Chapter 354: Chapter 354 Waiting for a Call_1

“Julius Reed?”

The moment he stepped out, both Simeon Kensington and Otis Radcliffe spoke up.

“You two know each other?”

Turning around, Sterling Fairbanks looked at Otis Radcliffe and pointing at Julius Reed, he demanded, “Who is this guy!”

His visit to Five-river Province was because the Hall Family was opening a second ‘Island of Love’ franchise in the province and wanted Sterling Fairbanks to choose a location for the store and enjoy some sightseeing on the side.

And Fairbanks directly sought out the local prominent Leopold Family, enjoying his time with Brayden Leopold, while Otis Radcliffe, through his own methods, successfully infiltrated this circle that originally didn’t include him.

And he even managed to become Sterling Fairbanks’s lackey.

“It’s more than just knowing him; it’s a memory etched into my bones!” Otis Radcliffe snickered, pointing at his leg, “Mr. Fairbanks, you always joke about the way I walk, right? Well, I have this man to thank for that! He broke my legs, and even after they were healed, they’re still not quite right!”

Otis Radcliffe’s gaze towards Julius Reed was filled with venom.

However, he actually owed Julius Reed his thanks. If not for being expelled from the Radcliffe Family, how could he have come to Five-river Province and become the head of North Power Electronics, making acquaintance with a whole host of rich young men?

“So there’s such a story!” Upon hearing this, Sterling Fairbanks walked over to Julius Reed with his hands clasped behind his back, “Dude, you’re ruthless! Easily breaking people’s legs… How about I give you a taste of having your legs broken today?”

“What are you doing!” Hearing this, Finn Carmichael subconsciously rushed over, standing in front of Sterling Fairbanks.

Anyone who wanted to harm the Young Master had to get past him first!

And the bodyguards behind him surged forward, confronting Fairbanks’s men.

“Gentlemen, we mustn’t harm our good relations!” Just then, Atlas Leopold hurried out to make peace.

He was in a cooperative relationship with Julius Reed, and while the Leopold Family and Julius Reed were sworn enemies on the surface, in reality, that was only the grievance between the Leopold Family and Julius Reed.

Atlas Leopold didn’t care about those details; as long as he could become the Family Head, he was willing to cooperate with anyone.

The plan to murder Atlas Leopold had already been scheduled, just waiting for the right moment to seize power.

Now, being on good terms with Sterling Fairbanks was for the same reason: to gain more support from powerful allies.

“Good relations?” Sterling Fairbanks’s eyebrows shot up as he looked at Atlas Leopold somewhat displeased, “Brother Leopold, you know these guys?”

“Not at all!” Atlas Leopold quickly shook his head, then leaned in and whispered into Sterling Fairbanks’s ear, recounting some of the depraved tales of recent years.

He hoped to get Sterling Fairbanks to back down a bit with these stories.

But instead of calming down, Sterling Fairbanks became even more excited!

“I heard that a few years ago, a big shot from the capital caused trouble and ended up with his legs broken by you guys?” He propped a foot on the coffee table, pointing at his leg, “That really shames those of us who come from the capital! Now here are my legs, if you’ve got the guts, go ahead and break them!”

“If you actually manage to break them, I’ll pay you!”

His arrogant attitude once again stirred discontent in the bar.

“Who is this guy! Just because his family has some money, he comes here to behave outrageously!”

“Exactly, one should be kind. Offending people like that, he won’t come to a good end!”

Everyone had a word to say, wishing they could rush up and give Sterling Fairbanks a thrashing, but none had the guts to do so.

“Simeon Kensington, who is that on the ground?”

Julius Reed did not pay attention to such provocation and instead looked at Simeon Kensington and another man pressing down Elize Yarrow.

He had a very favorable impression of this young lady since their encounter at the airport with Elize Yarrow and Simeon Kensington.

“The one on the ground is my brother. Today I received my acceptance letter for a graduate study abroad, so I went out with my brother to celebrate. Who would’ve thought this guy would harass me, and when my brother couldn’t stand it, they started arguing, and then…” As she spoke, Elize Yarrow’s tears streamed down her face.

“This person is my friend; let him go.”

Julius Reed looked coldly at Otis Radcliffe and the other man as he spoke.

“Humph! Who do you think you are!” Otis Radcliffe sneered with contempt, full of provocation, “Still think you’re in Gonzalez City? Think I’m the same as before? Julius Reed, today I’m going to make you recognize yourself! A loser trying to turn over a new leaf is still a loser!”

He had been holding in his breath for a long time, and now with Sterling Fairbanks by his side, it was the perfect opportunity to vent his animosity!

“Who am I? I’m your brother-in-law!”

Julius Reed strode forward.

“Stop right there!”

A burly man stretched out his hand to block Julius Reed.

“Get lost!”

Bang!

Julius Reed threw a punch, sending the burly man flying backwards.

The very next moment, he was standing in front of Otis Radcliffe.

“If your sister wasn’t Quella Radcliffe, you would’ve disappeared from this world a long time ago.”

Slap!

Julius Reed slapped Otis Radcliffe across the face, then backhanded another man, sending them both reeling and rescuing the sobbing Simeon Kensington.

“Take good care of her!”

With a gentle push, the security guards immediately stepped forward and protected Simeon Kensington.

“Mr. Fairbanks, avenge me!”

Otis Radcliffe looked at Julius Reed with a resentful gaze, yet his heart quietly rejoiced.

Although he had been hit, indeed it was Sterling Fairbanks’s face that got slapped.

The face-conscious Sterling Fairbanks would definitely not let this go easily!

Sure enough, seeing his two underlings getting beaten, Sterling Fairbanks turned around and looked coldly at Julius Reed, “Who gave you the courage!”

“I am his brother-in-law. Would killing him have anything to do with you?”

Julius Reed kicked Otis Radcliffe, “For not learning your lesson, for hanging out with these people! This kick is on behalf of your sister, this is for your dad, this for your grandad, this is for your grandma…”

“Wait!”

Otis Radcliffe rolled on the ground, clutching his fists, “My grandma has been gone for many years…”

“The old lady must be rolling in her grave because of you!” Julius Reed continued kicking forcefully, causing those around to stifle their laughter.

“What’s going on here!” Sterling Fairbanks asked impatiently, wondering how the two had become relatives.

“My sister divorced him!” Otis Radcliffe wailed, desperately protecting his head.

“If you’re divorced, then it’s not your place to discipline him!”

Sterling Fairbanks gestured lightly with his hand, and his burly men immediately surrounded Julius Reed.

“Let’s just break both your legs, that’s not too much, right?”

The woman he was interested in had been rescued, and his underlings had been beaten, which made Sterling Fairbanks feel humiliated.

“That’s quite excessive.” Julius Reed glanced at Sterling Fairbanks and asked nonchalantly, “I heard you’re doing business with the Leocadia Family?”

“What’s that got to do with you? It’s none of your business!” Sterling Fairbanks pointed at Julius Reed, “Prepare to die!”

“Protect him!” Seeing the dire situation, Finn Carmichael shouted an order, and the security guards rushed forward with batons, surrounding Julius Reed.

“You know Sophia Leocadia, right?” Julius Reed asked again.

“The name of the Leocadia Family’s young princess is not for you to call!” Sterling Fairbanks’s face darkened, grabbing a wine bottle from the table, ready to strike.

“Hold on.” Julius Reed took out his phone, browsed through the call log, and dialed a number.

“There’s someone called Sterling Fairbanks who wants to break my legs. Help me smooth things over, I’ll treat you to dinner sometime.” After finishing the call, he hung up and looked at Sterling Fairbanks, “Take a look at your phone.”

“Who are you trying to fool!” Sterling Fairbanks scoffed coldly, but the next moment his phone did indeed begin to ring.

When he saw the name on the screen, he was so scared he nearly dropped his phone.

It displayed three words.

Sophia Leocadia.
