"Sir," Lucien hurriedly called the moment Julian stepped out of the hotel.
"Mr. Brown," Julian turned around to meet Lucien who was now panting as though he had just run a marathon.
"First, I would like to apologize again for what happened back there, it was as a result of my poor management," Lucien bowed slightly, apologizing to Julian.
"Nah, it's all fine, I don't really hold it against you," Julian answered, shaking his head.
Lucien breathed in a sigh of relief hearing Julian's words. It was as though he had just been granted amnesty when he heard that. That was just too awesome and he didn't even know what to say.
"How's your father, has he woken up?" Julian suddenly asked, pulling Lucien out of his thoughts.
"He hasn't woken up yet when I left the hospital," Lucien replied, his face going red in embarrassment remembering how he had treated Julian.
"He'll wake up soon, you should head back and have a look," Julian chuckled and turned around to leave.
There was no need to stay here any more. He had a lot to do, so he couldn't say anything and started talking to Lucien.
"Remember to tell your father not to engage in any strenuous activity just yet," Julian chuckled as he left.
"Don't worry, he'll understand once you tell him that," Julian added, his figure disappearing into the distance.
Lucien sighed and watched as Julian walked away. At first, he wanted to stop the latter and invite him for maybe lunch or something.
But after thinking about it, he realized there was no need for that. Julian has given him a lot of face by not taking what had happened at the hospital into account.
If he tried to invite him over for lunch or anything, his intentions might be misinterpreted, and that was the last thing he wanted.
To have a problem with Julian.
"If fate permits, then, we'll meet again," Lucien sighed and turned around walking back into the bank, his eyes radiating with a cold light.
It was time to teach that fool, Jude a lesson. He just couldn't understand why he didn't try to verify the situation first before taking action.
Julian on the other hand seemed very happy as he whistled. Now, he has finally divorced his cheating wife.
Not only that, he had one billion.
What was he going to do with it? He had never had such a large amount of money before , so he felt a little bit confused and just didn't know what to do with it.
He would have to settle down and think clearly about it. Now that he had the money and the skills, it would be nice if he had a clinic, but at the same time it was dangerous.
It wouldn't be easy to get the certifications and all. Besides, he had always dreamt of having a business, so now was the best time to pick.
And if he was going to pick, he was going to have to think well about it. He couldn't rush it.
"Jump down!"
"Yes, we won't leave here until you either jump down or have paid all of our salaries!"
"You deceptive woman, you'd either go to Hades yourself or we'll send you there with our hands!"
A loud yell flowed into Julian's ears, forcing him to stop in his tracks.
Looking around, he noticed a crowd, gathered not too far from him pointing and yelling at a figure who was standing on the top of a building looking like she wanted to commit suicide.
And not only did the crowd not even try to stop her, they yelled angrily at the figure, stating they would kill her themselves if she didn't jump.
Julian frowned slightly and moved closer to watch the scene before the police arrived.
Getting closer, his expression changed slightly as he saw who it was.
Wasn't that the CEO of Flow&Glow, a popular sink care company in Silverlake.
Though the company was just a small company, it had been on the rise recently and Julian would buy Lyra's monthly Sink care from them.
The CEO was a young capable woman, yet, she was standing on the roof wanting to end her life.
And her crowds were not even trying to make matters better. They were yelling at her to either kill herself or they would kill her.
"Bro, what's happening here?" Julian tapped one of the onlookers as he asked.
"Don't you know," The onlooker replied, staring at Julian like he was some kind of Alien for not knowing what was happening.
"That woman's company's skin care products are not good at all. Most of the customers who used her products have their skins either burnt, or now suffer some kind of skin allergy all because of her latest product," The man explained.
"And because of that, her company suffered losses. As a result, she was not able to pay both her employees and also couldn't compensate those that suffered due to her products,"
"Her company is already bankrupt, and banks are already on her neck,"
"So she has three options, either pay off everyone, or go to jail, or kill and send herself to the underworld."
"And it's obvious which she chose," The man explained, making Julian's face dark.
"You'd better jump now, else I'll come and push you off myself!" Someone from the crowd yelled and the others nodded in agreement stating they would push her off.
"No I can't let this happen," Julian muttered, shaking his head.
Though he didn't know the CEO personally, with the way she was, he was sure something must have gone wrong.
Thinking like this, he dashed into the building and headed straight to the roof, hoping to reach before she jumped as it looked like she was about to jump.
Soon, Julian arrived at the top.
Getting there, he saw the lady who was already at the far end, preparing to Jump.
"No, don't!" Julian roared and dashed towards the lady, jumping in an attempt to catch the lady who had already jumped off the building.

An invitation
Julian stared at the man and couldn't seem to grasp what he might be insinuating. If he could remember correctly, today was the first time he was coming across anyone from the Preston family. In fact, he never knew such a family existed. He wasn’t staying in this city and also wasn’t someone interested in a family’s history and background. “Might be a mistake. I am sure that this is the first time we are meeting each other.” Julain said casually with a smile. “Honey, do you know him from somewhere?” Fenna turned to look at Dalton, searching his face, which had a puzzled look on it. “Uhmmm,” Dalton stuttered, finding it difficult to decide. He had definitely met someone who looked like Julian; however, that person was quite older. It didn’t make sense that he was aging backwards, right? “What’s your last name?” He could only ask instead. “Eddleman,” Julian replied, curious to know where it would lead to. “Ahh, forget it. I might be mistaking you for someone else.” He waved the
We have met before?
“Dad, Fenna here tried to frame Mom for poisoning Owen. I am only trying to make her confess, that’s all.” Drake said proudly and deliberately took a glance at Fenna, hinting at the kind of trouble she had brought up herself. Everyone was, in fact, pleased that Dalton was back. As the head of the family, he could pass judgment and even banish a family member. Every power still rested in his hand until he decided to pass it on. Dalton frowned when he heard this. The place had become so silent with just his footsteps echoing as he began to trot towards them. Hurriedly, Helen wanted to speak. “Honey…” However, Dalton lifted his hand, cutting her off even before she could complete her sentence. His gaze was fixed on Fenna all along; the tears streaming down her cheeks touched his heart, and he proceeded to ask after pulling the smoke pipe from his lips. “What happened?” He asked calmly. Everyone immediately frowned, including Helen. She thought he would listen to her straight away
I asked a fucking question
An intense fight was about to break out. Waves had gushed around, flipping the couch ahead while some family members were almost blown off their feet. It happened so fast before anyone could even react, even though they had anticipated it. “Wait!” However, Fenna suddenly yelled in the nick of time, just when Tiger's sword had almost struck Scarface. Even though he had taken a stance, ready to tank the move, from how explosive and deadly it was, it was evident that the blow would kill him instantly. Tiger quickly halted the attack; however, the edge of the sword was so close to splitting Scarface's head in two. A few cuts had been inflicted on his face with blood pouring over even though the attack hadn’t struck deeply yet. Not only had Tiger concentrated so much of his Qi into his sword, but he also had the intention to kill Scarface on the spot. She just couldn’t allow him to kill Scarface just because of her. The man didn’t deserve to die just like that even though he was read
The past is the past
Fenna never expected such a question, and what was more, aside from the witnesses, she had no proof to back up her claim. The infirmary didn’t have any cameras installed, which was why Helen had been so bold to do what she did. Fenna bit her lower lip in frustration when she noticed that, actually, the other family members had gathered to look. That was precisely why Helen said that, so she could save herself and, at the turn, make Fenna seem like the troublesome one. “It seems you don’t have proof.” Helen chided when she saw the darkened look on Fenna's face. “Tch! How bold and thick-skinned. You are pointing fingers, yet you don’t even have proof? Are you looking down on us or what?” Drake grunted, his fist tightening. “You have always wanted to kick us out of this family when we haven't done anything to you.” He added, when a thought suddenly popped into his head. “I think I know what’s going on here!” He suddenly said loudly for everyone to hear. “Me too.” Chloe also stood
Put on an act
Meanwhile, in the massive living room within the mansion. Helen was seated on the couch between her kids. On her right was Drake, while on the left was Chloe. They had a keen resemblance to Helen and were very good-looking, even comparable to movie stars on TV. The trio seemed to be invested in a video playing on the phone Helen was holding. Helen had found the video very funny, so she called them over to come take a look. “Hahaha, what a loser. I was expecting much of him, though.” Drake laughed out loudly at a scene in the video that didn’t turn out to be the way he was expecting. As for Chloe, she looked a bit bored. She would have preferred to watch Korean dramas instead. She had the urge to voice out her discontent but the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard coming from a hallway. However, the trio wasn't too concerned about that until the person showed up. It was Fenna, and behind her was Scarface with a solemn expression on his face. “Hellen! How dare you try
You saved my son?
Bang! Mrs. Fenna barged into the infirmary in a panic. She had been praying to the heavens to ensure she wouldn’t come to meet the worst-case scenario ever. But then, the first thing she caught was Scarface having a conversation with Randy, both of them having smiles on their faces while Julian was seated beside the lady, seemingly treating her legs with some techniques. In summary, the tension in the air was so calm, and soothing that it didn’t feel like anything bad had happened or that such a villainous woman like Helen had actually come here before. She began to doubt if what Callum told her was true; however, what reason did she have to doubt him now? He wasn’t someone who would lie to her when he knew the kind of mental pressure it would cost her. “You are back?” Julian said with a smile as he looked at her. He could already get a hint that she knew what had happened here. Someone must have told her indeed. “Your son is fine.” He added, and only then did she breathe a s
