Chapter 387 - 387 Still a Cat_1

“`

Hearing this, the previously ferocious Aaron Martin suddenly stopped dead in his tracks.

He faintly sensed that something was amiss.

“How have things been recently?”

Julius Reed asked Aron Jackson.

“Not bad! No different from before.”

Aron Jackson walked over with his hands clasped behind his back, grinning from ear to ear.

At this moment, Aaron Martin was completely dumbfounded.

Not many in Gonzalez City dared to speak to their boss like that!

Not to mention Gonzalez City, even those wealthy businessmen from Five-River Province wouldn’t dare to be so casual.

In Gonzalez City, Aron Jackson’s name was the law!

“So, Aaron Martin, right?”

Julius Reed approached Aaron Martin.

Aaron Martin nodded dumbly.

“You can hit me later, I need to talk to my friend first.”

Julius Reed patted Aaron Martin on the chest and snatched the wooden stick from his hand to toss it away.

“That on your body is definitely a cat, really. If you don’t believe me, ask your boss what this is?”

“A cat!”

Aron Jackson nodded and started to converse with Julius Reed.

“Things have been a little turbulent in Five-River Province lately!”

Julius Reed gazed at the night sky and sighed.

“Then I’ll find a way to restore the peace,” Aron Jackson said with a smile. “At least in Gonzalez City, I can make it peaceful!”

“And what if someone doesn’t want it to be peaceful here?”

Julius Reed looked at Aron Jackson and smiled, “Some people are too accustomed to a peaceful life; they are always looking for some excitement.”

“If someone doesn’t want it to be peaceful, I’ll make it peaceful! I’ll send him to the morgue, how about that?”

Aron Jackson, with his hands still clasped behind his back, lacked any hint of his usual bossiness.

Aaron Martin really was stunned!

In all his time at the group, this was the first time he had seen Aron Jackson so relaxed and chatting so happily with someone.

Who in the world was this Amos Davenport?

“I have nothing more to do, I should take my wife home now.”

Julius Reed patted Aron Jackson on the shoulder. “Bran Cook has plenty of money, you can ask him for more without issue!”

Cold sweat broke out on Aaron Martin’s forehead again.

Dare to pat Aron Jackson on the shoulder?

Was this guy crazy?

But not only did Aron Jackson not mind at all, he also turned to Quella Radcliffe and very courteously said, “If sister-in-law ever needs anything in Gonzalez City, just come find me. Don’t consider me an outsider.”

“Mhm.”

Quella Radcliffe nodded, her expression very calm.

If someone else heard Aron Jackson say such words, they would probably kneel down on the spot and be eternally grateful.

But these two seemed completely normal, without a hint of surprise.

“Brother, it’s getting late today. Come over to my place tomorrow, we’ll eat and drink well, then you can hit me, okay?”

Julius Reed looked troubled as he negotiated with Aaron Martin.

“Thump!”

Aaron Martin knelt on the ground, bringing his hands together, “I was blind as a bat! Brother Dragon, if you ever need anything from Aaron Martin, just say the word! Through fire and water! I won’t even blink!”

He now realized that this man knew Aron Jackson.

And it seemed their relationship was no shallow one!

As for what he had done earlier…

Thinking about his earlier actions, Aaron Martin was so scared he pissed his pants.

“You said you were going to discount my brother?”

Julius Reed bent down and asked.

“There was something about that?”

Aron Jackson’s tone turned somewhat strict.

“No! Brother Dragon, you heard wrong, I said I would give myself a discount!”

Aaron Martin looked up, smiling apologetically.

“Is that so? Then let’s see if it’s discounted?”

Julius Reed asked cheerily.

“`

“Take a good look!”

Aaron Martin took a deep breath, picked up a wooden stick from the ground, clenched his teeth, raised it, and muttered, “Mom, wife, I’m sorry! Your grandson and son, I’m afraid they’re done for!”

After saying that, he was about to stab down fiercely!

“Forget it! There’s a woman comrade here.”

Julius Reed snatched the wooden stick away and tossed it aside, clapping his hands, “I’m leaving first, my wife is tired.”

“Okay!”

Aron Jackson nodded without saying anything more.

After this group of people left, Aaron Martin was so scared he could not get up from his knees.

His limbs were weak, and he collapsed to the ground.

Rather than kneeling, it looked more like he was sprawling…

“If you ever disrespect that person again, I’ll kill your whole family!”

After leaving behind these words, Aron Jackson turned and left.

“Yes…”

Aaron Martin only felt his mouth dry and eyes seeing stars.

…

After returning home, Anna Harris went straight to her room to sleep because she was angry.

It left only Julius Reed and Quella Radcliffe sitting in the living room.

“Your dad’s car is outside the clubhouse.”

Julius Reed said.

“What!”

Quella Radcliffe was shocked at first, then grew somewhat angry, “I knew it, why else would my mom keep telling me these past few days how great Bran Cook is, it looks like she’s taken a bribe!”

In this world, such a practice of selling one’s daughter is probably unique.

“Haven’t you gotten used to it yet?”

Julius Reed picked up a cup of tea and took a gentle sip.

“That’s true…”

Quella Radcliffe gave a bitter smile, such parents were really top-quality—in a bad way.

But no matter what, they were indeed her biological parents.

“What do you plan to do about the company?”

Julius Reed put down his teacup and sat up straight.

“I don’t know. Bran Cook is narrow-minded; you heard his words today too, he won’t stop until he kills off the Radcliffe Group.”

Quella Radcliffe felt a headache coming on as she spoke about this matter, she rubbed her head helplessly and said, “I’m afraid this company left by grandfather will truly end up being acquired. But no matter what, I will do my utmost to fight to the end.”

As she said this, a glint of determination flashed in her eyes.

Unwilling to give up!

“I actually have an idea.” Julius Reed noticed Quella Radcliffe’s slight movement, stood up and walked behind her, and began to gently massage her.

After his touch, Quella Radcliffe felt much more relaxed in her head.

“What idea? You saw it too, even the general manager of the Willson Group is getting involved. I know Aron Jackson is your friend, but once the Willson Group intervenes, even he can’t stop it.”

After a pause, Quella Radcliffe shook her head helplessly, “Now the businessmen in Gonzalez City are all listening to Bran Cook, we’ve lost.”

The rich second generations present at today’s gathering were representing the interests of their respective families.

They were sent by their families to attend with this purpose in mind.

Lately, Ovidiu Cook has been keeping a low profile—behind closed doors the whole day, as if he has encountered some problems.

Given that he was previously also closely associated with the Radcliffe Group, and others close to him like Miguel Abbott and Stanislaus Potter have already run into trouble, it’s hard not to let one’s imagination run wild.

With Bran Cook coming to Gonzalez City bearing the wishes of the major families from the capital, he was very welcome among the local businessmen.

Ovidiu Cook has ruled here for many years, and many wealthy merchants have been more or less oppressed by the Titan Group.

Now is an opportunity!

To replace Ovidiu Cook!

In such a situation, Quella Radcliffe had no chance of turning the tables!

The small Radcliffe Group, how could it fight against the alliance of so many people?

“Actually it’s very simple, Bran Cook wants to set up a business alliance, right? The Radcliffe Group, being part of Gonzalez City, naturally qualified to join. If you enter, perhaps things will be different.”

Julius Reed said with a smile.

“Stop joking, what can change if I go?”

Quella Radcliffe gave a bitter smile.

“I’ll make you the chairman.”

Julius Reed whispered into her ear, “What you want, I’ll give it all to you.”
