"Your mouth is so big, huh?! Did you take the wrong medicine?" Ron teased with widened eyes. He found Julius' remark completely unfounded.
Julius smiled wryly, "Isn't that you with the big mouth, Ron? I know what scandal you've been hiding." Julius was never afraid of anything, let alone the power he had now. He casually folded his arms across his chest, staring at Ron's seemingly unaffected face.
Ron snorted, the man dismissive of Julius' words. To him, Julius was nothing more than a weak and powerless threat.
"Tell me, trickster! Tell me what you know!" challenged Ron in his arrogant manner. Now, Julius looked around. Everyone was paying attention to him. It wouldn't be wrong if he got back at Ron and Tina now! He would humiliate them just like they did to Julius!
"You guys are really sneaky, stealing your coworkers' money without any guilt. Your behavior is absolutely disgusting!" said Julius, who now had a straight face. He knew everything that the two people who now looked pale were doing.
"Now, you're still hanging around without shame. Should I call the police to arrest you?" Julius retorted boldly.
Ron glared in surprise. His face paled, and his heart suddenly beat fast. But he cleared his throat, pretending to put on a normal face despite his overwhelming panic.
"Don't try to tell lies, Julius! You don't know anything!" Ron's index finger was raised even as he trembled, pointing at Julius' face, which was not afraid at all.
"You're scared? Of course I am! Fraudsters like you should be terrified when you're found out!" Julius retorted, now backing them both into a corner.
Tina, who was shocked to death, swallowed nervously. She clasped her hands tightly to cover her anxiety and fear.
"How could we be frauds! It's clearly you who did it! Don't try to twist the facts!" Tina shouted, stuttering slightly.
"You don't even have proof! Don't make accusations! Just get out of here, you're an eyesore!" Ron, who felt a little distressed that what Julius said was true, tried to shoo her away. Whatever happened, no one should know what really happened now! He was going to kick Julius out of here right now!
The man came forward and grabbed Julius' hand to drag him out. However, Julius rejected Ron's hand, which was about to hold him. The man glared at the man who had caused a scene with him this time.
"Take your hand away, Ron! You have no right to kick me out! You're a nobody here!" Julius shouted loudly.
Not accepting Julius' refusal, Ron was inflamed! He threw his fist as hard as he could. But Julius managed to dodge it.
"Damn it! Don't be so powerful, Julius! You're nobody here either!" Ron shouted in a big voice.
From the commotion, a security guard appeared in a hurry. Seeing him coming, Tina immediately spoke up, "Security guard! Get rid of that bum immediately! He's making a mess and commotion here. It's very disturbing!"
When the security guard turned around, he found Julius looking at him coldly and sharply. There was a slight sense of unease, but he thought hard when he saw Julius' dishevelled appearance and unfamiliar face.
In terms of appearance, Julius clearly looked much messier than the other people there. How could someone like this live here?
Seeing the security guard who seemed to doubt Julius' existence, Ron said, "Sir, this bum made a scene and tried to break in. We've stopped him, but he won't come out!"
Julius glared, "I'm not a tramp. I clearly live here, don't talk nonsense." Julius said in a cold.
Ron shook his head, "Sir, look, he doesn't even have manners! Throw him out, Sir!"
The security guard was immediately affected by Ron's words, backed up by Julius' appearance, who didn't look like a rich man!
"Get out! This is no place for a bum like you! Don't make a scene!" the security guard accused in a high tone.
The moustachioed man had no idea who Julius was and why he was there now.
"Are you new?" asked Julius with a flat face.
Hearing Julius' question, the security guard choked up. Of course, he was new there! How did this man know that?
"None of your business, you'd better get out of here now! Or I'll drag you out by force!" threatened the security guard.
Julius snorted, "You fools, you'll regret this!"
"Say what you want, Julius! No one will believe your big mouth!" Tina laughed with satisfaction, feeling victorious in all her accusations.
The noise was still going on, with the faithful crowding around. Until the elevator doors opened, and a well-dressed man stepped out of it.
The crowd and the whispers around him disturbed the man who was supposed to go down to the basement to get his car. He wondered what was going on and paused to take a quick peek.
"Shit!" he cursed under his breath when he saw Julius' face. The man frantically cut through the crowd and walked towards the front to meet the arguing people. No matter what, he had to stop this ruckus!
"Excuse me! Excuse me!" he said to get rid of the people blocking the way. Panic made her worry even more. Hopefully, he wasn't too late!
It was still vivid in his memory how his deep sleep had to be interrupted when an important phone call rang. Last night, someone told her that an important person was coming here. And he was specifically asked to give him exceptionally good service.
Not only that, he also had to prepare his penthouse with all the advantages and privileges because he wanted his special guest to be satisfied. He certainly wouldn't shirk the task.
Especially when he remembers the message of someone who turned out to be Julius's man if the guest who will occupy his penthouse is not just anyone! He has great influence and must be a priority. Both in terms of security and comfort.
Looking closely at Julius' face, he was sure they were the same person. The picture shown last night was exactly the same as Julius' face!
When he finally reached the source of the commotion, the man in the black suit immediately snapped at the security guard and pushed him away with an angry face!
"What are you doing, huh?!" he shouted boomingly. All eyes were on him, terrified of the well-dressed man's yelling.
Ron and Tina, who knew nothing, just put on confused faces. Both clearly didn't understand why the man was yelling like that at all of them.
"That man has made a scene here, Mr. Director! He refuses to leave and insists on staying here," reported the security guard who had arrived earlier. He still thought that Julius was a vagrant who liked to cause trouble. Not realizing the man he called the director was increasingly panicked and frightened.
"That's right, Sir! He's just a tramp who likes to cheat and tries to cause trouble here!" Tina added. However, her confidence evaporated as the director's face darkened.
The director looked at all three of them with an angry face and now pointed directly at all of them.
"You don't know who he is, do you? Don't talk nonsense!" The man looked very panicked. Now, he turned around and bowed respectfully to Julius.
"Welcome, Sir! Sorry for the inconvenience! I'll take care of it right away!" he greeted Julius without lifting his face.
Suddenly, the director's words made everyone whisper. Tina and Ron were no different. Both of them were stunned, so confused that their eyes almost jumped out of their heads!
Ron and Tina looked at each other in confusion. In fact, Tina had to glare to confirm what she was seeing now. The director was bowing to Julius! Clearly, this was out of the ordinary for both of them. "Sir, he's already causing trouble here! Why are you bowing to him?" asked Ron in disbelief. His eyes narrowed sarcastically, wondering what the director was doing. Tina replied that she had to convince this man called Mr. Sam to kick Julius out and disrespect him. "That's right, Sir! If it weren't for this bum, there wouldn't be any chaos in Mr. Sam's elite estate!" "Shut up, you guys don't know anything!" said Sam, who seemed to be holding back a growl. The two of them seemed to him like the troublemakers here. This made for a messy situation for him, he was having some bad luck that he hadn't expected. "But Sir, look at him! If you continue to let him in here, the quality of this elite building will decline and be ruined! He'll only bring bad luck!" Tina didn't want her lies ex
"Damn Julius!" cursed Ron as he kicked the gravel on the side of the road. The passing vehicles' noise and the air's heat made his irritation grow. Remembering Julius' face when he and Tina had been thrown out in disgrace made his hands clench into fists. Anger overcame him with a raging breath. He wanted to punch Julius and stomp him into begging for mercy! "We have to get back at that rat, Ron! I won't take it!" Tina shouted as she stomped through the smoke-filled streets. She waved her hands in front of her face to block out the fumes. When she was annoyed, car horns being honked impatiently annoyed her. Moreover, the sun seemed to be shining overhead. "Yes, we have to get back at him! Damn, every time I think of his lowly face I want to beat that poor guy with both hands!" Ron was still on a roll. Until a call on Ron's cell phone made him stop at the side of the road. The man stared with furrowed brows as the number from his bank popped up. "Hello?" he greeted with a raised
That morning, Julius called Jeff in to see him. The man, who had just finished breakfast, was sitting sipping tea while waiting for Jeff, his trusted servant.Not long after, the man entered and bowed to salute and greet, "Good morning, Mr. Julius. Did you enjoy the breakfast menu?" Jeff asked. The man ensured that Julius was satisfied with his chosen menu.Julius straightened up, crossed his legs, and stared coldly at Jeff, who had not yet straightened up. He certainly knew the reason why the master was acting this way towards him. It must be because of the service error that happened yesterday morning."I apologize for Sam's slowness in serving you. Yesterday's incident must have bothered you a lot." Jeff hadn't finished speaking, and the man paused his sentence momentarily."He wasn't quick enough to deal with the problem, and deserves to be punished. Master-" Before Jeff could finish, Julius cut him off."That's not necessary, Jeff." Julius spoke firmly, his eyes looking disintere
Armed with the luxury car he had chosen from the VVIP basement, Julius drove out of his luxurious penthouse. The car sped through the crowded streets on a busy morning. It seemed to shine among the other vehicles that filled the streets.It didn't take long before Julius arrived at his destination. A simple eatery is on the side of the road with some small trees. And Julius immediately parked his car quite far away. The man entered and looked around. His eyes found a man sitting at the end, who stood up and waved."Uncle Thony?" greeted Julius kindly. The man sat down in front of the older man he called Thony. They exchanged high-fives, and Uncle Thony immediately offered Julius a drink. The man looked so happy because he had not seen the son of his best friend for so long."Oh my, Julius! How long has it been since we've seen each other?" The slightly chubby man smiled again, revealing the wrinkles on his cheekbones. Some of his hair was already graying, with a thin beard and dull ey
Julius ran over and caught Thony's body on the sidewalk. Concerned, Julius asked, "Is Uncle okay?" Especially when he saw the bruise on Thony's hand, caused by rubbing against the rough surface of the sidewalk.Thony, of course, didn't answer, he just stayed silent with a pale face and a cold body. He didn't even seem to hear what Julius was asking him. The man looked dazed, even his shoulders shook unconsciously."Uncle?"Julius waved a hand before Thony, and shook his shoulders for a while. Thony blinked, and was surprised by Julius' presence. The man even backed away while dragging himself away. His face looked panicked and even paler.Thony's eyes widened, "Julius, why are you here? What are you doing? Go away!" Thony pleaded in a frightened tone. The man looked so worried that his eyebrows knitted together. His eyes glanced around, the panic on his face unconcealable.Thony didn't want Julius here, so he pushed Julius' chest aside, "Get out of here, Julius. You can't be here." Ye
Upon hearing Julius' statement, Thony immediately grabbed Julius and turned him around to face him. With a panicked look, Thony said, "Julius, don't act stupidly! Uncle knows how you live, don't be like this."It was still evident in Thony's mind how Julius endured the insults and abuse he didn't deserve. In fact, the Cellen family rationed his expenses, demonizing him in public. Julius never got justice, he was treated as he pleased.Julius frowned, "Uncle doesn't know how I live. And I don't need your money right now." Julius responded in a low voice, because he respected Uncle Thony.But Thony still refused Julius, even more loudly and firmly. His body was still weak, but he really didn't want Julius to get into trouble of his own making."Why are you so stubborn? Leave, because it's the best choice." But unfortunately, Thony's wish was opposed by Julius.Julius now chuckled, "I'm not leaving, Uncle. You're wrong if you think this is the best option. I'm not a loser who would run a
Julius quickly grabbed his cell phone and transferred an ounce of money to Ed. Thony, who saw it, immediately pulled Julius' hand away.Thony's eyes widened, incredulous, "Julius, where did you get all this money? One hundred thousand dollars is not a small amount."Julius smiled a little, the man shook his head and removed Thony's hand from his. "My life has changed a lot, Uncle. It's no big deal."And now, the money had changed hands with Ed. The man immediately checked his bank account with a cheeky smile. He didn't care about Thony, who now looked worried for Julius."Julius, you know how you are. It's not company money, right?" Thony confirmed once again. He only knew that Julius was living with the Cullen family. He couldn't have that kind of money, even though Julius was clever and industrious.Julius shook his head again, "It's not company money. You don't need to be afraid." Julius calmed Thony, who was still looking at him worriedly."But the amount is huge. There's no way I
"It's mine, Uncle." Julius answered Thony's question briefly. He immediately started his car to leave the area where they had eaten earlier."No kidding. Where did you get all this from? You must be lying to uncle," Thony guessed while scratching his temple. The thing was, Thony even knew that Julius wasn't being paid by Noel. Let alone a salary, he wasn't even given enough time off.Julius chuckled, "No Uncle, I'm not joking at all. Why would I lie?"But apparently, Thony still didn't believe that. With a confused look, Thony asked again, "Is this not your wife's car? Are you married to Bella?" That was the only possibility. This was because Bella belonged to a prominent family after her company skyrocketed. Yes, even if it was done by using Julius.Julius shook his head in disbelief if his uncle still thought he was related to the Cullen family. "Of course not. This is totally mine." Julius even managed an amused smile. Thinking about how Thony had no idea what he had been up to lat
