‘Who is that?”

Seeing the figure wielding a knife at the window, Lucan Davenport was somewhat puzzled.

Such precise technique clearly did not belong to an ordinary person.

Could it be that this building harbored hidden masters, other strong fighters?

However, given Julius Reed’s strength, having a few helpers by his side was normal.

“Red Widow, the one who almost took out Atlas Leopold before.”

Julius Reed replied indifferently.

Although she was no match for him, Red Widow’s capabilities were not to be underestimated.

“Is it that crazy woman who stormed the Leopold villa alone with a gun?”

Lucan Davenport raised an eyebrow and said, “She couldn’t possibly kill Atlas Leopold. I was in that villa at the time. Even though I wouldn’t help the Leopold Family now, back then, if Atlas had been in danger, I definitely would have intervened.”

As he spoke, his confidence returned.

On the day Red Widow attacked, he was on the second floor of the Leopold villa.

At that time, the Leopold Family had not yet asked for their help, and Lucan didn’t know that Julius had a grudge against the Leopold Family.

So he wouldn’t stand by and watch someone die.

“If she heard you say that, the two of you would probably end up fighting.” Julius Reed smiled faintly and did not deny Lucan’s words.

In terms of strength, Red Widow was indeed no match for Lucan, and there was a significant gap between them.

Even the Eastern Bay Warrior, who had just fled, had always hidden his true power.

He knew well that he was no match for the two, so he simply chose to escape. Experts usually do this—they aren’t foolish enough to embrace death.

“Ding! ”

Just then, Julius Reed’s phone suddenly rang.

“Big brother, Elize Yarrow is here, causing a scene downstairs with her friends!”

Miguel Abbott’s urgent voice came through the phone.

“Tell her to come out! Just say I’m pregnant! That bastard better not think he can hide!”

Before he could finish, Elize Yarrow’s sharp voice was heard. “Hey! Wait a minute, I really don’t know where Mr. Reed is!”

Miguel about was extremely helpless.

If it weren’t for his consideration of Julius Reed, Elize Yarrow? He would have had her thrown out long ago!

The Yarrow Family meant nothing to him, let alone a woman.

But so far, Julius Reed had not clarified the relationship between the two, which gave him a headache!

To drive her away or not?

After some thought, Miguel Abbott decided to ask for instructions.

“Alright, I’m coming down right away!”

Julius Reed frowned slightly, putting aside the fact that nothing had happened between them, even if it had, how could there be a pregnancy after just a few days?

Wasn’t this just nonsensical?

“Big brother, are you in trouble?”

Lucan Davenport, having slung his iron sword over his back, came over to inquire.

He was not ignorant of world affairs.

After learning about Julius Reed’s situation, Lucan had used the resources on his phone to find out information about him.

This investigation was worrisome—he discovered his own guide had offended all the influential figures of Five-river Province!

But on reflection, he understood. How could such a domineering and high-profile person not have enemies?

“Just a woman, but indeed a trouble!”

Julius Reed waved his long sleeves, “Come on, let’s go down and take a look!”

He’d protected Elize Yarrow before because he had used her to humiliate Atlas Leopold.

Thus, he couldn’t just watch her die.

Now that the Leopold Family was in trouble themselves, the entire Five-river Province, after decades of stability, was once again entering a state of chaos.

The Yarrow family, being such a small clan, naturally went unnoticed by most.

Therefore, Julius Reed had already stopped bothering with Elize Yarrow, having done all that was right and proper , without owing her anything.

Soon, the elevator arrived on the first floor.

Just as Julius stepped out of the elevator, he saw Miguel Abbott coming towards him.

“Mr. Reed, something’s not right. Elize Yarrow, against her usual behavior, is causing a ruckus nonstop. And there are several men around her who don’t look like good company.”

Miguel Abbott, being a prominent businessman, instantly recognized the underlying situation.

“Good!”

Julius nodded his head and instructed him, “If I’m not mistaken, she seems to have a good friend called Simeon Kensington. Help me look up the phone number for this Simeon Kensington and find out if she knows anything about Elize Yarrow’s situation.”

“Understood!”

With a wave of his hand, Miguel’s bodyguards immediately scattered to gather information.

“Miss Yarrow, what do you need me for?”

Julius strode over and greeted Elize Yarrow from a distance.

At the same time, he noticed the men around Elize Yarrow, who were watching him warily, radiating a murderous aura.

It wasn’t just the three men sitting by Elize Yarrow; taking into account others lurking in the restaurant, there were a total of seven!

“Scumbag, you dare to toy with me and then abandon me!”

But from beginning to end, she dared not take a step.

“Is there a matter? If you’ve come just to hurl insults, then I’m sorry, but I’ll have to show you out!”

Julius said, sitting nonchalantly in the chair across from her.

If anyone else witnessed this scene, they would surely think of him as a genuine scumbag.

It was clear that he was the type to pull up his pants and not recognize a person afterward, callously turning his back on them!

“What… can I possibly have to say to you! I’m just leaving and wanted to say goodbye before I go. Later, when the baby is born and looking for you, at least you’ll know he is your own flesh and blood!” Elize Yarrow’s tone carried a hint of sorrow.

It was evident that she was indeed sad.

“Mr. Reed, I’ve got through to Simeon Kensington! She says Elize Yarrow’s father sold his own daughter to Irving Harris!”

Miguel Abbott quietly whispered into Julius’s ear, detailing the situation.

“Irving…”

“Irving Harris is a notorious human trafficker in Five-river Province, infamous, but very powerful! If taken by him, it’s almost certain she will be sent abroad and might never return.”

Seeing Julius’s lack of understanding, Miguel hurriedly explained.

Julius tapped his fingers on the tabletop, starting to think things through slowly.

It appeared that Elize Yarrow had come here seeking help from him.

Or perhaps, to say farewell?

The saying goes that even a tiger won’t eat its cubs, yet the Yarrow family members were heartless enough!

“The Yarrow family fears retribution from the Leopold Family and decided to hand over Elize Yarrow to Irving Harris, hoping to sever ties with their own daughter.”

Miguel relayed all the information he had obtained.

“Don’t look so wronged. If you don’t want to go, then don’t. There are so many rooms here, why not just stay?”

After knowing the full story, Julius slammed the table and pointed at Elize

Yarrow, “Stay and focus on your pregnancy!”

His words made the men accompanying her restless.

Previously, having pleaded bitterly and offering several hundred thousand of her own savings to them, Elize Yarrow secured an opportunity to meet with the father of her unborn child.

But now, someone was actually stopping Elize Yarrow from leaving?

“No need, take good care of yourself!”

A glimmer of surprise, followed by disappointment and helplessness, flashed in Elize Yarrow’s eyes.

Irving Harris was too formidable; she didn’t want to cause any trouble for Julius.

“I said stay, so stay! What’s with the dithering? Julius waved his hand: “Go, take her upstairs!”
