Chapter 234: Chapter 233 Someone Goes to Collect a Debt 1
Translator: 549690339
“Zalmon Martin, you’re slandering me!”
Upon hearing that the matter had been exposed, Otis Radcliffe immediately walked up to Zalmon Martin and fiercely slapped her across the face!
Slap!
“Grandpa has always treated you well, and now that something has happened, you actually have the audacity to tarnish his name! Tell me, are you even human?”
Otis Radcliffe pointed at her, cursing furiously.
Seeing this, the rest of the Radcliffe Clan members were at a loss for what to do.
“Zalmon Martin, if what you’re saying is true, I’ll consider being lenient with you.”
Quella Radcliffe stared intently at Zalmon Martin, her gaze growing colder and colder.
It seemed the matter was exactly as Julius Reed had guessed, involving Zade
Radcliffe and the hardliners of the Radcliffe Family plotting behind the scenes.
“President Radcliffe, I’m really not lying!”
Zalmon Martin, covering her swollen face, couldn’t hold back her tears. “Security, take control of Otis Radcliffe! Also, search Mr. Radcliffe!”
The financial director, Dempsey Davenport, stood up from her seat and began issuing orders.
The security guards burst in instantly and pinned Otis Radcliffe against the wall.
“You’re all rebelling! You even dare to lay hands on me! Just wait, and see how I deal with all of you!”
While pressed against the wall, Otis Radcliffe cursed incessantly, “You eat and drink at our expense, and now you dare to touch me!”
But when he turned his head and saw the faces of the security guards, he couldn’t help but his expression drastically changed.
All these people had unfamiliar faces; he had never seen them before.
Having been the general manager of the Radcliffe Group for many years, Otis Radcliffe had a clear impression of the security staff.
All of the people in front of him were strangers, and none of the security
guards who used to follow his and Zade Radcliffe’s orders were present.
This gave Otis Radcliffe an extremely bad premonition.
“You eat and drink at our expense?”
Quella Radcliffe asked with a smile, “Otis Radcliffe, are you the one who pays the security guards’ salaries?”
“This…”
Otis Radcliffe was at a loss for words but still attempted to argue, “What right do you have to pin me against the wall?”
“You hit Zalmon Martin, and for that, you must be held criminally responsible. Once I settle the matter with the invitations, I will naturally hand you over to the police station. As for the compensation, it will depend on what Zalmon Martin decides.”
Quella Radcliffe turned away, looking at Zade Radcliffe, “Grandpa, I apologize for the offense!”
“You dare!”
Zade Radcliffe shouted furiously, emitting the authority of the Family Head, “Quella Radcliffe, do not cross the line! Do you really think I, Mr. Radcliffe, will let you manipulate me? Don’t forget, I am the Clan Leader!”
After saying this, he looked at the security guards, “You’d better think about the consequences, and see if I, Zade Radcliffe, will let anyone who has offended me get away!”
Usually, being intimidated like this, the security guards would definitely stand still.
After all, Zade Radcliffe was once the chairman of the Radcliffe Group, and no one Imew for sure if he might make a comeback.
But now these people were professional security guards hired by Dempsey Davenport for a hefty sum. They only listened to the chairman and followed orders without fail.
“If Grandpa is innocent, I will naturally apologize, and I will relinquish the chairman’s position as compensation for your emotional distress!”
Quella Radcliffe gave a signal, and the security guards immediately began their search.
“Quella Radcliffe, you’ve really got some nerve, daring to even…”
“Chairman, we’ve found it!”
A security guard pulled a red invitation out of Zade Radcliffe’s bag.
“Open it, and check the number on it.” Quella Radcliffe commanded with a stern face.
‘Yes!”Điscover n𝒆w chapt𝒆rs 𝒐n n0𝒗e(l)bi𝒏(.)com
After unfolding the invitation, the security guard announced to everyone, “The number on it is 0328!”
The room erupted into an uproar.
The faces of the Radcliffe family members flickered between light and dark as they pondered incessantly.
Although Zade Radcliffe was a sly old fox, the fact that he had been defeated time and again meant that these family members had lost faith in him from the bottom of their hearts.
The ability displayed by Quella Radcliffe, on the other hand, was indeed convincing. The opposition from these family members was only due to their own interests.
Now that the cash had been sent to their cards, their last concerns had almost dissipated.
“Grandpa, do you have anything else to say?”
Quella Radcliffe smiled faintly, but her heart was filled with bitterness.
She would rather Zade Radcliffe had nothing at all and step down from the chairman position herself, than believe her grandfather would scheme against her like this.
“Chairman, what should we do?”
According to the rules, an action like Zade Radcliffe’s, which seriously harmed the company’s interests, was grounds for accountability.
“Let him go, let him walk.”
Quella Radcliffe waved at the security guards, who immediately backed off.
“Grandpa, from now on, you’ll be the head of the company’s Inspection Department, responsible for overseeing all departments. As for your salary, based on your experience, I will convert it into equity and give it to you!” Watching a disgraced Zade Radcliffe, Quella Radcliffe said this indifferently.
As if she didn’t mind at all the things he had done before.
“Humph!”
Feeling humiliated, Zade Radcliffe left in a huff, storming off.
Otis Radcliffe also followed closely behind, fleeing with his tail between his legs.
After dealing with the company affairs, the enthusiasm of the employees increased greatly.
Many of the older employees, who used to be perfunctory towards Quella Radcliffe, would now sincerely address her as President Radcliffe when they saw her.
But a phone call from Knox Ridge instantly dispelled Quella Radcliffe’s good mood.
“Girl, where are you?”
“Mom. What’s the matter?”
Hearing the urgent tone, Quella Radcliffe knew it couldn’t be good news.
“Remember the 150,000 yuan we lent to your aunt? Now someone is at her house blocking the door demanding the money! Your aunt even called me, asking if it was me who sent someone to collect it!”
Knox Ridge’s tone was very anxious.
“Isn’t it about time that debt was paid back? Mom, you said it would only take half a month, and now it’s been almost a month, right?”
Quella Radcliffe asked, frowning.
Initially, when these relatives came to borrow money, if Quella Radcliffe didn’t lend it, Knox Ridge would make a scene at home. Later, promising it was only for half a month, the matter was dropped.
But borrowing money was easy, getting it back was hard.
Once these relatives took the money, they all vanished without a trace. When Quella Radcliffe called to remind them, she was met with a message that nobody was available to take the call, and Knox Ridge did nothing about it.
“What in the world is going on! Both of your aunts and three of your uncles have called, saying someone has come to collect the debt!”
Knox Ridge was at her wit’s end. How could things coincide so perfectly?
Nothing had happened for so long after lending the money, but now, just as Quella Radcliffe had divorced Julius Reed, debt collectors had shown up.
“Mom, that money is Julius’s, it has nothing to do with me. From now on, take charge of your own affairs and do not discuss anything with me,” Quella Radcliffe said before hanging up the phone and taking a deep breath.
Julius Reed had done the right thing by doing this; otherwise, these relatives would become even more outrageous in the future.
“Mr. Radcliffe, prepare the car!”
After being hung up on, Knox Ridge walked downstairs, furious.
“I don’t believe it, they’ll just have to leave without their money, what can they do to me!”
She grabbed her small purse and, dragging Zade Radcliffe behind her, left the house.
“Let’s go to my second brother’s house first, it’s the closest to us!”
