Chapter 649: Chapter 649 Elwood Thorneycroft Sends a Gift_1
“Whether it’s bragging or not, it doesn’t matter! You guys help solve the problem first!”
Julius Reed couldn’t be bothered to explain.
Even if he did, nobody would believe him.
They say three cobblers make a Zhuge Liang.
With these people helping to brainstorm, it’s not impossible to figure it out.
What if one of their ideas actually works?
...
“You go first!”
“Right! Show us the photo!”
“Once we’re sure it’s real, then we’ll give you ideas!”
Those security guys were really cunning.
They simply didn’t believe that Julius Reed could have a wife and a mistress on the side.
That would cost a fortune!
With just a security guard’s salary, it’s impossible to support two won.
And young won at that.
Literal money-burning machines!
“Ah! Even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe .”
Julius Reed waved his hands helplessly and said, “The situation is, both of them work at the sa company, my wife is the general manager, and the lover… Spit! The woman who is chasing , is the chairman.”
“Damn! Living off won, huh!”
“Aweso!”
“Kid, I didn’t see it coming! You really have sothing.”
Once he said this, everyone’s look towards Julius Reed changed.
Envious.
Jealous.
Sour.
If soone else had said this, they might not have believed it.
But Julius Reed was too handso.
The n at the table had to admit it, his face was perfect for living off won!
“Whether I’m living off won doesn’t matter, the key is how to handle this complicated relationship!”
Julius Reed was exasperated, why couldn’t these people see the main point?
The point was the two won were fighting with jealousy, and he was caught in the middle.
What did it have to do with the statuses of the two won?
“Don’t you guys feel confused about this problem?”
Julius Reed looked at them helplessly.
“Not at all…”
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
These days, finding a wife was considered good enough.
And to dare dream of having a mistress?
Real rich guys don’t know the plight of the hungry!
“Ladies and gentlen! Welco to the first annual conference of the Gonzalez City Business Alliance!”
On the stage.
The female host in a red blazer started the event with great excitent.
Her voice instantly quieted the entire banquet hall.
Most seats in the banquet hall were already filled.
Only a few spots were left vacant.
These people were either busy or due to traffic jams.
Under normal circumstances, nobody would miss this feast.
“Gonzalez City’s Five-lakes Clubhouse, Elwood Thorneycroft, Miss Thorneycroft arrives!”
Just then, a cry ca from outside the door.
As the banquet hall doors slowly opened, Elwood Thorneycroft walked in with four subordinates, strolling in.
Today Elwood Thorneycroft wore a black leather outfit with twin ponytails.
Each person behind her held a wooden tray.
Covered by red cloth on the trays.
From the looks of it, they were gifts.
The recent spat between Fabian Percival and Itai Huntington was making waves, and everyone was very curious.
This was the weasel paying a New Year’s visit to the chicken – no good intentions!
“I heard that Miss Huntington was hosting the first annual eting of the business alliance, so on behalf of my father Fabian Percival, Mr. Thorneycroft, I am here to present four gifts to Miss Huntington,” Elwood Thorneycroft said as she walked to the center of the venue, with one hand behind her back.
She pointed towards the four wooden trays with her other hand.
“Jade Ruyi!”
“Gold Kylin!”
“An authentic Alistair Abernathy’s painting.”
“Boss’s cane!”
As she nad each item, the bodyguards behind her lifted the red cloths.
When the last item was revealed, the banquet hall fell silent.
Everyone present understood what the Boss’s cane signified.
When Fabian Percival suffered defeat and fled, the Boss’s cane disappeared without a trace.
Each successor of Gonzalez City’s triad leaders, including Aron Jackson, had wanted to dig three feet into the ground to find this treasure.
However, the Boss’s cane seed to have vanished into thin air, not a single trace to be found.
It wasn’t until Fabian Percival returned to Gonzalez City.
That the Boss’s cane finally saw the light of day again!
Now, by offering the Boss’s cane to Itai Huntington, Fabian Percival clearly did not have good intentions.
“Thank you, Mr. Thorneycroft.”
With a wave of his hand, Itai Huntington had his bodyguards imdiately go and collect all four gifts.
“My father also asked to convey a ssage.”
Elwood Thorneycroft, hands clasped behind her back, stared intently at the stage, “Today, these items are rely on loan to Miss Huntington. In the future, they will all be taken back!”
“Hiss!”
After a brief silence, the venue started to buzz with discussion.
“Fabian Percival is sending a declaration of war!”
“Exactly! What is the Boss’s cane? It’s a gang’s token! If Fabian Percival can give away the Boss’s cane, it ans he intends to personally take it back!”
“This is an outright provocation! Does Itai Huntington really dare to accept it?”
Everyone present knew well in their hearts that only one could exist between Fabian Percival and Itai Huntington.
The other was destined to be driven away.
They had to make a choice.
In fact.
Fabian Percival’s deploynt of Elwood Thorneycroft at this critical juncture also served to intimidate the entrepreneurs present.
“Since you are here, Miss Thorneycroft, why not sit down and join us for a al?”
With a gesture from Itai Huntington, the bodyguards imdiately cleared away the shattered naplate belonging to Julius Reed.
Freed up a vacant spot.
“Since Miss Huntington invites , I shall not stand on ceremony!”
Elwood Thorneycroft showed no intention of leaving and directly took the seat originally belonging to Julius Reed, sitting down calmly.
“Indeed, a tiger father has no canine daughter. Look at Elwood Thorneycroft—she’s got so nerve!”
“It seems that it’s only a matter of ti before Fabian Percival defeats Aron Jackson!”
“We must make a decision soon!”
Seeing Elwood Thorneycroft’s composure, many people began to feel anxious.
The sooner one pledged loyalty, the greater the benefits received.
If one was too late, even their current holdings may not be secure.
“Hello, may I ask where Julius Reed is sitting?”
Just as Julius Reed was getting ready to eat.
A young man in a suit slowly approached them.
He chose this table to inquire because these people were security and gatekeepers.
Interacting with company employees every day.
They knew all the employees best.
“Julius Reed? I think I’ve heard the na. What do you need him for?”
As it happened.
The person Tariq Lopez asked was Julius Reed himself.
“Oh! He and I are friends. I just happened to co from the capital and thought I’d give him a surprise. Do you know him?”
Tariq Lopez pulled out a thousand yuan from his pocket, a hint of a smile in his eyes.
The simplest and most effective thod to deal with these people at the bottom was money.
“Julius Reed had sothing co up today and couldn’t make it, but his wife is here. Look…”
Julius Reed kept his eyes fixed on the other person while talking.
“Oh? That’s unfortunate… but I also know his wife; you can tell where Julius Reed’s wife is sitting.”
A sharp light flashed in Tariq Lopez’s eyes.
Humiliating Julius Reed’s wife would still bring sha to Julius Reed!
This was the annual eting!
In front of a large audience!
“Do you see that table at the very front?”
Julius Reed pointed toward the spot where Itai Huntington was sitting, “The one dressed in black, that’s Julius Reed’s wife!”
After speaking, he sighed, “It’s really enviable, you know? How could soone as unremarkable as Julius Reed have such a beautiful wife!”
“Thank you, this money is yours.”
Tariq Lopez narrowed his eyes, quickly locking onto the target.
After stuffing the thousand yuan into Julius Reed’s hand, he turned and walked toward that table.
Indeed.
Just as Jennifer Lopez had told him.
Julius Reed’s wife was part of the company’s upper managent.
Even her seat was at the most prestigious position in the front row.
With that in mind.
He smirked coldly, picked up a glass of red wine from a passing table, and quickly walked towards the woman in black.
