The Invisible Heir Contemplating the inheritance
After receiving the apology from Gretta, Julian stood alone, feeling countless eyes looking at him. Well, the people were intrigued, trying to understand how he came to be associated with Scarlet. “Wow, lucky guy,” someone remarked enviously. “Having Scarlett in your corner must feel amazing.” “Loser,” another voice muttered bitterly. “Couldn't even defend himself, had to rely on Ms. Scarlett to fight his battles.” The comments, especially from the men who secretly desired Scarlet, carried a mix of envy and disdain. Scarlett was known to keep her distance, a fortress impossible to breach for most. The idea that someone like Julian dressed modestly, with no apparent influence, had managed to get so close to her stirred jealousy among the onlookers. To them, it was baffling and infuriating. “Look at him, standing there all smug. Does he really think he’s something special just because she stepped in?” a woman murmured, her voice conveying disrespect. “Must be nice,” one envious voic

He opened the door and found Scarlett already there, standing by the wardrobe as she was picking out something to wear. She turned at the sound of the door opening, her gaze turning cold as she saw him in the doorway. Her eyebrow raised in clear displeasure. “What exactly do you think you’re doing?” she asked, her voice cold. The fact that he just pushed the door opening without knocking was enough to send a wave of irritation through her. Julian, taken aback, hesitated. He hadn’t expected her to be here yet. The last he checked, she was having a conversation outside. “Sorry, didn’t know you were already here,” he replied, his tone apologetic. Her glare sharpened, clearly not buying his excuse. What a poor excuse he had, “Of course I’m here. What do you mean? This is my room, and you’re not allowed in it.” “Well, we are married, so…” Julian trailed off, his words faltering slightly, but he tried again. “Can’t I share the same room with you?” A flash of disgust crossed her face. Sh

There were also other two voices, which Julian was quick to tell that it was Tessa and her boyfriend Damien. He had hoped to avoid running into anyone from work, especially Brandon or Claire, but fate had other plans. Keeping his back to them, he tried to pay quickly and slip out unnoticed. His plan failed; however, he was instantly spotted by Claire. “Well, well, look who we have here,” she said mockingly. With a resigned sigh, Julian turned around. Standing before him was Claire, his ex, with her new boyfriend, Brandon, her arm looped around his. Next to them was Tessa, an old colleague of Julian’s and Claire’s friend, holding hands with a tall, confident-looking man whom Julian recognized as one of Brandon’s former employees. He had recently left the company for a better-paying job. "Didn’t expect to see you here," Claire said, her eyes scanning Julian from head to toe with a smug look. She noticed a shopping bag in his hands, a clear indication he was here to buy clothes

The insult landed hard, and the air was tense between them. Brandon’s face twisted with anger. Who did this loser think he was talking to? “You've got some nerve you pathetic broke loser. Apologize now, or you’ll regret it!” Brandon snapped, his voice rising. “Better yet, I want you to apologize to everyone here.” He stepped closer, his sneer deepening. “Do it, or you’ll pay for your arrogance.” Claire wore a smug expression as she toyed with her hair, her fingers brushing it in a deliberately sensual way. Her other hand rested lightly on Brandon’s shoulder as she spoke, her tone dripping with mock concern. “Do as he says, Julian. You know how wealthy Brandon is. He’ll ruin your life.” Brandon smirked, his confidence growing with Claire’s support. He began to circle Julian like a predator sizing up its prey, his voice growing louder and more menacing with each word. “I’ll make sure you pay dearly for this,” he said. “No company in this city will hire you. Hell, no one will even g

Brandon, clearly shocked, tried to regain his footing, but Julian was already on the offensive. He moved swiftly, landing a flurry of punches and kicks that forced Brandon to go on the defensive. His confidence slipping away with each hit. Claire’s face scowled with disbelief. She thought Brandon was the martial artist here and Julian didn't know how to fight. ‘Is this real?” another comment appeared. “I thought Brandon was supposed to be a fighter?’ Brandon finally tried to throw another punch, but Julian sidestepped and swept his legs out from under him. With a loud thud, Brandon hit the ground, gasping for air. Julian didn't stop, seizing the opportunity that Brandon was down to beat him down. The chat exploded as they witnessed everything. ‘NO WAY! Brandon’s down?!’ ‘Julian is kicking his ass! This is wild!’ ‘Bro, Brandon’s got nothing. Julian’s owning him.’ Claire’s grip on her phone tightened in anger, as she watched Brandon struggle to get back up. The satisfact

Julian didn’t have to wait long. As he sat back in the chair, the soft ding of the elevator doors opening caught his attention. He looked and saw Vera stepping out. She looked very stunning, elegant, yet approachable, a blend of confidence and friendliness that seemed effortless. She wore a blue female blazer that fit her well, over a white blouse, pairing it with blue trousers and sleek black heels. Her hair was neatly styled in a bun, with a few loose strands framing her face. Her eyes landing on Julian, her face lit up with a smile that was as genuine as it was welcoming. She made her way over with an ease, her heels clicking softly against the polished floor. "Julian!" she greeted him, her voice was cheerful as she extended her hand. "I’m so glad you could make it. Welcome to Prescott and Lawson." Julian stood up, offering a nod of acknowledgement before shaking her hand,"Thanks, Vera," he replied casuallyl,"I’ve been looking forward to our meeting." "I’m glad to hear that

Julian looked at her and then at the leather folder wondering what was inside it. Before he could ask, she already started explaining “These are your accounts,” Vera said, her tone matter of fact. “Everything is set up under your name, including the private accounts and international holdings. You'll find the details inside. Access to a vast network of your assets, not just in liquid funds but in investments, properties, and secured resources.”Julian nodded, opening the folder with a steady hand. As his eyes scanned the documents, his mind immediately began processing the figures. The numbers were staggering, beyond anything he had expected. Billions, even hundreds of billions, in various accounts, investments, and assets. He quickly took note of the amounts listed, though the wealth itself didn’t shock him. He had always known that the business empire his parents run was worth a lot. What struck him, however, was the sheer scale of it, how much power and influence lay at his finge

Julian also stopped and urned to face Vera, wondering why she stopped all of a sudden. Just then, three figures approached them. Julian darted his gaze toward them, immediately recognizing the old man, Mr. Bannerman, who walked ahead with a familiar air of authority.“I have to introduce you to some people.” She said, “I'm sure you recognize Mr. Bannerman,” Vera said casually, her tone light.“I would be offended if he didn’t remember me,” Mr. Bannerman joked with a warm smile.Julian nodded, returning the smile. “Of course, I remember him.”“I’m glad you finally decided to claim the inheritance,” Mr. Bannerman continued. “I know it’s what your whole family wanted. May they rest in peace.”Julian nodded in response.Vera turned to the two women who stood next to Mr. Bannerman, and Julian’s eyes quickly scanned them. Both women were dressed in dark, sleek attire each exuding a quiet confidence that commanded attention.The first woman, with raven-black hair and piercing hazel eyes, e

The Invisible Heir Angry boyfriend
“What?” Claudia was taken aback. He barged into her room, and it was somehow her fault? How was being walked in on like that supposed to be a compliment? She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.”Mom….”Isadora ignored her daughter as she turned back to Julian. “Anyway, it’s so nice to meet you,” she added with a smile.Julian, however, couldn’t shake the feeling that it was all an act. And the fact that she so easily blamed her daughter, when it was clearly his fault for walking into a room without knocking, only made him more uneasy.Julian wasn’t fooled. He already knew why Isadora’s attitude had flipped so quickly, his last name. People like her were always eager to befriend someone like him. After all, he was the richest young man now, even if most people didn’t know it yet. So, her sudden shift didn’t surprise him at all, she was trying to befriend him for the benefits.“Nice to meet you too,” Julian replied casually, though his focus quickly shifted to Claudia, who was yelling
The Invisible Heir The last Blackwood
His heartbeat quickened, and he instinctively averted his gaze away from the woman, internally scolding himself.‘Stupid. What did you think? Why the hell did you just walk into her room without knocking?’Julian was about to explain himself and apologize, but before he could even get a word out, the woman’s scream pierced through the room.“Help! Help! There’s a man in my room!”Great. Now she was calling for help and accusing him of having bad intentions. A frown tugged on Julian's lips as heard her. But could he blame her? He was the one who had walked into her room, without knocking.Her voice was sharp and panic striken, echoing off the walls. She quickly grabbed the nearest thing to her that she could find: a decorative vase, and held it up defensively, her hands shaking as she pointed it at him.Julian immediately raised his hands in surrender, taking a step back to show her that he had no bad intentions towards her, “Wait….stop, I'm….” He tried to explain to her but before he
The Invisible Heir Suspicion
“I’m Elysia by the way,” the woman finally introduced herself as she led Julian towards the grand living room, its high ceilings and tall windows giving it an open, airy feel.Julian stopped looking around as he swiveled her gaze to meet her eyes, and then he replied, “Nice to meet you. I’m Julian.”Elysia gave him a slight nod. She continued leading him further into the house, her heels clicking softly against the shiny marble floors. Julian’s eyes darted around, taking in the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings. He looked up at the luxurious chandelier still hanging from the ceiling, its crystals shining under the light, but the walls had been repainted, and the furniture seemed to have been replaced. He hadn't been here in more than a decade, and he never thought he would be back at all.“It must be strange being back after all these years,” Elysia said, her voice disturbing the silence“You could say that.” He replied without looking at her.Elysia gave him a thoughtful and em
The Invisible Heir A visit back home
“We need to talk,” Scarlett said, her tone sharp and demanding as she watched Julian scroll through his phone. After watching him invest so much money on a bet, too many questions were in her mind, questions that needed answers. Julian glanced up briefly, unfazed, then returned his attention to his phone. “Later,” he muttered, his voice dismissive, too occupied with something.Scarlett’s eyes narrowed in annoyance. She didn't like it when people dismissed her. To her it sounded like he was trying to avoid the conversation about where he got the money from.“No, Julian. We’re talking now….”She tried to command him as usual, but before she could finish, Julian was already walking away, completely ignoring her. She gritted her teeth, thinking of going after him, but ultimately she chose not to.Once Julian was outside the building, he hailed a taxi and instructed the driver to taken him to his old home, the one he had lived in before his family passed. He knew it was a bad idea, but hi
The Invisible Heir Public humiliation
Amara and Victor didn't answer Julian. It wasn't like they had anything to say to him. The room was envelope in silence.Victor’s hand hovered over Scarlett’s computer screen, his jaw tightening as his eyes widened in shock. Neither he, Amara, nor Scarlett said a word, but the disbelief on their faces spoke more than their words could.Everyone was still trying to wrap their heads around what had just happened. They had expected Julian to fail, to back out at the last second, but he didn’t. He proved them wrong, and he did it in a way.It was now clear as day to them, that Julian Blackwood wasn’t the loser they thought he was. If he could toss around five hundred million dollars without breaking a sweat, then he wasn’t just some nobody. Victor and Amara no longer acted smug. Now that they knew who Julian really was, their confidence was gone, replaced by humiliation. They had mocked and ridiculed him, and now, they were the fools. Victor fidgeted, his hands clenched, while Amara’s g
The Invisible Heir Master or fool?
Scarlett couldn't help but question Julian's intelligence at this point. It was one thing to bluff, but to claim something so outrageous as having a hundred million dollars was beyond absurd. Her eyes lingered on him, silently telling him to stop embarrassing himself, however he wasn't paying attention to her. ‘Fucking idiot! Does he even realize how stupid he sounds right now?’ Scarlet thought. She gritted her teeth, she wanted to scream at Julian in anger. She feared that Julian was going to embarrass himself, and in extension her too, since she was his wife. “Julian, stop making a fool out of yourself.” She couldn't take it anymore, and she had to tell him right then and there in front of everyone, “We all know you don’t have that kind of money, so just drop it.” She had on, her usual no nonsense stare, the one that usually got people to shut up and listen.But not Julian, he ignored her without a second thought, turning to Victor and Amara. “You know what?I changed my mind, ma
The Invisible Heir Excessive amount
Him and Scarlett were just putting on a facade of husband and wife and none of them would care what the other did, but still, Amara's words weren't just insulting, they were also disgusting. She was suggesting that even if they were real husband and wife, Scarlett should go out and cheat on him for business.His eyes narrowed, dangerous and cold, but he stayed seated, his gaze fixed on Amara and Victor, like they were one wrong word away from regret. “Careful, both of you. I think you should watch your words!” he said quietly, his voice dead calm, though every word carried a threat.Amara snorted, tossing her hair over her shoulder like his words were nothing but background noise. “What? Did I hit a nerve Julian?” Her smirk widened, her eyes showing a hint of malice. “You’re nothing but a joke, Julian. No matter how much you pretend, that won't change. If you were even half the man Nolan is, maybe you’d be able to help your wife's company. Hell, maybe we wouldn’t have to beg for inves
The Invisible Heir Charity Case
Scarlett looked up at her brother and cousin, who had barged into her office, screaming at her about Mr Seth’s decision to withdraw his investments from their company.But honestly, she couldn’t care less. She was glad that the creep had decided to withdraw his investments. It wasn’t like he was the only investor in the world.“Are you two done?” Her voice was calm and controlled, but a sharp edge of annoyance lay just beneath the surface. “Because if all you came here to do was panic, you’re wasting my time.”Amara scoffed at Scarlet's response, folding her arms. Although she wasn't surprised by her attitude. Scarlett was like this, prideful, stubborn, and always acting like she was untouchable. It got on Amara's nerves more than she cared to admit. ‘Freaking bitch.’ she thought to herself, however she wouldn't dare say that out loud.Victor stepped forward, irritation sharp in his gaze. And he had every right to be upset. Scarlett hadn’t just driven away a major investor,she did it
The Invisible Heir Seth's Threat's
Scarlet's expression hardened after she heard Seth's words. The audacity of this old man to threaten her, and trying to take advantage of the fact that he was an investor in the company, was infuriating. He was even more disgusting than she had thought.“If you’re done embarrassing yourself, Mr. Seth, I suggest you leave. My husband and I have more important things to do.” Her tone was like ice, sharp and cold. Seth’s face reddened his nostrils flaring. This wasn't the reaction he expected from Scarlett. He thought by threatening her she would reconsider the situation and give in, however he was wrong for thinking that. He shot one last venomous and hateful look at Julian, his fists clenched tight, but he didn’t say a word to Julian, instead he turned to Scarlett and said. "Fine. Since you seem so confident, I’ll withdraw all my investments. Let’s see how long you can last without me.” With that, he turned to leave but paused, eyes locking onto Julian with an icy sneer. Slowly,
