Heartthrob Julius Reed-Chapter 707 Celebrating the Birthday of the Dead_1
Until he entered the Five-lakes Clubhouse.
Brayden Leopold still hadnโt recovered from the shock. ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฐ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ฒ๐ฅ.๐๐๐
He couldnโt figure it out!
How could these two people, with such a deep-seated hatred for each other, come together...
Could it be...
Whoosh!
Brayden Leopold didnโt dare to think any further!
It was too terrifying!
He grabbed the black dog beside him and asked fiercely, "Did you betray me?"
"Black Dog has never dared to betray the young master!"
Black Dog looked straight into Brayden Leopoldโs eyes, "As long as it helps the young master take the position of Family Head, Black Dog will not hesitate even if it costs him his life!"
"Good!"
Brayden Leopold laughed wildly, "Once I become the Family Head, I will give you endless wealth and glory!"
"Thank you, young master!"
Black Dog was sweating profusely.
Legs.
Already trembling uncontrollably.
...
"From Five-river Province, the President of Hernandez Group, River Hernandez, delivers a Cassius Dynasty white jade cup!"
"From East Sea City, the President of Willowbrook Group, Dessrert Will, presents a genuine work of Tang Yin!"
"From Gonzalez City, the owner of Stone Dairy, Slade Stone, presents a set of Leopold Dynasty Jingdezhen porcelain!"
...
Fabian Percival sat in the most central position of the Five-lakes Clubhouse.
Smiling at the stream of people continually offering birthday greetings at the entrance.
Next to him, Roosevelt Chide was in his suit and leather shoes, also smiling broadly.
The Roosevelt family name was a trademark!
Just by sitting there, after everyone had wished Fabian Percival happy birthday, they all had to greet Chopter.
And this scion of the Roosevelt family simply smiled slightly, not saying a word.
"From Five-river Province, the Leopold Group, Whitley Leopold! Gifts Green Mount Villa worth eight hundred million!"
When Whitley Leopold walked in, everyone fell silent.
This was the Boss of Five-river Province!
And with a single gift, it was eight hundred million!
Under everyoneโs gaze, Whitley Leopold walked in slowly.
"Congratulations, Mr. Thorneycroft!"
He held his fists with both hands, walked up to Fabian Percival, and bowed deeply!
Even though, he was older than Fabian Percival!
Even though, the Leopold Family was already the Boss of Five-river Province!
Even if!
He was the Family Head of the Leopold Family!
Yet before this former overlord, Whitley Leopold had to bow.
Moreover.
Sitting next to Fabian Percival was a member of the Roosevelt family!
A major North American financial conglomerate!
Who would dare to offend?
"Old Mr. Leopold, you are too courteous!"
Mr. Thorneycroft stood up, took Whitley Leopoldโs hand with a smile, "The old gentleman has taken the trouble to come and celebrate my birthday, it overwhelms me!"
Overwhelms?
Whitley Leopold sneered inwardly.
Back then!
He had knelt at the entrance of Fabian Percivalโs house in Gonzalez City!
A day and a night!
In the wind and heavy snow!
Until someone pleaded on his behalf, Fabian Percival finally forgave the Leopold Familyโs previous misconduct.
And the so-called misconduct!
It was merely that when Fabian Percivalโs car was traveling on the road, it was overtaken by a young member of the Leopold family driving a sports car.
It goes to show.
Just how domineering Fabian Percival was back in the day!
"To attend Mr. Thorneycroftโs birthday banquet is my honor," said Whitley Leopold with feigned excitement on his face, "Iโve waited anxiously, and finally, you have returned! But, why is Miss Thorneycroft not seen?"
It was well-known that Fabian Percival came back with his daughter.
Even though she was adopted, she was still his only daughter.
Naturally, Whitley Leopold prepared a gift to give to her as well.
"Vito... has caught a slight cold and cannot come to meet everyone," said Mr. Thorneycroft, a look of sorrow appearing on his face.
"The young lady will surely be blessed with a long life and be well," declared Whitley Leopold. Extending his hand, someone immediately passed him a gift box.
"Inside here is a fine piece of white jade, a small token for Miss Thorneycroft."
"You are kind."
Mr. Thorneycroft took the gift box and handed it to the bodyguard behind him.
"From Five-river Province, Three Blade Group, Maurice Yarrow! Presents a limousine worth eighty million!"
"Mr. Thorneycroft!"
As the call rose, Maurice Yarrow approached, smiling and engaging in pleasantries, "Old Mr. Leopold is wealthy and sent you a house directly. Iโm not as rich as the Leopold Family, so Iโm giving you a car, which should be more convenient for getting around."
"Youโre too kind!"
A hint of joy flashed across Fabian Percivalโs face.
He wasnโt short on money.
Backed by the Roosevelt family, why would he worry about money?
What he wanted was this scene!
He wanted all of Five-river Province to see!
I, Fabian Percival!
Have returned!
"If Mr. Thorneycroft makes a visit, you must come to my Three Blade Group. That way, I can show you some hospitality!" Maurice Yarrow excitedly looked at Fabian Percival, "Iโve really missed you over the years!"
"Definitely! Definitely!"
Fabian Percival nodded in approval, gesturing for them to sit down.
The shouts outside continued, all from various bosses coming to pay their respects on his birthday.
After these people placed their gifts, Fabian Percival merely smiled briefly and gestured for everyone to take a seat.
Enjoying the flattery of countless people, he felt exceptionally content!
All the gloominess from before was swept away!
"From Five-river Province, Irving Harris! Presenting a white jade dragon sculpture!"
After the call,
Irving Harris, seated in a wheelchair, slowly moved towards Fabian Percival.
At the sight of Irving Harris, Brayden Leopoldโs heart surged with excitement again!
This Vann Harris had an irreconcilable vendetta with Julius Reed!
Why would the two of them come in the same car?
"I wish Mr. Thorneycroft longevity beyond measure!"
Irving Harris clasped his fists and smiled faintly.
"Brother Harris, your presence here also honors me greatly, and I will remember it," Fabian Percival courteously said.
He didnโt have much interaction with Irving Harris, as their peaks in power had not coincided.
"Hmm."
Irving Harris nodded coldly and wheeled himself next to Whitley Leopold.
"From the Capital, Ivan Reed! Presenting cash, ten billion!"
Just then, another call instantly drew everyoneโs attention.
"Ivan Reed? How did he get here?"
"Didnโt Sacha Reed just capture our Miss Thorneycroft a few days ago? Whatโs the meaning of this?"
"Could it be... a weasel paying a New Yearโs visit to a chicken?"
The discord between Ivan Reed and Fabian Percival was common knowledge!
But now, what did his gesture of coming to celebrate mean?
At the entrance, Ivan Reed hurried in with Marco Pendleton.
"Brother Fabian, Iโve long admired you!"
In terms of fame, he definitely overpowered Fabian Percival!
Being able to call him Brother Fabian was already showing great respect.
"Master Reed! Your presence truly graces my humble abode!"
Although Fabian Percival had doubts, since they had already arrived, he wasnโt afraid!
With bosses from all over present today, no one dared to make a rash move!
The security at his Five-lakes Clubhouse had long been arranged with a group of staff.
Fox Miller personally led the team to guard Fabian Percivalโs safety.
The moment Marco Pendleton appeared, his gaze briefly clashed with Fabian Percivalโs!
Hatred!
Endless hatred!
The four disciples, including Jaxston, died right here in the Five-lakes Clubhouse!
And Fabian Percivalโs employee, Rocco Leocadia, was directly slain at the hands of Marco Pendleton!
The blood feud between the two parties was profound!
But at this moment, nobody would bring it up.
"From Five-river Province... Five-river Province..."
The call at the entrance suddenly stammered.
"Whatโs the matter! Bad luck!"
One boss said unhappily.
"From Five-river Province, Miguel Abbott, Stanislaus Potter, each gifting Mr. Thorneycroft a bottle of Moutai!"
When the call was finished,
There was dead silence in the Five-lakes Clubhouse.
"Isnโt Octavius dead? Didnโt Stanislaus Potter die with him? Whatโs going on?"
"It must be a mistake! So ominous to call out the names of the dead!"
"Iโll go replace them immediately!"
Just as someone was about to stand up, they froze in place.
They saw Octavius and Stanislaus Potter, each holding a bottle of Moutai, alive and well in front of everyone.
Click!
The cup in Whitley Leopoldโs hand fell to the floor.
It shattered.
