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
Rex did not always spend break time with Lennart because their classes had different study hours. Today he was in the dining hall alone while eating his lunch. He had expected Julio to come soon, as usual, to meet him.However, Julio came with Alexis this time. Rex was not confused or surprised because he had expected this. He knew Alexis would join the alliance with Julio to destroy him.“Alexis? What brings you here?” Rex pretended to ask in surprise.Alexis smiled and sat in front of Rex with Julio. “I came to apologize. After seeing Julio apologize to you, I realized that I never apologized sincerely.”“Actually, I forgave you a long time ago. But I stayed away from you because you were close to Chelsea. I thought you two worked together to play with my feelings.”“I understand why you are acting like that. Chelsea is a bad girl. She has also not been to college since a few days ago. I’m sure she’s lazy about going to college and chooses to waste her parents’ money.”Rex nodded an
In the car, Alexis could hear Edmund screaming. He also realized that Edmund was trying to stop him, but he pretended not to know since he had to bring Rex to the forest on time.“Is he your friend?” Rex asked because he also heard Edmund’s scream.Alexis pretended to look confused. “Huh? Which friend are you referring to?”“I saw someone screaming and chasing your car. If I’m not mistaken it’s Edmund from my department. Do you two know each other?”“No. I don’t know why he was chasing my car.”What Alexis said just now was the truth. He did not know why Edmund told him to stop. It was odd because he had not interacted with Edmund in a long time. After getting beaten up by Morris, he restrained himself from bullying others.“Looks like Edmund has something to tell you. You’d better stop for a while,” Rex suggested, feeling curious as to why Edmund was suddenly involved with Alexis.However, Alexis had no intention of stopping the car.“Why don’t you stop? I don’t think we are in a hur
At Struthia University.Lennart always paid close attention to the professor’s explanations. However, he could not focus on this lecture because of someone’s presence. He was sitting by the window and a man wearing glasses motioned for him to come out.Since he did not know the strange man, he decided to ignore him and focus on the lecture.“Sssh, do you know him?” Adelard, who was sitting beside Lennart, asked in a low voice.Lennart shook his head. “I don’t know him. Maybe he’s got the wrong person.”“But now he’s showing me a paper and writing Rex’s name on it. I think this is an important matter.”The disinterest on Lennart’s face faded away when he heard Rex’s name. Without thinking twice, he walked out of the class, ignoring the professor who asked him why he left. Everyone in the class was amazed since Lennart never left class like this. He also went out without packing his things first, as if he was being chased by zombies.Meanwhile, Edmund breathed a sigh of relief that he
