Jasmine glanced over her shoulder and saw Julian standing behind her. His eyes were locked on Damon and his friends, his expression that of no nonsense.

Julian had tried to stay out of it, letting Jasmine handle it herself.

But the moment that silver haired brat had the audacity to slap her, any thought of restraint vanished. His fists balled into fists, his eyes darkened, and an unsettling coldness settled over him. Seeing Jasmine go through it, reminded him of how he had always been treated like that in the past by people.

He wasn’t just stepping in to defend Jasmine, he was about to make sure these four pathetic fools understood that they’d picked the wrong time to mess with Jasmine.

Riley snorted when she saw him coming to Jasmine's rescue.“Who’s this? The bartender?” she said, curling her lips in mock amusement. “Oh, how cute. Are you two dating? Makes sense, two broke losers deserve each other.”

She quickly assumed he was just another nobody, in the same financial situation a

    Murmurs filled the bar, the air thick with disbelief. Most of the regulars had never seen Jasmine lose her cool like this. Her snapping outburst was unexpected, especially for those who had only known her as the calm, collected stunning bartender.Some patrons understood, having overheard the vile things Damon had said to her and all the bullying, but for others, the scene was too much. They shook their heads, some muttering about how she should’ve kept her composure. Others couldn’t deny, though, that Damon had gotten what he deserved.The group of Damon’s friends, still in disbelief, exchanged frantic glances. Riley, seething with rage, shot up from her seat and stormed around the table toward Jasmine. Her eyes blazed with fury, her footsteps sharp and deliberate as she went and shoved Jasmine away from Damon, who was still on the floor."You stupid bitch," Riley yelled at Jasmine, her voice sharp and cutting through the murmurs in the bar. She shoved her hard, making Jasmine stumbl

    Finally summoning the strength to rise, Damon yanked the shard of glass from his wound, blood streaking down his arm.His glare locked onto Jasmine, his eyes wild with barely restrained fury. Never did he think that a little nobody like her would have the guts to hit him with a bottle. Was she stupid or just desperate?Well, whatever it was, she’d just signed herself up for a lifetime of pain. “You just made the worst mistake of your life, Jasmine,” he growled, his voice low and sharp with dangerous intent.The tension in the room shifted. Some of the patrons, who had been watching the scene unfold, began whispering among themselves. They exchanged knowing glances, commenting on how Jasmine and Julian were as good as done for now.

That was unthinkable.To them, the fact that Damon was the son of a billi

  • The Invisible Heir   A Night to remember

    "Hello, is this Julian Blackwood?" a smooth, feminine voice inquired. Furrowing his brows, Julian Blackwood replied, "Yes, it is." Standing just outside the mansion’s front door, he paused and asked in a curious voice, "Who’s this?" The feminine and professional voice on the other end of the line, sounded relieved to hear his confirmation. "Hi, Master Julian, I'm Vera Turner. Our firm has been trying to reach you for a while now," the woman explained. "I'm calling to remind you that you don't have much time left to claim your inheritance. If you don't act soon, the government will step in and seize everything." Julian frowned, realizing who was calling him. "Oh, it's you people again. I thought I made it clear the last time that I have no interest in inheriting anything. Let the government take it." His frustration was understandable. He’d changed his number to avoid these persistent calls, yet they’d somehow managed to track him down again. "Master Blackwood," Vera continued, he

    Julian froze as he saw someone who looked like Claire disappear into the corridor with a man. His heart skipped a beat. Was it her? he wondered to himself. No, it couldn’t be. But that laugh was definitely hers. And the figure? No doubt about it. But what was she doing with that man she was with, walking hand in hand, like two people in love? Curious, Julian's feet moved before his mind could catch up, and he started moving towards the corridor, ignoring Gabe and everyone He walked through the corridor, hesitating as he wondered if perhaps he was mistaken and it was not Claire and his boss. The last thing he needed was to make a fool of himself, by badging in on people having a private moment. Deciding to confirm he followed the way they went. After walking on the opulent corridor, he turned a corner, and there it was the bathroom door. The door was slightly opened, and he could hear voices coming from inside. As Julian got closer, the voices became clearer. He recognize

    Julian stormed out of the building, the sound of their laughter fading behind him. The feeling of betrayal was sharp, the worst of all the emotions coursing through him. How could she do this? He had trusted her, believed she was different—someone who could see beyond his scars. But now, as he replayed her cold, indifferent expression, he wondered if any of it had ever been real. Had she always been this heartless, or had he simply been blind to the truth? He wished it were all just a dream, that he could wake up and find everything back to normal. But it wasn’t. Julian’s thoughts wandered back to the haunting emptiness he’d carried since he was a boy. From the moment he lost his family at seven, that void had never left him. For years, the only family he’d known was the butler who had taken him in. But even that was taken away, and after the butler’s death, Julian was left alone, sinking deeper into darkness. Then he met Claire, and for a brief time, she had changed everything.

  • The Invisible Heir   A night stand?

    Julian blinked open, for the first time since he passed out in the bar the previous night and he had no idea of what had happened after he passed out. His vision was hazy as he tried to make sense of his surroundings. To his surprise, he realized that he was lying in a large, plush bed, wrapped in crisp white sheets that felt soft against his skin. The room around him was bathed in soft morning light, streaming through the large and opulence windows. The decor was rich, with dark tones accented by elegant touches, creating a sense of luxury and comfort. Everything around this room screamed of luxury and elegance, it was nothing like his cramped apartment or anywhere he’d ever been before. Questions flooded Julian's mind: What was this place, and what was he doing here? How did he get here in the first place? “Damn, here comes the hangover, maybe drinking a dozen bottle's wasn't really a good idea.” Julian's head pained him as he tried to sit up, memories of the previous night

  • The Invisible Heir   No way out?

    The silence from the woman as she stared at him, was unsettling Julian. “I really have no idea, believe.” He said. The woman’s eyes narrowed, her voice cold. “You seriously have the nerve to stand there and pretend you don’t know what happened?” She sat up, wrapping the blanket around her shoulders. “Half-dressed in my bed. Do you just wander into random women’s rooms, or am I just the lucky one?” She didn't sound as angry as earlier, because she was starting to realize something. She suspected that she might be the one at fault here. Maybe she was the one who invited him, but with no memory of the night, she couldn’t shake the feeling that it could still be his fault. Julian clenched his jaw, frustration building. “Look, I don’t know what happened either. I was at a bar, had a few too many, and woke up here. That’s all I remember. I'm not at fault here.” He said. She raised an eyebrow, giving him a skeptical once-over. She wasn't as uncomfortable and enraged as she was initial

    Julian and Scarlett averted their gazes from each other at the same time, turning toward the door as it swung open. Julian’s heart skipped a beat as people stepped inside. Scarlett muttered under her breath, her demeanour shifting visibly. "This is bad. I’m so dead," she said, barely audible. This was what she had been trying to avoid when she told him to leave through the window. She didn't want her family to see him. A striking woman in her mid-thirties, with curly brunette hair and a sharp, disapproving gaze, stepped forward. Her eyes swept the room: Julian, dressed in shabby clothes, standing awkwardly, and Scarlett looking uncomfortable as if she had been caught red handed commiting a crime. The woman smirked coldly. “Wow, Scarlett. Bringing men to your room now? But really, did you have to bring a homeless guy?” Not appreciating the remark, Julian shot her a cold look. She had barely met him, and yet she was already calling him a homeless man. How could she judge him so quic

    The group of Jasmine's old classmates noticed her immediately they stepped into the bar. Riley, the girl in the middle, smirked and called out in a loud voice, her voice attracting everyone's attention. “Hey, Jasmine! Still working this useless job huh?” She asked, with a contemptuous smile on her lips."Guess some people really are meant to be nothing in life, and you baby girl is an example of that.”Julian frowned as he heard that. She had just arrived and the first thing she did was call out to Jasmine and insult her? It was clear to Julian what their intentions were, he had gone through the same before, almost all the time.Abel from the group let out a loud, mocking laugh. “Haha, some things never change, do they? Jasmine the leech.” he said continuing to laugh, shaking his head with a grin of pure condescension. “Why don't you get over here, we want to order.” The others snickered at Riley and Abel's jokes. Jasmine didn't want to go to them, however she was on the job, and sh

    Later that evening, Julian returned to his hotel, trying not to let the suspicion he felt toward Vera ruin his mood or excitement about his newfound wealth.He was a little exhausted already so without overthinking, he headed straight to bed.The following day, Julian allowed himself to fully immense in the luxury of the hotel. The soft bed the exquisite breakfast, and the calm, serene atmosphere felt like a world away from the life he had known just days ago. He spent most of the day savoring every moment, appreciating the peace and luxury that surrounded him.It was hard not to feel that he should cherish it while he could. Deep down, Julian knew that sooner or later, his life wouldn’t remain this peaceful. Now that he was the CEO of Blackwood Consortium, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something bad was just around the corner. The people responsible for his family’s murder were still out there, and there was a constant, gnawing fear that they might come for him too. He couldn’t

    Julian’s gaze intensified, his voice quieter but more forceful. He heard Spencer yet, he felt like his answers were not satisfying enough, “I’m not interested in vague answers, Spencer. I want the truth. I want to know why my family was murdered.” Spencer sighed, his expression determined,“I swear to you, that’s all I know. But if you’re serious about getting to the bottom of this, you should ask Mr. Bannerman or Vera. They know more than I do.” Julian gave a stiff nod, but his eyes never left Spencer. “Alright.” Spencer’s eyes darted around nervously before he leaned in slightly. “Be careful with Vera, though.” Julian’s brow furrowed. Why did he have to be careful around Vera? He was puzzled. “What do you mean by that?” He asked. Spencer looked around cautiously, as if double-checking they were alone. His posture shifted. Suddenly he was no longer exuding his usual authority, but rather a rare unease. “Listen, Master Julian, what I’m about to tell you, this stays between us. No o

    Nolan's face was pale with shock, but his mouth was still running, sounding so arrogant as usuall. He was still conviced Mr Spencer was mistaken,“Mr. Spencer, you’re making a mistake. This guy is just some….”Mr Spencer’s eyes narrowed, cutting him off. "Make this fool understand what happens to those who disrespect Mr. Blackwood."Without a moment’s hesitation, Spencer’s men stepped forward, giving Nolan the beating of his life. Outnumbered and unable to fight back, Nolan crumpled to the floor, his body barely able to protect itself from the relentless blows.The room was filled with the sound of fists connecting with flesh, and the tension in the air became suffocating. Everyone in the suite, including the Lancaster family, watched in stunned silence, their eyes wide in disbelief. Not even the fact that he was a Stormbone, could save Nolan this time. Even the Lancaster's who always pretended like Nolan was their favorite person in the world, didn't want to intervene in fear of them

    Scarlett, however, felt a nervous knot in her stomach as she watched Julian's oblivious defiance. “Julian, get the fuck out of here, you don't know what you're up against,” she commanded through clenched teeth. While she didn’t know Spencer personally, his reputation was legendary. He was ruthless, with deep ties to the Blackwood empire. Julian had no idea just how deep he was stepping into trouble.But Julian, as always, ignored her, his eyes locked on Spencer.Spencer walked over to Nolan, who pointed a finger at Julian with a sneer.“This bastard refuses to leave,” Nolan spat.Vivienne added, “Mr. Spencer, this is the man who’s been causing a scene all night. He has been behaving with no respect for anyone else.”With a nod, showing that he had heard the accusations, Spencer shifted his attention to Julian. His men followed suit, stepping forward with their bats casually over their shoulders. They surrounded Julian, closing in like wolves on their prey.“He's done for now.” Landon

    Julian and Scarlett both turned around to face the woman.Clarissa stepped forward, her expression a mask of cold fury. “You will not take another step with this man.” Her voice was commanding, each word razor-sharp. “He’s nothing but a parasite, using you to climb the social ladder. Can’t you see that?”Scarlett let out a soft sigh, her gaze steady. “Mother, stop.” Her tone was firm but controlled. “You don’t have to like Julian, but you don’t get to control my life.”Clarissa’s eyes narrowed dangerously, but before she could reply, Alistair joined her.“Can we get some security in here? This man needs to be thrown out,” Alistair roared, his voice echoing across the suite.Nolan stepped forward, pulling out his phone with a smug grin. “No need to trouble security. I’ll call the manager.” He looked Julian over with open contempt, his words dripping with venom. “He’s a good friend of my dad’s.
