Chapter 394: Chapter 394 GoodbyeNICALL

“How could this be possible!”

Bran Cook lay on the ground covering his face, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He and so many business owners had failed to come to an agreement, yet Quella Radcliffe, a person on the brink of bankruptcy, had actually succeeded?

If it weren’t for the fact that he knew the Willson Group’s representative in Gonzalez City, Bran Cook would really suspect that this whole thing was a scam.

Looking at the person in black standing in front of him, he felt a chill down his spine.

The Willson Group really was domineering, resorting to violence at the slightest disagreement!

But even after being beaten up like this, he couldn’t utter a word of protest.

Who could blame them, with their wealth and power?

Moreover, now that the Willson Group had agreed to join the business alliance, if he continued to antagonize the people from the Willson Group, he was afraid he would incur the anger of the Gonzalez City business owners present.

“We welcome the Willson Group to join us. Today, in front of everyone here, I promise you that within three years…”

“Young Master Cook, what business is it of yours? You should be fulfilling the bet now, apologize! Kneel and apologize!”

Julius Reed interrupted Bran Cook’s speech from below the stage, folding his arms and looking at him coldly.

Hisss!

The people present inhaled a breath of cold air.

Julius Reed was wearing glasses today, making it hard for anyone to recognize him.

More importantly, no one was going to pay attention to the Radcliffe family’s good-for-nothing, live-in son-in-law.

Just today, he was being so assertive that anyone who could connect him with the wimp that was rumored to only do the cooking and laundry would be called an idiot. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

“Who is this guy? Daring to talk to Bran Cook like this? Is he tired of living or what?”

“I know this person, he was the one who destroyed Bran Cook’s stage last night, seems to be Quella Radcliffe’s new boyfriend.”

“Could he be some young master from the capital, or perhaps someone with significant status from somewhere else?”

Business owners speculated wildly, while many of the second-generation rich who had attended the gathering the previous night recognized Julius Reed and began telling their parents about the events that had unfolded.

“This guy is so tough? He didn’t get beaten to death yesterday?”

Upon hearing about last night’s events, many business owners started looking at Julius Reed differently.

Ever since Jaxen Brandon died, the title of Gonzalez City’s number one young master had actually fallen onto Bran Cook’s head.

This favored son who had returned from overseas first started a business in the capital, made a fortune, and made quite a few friends.

Returning with the influence of the capital behind him, and with ambitious plans, he was intent on making a splash in Gonzalez City.

But this young man with no family background to speak of, had humiliated Bran Cook in such a manner?

What emboldened him?

“I heard Itai Huntington has taken a liking to him, he might be Itai Huntington’s…”

“You can’t just say things like that! If that ‘Black Widow’ hears it, you’re in for it!”

Many people would involuntarily shudder at the mention of Itai Huntington.

It seemed this young guy’s arrogance was all because of Itai Huntington’s backing.

But Quella Radcliffe…

Their gaze towards Julius Reed had already begun to change.

However, Bran Cook below the stage was already clenching his fists tight.

He couldn’t kneel!

If he knelt voluntarily, his life in Gonzalez City would be completely ruined.

How would he command authority in the presence of these business owners in the future?

“I heard this bet too,”

The Willson Group’s representational in Gonzalez City, Haiden Leopold, watched Bran Cook with a smile, “If Young Master Cook goes back on his word, and if this gets back to the higher-ups in the Willson Group, we can’t be sure this contract will still be valid.”

He paused, then turned to the business owners of Gonzalez City, “In business, it’s character that counts! If someone doesn’t have integrity, who would dare do business with him?”

After he spoke, those present began whispering and discussing among themselves.

“What a pity it would be if the project we finally got our hands on got ruined because of this!”

“Right! Young Master Cook doesn’t seem like someone who can’t accept a loss!”

“Stop talking, having the Willson Group give us this opportunity is a huge stroke of luck! But this opportunity… oh!”

In the face of profit, no one cared about Bran Cook’s dignity.

People are selfish by nature.

“Fine! I, Bran Cook, have the courage to accept responsibility for my actions!”

Thud!

Under everyone’s gaze, Bran Cook kneeled straight in front of Quella Radcliffe.

If he hadn’t knelt then, it’s likely that those present would have forced him to!

It was the trend of things, he had lost.

Utterly defeated!

“I apologize to you!”

He took a deep breath, his fists clenched tightly, teeth grinding noisily.

“Clang!”

Just then, the previously solemn atmosphere was shattered by a clear ringing sound.

Julius Reed, from who knows where, had managed to toss a coin to land precisely in front of Bran Cook.

“Not much money, just a little something.”

He chuckled, leaving Bran Cook’s face seething with anger!

“See ya!”

Julius Reed, holding Quella Radcliffe’s hand, strutted out of the private club.

With this deal sealed, the Radcliffe Group’s entry into the alliance had been a matter of course.

No matter how much Bran Cook hated it, he couldn’t change this fact.

When the time came to elect the chairman, Julius Reed only had to meddle a bit to push Quella into the position.

Once Quella became the spokesperson for the alliance, those in Gonzalez City who had kicked her when she was down naturally had to show their loyalty.

The crisis facing the Radcliffe Group would naturally resolve itself.

“Julius, do you know? During the negotiation, I didn’t say anything and they agreed, just like a dream.”

Quella Radcliffe was walking down the street, still not recovered from the shock of it all.

It was just too unbelievable.

“I told you, a friend of a friend of my friend has a lot of say in that company. You married into wealth, you’ve hit the jackpot,” Julius Reed joked.

The friend of a friend of his friend was actually himself…

This was something Julius Reed would never admit to his death.

“Hey, gorgeous. Can I discuss something with you?”

Just then, a very flamboyantly dressed girl with a dog approached Quella Radcliffe.

“What is it?”

Quella Radcliffe asked, a bit puzzled.

She didn’t seem to recognize this woman at all!

“The dog’s for you, your boyfriend’s for me!”

The girl shoved the dog leash into Quella Radcliffe’s hand and grabbed Julius Reed’s hand, trying to run off.

At the same time, the keenly perceptive Julius Reed noticed a man not far away filming with his phone.

“Screw you!”

Julius Reed stood his ground, executing a crisp judo throw, slamming the girl hard onto the ground!

Thud!

“Ouch! It hurts so bad! Ahhh! My leg… my butt…”

The girl lay on the ground, wailing in pain.

The asphalt road surface, combined with Julius Reed’s immense strength, almost made the woman spill her guts then and there.

The Teddy dog that Quella Radcliffe was holding got scared and began barking.

Bang!

Julius Reed kicked, sending the Teddy flying into the bushes.

“Go home!”

He dusted off his hands, a relaxed expression on his face as he pulled Quella Radcliffe toward his house.

“Stop right there!”

Just at that moment, the man who was filming walked over, blocking their way: “Why did you hurt my girlfriend?”
