Sorry to bother you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed put his hands together in a gesture of alarm and hurriedly got up to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others immediately made way, seemingly without wanting to cause trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as Julius Reed took a step to leave, he turned around and looked at one of them, “Hey! Why should we leave just because you say so?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he asked this, the man immediately frowned, “Because we’ve booked the place and aren’t allowing any other customers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him, the rest of the group came forward again, all with unfriendly expressions on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed called out to the restaurant owner, ignoring the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s up?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A middle-aged man ran over with a clear look of fear on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone would be scared in a room full of people like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much did they pay you to book this restaurant?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed looked at the owner, signaling him not to be nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They pay us ten thousand a day. What, you have a problem with that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the owner could answer, someone else replied first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten thousand? Fine! I’ll give twenty thousand, and I’ll book the restaurant!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed sat back down and gestured to Miguel Abbott to get the money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, Miguel Abbott took twenty thousand cash from the briefcase he carried and slapped it on the table, “Twenty thousand! Just withdrawn from the bank, good serial numbers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two brand-new stacks of cash sitting there were quite the display of a second-generation rich kid showing off wealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you mean by this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them stepped forward, ready to argue, “There’s a first-come, first-served order to things. This place was ours first; it’s not about who can pay more!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you deliberately looking for trouble?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, don’t overdo it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, they all rushed forward, each one of them looking ready to kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quiet!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader gestured with his hand, and the room fell silent at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young man, are you here to pick a fight?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A teenager who could casually take out twenty thousand and seemed to not care at all might well be a well-known local rich second-generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such people have complicated identities, and they didn’t want to offend them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they provoked the power behind the teenager, things would become even more complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed tapped his middle finger gently on the table, “I’m just trying to eat, and you insist on kicking me out. Isn’t that deliberately picking a fight with me? Since we’re talking about money, let me show you what it means to be rich!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he finished that sentence, Julius Reed slightly moved his head. Miguel Abbott immediately understood and handed a stack of US Dollar to the man in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See for yourself, is this real money or not?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man didn’t say a word. He grabbed the money and started counting it. Then, he nodded and said, “Alright, but what are you going to do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the astonished gaze of those around him, Miguel Abbott lit the stack of money on fire and then handed it over to Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, a cigar had found its way into Julius Reed’s mouth without anyone noticing, and he lightly drew on it from the burning US Dollar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See that? This is what being rich looks like!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After taking a deep drag on the cigar, Julius Reed blew a puff of smoke into the man’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How dare you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man slammed his fist hard on the table, shattering the wooden table of the Horse Meat Restaurant into pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such strength was beyond that of an ordinary man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh! Resorted to brute force, huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed raised an eyebrow and pressed the cigar against the man’s chest, “Show some respect to me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sizzle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The burning cigar pierced through the shirt, scorching the man’s flesh underneath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re courting death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man immediately swatted away the cigar and charged at Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed rose to his feet with a kick, toppling the man to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Attack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the situation take a turn for the worse, the leader, no longer caring for caution, led his men to rush forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh! Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After knocking down two men, Julius Reed got caught off guard and was captured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You little rabbit! Daring to touch me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man who got burnt walked over with a vicious look, raising his fist, ready to get revenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait! You better be sensible! If I don’t return, my family will definitely send someone to look for me. With my family background, finding out where I am will be a piece of cake!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed had already figured out their plans—they wanted to avoid making any waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he wasn’t wrong, this group was surely brewing some conspiracy and thus were being extremely cautious in their actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, upon hearing Julius Reed’s words, the leader stopped his man, “Don’t ruin the big plan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, sir!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Retreating unwillingly, the man also looked at Julius Reed with murderous intent in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The burn on his chest was throbbing with pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take them away and lock them up. I’ll go report to the boss!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the leader’s order, Julius Reed and Miguel Abbott were immediately taken away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The street was pitch black, the streetlights long out of service.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few hundred meters out, they were brought into a decrepit old building, ending up in the same room as Roosevelt Shaw and his people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The windows of this room had been sealed with steel bars, and there were a few people guarding the exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was obvious these weren’t just street thugs but organized Hidden Guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Godfather!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Abbott! How did you end up here too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Julius Reed and Miguel Abbott, Roosevelt Shaw and his family of three quickly ran over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shush!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miguel Abbott made a silencing gesture, indicating for them to keep quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Call your boss out to see me! Are you trying to die by locking up me here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed stood at the door, shouting loudly to the outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who wants to see me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a voice came from inside the stairwell.\u003C\u002Fp>",1277,"2026-06-06T17:04:44.710Z",1,"novelbin.me","2d03d0d5e4b57e1aa26e38ab90486f6106f0e68a30c67f4c231086ccf84463da","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-285","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-283",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
