When Miguel Abbott saw Julius Reed, a smile instantly appeared on his face.
But this smile was quickly concealed, replaced by an air of indifference.
Since the other party had shown up at the Pearl on the Water, it meant that his supreme card had taken effect, and moreover, the other party had found it quite useful.
Though extorted for tens of billions, to Miguel Abbott, that was chump change.
Money lost can be earned back, but such opportunities do not come often.
Being able to press several tycoons to the ground with oneβs power, how could he be an ordinary person?
Observing the scene before him, his mind instantly understood what was going on.
This gentleman must have been restless after getting off the plane and stepped on Atlas Leopold right away.
And it occurred in his own hotel.
Indeed, he was facing a dilemma, but it was also an opportunity.
His prior intent to play both sides now seemed unfeasible.
He was left with only two paths.
Either stand with Atlas Leopold, thereby wasting all his previous efforts, with the tens of billions thrown away for nothing,
Or if he sided with Julius Reed, it pretty much meant standing against all the tycoons, clearly declaring war with the other families!
βNot bad, thinking of coming over to Boss Abbott for a complimentary dinner, but it seems, this meal is not easy to enjoy!β
Julius Reed sat with one leg crossed over the other, his face revealing an enigmatic smile.
To Miguel Abbott, that smile was pregnant with meaning.
βHow can you speak to the Chairman like that?β
Bald Abbott, who had just sent Haddon Michael back, pointed at Julius Reed, his tone laced with indifference.
Miguel Abbott, as the chairman of Moonlight Group and one of the top ten wealthiest individuals,
Demanded respect from everyone, who had to greet him deferentially as Boss Abbott.
But now this youngster, having struck Atlas Leopold, was also talking to his boss with such a tone.
In Allenβs mind, he had already resolved to deal with this young man.
Slap!
What he didnβt expect was that the previously unflappable Miguel Abbott would slap him across the face, bellowing furiously, βGet out of here!β
βYesβ¦ Boss!β
Allen, clutching his face, hastily bent over and scurried away.
Not just him, the other bodyguards were also filled with shock.
Having followed Miguel Abbott for so long, they had never seen the boss lose his temper before.
And Allen, as the head of the bodyguards, was treated like a brother by Miguel Abbott on a usual basis.
Now, everyone had one question in mind: who exactly was this young man?
βUncle Miguel, you know him?β
Atlas Leopold also sensed that something was off.
Miguel Abbott was a man who valued his pride, and even in talks with him, one had to be polite, addressing him as Uncle Miguel.
βI know him!β
Miguel Abbott didnβt hesitate, striding over to Julius Reed, and said apologetically, βBrother Reed, Iβve failed to take good care of you today. How about this, Iβll host a banquet at the top floor to offer my apologies, how does that sound?β
As soon as he spoke, Elize Yarrowβs mouth hung open in shock.
She was very clear on who Miguel Abbott was, and she had thought she was in trouble, but now Boss Abbott was voluntarily inviting them to dinner?
But what she hadnβt expected even more was that Julius Reed, without a hint of politeness, simply nodded and stood up!
βDress sexily tonight, accompany me well!β
As he passed by Elize Yarrow, Julius Reed spoke audibly for everyone to hear.
And he casually threw a card to one of Miguel Abbottβs bodyguards, βGo, buy two sets of uniforms and come back.β
βThereβs no need for you to spend money on such matters!β
Miguel Abbott immediately returned the card and ordered, βHandle this right away!β
βYes, sir!β
Upon the bossβs command, the bodyguard immediately turned and trotted away from the Pearl of the Waters.
Only then did Miguel Abbott take a careful look at Elize Yarrow.
He always felt she looked familiar, and now his gaze toward Julius Reed was also somewhat strange.
It seems that men all have a taste for it!
But what he didnβt know was that Julius Reed had no interest in Elize Yarrow at all; he merely wanted to humiliate Atlas Leopold.
By tomorrow, it would become common knowledge
that Atlas Leopoldβs fiancΓ©e spent the night with another man, engaging in all sorts of antics.
For a man as prideful as the Four Great Gentlemen, it would be worse than death.
βUncle Miguel! β
Sure enough, upon hearing Julius Reedβs words, Atlas Leopoldβs face became as dark as water.
βThis man has hit me and my brothers! Even my employees and bodyguards were injured by him!β
Standing up, Atlas Leopold looked coldly at Miguel Abbott, βNow, he wants to take my fiancΓ©e upstairs, and youβre just going to watch? The Leopold Family will never allow such a thing to happen, no matter what!β
For the wealthy families, reputation is everything!
Moreover, Atlas Leopoldβs words were quite euphemistic, not seeming like a threat to Miguel Abbott, yet conveying the underlying message.
Todayβs matter was no longer a small dispute, but involved the interests between several major families!
βIβm sorry, Nephew Atlas.β
With a faint smile, Miguel Abbott took Julius Reed by the arm and walked toward the upstairs.
A simple apology made his stance clear.
βDamn it!β
Atlas Leopold knelt on the ground, his nails digging deeply into his flesh.
He had never been humiliated like this in his life before. And it was done right in front of so many people, stepping on him ruthlessly!
βYoung master, what should we do?β The employees asked.
βAll useless! Get out of my sight!β
Atlas Leopold roared and pulled out his cellphone from his jacket.
After hesitating for a moment, he violently threw the phone away, deciding not to call his father.
βLetβs go!β
The employees quickly helped the young master up and left the Pearl of the Waters posthaste.
Once in the car, Atlas Leopold took another cellphone from under the passenger seat.
This cellphone had only one contact, whom he really didnβt want to call unless absolutely necessary.
βAt the Pearl of the Waters, I donβt want him to live until tomorrow.β After uttering this sentence, he hung up the phone.
βJulius Reed, you had a way to heaven but you didnβt take it, and now youβre barging into hell with no gate!β
Meanwhile, at the top-floor restaurant of the Pearl of the Waters, Julius Reed was leisurely enjoying the night view of Five-river Province.
The scenery from the thirty-third floor wasnβt bad at all when looking down from such a height.
βThe apology you gave just now has already put you squarely against the Leopold Family!β
Julius Reed, with his back toward Miguel Abbott, spoke nonchalantly, βAs a result, itβs very likely all my enemies will choose to go against you. Boss Abbott, that doesnβt seem like a wise decision.β
With Atlas Leopold leaving like that, he definitely wouldnβt just let it go!
And it wasnβt just Atlas Leopold losing face but the entire Leopold Family being shamed!
Given Miguel Abbottβs attitude, the two families were now complete enemies!
βWould Mr. Reed just stand by if I were in trouble? Iβm a businessman who loves to take risks! If I fail, Iβll just start over. But what if I succeed?β
With a faint smile, Miguel Abbott sat at the table, βIt might save me twenty years of struggle!β
