They saw that not far away from the street lined up a neat convoy that was slowly approaching.
Those were all Bentley, probably dozens of them. Among the Bentley there was a limited-edition Lincoln.
The Bentleys were shocking enough, but what was more unbelievable was that the license plate of the Lincoln was exclusive!
It was enough to show off the majestic presence of the owner of the cars!
Both pedestrians and passing cars had to hurry to get out of the way.
At this moment, many people had stopped to see the fun.
It was unprecedented.
“What is happening? Did someone important come to Vernon?”
“I bet so! Dozens of Bentleys with a Lincoln among them? I’ve never seen such a scene in my whole life in Vernon! Whoever owns these must be super rich.”
“I bet it’s the John family. I remember the license plate number. I’ve seen the car coming out of the John family. I heard that’s the car of Memphis John.”
“Let’s go check it out. I wonder who it is that the John family is welcoming.”
The streets had been crowded with people watching and many drivers had stopped the car, taking out their phones to record and post this. This was nearly a hundred Bentleys! Not many people in Vernon could afford that! Some even started livestreaming.
The entire city shook.
It was simply envy-inducing.
Soon, the cars came to a stop in front of the Sandrea Hotel.
George was dumbfounded.
“What the hell?” He could not help saying in shock. Even he was envious of the person who owned these cars.
He was indeed powerful, but this was beyond him.
He and his men all took a few steps back, while Kayden maintained his stance, calm and composed. The cars stopped right in front of Kayden, but he looked at them with disdain.
“Crap, what’s that idiot doing? Does he think the John family is here for him?” One of George’s minions couldn’t help but shout.
The people who were watching and shooting videos were also pointing fingers.
“Holy shit! Is that guy nuts? He’s in my camera!”
“The cars were parked in front of him, do you think those cars were here for him?”
“Bullshit, that guy clearly just checked out of the hotel. And it seems he’s in trouble. Do you see those guys behind him? I think it’s George Philips and his men!”
“Crap! You are right! That guy offended George Philips!”
At this time, from the Bentley cars came out several expressionless black-clothed men. The black-clothed men were tall and robust, and at a glance, everyone knew that these men were soldiers.
After they got out of the car, the soldiers stood in a line at a very fast speed and blocked the people at about a hundred meters away from the hotel so that they could only watch from afar.
When the line was organized and the passersby were kept out, an alluring-looking woman in a black dress came out from the passenger side of the Lincoln. The woman was the John family’s housekeeper, Lucy. She walked around to open the car door.
The next moment, everyone saw a cane, followed by a man’s foot. An old man came out. He was the head of the John family, Memphis John!
Upon seeing Memphis, people in the audience rushed to take pictures.
Despite his haggard appearance, people respected and looked up to him. Looking at Memphis, the crowd of onlookers still took him as a role model.
As Memphis got out of the car, his granddaughter Daphne also got out of the car, and she hastily assisted him.
At the entrance of the hotel, Donald, the owner of the hotel, hastened to organize the staff here to welcome Memphis when he learned that he had come.
“Donald, is Mr. John here for us?” A waiter asked Donald.
Donald could not hide the nervousness on his face. There were two possibilities, one was that they were in trouble, and the other was that their hotel was about to be showered by the glory of Memphis’ presence. He had never offended the Johns, but attempted to get investment from them through some connections.
By the looks of it, it should be the latter. There was no way the John family would make trouble for them for no reason.
Thinking of this, Donald pretended to be calm and said, “It should be the cooperation I tried to get with the John family some time ago. I guess they came over to sign the contract with us.”
“Signing a contract? You got Mr. John here to sign it with you himself?”
Donald contemptuously glanced at the waiter, then raised his hand to straighten his hair and suit and said, ”Of course. I told you that you will have a chance to do great things as long as you work hard. This is a proof of my words. The John family’s presence here will make more people know my hotel. Be as respectful as you can get later, you hear me?”
Memphis walked over, and Donald hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile on his face, “Mr. John, welcome. Your presence is a great pleasure and honor.”
Memphis frowned at him, then shouted, “Who the hell are you? Get lost!”
With those words, he pushed Donald away, then came to George with a serious face.
He looked George up and down and chortled, “George Philips, I heard you’ve been quite a figure!”
