A guy living off his wife, and you even dare to show up at Azure Percival?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly, have you even eaten out in the past three years? Let alone spending five million, you probably haven’t even spent five hundred bucks in these three years!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He really has the nerve to eat everywhere! This is not your house, you know!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quite a few members of the Radcliffe Clan began to mock him coldly and sarcastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To these people, Julius Reed was nothing but a loser.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he was Quella Radcliffe’s husband, he would not gain an ounce of respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The employees of Radcliffe Group also cast mocking glances at him, though they didn’t say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, even if he was a dog belonging to the Radcliffe Family, it wasn’t their place as outsiders to gossip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s best to just quietly enjoy the show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Julius, let it go. Let’s go to another place!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quella Radcliffe turned around, full of apologies, and said to the Radcliffe Clan and the employees, “I’m so sorry for today. It’s my first time here and I wasn’t aware of the rules. My apologies!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought Julius Reed was trying to extricate himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it required a spend of five million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A full five million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people were right, Julius Reed hadn’t eaten out in three years, where would he get a VIP card from?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a letdown!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s not even in charge yet and he’s already making fools of us, if he actually takes the position of project manager, I’m afraid it would be unbearable!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We came all this way only to get no meal! Let’s go home! Back home!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Radcliffe Clan members completely lost their cool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of them had known the ins and outs of the matter all along, so they acted with extra gusto.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President Radcliffe, if that’s the case, we’ll be taking our leave!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ve come all this way and haven’t had a meal, we need to go back and eat something!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we don’t find something to eat ourselves, we might starve to death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the instigation of the Radcliffe Clan members, the Radcliffe Group employees also began to complain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were not informed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many were jubilant about coming here and had even dressed up for the occasion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knew that they wouldn’t even see a table, or even get through the door!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This severe disparity intensified their dissatisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey! Wait a minute! Didn’t Julius Reed say he has a card? Let’s try it. What if our Radcliffe son-in-law really has the capability? After all, living off a woman is also a skill in getting food, isn’t it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe took the opportunity to sneer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seldom got the chance to make Julius Reed look foolish and was certainly not about to let it slip by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spending five million a year at Azure Percival was something even he couldn’t afford to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone penniless Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go to another place!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quella Radcliffe’s expression darkened and she turned to leave the hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the beginning to this point, she had also sensed that something was not quite right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if everything had been a well-designed trap, just waiting for her to fall into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe stood in front of Quella Radcliffe with a derisive tone, “You have a card, yet you won’t let him use it. Are you intentionally playing with us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe was particularly obsessed with kicking someone when they were down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quella Radcliffe was so angry she was red in the face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where would Julius Reed get such a card from? Otis Radcliffe’s actions were clearly intended to make them look bad!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it had been before, Quella Radcliffe might not have cared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now her feelings for Julius Reed had drastically changed, how could she let him be humiliated by others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just for that ‘brother-in-law’ you called me, I can’t let you down today!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed smiled faintly and pulled out a black card from his pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe always called him useless or trash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today was the first time he called him brother-in-law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also to humiliate him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Julius Reed pull out a card, everyone’s hearts tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that he really had a membership card?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then they thought about it, how could that be possible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They figured he was just brazenly showing some random card that couldn’t be used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed, oh Julius Reed, your status in our Radcliffe Family is not even as good as a dog that the old man keeps!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe sneered inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother-in-law, it’s not like you picked up some random business card on the street and are trying to bluff us, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Provoked by his comment, the others who were momentarily stunned also started to regain their senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn! I actually believed him for a second, thinking this loser could actually produce a card!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wellington Radcliffe cursed loudly on the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the Radcliffe siblings, Wellington had the worst manners, always calling Julius Reed trash whenever he opened his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop fucking pretending and get lost!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked up to the reception desk, cursing under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone only saw Julius Reed pull out a black card, but they didn’t see clearly what card it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Provoked by Otis Radcliffe and Wellington Radcliffe, everyone assumed it was just some business card off the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, their anger grew even more!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir, this is a bank card…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The front desk staff answered with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought the customer really had a card, but when he took it, he realized it wasn’t a VIP card at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a black bank card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fuck! Julius Reed, you and your wife are really something! Treating us like monkeys, playing us for fools!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Members of the Radcliffe Clan were hopping mad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You fucking idiot, are you trying to make a fool out of me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wellington walked up to Julius Reed, about to push him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes, Julius Reed was less than a dog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wellington, he’s your brother-in-law!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quella Radcliffe stepped in front of Julius Reed and scolded sternly, “Don’t go too far! He’s part of the Radcliffe family too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her defense like that, the employees of Radcliffe Group were not going to stand down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President Radcliffe, it’s one thing for you to play us, but why should he? Bringing a bank card to pose as a VIP card, do you think we’re idiots?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We will report to the chairman that this lack of respect for staff doesn’t qualify you to lead the new project.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several employees of Radcliffe Group started pulling out their phones, ready to call Zade Radcliffe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister, you’re the one in the wrong here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otis Radcliffe was already overjoyed inside, his goal finally achieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Quella had incurred the wrath of everyone, the position would surely be his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would take his time tormenting Quella, even get her fired from the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, Julius Reed, I really owe you one!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without him stirring things up, the employees wouldn’t have been so outraged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Julius Reed ignored all that and said to the front desk staff softly, “There are some things you’re not qualified to know. Now call your manager.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his words, the staff member indeed hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite how things looked, he guessed that the guy was someone without much clout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what if he really was a hidden big shot? He could be risking his job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The call hadn’t lasted a minute when a chubby man came running down from upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the Radcliffes were cursing and Quella was arguing with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chubby man became extremely serious as soon as he got the black card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Will this do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed tapped on the reception desk lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The significance of this card, no one understood better than him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look, he’s still putting on an act! Disgusting!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go! Haven’t even had our meal, and we’re already full of anger!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quite a few people were already preparing to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir, with this card, you may directly enter our most esteemed Emperor’s Hall!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chubby man respectfully returned the card to Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? Am I hearing this right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Radcliffe family member standing closest to him furrowed his brows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Server, arrange for someone to escort this gentleman to the top-floor Emperor’s Hall!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his hand, the chubby man turned around with a beaming smile and said, “My name’s Tobias Percival, the manager of this establishment. If you need anything, feel free to ask for me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This statement made the Radcliffes explode in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fuck! What’s going on?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A bank card can do the trick?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quella was also bewildered. She moved closer to Julius Reed and asked softly, “What’s happening?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sky Reed lent it to me last time, we’re relatives, you know!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed replied with a light smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh my! Emperor’s Hall! Incredible! Long live President Radcliffe!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is too extravagant!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The employees became excited again, gathering around Julius Reed, ready to follow him upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wellington, you deal with it yourself. The rest of you, follow me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed looked at Wellington Radcliffe with a face full of mockery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You loser, I swear I’m not a man if I don’t get back at you for this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After everyone left, Wellington stood shaking with rage at the entrance of the hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>",1591,"2026-06-06T17:04:44.710Z",1,"novelbin.me","6912abebc684426bb54b47efddf1c520621b54c11968f02f193ed6c10da83965","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-15","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-13",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
