JULIAN


I just finished purchasing Red's watch and I don't even know why I was so excited about what I did even though I won't be the one using the watch. My son's becoming a big guy, I can't help but think that he is growing up too fast.


I was walking to my car when I spotted a familiar face at the opposite side of the road and I would have just continued on my way if it wasn't Ini's younger brother punching the hell out of a guy about his age. I knew I was right about his anger the other day, this guy sure isn't that wise. What he is currently doing is something that could get him back to jail and this time, it would be even more difficult for his family to get him out.


Some people were watching without even trying to separate the fighting duo. I crossed the road and detached Praise from the other guy, with force of course. Now, the people present were murmuring and one sensible man also held the other guy who now looked so pumped up that you wouldn't believe he was the one being punched brutally a few seconds ago. Praise was trying to get out of my hold but I refuse to release him.


All this anger of his would definitely be beneficial in a boxing ring.


The other guy was shouting profanities and threats at him and all that was only aggravating Praise the more. Suddenly, they there was silence and I looked away from Praise to see the little crowd now staring in our direction only .


My face, damn!


I saw one lady starts to bring out her phone and I don't even have to be a genius to know what she plans on doing but I will be a fool to let her carry out her wish. Now, if I took that phone and smash it, my face would be on the tabloids again and then you will see headlines like 'The arrogant billionaire who assaulted a woman' when all I did was smash a damn phone.


Not that I would have cared but I need to watch my actions as it can jeopardize Jared's image too. Sometimes, having the same face with Jared is a disadvantage.


I turned and started walking away with Praise in my hold before anyone can start taking pictures or videos. We got to my car and he violently snatched himself away from my hold.


"Woah! No need for all that."

"I can take care of myself, I didn't need you butting in." He seethed getting in my face.

"I would back up if I were you." I warned with all signs of playfulness gone from my being.


This is what I get for trying to be nice? Just perfect!


"Or what?" He asked shoving me back.


His shove barely did something but that doesn't mean I wasn't upset by that. However, the thought of his sister was making me hold back.


"Do that one more time and the black eye you will receive from me would be nothing compared to the one already on your left eye." I told him as a matter of fact.
