Never Judge

Chapter 363 - 363

The bullies didn't notice when Jo wheeled Cedric in, they were too focused on the members of the security team. They knew these were the very men that had captured them the night before, and Leon was the one that saved Cedric from the gunshot.

"Recognize them?" The masked man on the wheelchair asked. They quickly realized that this person was the CEO of the Reyes Group, they had seen him multiple times and very few people would wear a disguise like him. His aura intimidated them, he may have been seated on the wheelchair, but he was just too powerful for them.

They were paralized by Cedric's question, they didn't know if they should respond, if they were even allowed to respond. They hadn't seen the news so they were still unaware that the other people in the room were in fact their siblings. They looked at their fathers who stood a little distance away from Cedric.

"Mr. Reyes, sir, we didn't know that these men were your bodyguards, had we known we wouldn't have tried to fight back. We just wanted to drink our sorrows away." Kevin Garcia begged as his eyes darted back and forth between the CEO of the Reyes Group and the bodyguards.

"Dad, dad, please help us. We promise to change." Ben Sanchez said as he spoke to his father, Louie. "Dad, I promise I won't be a problem anymore. I'll take my role in the company seriously. I'll be loyal to my wife, I won't cheat on her anymore. I won't do anything illegal. Dad please save me." 

Louie Sanchez ignored his son's pleas. It was too late, way too late. The moment they picked on the poor kid at school they dug their grave. 

"Your dad can't help you." The CEO in front of them said in a cold tone.

"Sir, please we will be better. We are sorry for your body guards." Carlo Juan said.

Suddenly Katerina, who was in the room with them, laughed. 

"Miss, did I say something funny?" Carlo Juan asked. 

"You have no idea who you're messing with." Katerina said with a grin as she walked over. "I'm here to represent my client. He has filed multiple cases against you and you will definitely go to jail for the rest of your lives, and I can guarantee, it will not be a pleasant stay."

"Sorry, Miss, but who are you? Even without my father I can hire a better lawyer than a woman." Carlo Juan said as he eyed Katerina. He had seen her with Raymund Laurence during the show, but he wasn't sure who she actually was. 

"Wow, someone who doesn't know who you are sister." Alexi said with a menacing laugh. Carlo Juan had just made his situation a whole lot worse.

"My name is Katerina Sebastian. Remember that." Katerina said as she glared at Carlo. "It will be I that will send you to jail. Go call all your lawyers and your lawyer friends, tell them that they will go up against me, they will all back out." Katerina had never been one to boast, but she was never humble either. She knew when she had the upper hand and when to use it. Locally, very few lawyers would dare stand against her in court, and those that did always lost.

"Mr. Reyes, please tell us what we did wrong. We can fix things sir. We can make things right. We can pay for the damages at the bar and we can even pay for the hospital fees that your men incurred. Please sir, let us go." Jun David begged as he ignored Katerina and Carlo.

"Do I seem like someone in need of money?" The CEO of the Reyes Group asked. Of course he didn't need money, those hospital fees were nothin to him. 

"No sir. That's not what I meant." Jun David began to panic, he didn't think his offer would offend the CEO.

"Your dues to me go way way back, but before that I have some people I want to introduce to you." Cedric said as he signaled for Jo to wheel him over. "In one night your lives have been completely overturned." Cedric said as he grinned under the mask.

Jo brought him in front of Carlo Juan who couldn't look him in the eye.

"Carlo Juan." Cedric said with a sneer.

"How do you know my name?" Carlo asked. The CEO of the Reyes Group knowing your name could only mean two things, either you were incredibly liked or incredibly hated, Carlo had a gut feeling it was the latter.

"I'd like to introduce you to your brother, Paolo Juan." Cedric said as he waved for Paolo to come closer.

"You! I treated you as my ally!" Carlo shouted as he realized Paolo had been the more reliable child. 

"You wouldn't have survived a day in the company if you weren't father's son!" Paolo said as he glared at Carlo. It seemed he had gained some sort of courage since Cedric was there. He wouldn't have been able to speak up if the situation was any different. 

"Your father just announced that all his assets and interests in the company will be inherited by your brother Paolo." Cedric said as he watched Carlo's expression get worse.

"Why are you doing this to us? We don't even know you!" Carlo shouted at Cedric. 

"Really Mr. Juan? You don't know who I am?" Cedric asked as he leaned forward.

"I've only met you at public events, why are you so hell bent on ruining my life!" Carlo shouted. 

"Are you really going to go through each one of them?" Alexi asked with a yawn. "Even to me this is way too harsh." 

"Hmmm… You're right. They aren't worth the effort." Cedrc said in a cold tone. 

Carlo Juan reacted by retreating back a little, but Leon who was behind him pushed him closer to Cedric.

"Carlo Juan, don't you recognize my injury?" Cedric asked with a raised eyebrow.

"How am I supposed to know, ask a doctor or something." Carlo said frantically, he had an idea but it was impossible, how could that person be the same as the powerful CEO in front of him. It was just impossible.

"You placed me in this wheelchair Carlo, how dare you say you don't recognize me!" Cedric said angrily. 

"You can't be." Jun David managed to say when he too realized who the CEO could be.

Cedric laughed. "You beat me up, called my wife a whore, and shot me. Do you think I could ever forgive any of you?" Cedric asked as he took off his mask and revealed himself to them.
