Chapter 1444
Larry's parents were shocked.
"What...what do you mean by that?!
The old couple saw the crazed look in their son's eyes, and were so frightened their hands started trembling under
the table.
Larry smiled, telling them not to be afraid.
"I’m just asking.”
Cecilia hadn't said yes to marrying him yet. He wasn't in a rush to kill her.
The moment she agreed to marry him... No, the moment she agreed to be with him, he would make his move.
He would never allow any accidents to happen until they got married!
Meanwhile, Julian and Noel stepped out of the car.
This area hadn't been developed, and mud was all around. Noel was worried about dirtying Julian's shirt. "Mr.
Fulcher, shall I grab you some shoe protectors?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJulian glanced at him as he continued walking forward. "I'm not that particular."
Just as he said that, he stepped right on the side of the drain with his newly bought hand-made Italian leather
shoes.
Julian mumbled, "Perhaps I do need shoe protectors."
The shoes themselves weren't the problem. The problem was that Diana was the one who bought the shoes for
him.
He didn't want the shoes to be destroyed before Diana had the chance to see him wearing them.
After wearing his shoe protectors, he and Noel continued walking deeper into the area.
The road started getting narrower. By the time they entered the middle part, the path was only wide enough for
one person.
They saw no one else along the way.
"It's daytime now. They’ve probably all gone out to work," Noel said.
Everyone who stayed here were migrant workers who left this place early in the morning and came back only late
at night. This area was but a place for them to rest their heads at night.
Julian nodded, and asked Noel, "Are we almost there?"
They were seeing fewer and fewer houses the deeper they walked in.
Noel looked at the numbers of the units around them, and walked a few more steps before saying, "Here!"
He yelled for Julian to come over. "Mr. Fulcher, this is the one!"
Julian nodded. The door opened even before he knocked on it.
A courtyard surrounded by four houses greeted them.
Given who Julian was, Noel thought he might not know about the living conditions of a place like this, and hurriedly
explained, "The whole household lives in one house, not just one person."
Julian nodded. "In which house does the boss of that cafe stay?"
Noel shook his head. "His employees said they don't know. All they can tell me is this address."
"Just call him," Julian said as he stood in the courtyard. " Who’s the boss of the roadside cafe?"
Julian stood straight, emanating an air of grandiose and authority. He was a complete mismatch with his
surroundings.
Isaac looked out the window when he heard Julian's voice. He spotted Julian, but didn't remember seeing him
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbefore.
But this had come all the way here to find him, and anyone who dropped by was a guest. Isaac didn't like
mistreating his guests, and would always extend hospitality to them.
"Hey!" He grabbed a beer bottle, and pushed his door open. The door creaked as he said, "I'm here. Come in!"
He offered the beer to Julian, but Julian didn't take it.
Isaac was annoyed.
"What?" He spotted the shoe protectors that Julian was wearing, and disdain filled his eyes. "Aside from the ground,
do you find me dirty too?"
He had never drank from this beer bottle!
What an ungrateful scumbag!
Issac decided not to bother with Julian, no matter how important a figure he could be.
Bam!
Isaac slammed his door shut, then downed an entire glass of beer.
Noel, who saw everything that happened, stood there in shock. Julian was in no better state.
Shock was written all over both their faces.
