All the bosses had gathered at Dante’s mansion after receiving information that the main master was planning a counterattack on the Quillon family. They had come there before to see Chelsea punished. However, that did not happen because Dante could not find the girl anywhere.It looked like the main leader would not make Chelsea a priority. He had determined to attack the Quillon family in the near future. The bosses of the organization came with some of their confidants, while Dante was accompanied by Ernest as usual.They walked into a room with a round table. After Dante sat down, the members quickly took their seats. But the underlings stand behind their boss like Ernest stood behind Dante’s chair.“I think I shouldn’t waste time explaining what we are going to discuss. You all should already know why I invited you to the mansion.”Everyone nodded at the same time when they heard Dante’s words. Then, the main leader continued his explanation.“We will not attack the Quillon family
Molly was at practice when she received a message from Luke. She was not surprised by the murder plan since she had predicted it. Sooner or later, Dante would come up with a plan to kill Rex.“What are you thinking about?” Rex asked because Molly looked focused on her phone. “Let me guess. You must be reading a message from Luke. What did he report?”“Your murder plan, Young Master.”There was no change in Rex’s expression when he heard that someone was planning to kill him. Instead, he continued hitting the punch bag as if he did not hear anything. In one blow, the punch bag was torn and shattered.It was not the first punch bag damaged by Rex. Anyone who walked into the practice room would be surprised to see a mound of broken punch bags at the corner. Molly did not even know how many punch bags Rex had smashed. The bags were delivered to the mansion in two trucks. The total number was probably in the hundreds, with the punch bag Rex had just destroyed being the last.“You are deve
Julio’s eyes widened when his father said Miles Hesperia’s name. He did not expect that name to appear in their conversation. Miles was the current head of the Hesperia family, who had been in an alliance with the Quillon family for generations.Because he felt it was impossible, Julio snorted immediately. “Sir Miles could have joined in to spy on us. I don’t want to get in any more trouble because he’s no ordinary guy.”“I knew you would say that,” Larry grinned as if he had won the lottery. “Our alliance was also suspicious of Miles because he was on Carlton’s side long ago. However, the alliance decided to accept him because we will take advantage of him.”“What you mean to take advantage of Sir Miles?”“Miles promised to give some money as support to the alliance. We will use the money and trick him. We will not give him a true report. That way, he will get nothing!”Julio, who was not interested at first, considered again about his father’s request. He did avoid Rex for some time
Red did not believe Julio could change in one day. He was sure Julio planned something because he remembered what Molly talked about Julio in the practice room. The Devastating Blow was the one who ordered Julio to spy on him. Because he had known about the alliance, Rex could maintain his behavior in front of Julio. Nonetheless, he acted naturally to avoid suspicion. He let Julio to being close to him. They even went to the dining hall together, making everyone’s eyes bulge in shock. “Why did Rex Hart have lunch with Julio? I don’t expect to see this!” “I heard that Julio realized his mistake and apologized to everyone he had bullied before.”“Oh, really? I didn’t know that because I’m busy with my study.” “Almost everyone on campus knows about Julio’s behavior change. Looks like Rex has truly forgiven him so they have lunch together.”Rex ignored people gossiping about him and Julio. He sat down in the corner and started to eat his lunch. Meanwhile, Julio bit his slice of pizza
Lower class? Julio gritted his teeth when he heard that word come out of Carlton’s mouth. It was obvious that Carlton was looking down on him. He could not do anything nonetheless.He was in the Quillon family’s mansion right now. Julio could not make trouble here. Moreover, Carlton was the number one person in Histrio. If he replied to the old man’s words, then it would be no different from jumping into the lion’s den.Meanwhile, Rex did not expect his father to talk like that to Julio. He decided to follow his father’s acting as he thought it would be interesting.“Dad, don’t say that to Julio. He is my friend and his father is also rich. He is not from the lower class,” Rex said with a smile.Carlton realized that Rex wanted to join his act. Because of that, he would continue to improvise since this had never been planned before.He examined Julio’s appearance again and asked, “What’s his father’s name?”“If I’m not mistaken his name is Larry Maxwell. Am I right?”Julio, who was be
A few minutes later, the servants showed up to serve the tea and pastries. Julio was waiting in nervousness. Julio had never had tea with the rich before because he refused to learn etiquette. He was worried that he made a mistake that would embarrass him.“My family has a tea garden and this is the best tea picked,” Rex explained as the servant poured the tea.Julio pretended to listen in seriousness. In fact, he did not care where the tea came from. “Nice to hear that. I hope I can have a tea garden someday. It seems interesting,” he showed a fake smile. Meanwhile, Carlton and Alyssa gave no response. They started to drink their tea, followed by Rex. The way they drank tea was so elegant and it made Julio insecure. He did not know how to hold the tea cup properly.As a result, he was holding the teacup as he usually did. The servants in the living room noticed that and started whispering to each other while laughing. Julio could tell they were making fun of him because he had no ba
Rex talked about the Quillon family’s company birthday party to Julio. The party would be held in a few days on a private island. Only certain people could attend the party, but he said he would invite Julio.“I have never come to your family party before. Thank you for inviting me,” Julio smiled because he was really happy.The guests who attended the party must have come from high society and influential people. Julio’s family had never received an invitation to attend the party before. If he could be there, people would know him.Julio did not give Rex a chance to respond because he immediately went back to talking. “Can I invite my father or friends? They will not do anything bad at the party. They are also from the high class like us.”“My father limits the number of guests. But I think I can give you three invitation cards. Give them to your father and two friends,” Rex replied without a second thought.He had a reason why he agreed to Julio’s request. The company’s birthday par
Carlton was discussing his schedule with his secretary over the phone when he heard a knock on the door. The servants could not have dared to knock on his door because he had already warned them that he would be busy for a while.The one who came must be Rex. Without thinking twice, Carlton told his secretary that he would call back when his business was over. He then ended the call and went to open the door.“Is that annoying brat still around?” Carlton asked when he saw that Rex had only come with Morris.Rex chuckled and shook his head. He entered the room after receiving confirmation from his father. Morris also came in because they were going to talk about Miles Hesperia.The door was locked by Carlton as he realized this conversation would be personal. He took a seat in front of Rex and Morris.“I know daddy’s busy, so I will get straight to the point,” Rex said, showing a serious expression. “Luke report to me if Sir Miles joins the alliance. Do you know anything about that?”C
