The Revenge Of Julius Sabbath

Chapter Six: The Asset

Hearing what the man said, Julius quickly intervened. He knew that, though Mrs. Mona was rude to him, all she did was try to protect the bank by sending out a dirty-looking scumbag like him.

“No, that’s okay, Mr. Noah. Let her keep her job. She is pardoned this time,” Julius said calmly, like a master disallowing his senior student from punishing the younger one.

“Oh! If that’s what you want, sir, she is pardoned, of course." The man stammered and bowed once again, like a student acknowledging his master’s wishes.

“What?” Mrs. Mona thought as her eyes expressed maximum shock, like someone who had just witnessed an unexpected plot twist in a gripping movie.

“This dirty-looking guy has the power to make me not lose my job? He can actually control everything here. And my boss respects him very highly. Who is this guy, actually? Who are the Sabbath family?” Multiple thoughts conquered her mind at this moment, as she remained perplexed by what she just experienced.

Cutting the silence that was prevailing as Mrs. Mona could not believe her eyes, “Master Sabbath, please follow me to my office now, and you can claim your asset right away; we will also process your Black Golden Master Card,” the man said as he bowed even for the third time and left his right hand in the air, pointing in the direction of his office.

“Very well, Mr. Noah. Please lead the way,” Julius said calmly once more. His tone was as steady as that of a familiar friend, offering reassurance in challenging times. And with this, Mr. Noah led the way, just as Julius wanted.

Arriving at his office, nestled at the heart of Fortuna Elite Bank, Julius saw how Mr. Noah's desk was a polished, worn sheen, standing as the sturdy centerpiece adorned with neatly arranged documents and a sleek computer. Behind the desk, he also saw a leather chair, worn just enough to convey a sense of comfort. In the same manner, Julius noticed that the wall was adorned with framed achievements and a panoramic cityscape. Likewise, on the other side of the wall, a large TV screen took center stage, its expansive display radiating vibrant colors, bringing to life financial data, news updates, and dynamic visuals.

"Please sit, Master Sabbath." Mr. Noah invited Julius to the personal leather chair behind his desk while he took a stand.

"I insist, Mr. Noah. We can both go sit over there," said Julius as he pointed to the other side of Mr. Noah’s office.

On the other side of Mr. Noah’s office was a cozy sitting room, offering a retreat from the professional realm. Plush armchairs and a well-crafted coffee table formed an inviting ensemble, surrounded by tastefully chosen artwork that added a touch of sophistication.

"In that case, Master Sabbath, permit me to offer you a cup of coffee," Mr. Noah said happily as he took a bow once again.

"Of course, a cup of coffee sounds like a good idea to me," Julius replied, and he immediately went ahead to take his seat on the other side of the office while Mr. Noah gently picked up the telephone on his desk.

"Brew me a nice cup of coffee," Mr. Noah said on the phone gently.

"And listen attentively; no mistake, or you lose your job," he whispered, turning his mouth away as he intended Julius not to hear.

Quickly ending the call, Mr. Noah expanded his cheek into a smile once again and hence minded his steps like a student who intended not to do anything silly in the presence of his boss.

“I am going to bring the gadgets to you over there, sir, if you do not mind." Mr. Noah asked politely.

“That is fine, Mr. Noah. Please bring them, and we can make the transaction quick,” Julius answered. Thus, Mr. Noah quickly carried the sleek laptop and tablet on his desk.

Getting to the other side of his office, Mr. Noah, with his head bowed again, politely gave the tablet to Julius. “Everything I do on the laptop, you would be able to see from the tablet, sir,” he said, and thus began.

As he began, Julius watched from the tablet how Mr. Noah entered his name into the database with meticulous precision as each keystroke echoed a digital dance of information.

“Master Sabbath, please place your thumb on the tablet screen, as we need your fingerprint to access your information,” Mr. Noah said as he gently lifted his eyes from the laptop screen and peered a polite look at Julius.

Placing his thumb on the screen, as was told, Julius heard a chime sound that resonated like a soft melody, confirming the successful authentication of his identity.

“Congratulations, Master Sabbath. Eleven billion dollars worth of assets, two hundred two million dollars worth of cash, three gemstones worth five billion dollars each, and five luxurious fleets of cars, which included a Ferrari, a Lamborghini, a Bugatti, and two Lincoln Navigators, have been transferred to your name,” said Mr. Noah.

“All we have to do now is prepare your document and have you sign it. After that, you get the Black Golden Master Card, as we will begin the process of it right away,” added Mr. Noah.

“Thank you, Mr. Noah,” Julius said immediately with a calm voice as his appreciation flowed smoothly like a serene river.

*Tring tring* Suddenly, Mr. Noah’s telephone rang, and once he picked up,

“Sir, the coffee you requested is ready. Should I bring it in now?” asked a tiny female voice on the phone.

“Bring it in,” answered Mr. Noah. Almost immediately, the door to the office opened, and Julius saw a lady in a well-fitted blouse and knee-length skirt step into the office.

Her hair was neatly styled, and her makeup was subtle, accentuating her face. The comfortable yet elegant heels she wore clicked softly against the floor as she moved, conveying a sense of confidence.

Also, in her hands, Julius saw that she carried a steaming cup of coffee, the rich aroma mingling with the air as she approached.

“Here is your cup of coffee, sir,” the lady said as she gently placed it down on a glassy stand beside Julius. Hence, she bowed.
