Chapter 271: Chapter 270 Did you see that?_1
“Atlas Leopold, who is that! Even in the Five-river Province, if you dare to offend our Calvin, even Augustus would have to kneel and apologize!”
Isandro Jackson is an overseas Chinese who often lives abroad, so he doesn’t know about the situation in the Five-river Province.
Joel Martin always likes to boast to his friends and classmates, which has left the impression on everyone that he is omnipotent in the Five-river Province.
So when Julius Reed mentioned that Elize Yarrow is Atlas Leopold’s fiancée, Isandro Jackson couldn’t care less.
Could Atlas possibly be more formidable than Joel Martin?
But as soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone at the dining table changed.
Especially Joel Martin.
Atlas Leopold is the direct heir of the Leopold Family, the foremost of the four young masters of the Five-river Province.
And him, he couldn’t even compare to Quamaine Potter, the unanimously recognized dud among the four young masters.
In the end, he’s just a nephew of the Potter Family, not a direct heir at all.
“Stop talking!”
But to save face, Joel Martin could only tug at Isandro’s arm, hoping he would say less.
However, in Isandro’s eyes, this gesture only seemed like Joel was feigning modesty.
She stood up again, walked over to Elize Yarrow, and fiercely slapped her!
Slap!
In an instant, the humiliation felt from being slapped earlier dissipated.
In its place was a sense of superiority.
Clearly, Elize had not expected Isandro to dare to slap her and was stunned on the spot.
Julius Reed was also stunned. This really was a case of not knowing whether to live or die!
To hit the fiancée of Atlas… Of course, she was no longer that now, but nominally Elize was still considered to be.
To dare to strike the fiancée of Atlas, one would either have to be ignorant or fearless.
Obviously, Isandro belonged to the latter.
“Call that what’s-his-name, Atlas Leopold, to come and apologize to our Calvin!”
She stood with her hands on her hips, proudly saying, “If Atlas Leopold doesn’t come to apologize in person within half an hour, then don’t leave this place!”
Listenting to Joel bragging about how powerful he was almost every day, Isandro naturally believed him without a doubt.
Moreover, getting two BMW 7 series as their dedicated cars right after getting off the plane further strengthened Isandro’s belief in Joel’s omnipotence.
“Isandro, you come back here!”
Joel felt a burning sensation on his face and was at a loss for a moment.
If he really had Atlas come over, wouldn’t that be tantamount to seeking death?
It might end up requiring Stanislaus Potter to intervene before the situation could be resolved.
But if he admitted he was inferior to Atlas Leopold?
That would cause his standing in the eyes of people like Anna Harris and Isandro to plummet. Upon returning, the story would certainly spread, and he would surely be labeled a braggart.
“What? Young Master Martin is that afraid of Atlas Leopold?”
Julius Reed asked languidly.
“Haha, what are you talking about!”
Joel Martin’s eyes shifty, he countered, “Brother Reed and Young Master Leopold’s fiancée seem so intimate, aren’t you afraid that it might lead to some gossip? I don’t think Miss Yarrow would want to disturb Young Master Leopold, would she?”
He’d already conceived a plan to bring Julius Reed to his downfall by getting involved with Atlas’s wife.
But for just this offense, the Leopold Family wouldn’t let him off.
Meanwhile, Anna Harris was surprised; she hadn’t expected Julius Reed to be so bold as to dare to get involved with Atlas Leopold’s fiancée!
This was audacity to the extreme!
If the Leopold Family found out about this, there was a very good chance it would bring trouble to Quella Radcliffe.
What she didn’t expect was for Julius Reed to act as if nothing was wrong, saying cheerfully, “Elize Yarrow, it’s not like you to take a beating without fighting back! I’ll call for help; feel free to hit back.”
After finishing his words, he took out his phone and made a call, “Tell the Leopold Family that Atlas Leopold’s fiancée has been hit at the Water Pearl.”
“I don’t believe you’d actually dare to call the Leopold Family!”
Joel Martin looked at Julius Reed, his face brimming with scoffing.
Even Atlas Leopold dared to be cuckolded, when the time came, Julius Reed and Elize Yarrow wouldn’t be able to escape!
The extent to which the major families cared about face far exceeded that of ordinary people.
“Then just you wait and see!”
Julius Reed shrugged slightly, his face filled with an unconcerned expression.
Slap!
On the other side, Elize Yarrow reacted, charging over and delivering a slap!
“You filthy bitch, even daring to hit your auntie!”
Not satisfied with just a slap, Elize Yarrow pushed Isandro Jackson onto the ground, mounted her, and started to slap her fiercely!
The previously triumphant Isandro Jackson instantly became like a defeated rooster, completely unable to resist.
“Calvin, quick, help me… get this crazy woman off me!”
She tried to shield her face with her hands while she cried out to Joel Martin for help.
Joel Martin sat in his chair, not sure what to do for a moment.
He dared not lay a hand on Elize Yarrow. If the Leopold Family pursued the matter, he lacked the capital to bear the consequences.
But he couldn’t just watch Isandro Jackson being beaten either—wouldn’t that mean his face was lost?
“Tell them to stop now!”
Anna Harris was also looking anxious. It was supposed to be just a dinner, and she hadn’t expected a fight to break out.
Seeing the woman he fancied pleading, Joel Martin could no longer pretend to turn a deaf ear.
He had a stroke of inspiration and shouted toward the entrance, “Security, there’s a fight going on here!”
After that, he turned back to Julius Reed, “I don’t bully women, but if it were you, I would beat you until you knelt and begged for mercy!”
“Calvin… hurry… ah…”
Isandro Jackson was letting out screams from the floor, her face already bloody from Elize Yarrow’s onslaught.
“Old hag, even daring to hit me, today I will make sure you’re disfigured!”
The violent Elize Yarrow kept scratching Isandro Jackson’s face with her nails, completely disregarding her image.
“What’s going on!”
Following Joel Martin’s shout, a team of security guards quickly ran over.
“This woman was bullying my companion, and I can’t hit a woman, so hurry up and separate them!”
Once he saw the security guards, Joel Martin breathed a sigh of relief, his face finally saved.
“Who gave you the audacity to fight at Waterfront Pearl! If you want to fight, take it outside!”
The security team leader gestured, and the guards behind him immediately charged to separate the two women.
“Quick! Take this crazy bitch away! My face…”
Isandro Jackson saw them like a lifesaver, calling out frantically.
Facing Elize Yarrow, she didn’t even have the strength to resist.
“Where’s the fight? I didn’t see anything!”
Just as the security was about to intervene, Julius Reed slowly rose from his seat, he looked around and asked doubtfully, “Did anyone else see it?”
Julius Reed had been at Waterfront Pearl for a long time, often frequenting it with Miguel Abbott, and Miguel Abbott’s respect for Julius Reed was well known at Waterfront Pearl.
Seeing him, the security team leader immediately knew what was going on.
“Where’s the fighting! Stop causing a ruckus for no reason! You’re disturbing the peace of our hotel!”
With the security team leader’s shout, the other guards quickly caught on, as they were shrewd people, and promptly pretended to see nothing.
“What are you playing at! She’s already beaten up like this!”
Joel Martin stood up with a “whoosh” from his chair, pointing at the two tangled figures, “Are you blind! Look at the state of her! If someone ends up dead, can you bear the responsibility?”
The security team leader subconsciously looked toward Julius Reed but found him not paying attention, so he completely ignored Joel Martin, turning to leave with the security guards.
