“What’s all the fuss about!”

Seeing Anna Harris exploding in rage, Julius Reed was utterly bewildered.

It was just a few women, after all, he hadn’t done anything, heaven and earth could attest!

Moreover, Quella Radcliffe hadn’t said a thing, when did it become the business of a stranger to meddle in family affairs?

Isn’t this the hen crowing at dawn?

But this incident had infuriated Anna Harris. Having already a bad impression of Julius Reed, the thought of her best friend working hard to earn money, only for this pretty boy to squander it on fooling around with other women!

And at the Water Pearl, such an expensive hotel at that!

Even with two women at the same time!

She had been calling for a long time, but no one picked up on the other end.

“You just wait, this isn’t over!”

Anna Harris was so angry that her face turned red and her neck thickened, wishing she could get as far away from Julius Reed as possible. Yet thinking that if she left, he might just mess around even more, she endured her disgust and stood with Julius Reed.

Even more so, she planned to expose Julius Reed’s true colors later on, so those women could see the true face of this pretty boy’s actions.

Five minutes later, two white BMWs stopped in front of the Water Pearl, and Joel Martin and others got out one after another.

Without a thought, one could tell that these cars were sent by the Martin Family.

After greeting Joel Martin, the drivers quickly left the scene.

“Anna, sorry to have kept you waiting!”

As soon as Joel Martin got out of the car, he reverted to his previous arrogant demeanor.

“The drivers are my uncle’s men; I just made a call and they came over. It’s very convenient. You shouldn’t take a taxi anymore.”

He cast a glance at Julius Reed and asked with a smile, “Mr. Reed, we’ve always stayed in five-star hotels before, if you don’t book us a nice room, I’m afraid it will affect Anna’s rest.”

Now that everyone had arrived, the revenge could begin.

“I’m not as delicate as you are. Any place to stay is fine by me, and I have no issue with the room. Heather Gonzalez, you’re not picky, are you?”

Although Anna Harris was disgusted by Julius Reed, the money was, after all, Quella Radcliffe’s.

She had to bear with the nausea and make sure the money was well spent.

“Ah! I’m fine with anything, no problem!”

Heather Gonzalez nodded her head, feeling quite helpless.

It was supposed to be a leisure trip, and yet why was there tension everywhere?

“Alright! Since the two of us girls have no complaints, you guys shouldn’t be too precious either!”

Without giving Isandro Jackson and Joel Martin a chance to speak, Anna Harris pulled Heather Gonzalez’s hand, took the room card, and headed for the elevator.

“Hey…”

Isandro Jackson just opened his mouth to speak but was stopped by Joel Martin, “What’s the rush! Right now, Anna Harris wants to protect him, wait till we get to the room, then you can find fault!”

After all, they were convinced that Julius Reed had little money and naturally wouldn’t book them nice rooms. Once everyone checked into the hotel, they’d have the chance to embarrass Julius Reed in front of Anna Harris.

“Good!”

Isandro Jackson obediently followed Joel Martin’s plan, with the three other men quickly following behind.

No one spoke in the elevator, but it was crystal clear to everyone that this was the calm before the storm.

Ding!

When the elevator reached the sixteenth floor, the doors suddenly opened.

Then, a group of welcomers stood in front of the elevator doors, smiling at them.

“Welcome to the Water Pearl Hotel, please follow us!”

Anna Harris quickly counted, and there were roughly a dozen welcomers; quite a grand gesture.

In the past, they were usually led by a few individuals, but now suddenly so many people appeared, surprising everyone.

“Uh, you guys must be mistaken?”

Joel Martin stepped forward and said to the greeter, “We’re together, and the person you’re expecting is not us.”

Even when Joel Martin himself stayed at top-tier hotels, he never encountered such an entourage, and if anyone could command that level of prestige, Stanislaus Potter might be one.

Apart from Stanislaus Potter, it seemed no one else could match this standard.

“We’re just here to check in; we’ll handle it ourselves.”

Anna Harris’s face turned red as she explained, embarrassed.

Clearly, they had mistaken them for someone else.

When Anna thought about the fact that the rooms Julius had booked for them were just ordinary hotel rooms, she felt somewhat awkward facing such a welcoming lineup.

Conversely, Isandro Jackson’s eyes gleamed as he laughed out loud, “Anna, your friend sure is something, always crying poor around us. Look how prestigious he is!”

She finally had the chance to humiliate Julius Reed—how could she let it go?

“This lady is a friend of my wife, and these people are friends of my wife’s friend, you get it?”

Julius didn’t care about these things, and he gave instructions to the greeters, causing Isandro Jackson and Joel Martin to snicker to themselves.

They were internally eager to see Julius embarrassed when someone exposed him.

“I’ve got something else to take care of, make yourselves at home. Order whatever you want, and if you need me, just tell the staff, they’ll know how to find me.”

After Julius had arranged everything, he turned to Anna Harris, “Since you’re a friend of my wife, I’ll take good care of you!”

“Hmph! You’re leaving just like that?”

Isandro Jackson scoffed, “It’s really something, Mr. Reed, such a grand entrance you make! Even going up a floor requires a reception by more than a dozen greeters.”

“Right! Brother Reed, don’t leave yet! You can go after everyone has checked in.”

Joel Martin also moved in front of Julius Reed to stop him.

This was an opportunity he wouldn’t miss.

After all, he was just a man living off a woman, and the family he married into wasn’t even significant. What was he pretending for?

“Get lost! If it weren’t for Anna Harris’s sake, what do you think you are!”

Julius didn’t bother with him and simply pushed him aside before striding arrogantly into the elevator.

“You…”

Joel Martin choked with rage, stood up, and was about to rush into the elevator to have it out when the security behind him stopped him, “Sir, fighting is prohibited here! Please try to restrain yourself.”

Each floor of the Pearl on the Water was staffed with several security guards to ensure the safety of the guests.

“Calvin, let’s not stoop to the level of a barbarian! It’s obvious he has no class, just a poor man!”

Isandro Jackson quickly pulled Joel Martin back and hurled insults at Julius Reed, but Julius had already taken the elevator down and completely ignored them.

“Damn it! Just you wait!”

Joel Martin took a deep breath, starting to ponder how he would get revenge.

“Ladies and gentlemen, this way, please.”

a female greeter said with a smile, directing them.

“Let’s go and see! We’ll also check what sort of rat’s nest this kid got us into. I’ll pay to change all your rooms later!”

Joel Martin was seething with anger.

“Alright then! Let’s take a look first.”

Anna Harris didn’t know what to say to mediate the situation, torn between her friend and her best friend’s husband.

And Julius had indeed gone too far, pushing Joel Martin not just once, but twice.

But as they took only a few steps away, a greeter suddenly took out room keys and opened a door.

“Everyone, from here to there, the five rooms in a row are yours.”

“Wow!”

Isandro Jackson took one look and his eyes instantly widened in surprise.

“Haven’t you made a mistake!”
