“Indeed! Go back!”

Julius Reed nodded satisfactorily.

“Young Master Leopold, I…”

The young man wanted to explain, but catching Atlas Leopold’s venomous gaze, he immediately returned to his place, daring not to say more.

At the same time, he silently prayed in his heart, hoping that Atlas Leopold would not blame him.

But was that even possible?

Though resentful, Atlas Leopold also took a deep breath of relief.

He felt that his torment should finally be over.

“You all! Come here! I want to see one slap from each of you!” But Julius Reed’s next words sent him plummeting to rock bottom.

‘You…”

“What about me?”

Julius Reed looked at him, sneering, “Do you think you still have the capital to talk to me now?”

“1…”

Atlas Leopold took a deep breath, managing to put on a forced smile, “Brother Davenport, I admit I was wrong today. Everyone has been hit, and I apologized.

Can you let me go back?”

Fearing that Julius Reed might have reservations, he quickly explained, “Please rest assured, today’s incident started because of me. I won’t tell my family anything about it, and you don’t have to worry about the Leopold Family seeking revenge.”

But in his heart, he was calculating an insanely vengeful comeback once he returned.

After all, suffering two setbacks within a week would be too much for anyone to bear.

Moreover, it happened in front of all the young gentleman and ladies from Five-river Province.

Within half a day, the news would spread throughout Five-river Province.

How would one of the proud Four Young Masters face this?

“Sorry, it’s already too late!”

Julius Reed shrugged slightly, pointing at the people, “Whoever doesn’t come over will end up like the guy just now. I don’t like to force people; I prefer to win them over with morality. Rest assured, whoever doesn’t come to slap, I won’t insist.”

He looked around the room, seeing fear in the eyes of those youngsters.

Anyone would be scared in their place.

The person they were supposed to hit was none other than Atlas Leopold of the Leopold Family from Five-river Province!

If they slapped Atlas Leopold today, their own misfortune might seem minor, but they feared that their entire family would suffer because of it.

After all, they represented their respective families. “I… don’t want to hit…”

A young man stepped forward from the crowd.

After all, Julius Reed had stated he never forced anyone.

There’s still something to be said for integrity, right?

Bang!

Just as others began to stir, Julius Reed kicked out, sending the young man tumbling to the ground.

“I was wrong!”

The young man immediately scrambled up and walked over to Atlas Leopold, “Mr. Leopold, I’m truly sorry!”

Smack!

After slapping him, he didn’t even wait to see Atlas Leopold’s murderous look before scurrying back to his seat.

“Next!”

Julius Reed stood with his hands clasped behind his back, a smile on his face.

“I’ll go!”

Ives Abbott sauntered up to Atlas Leopold, smiling, “Little brother, you seemed quite cocky at the beginning! Do you remember what you told Sister Abbott?”

She had not forgotten Atlas Leopold’s disrespectful attitude towards her when he first entered the room.

“Heh, Ives Abbott! You’d better think carefully about the consequences of what you’re about to do! Let me tell you, if you proceed with this, first ask yourself if your father would agree! They are forced by threats, doing it against their will —I might let that go.”

Atlas Leopold glared at Ives Abbott fiercely, “But you, you’re choosing to hit me voluntarily! I will not forget this vendetta, and I’ll tell your father about it! If our families break ties, have you considered whether you can bear the consequences…”

Smack!

Ives Abbott’s slap cut him off, “There’s no need for you to instruct me on what to do! Atlas Leopold, don’t think that just because you carry this title of ‘Four Young Masters,’ you’re something special! To tell you the truth, I never saw you as anything valuable!”

After delivering the slap, Ives Abbott returned to her chair with an air of superiority.

Meanwhile, she quietly unlocked her phone and started recording a video.

Smack!

One by one, the others made their way to Atlas Leopold, first saying sorry, then giving an explanation, before viciously slapping him across the face!

It didn’t take long before Atlas’s face had swollen up like a pig’s head.

And his hearing was almost gone, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

“Done!”

Ives Abbott clicked to share the video to her social circle, also adding a line of text: “Guess who the pig in front of me is! ”

Soon enough, comments began to appear beneath the post. “Ives, you’re bullying someone again! Who is this?”

“It looks hilarious, it couldn’t actually be a pig, could it?” “Why do I feel like it’s Mr. Leopold? Haha!”

Under this post, various rich kids started leaving comments.

Their circle was just that small; they got wind of everything almost immediately.

Ives Abbott may be the Abbott Family’s heiress, but she enjoyed hanging out with people beneath her status.

Because she found those at the top insufferably hypocritical.

Over time, among the daughters of Five-river Province, her circle was the largest.

Furthermore, some of the older generation had added her as a friend, and they were liking the post too.

“Ives, who is that pig-head?”

Many people messaged her privately on WeChat, all wanting to know who the unlucky soul was!

A very few joked that it could be Atlas Leopold.

But nobody really thought it was Atlas Leopold.

This was Five-river Province, after all, where the Leopold Family’s influence was immense. Who would dare do such a thing?

Besides, even if someone wanted to, they would have to possess the power to do it!

Thinking about messing with Atlas was like a daydream!

Ives Abbott couldn’t be bothered to reply directly, so she simply added a line under the post.

“Live broadcast of Atlas Leopold getting thrashed!”

Immediately, her social circle blew up.

“You’re not kidding, right! If Mr. Leopold sees this, you’ll inevitably get a scolding from him again!”

“Ives! Did Atlas offend you or something?”

“If that’s really Atlas Leopold, I would live stream myself eating shit standing on my head!”

Quickly, everyone started to respond.

But looking at the video, it really did look a bit like Atlas Leopold.

In the video, a man was kneeling on the ground, getting slapped on the face by everyone in turns.

“Atlas Leopold, you’re trending!”

Ives Abbott didn’t pay further attention, instead she pocketed her phone and excitedly said.

“Buzz!”

Soon, Atlas Leopold’s phone rang.

Because he had been knocked down so suddenly by Julius Reed, Atlas had no chance to even touch his phone.

He hadn’t even found a chance to call for help.

Now that his phone started ringing, Atlas became very agitated.

“Don’t move! Your lady here will answer for you!”

Ives Abbott leaped beside Atlas, snatching the phone from his embrace in a flash.

When she saw the incoming call number, she chuckled and answered the call.

“Mr. Leopold, that bitch Ives Abbott has posted something on her social network, saying you got beaten up! Hurry over there and ask her for an explanation!”

A young voice full of urgency came through on the other end of the line.

“Lapdog! Dare to call me a bitch? Fine! Elijah Leopold, we’re not done with today’s business!”

Ives Abbott let out a cold laugh: “You sweet-talk Sister Abbott to her face but call me a bitch behind her back, just you wait!” With that, she immediately hung up the call..
