Chapter 455: 455 A Call from the Capital_1

“Big brother, how did it go?”

Aron Jackson hurriedly crushed out his cigarette butt and, with a quick jog, rushed towards Julius Reed.

This battle was like a clash of the gods; him going over would only add to the chaos and serve no purpose.

“He got away, the Three-Armed Underworld King, truly lives up to his reputation.”

Julius Reed shook his head but casually said, “Go clean up this mess. That guy killed people, now I have to wipe his ass.”

“Could he possibly…”

Aron Jackson was somewhat worried.

With such a brutal reputation, if that person really sought revenge, it would be very tricky to handle.

“Don’t worry, my card was poisoned, he won’t have the strength to challenge me again for three months.”

Julius Reed looked up at the sky and muttered to himself, “In three months, killing him will probably be as easy as flipping my hand.”

As time passed, the energy inside the Dragon Ring continuously battered the seal within his memory.

As his memory slowly recovered, Julius Reed’s abilities began to grow stronger.

But regarding that battle at the mountain summit, he couldn’t remember a thing.

It was completely elusive, beyond grasping.

“Big brother, you’re so awesome, yet you resorted to poisoning?”

Aron Jackson snickered, clearly not expecting his boss to use such a despicable trick.

“What are you talking about? I, your big brother, am knowledgeable about astronomy above and geography below. Do you know about Shennong tasting herbs? He was just a named disciple of mine who didn’t even qualify to listen to my lectures.”

Julius Reed boastfully proclaimed.

“Amazing! Then how come in the end, only Shennong is remembered?”

Aron Jackson absolutely didn’t think Julius Reed was bluffing. Eternal life and youth, all things he didn’t believe a bit!

But his boss’s appearance hadn’t changed at all over the past dozen years, and that was beyond scientific explanation.

“Because once during a lecture, I mixed up the medicines, and those disciples poisoned themselves to death after taking them. Only Shennong, who wasn’t qualified to attend, survived. Out of no choice, I passed some trivial knowledge onto him.”

Julius Reed shrugged his shoulders, equally helpless.

“Oh yeah, your sister-in-law is about to get off work. After sorting this out, come with me to Bran Cook’s private club, these people won’t be peaceful.”

“You guys, go buy some graves to bury the bodies, and make it clean!”

With a wave of his hand, Aron Jackson immediately summoned over a dozen underlings.

These people were very professional at getting the job done—after all, that was what they were responsible for.

Ding-ling-ling!

Just then, the phone in Julius Reed’s hand suddenly rang.

The incoming number was very familiar, from the capital city.

“Zane Percival’s mother, Jennifer Lopez.”

He showed the phone to Aron Jackson.

“This woman is no simple character; she has a huge reputation in the capital and is even more ruthless than Itai Huntington.”

Aron Jackson frowned and said, “Back when she wasn’t divorced from Arlo Percival, in Gonzalez City she and Itai Huntington were known as the ‘black widows.’ The reason I do business with the Percival Family is out of wariness for this woman.”

“If she cherishes her son so much, why did they divorce?”

Julius Reed looked at Aron Jackson. If Jennifer Lopez cared about Zane Percival so much, why would she run off to the capital city alone, leaving the mother and son in Gonzalez City?

“No one knows the specific reason, but Jennifer Lopez’s level of adoration for Arlo Percival was not ordinary pampering. Every summer, Zane Percival goes to the capital city. You should be careful, big brother.”

Mentioning this woman, Aron Jackson rarely felt somewhat at a loss.

A woman’s venom can be deadliest; no one knew what she was capable of.

“Hello.”

Julius Reed answered the phone and switched to speaker mode.

“Yes, is this Mr. Reed? Hello.”

A very charming voice came through the phone.

“That must be the lady; the voice sounds nice, just afraid the price might be too steep.”

Julius Reed nonchalantly spoke to Aron Jackson and then cleared his throat, quietly asking, “Do you offer home service?”

There was silence on the phone for ten seconds.

Apparently, the caller hadn’t expected this kind of opening line from Julius Reed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Mr. Reed sure knows how to joke,”

Although the woman was somewhat angry, she still maintained her composure.

“Don’t I? Well, forget it, I’m burning with desire here, I’ll talk to you later!”

Julius Reed abruptly hung up the phone.

“Big brother, this woman is probably going to be infuriated to death by you.”

Aron Jackson looked helplessly at Julius Reed, his big brother who feared neither heaven nor earth, except for Quella Radcliffe.

When had Jennifer Lopez, a renowned socialite from the capital, ever endured such an insult?

She must be furious by now!

After a full three minutes, the call came through again.

“I already told you, I’m in a hurry here! Can’t you see?”

Julius Reed said impatiently.

“Mr. Reed, if you want, I can send every woman in Gonzalez City you lay your eyes on straight to your bed, how about that?”

The woman spoke calmly.

“Oh my! You really can talk big, can’t you? I want to sleep with you, is that possible?”

After Julius Reed said this, Aron Jackson’s face suddenly changed.

This was Jennifer Lopez, a tough character and the daughter of a prominent family from the capital!

Although it was unclear why she married into Gonzalez City, she was ultimately a fearsome dragon!

Julius Reed was blatantly asking for trouble with such a remark.

“Mr. Reed, you must be kidding.”

After a silence of five seconds, the woman spoke again, “I am past my prime and may not catch your eye, but if you agree to do one thing for me, I can deliver to your bed not just the women of Gonzalez City, but even those celebrities.”

“Bragging, aren’t you?”

Julius Reed pretended not to believe.

“I am Jennifer Lopez, Zane Percival’s mother. We are all intelligent people here; surely Itai Huntington must have mentioned me to you after you knocked all my son’s teeth out that day?”

Jennifer Lopez said with a sneer.

She was certain that Itai Huntington would have revealed her identity to Julius Reed.

Having her say as much, even Julius Reed found it hard to continue his act.

Feigning fear, he said, “So it’s you! I had no idea you were so formidable. Only after I beat up Zane Percival did Itai Huntington tell me who you were. If I had known he was your son, not even a hundred guts would have been enough for me to dare to hit him!”

This realistic performance made Aron Jackson raise his thumb in admiration.

“Oh? And here I thought Mr. Reed was a man who feared neither heaven nor earth. Now that you are aware of my identity, let’s cut to the chase. Give me the video, and I will not pursue this matter any further.”

Jennifer Lopez’s tone became cold once again.

As long as the video wasn’t leaked, Zane Percival wouldn’t end up disgraced.

She didn’t care about Gonzalez City, but if the video made its way to the capital, the Lopez Family would likely put her under great pressure.

Moreover, the family’s internal support for Zane Percival would be significantly weakened.

All her years of planning might come to nothing.

“Is that so!”

Julius Reed seemed a bit troubled.

“What, Mr. Reed, do you have a problem?”

Jennifer Lopez’s tone had already turned unfriendly.

She had been exerting great restraint; otherwise, she would have already killed her way over to seize the video and put an end to this oblivious man!

But if the video was leaked, she couldn’t bear the consequences.

“You said before that as long as I agree, I can have anyone I want in my bed; is that really possible?”

Julius Reed asked somewhat shyly.

“Of course, my word is my bond,”

Jennifer Lopez paused for a moment, then replied.

“I like mature women; spend one night with me, and naturally, I’ll give you the video,”

Julius Reed said earnestly.
