Chapter 64 Headmaster Leon
Two black vans could be seen arriving in front of Crimsom Winterville. A man came out of the first car, followed by some people.
"Headmaster Leon!" a man's voice sounded.
Rommel's eyes widened. He slowly walked towards the gate. His muscles stiffened when he saw the person on the backside.
Carlo was kept like a hostage. His hands were still tied to his back. There was a bruise on the side of his hips as if someone forcefully punched him.
"H-How," he stuttered when Carlo couldn't look at him.
Leon glared at Rommel. "Where is your boss?" the tone of his voice was filled with authority.
Rommel didn't know what to answer. He kept quiet for seconds, thinking if he should let them enter. However, this only caused for Leon to be annoyed.
"Are you going to let me stay here or should I call the President?"
"Y-You may enter, Headmaster." He didn't have any choice, knowing that he was only Julius' assistant. The people in his front were much superior than him.
Headmaster gave a smug look. He looked at Rome from head to toe, before glancing at his back.
"Let's go," he declared.
"Yes, Headmaster." Aella signaled the guards who were following them to continue walking. They entered the gate and left Rommel alone outside.
Rommel instantly took his phone out of his pocket. He called Julius, who was currently in his office. They were just celebrating earlier how they managed to bribe the head of the academia's cafeteria yesterday, and now they were already caught.
A day hadn't even passed, and Carlo was already caught.
'I'm sure Julius wouldn't like this...'
Unknown to others, Headmaster Leon, President Damien, Noah, and Julius were close friends back then. They were working at the same company and even though they all have big age gaps, it didn't bother them.
The four of them were happy at first. But when Leon felt that they were slowly drifting apart, he decided to talk to them. That's when he knew that the three of them were doing something illegal behind his back.
He tried stopping them, but his efforts were put in vain. A big crack appeared in their friendship. He was the only one who remained on the good side. Despite that, after a few years, they started to fix their relationship and became friends once again.
However, he didn't depend on the influence that both Damien and Noah have. He built the school on his own. That's why he valued it dearly in his heart.
It was his pure hard work that made them reach this point. Although, he couldn't deny that Damien gave the school a lot of opportunities to be known by people.
He directly went towards Julius's office since he knew where it was. He has been countless times in here already.
"Wait for me here," he instructed Aella as he entered alone.
"Julius," He called out his attention.
Julius's forehead creased. "What are you doing here?" he couldn't help but ask. It's been a few months already since he last visited his office.
"What are you doing in my school?" Rommel directly asked, his eyes staring at him intently.
A laugh escaped from Julius' lips. "Why don't you take a sit first?" he comfortably turned around on his swivel chair.
"Don't make me laugh, Julius."
Julius grinned. "I do not know what are you talking about." his forehead creased when he saw Rommel's name repeatedly flashing on his screen since earlier.
'This fool really chose to call me at this moment!' He tilted his head to the side. He took out his phone and turned it off.
He adjusted his sit. His brows shot up. "Didn't you make us, leave your school? Then why are you here?" he snickered. "Are you that shameless?"
"You? Calling me shameless?" Leon unbelievably asked.
"Come in!"
"What are you doing?" Julius immediately stood up from his chair. He closed the distance between him and Leon and just when he was about to lock the door on his back, it suddenly opened.
As if he saw a ghost, Julius's face turned pale. His lips turned into a straight line. "H-How come?" He unconsciously blurted out.
Leon laughed in a mocking way. He grabbed Carlo by his collar and pushed him towards Julius. Because the man's hands were tied, he couldn't keep his balance, making him fall to the floor.
"If you do this trick once again, I wouldn't stay quiet already." He paused for a moment. "I will stay quiet this time because you have helped me a lot in the past. But I can't let you harm and taint the school that I built." He grind the words with his clenched teeth.
"Remember this." Leon disappointingly shake his head before he stormed out of the room.
Carlo and Julius were left alone inside the office.
"Sir…" Tears started to pool in Carlo's eyes as he looked at Julius. He was now regretting the choice that he made.
If only he wasn't blinded by the large money that they offered him.
Julius's fist clenched. He murderously stared at Carlo
"What have you done, you fool!" His voice thundered, making the poor Carlo's body tremble in fear.
"I told you to be secretive, didn't I? You didn't even last a day!" Julius went near to Carlo. He knelt on the ground before grabbing him by his collar.
"I paid you $50,000, and this is all you will do? WHERE THE FUCK IS THE MONEY!"
"I-It's already in my wife's hands, Sir…" Carlo does not know what to answer. He could see the thin line of patience, reflecting in Julius' eyes. And just one wrong answer and he was sure that he will be living 6th feet under the ground.
When Carlo remembered how he got caught, his eyes widened. He looked at Julius. 'I hope this will lessen his anger,' he breathed out.
"A student from the school was the reason how I got caught!" He straightly exposed so that Julius's anger could be shifted to another person
"Who?" Julius let go of his collar. He stood up and left the man on the floor.
"It was Hugo! The no. 1 student in the school!"
