“What are you doing!”
Although Atlas Leopold was beaten, his mind was still clear. Seeing Julius Reed lift the table, panic immediately surged within him.
“I’m telling you…”
“You’ve told me enough already, but when have I ever listened?”
Julius Reed said with a smile, “You know, what you’re doing is pointless. When I set my mind to something, I never listen to anyone else, because no one can stop what I want to do!”
Crack!
Under the stunned gaze of everyone, Julius Reed smashed the table harshly onto Atlas Leopold’s leg!
Accompanied by a heart-wrenching scream, Atlas Leopold passed out completely.
The bones in one of his legs were completely shattered.
The people present felt a chill running down their spines.
Before, it was just hitting! Hitting Atlas Leopold, who suffered merely superficial injuries, would heal with time.
But now it was for real!
Injuring tendons and bones, and moreover, with such cruelty!
One could say, if the hospital visit was delayed even slightly, Atlas Leopold might have faced amputation.
But as they came to their senses, excitement appeared on their faces.
Given such a grave incident, would the Leopold Family still have the mind to pursue them?
Would a few slaps even count as an issue now!
Atlas Leopold had his leg clearly broken in front of everyone!
Soon enough, after recording the video, these individuals quickly posted it in their own social circles.
“I did this favor because Ives Abbott asked me to! Every one of you is involved for your own gain, so you’d better keep it secret. Hurt yourself a bit harder later on, and say I forced you to do so. Throw all the dirty water on me. This way, the Leopold Family won’t trouble you anymore.”
After finishing all this, Julius Reed stepped out of the private room.
“Thank you.”
Ives Abbott followed behind.
She knew that after this incident, these young men would hold a bit of gratitude towards her.
But the Leopold Family’s retaliation against Julius Reed could become public.
Breaking one of Atlas Leopold’s legs!
That was the future of the Leopold Family, one of the Four Young Masters of the provincial city!
Where would the Leopold Family put their face?
Once the news spread, everyone would see the Leopold Family as an easy target.
“I told you, I did it out of respect for your father.”
Julius Reed didn’t pay attention to her, instead, he got into Miguel Abbott’s car.
Ives Abbott wasn’t shy, directly squeezing into the back seat to sit next to him.
“Hey! Now that you’ve offended the Leopold Family so severely, have you
thought about what you’re going to do next?”
Although she didn’t know Julius Reed’s specific background—someone capable of beating her up like that, and getting Miguel Abbott to willingly pay a ransom certainly couldn’t be simple!
She had sent people to investigate, but after all, she was just a young girl, unable to mobilize most of the Abbott Family resources.
Thus, the information she found was meager, just trinkets and trivial matters.
“Sorry, I have no obligation to answer you.”
Julius Reed’s eyes were slightly closed as he sat in the car, resting with his eyes shut.
And Allen personally drove towards the direction of the Waterfront Pearl.
Miguel Abbott was still there, and with such a big incident, they definitely needed to consult with Boss Abbott.
After all, in that video, everyone else was forced to take part; it was clear from the video that they were coerced.
Later on, after inflicting severe punishment on themselves and adding the broken leg incident, it would be easy to clear their names.
But Ives Abbott didn’t, when recording the video, she actually included herself in it.
It seems she wanted to show off that she could hit Atlas Leopold, but she didn’t anticipate that by doing so, she implicated herself and, by extension, the Leopold Family behind her.
After all, she was just a child, too playful for her own good.
The car gradually made its way along the road.
Because it was daytime, it wasn’t too deserted.
But the road to the Water Pearl Hotel had very few people.
This was unusual.
As one of the few large hotels in Five-river Province, the Water Pearl Hotel could almost be considered a landmark.
Usually, it would be bustling with a large influx of people, but today it was unusually quiet.
“Stop the car!”
Just then, Julius Reed suddenly spoke.
Without any hesitation, Allen immediately pressed the brake and pulled over to the side of the road.
The underlings traveling with him followed suit and stopped.
Julius Reed directly opened the car door and got out.
“Head back, don’t worry about me. When you return, tell Octavius Abbott exactly what happened today, he’ll know very well how to handle it.”
After giving his instructions, Julius Reed glanced at a black sedan parked not too far from him and turned to walk towards the woods.
Because the Water Pearl Hotel was relatively close to the suburbs, there were woods on both sides of the road.
“Big brother, where are you going?
Ives Abbott called out from inside the car.
After what had just happened, her attitude towards Julius Reed had changed significantly, even if she had been beaten and humiliated by others, none of it mattered.
What mattered was that Ives Abbott found that Julius Reed possessed all the charm a man should have.
“Go home with them!”
Julius Reed gave a brief order and instantly disappeared into the woods.
“I want to go down and take a look!”
Ives hesitated, ready to get out of the car.
“Miss! Don’t be willful! Everything that happened in the entertainment city was because of your naivety! Mr. Reed must have his reasons for acting this way,
and what use will it be for you to go now but to cause more trouble?”
Allen rarely spoke to Ives Abbott with such severity.
This had never happened before.
“But I’m worried! The Leopold Family will definitely seek revenge against him!” Ives Abbott sat anxiously in the car.
Although she was naive, she understood how formidable the Leopold Family was.
If anyone dared to hit her like that, the Abbott Family would surely use all their power to kill that person!
Of course, Julius Reed’s action had taken Ives Abbott by surprise.
She had thought that Miguel Abbott would lead people there to exact revenge, but unexpectedly, Miguel Abbott chose to keep the peace.
Not only did he pay a huge ransom, but after Julius Reed arrived in Five-river Province, they even became friends?
If Ives Abbott knew that her father was merely an underling to Julius Reed, it’s hard to say how the Abbott Family’s young mistress would feel.
“There’s a pair of binoculars here, there’s higher ground up ahead. If you really want to see, then go there!”
Allen tossed a pair of binoculars over from the driver’s seat and immediately started the car to leave the area.
As his car moved off, the other vehicles quickly followed behind and disappeared into the streets.
After they left, the black sedan slowly moved forward and stopped at the roadside, and four men in black got out.
“Been following for such a long time, you must be tired!”
As they walked into the forest, they heard Julius Reed’s voice coming from behind them.
Shortly after leaving the entertainment city, Julius Reed had noticed a car closely following him.
And it maintained a patient distance, neither too close nor too far. So Julius Reed decided to stay behind and take care of these tails himself!
“Ha, didn’t expect you to have such guts! Knowing we were tailing you, you didn’t rush to hide at the Abbott Family. You even dare to face us!”
The men said sarcastically, hands behind their backs, as they looked toward Julius Reed with a sneer.
“If I didn’t stay behind, how would I send you on your way?”
Julius Reed slowly extended his right hand, pointing at the men, “You, all come at me together!”
