“No! I must buy back the Clifford family’s title deed!”
Hearing Muriel’s words, Gavin opened his mouth. He wanted to say that he could actually take it back alone.
However, looking at the determination in Muriel’s eyes, Gavin felt a sense of warmth in his heart and did not say anything to stop her.
Gavin had absolute strength. Even if Muriel and Sally encountered any danger, Gavin could easily settle it.
Meanwhile, Gavin and Muriel had already returned to the presidential suite.
On the other side, the Mullen family’s Adair had already left the clubhouse. He headed to the auction venue tonight.
After all, tonight’s auction was the most important thing today.
Since the beginning, this auction only had one goal.
That was to allow Riverrun’s wealthy families, powerhouses, and forces to gather in Stanlow and the Mullen family’s residence.
The Mullen family could improve their family’s social status in Riverrun. In addition, they could make a lot of money.
However, later on, Brody’s father, part of the Hill family in Greenwald, came to Stanlow and found Adair.
He told Adair that a person who resembled Gavin had returned from Brookspring.
There was another purpose for this auction.
That was to lure out the Clifford family’s remaining survivor, Gavin, and then kill him on the spot!
That would let the Clifford family of Brookspring disappear from this world. forever!
The auction was brought forward because the people he sent to Brookspring discovered that Brookspring’s Dawson family and Holman family, as well as the weakest Harper family, had been destroyed by Gavin!
If it was not Gavin, it was an expert who pretended to be Gavin and deliberately. came out to cause trouble.
The sudden change in the timing of the auction was also to prevent Gavin from having any chance to prepare.
If Gavin had come, they would have already set up a trap and waited for Gavin to
enter.
If Gavin did not come, the Clifford family’s title deed would be sold. It would be

difficult for Gavin to find it again. That could also piss off Gavin.
It was the best of both worlds.
As the person in charge of the Mullen family auction, Adair naturally had to oversee the venue and strategize.
Adair had a satisfied look on his face as he looked at his subordinates, who were arranging the venue in an orderly manner. He lazily sat on the soft sofa to rest. At that moment, the lackey, who had followed behind Adair at the clubhouse to arrange for the kidnapping of Muriel and her daughter, ran to Adair’s side in a hurry.
When Adair saw this lackey, a faint smile appeared on his face. There was even a hint of anticipation in his smile as he asked, “Is it done?”
When the lackey heard Adair’s words, an ugly expression appeared on his face. Looking at the lackey’s expression, Adair’s expression slowly turned cold as he asked, “What happened?”
The lackey said with a pained expression, “Mr. Mullen, all the men we sent out are dead.”
“What?”
Adair exclaimed in surprise when he heard that.
The lackey knelt down with a plop and cried out, “Mr. Mullen! It’s all my fault. I didn’t do my job well. I didn’t investigate clearly. The bodyguard that Muriel and her daughter brought is really too powerful. Even our peak expert warrior was not his match!”
Hearing the lackey’s words, Adair’s face was filled with anger and disbelief. He raised his leg and kicked the lackey’s chest fiercely.
“Stop your nonsense! What’s going on? That stupid bodyguard is so young. How strong can he be?”
The lackey rolled on the ground in pain before getting up. He knelt on the ground again and hurriedly said, “Mr. Mullen is right. I’m sprouting nonsense!” Slap! As the lackey spoke, he slapped himself and
said, “Mr. Mullen, when I arrived at the scene, everyone was dead. All of them were dead. Muriel and her daughter only had that one young man by their side as their bodyguard. If it wasn’t that young man, who else could it be?”
Adair stood up and kicked the lackey again.
“Did you fucking see it with your own eyes? Can’t there be an expert hiding in the dark?”
The lackey fell to the ground in pain reacted and said, with snot and tears. “Mr. Mullen is right. I was too stupid to think of this.”
Adair looked at the tearful lackey and sat down again. He crossed his legs and said, “Alright, it’s not your fault. After all, you don’t know the warrior. Remember, I’m This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

telling you that even if the young bodyguard beside Muriel is a warrior, he’s at most at the beginner stage of the expert rank based on his age. Therefore, someone else killed the Mullen family’s people!”
On the other side, the lackey kept nodding.
“Mr. Mullen is right, Mr. Mullen is right.”
On the other side, the lackey said again, “Mr. Mullen, what should we do about. Muriel?”
Adair narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists slightly. It was obvious that he really wanted to have a taste of Muriel!
However, he still endured it and said, “It’s fine as long as they’re still in Stanlow! Let’s consider tonight’s auction first. The auction is the most important thing!” The lackey also put away his snot and tears and
asked again, “Mr. Mullen, but we’ve lost the warrior. What if Gavin comes tonight? What should we do?” “What do you mean?” Adair looked at his lackey and sneered.
“That peak expert warrior is just the weakest warrior in our operation. It doesn’t matter if he’s there or not! Besides, we’re not the only ones tonight.”
A cold smile appeared on Adair’s face as he said, “Do you remember the dozen or so people we saw a few days ago with thorn flowers embroidered on their clothes?”
The lackey nodded, and Adair continued speaking.
“Each of them is a warrior above the supreme rank!”
“Also!”
Adair lowered his voice and said to his lackey, “My father also contacted the people from Rosebud. They’re also here!”
Rosebud?
For some reason, when Adair’s lackey heard these three words, his face suddenly turned pale. His body trembled a few times before he said with lingering fear, “Is it that group of women with terrifying martial strength?”
Adair nodded slightly and said, “That’s right, it’s them.”
Then, Adair spoke again.
“The Rosebud’s head is really beautiful! It’s just a pity. As a woman, how can she be so powerful?”
Good lord, what was Adair thinking about? Why did he want to go to sleep with whichever woman he saw?
Adair said again, “Moreover, the lord of the Southeast Martial Order, Leonard, will also attend our auction. My father has drunk with Leonard twice! If these people are not enough, with my father’s relationship with Leonard, the Martial Order will definitely not sit back and do nothing!”
After Adair finished speaking, the smiles on his and his lackeys’ faces gradually became ferocious.
Adair slowly mocked in a hoarse voice, “No matter who it is, whether it’s Gavin or an expert pretending to be Gavin, he will definitely die!”
Adair laughed crazily.
While Adair was smiling happily, at the same time, Muriel and the others. returned to the lobby of the hotel where they were staying.
At this moment, it had already been sealed by a group of armored warriors.
In the middle of the hall, the Southeast Martial Order’s lord, Leonard, who had drunk with Adair’s father twice, was kneeling respectfully on the ground.
The person Leonard was kneeling to was exactly the person Adair had said would. definitely die tonight, Gavin!
At this moment, Leonard knelt on one knee respectfully and said solemnly in at low voice, “Benefactor, do you need the people from Southeast Martial Order to control tonight’s auction?”
