"I knew you still loved me," Lyra rushed towards Julian wanting to hug him, but was stopped by his outstretched hands.
The onlookers watched on, wondering what Julian was about to do. They had seen how Lyra had dismissed and insulted him.
They couldn't help but insult him silently seeing he asked to let her go, wondering if he was a wimp.
"What's wrong Julian, why did you ask me to stop?" Lyra asked, looking rather confused.
"Didn't you ask them to stop because you didn't want to see me hurt and want me to come hug you so we can go home and have a good time, live happily for the rest of our lives?" Lyra continued, blinking as she stared at Julian.
"You're speaking about love, Lyra, don't you find that iconic, huh?" Julian mused as he chuckled.
"I..." Lyra stuttered, seemingly rather confused, panic flashed through her face.
Julian was now acquainted with the Brown family and was even able to make the head of the Brown family treat him with respect.
This was even more powerful than Logan. So there was no way she was going to let this go. Besides, they were still legally married, she was yet to sign her part of the divorce.
"But you asked them to let me go," Lyra tried to argue, her voice weak,
"That means you still love me right?" She added, rushing towards Julian and holding his hands.
"Love you?" Julian sneered, pulling his hands away from Lyra's, shoving her away roughly.
"Julian, you said you would love me forever. You said you'd always be by my side," Lyra panicked, tears welled up in her eyes.
"Are you deserving of that huh?" Julian scoffed, his eyes cold, his voice held a hint of melancholy.
"But...."
"But my love is worth nothing. My love can't even buy you a hand bag or a diamond ring, so why stress yourself with useless things such as love," Julian interrupted Lyra and turned Lucien.
"If I may, there's a document on the floor just right outside, could I ask one of your men to retrieve it on my behalf," Julian requested.
"Sure, why not," Lucien agreed readily and signalled to one of his guards who rushed out to retrieve the documents.
"Here sir," The guard handed the divorce papers, Lyra had left outside.
"Thank you," Julian collected it and turned back to Lyra.
"I've signed my part, sign yours and get the heck out of my face," Julian commanded, a glint flashed in his eyes.
He knew damn too well that if it were not because he had Lucien's favour, he wouldn't be here at the moment.
She wouldn't even have looked at him for a second. She was the same person who watched coldly while Logan's guards broke his bone.
Yet, she was talking about love.
He couldn't be happier that all of these had happened before he awakened this knowledge. Else, with the way Lyra was, he was sure she was going to be his downfall, sooner or later.
There were no two doubts about this. Thinking like this, Julian heaved a sigh of relief.
There was no way he was going to take even a second look at her. He was disgusted to even do so.
"But..."
"We've got nothing to talk about, sign it and get the fuck out of my face, you disgusts me," Julian growled and turned around, ignoring Lyra, his voice void of emotions.
"Julian," Lyra screamed, ignoring the papers on the floor, wanting to rush towards Julian but was stopped coldly by Lucien's guards.
"Get her to sign it and throw her out," Lucien commanded and then rushed towards Julian. After all, this bank was his family's property, the latter had come here to cash out the money he had given him and yet he was humiliated.
He needed to make sure to appease the latter, maybe, at least he was going to be satisfied with whatever he was going to do.
"Sir..."
"Ohh yeah, I forgot to mention it," Julian interrupted Lucien who was about to say something.
"Your Manager fired the helpless cashier who wanted to cash out the money,"
Hearing this, Lucien swallowed and he felt his body weak. What kind of dumb subordinate did he have?
He didn't even try to call to check in with him. Neither did he try to verify the issue. He just took one random person's words and decided to act on it.
"Jude, pack your things and get out of my face," Lucien ordered, half yelling.
"Sir..."
"You're fired," He added again,
"But..."
"Throw him out," He instructed and immediately, the guards sprang to action, grabbing Jude.
"I'm sorry for what just happened," Lucien turned to the cashier who was frozen in fear and apologized.
"The Brown family would be responsible for what had just happened and we are willing to pay any form of compensation."
""No..no it's fine," The cashier hurriedly shook her head as she stuttered.
It would be greedy of her to demand anything. She was lucky she didn't even lose her job.
"Also, as the head of the Brown family, I'm announcing that you're now the new manager of the bank," Lucien suddenly announced..
"Huh?" The cashier froze, panic flashed across her face.
"Sir..".
"You can do it," Lucien interrupted the cashier, refusing to listen to what she had to say.
"Congratulations on the promotion," Julian chuckled, stretching his hands for a handshake.
"Yes?" The cashier swallowed her saliva, not knowing how to respond, and could just nod.
"Can I still have my money cashed out?" Julian chuckled as he asked.
"Yes..yes sir..sir..." She stuttered, rushing back to her seat and stated the process, while Lucien handed her the card.
A few minutes later, the cashier was done transferring the money into Julian's account.
"Thank you very much for your services," Julian thanked the cashier and prepared to leave the bank.
Seeing this, Lucien signalled to his men to take care of things while he hurriedly followed Julian out of the bank.

No, don't
"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 her

Let her go!
"Mr. Brown here you are," Jude hurried towards Lucien with a wide smile."Jude what's happening here?" Lucien frowned slightly, his eyes darting around, wondering what was happening."Sir we caught the thief who stole from you," Jude replied, a smug smile plastered on his face as he spoke."A thief?" Lucien's expression darkened hearing this, his eyes darting around."Stole it from me?" He muttered again, his brows narrowing into a thin line."Yes sir," Jude who heard this nodded hurriedly and stretched out the card Logan had given him."Isn't that the reason you were coming to look for me sir? Cause someone stole from you, so you want me to be on the look out and not let the person cash out the money," Jude continued giving Lucien the card."But you need to worry not sir, as I've already caught the person, also I fired the cashier who was stupid enough to cash the money out,""I wouldn't have been able to do all of that if it were not for this young man who exposed the thief," Jude c
In broad daylight
"Huh?"Everyone in the vicinity froze hearing what Logan said. Then they stared at Julian while also stepping backwards, wondering if something was wrong with his brain.He dared to steal from the Browns? Did he even know what he was doing? Was he in his right senses? That didn't seem to be the case, else, he wouldn't have stolen from the Browns under any circumstances."Julian, you're so disgusting, how dare you steal? I'm disappointed in you," Lyra shook her head, disappointment written all over her face."Disappointed in me?" Julian mused, staring at Lyra, mockery, disdain written all over his face."Do we have anything to do with each other, or are you just being so delusional?""Besides, I didn't steal it, one of the Browns gave it to me," Julian added with a shrug."Impossible!" Logan countered almost immediately, staring at the card in his hands."You must have stolen this card, there's no way the Browns would ever give away this card," Logan sneered, glaring at Julian."This i
From where?
Julian on the other hand whistled as he stepped out of his apartment nodding slightly to the melody he was whistling.After leaving the hospital, he headed directly to his apartment to change his clothes.Luckily, his cheating wife was not at home. This gave him a lot of chances to do what he wanted.He was going to move out. But after looking around, he realized he didn't own more than four pairs of clothes.
