Chapter 241: Chapter 2401 am Biased_l

The day for the Willson Group’s ceremony had arrived before anyone knew it.

Notables from Five-river Province and rich businessmen from the cities below all arrived at the building ahead of time, taking their seats according to the sequence number indicated.

The Radcliffe Group was no exception, surprisingly receiving two spots on the invitation.

However, Quella Radcliffe didn’t attend with Zade Radcliffe, but instead rushed to Five-river Province with Dempsey Davenport in tow.

In just two short days, the world of martial arts was in turmoil.

It began with the demise of the leader of Deep Cold in Gonzalez City, followed by the queen’s employees who infiltrated Five-river Province en masse, commencing a thorough purge.

Many Shadow Warriors ambushed here didn’t even have a chance to flee before they were tragically killed.

But for the ordinary businessmen, these events had nothing to do with them. “Mr. Leopold! I didn’t expect you to arrive so early!”

Irving Harris was sitting in a wheelchair, with someone slowly pushing him from behind.

After the incident at the Pearl on the Water, Irving Harris chose to lay low completely. Even though rumors swirled endlessly in Five-river Province, it seemed the Limping Man didn’t care and remained unmoved.

On the other hand, the Leopold Family had been actively contacting various parties, attempting to corner Julius Reed within Five-river Province.

“It turns out to be Brother Harris, now’s your leg Injury(”

Whitley Leopold asked as if without care, but in reality, he was provoking Irving Harris.

The news about the crippling of his leg had already spread throughout Five-river Province; any somewhat capable businessman had heard of it.

It was hardly a secret any longer.

Yet, Irving Harris acted as if he couldn’t hear the insinuation in Whitley Leopold’s words, replying with a chuckle, “Everyone calls me Vann Harris, and I’ve always said that name was bad luck! I used to have one good leg at least, but now look, I’m completely a limping man!”

Confronting Whitley Leopold’s intentional or unintentional mockery, Irving Harris didn’t care in the slightest, instead choosing to laugh at himself.

“Ah! Brother Harris was once a hero, seeing you like this truly makes one feel regretful!”

Whitley Leopold sighed and his words carried a tone of pity.

Actually, he was only trying to irritate Irving Harris, aiming to have them both back on the same side to face a common enemy, Julius Reed.

“It’s fine!”

Irving Harris laughed out loud, shaking his head, “I’m old now, I just want to live out my days in peace.”

With such a simple sentence, he directly cut off Whitley Leopold’s intentions.

“Brayden, this man is extremely cunning, you must be careful in your dealings!”

Watching Irving Harris’s departing figure, Whitley Leopold whispered to Brayden Leopold, advising him. “Understood, Grandfather!”

Brayden Leopold nodded his head.

With the help of Julius Reed, he had almost earned Whitley Leopold’s trust, subtly becoming the next young successor.

Atlas Leopold had awoken, but after such a heavy blow, he was in a state of dejection, hardly any different from a disabled person.

The extensive Leopold Family naturally wouldn’t let someone incapacitated become the Family Head, and Atlas Leopold being reduced to such a state also fully revealed his inadequacies, proving he wasn’t suitable to lead the Leopold Family.

This time, the Willson Group gave a generous allotment of spots to local tycoons of Five-river Province at their guest reception.

A major family like the Leopolds could bring ten people.

As wealth and status declined, the number of people invited from each enterprise gradually reduced.

The Radcliffe Group’s position was towards the back of the middle, and although it couldn’t compare with other large enterprises, within the small area of Gonzalez City, it was already considered the best spot.

“President Radcliffe, look, who is that!”

Dempsey Davenport furrowed her brows, pointing to a location not far from where they were.

Following her gaze, Quella Radcliffe was surprisingly able to see Zade Radcliffe and Otis Radcliffe, the grandfather and grandson duo.

They were sitting together with the president of the Far East Group from Five-river Province, chatting and laughing.

Seemingly sensing Quella Radcliffe looking in that direction, Otis Radcliffe turned his head and their eyes met.

In Otis Radcliffe’s eyes, there was actually a sense of disdain and mockery.

Their seats were not bad, located in the middle and towards the front, significantly better than the Radcliffe Group’s.

“The president of Far East Group had a good relationship with Grandpa when they were young. In fact, our Radcliffe Group even collaborated with them, but eventually, the Far East Group moved to Five-river Province, and our contact

ceaseu explained Quella Radcliffe patiently to Dempsey Davenport.

Although it was not clear what benefits Zade Radcliffe had offered the Far East Group, being able to bring two people at once must have cost a pretty penny.

After all, businesspeople are not known to wake up early without the prospect of profit.

“No wonder!”

Dempsey Davenport shook her head and muttered softly, “President Radcliffe, your grandfather is no simple man. Having just been setback, he managed to find a new backer in such a short time. You must be vigilant!”

Despite Zade Radcliffe being Quella Radcliffe’s grandfather, Dempsey Davenport still felt compelled to voice a warning.

Quella Radcliffe had been kind to her, and although Dempsey Davenport was quite capable, had she been anyone else, it would have been impossible for her to be immediately seated in the position of chief financial officer.

“I know.”

Quella Radcliffe nodded and said no more.

At this moment, there was still half an hour before the celebration would begin, and everyone started chatting and discussing in turns.

After all, the rather mysterious company was about to slowly unveil its veil.

“Miss, why do you look somewhat familiar?”

As Quella Radcliffe and Dempsey Davenport were discussing the company matters, a particularly discordant male voice reached their ears.

Quella Radcliffe looked up and saw a man in his thirties wearing a black suit, looking towards her.

“You may be mistaken!”

Quella Radcliffe promptly responded when she realized she did not recognize the man.

“Hello, my name is Richard, the owner of Fast Logistics in Five-river Province.

Stanislaus Potter is my uncle, and we have a long-term cooperation with Golden Eagle Group,”

said the man, taking a seat next to Quella Radcliffe, and introducing himself with a smile.

“Quella Radcliffe, chairman of the Radcliffe Group.”

Dempsey Davenport also introduced Quella Radcliffe politely.

“It really seems to be fate. On my way here, I was thinking if I might meet a lovely lady friend at the banquet!”

Richard placed his briefcase on the table; his eyes gleaming with smiles as he looked at Quella Radcliffe.

“I returned from abroad just last year, and after establishing Fast Logistics, I briefly went overseas for further studies. A few days ago, I received a notification from my uncle and hurried back home. I have heard of the Radcliffe Group, the pacesetter in the electronics industry in Gonzalez City. I think there will be opportunities for us to collaborate in the future.”

While introducing himself, Richard made no attempt to hide the boasting in his tone.

At the same time, the look he gave Quella Radcliffe started to become rather unguarded.

“Golden Eagle Group can be considered a boss in Five-river Province.

Congratulations to you for having such a good uncle,”

Quella Radcliffe replied, her words tinged with a hint of sarcasm in response to such a character.

“While you say that, I only took a small sum of money from my uncle. Thanks to my years of study abroad and my extremely well-honed corporate management skills, I’ve built Fast Logistics into a behemoth in just a few years.

Did you know, most e-commerce, they all ship their goods through me!” Richard laughed, “Miss Radcliffe seems to have a bit of prejudice against me?”

“She doesn’t, I do.”

Unbeknownst to when he appeared, Julius Reed stood behind Richard..
