Chapter 78 - 77 Encountering an Acquaintance 1

Translator: 549690339

When Julius Reed returned to Radcliffe Group, he actually met two acquaintances at the door.

Zade Radcliffe was pushing Otis Radcliffe, who was sitting in a wheelchair, towards the company with a smile and a laugh.

Although he didn’t know what they were talking about, that schadenfreude grin said it all; it couldn’t be anything good.

Nine times out of ten, it had something to do with Zade Radcliffe transferring the company’s liquid assets that morning. After all, pulling the rug out from under someone like that was just too cruel!

It left Quella Radcliffe with no way out.

Julius Reed had always been puzzled why, as a third-generation member of the Radcliffe family, Quella Radcliffe had become a person everyone detested within a short three years? Was it really just because she married him?

If Zade Radcliffe knew his granddaughter’s husband was the Young Master of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, would he still treat Quella Radcliffe this way?

But obviously, Julius Reed would not give the opportunity to such an ungrateful person.

“Old man, Otis, hello there!”

Since he’d run into them, he had to greet them.

However, when they saw Julius Reed, their expressions immediately turned cold. The previous smiles vanished, replaced by faces full of murderous intent! “Heh, Julius Reed, just wait for you and your stinky wife to be on the run!”

Though he was shaken, Otis Radcliffe still spoke through clenched teeth, unable to swallow his anger.

“That’s your sister you’re talking about. Otis, your quality is really low!”

Julius Reed shook his head and didn’t argue with him. But the kid indeed deserved a beating and could take one—it was quite impressive that he managed to wake up within a day.

You should know that for leaking Quella Radcliffe’s information, Julius Reed’s response was quite severe.

“Don’t be too smug! You remember our agreement, don’t you?”

Zade Radcliffe instinctively pushed the wheelchair backward to keep Otis Radcliffe out of harm’s way, should Julius Reed lash out again.

Looking at his grandson-in-law, who had undergone a drastic change in temperament, he sneered, “Before I came here, I received news that Golden Eagle Group had already started its retaliation! But Chairman Potter and I have talked it over—as long as you two get out of the company, he won’t make it difficult for our group anymore.”

“As soon as the company’s market value declines, you two will have to get out like dogs! I’m afraid that Quella Radcliffe won’t even be able to sit in the chairman’s position for one day, right?”

A smug smile flickered across Otis Radcliffe’s face. As long as this couple left the company, his path to the chairmanship would be clear!

If by luck they managed to survive the Potter family’s retaliation, he would definitely seek revenge!

Dealing with two penniless and powerless people who had nowhere to turn, he was very confident. Moreover, reliable sources informed that Titan Group had completely severed ties with the couple.

Thinking about it, it made sense; Ovidiu Cook, as the richest man in Gonzalez City, how could he afford to offend Golden Eagle Group just for a woman? “Even if it’s just for one day, it seems better than you. If I’m not mistaken, you haven’t even sat in that chair, have you?”

Julius Reed didn’t care about his words; why would an elephant care about an ant’s feelings? If annoyed, it could simply trample it to death.

“You… Good! Good! Good!”

Otis Radcliffe was so rebutted he had no words left. How could he have not sat in that chair? When Zade Radcliffe was away, he would sneak in and sit for a while, fantasizing about being the chairman. But that was something absolutely no one else could find out.

“Grandpa!”

Just as the air was thickening with tension, a voice broke the standoff.

Following the source of the sound, they saw Wellington Radcliffe, Tess Radcliffe, and other members of the Radcliffe Clan getting off a coach.

Today wasn’t any special day, so why were these people showing up all of a sudden?

Julius Reed turned around and noticed the cold smirk on Otis Radcliffe’s face, and he instantly understood what was going on.

It seemed that father and son had long plotted everything, waiting for Quella Radcliffe to be disgracefully ousted from the Radcliffe Group.

“Well, well, if it isn’t Julius Reed! Who would’ve thought you’d be here?”

Wellington Radcliffe was still speaking in that highly irritating tone. The incident of Otis Radcliffe being beaten up was now known to everyone in the Radcliffe Family, and their gaze towards Julius Reed was filled with hatred.

However, this son-in-law who had been subject to humiliation not long ago was now someone they dared not provoke.

“Good, the audience has arrived, and the show should begin now.”

Julius Reed gave a faint smile, turned around, and walked into the building.

Watching his departing figure, Otis Radcliffe asked with some concern,

“Grandfather, are we sure about this?”

He and his grandfather had been battling Julius Reed for so long, each time full of confidence. But in the end, they invariably ended up utterly defeated.

“Don’t worry! If anything, blame him for offending the Potter Family! Within the entirety of Five-river Province, who would dare to oppose Golden Eagle Group? This time we’ve managed to turn misfortune into a blessing. Though a loss is inevitable, we can legitimately free ourselves from Titan Group’s two billion breach of contract agreement!”

Zade Radcliffe looked towards the doors of the Radcliffe Group, full of confidence, “With those three hundred million in liquid funds, I can still make a comeback!”

Having operated in Gonzalez City for many years, he had already built a vast network of connections. With monev in hand, constructinq the next Radcliffe

Group would just take a few years.

“Great! Let’s go in then, and see what Quella Radcliffe has to say!” Otis Radcliffe clenched his fists, a cold smile emerging at the corner of his mouth.

It was only when Julius Reed walked into Quella Radcliffe’s office did they learn the true purpose of why these people had come.

Although Quella Radcliffe was the Chairman, she held no shares of her own. Upon hearing the news that Golden Eagle Group had made a move, Zade Radcliffe joined with the Radcliffe Clan to announce a board meeting.

Because they all owned corporate stocks, they had the complete right to do so.

And the Radcliffe Clan members who rushed over did so precisely for this matter.

“Twelve, the Potter Family has made their move.”

Seeing Julius Reed return, Quella Radcliffe hurriedly walked over and gently relayed the day’s events.

Without knowing when, she had come to see Julius Reed as her sole support.

“But what’s strange is that at this critical juncture, Titan Group has injected ten billion! I can’t see what benefit there is in doing so?”

While she was distraught with worry, a finance staff member called to say that Titan Group had officially invested in the Radcliffe Group.

Ten billion, for the currently shaky Radcliffe Group, was an enormous sum!

“Sky Reed is my relative, and he has a certain influence within Titan Group. Besides, if Ovidiu Cook could become the wealthiest man in Gonzalez City, he must have his unique insights.”

Julius Reed said with a smile, trying to comfort her. If only his silly wife knew that she was the lady boss of Titan Group, he wondered what she would think.

But he couldn’t say it now, because there were too many things that couldn’t be explained.

“I’ve had people check, and they say that all this was decided by a newly appointed president of Titan Group.”

Saying this, Quella Radcliffe gave Julius Reed an annoyed glance: “You really think your relative can do anything, huh.”

“Chairman, all the shareholders have arrived at the conference room, now we’re only waiting for you.”

As they were conversing with light-hearted banter, the secretary came over and knocked on the door to remind them.

“Let’s go see their wild ambitions.”

Julius Reed gently took Quella Radcliffe’s hand and strode towards the conference room..
