The other party appeared very arrogant, but Pierce Ridge was also unsure whether this person really was Brother Roman Ellsworth.
As one of the Five Tigers Generals, Brother Roman Ellsworth was not someone their low-level contacts could meet, and the only people who really could meet him were on the level of Uriah Cook.
âBrother Roman Ellsworth? Impossible! I saw him this morning during Aron
Jacksonâs meeting, he said he was assigned an important task!â
On the phone, Uriah Cook hesitated for a moment and then spoke, âIt hasnât been an hour since then, how could Brother Roman Ellsworth have finished the task already? And as one of the groupâs bosses, would he personally come to collect a debt? I bet nine out of ten times, this guyâs an impostor!â
âDamn! If it werenât for you, Boss, I would have been totally taken in! Youâre right, at Brother Roman Ellsworthâs level, why would he come knocking for money in person!â
As he slapped his head, Pierce Ridge felt the anger in his heart reignite.
âBoss, I have to take care of him today!â
âDonât rush! Iâm on my way there. Aron Jackson just sent instructions, telling me to assist Mr. Reed. The location happens to be at Rivers Homestead. I want to see who dares to impersonate Brother Roman Ellsworth!â
âGreat! Boss, come quickly. Iâll rough him up a bit first! By the way, the Mr.
Reed you mentioned, is it the one who recentlyâ¦â
âCorrect! Itâs him! Being able to serve Mr. Reed is my honor!â
Over the phone, Uriah Cookâs voice trembled slightly, âOur Boss Aron Jackson and Mr. Reed have a profound relationship, inseparable! Now that he has assigned this task to me, it truly shows his trust in me! Wait for me, Iâll be there in ten minutes!â
âAlright, Boss!â
After hanging up the phone, Pierce Ridge returned to his usual indifferent demeanor.
âKid, youâre saying youâre Brother Roman Ellsworth, right?â
He walked over to Brother Roman Ellsworth, resting a hand on his shoulder.
According to Uriah Cook, Brother Roman Ellsworth was on an important task. Coming here to collect money as that task? Thatâs laughable!
âDonât believe it?â
Brother Roman Ellsworth grinned, his face showing no other expression. âI really donât! Unless you can make me believe!â
Pierce Ridge waved his hand, and his men gathered around him again.
Seeing their boss like that, they knew they had been played, and that the man before them was not Brother Roman Ellsworth!
If he wasnât Brother Roman Ellsworth, then it was time for revenge!
Whoosh!
Before anyone could react, Brother Roman Ellsworth threw a punch that landed right on Pierce Ridgeâs nose!
After that, he forcefully kicked, sending him sprawling to the ground.
âNow, do you believe it?â
Having done all this, Brother Roman Ellsworth twisted his neck, his face smug with disdain.
âYouâ¦â
Pierce Ridge felt a convulsion in his stomach and curled up on the ground.
âAttack! Kill him!â
Now that he couldnât move, all he could do was hope his employees would take down this fake Brother Roman Ellsworth.
âStop!â
But just then, Uriah Cookâs voice suddenly rang out.
âBoss?â
Hearing the voice, Pierce Ridge struggled to his feet and jogged over to Uriah Cookâs Mercedes: âThatâs the guy, the fake Brother Roman Ellsworth, and he hit me!â
With his boss there, Pierce Ridge felt confident again.
âCalvin, your people are well-disciplined, arenât they?â
Brother Roman Ellsworth approached leisurely upon seeing Uriah Cook.
âHmph! Still pretending? Our Calvin knows Brother Roman Ellsworth, wait until you pay the price!â
Pierce Ridge said viciously from the side.
His teeth chattered with pain, and his hatred swelled.
âBrother⦠Brother Roman Ellsworth?â
However, Uriah Cook stood frozen in place, speaking in a flustered manner: âArenât you, arenât you on an important mission?â
At todayâs meeting, Aron Jackson personally said that Brother Roman Ellsworth had to carry out a very important mission!
In just one hour, the mission was finished?
âArenât I on a mission here? But your employee seems clueless, directly opposing me and even wanting to fight me?â
Brother Roman Ellsworth straightened his clothes and slowly approached
Uriah Cook, âI will report this incident to Aron Jackson exactly as it happened.â
âBrother Roman! I had no idea it was you! The employee canât see straight, please donât hold it against me!â
Uriah Cookâs voice trembled with fear.
If Aron Jackson followed up on this, he would lose everything he currently had!
âAlright! There are things I donât want to talk about. Keep todayâs incident to yourself and take your people and get out of here!â
Brother Roman Ellsworth glanced at Pierce Ridge and shook his head helplessly, âA bunch of rabble.â
âUnderstood! Understood! But Mr. Reed instructed me to come here.â Uriah Cook said uncomfortably.
âYou go back. Iâll explain this to Aron Jackson on your behalf. Moreover, your employee has already offended Mr. Reed.â
After finishing his sentence, Brother Roman Ellsworth turned coldly and approached Hendrix Ridge, âPay back the money!â
âDad! Give them the money quickly!â
Although Pierce Ridge was scared enough, he was still rational. If they didnât pay now, things could get much worse.
âAlright! Alright! Alright! Iâll pay back the money!â
Hendrix Ridge flashed a look at Knox Ridge, took a bank card out angrily, âAll the borrowed money is in here, I havenât touched a cent of it!â
âGood! Then I wonât bother you further!â
Brother Roman Ellsworth snatched the bank card and vanished from Rivers Garden with his employees.
Meanwhile, the Ridge Familyâs relatives, anyone who had borrowed money, were all harassed by the debt collectors and forced to pay back the money.
Many people cursed loudly in the family WeChat group, pointing their fingers directly at Knox Ridge.
âWife, what do we do!â
After bringing Knox Ridge home, Burl Radcliffe asked cautiously.
She saw the chat in the Radcliffe siblingsâ group, and including words from Hendrix Ridge, many people were saying very unpleasant things.
If you donât have the ability, donât pretend to be something youâre not, youâve ended up dragging everyone down!
And those siblings echoed these sentiments.
âWhat do we do! What else can we do! I just canât believe it, as if we canât make it without a useless husband!â
Knox Ridge, touching her swollen face, remembered the string of numbers in Julius Reedâs bank account and still found it hard to accept.
Was the money in there real?
It was definitely fake!
If Julius Reed was so rich, how could he possibly stay in the Radcliffe Family enduring humiliation, doing laundry and cooking every day, and still facing cold stares?
Also, in Gonzalez City, how could someone with a fortune of tens of billions have no information about him?
But what about those people?
Knox Ridge suspected they were acting!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became!
âNo, Iâm not talking about that! Didnât the relatives get our notice before, saying you invited them to dine? In just half a day, Iâve received so many calls already, everyone is asking when you will show up to treat them to a meal, provide accommodation, and reimburse their travel expenses!â
Burl Radcliffe explained at his side.
Those distant relatives of the Ridge Family had already started to arrive in Gonzalez City one after another, many waiting at the station, not knowing where to go next.
âHow would I Imow where to go!â
Knox Ridge slammed the cup she was holding onto the ground, furious, âLetâs go! Find my daughter! I really canât believe sheâd leave us to die! After all, I am her biological mother! â
âRight! I think we should also find Quella Radcliffe, since sheâs the chairman of Radcliffe Group, she must have money! We should ask for more, to prepare for emergencies!â
Burl Radcliffe agreed..
