Legend of Dragon Son-in-law - Chapter 561
Chapter 561: Chapter 561 Smashing the Place_1
“`
In the Leocadia Family, Sophia Leocadia, though a girl and just turned eighteen this year,
held a very high status.
Old Master Leocadia, before he fell ill, favored Sophia Leocadia the most.
And Sophia’s father held high prestige within the Oberon Group and was very capable.
Sophia’s mother hailed from the Sinclair Aristocracy.
Such relations made Sophia the most beloved member of the Leocadia Family.
Therefore, after the old master fell ill, many hoped to marry Sophia off.
Even if it were only an engagement, they wanted to settle the matter.
The reason being, without Sophia’s departure, it would be difficult for these people to make any major moves.
As one of the four largest families, the Leocadia Family’s way of thinking was very open.
Old Master Leocadia even directly trained Sophia as the heir to the Leocadia Family, a fact known to all within the Family.
Even Sophia’s brothers and sisters had to show her respect when they saw her, let alone Winona Leocadia, who came from a branch of the Family.
A slight mishap could lead to their complete ruin.
But Sophia had a mild temperament and never lost her temper, which somewhat reassured the Leocadia Family Members.
“Winona Leocadia, what are you doing?”
Sophia looked at the circle of security guards before her, her brows slightly furrowed.
In her heart, Julius Reed held a very high position.
If Winona Leocadia couldn’t provide a perfect explanation, she would not let the matter rest.
“To answer the young lady, these three individuals were not invited; they snuck into the crystal exhibition hall and attacked two guests on our invitation list. Naturally, I had to intervene,” Winona Leocadia declared with moral righteousness.
In his eyes, this was an opportunity to show his worth.
If he could leave a good impression on the Leocadia Family’s young princess, he would thrive within the Family.
“What are you standing around for? Catch these people and throw them out!”
Winona Leocadia cleared his throat and shouted loudly.
Slap!
As soon as he finished his sentence, Sophia slapped his face.
“Miss… why did you slap me?”
Winona Leocadia, holding his face and blinking innocently, looked at Sophia in disbelief.
He didn’t even understand what had happened before he was slapped.
Not just him, including Anna Harris and the surrounding security personnel, everyone was stunned.
“These three are my guests! And you have offended my guests,” declared Sophia, anger rarely seen on her face. “Winona Leocadia, do you think just because the old master has fallen ill, I, the young lady, am invisible to your eyes?”
“Miss, they…”
Winona Leocadia’s eyes widened in disbelief: “How is this possible! Look, all three of them are from Gonzalez City, and this young man is a rascal. How could they possibly be friends with you? With your distinguished status…”
“Shut your mouth!”
Slap!
Sophia backhanded him with another slap.
She was truly furious.
Her idol, her male god, labeled as a scoundrel?
In her eyes, Julius Reed was a hero without equal.
The battle at the docks had given Sophia an immense sense of security.
But now, someone called Julius Reed a scoundrel?
“As things stand, there’s no need for further discussion,”
Julius Reed, with a smile, glanced at Sophia: “This situation today is none of your concern. But as a friend, I ask you to leave with me.”
“No! You are my friend, and I can’t let you be wronged!”
Sophia insisted stubbornly.
There was a fierce determination in her eyes.
Whoever bullied Julius Reed, she was the first to oppose it.
Moreover, she felt Julius Reed was upset.
“Let’s go, there’s nothing more to say.”
Julius Reed smiled and patted Sophia’s head: “He just now insulted my wife, so he’s already a waste.”
“Stop! How dare you touch the young lady!”
Seeing Julius Reed touch Sophia’s hair, Winona Leocadia immediately shouted: “Protect the young lady!”
In all his years in the Leocadia Family, no man had ever been so presumptuous with Sophia!
The dignity of the Leocadia Family allowed no challenges!
“Winona Leocadia!”
Sophia clenched her fists tightly, her gaze on Winona Leocadia was murderous.
“`
“Miss, you must have been threatened or bewitched!”
Winona Leocadia was also taken aback to see Sophia Leocadia like this.
In all his years with the Leocadia family, it was the first time he had ever seen the young princess of the Leocadia family so angry.
“Let’s go!”
Julius Reed picked up Sophia Leocadia by the waist and headed straight for the exhibition hall exit.
“Protect Miss Sophia!”
Smack!
Before Winona Leocadia could finish shouting, Julius Reed slapped him across the face.
“In ten minutes, I’ll make you wish you were dead.”
After saying that, he strode away.
No one dared to act rashly.
Winona Leocadia is a branch of the Leocadia family, after all, and they had no backing whatsoever.
If they truly offended Sophia Leocadia, there would be only one way out: death.
“You all just wait for me!”
Inside the crystal exhibition hall, Winona Leocadia wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, roaring in anger.
He didn’t dare to do anything to Sophia Leocadia, but he could certainly take care of Julius Reed!
“Are you two alright?”
Winona Leocadia turned around, composed himself, and looked down at Thompson, who lay on the floor with a bloodied face.
“I’m going to file a complaint! How could such a rude person be allowed in here!”
Although Thompson had been beaten, he had been secretly listening all along.
From the conversations of the group just now, he learned that the man who beat him had snuck in.
How could this be tolerated?
“I apologize, I will certainly seek justice for you!”
Winona Leocadia quickly helped Thompson up.
He didn’t dare offend such an important guest.
Fortunately, Sophia Leocadia had shown up today; later, he could shift all the blame onto her, and he would be off the hook.
“I am Thompson, the son of the president of the Oberon Group!”
Thompson yelled, furious.
“So it’s you!”
Winona Leocadia’s heart skipped a beat, realizing the gravity of the situation.
“Okay, please tell me what happened, and I will report it to the upper echelons of the group immediately, how does that sound? I will make sure you get an explanation,” he said.
After speaking, Winona pulled out his phone and started recording a video.
Oberon Group was among the Fortune 500, and recently the Leocadia family had plans to collaborate with them.
Winona Leocadia’s heart bloomed with joy that such a person had been beaten by Julius Reed.
Even if Sophia Leocadia protected him, Julius Reed was likely doomed!
“Brother Davenport, put me down!”
Sophia Leocadia kept yelling from Julius Reed’s shoulder, but her body honestly showed no struggle.
She wished this moment would never pass.
“If you keep yelling, I’m going to throw you down. People who don’t know any better would think I’m abducting you,” said Julius Reed.
As soon as he spoke, Sophia Leocadia immediately quieted down.
“That one, you are… the miss of the Leocadia family…”
Anna Harris walked out, still in shock.
Today, she felt like the whole world had changed.
The man she had looked down on as a freeloader turned out to be a billionaire, and her, she turned out to be one of the Leocadia family members.
Thinking back to all she had done before, Anna Harris wished she could just die from embarrassment.
She had seen people lose face, but never had she lost face like this.
“I told you a long time ago she has money, but you wouldn’t believe it,” Julius Reed sighed. “Now you feel foolish.”
“Who knew… who knew she was telling the truth…” Anna Harris remembered the day they made dumplings, Sophia Leocadia said she was the birthday girl, but Anna didn’t believe her at all.
“Alright. You stay here for a while, I have some business to handle.”
Julius Reed put Sophia Leocadia down and turned to leave.
“Hey, where are you going?” Quella Radcliffe called out to him.
“To crash the party.”
Julius Reed’s back was turned to the three of them as he threw up a ‘yeah’ hand sign.
