Julien's heart raced. He grabbed onto the railing tightly. He kept leaning his body forward to get a better view. He wished that he could just jump down at this moment.
Jonah's posture was one of a kind. He was absolutely drawn to him. It couldn't have been anyone else other than Jonah! "Jonah... Jonah! Jonah!" Julien yelled.

"Hence, Julien is the only one who can really take over my position. If you beat him up until he becomes a disabled man, the Lovelace Group will not have a successor.

"I know that you've always fancied Mandy." Edgar's words pierced the deepest part of Joseph's heart, which he had kept hidden.
