After leaving Five-state International, Julius Reed drove Quella Radcliffe and Cosmo to the villa.

“Need any help?”

He glanced at Quella Radcliffe, who was deep in thought in the passenger seat.

Having encountered such a thorny issue right after taking office, Quella Radcliffe, such a young woman, must have been under immense pressure.

“It’s alright, I’ll try to handle it.”

Quella Radcliffe offered a faint smile, a stubborn defiance shining through it.

“If you need help, just give me a shout. I still have quite a few acquaintances in the capital; don’t forget, your husband is from a wealthy family.”

Julius Reed smiled back but said no more.

He knew Quella Radcliffe’s character all too well—strong and stubborn.

If he really offered to help, it would surely be a blow to her!

She wanted to earn respect through her own efforts, not charity.

As the car travelled on a deserted road, Julius Reed suddenly furrowed his brows.

Behind him, a car was closely following them.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

And it seemed to be driven by a professional, maintaining a distance that would have gone unnoticed if not for Julius Reed’s sharp senses.

Cosmo also noticed the vehicle tailing them.

“Master, should I get out?”

She asked aloud.

“Get out? What for?” Quella Radcliffe was oblivious to the pursuit and thus somewhat bewildered.

It was pitch-dark; there wasn’t even a streetlamp, making getting out quite dangerous.

Five-state International Plaza was located in the New District, an area waiting to be developed.

Apart from the wasteland, there was just one lonely building around.

Consequently, the road was overgrown with weeds, and streetlamps hadn’t even been installed.

Ten years ago, this place was just a small village.

It was only deserted after the demolition.

“Take my wife home first. I just got a call; a friend is right behind us.”

Julius Reed glanced at the car behind through the rearview mirror and turned to Quella Radcliffe, entrusting her, “Honey, it’s a friend from the capital I haven’t seen in a while. I might be back late.”

“A friend from the capital? Really?”

Quella Radcliffe was somewhat skeptical.

But ever since Julius Reed had changed so much, he indeed had made many new friends.

People like Aron Jackson who held sway over territories and relatives high up in Titan Group like Sky Reed.

So it wasn’t strange to say he had friends from the capital.

“You’re not going to have an affair with Itai Huntington, are you?”

She suddenly asked with a serious face.

Julius Reed’s grip on the steering wheel jerked, nearly crashing the car into a tree by the road.

“Wife. Am I that kind of person?”

He was too innocent!

How could his own wife think so poorly of him?

“Hmph! Who knows!”

Quella Radcliffe snorted softly, then burst into laughter, “Just teasing you. Look at you, guilty as a thief.”

“You… fine, let it be! I’m innocent, with such a beautiful wife, why would I pine for a widow!”

Julius Reed spoke righteously.

“Are you sure your friend is behind us? It’s dangerous at night; maybe you should wait in the car?”

Quella Radcliffe clasped Julius Reed’s hand.

This gesture made Julius Reed’s body shiver, and then his heart surged with elation.

“Thanks for caring, wife! Actually, he called me while we were at Five-state International Plaza, saying he would find me there. Who knew, just as we left, he arrived. He then sent me a voice message, telling me he was following right behind.”

Julius Reed patiently wove a lie.

Their speed also began to slow down.

“How come I didn’t hear it?”

Quella Radcliffe remained doubtful.

The three of them had been chatting ever since they got in the car and hadn’t received any phone calls.

“Bluetooth headset! Taking calls while driving is a fineable offense!”

Julius Reed pointed at his left ear.

The car’s interior was very dim, and being on the side closer to the outside, Quella Radcliffe couldn’t see clearly.

“Don’t worry, honey! An old friend I haven’t seen for years, like this, you watch me get in the car, okay?”

Julius Reed chuckled and slowly pulled over to the roadside.

At the same time, he opened the door and walked to the side of the road.

Cosmo also got out from the back seat and moved to the driver’s position.

She wasn’t worried about her master’s capability at all.

A few petty thieves could be taken down with just a flick of a finger.

Soon, a beam of light appeared on the road.

The other party clearly hadn’t expected Julius Reed and his companions to stop suddenly, and had to brake urgently.

“Hey, brother!”

Seeing the black SUV stop, Julius Reed strode towards it, continuously calling out.

“Boss, have we been exposed?”

On the driver’s seat, a bald man asked.

“Who cares! We’re here to kill anyway; now that he’s stopped, it’s even better! There’s no one around, front or back. After the murder, we’ll stage a traffic accident, and no one will be able to trace it back to us!”

On the passenger seat, another bald man touched his head and a smile spread across his lips.

“Makes sense! Should we make a move now?”

The man in the driver’s seat asked.

“No rush! Let’s see what kind of game he’s playing first!”

The bald man rolled down the window and watched Julius Reed slowly approach.

At the same time, a dagger gleaming with a cold light appeared in his hand.

“Mr. Thorneycroft, why are you so late!”

Julius Reed walked up to the passenger side, laughing and swearing, “If you hadn’t come, I would’ve gone home to sleep with my wife!”

“Brother, you…”

The bald man stuck his head out the window, unable to understand what Julius Reed was up to.

He hadn’t made a move, so the other party definitely couldn’t know he was there to kill him!

If he had known, would he still come over so comically to court death?

Smack!

Julius Reed slapped the bald man’s head, laughing, “Mr. Thorneycroft, your head is just as hard as I remember after all these years!”

“Fuck! How dare you hit my boss!”

The man in the driver’s seat pretended to reach for a weapon but was grabbed by the bald man.

“Brother, you’ve got the wrong guy!”

His expression turned grim.

In all his years in the business, he’d never had someone dare to hit his bald head before!

This was an insult!

As if digging soil from the head of Taishang Laojun!

“Is that so!”

Julius Reed turned around to look around and then turned back to see the bald man, slapping his head hard again!

“Mr. Thorneycroft, I can see you now! Just now, someone who looked exactly like you said I got the wrong person.”

He scratched his head, laughing foolishly.

Inside the car, Cosmo and Quella Radcliffe watched the two men laughing and chatting, their actions so affectionate, and felt a lot more at ease.

“Mistress, he really is my master’s friend; are you relieved now?”

Cosmo looked towards Quella Radcliffe.

Without reassuring her mistress, she couldn’t leave the place.

“Hmm, but Julius Reed’s way of greeting is too rough!”

Quella Radcliffe frowned, watching Julius Reed slap the bald man’s head through the rearview mirror, shaking her head with a smile, “Let’s go!”

The car slowly started and instantly disappeared on the road.

Cosmo was an excellent driver, and on such deserted roads, few could catch up to her.

“Kid, are you fucking sick!”

The man in the driver’s seat couldn’t contain his emotions any longer and followed his boss in speaking, “This guy is an idiot!”

“I’m not Mr. Thorneycroft! I’m saying it for the last time!”

The bald man took a deep breath, quite angry now.

“I know, which is why I did it on purpose.”

Julius Reed shrugged his shoulders, revealing a smile.
