A Bastard For The Heir

“What is this young man talking about?” The crowd murmured in shock.Gary's burning gaze lingered on Wayne for a while. “What gave you the audacity to barge in here and claim we stole from you? Who the fuck are you?”“I'm Wayne Costa, the heir to the Costa Legacy you took over through dubious means!”“What?” Gasps of amazement filled the air. “Simon Costa's son is alive? But the news said they all died in the fire?”“I also heard that Anna Moore carried out a DNA test and found out that Wayne wasn’t Simon’s real son, he was an adopted bastard.”“Then, what's the bastard doing here?”“He must be dreaming if he thinks he can regain control over the Costa's assets. It wouldn’t take anything for the Moore Family to snuff his life out.”“Oh, poor thing, he looks so thin and miserable. He must have suffered so much that he had to stoop to become a mechanic."The crowd made their own speculations about the issue.All of a sudden, a loud scream echoed from the side of the hall. “I said come w

“Mr Sidney is here.” Ashton hurried to inform them.“The Brooks’ private butler is here?” Gary gasped in amazement.The Brooks were the 1st most powerful family here in Las Vegas. The patriarch, Alex Brooks was a very hard man to please.The Moore's had been trying to make deals with him all to no avail, but now he's sending his butler over.Gary was so excited that he momentarily forgot about Wayne, making his way to the front door, his mother and others trailing behind him."Hello, Mr Sidney. It's nice to have you here!" Gary greeted the man enthusiastically like they'd known each other for years.“I would have prepared a grand welcome for you if you'd informed us that you were going to attend my party, sire.” Anna added with a wide smile.“I'm not here to attend your party!” Sidney lashed out at them. “I'm only here to deliver these gifts sent to Miss Moore.”“What?” Everyone was stunned.“Mr Brooks asked me to deliver these gifts personally.” Sidney added, gesturing his men to bri

“I had no idea you were coming, Mr Costa, please forgive me for not coming to receive you right on time!” Henry cowered guiltily, bowing in front of Wayne.The guests in the lobby gasped in shock. Why would the General Manger bow down to someone dressed in mechanic clothes? Could this man be the Ghost CEO?A shiver ran down the spine of the guards at the thought that this man they just insulted could be the CEO. Thinking in the same line, Jad took the courage to walk up to Henry. “Mr Hafford, what’re you doing? He’s just a miserly mechanic that came to beg for scraps, why are you treating him so reverently?”“What?” Henry raised his fists to smack Jad across the face. The slap was so resounding that the lobby fell into silence.“Did you just call Mr Costa a miserly mechanic? Do you have an idea who he is?” Henry raged out in anger.He’d been trying his best to impress Wayne with his managerial skills and convince him, only for his staffs to end up treating him badly.“I. . .I’m sorr

“I’m going nowhere.” Wayne replied coldly, picking up his luggage and making his way to the center of the room, pausing to glance at the artworks on the wall.None of the cushions, nor furniture, paintings of even artworks that were originally placed by his father had been changed. The Moore’s were really shameless!He thought back and wondered what his father saw in them to become friends with the then helmsman, Mathias.Mathias was a straightforward and honest man but he suddenly died of stroke and was secretly buried a day later, making Wayne wonder what else the Moore’s were hiding especially that woman.“How dare you walk into this house uninvited? Does it look like we welcome every beggar on the street? It would be better you walk out with your miserable legs before we break them for you!” Nikki was outraged when she returned and met Wayne staring down at contempt at the family pictures on the wall.Wayne paid no heed to her words, he only turned to give her a sinister smile. “Y

“Aunt,” Loretta sighed tiredly. “I can’t-”“You can’t do what?” Nikki snorted aloud. “You can’t get married to Brad Brooks? Is that what you’re saying, Loretta? I can’t believe you would dare to refuse Mother’s orders. Have you forgotten I helped you keep your horrible secrets?”Loretta’s face paled. “Nikki, there’s no need for-“Anna flipped her cold gaze on Nikki. “What are you talking about?”“Loretta’s restaurant has run into loads of debt!” She spat out the secret without thinking twice. “The reason why she rushed out earlier was to try to stop Mike Taylor from vandalizing her kitchen equipment!” “What?” Everyone’s gaze zeroed in on Loretta.Before Loretta got married to Wayne, she already had a restaurant that was doing quite well, but after he left, she got affected psychologically and the business suffered. Gary offered to help her manage it and placed one of his friends there but the place only got worse because the man embezzled all the money and escaped.The news made Lore
