Chapter 235 - 234 Billionaire 1



Gonzalez City, North District.

Rivers Homestead.

Hendrix Ridge, Knox Ridge’s elder brother, lived in this housing complex.

The Ridge Family used to be quite decent, earlier on Ulysses Ridge had set up a leather shoe factory, and had accumulated a modest amount of assets.

It was around the time when Radcliffe Group had just started, and Zade Radcliffe and Ulysses Ridge happened to know each other, which facilitated this marriage.

Later, as times rapidly progressed, Ulysses Ridge’s poor management led to the bankruptcy and closure of the factory, and consequently, the decline of the Ridge Family.

Before the factory closed, the Ridge siblings were all arrogant and ostentatious, showing off whenever they had the chance.

After the factory’s closure, the Ridge family fell from heaven to hell, and their quality of life dropped more than a notch.

This should have been Knox Ridge’s perfect opportunity to hold her head high with pride, but unexpectedly, Burl Radcliffe became a disappointment, being virtually insignificant within the group and unnoticed by Zade Radcliffe.

As a result, some of the younger generations of the Radcliffe Family even dared to boss them around.

Now with a hard-won opportunity to show off to these relatives, how could Knox Ridge let it slip by?

So she ended up lending over a million to her brothers and sisters consecutively.

As the saying goes, it’s easy to lend money, but hard to get it back.

Moreover, Knox Ridge couldn’t bring herself to demand the money, and the debt dragged on for a month.

Now faced with debt collectors at his doorstep, Hendrix Ridge naturally vented his anger on Knox Ridge, even telling her not to pretend to have money if she didn’t.

These words deeply stung Knox Ridge, and she decided to personally go over and sort the matter out.

“I’m telling you, this has nothing to do with me, I didn’t borrow your money! If you don’t leave now, don’t blame me for calling the police!”

Clutching a slab of two pounds of pork, Hendrix Ridge stood at the entrance of the housing complex arguing with someone.

A few young thugs surrounded him.

“Bro, you’re not being fair! We’ve come all this way to collect the money, and you refuse to pay up, but now you want to back out of your debt?”

One of the thugs, wearing a black leather jacket and bald head, arrogantly spoke with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

Behind him, the other thugs instigated further, “Pay up! I’m telling you, after today, interest comes into play! Ten thousand a day, you better think about paying it back!”

“Building 6, Unit 5, Apartment 2310. Bro, be careful walking at night!”

“Right! If someone knocks on your door in the middle of the night, don’t get scared!”

The thugs wore evil grins on their faces.

“You…”

Hendrix Ridge’s face flickered dark and light.

His home address was now memorized by these people; if they splashed red paint on it, how embarrassing would that be?

One thing common to the Ridge Family was their obsession with face.

If someone really splattered paint on his door, it would definitely be gossiped about in the community group.

How could he face the neighbors when stepping out of the house?

They all gambled together on ordinary days, and if the word got out, he would never be able to set foot in the mahjong parlor again.

Embarrassing!

“I warn you! I don’t owe you any money, I don’t even know who you are!”

Infuriated, Hendrix Ridge breathed heavily, “If you dare to pester me any further, I’ll call the police right now! ”

Having said that, he took out his mobile phone, trying to scare the thugs.

“Make the call! Go ahead! We’re just strolling around here, what evidence do you have that we’re threatening you? Besides, we look like upstanding young men, call them quickly!”

The lead thug waved his hand impatiently, urging Hendrix Ridge to make the call.

“If you don’t call, you’re a coward! All our brothers are watching!”

“Call! Don’t let us look down on you!”

The thugs were not scared at all, after all, they hadn’t done anything, they were just discussing life with Hendrix Ridge.

Call the police?

Under what pretext?

“You! Just wait!”

Hendrix Ridge trembled as he dialed, but truly didn’t have the guts to make the call.

Yeah, on what grounds?

There’s no evidence!

“Big brother! ”

Right at that moment, a Passat stopped at the entrance of the residential complex.

Knox Ridge hurriedly opened the car door, carrying her bag as she got out. “What’s going on! Who sent you people!”

She stormed up to those men, face set in a frown, and asked, “Do you think the

Ridge family is easy to bully?”

“Oh! Look what the cat dragged in, a crazy hag!”

The man in charge rubbed his head, raised his eyebrows, and said, “Scram! This has nothing to do with you!”

“What did you say?

Hands on her hips, Knox Ridge spoke furiously, “You dare tell me to scram? Who the hell do you think you are! I’m Knox Ridge, the money was lent by me, what debt are you here to collect!”

Seeing the grim look on Hendrix Ridge’s face, Knox Ridge suddenly felt a sinking feeling in her heart.

If this incident got out, how could she ever show her face at the Ridge family again?

Not only would she not have retrieved her dignity, but she’d also be utterly humiliated!

“So it’s you!”

Hearing Knox Ridge’s name, the thugs seemed to have an epiphany.

“Fine! This money belongs to our boss. Now that both of you are here, tell me, who’s going to pay it back?”

The little ruffian leader stepped forward, standing in front of Knox Ridge: “Here, we have the transaction record of the bank card; the money you loaned out has all gone through my boss’s account. Besides, this is all pre-marital property. ”

He took his hand out of his pocket, revealing a long bank statement.

“Now that your daughter is divorced from my boss, sorry, but my boss has decided to take the money back!”

“Let me see that!”

Knox Ridge snatched the bank statement and scrutinized it carefully.

As she looked, her heart skipped a beat!

“Impossible!”

Her hands holding the statement trembled, “How can this be him! When he came to the Radcliffe family, Julius Reed was penniless, not even a single dollar on him! Three years, three years! During these three years, everything he ate and drank was ours, how could this possibly be his bank statement!” Knox Ridge repeatedly checked the balance on the statement.

She even rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn’t seeing things. “Big brother, take a look for me, what’s this number?”

Knox Ridge handed the statement to Hendrix Ridge, her body quivering slightly.

“Let me see!”

Hendrix Ridge, seeing Knox Ridge in this state, felt disdain in his heart.

After all, she was from a wealthy household; how could she be so ignorant!

But when his eyes fell on that number, he couldn’t help but rub his eyes too.

“Billions! Damn it! This… this is your son-in-law?”

Hendrix Ridge’s voice also trembled.

Billions in assets!

“Give me that! Who told you to look at this! I told you to pay the money back, did you hear that!”

The thug snatched the bank statement back impatiently and pointed at the two, saying, “You have one day. If you don’t pay back the money, I’ll send people to your mahjong parlor, your neighborhood, even to your doorstep, to hang banners!”

At that moment, several vans drove over from a distance.

“What’s happening!”

Several young men got out of the vehicles, and the one leading them approached Knox Ridge and Hendrix Ridge: “Dad, aunty, are these the sons of bitches?”

“Yes! It’s them!”

Seeing his son come over, Hendrix Ridge’s mood instantly became much more serene.

Pierce Ridge was an employee of Aron Jackson, usually helping to manage venues and making quite a name for himself locally.

Now facing trouble, Hendrix Ridge had made a call to his son, not expecting him to arrive so quickly..
