Julius and Taylor stood on the veranda for a long time. The air was getting colder, with the wind blowing so hard that the woman's long hair moved over her mask. Taylor was naturally annoyed, so she smoothed her appearance and faced the party's direction to block out the wind."I think we should go in," the woman said. Her eyes gazed inside, where people were beginning to gather in one spot. It was like they were waiting for something big to happen. Taylor remembered that there was a stage in the center of the room. And it seemed like they were all headed there.Julius turned around and looked where Taylor was looking. The guests moved like magnets, and Julius thought it was an excellent time to mingle again. After all, the air was also getting stale. Taylor was seen rubbing her exposed arms because of the dress the woman was wearing, which had a variation of thin and transparent fabric but was elegant at the same time.So, Julius nodded and followed where Taylor went. The two of them
Finally, Julius walked out of the luxury hotel. The show of wealth under the guise of a dinner party he had attended was over. Julius hurried back to his car. As it turned out, Jeff was already waiting for him, who had just opened the door so the Master could immediately sit in the car while resting.Julius pressed his stiff nape, massaging it a few times while closing his eyes. It was pretty tiring meeting so many people at once. Not to mention the small quarrels he was involved in, even though they didn't lead to his identity being revealed. Still, it was a bit draining for her. Moreover, the party lasted well into the night.Jeff looked through the windshield and started driving, "Did Master Julius enjoy the party?" he asked without any respect. The Royce Rover left the hotel courtyard, entering the highway with other vehicles without stopping tonight.Julius nodded. The man leaned against the back of the car seat before replying, "Yeah, not too bad."Jeff smiled a little, "I hope
Julius quickly turned around and found a short-haired woman standing behind him. She had beautiful emerald green eyes with a dazzlingly sharp nose. She was only up to Julius' ears in height, with dark hair framing her small face.Her knee-length dress was covered by a black leather jacket, with white medium-heeled shoes. The woman could briefly be said to be very beautiful. "No need. I'll get my wallet that I left behind." Julius tried to hold back and paid for it himself. But instead, the woman shook her head and paid for Julius' drink."Just one, ma'am," he said, accepting the item. The woman walked away with a bag filled with several things Julius hadn't seen.The cashier handed Julius his drink, and he walked over to the woman who had helped him. The woman walked out of the supermarket, her shoes tapping loudly in the quiet of the night.Jeff saw Julius coming out with the woman. He had to open the window slightly to confirm his vision, and Jeff didn't recognize her, "Who's out wi
The sky was evident today. Several birds can be seen perched on the branches of a shady tree that stands firmly near the lake. Sunlight bounced off the water, spreading like shining Gold. A few small birds flew over, creating a picture of a black past that flashed quickly.Julius walked with Jeff, feeling the cool breeze, whipping his black hair that was the color of night and making Julius feel the warmth of the ongoing summer. Pharae was quite remarkable, with a temperature of twenty-two degrees today.Julius paused for a moment and gazed at the calm water reflecting the mesmerizing blue of the sky. The clouds that walked together looked like a procession heading somewhere far away. Julius was still enjoying the serenity of the lake until Jeff spoke up first, "Master, what you said about the project from the clients has come to fruition." The man stood behind Julius obediently and respectfully. His appearance was still the same as before: a shirt, suit, and material pants. The man
Julius had taken off his coat before he entered the project area. The foundation of the building had been neatly completed, and several other parts of the building were also nearing completion.Workers in yellow helmets were seriously working on every detail of the building. The noise of heavy machinery and the sound of clanking hammers filled the air. Strong, skilled workers move decisively, lifting heavy wooden beams, drilling into the ground, and installing strong steel structures. They work in teams, with each person having their own role and task. They seemed so focused on their work that they didn't realize that someone had entered the project area and was observing the workers one by one.Julius nodded, feeling quite satisfied with the way people worked here. The parts of the building looked well constructed. There was nothing wrong with the way they were doing it. The materials that came in were also of a certain quality, and Julius was sure that this would minimize any failure
"You can't do that," Julius said from the center of the crowd. The people who didn't know where the voice came from immediately looked around. They asked each other questions, looking at places they suspected. No one knew who dared to say it when the workers had almost given up because they were afraid of not being paid. And this man, who dared to refuse with his loud and firm voice.Julius stepped confidently forward, cutting through the crowd with confidence. The buzz of whispering workers was quite loud, but it didn't drown Julius out. People didn't know who he was, but they all parted and made way for Julius. And now, everyone can see Julius' face clearly.Julius stopped at the front of the line, his sharp eyes fixed on the two men who stood intimidating dozens of people. "You can't just cut the workers' wages. It's a right that should belong to them, because they have fulfilled their responsibilities."Hearing that, David immediately glared, "You'd better shut up and keep your mo
David and James stared angrily at Julius. They felt threatened and looked at each other. Both of them nodded, then moved closer to Julius to shoo him away. But before their hands could touch Julius, the man stepped away and gave them a piercing stare. Julius' gaze seemed to be capable of striking anyone who dared to disturb him."Are you going to keep quiet when you know your rights have been taken away?" Julius asked in a loud voice. Now, all the workers looked at him in confusion. Julius didn't look at David or James, who looked so annoyed that they wanted to drag him away. David threw the roll of paper in his hand, "Don't talk so much, damn it! You don't have anything to say! You have to leave, or I'll drag you away by force!" He was really furious and immediately pulled Julius' hand to leave. But unfortunately, the man didn't move at all. Instead, Julius grabbed David's hand and squeezed it hard. They exchanged cold glances before Julius ignored him like a useless item.Julius re
The man in the slick, luxurious suit looked at each of the workers. His eyes fell on Julius, who stood tall and undaunted while the atmosphere around him was tense. He felt that he now had so much authority that everyone bowed at his sudden presence. In fact, his chin was held high with a condescending look in his eyes.The man's brown hair looked like it had just been doused in oil, looking so shaggy that flies would probably fall down if they landed on it. He wore such a strong perfume that Julius was slightly nauseous when he smelled it, which mingled with the smell of mortar. He was no taller than Julius, but his style was absolutely exorbitant.Seeing the presence of the man, David, and James immediately approached and bowed respectfully. Both smiled broadly, "Nice to meet you, sir." The angry faces they had previously put on immediately faded away. They became friendly and welcomed the handshake of the man who had just arrived.Julius looked at the three suspiciously. This unkno
