Chapter 456: Jennifer Lopez’s Invitation_1
“Julius Reed!”
After a brief silence, a roar came through the phone, “I warn you! Do not test my patience!”
Jennifer Lopez came from a great clan and had a high prestige and position within her family, deeply loved by the Family Head.
In Gonzalez City, the Lopez Family also had great face.
Although not on par with the four major families, when it came to influence, the Lopez Family could absolutely be considered a first-tier family.
Many young masters of Gonzalez City had to give Jennifer Lopez this face.
Ever since Zane Percival turned eighteen and became an adult, Jennifer Lopez had been intentionally and unintentionally taking him around Gonzalez City, making use of her own connections to let Zane Percival mingle with young nobles of the city, paving the way for her son to eventually return to the family in the capital.
But now, this nearly completed road was hanging by a thread.
The Lopez Family would absolutely not allow a person with a blemish to enter the family to fight for the heir position or to take control of the family enterprise.
The people of the Lopez Family must be perfect!
When she learned that Zane Percival’s teeth had been knocked out, and he was groveling like a dog begging for mercy, her heart went crazy!
Crazy with fury!
“Miss Lopez, what do you mean by this?”
Julius Reed said with an unfriendly tone, “You were the one who sought me out, not the other way around!”
I was just casually strolling, killing some people.
Then this woman calls me up, and has the nerve to threaten me.
“I want to meet you.”
Jennifer Lopez’s tone became cold again.
“Why should I meet you? Unless you’ve come to your senses and are willing to accompany me? That, I would have to consider. How about this, go to the hospital and get a medical report. I’m worried about catching diseases.”
Julius Reed spoke very seriously, “Oh right, I need my brother to try you out first, help me check the merchandise. If everything is fine, once you’ve satisfied me, the video will naturally be yours.”
Aron Jackson was already sweating bullets on the side.
His big brother was really ruthless!
Jennifer Lopez!
A well-known lady of Gonzalez City!
The Lopez Family heiress!
A woman that many feared, yet in his big brother’s mouth, she was as simple as calling a hooker!
“Julius Reed!”
Jennifer Lopez couldn’t contain her rage anymore, gritting her teeth she said, “You better get back to Gonzalez City before I lose my temper! I’ll be waiting for you at the Flower Building. If you do not come, then I will take all necessary measures!”
As if worried Julius Reed wouldn’t believe her, she said slowly, “I know your wife is currently at Bran Cook’s private club, some matters can certainly be discussed nicely, after all, no one wants to bring out knives and guns, right?”
“Are you threatening me?”
Julius Reed asked with a sneer.
He was somewhat surprised that Jennifer Lopez had rushed to Gonzalez City overnight.
It seemed Zane Percival was really too important to Jennifer Lopez!
Then the video in his hands couldn’t be handed over lightly.
“Not at all. I just want to have a calm and peaceful talk with you. But if you get greedy, I might just let you know the full extent of the Lopez family members’ ferocity!”
Jennifer Lopez had a commanding tone in her voice.
If it had not been a last resort, she would not have wanted to start a conflict with Julius Reed.
As long as she first safely and smoothly retrieved the video, how she would deal with him afterward would depend on her mood.
She had already obtained and completely erased the video from the shooting range through her connections.
The only video left was the one in Julius Reed’s hands.
Also, the clearest and the most impactful one.
If the Lopez family members got their hands on this video, there would be no chance for Zane Percival to get his hands on the Lopez Family’s assets!
Even Jennifer Lopez herself would be implicated!
“I’m still with the same question, how are you going to satisfy me?”
Julius Reed seemed oblivious to Jennifer Lopez’s anger, still speaking unhurriedly.
“My patience is limited, and so is my time. If you insist on challenging my bottom line, then we shall see. But I can assure you, you will definitely regret it!”
Jennifer Lopez said coldly.
“Then I’ll give you a chance, the Flower Building, right? See you there in a bit.”
After Julius Reed hung up the phone, he looked at Aron Jackson, “I plan to make a trip to the Flower Building, you take care of your sister-in-law for me.”
If Jennifer Lopez could come to Gonzalez City silently and even get his phone number, it indicated that this woman’s capabilities were extraordinary.
Rather than being strung along like this, it would be better to deal with the trouble in person.
“Big brother, I don’t recommend you go. Jennifer Lopez is ruthless and has many skilled people by her side, it’s too unsafe!”
Worry covered Aron Jackson’s face.
He had heard of this woman’s fearsomeness and had always tried to avoid a direct confrontation with her.
Now that his own big brother was about to meet this woman alone, and they shared a hatred that could not be resolved under the same sky, how could Aron Jackson be at ease?
Jennifer Lopez was notoriously protective over her charges.
“It’s okay, if I can’t handle even this woman, then I should be calling you big brother.”
Julius Reed patted Aron Jackson on the shoulder, signaling him not to worry.
Even the fearsome Three-Armed Underworld King had his arm severed just ten minutes ago.
What’s more, if it’s just an ordinary woman?
“Then I’ll send people to protect you!”
Aron Jackson said assertively, “If that woman dares to touch you, I’ll make sure none of them can walk out alive!”
In Gonzalez City, Aron Jackson could keep people if he wanted to.
Even the formidable Jennifer Lopez had to give Aron Jackson some leeway in Gonzalez City.
After all, this is not the capital!
“Just make sure your sister-in-law is safe, and don’t let me have trouble in my own backyard!”
After Julius Reed said this, he disappeared into the woods in an instant without waiting for Aron Jackson to argue again.
Gonzalez City.
The Flower Building.
This place is a high-end club.
Exclusively for the wealthy to enjoy tea and conduct business.
Unlike Twilight Mansion, visitors here generally have very unique tastes, and they don’t come for the food or drinks.
It’s simply about enjoying tea.
Here, tea culture is at the core.
Julius Reed was not someone who indulged in elegance; to him, even the most expensive teas were just herbs for soaking his feet.
If the taste wasn’t sweet enough, they were only fit for footbaths.
So when he arrived at the Flower Building and found out it was a tea house, he was hugely disappointed!
Drinking foot soak water?
That was out of the question!
“Sir, please show your membership card.”
As soon as he reached the entrance, Julius Reed was stopped by a staff member.
It seemed that just like Twilight Mansion and the shooting range, there was a threshold to cross to get in here.
“I’m here to see someone.”
Julius Reed said with his hands clasped behind his back.
“Sorry, who are you looking for? Which room? What’s the name?”
The staff member still showed no intention of letting him in.
Meanwhile, on the third floor, a woman wearing sunglasses and a trench coat was lounging in an armchair with her legs crossed.
Behind her stood a sturdy middle-aged man.
The man had a square face and was wearing a black vest, with his hands folded behind his back.
“Miss, the man has arrived. He’s alone, arguing with a staff member downstairs.”
After getting updates through his earpiece about the situation below, the man relayed the information to the woman.
“Is he really that reckless? I thought he was a smart man. It’s embarrassing that Zane Percival would let such a person beat him to find his teeth, it’s far too pathetic.”
The woman gently picked up her teacup and took a sip before she spoke indifferently, “Let him wait downstairs a bit longer.”
