The old man sounded loud and clear which echoed in the room.
The once intense room instantly quieted down.
All the people present examined the grey-haired man woodenly and couldn’t utter a word.
“Well, did you... did you say that you come from the Cohen family?”
After pausing for a while, Ernie got serious and looked respectful.
Ayan also told all his bodyguards to back down.
Though he didn’t say anything, the astonishment in his face showed his surprise and anxiety.
“Exactly.”
The bodyguard next to the old man answered the question.
He was six feet tall and his temple was bulging which looked imposing and was obviously skilled.
Instantly, no one present questioned the old man’s identity.
Lydia was utterly taken aback when she saw the old man who met her eyes and bowed down a bit.
Leo squinted his eyes and noticed that this butler of the Cohen family knew Lydia.
As for Kian, Jaiden, Aaron and Lydia, they were already stupefied.
No one expected that the Cohen family, the royal family of Valenham would show up.
They only heard this family from the legend.
But the most shocking of all was the old man’s words after.
“Welcome home, Mr. Cohen!”
Who was this young master?
All the people present turned to Leo automatically and were completely stunned.
Was it really him?
Well, it was true that Leo had an emblem which symbolized the Cohen family on him, but they all thought that it was fake.
But now, the real the Cohen family was here, how they can deny it anymore?
At this moment, all the people present were calculating inside.
Ernie looked at Leo more respectfully, but Ayan, Kian, Jaiden, and Aaron were definitely terrified.
But Leo just glanced at the old man coldly and didn’t say anything.
But after letting out that sentence, the old man remained quiet and smiled at everyone present.
The bodyguard next to him then said coldly, “Everyone out now. We got to report to the young master something.”
Ernie then drove away all the bodyguards.
Ayan dared not to stay, but was afraid to leave, so he just waited in the lobby of the hotel.
After the Cohen family arrived, the Watts and the Palmers stopped fighting, for though the Cohen family only brought one man over, he surly was intimidating.
Leo meant to leave with Lydia, but Robbie stopped him, “Please stay, master!”
Leo just glanced at him and said, “You are mistaken. I am not your master.”
“No one in the Hendersons would dare to say anything to you with this emblem. But without this emblem, you two would be broken up!”
Lydia’s face instantly changed and held Leo’s arms subconsciously and got silent.
Though his words were harsh, he was right.
If Leo was equipped with the Cohen family’s background, they would be equals in terms of family influence, so no one would bad-mouth them anymore.
But Leo suddenly laughed at Robbie with mockery in his eyes,
To Robbie, the Cohen family was the royal here and overpowered others, but he didn’t know that there were many people who can eliminate them instantly.
Robbie was agitated, “What are you laughing about?” He questioned Leo.
“I’m laughing at your ignorance and stupidity.” Leo said bluntly.
He then added, “Don’t be mad. Let me tell you a story first. You will know what I am talking about.”
“There was once a frog who made his home in a shallow well. One day he met a sea gull from the East Sea. He then said to him, “This is where I live. I got blue sky and fresh water here. you would fall in love with this place.” But sea gull just shook its head and answered, “I can’t tell you how vast the East Sea is, for it is beyond measure. However, flood doesn’t increase its depth the least bit, and drought can’t make it lose an inch. Its depth does not change with time, nor does it change with the amount of rainfall. This is its greatest pleasure!””
Hearing Leo’s story, Lydia stared at Leo warmly, but Robbie’s face darkened.
“How dare you to say that we are frog in the shallow well?” Robbie sounded angry.
“Are you not?”
Leo got fierce and domineering.
“the Cohen family may be your god to you, but to me, it’s just a handful of dust.”
Then he held Lydia’s hand and left the room.
