Translator: 549690339
As the chairman of Red Star Group, coupled with his status as a member of the
Abbott Family, Benjamin Abbott could say he was riding high in Gonzalez City.
In the past few years, he had courted various major forces, and with the strength of the Abbott Family in Five-river Province, had won over a group of heavyweights.
Although he wasn’t strong enough to confront Aron Jackson directly, compared to others, he was likely second only to the Brandon Family and Ovidiu Cook.
Now, under the watchful eyes of all, he had already made concessions.
But the other party was aggressively pressing him without the slightest bottom line!
This inevitably filled him with rage!
Slap!
But before he could get angry, Julius Reed had sprung up to him like an arrow, backhanding him across the face in an instant!
Even Benjamin Abbott and his employees hadn’t realized what was happening when Julius Reed’s second slap already flew out!
Slap!
The crisp sound stunned everyone on the fifth floor of the Crystal Plaza.
This was Benjamin Abbott, a member of the Abbott Family!
The chairman of Red Star Group!
Octavius’s brother!
Yet such a man was slapped twice in succession by a young man!
“You fucking tired of living!”
An employee behind Benjamin Abbott stepped out full of murderous intent.
Yet before he could reach Julius Reed, Cosmo had already kicked him! Bang!
The employee felt a suffocation in his chest and was sent flying backward, crashing against the wall!
The next moment, Cosmo’s hand was locked around Benjamin Abbott’s neck.
“Want to die?”
She asked with a smile.
“Let go of big brother!”
Seeing Benjamin Abbott captured, his employees immediately descended into chaos!
They certainly couldn’t fight, but they also couldn’t just leave their boss behind and run.
With the big brother captured, these people were completely headless! “Do you think you have the right to negotiate with me?”
Julius Reed looked around at the bewildered Red Star employees with a hint of a smile on his lips.
“This is a call from our Abbott Family members, take it!”
Just at that moment, an employee took out a phone and handed it to Julius
Reed.
“I hope after this call, you’re still as arrogant as you are now!”
He said with a cold sneer, seeming certain that in a moment Julius Reed would be frightened.
“Has anyone ever told you something?”
Julius Reed said, looking at the Red Star employee in front of him.
“What is it!”
The employee frowned, his tone somewhat hostile.
The call was from Octavius Abbott.
This overlord of Five-river Province and Benjamin Abbott’s brother didn’t believe that Julius Reed would fail to show respect even to Octavius! “You have the kind of face that really asks for a beating!”
Julius Reed snatched the phone from his hand and then kicked him away!
“I don’t care who you are, but you’d better release my family member, apologize with a kowtow! If I’m in a good mood, I might leave you a whole corpse!”
An extremely hoarse voice came through the phone.
“Thanks! No need for the whole corpse, but seeing as you’re so particular, I can send you two whole corpses instead!” After saying this, Julius Reed then asked, “What’s your name?”
“Benjamin… Benjamin Abbott…”
With his neck clamped, Benjamin Abbott could only speak in an unclear voice.
“And you?
“Ives… Ives Abbott…”
Ives Abbott, who was next to Benjamin Abbott when he was captured, was completely dumbfounded.
She had even forgotten to cry and didn’t dare to say any more.
“Very well, Ives Abbott and Benjamin Abbott, head to West Lake Pier to collect the bodies in half an hour! If you’re late, the bodies might have been eaten by the fish!”
After obtaining an answer, Julius Reed said calmly into the phone.
“You dare! I warn you, if you lay so much as a finger on them…”
Snap!
“Ah! Dad, save me!”
Before Miguel Abbott could finish his sentence, Cosmo, with one hand holding Benjamin Abbott, slapped Ives Abbott’s face hard with the other.
“Now I’ve not only touched their sweat, but I’ve also hit someone! Next up is sending them to West Lake Pier to feed the fish!”
Julius Reed glanced at Benjamin Abbott, sending shivers down his spine.
“Who are you!”
Knowing threats were useless, Miguel Abbott refrained from any further harsh words!
Doing so was utterly pointless and could even further infuriate the opponent, jeopardizing the safety of his daughter and brother!
He needed to stabilize the situation if there was any chance of revenge! “Who I am is none of your business!”
Julius Reed hung up the phone directly and waved to Cosmo, saying, “Throw the two of them at West Lake Pier.’
“No! I beg you, I was wrong! Please spare my life!”
While crying, Ives Abbott pointed at Wellington Radcliffe and said, “It was all his idea; he told me this beautiful lady was mean to him and asked me to take revenge for him! Now that you’ve beaten him, can you spare me?”
Now she was utterly hopeless!
The opposite party really dared to do anything.
The reputed gold-sign of the Abbott Family held no sway today either.
“I can give you money as well! Just say the amount, and my dad can give you whatever you ask for!”
At this time, Ives Abbott was surprisingly rational and no longer spoke harshly, even snowmg weaKness voluntarily.
‘Whatever beef you have with me, come at me! Ives is just a child!”
Suspended mid-air, Benjamin Abbott yelled unclearly, seemingly truly worried Julius Reed would toss the two of them into the sea.
“Ring, ring-ring!”
Just then, the phone rang again.
“I told you, West Lake Pier is where you collect the bodies.” Julius Reed picked up and said impatiently after answering.
“Are you Julius Reed?”
From the other end of the phone came Miguel Abbott’s voice.
Contrary to before, his tone now held a tint of anxiety and even fear.
The previous arrogance had vanished without a trace.
“That’s right! You’re quite adept at investigating! Now that you know who I am, feel free to come and avenge yourself whenever you want.” Julius Reed said nonchalantly.
He seemed to not regard the overlord of Five-river Province at all.
“I apologize! I was blind and didn’t recognize Mount Tai! Today’s incident, the responsibility is all on us! I implore Brother Reed to show mercy, whatever your demands, just name them! Consider it an apology to my own family!”
From the other end of the line, Miguel Abbott’s voice even carried a hint of pleading.
“What did you say?
This time it was Julius Reed’s turn to be a bit taken aback.
Could it be that the Abbott Family, which had been so tough just a moment ago, was now willing to bow down?
But what he didn’t know was that his deeds had already spread throughout Five-river Province.
Apart from some diehard enemies, everyone else chose to stay away!
After all, several big shots had fallen at the hands of this rising star from Gonzalez City.
Miguel Abbott certainly wouldn’t dare risk the lives of his daughter and brother.
“If Mr. Reed is willing to spare my daughter and brother this once, consider it a favor I, Miguel Abbott, owe you! Should Brother Reed ever need anything, I, Miguel Abbott, will not hesitate! And now, you can make any demand!” Miguel Abbott said once again, sincerely.
Towards a person like Julius Reed, he could only try to close the gap between them, never to antagonize!
As a businessman, he was well aware of the interests at stake.
Stanislaus Potter, Maurice Yarrow, haven’t they all suffered setbacks?
If he took the initiative to show goodwill now, once Julius Reed defeated these opponents, Five-river Province would undoubtedly have to redivide the cake!
“Alright! Since Mr. Abbott is so forthcoming, I won’t say too much! Your daughter for two billion, and your brother for 1.5 billion, isn’t that a fair amount?”
Julius Reed immediately made a demand like a lion opening its mouth wide..
