Chapter 419: Chapter 419 Everywhere Friends Lewis Leocadia_1
“Important guest?”
Zane Percival was utterly baffled, where were any important guests here?
Apart from himself, who else had the right to be called an important guest by Aric Smith?
Could it be Quella Radcliffe?
After all, she was the woman Bran Cook fancied, and even he had to treat her with great courtesy.
Otherwise, there was no one else in the room worth waiting for by Aric Smith.
“It’s none of your business who! Instead of happily celebrating your birthday in the private room, why did you come here?” Aric Smith’s attitude was very cold, he didn’t care much for this scion of the Percival Family.
Perhaps the Percival family status could intimidate others, but it meant nothing to him.
“I ran into a mortal enemy, just came to settle with him.”
Zane Percival said with a smile, he hadn’t sorted out Amos Davenport yet, how could he possibly leave!
This was a gift for Bran Cook.
“Mortal enemy? Younger Percival, do you want to make trouble here in Tongque Terrace?”
Aric Smith frowned upon seeing Lewis Leocadia lying on the floor, and asked aloud, “What happened!”
He had received a message from the reception at the entrance, saying that Julius Reed had brought people over, so he hurried up to check it out.
This was the big brother of his own big brother, Aric Smith dared not neglect him.
If they came with Julius Reed, then the people in this room should all know each other.
Now that someone was beaten and lying on the ground, if Julius Reed found out, he probably couldn’t get away with it.
“This is his accomplice, quite a tough mouth! Don’t worry, Brother Aric, I guarantee I won’t cause any death.” Zane Percival stepped forward and kicked Lewis Leocadia fiercely, who let out a wretched scream.
“Stop it!”
Seeing this scene, Aric Smith knew he had to intervene, or things would get really bad when Julius Reed returned.
Those who can sit in a room are either relatives or friends.
Now this young man had been beaten like this by Zane Percival, how was he going to explain it?
“Brother Aric, what’s wrong?”
Zane Percival hadn’t realized what was going on before Aric Smith kicked him over to the ground: “Get out!”
“Why are you hitting people!”
“You even dare to hit Younger Percival, have you gone mad?”
Zane Percival’s lackeys immediately crowded around, ready to start a fight.
They were used to strutting around; they had never been involved in such a humiliating situation.
Actually, Aric Smith had intended to detain Zane Percival and ask Julius Reed how to deal with him.
But after all, the Percival Family had business dealings with Aron Jackson, and if he did that, he might displease the Percival Family.
Now, with Bran Cook slowly rising to power, if the Percival Family switched to the Cook Family at this time, they’d suffer a big loss.
That would be the transportation network of half of Gonzalez City!
“Brother Aric, why did you hit someone?”
Zane Percival had had a few drinks, and with so many people watching, getting hit was a big blow to his dignity.
Moreover, even if this matter escalated to Aron Jackson, he wasn’t afraid, since he was in the right.
“What, you’re not convinced?”
Aric Smith asked coldly, if it were not for the sake of Arlo Percival, he would have thrown Zane Percival out long ago.
“I didn’t do anything, and you kicked me in front of my brothers on my birthday; you’ve got to give me an explanation, right?”
Zane Percival, who had always wanted to curry favor with Aric Smith, knew he had no way out after being kicked like that.
His lackeys were watching behind him; he couldn’t afford to lose face.
Moreover, the Percival Family had already planned to shift allegiance to the Cook Family, and by then, with Bran Cook backing them, Aron Jackson wouldn’t dare to do much.
“You fought in my KTV, and that’s not acceptable!”
Aric Smith pointed at Lewis Leocadia on the floor, and said coldly, “Apologize!”
This was a friend of Julius Reed; although he couldn’t beat Zane Percival the same way, making him apologize was still doable.
That way, he could also explain things to Julius Reed.
“Apologize?”
Zane Percival shook his head, “No way! Why should I apologize!”
“Exactly! What status does Younger Percival have? Would he even dare to accept an apology?”
“Not killing him was already being nice, and you dare to demand that Younger Percival apologize!”
As soon as Zane Percival spoke up, the lackeys behind him immediately exploded with outrage.
They were also locals from Gonzalez City, all from well-off families, and spent their days together indulging in a life of pleasure.
Now facing trouble, they naturally wanted to protect the face of Zane Percival, the core of their circle.
If Zane Percival lost face, it was as if they all lost face together.
“What the hell is going on?”
Knox Ridge had been dumbfounded from the start.
First, a group of people came in and started beating someone up without a word, then another group came and beat them up in return.
It was too chaotic!
“Haven’t you figured it out yet? Our family’s Lewis Leocadia is that ‘important guest’ he mentioned! Why else would he help us?”
Bryson Ridge stood up from the floor, looking triumphant.
She seemed to have forgotten that just ten minutes ago, she’d been slapped in the face.
“Exactly! I know the owner of this entertainment venue. I was planning on keeping a low profile, but who knew we’d run into some blind jerks! Watch how I deal with them!”
Lewis Leocadia struggled to stand up from the floor, enduring the pain, and sat on the couch, gasping for breath.
“You really know them?”
Knox Ridge was extremely surprised. Could Lewis Leocadia really know such powerful people?
“Cousin, didn’t you just say you know the owner of the Roosevelt western restaurant, and yet you got punched without learning your lesson?”
Quella Radcliffe gave him a contemptuous look. Why did he brag wherever he went?
The owner of the Bronze Sparrow Platform was an important figure; could he really know them?
“Don’t you believe me!”
Lewis Leocadia felt exposed and somewhat annoyed.
And after being beaten so miserably earlier, now that someone was standing up for him, he immediately stood up and said to Quella Radcliffe, “I’ll prove to you right now whether or not I’m that ‘important person’ he was talking about!”
After saying this, he walked over to Zane Percival and slapped him hard across the face!
“Damn it! I gave you face, calling you brother, and this is how you repay me, by daring to hit me!”
After the slap, he even spat on Zane Percival’s face.
“Ptooey! You mongrel!”
“You dare to hit me!”
Zane Percival was initially stunned, then, gripping Lewis Leocadia by the collar, he snarled fiercely, “You bastard, I’ll kill you!”
He’d already been holding back his anger from being bullied by Aric Smith, and now this nobody dared to slap him?
You might get away from Aric Smith, but do you think you can get away from me?
At that moment, Lewis Leocadia’s heart raced, and he immediately shut his eyes, waiting for the beating.
“Stop!”
But just as Zane Percival was about to strike, Aric Smith grabbed his arm, “You can’t hit him!”
“Why not!”
Zane Percival was furious.
“Because I said you can’t!”
Aric Smith waved his hand, and his minions immediately surrounded them.
Before Smith’s arrival, it was one thing for this kid to be beaten, but if he still got beaten while Smith was present, how would Julius Reed look at him when he got back?
Seeing this scene, Lewis Leocadia looked smugly at Quella Radcliffe and Knox Ridge, “What did I tell you? Was I wrong?”
This time Knox Ridge and Quella Radcliffe were both stupefied.
Could it be that Lewis Leocadia really knew the owner of the Bronze Sparrow Platform?
Bryson Ridge was even more excited, “You have no idea what our family’s Lewis can do!”
“Let’s go!”
After a brief standoff, Zane Percival’s reason overcame his impulse.
He turned around, leading his lackeys away, planning to talk to Arlo Percival about the incident.
“Get lost!”
As they were leaving, Lewis Leocadia still threw a bottle at Zane Percival.
After everyone had left, Julius Reed sauntered into the lounge and stared at the door where Lewis Leocadia stood, baffled, “What happened here? How did you end up with a bruised face?”
