What Julius Reed hadnât expected was that in just five minutes, a whopping four billion was wired directly into Quella Radcliffeâs account!
Not a cent less, and even five billion more than the price heâd set!
Although the Abbott Family was wealthy, such an amount was no small figure!
Miguel Abbott was a man of great boldness!
âRelease them! â
Now that the money was in hand, Julius Reed had no intention of troubling Benjamin Abbott and Ives Abbott any further.
When Quella Radcliffe received the bank SMS, she was so shocked that she gaped.
Four billion, she now had four billion!
Olayinka Davenport and Lance Casey beside her were green with envy, but there was nothing they could do.
âQuella, my good sister, how about I become your husbandâs mistress, is that okay?â
Lance Casey was half-joking, half-serious as she clung to Quellaâs arm, âHow about it, huh?â
âGet lost! â
Quella Radcliffe looked at her with disdain and then turned to Julius Reed, âYou fleeced Miguel Abbott out of a fortune, might the Abbott familyâ¦â
Julius Reed cut her off directly, âIf the Abbott Family wanted to oppose me, they wouldnât have sent an extra five billion! Heâs making an overture to me; truly fitting for the Abbott familyâs helmsman!â
From this alone, he felt a measure of fondness for Miguel Abbott.
After all, to make such a move when enemies surrounded him, it had proven his strategic foresight.
âI plan to take a trip to Five-river Province, and during this time, you should try to stay at home.â
After the Abbott family members left, Julius Reed sat in his chair and spoke leisurely.
He wanted to build his own financial empire, to dominate a territory in Five-river Province, at the very least!
Moreover, for Quella to develop the Radcliffe Group, she would need the support of such a force.
âBe safe.â
Quella Radcliffe smiled gently, not saying much.
From the beginning to the end, she had not interfered with anything Julius Reed did.
A man should have his own career, and all she could do was try not to burden her husband as much as possible.
Thinking back to the scenes from not so long ago, Quella could only sigh at the caprices of fate.
âForget it! Cosmo, arrange a plane, Iâll go with your mistress tonight!â
Julius Reed stood up from his chair and grabbed Quellaâs hand, âWe can put off company matters for a while, itâs been so long since weâve gone out to have fun together.â
âWait a minute! Mistress, what do you mean? Isnât she your sworn sister?â Quella looked at Julius Reed with suspicion.
When Cosmo had first arrived, she was introduced as Julius Reedâs sworn sister.
This had troubled Quella for quite a while!
She hadnât slept all night, experiencing insomnia for the first time in her life.
But in the end, she chose to trust her husband.
And now, Julius Reed was saying she was Cosmoâs mistress? âMy disciple! Sheâs just a bit mischievous! Donât take it to heart!â
Julius Reed smiled awkwardly and clapped his hands, âAlright! Weâve been under so much stress lately, letâs go relax in Five-river Province!â He had planned to go there alone, sort things out, and then bring Quella and the others over.
However, upon reflection, he knew that there were still many Shadow Warriors heading to Gonzalez City and even the Brandon Family and others were watching closely.
The safest place was right under his own eyes.
Taking Quella with him for a secretive trip to Five-river Province was like stealing a moment of leisure amidst busyness, offering at least a brief respite.
âMaster, I want to go too!â
Cosmo couldnât help but act spoilt on the side; she did not want to stay alone in this godforsaken place.
âYou need to stay here to confuse the enemy! Once this period is over, Iâll take you out for a proper holiday, how about that?â
Facing his childish disciple, Julius Reed could only cajole.
Nothing could be said or scolded, and scolding might not even be effective.
The mighty empress was now almost on the verge of crying like a child.
âNever mind, Iâll stay with mom and dad. Besides, the group has just gotten on track, and Iâm a bit worried about it. As for safety, you can rest assured, we have those four! And, Aron Jackson will also protect me.â
Quella Radcliffeâs thoughts were still on the Radcliffe Group.
The sudden rise of Julius Reed had brought her immense pressure!
Since childhood, she had always been an extremely competitive girl!
âAlright! You keep an eye on mom and dad, donât let them cause any more trouble! Remember, try to work from home as much as possible, and avoid going out.â
Julius Reed, who had planned to go to Five-river Province discreetly, now had to make his presence known.
As long as the news of his appearance in Five-river Province spread, the
Shadow Warriors would swarm there, making Quellaâs situation much safer.
Moreover, the people sent by Amadeus Fairbanks were all top-notch experts, fully capable of handling the situation.
âIâll give you a chance, protect my wife well!â
Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and called Amadeus Fairbanks.
Although this chatterbox was usually annoying, he was absolutely competent when it came to getting things done.
âMy God! Lord, rest assured! This time I, Amadeus Fairbanks, would rather have my head cut off than make the same mistake again! By the way, Iâve already taken down three lairs of Deep Cold. When do you have time to visit
âStop blathering!â
Julius Reed did not give any face to the Pavilion Master of the Willson Pavilion, hanging up the phone directly before giving Quella a deep embrace.
âWait for me to come back!â
After saying this, he turned around and left with long strides.
âQuella, your⦠your husband is so cool!â
Watching Julius Reedâs receding figure, Lance Casey was infatuated once again.
But she knew it was no use to daydream.
âNow Iâm a rich woman, shall we shop âtil we drop?â Quella pulled out a bank card and gently shook it.
âShop âtil we drop!â
Olayinka Davenport and Lance Casey, shaking off the unpleasantness of the day, hugged Quella and started spinning around.

As a major coastal city, Five-river Provinceâs transportation system was extremely well -developed!
It was even comparable to some of the giant metropolises!
Even from Gonzalez City, there were direct flights to Five-river Province!
At that moment, Julius Reed was wearing a pair of sunglasses and a white suit, looking exceptionally dazzling among the crowd.
âHandsome, Iâve been giving you hints on the plane for so long, why didnât you pay any attention to me?â
Just after getting off the plane, a young girl wearing toad sunglasses approached Julius Reed and started whining coquettishly.
âAdd me as a friend, will you? Please?â She pouted her lips, looking incredibly cute.
âFine!â
Unable to stand her persistence, Julius Reed took out his phone and flashed a QR code.
âBut not again!â
âAlright!â
The young girl was clearly very excited, and after a âdingâ sound indicating a successful scan, she turned and shouted to her best friend, âSimeon Kensington, you lost!â
âTsk, youâre good! Iâll pay for tonightâs expenses!â
The girl named Simeon Kensington, wearing a floral dress and pulling a suitcase, came over.
âSo you were making a bet!â
Hearing the conversation between the two, Julius Reed took off his sunglasses, looking slightly displeased.
âWhat else? You didnât think I really fell for you, did you?â
The young girl also took off her sunglasses and pulled a face at him.
âIâm naturally beautiful and intelligent! If you had any brains, you should have guessed I wouldnât fall for you, right?â
âThatâs true! But you really are big-chested and brainless! Just look at what youâve scanned!â
Julius Reed gave a faint smile, put on his sunglasses, and left with long strides.
âDamn it! You, you, you⦠stand right there!â
After the young girl checked her phone, her face turned pale..
