While abroad, Joel Martin had used his family’s money to buy a luxury car and would often take female classmates out for fun when he had nothing else to do.
Previously, when he returned home for holidays, his family would wait for him at the door with a car worth millions.
This time, he had intended to notify his family, but Anna Harris and the others decided to have fun on their own first and didn’t want to disturb their families. Moreover, Quella Radcliffe, upon hearing of Anna Harris’s return, insisted on coming to greet her in person.
However, Radcliffe Group had so many partnership projects going on recently that they could only send Julius Reed to replace her.
“Bro, are you kidding me?”
Seeing Julius Reed get into the taxi, Joel Martin’s eyebrows immediately furrowed.
“Who knows how many people have been in this taxi, plus it’s full of odors everywhere, and the seats are hard. How is this supposed to be for us?”
His dissatisfaction was immediately evident on his face.
Accustomed to luxury cars, having them ride in a taxi was more unbearable than killing them.
Isandro Jackson also covered his nose with his hand, his face full of disdain.
“Are you going to ride or not?”
Julius Reed’s distaste for these people grew as he watched them; wasn’t he worth far more than them? So why didn’t he have so much trouble?
What do these people have to compare with him!
And they were full of complaints everywhere!
“I’m riding with you.”
Anna Harris steeled her heart, ignoring the reactions of the others, and went straight into the taxi.
“Hey! Anna, you’ll dirty your clothes!”
Isandro Jackson anxiously yelled from the outside, as if Anna Harris had walked into a dangerous place.
But Anna Harris was indifferent, “What’s the big deal, are you coming or not?”
“Anna…”
“Damn it with all these issues! If you want a ride, I’m not going to bother now! All dressed up, shiny on the outside but rotten on the inside! What kind of thing are you!”
The taxi driver directly interrupted Joel Martin’s words, shifted gears, and drove away.
“Master, well scolded!”
Julius Reed gave a thumbs-up, he liked people with a fiery temper.
“Hey! I’ve been driving a taxi for so many years, what kind of people haven’t I carried? I’ve even driven for high-ranking officials in the earlier years, and they were so amiable! Take the big bosses from Five-river Province, I’ve driven quite a few of them.”
Through the rearview mirror, the taxi driver looked at Julius Reed and Anna Harris: “You two youngsters stay away from them, they say wealth doesn’t last more than three generations, and there’s a reason for that! Look at these people, swaggering around with just a bit of stinking money!”
“Master, we’re not a couple.”
Anna Harris said sternly.
“Ah! Then forget I said anything!”
The driver’s face flushed red with embarrassment, and he laughed awkwardly before stepping hard on the gas. It didn’t take long for them to arrive at Water Pearl.
“Uh, just a kind reminder, uncle here says, if you’re not boyfriend and girlfriend or something like that, be safe. I drive here often, carrying quite a number of people, and I’ve heard many people have caught diseases.”
The driver spoke in a strange tone as he collected the fare.
Obviously, he thought Julius Reed and Anna Harris were here for a hookup—why else would a single man and a single woman come to the Water Pearl Hotel?
Could it be to discuss life?
Embarrassed by his words, Anna Harris quickly got out of the car.
“Don’t worry, master, I’m married!”
After getting out of the car, Julius Reed didn’t forget to greet the driver.
“Got it! I understand! What man doesn’t stray, but do it in moderation, don’t get caught.”
The driver once again offered good-natured advice.
“Sure! Take care!”
Julius Reed waved with a smile and turned around to find Anna Harris with a face full of black lines.
“What’s up?”
He suddenly felt that perhaps Quella Radcliffe had put him in a tough spot.
“Nothing!”
Anna Harris said irritably, anyone spoken to that way by the driver would get upset, right? And judging by Julius Reed’s smug look, he’s probably not new to this.
“Here’s thirty thousand yuan, spend it wisely, it’s for the expenses of these next few days.”
Anna Harris pulled out a bank card from her pocket and stuffed it into Julius Reed’s hand, “Don’t refuse! Quella Radcliffe is having some difficulties right now, when you two are well-off, you can host a banquet to treat us. Also, as a grown man, can’t you go out and work to earn money?”
“What is this for!”
Julius Reed directly shoved the card back, “Don’t need money here, stay as you please. Besides, are you insulting me or Quella Radcliffe with just a few tens of thousands of yuan?”
“You… forget it! If you really run out of money, you must tell me. Also, Joel Martin is not a good person, be careful around him.”
Anna Harris sighed deeply, feeling distressed about how her best friend ended up with such a husband.
“And, just arrange for a regular hotel, it doesn’t need to be too expensive, just say it’s my suggestion. I’ll order the food, try to make them eat less.”
As she spoke, Anna Harris frowned slightly, “You shouldn’t have been so stubborn in the first place, you pushed Joel Martin away, and now he’s plotting against you!”
“Okay! Don’t worry about these things, since she’s my wife’s best friend, it’s only right that I look after you a bit. Wait, I’ll book five rooms for you.”
Having said this, Julius Reed walked with Anna Harris to the reception desk.
“Why, Mr. Reed!”
The front desk manager was naturally friendly to Julius Reed, this was a personage akin to a deity!
In the past, he single-handedly crippled Irving Harris’s leg, and they were all there to witness it.
Seeing Julius Reed returning alone now, the manager was naturally extremely respectful.
“So familiar?”
Seeing how enthusiastic the front desk manager was toward Julius Reed, Anna Harris sarcastically commented, “Looks like you come here often, even the staff here recognize you!”
She was already planning to report this to Quella Radcliffe, to prevent her friend from being deceived by a scoundrel. Spending Radcliffe Group’s hard-earned money, fooling around with other women!
Pah!
She spat out in her mind.
“Of course I’m familiar!”
The manager, obviously not understanding the meaning behind Anna Harris’s words, said with a smile, “Mr. Reed is a regular here, stopping by every three days!”
This statement, however, took on an entirely different meaning when it reached Anna Harris’s ears.
An occasional affair might be understandable, after all, they had been married for three years and slept separately.
But if he was running here every three days, that was way beyond acceptable!
“Give me five rooms!”
Julius Reed held out a hand to the manager.
“Understood! Here are your room cards!”
The manager quickly instructed, and the staff beside him immediately made the arrangements.
But just as they were about to leave, the manager spoke again.
“Mr. Reed, that girl you brought back last time was looking for you!”
After Julius Reed left in the morning, Elize Yarrow indeed came looking for him.
“Which one?”
Since the Red Widow was also staying there, Julius Reed wasn’t sure who the manager was referring to.
“The one wearing the bunny girl outfit and was in a private room with you last time!”
The manager was a straightforward person and spoke bluntly.
There was no helping it; Elize Yarrow’s wearing the bunny girl outfit had become common knowledge.
“Several of them? Bunny girl outfits? And booking rooms?”
Anna Harris’s eyeballs almost popped out.
This wasn’t just being a scoundrel, this was utterly spineless!
“No way! I must tell Quella Radcliffe about this!”
Anna Harris pulled out her phone, her face flushed with anger.
