Not long after everyone settled down, Tess Radcliffe arrived as well.
She naturally knew about the event, so she never intended to make a wasted trip.
But what she didnât expect was that Julius Reed somehow obtained a card.
He could actually dine at Azure Percival.
And it was even in the Imperial Hall!
After getting the news, the vain Tess Radcliffe hurried over by taxi.
She had eaten at Azure Percival a few times, but always in the main hall.
As for the Imperial Hall, she really wanted to see what it was like.
As soon as Tess Radcliffe reached the hotel entrance, she saw Otis Radcliffe, Wellington Radcliffe, and Calvin Leopold discussing something at the door.
Wellington Radcliffeâs face was flushed red, looking very angry.
âThis son of a bitch needs to be taught a lesson, even daring to mess with me!â
The more he spoke, the angrier he got.
As a grandson of the Radcliffe Family, the old manâs doting on Wellington Radcliffe was no less than on Otis.
Wellington Radcliffe had everything handed to him at home, and everyone had to give way to him.
Having been snubbed by Julius Reed today, his rage was understandable.
You should know that Wellington Radcliffe never had much respect for his brother-in-law.
âWhat are you three doing?â
Swinging her hips, Tess Radcliffe approached with her bag in hand.
âThat old bastard Julius Reed wonât let me in to eat! Heâs obviously trying to humiliate me!â
Wellington Radcliffe bit his teeth, his breathing growing more rapid.
He looked at Tess Radcliffe and Calvin Leopold, saying, âSister, brother-in-law, you have to stand up for me!â
The thought that everyone else could enter and only he could not, Wellington Radcliffe felt more and more aggrieved.
âAlright!â
Calvin Leopold patted his shoulder, consoling, âLeave this to your brother-in-law. Silas Cook and I have a bit of a relationship. Jaxen Brandon has booked the place today, and I heard about it through Silas. I didnât expect that son of a bitch Julius Reed to come up with a card from somewhere, ruining our good plan!â
âSilas Cook? Is it the Silas Cook from Sky Victory Bar?â
A glint appeared in Wellington Radcliffeâs eyes.
Naturally, he had heard of Silas Cook, who was somewhat famous in Gonzalez City.
Now that he could sit and drink with Jaxen Brandon, it was clear he had a lot of clout.
Sky Victory Bar was owned by Aron Jackson, and Silas Cook was in charge of overseeing it.
âThatâs right, the same Silas Cook! My dad opened an entertainment complex these past few years, so Silas and I are somewhat acquainted too. In a bit, Iâll have a word with him, and weâll find an opportunity to take care of that son of a bitch Julius Reed!â
A smug look crossed Calvin Leopoldâs face.
âBrother-in-law, youâre something else, even knowing Silas Cook! Weâre counting on you today!â
Envy colored Otis Radcliffeâs face from the side.
Although he was the general manager of Radcliffe Group, when it came to these societal figures, he only knew Black Bear from the north of the city.
Black Bear worked for money. It didnât matter who you were, as long as you paid.
But Silas Cook was different â he was particularly upstanding and had a strong sense of brotherhood.
âBrother-in-law, Iâll bankroll tonightâs meal to treat you and Silas!â
Wellington Radcliffeâs mood brightened, his expression lively in a flash.
âYou two go ahead and get inside to avoid any suspicion. Iâll go talk to Silas Cook!â
After saying that, Calvin Leopold turned and headed towards the main hall on the first floor.
â¦
By the time Tess Radcliffe entered the private room, everyone was already seated.
The Imperial Hall was quite spacious, with ceilings over five meters high, covered in crystal chandeliers.
The entire room was bigger than the Radcliffe Groupâs conference room and came with thirteen dedicated waitstaff.
The employees took out their phones one by one, showing off pictures in their friend circles.
You should know that being able to dine at Azure Percival was already a great honor, let alone in the Imperial Hall.
âOh, my dear sister!â
As she entered the room, Tess Radcliffe rushed over to Quella Radcliffe.
âI really didnât expect you to be so capable! You know, even our father has never dined in this Imperial Hall!â
She looked around, shaking her head and remarking, âTsk, tsk, tsk, quite impressive indeed!â
âItâs Juliusâs friend, we got a card from him, thatâs how we could get in,â
Quella Radcliffe replied with a smile.
âReally? I didnât expect Julius to be so capable!â
A trace of disdain flashed across Tess Radcliffeâs face, as she had already concluded that Quella Radcliffe and Sky Reed were involved, and she even felt a bit of sympathy for Julius.
But to be honest, she was a little envious.
Although Calvin Leopoldâs family was wealthy, Sky Reed was young and promising with limitless potential.
âHey! Waiter, add a chair for me!â
Seeing that the seats were just enough, Tess Radcliffe, with her hands on her hips, approached an employee of the Radcliffe Group, âStand up for a moment, you can sit down again after the chair is added.â
The employeeâs name was Blossom Reed, a customer service manager at the Radcliffe Group.
Among the employees present today, she was the closest to Quella Radcliffe.
So, Tess Radcliffeâs action was quite like killing the chicken to scare the monkey.
Although Blossom Reed was extremely reluctant inside, she simply couldnât afford to offend Tess Radcliffe, who was notoriously difficult to deal with.
âHurry up!â
Tess Radcliffe was getting impatient, and she simply pushed Blossom Reed to the side.
The rest of the employees were dissatisfied, but not one dared to stand up.
âWait a minute!â
Just then.
Julius stood up and looked at Tess Radcliffe, grinning, âSis, the seats were booked by Quella Radcliffe, and since you didnât show up at the time, we didnât reserve one for you.â
âJulius, what do you mean!â
Tess Radcliffe frowned, looking at Julius.
âThe seats, they were already booked. Blossom Reedâs seat, no one can bully their way into it,â
Julius met Tess Radcliffeâs gaze unflinchingly.
âWell, Iâm taking it today! What are you going to do about it?â
Tess Radcliffe became unstoppable when her fiery temper flared up.
âGet lost!â
She pushed Blossom Reed to the ground and sat down on the chair with a swagger, cursing continuously, âThere, Iâm sitting! What are you going to do about it? People donât even realize when they are being spineless.â
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Quella Radcliffe with weird glances.
Some things, they had only guessed in their hearts.
But when Tess Radcliffe spoke them out loud, it was obviously different.
âSis, watch your words!â
Quella Radcliffe wasnât a fool, how could she not understand what Tess Radcliffe was implying.
âOh, if you donât want others to know, donât do it at all,â
Tess Radcliffe gave a cold snort, speaking in a sarcastic tone, âIf you did it, donât be afraid of people talking!â
âYou!â
In front of so many company people, Quella Radcliffe was so angry her teeth itched.
Just then, her hand was suddenly gripped by someone.
âIâll handle this,â
Julius smiled faintly. He turned to the waiter at the door, âThere is someone causing trouble here, please deal with it.â
âYes, Mr. Reed,â
The waiters nodded and quickly approached Tess Radcliffe.
âMaâam, please leave!â
âDamn it! I want to see who dares to kick me out! Do you know who I am? Iâm her big sister!â
Tess Radcliffe pointed at Quella Radcliffe, impatiently yelling at the waiters, âGet lost! Our familyâs matters are none of your business!â
Being used to bossing people around on a daily basis, she didnât show any courtesy to these waiters.
But this was Azure Percival, not an ordinary restaurant.
âCausing a scene here?â
A few waiters sneered, dragging her out one on each side.
âWhat are you doing! Get your dirty hands off me! A bunch of lousy workers, daring to offend me! Iâll go talk to your manager!â
Tess Radcliffe shouted loudly, but the waiters, as if they hadnât heard, dragged her outside and then pushed her down the stairs.
