Heartthrob Julius Reed
Chapter 236 Relatives Have Arrived_1
The other party appeared very arrogant, but Pierce Ridge was also unsure whether this person really was Brother Roman Ellsworth. š»š³š¦š¦šøāÆš·šÆš°š£āÆš.š¤šš®
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.
"Brother Roman Ellsworth? Impossible! I saw him this morning during Aron Jacksonās meeting, he said he was assigned an important task!"
On the phone, Uriah Cook hesitated for a moment and then spoke, "It hasnāt been an hour since then, how could Brother Roman Ellsworth have finished the task already? And as one of the groupās bosses, would he personally come to collect a debt? I bet nine out of ten times, this guyās an impostor!"
"Damn! If it werenāt for you, Boss, I would have been totally taken in! Youāre right, at Brother Roman Ellsworthās level, why would he come knocking for money in person!"
As he slapped his head, Pierce Ridge felt the anger in his heart reignite.
"Boss, I have to take care of him today!"
"Donāt rush! Iām 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!"
"Great! Boss, come quickly. Iāll rough him up a bit first! By the way, the Mr. Reed you mentioned, is it the one who recently..."
"Correct! Itās him! Being able to serve Mr. Reed is my honor!"
Over the phone, Uriah Cookās voice trembled slightly, "Our 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, Iāll be there in ten minutes!"
"Alright, Boss!"
After hanging up the phone, Pierce Ridge returned to his usual indifferent demeanor.
"Kid, youāre saying youāre Brother Roman Ellsworth, right?"
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? Thatās laughable!
"Donāt believe it?"
Brother Roman Ellsworth grinned, his face showing no other expression.
"I really donāt! Unless you can make me believe!"
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 wasnāt 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 Ridgeās nose!
After that, he forcefully kicked, sending him sprawling to the ground.
"Now, do you believe it?"
Having done all this, Brother Roman Ellsworth twisted his neck, his face smug with disdain.
"You..."
Pierce Ridge felt a convulsion in his stomach and curled up on the ground.
"Attack! Kill him!"
Now that he couldnāt move, all he could do was hope his employees would take down this fake Brother Roman Ellsworth.
"Stop!"
But just then, Uriah Cookās voice suddenly rang out.
"Boss?"
Hearing the voice, Pierce Ridge struggled to his feet and jogged over to Uriah Cookās Mercedes: "Thatās the guy, the fake Brother Roman Ellsworth, and he hit me!"
With his boss there, Pierce Ridge felt confident again.
"Calvin, your people are well-disciplined, arenāt they?"
Brother Roman Ellsworth approached leisurely upon seeing Uriah Cook.
"Hmph! Still pretending? Our Calvin knows Brother Roman Ellsworth, wait until you pay the price!"
Pierce Ridge said viciously from the side.
His teeth chattered with pain, and his hatred swelled.
"Brother... Brother Roman Ellsworth?"
However, Uriah Cook stood frozen in place, speaking in a flustered manner: "Arenāt you, arenāt you on an important mission?"
At todayās 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?
"Arenāt I on a mission here? But your employee seems clueless, directly opposing me and even wanting to fight me?"
Brother Roman Ellsworth straightened his clothes and slowly approached Uriah Cook, "I will report this incident to Aron Jackson exactly as it happened."
"Brother Roman! I had no idea it was you! The employee canāt see straight, please donāt hold it against me!"
Uriah Cookās voice trembled with fear.
If Aron Jackson followed up on this, he would lose everything he currently had!
"Alright! There are things I donāt want to talk about. Keep todayās incident to yourself and take your people and get out of here!"
Brother Roman Ellsworth glanced at Pierce Ridge and shook his head helplessly, "A bunch of rabble."
"Understood! Understood! But Mr. Reed instructed me to come here."
Uriah Cook said uncomfortably.
"You go back. Iāll explain this to Aron Jackson on your behalf. Moreover, your employee has already offended Mr. Reed."
After finishing his sentence, Brother Roman Ellsworth turned coldly and approached Hendrix Ridge, "Pay back the money!"
"Dad! Give them the money quickly!"
Although Pierce Ridge was scared enough, he was still rational. If they didnāt pay now, things could get much worse.
"Alright! Alright! Alright! Iāll pay back the money!"
Hendrix Ridge flashed a look at Knox Ridge, took a bank card out angrily, "All the borrowed money is in here, I havenāt touched a cent of it!"
"Good! Then I wonāt bother you further!"
Brother Roman Ellsworth snatched the bank card and vanished from Rivers Garden with his employees.
Meanwhile, the Ridge Familyās 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.
"Wife, what do we do!"
After bringing Knox Ridge home, Burl Radcliffe asked cautiously.
She saw the chat in the Radcliffe siblingsā group, and including words from Hendrix Ridge, many people were saying very unpleasant things.
If you donāt have the ability, donāt pretend to be something youāre not, youāve ended up dragging everyone down!
And those siblings echoed these sentiments.
"What do we do! What else can we do! I just canāt believe it, as if we canāt make it without a useless husband!"
Knox Ridge, touching her swollen face, remembered the string of numbers in Julius Reedās 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!
"No, Iām not talking about that! Didnāt the relatives get our notice before, saying you invited them to dine? In just half a day, Iāve 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!"
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.
"How would I know where to go!"
Knox Ridge slammed the cup she was holding onto the ground, furious, "Letās go! Find my daughter! I really canāt believe sheād leave us to die! After all, I am her biological mother!"
"Right! I think we should also find Quella Radcliffe, since sheās the chairman of Radcliffe Group, she must have money! We should ask for more, to prepare for emergencies!"
Burl Radcliffe agreed.
