Translator: 549690339
Time flew to four in the afternoon.
Knox Ridge and her family sat on the sofa, their faces filled with anxious expressions.
The day was nearly over, yet the company hadn’t made a single phone call, and this made Knox Ridge restless.
“Julius Reed, you haven’t heard the last of this from me today!”
She picked up her phone and, after hesitating for a while, finally decided to call Zade Radcliffe.
As long as she could pin everything on Julius Reed, Knox Ridge felt that Quella Radcliffe could still return to the company.
“Thud! Thud!”
Just then, a series of knocks sounded at the door.
Julius Reed had been leaning by the door all afternoon, so the moment the Imocking began, he was the first to turn around and open the door.
“Where’s the chairman?
The first person he saw was Otis Radcliffe.
Behind him were several executives from Radcliffe Group, all of whom didn’t seem too pleased.
But that made sense; they were used to calling the shots and now had to come and apologize, which would sour anyone’s mood.
“Oh! It’s Otis Radcliffe, come in and take a seat!”
Seeing Otis Radcliffe, Knox Ridge quickly stood up.
She knew that Otis Radcliffe was Zade Radcliffe’s favorite grandson and also the General Manager of Radcliffe Group.
If she could humble herself in front of Otis Radcliffe, there might be a chance for Quella Radcliffe to return to the company.
“Aunt, I won’t sit down. Is Quella at home?”
Otis Radcliffe stood sideways, doing his best to hide the swollen side of his face.
“I’m asking you, where’s the chairman?”
Julius Reed blocked the doorway, coldly staring at Otis Radcliffe.
He had said before that if Zade Radcliffe didn’t come to request personally, Quella would definitely not return.
“What are you doing! Get out of my way!”
Seeing her son -in-law adding to the chaos, Knox Ridge instantly became furious.
Just when she was worried about finding a way out of the situation, Julius Reed had the audacity to block Otis Radcliffe at the door.
“Answer me! ”
Ignoring his mother-in-law’s rage, Julius Reed stared at Otis Radcliffe again with penetrating eyes.
“The chairman is very busy, so he asked me to come over.”
Otis Radcliffe suppressed the anger in his heart, trying to stay calm.
He had thought he could slap Julius Reed soundly, but instead, he got beaten up, and now he had to present his face for more.
“But don’t worry, I will definitely cooperate with Quella in the future, and no one will dare to trouble her again.”
Otis Radcliffe patted his chest, swearing solemnly, “I swear to heaven!”
Before coming here, Zade Radcliffe had made it clear that if he couldn’t get Quella to come back today, Otis would have to leave Radcliffe Group!
“Oh my! Look at what you’re saying! Aren’t we all part of the Radcliffe family?
Isn’t it good to look out for each other?”
Knox Ridge’s eyes sparkled when she heard what Otis Radcliffe said.
It seemed like he was here to invite Quella back?
At this thought, she gave Julius Reed a strange look. Could it be that her son-in-law really had such “Divine Skills” to make the normally arrogant Otis Radcliffe come to invite personally?
“Quella! Come over here!”
Knox Ridge quickly turned around to call for Quella Radcliffe, seeing a perfect opportunity.
You can’t miss such a chance to step down!
“Sit down!”
Just as Quella was about to stand up, Julius Reed said coldly, “Have you forgotten what I told you?”
With that, Quella sat back down.
Although Quella looked calm, her heart was already tumultuous.
She Imew exactly who Otis Radcliffe was: arrogant and scheming to oust her from the company.
Now that he was coming to invite her personally, it meant he had likely been pressured by Zade Radcliffe.
Because within the entire Radcliffe family, only Zade Radcliffe’s words would Otis heed.
“Oh! You two…
Knox Ridge was about to blow up, but Julius Reed interrupted her.
“I do as I say. If the chairman doesn’t have that sincerity, then please leave! Quella’s letter of resignation will be on the chairman’s desk tomorrow morning. ”
Julius Reed looked indifferently at Otis Radcliffe, completely ignorii other’s livid face.
“Julius Reed! Don’t go too far! Let me tell you, today…”
Bang!
Before Otis Radcliffe could finish his words, Julius Reed suddenly kicked out a foot in front of the Radcliffe Group’s executives!
“In half an hour, if the Chairman and all the staff of the group aren’t here, then get ready to receive Quella Radcliffe’s resignation letter!”
After saying this, he forcefully closed the door!
The executives of the Radcliffe Group outside were completely dumbfounded.
What’s going on here? Hadn’t General Manager Otis Radcliffe always wished for Quella Radcliffe to leave the company? Now that she was offering to resign of her own accord, why was he still bringing people over to retain her?
And Julius Reed’s attitude… why was it so assertive! Was this still the same useless son-in-law they knew before?
“What the hell are you looking at!”
Otis Radcliffe struggled to his feet in the stairwell, trembling with rage.
But eventually, he took out his cell phone and called Zade Radcliffe: “Grandpa, Julius Reed kicked me down the stairs. If you don’t bring all the employees of the group here within half an hour, he says Quella will resign immediately.”
“Good! Wait for me!”
After a brief response, Zade Radcliffe hung up.
But inside the room, Knox Ridge and Burl Radcliffe were cursing Julius Reed like madmen.
Zade Radcliffe was their father, and they knew very well what his temperament was like.
Although they did not know by what means Julius Reed had managed to get Otis Radcliffe to come and apologize, the idea of their father personally visiting was sheer fantasy!
Zade Radcliffe was decisive and authoritative in the group, there was no way he would do something so demeaning to his own dignity.
And besides, Julius Reed’s demand was to bring the entire staff of the group, which was outright impossible!
“You’ve completely blocked Quella Radcliffe’s return to the group! Get out! Get out of my sight now! I don’t ever want to see you again!”
Knox Ridge was so angry her teeth itched, but remembering how Julius Reed had just attacked, she dared not push too far.
After all, even a cornered rabbit will bite.
“You good-for-nothing, what kind of love potion has she given you!” Since she dared not strike Julius Reed, she turned around and began to scold Quella instead.
Her daughter had always been obedient to her, but these past two days, she had begun siding with Julius Reed and going against her!
“After four-thirty, I will take Quella and leave.”
Julius Reed looked up at Knox Ridge and said indifferently.
This family was toxic, and he had long wanted to leave. Now that Knox Ridge had brought it up, he could just ride the wave and leave this place.
As for the house, Aron Jackson had already bought it and had it fully furnished; they could move in with just their bags.
“Heh, I told you to get lost!”
Knox Ridge stood with her hands on her hips, sneering, “Where are you going to sleep? On the streets?”
She Imew very well that her son-in-law Julius Reed was penniless.
“I’m going with him.”
Quella Radcliffe sat on the sofa and spoke gravely.
“You…”
Knox Ridge was so furious she clenched her teeth, but before she could lose her temper, there came another knock on the door.
Half an hour had quietly slipped by in the midst of the quarrel.
“Is Quella at home?”
When the door opened, Zade Radcliffe stood smiling at the entrance.
“Dad! Why are you here?”
Knox Ridge trembled at the sight of the Chairman of the Radcliffe Group.
She thought Zade Radcliffe was there to settle scores.
“Since the Chairman has deigned to come, we might as well leave now.”
Julius Reed walked to the sofa, took Quella’s hand, and headed towards the door.
“Hey!”
Knox Ridge was about to shout, but Julius Reed cut her off, “I said, when the time comes, we will naturally leave.”
“Julius Reed!”
Zade Radcliffe’s face darkened. He had brought all the company’s employees, yet Julius Reed was insisting on taking Quella away. Was this playing him for a fool?
“Tomorrow, Quella will come to work.”
As he walked past Zade Radcliffe, Julius Reed stopped, his voice firm.
After finishing his statement, he took Quella’s hand and, under the gaze of the Radcliffe Group employees, strode into the elevator.
“Stop right there!”
Zade Radcliffe trembled with anger..
