especially aggrieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, the camera lens was like a girlfriend, always carefully cherished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, seeing his beloved equipment smashed, the photographer’s mood was extremely sour!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to restrain themselves, but as their eyes swept over the shattered lens, they found it impossible to hold back!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only were they not being compensated for their loss, but they were also being asked to pay a hundred thousand each?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could they pay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They weren’t going to play along anymore!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three approached Thomas Pendleton, faces flushed with anger, “Thomas, we’re not muddling through this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compensate us for the equipment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Thomas Pendleton who had instigated the situation, and coupled with what the three had said earlier, they had no way to seek compensation from Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had openly stated the equipment belonged to someone else and even mentioned receiving a hundred thousand from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning the tables now was unrealistic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only possible target for compensation was Thomas Pendleton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Pendleton’s face flickered between expressions, cursing inwardly non-stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… just wait a moment!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke softly, but everyone in the grand hall had already understood what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thomas, we’re out of this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pay up for the equipment first!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three spoke irritably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the equipment, what would they rely on to make money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the lens was worth over a hundred thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they didn’t seek compensation from Thomas Pendleton now and he later denied owing them anything, wouldn’t they be at a complete loss?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fine!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Pendleton, utterly frustrated, pulled out a bank card and violently threw it at one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s three hundred thousand inside, the pin is six eights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take it and scram!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t let me see you guys again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remember, in Gonzalez City, don’t expect to do any business in the future!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to argue, but seeing Otis Radcliffe’s somewhat pale face, he knew continuing the dispute would be detrimental to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to settle things peacefully with money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But inwardly, he couldn’t swallow his anger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three picked up the card from the ground and turned to walk towards the ATM in the lobby of Five-state International.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming the money was there, they quickly left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat eerie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall had been full of wealthy businessmen intent on forcing a change in leadership, but now they had witnessed a dramatic scene first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Pendleton’s face was red up to his ears, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone coughed softly, trying to shift the topic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now that both the Chairman and General Manager are here, let’s discuss the change in leadership.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Miss Huntington is still fond of her position, then we might have to withdraw from the alliance and reorganize independently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It might be even more embarrassing for you then…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When you first took office, you did so with great fanfare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll make sure you step down with some dignity, how about that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had already changed how they addressed her, no longer calling her Chairman Huntington but simply Miss Huntington.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hold on!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Itai Huntington was about to speak, Julius Reed arrived in front of Thomas Pendleton, followed by others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Before we deal with official matters, I want to solve a personal issue.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying so, he looked up at his wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no Rolex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had given it away a few minutes ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry Moore quickly took a watch out of his pocket and put it on Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We still have some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the biggest economic entity in Gonzalez City, let’s meet in the conference room at nine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the time, which was fairly accurate, Julius Reed almost wished he could slap Terry Moore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buying a bunch of Rolexes, yet not a single one kept time accurately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were just for show!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vanity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, he stood in front of Thomas Pendleton, but his eyes were on Otis Radcliffe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother-in-law.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe began with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I hear that you and Thomas Pendleton are close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How about, for the sake of you calling me brother-in-law, I take it you did this, and I’ll forgive you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed wasn’t surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Otis Radcliffe hadn’t changed, he wouldn’t be where he was today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The harsh realities had long smoothed the sharp edges of the once profligate young man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smooth, yet filled with scheming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ɲονɢᴑ.сο\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the face of absolute power, any conspiracy or trick seemed feeble and powerless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were not for The North Sea standing behind Otis Radcliffe, Julius Reed would have countless ways to make him disappear from his presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, The North Sea pushed Otis Radcliffe to the forefront, clearly not to deal with himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of person is not worthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, The North Sea pushed Otis Radcliffe out to control the economy of Gonzalez City and to establish connections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were searching for the things they wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, Thunderpeak Hall sent out financial groups time and again to discuss cooperation with Itai Huntington, aiming for the same purpose!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What they wanted was not just the Divine Dragon Tripod…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Julius Reed’s questioning, Otis Radcliffe still wore a smile, “Sure, Thomas Pendleton and I were indeed friends, but not anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And since he troubled my brother-in-law, by all rights, he should also be my enemy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, he walked up to Thomas Pendleton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slap was delivered without any warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Pendleton was initially stunned, then quickly bowed to admit his mistake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was to protect himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Julius Reed had slapped him like that, it probably wouldn’t be so simple now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thomas Pendleton, I once considered you a friend, and we did share some camaraderie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But you schemed against my brother-in-law, do you still consider me your friend?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe said expressionlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This slap was hard, and Thomas Pendleton’s corner of the mouth was already bleeding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But compared to the pain Otis Radcliffe endured when Julius Reed had broken his legs,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>this injury was really nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a tickle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President Radcliffe, it was my moment of folly…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Pendleton knelt on the ground, harshly slapping himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please, I beg you to dismiss the fool’s past mistakes, spare me this once.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Get up, my brother-in-law isn’t so petty, and I’ve already hit you, so we’ll call it even.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe adjusted his sleeve cuffs, speaking indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He intended to shut Julius Reed up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>See how his brother-in-law could open his mouth to blame others now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Otis Radcliffe, when have I ever been magnanimous?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed stepped forward, smiling as he looked towards Otis Radcliffe, “I’m quite vindictive, and I take revenge immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, I wouldn’t have broken your legs back then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mentioning this, Otis Radcliffe’s face darkened, and his mouth twitched continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Times had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was now a star entrepreneur of Gonzalez City, a successful person!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, such an incident was being dug up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet soon, Otis Radcliffe managed to compose himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even though your friend betrayed me, you at least called me ‘brother-in-law,’ I need to give you face.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed stood with his hands behind his back, appraising Thomas Pendleton, “Let’s ask for my younger brother’s opinion.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, he looked towards Terry Moore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That slap he just hit you appeared like a show.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry Moore stepped out from behind Julius Reed, took off the Rolex on his wrist, and dangled it in front of Thomas Pendleton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know what this is?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A Rolex!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thomas Pendleton stared with wide eyes, inspecting the watch closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just a different watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wrong!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry Moore shook his head, suddenly letting go!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rolex fell instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Thomas Pendleton’s eyes followed it intently, dropping as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terry Moore threw a punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Directly knocking Thomas Pendleton three meters away!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is joy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bent down, picked up the Rolex, and put it back on his wrist, “The joy of the rich.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1346,"2026-06-06T17:05:15.459Z",1,"novelbin.me","0a874673cee09dee3d1cae8a2cb069eb6c9c5f470ddd5d22f8608c5a3524e02a","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1012","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1010",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
