Even if they were unaware of Samuel and others' identities, how could they suggest such a thing so blatantly? After all, the front-row seats were necessary for a Christie's auction house?
Fridmansky saw that his opponent was young and wanted to show off his prestige to his girls; it was just an opportunity for him. One couldn't blame a man for trying!
However, it was a pity that he picked the absolute worse opponent for this.
"I don't think so. Why don't you think of it before barging in here." Antonio replied with hostility.
Fridmansky might be a big shot in his country, but this is America, and Antonio was not going to give him any ground here. Coupled with the fact Antonio also knew these types of people were definitely on the radar of law enforcement agencies. It would have consequences if he dared to make a scene here.
Even if one excluded Samuel and Darren's background, Istanbul and Antonio had sufficient support to not fall in the face of this giant.
The bodyguard wanted to say something, but Antonio cut him off again.
"Get off." Antonio was unnecessarily violent and ruthless, the other party might not know about him, but Antonio was well aware of their family feud.
Seeing Antonio didn't give Fridmansky any face made the financial oligarch's face gloomy. Being restrained made him uncomfortable, so he avoided any conflict.
With a cold snort, he took the two beautiful blonde women to sit in the first row and the people accompanying him seated at his back. There was still time before the start of the auction, so he waved his hand, instructing people behind him.
They immediately took out a cigar, and the blonde beauty beside him simultaneously took out the unique lighter she carried in her small bag and helped him light the cigar.
After a few puffs, he pushed out a cloud of smoke, and it went straight toward Samuel and the others. Samuel immediately frowned, but he did not need to speak; Antonio and Istanbul were already on it.
"Hey, sir, if you want to enjoy your cigar, there is a cigar room specially prepared by Christie's at the door, where you can go and enjoy it. As for now, you should squeeze the cigar in your hand; that's very ungentlemanly of you." Istanbul did not show Fridmansky any face at all and pointed out his misconduct bluntly.
It made Fridmansky a little uncomfortable; where did this group of brats come from? They were challenging him again and again!
Not even other oligarchs or influential people dared to do the same; he had enough of them!
"Good; which family do you guys belong to? I don't think your fathers taught you to be this rude when going out. Such arrogance!" He sneered, looking at young brats.
"Istantin Aziz!"
" Antonio Kuznetsov!" The two reported their names separately; needless to say, although they were well known like Rothschild, they were very famous in the city. Fridmansky was especially curious when he heard Antonio's name.
"So you are his child? I see you are doing great, but will your old man approve of this?" He replied smugly.
"My father is not a coward!"
"Very well." Fridmansky was not here to be bullied. He might not be able to hurt them directly, but when it came to financial power, he vowed to show these punks who their daddy was!
Not to mention if he ever caught them abroad, he was sure to give them a world of hurt! He handed the cigar to the girl next to him and motioned her to extinguish the cigar.
ƥandasnovel·ƈom It was not a battle of words but a struggle for wealth!

...
Samuel, Istanbul, and Antonio didn't participate in the first half of the auction. These antique cars were not very rare, so it was a pointless endeavor. But Mikhail, on the other hand, used more than 3 million USD to buy a few of these cars.
Whenever he successfully bid on the item, he would turn toward them to give them a triumphant look. He was showing off, but Samuel could care less about it.
"A few little brats! What's the point of having a great family background if you can't even buy anything? Where is the pride that you showed before!" He scoffed and thought, mocking them. Their earlier demeanor was already a joke to him!
He ruled it out as their embarrassment; it was the only explanation he could come up with. They might brag, but everyone knew brats like that could only fork up pennies compared to him!
Looking at his repeated smug expression, both Istanbul and Antonio sneered; this hillbilly bought a few junk antiquities at sky-high prices, and the joke was that he was trying to show them off! Laughable!
On the other hand, Samuel directly ignored him. Why should a giant care about a cockroach? If he wanted, he could crush him, and nobody would give two fucks about it!
The first half of the auction ended without trouble; during the intermission, Mikhail, who thought he had a good harvest, took out a cigar triumphantly and went to the cigar room to enjoy his victory. The blondies followed him, swaying their hips toward Samuel and others, trying to stir conflict, but the boys were better than that!
"Fuck, I almost couldn't help myself. Seeing that guy's face, I couldn't wait to smoke him!" The first person to complain was Antonio, who had the hottest temper.
"Forget it; the first half was just an appetizer. You didn't realize that the face of the auctioneer just now was almost full of laughter, and the few cars that were not very expensive were taken away by that fool!" Istanbul calmed him down.
He was chuckling as he didn't know how to describe this oligarch's vision. Istanbul knew all the estimates of the items; many of the things he bought were sold for more than 100% over the premium price!
It was no wonder the auctioneer was smiling like a fool. It was always a big payday when the auction house encountered such a blind rich idiot!
"What about you, Sami? How much you got?" Darren asked directly, seeing the opponent was competent. The other two also looked at him, curious about his answer.
"Hehe, more than that idiot, for sure. Your brother will show you a great show of how to humiliate an Oligarch!" Samuel declared.
Mikhail didn't even know his showing off would soon result in a massive public stunt! He would quickly become a stepping stone for Samuel as next day newspaper headlines!
