Chapter 422 I'll knock you out, you good-for-nothing!
Barry didn't know Paige, but Leroy did.
They had met at several major banquets hosted by Northwind, and he knew her identity.
She was both the CEO of the Universe Group and Raymond's wife.
Could this highly esteemed Paige in Northwind really be connected to the Smith family?
As Paige walked in, Barry, unaware of her identity, immediately jumped up and pointed at her, shouting. "Dad, it's this woman. She was with the Smith family this morning bullying me. She's the one who said she would bankrupt our family."
As Barry spoke, Leroy wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Before he could stop Barry from further offending Paige, Julian, who was following Paige, entered the room.
Barry's emotions exploded even more: "This guy, Dad, he's the one who hurt me."
Julian glanced at Barry. "Hurt? So fragile?"
Paige looked at Julian. "In your hands, who can withstand a beating?"
Then Paige turned to Leroy. "Mr. Myers, this is my personal bodyguard. I'm really sorry, but Barry offended my friend today and got beaten up. You should take him for a check-up or something. If there are any issues, I'll cover the medical expenses."
With Paige saying this, Leroy saw that Barry still wanted to speak and slapped him directly.
Leroy's slap left Barry stunned.
He covered his face with his hand. "Dad, the person who hit me is over there. You hit the wrong person."
Leroy, clutching his chest in anger, said, "I hit you, you idiot. Apologize, apologize right now."
Barry was confused. "Dad, why should I apologize?"
Leroy now knew that the Myers family was truly facing a disaster.
With the combined power of the Universe Group and Hawke Corporation pressing down, what could he do to resist?
Leroy said, "I told you to apologize, so apologize. Why so much nonsense? Quickly, apologize to Ms. Ellison, to Ms. Ellison's bodyguard, to Ms. Smith, to Mr. Simon Smith, and to Mr. Frederick Smith. Hurry up."
As Leroy spoke, he even pretended to kick Barry.
Barry was furious. "Dad, are you crazy? You want me to apologize to these Smith family people? Have you forgotten that they dared to fight us? In just one afternoon, we've already lost billions of dollars. And you still want me to apologize to them? That bodyguard hit me, and I have to apologize to him? I even want to sue him for intentional harm now."
Leroy couldn't even hold Barry's head down; Barry was simply too arrogant. "Intentional harm? Do you really not want to inherit the Myers Group? Do you understand who you've offended?"
Saying this, Leroy decided to let the foolish Barry know Paige's identity, so he wouldn't continue to act stupidly. "The lady in front of you is the CEO of the Universe Group, Xanthe Ellison."
When Leroy revealed that Paige was the CEO of the Universe Group, Barry finally calmed down a bit.
But only for a moment.
Because Leroy continued, "She is also the wife of Raymond from the Carnegie family. Why are you so stupid? Apologize immediately. If you don't apologize, the Myers family will disown you."
At this moment, Barry finally realized who he had offended.
But he felt very wronged. He just wanted to bully Amelia.
With his status and family power, why should Amelia reject him?
But this ungrateful woman not only rejected him but also brought him so much trouble.
Now, Barry finally understood why the Smith family dared to fight the Myers family despite their strength.
Barry's apology was stuck in his throat. He had suffered a loss and now had to apologize. No matter how he looked at it, he felt more wronged.
But clearly, he had used his power to oppress others, and now someone more powerful was pressing down on him. It seemed he had no choice but to apologize.
Barry had just opened his mouth. "I..."
He had only squeezed out one word when Amelia interrupted him again. "No need. My father, my brother, and I don't need your apology. As for Ms. Ellison, she probably doesn't want to see you at all. Mr. Myers, Barry, I don't know if you're here to warn or threaten the Smith family. But once a fight starts, it won't end easily. The Smith family may have been weak in the past, but that's just everyone's previous impression of us. The current Smith family won't be easily bullied by anyone. Since it's such a coincidence, let's use this opportunity to let the world know that the Smith family has reached a comprehensive cooperation with Ms. Ellison. Moreover, the Smith family has officially become a subsidiary of the Ellison family, a century-long partnership, working together!"
Amelia finally felt a sense of relief.
Barry really thought he was the sun, and the whole world had to revolve around him? Did he think that any woman he wanted would love him with just a beckon?
Amelia's words left Leroy completely devastated.
The Smith family had reached such a cooperation with the Universe Group, and they hadn't even announced it?
Leroy looked at Paige with empty eyes. "Ms. Ellison, why didn't you announce such a cooperation?"
Paige smiled slightly, "We haven't had the chance! Mr. Myers, I'm really sorry. We had no grudges before. Today's incident is just a coincidence. But since it happened, we can't just forgive it easily, can we? You are a person of status; you should understand. The more at times like this, the more we need to make a statement. The Smith family is indeed different now, but we also need an opportunity to let everyone quickly remember this fact. It's just that the Myers family is unlucky. Please leave. Whether you came today to provoke or for some other reason, you won't achieve your goal."
At this moment, Paige was using the gentlest words to say the most ruthless things.
Her words directly meant that the Myers Group was truly going to become a thing of the past!
As they left The Smith Corporation with their heads down, Barry still angrily shouted, "Dad, we can't just give up like this. Let's go back and tell Mom, then unite with Grandpa's family..."
Before Barry could finish, Leroy pulled out his belt and started hitting Barry. "You idiot, you brainless fool. It's just a woman. Have I ever said anything about you playing with women? But now, to play with a woman, you've ruined the whole company. And now you want to drag your grandfather's family down with you? You idiot, I'll knock you out."
