Chapter 519: 519 Beggar Asking for Money_1

“You…”

Seeing the image on the screen, Bran Cook’s face turned ashen!

This was the photo taken on the day when he went to seek revenge and ended up being ‘educated with virtue’ by Julius Reed, getting beaten up one by one with the Cook family’s people!

“You’re really despicable!”

Seeing the murmuring crowd below, Bran Cook wished he could kill Julius Reed!

But he couldn’t, as this was a public place with countless eyes watching!

“Bran Cook actually got beaten up so badly! When did this happen?”

“The esteemed young master of the Cook Family, who returned from the capital, ended up swollen and kneeling on the ground like a dog, how unbecoming of his status!”

“Exactly! This is really embarrassing! And he still has the nerve to ridicule others?”

Seeing Bran Cook’s wretched appearance on the screen, many who originally supported him felt their faces burning with embarrassment.

Is this what a great young master is supposed to be?

Kneeling down, even nobility loses its dignity.

They are all dignified people, and what matters most to them is saving face.

Once today’s events get out, everyone will know that Bran Cook is not as glorious as he seems.

However.

Who could make Bran Cook kneel?

That was the question on everyone’s mind.

“Forget it! Truett Yarrow once suffered the indignity of crawling through someone’s legs! Bran Cook is capable of bending and unbending; in the future, he can also wash away this disgrace.”

“If it were the great young master of the capital or some major boss who made him kneel, there would be nothing to say. After all, you can’t tough it out and be like an egg smashing against a rock, right?”

Bran Cook’s lackeys immediately started making excuses.

“Everyone!”

Seeing Bran Cook in such an awkward situation, some people quickly stood up to make excuses for him.

“Let’s be honest with ourselves, who hasn’t offended someone at some point? If you often walk by the river, there’s no way to avoid getting your shoes wet!”

A young man stood up, looked around at the entrepreneurs, and shouted, “These are the deceitful tricks Julius Reed, this good-for-nothing, is using to smear Bran Cook! We must not be fooled! Submitting to someone stronger than oneself is bearing hardships with dignity! Without even thinking about it, the person Bran Cook knelt to must be a great young master from the capital!”

“Right! Julius Reed, you good-for-nothing, actually harboring malicious intentions to smear Bran Cook! These must be pictures you found on the internet. Since Bran Cook returned to Gonzalez City, he’s never had such an encounter! Tell me, in a place like the capital full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, what’s wrong with kneeling to someone stronger than yourself?”

With someone taking the lead, more people followed suit.

With what they said, Bran Cook, instead of being embarrassed, ended up looking like the victim of Julius Reed’s questionable intentions to display photos of someone kneeling.

But everyone failed to notice that Bran Cook’s face had turned from black to green!

What’s called a pig teammate, what’s called adding frost to snow!

“Bran Cook, facing a great young master from the capital who is stronger than you, this is not something shameful, you need not feel embarrassed!”

“On the contrary, Julius Reed, if you encountered Bran Cook, wouldn’t you kneel? I think you definitely would have, it’s just that Bran Cook was willing to let you save some face!”

Everyone chimed in, one after another, attacking Julius Reed.

“Really? I wasn’t aware that I had become a great young master of the capital at some point.”

Julius Reed, chuckling, pressed the remote in his hand, and the image on the screen changed immediately.

When it appeared again, it was a panoramic shot!

Julius Reed stood with his hands folded behind his back in front of Bran Cook, while Bran Cook knelt on both knees, his forehead touching the ground as if he were kowtowing.

“Hiss!”

Bran Cook’s body trembled uncontrollably; he wanted to hit someone, to kill someone!

But.

This was a public place, and he had to control his emotions.

“That is… that’s Julius Reed? The person Bran Cook is kneeling to is actually Julius Reed!”

“How could this be…”

“My God! The dignified Bran Cook, why is he kneeling before a good-for-nothing?”

The people who were just now offering flimsy excuses suddenly felt a burning pain across their faces, as if they had been harshly slapped, knocking their teeth to the ground.

Not just them, Bran Cook on the stage was the most embarrassed.

Originally, the situation wasn’t that shameful, but the dummies below were practically divine in their assistance!

Julius Reed turned into the scion of Gonzalez City?

“Actually, it was only after hearing you all say it that I knew I was the scion of Gonzalez City,”

On the stage, Julius Reed said with a hint of shyness.

Seeing this scene, Itai Huntington couldn’t help but laugh.

Bran Cook vying against Julius Reed, isn’t that like the Big Bad Wolf challenging Pleasant Goat? They aren’t even on the same level!

“Photoshopped! Julius Reed, this is Photoshopped!”

Someone shouted out loud.

“Yes! Photoshopped! How did I not think of that? Would the grand Bran Cook kneel to a good-for-nothing like you? Aren’t you afraid of shortening your life?”

“Exactly! With your amateurish Photoshop skills, you could get that done for ten bucks on the street! To think that you dare slander Bran Cook, we’ll definitely sue you and hold you legally responsible!”

The murmuring began once again below the stage.

Many people couldn’t believe that Bran Cook, so high-profile, wealthy and powerful, would kneel to a loser!

It must be Photoshopped!

At that moment, Bran Cook’s fists were clenched so tightly he practically wanted to curse at those jeering below: “Photoshop your mother’s head!”

This wave could’ve invoked everyone’s sympathy, rallying them to be outraged by Julius Reed’s reckless behavior.

But now,

everyone saw it as a big joke!

His own subordinates, like clowns leaping onto stage, kept setting Julius Reed up with assists.

“Julius Reed, doing this is somewhat despicable. If you could actually make Bran Cook kneel, that would’ve been your skill! We wouldn’t have said anything and might have even looked at you differently,”

Itai Huntington said at that moment, pretending to be angry, “But now, this is the board meeting of the Gonzalez City Business Alliance. If you’re going to make a scene, choose a better place! What status does Mr. Bran Cook hold? Would he kneel to a son-in-law like you? If he were really that weak, what face would he have left to run for General Manager? He might as well go home and babysit!”

Upon hearing that, Bran Cook nearly ground his teeth to pieces!

To outsiders, this seemed like making an excuse for himself, with every sentence targeting Julius Reed!

But the key point was, those photos were real!

He had indeed knelt before Julius Reed!

Thus, all the preceding remarks had to be listened to in reverse!

Itai Huntington, you bitch!

Bran Cook cursed inwardly while his inner rage climbed once more!

“Chairman Huntington is right! If you truly could make Bran Cook kneel before you, that would’ve been your capability! We would have respected you from then on!”

One of Bran Cook’s loyal supporters sneered from below, “But using these methods will only make everyone look down on you more!”

“Right! With Bran Cook’s status, you don’t even have the right to reflect on yourself! Could he kneel to you? The only ones who might kneel to you are beggars begging for money!”

“Hahahaha!”

A wave of laughter broke out below.

But nobody noticed that Bran Cook’s face had gone deathly pale!

His body, trembling non-stop.

“Are you sure, the only ones kneeling before me are beggars asking for money?”

Julius Reed looked at Bran Cook, pressing the remote control in his hand once more.

“Bran Cook, last time, I think I forgot to give you money.”

The image flashed, and what played next was a video clip.
