Never Judge Chapter 23
Advertisement
By the afternoon Cedric was exhausted by all his meetings. He had barely sat on his desk when Ian informed him that his father asked him to go to R Tower to join a meeting. He quickly changed to something more fashionable, he could already hear Ayanna scolding him for going to R Tower in ordinary work attire.
"Sir your father asked me to prepare this facemask and glasses for you. He said you should wear it to the meeting." Ian said, handing a bag over to Cedric.
"I guess I'll be attending this meeting as the heir to Reyes Group." Cedric sighed. "What floor will our meeting be at?"
"At the 9th floor sir, Elisia Corp." Ian told him.
"It's the Island's Inc meeting isn't it?" Cedric asked Ian.
"Yes sir." Ian confirmed.
"I'm guessing my wife will pitch the project and I'm there to approve it. My dad is a horrible person." Cedric said laughing and shaking his head.
"Sir your father also said that we should come in through the main entrance rather than through the basement. He wants to use this to announce that you are back." Ian told Cedric.
"I really don't have a choice in this matter." Cedric laughed.
He took out his phone and quickly sent a message to Ram Abad: Are your reporters and photographers at the entrance of R Tower?
Ram replied: We're all gonna arrive together ;) this is gonna be fun.
Cedric's suddenly noticed that his car along with 4 others had formed a caravan, not far away from the 4 cars were 2 lead vans and 2 tail vans, they were probably filled with bodyguards. Due to his low profile Cedric never used bodyguards, however his friends and sister always needed some.

Cedric guessed that the 2 cars in front of him were Miguel Chan and Ramon Abad, this was done on purpose to represent business partnerships that the families had formed. The 2 cars behind him were probably Raymund Laurence and Alexander Sebastian, showing the underground and political influence that the Reyes family had.
Cedric opened their group chat and sent a message: The old men were doing more than just playing golf this morning.
Ray Laurence: They even managed to put symbolism into how we arrive. Hahaha.
Ram Abad: Dad contacted all the major news outlets last night. We're gonna show this city how to make a real entrance.
Miguel Chan: Dad pulled me out of an operation for this! I hate you Cedric! You owe me dinner!
Alexi Sebastian: And yet no one will see Cedric's face.
Cedric Reyes: Are we wearing matching watches today?
Ray Laurence: Matchy!
Alexi Sebastian: Grow up Ray.
Miguel Chan: Of course we are! I wear mine all the time hoping the paparazzi catch it and reveal your identity by accident.
Cedric Reyes: I'm sure there are more of these watches.
Ram Abad: Nope! Ayanna bought them all out.
Cedric grinned, it seemed what would reveal him to the public was his watch.
When they arrived at the driveway of R Tower the press was already there with their cameras up.
Cedric wore the facemask and glasses. He took a deep breath and nodded to Ian.
Ian got out of the car and opened the door. As soon as the door opened camera flashes started to go off.
The press were disappointed to see that the Heir of the Reyes Group had hidden his face, but from his aura you could immediately guess that he was a powerful man.
A little bit ahead of them in the lobby Adrianna and her team were wondering what the commotion outside was about.

"Oh my! Guys look. I think that's the Reyes heir. And look behind him, it's the 4 other princes." One of the team members said pointing to the driveway outside.
"Miss Adrianna, I think you're our lucky charm. Not only did we manage to get a meeting with the management of Elisia Malls but we even got the chance to see the 5 princes today." A girl said excitedly.
After that day, everyone in Island's Inc started to believe that Adrianna was Island's Inc.'s lucky charm.
Outside Ray ran up to Cedric and whispered. "Isn't that your wife?"
Cedric looked up and saw Adrianna standing in the lobby of R Tower.
The paparazzi managed to capture a photo of the way Cedric looked after Ray pointed Adrianna out. His eyes were full of love.
"Sir, sir. Are you back for good?" A reporter asked Cedric.
"Mr. Reyes many women want to know, are you dating anyone? Are you engaged? Are you married?"
"Mr. Reyes, will you be taking over Reyes Group now?"
"5 princes please tell us how you all became friends!"
"Mr. Reyes what role will your sister, Ayana Reyes, play in Reyes Group?"
The reporters flooded Cedric and the others with questions. Not even Ram Abad could have expected that Cedric's return would excite people this much.
"Please let Mr. Reyes pass through. The family will hold a press conference later on." Ian said quickly, helping Cedric into the building.
The security guards and bodyguards blocked the paparazzi from entering R Tower.
"That was crazy!" Miguel shouted while laughing. He looked at Cedric who still hadn't said a word.
He suddenly realized that Adrianna and her team were still standing at the empty lobby.
