The Heir's Dominance

Chapter 2

Julius was shocked! He had struggled so hard to fulfil Mr Noel's wishes. He had said that Julius could marry Bella after the company became stronger.

But what did he hear now? Bella was saying that she was going to marry Roman!

"But you're my fiancée, Bella! You can't get engaged to someone else like that!" Julius shouted in disgust. His loud voice was clearly getting attention, echoing throughout the room, which was now suddenly silent.

Hearing Julius' protest, Mr Noel turned around and gave him a cold stare. Not to mention everyone else who was there. There was no friendly look at all.

Julius clearly didn't know how tired Noel was of pretending to be nice to him. Putting on a face full of smiles even though his heart was sick to death. To be honest, Noel already wanted to throw him away.

Whispers began to be heard, "Shameless poor man! Where is his face that he can say such a thing?"

Julius looked around, the faint buzzing growing louder. Like bees switching hives, they pointed at Julius' face dispassionately.

"You? My fiancé? Don't dream! I don't want to have a fiancée with a lousy man like you!" Bella pointed at Julius from the podium. Her eyes rolled in mockery.

"We're not on the same level, and we're not compatible at all! You're poor and unattractive! A far cry from Ramon! Only Ramon is suitable for a beautiful and classy girl like me!" Bella said while embracing Ramon Niels' arm.

Julius' hands were clenched in emotion, "But I've done a lot for you and the company!"

Hearing Julius' words, Mr. Noel immediately became inflamed. "What an ignorant man! Have you forgotten that I helped you? Where's your shame, huh?!" shouted Mr Noel, the veins in his neck tightening.

Mr. Noel's shout drew another buzz. The whispers grew louder and soon turned into outright insults.

"What a poor man! What dream does he have of marrying a woman as beautiful as Bella?" A woman in heavy makeup sneered, her mouth moving like a mouse.

"Sir, you made Bella my fiancée yourself! I'm sure you haven't forgotten that!" Julius looked sternly at the man he had come to respect. His chest heaved fearlessly.

Julius would never forget how kind Noel had been to him. Asking him to marry Bella and help him improve the company. He also promised to pay off his father's debts.

"Don't make excuses! How could Mr. Noel possibly want to have a son-in-law like you? You're just a poor man trying to find a stepping stone, right? You're clueless!" Ramon mocked with his eyes wide.

"He's so clueless! If Mr. Noel ever makes him his son-in-law, he'll seize all the power!" I don't know who said it, but it was a woman's voice.

But to Julius, it didn't matter!

"I helped Mr. Noel grow the company! I've also taken over so much of Bella's work! Do I still look like I'm looking for a stepping stone?" Julius defended his pride that was now being trampled on! He wasn't going to let these people talk all they wanted!

"Helping to grow the company, he says? You have big dreams! If I were you! I wouldn't have the face to come to the gate!" taunted the young man with a glass of wine. Which was immediately met with so much laughter.

Everyone obviously trusted Mr. Noel very much. They remembered how tired he was of dealing with the useless and troublesome Julius. Noel was too kind for someone as shameless as poor Julius.

Julius was now feeling very humiliated!

"Don't talk so much, Julius! You'd better pay off your debts far higher than your worth!" interrupted Mr Noel suddenly. He wouldn't let a lowly man like Julius ruin the good name he had built up over the years.

At the mention of debt, Julius was naturally surprised. He felt that this was not right. His face tightened, with veins bulging.

Especially when big men suddenly appeared and surrounded him like fugitives. Julius wasn't sure, but they looked like people who had collected debts from him.

"What do you mean, sir?" Julius glared, the man trying to break free as people from several corners of the building grabbed him.

Noel laughed broadly, "Are you stupid? Of course all your debts haven't been paid off! So now, pay them off with your dreams and big talk!"

"You tricked me! You said you paid off all of father's debts! Then what's all this? Didn't we have a deal?" Julius shouted, his face visibly red with anger. He remembered Noel's promise, saying he would pay off his father's debts if the man would serve the company and make a name for himself!

Noel walked over, "Do you have proof? It's still good that I want to pay off your many debts! Otherwise, how much would it be now?" Noel whispered slyly.

Hearing Noel's explanation, Julius realized that he had been completely deceived. He had been fooled and made a slave. And all of that was not worth what he was now getting. His debts were not paid off, and Julius had worked hard to fulfil Noel's wishes.

"As it turns out, Mr. Noel, whom I respected all this time, is very cunning! You cheated me and made me a slave, in order to increase the company's success, without giving me anything in return." Julius looked at Noel expressionlessly.

Noel just chuckled as the man walked away with a sly smile. Every step the man took seemed so arrogant and haughty!

"Don't say anything without clear evidence! I can throw you in jail, you shameless bastard!" Noel mocked and threatened. In the background, Bella grinned, laughing at Julius' futile bravado.

The man had no one here. Everyone was looking down on him and disgusted, it would be hard to tell the truth, even if it was a fact!

Julius was furious, he had worked for two years without being paid by them. Even the work Julius did was far from normal. Even though he had been accommodated and lived in the Cellen family home, Julius had always done a good job. And Noel casually said that Julius was shameless!

"You should be responsible for this fraud! I'm going to sue you all!" shouted Julius, who was now struggling against the debt collectors.

His body was forcefully carried out of the party room, leaving Noel and Bella's family laughing and calling him a fool. The man growled! Trying to hold his feet up so he could return and denounce the man who had played him!

Now, Julius was thrown into the car. He couldn't fight back and could only stay in place with his breath catching. He didn't know where he would be taken, but it was clear that he had been completely cheated!

Until the sound of tires squealing, and his body was pushed forward forcefully. The car braked suddenly, with the sound of people cursing inside.

Julius could see a Rolls Royce car blocking the road through the windshield. With its bright and dazzling lights, someone appeared in an expensive-looking white suit.

Some of the men from the debt collectors who had arrested Julius got out of the car, challenging the man who now confronted them haughtily. "Who are you, huh? How dare you block the road like this? How many lives do you have?"

Until a sword was removed from its sheath, the man said, "It doesn't matter who I am. Let go of the man you're carrying right now!"

The two men who had caught Julius laughed lightly, "Do you think we're afraid of that cheap sword of yours? Don't dream!"

Julius couldn't hear what they were talking about from inside the car. He also had yet to learn who the man was. But wasn't this a good opportunity for him to escape?
