardrums.
Others were also shocked by Brent's presence.
"James, it's been a long time since I've seen someone dare to be arrogant in front of me. You're one of them. Very good, very good!" Brent's tone was hearty, but his face was expressionless, giving a chilling feeling, making people fear him.
James still was without any response, as if the food in front of him was everything, immersed in his own world.
This made Brent's eyebrows twitch, genuinely angry.
Even Michael couldn't understand James's actions, frowning.
"Not talking, huh? I have ways to make you talk!" Brent no longer concealed his murderous intent towards James. James's disrespect had completely triggered his killing intent. This was Starlight Province, his territory. Even if he killed James, no one would dare to resist.
Of course, Brent had no intention to kill James at the auction.
But Brent would have James thrown out!
Afterward, he had numerous ways to torment James.
"Someone, throw James out. If he resists, break his arms and legs!" Brent ordered.
"Yes, Mr. Lewis!" Immediately, a dozen security guards approached James. They were not just security guards but professionally trained thugs. Although not at the level of martial artists, their skills were comparable to special forces. A dozen of them together would be difficult for even a martial artist to handle.
