Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 46. You Suck More
"You mean you want to use yourself as bait? Don't be ridiculous. I'll make a lot of safeguards for you and that's still not enough. You also need to be able to protect yourself." Ivy said the plan.Greyson looked unhappy at the idea of being followed and watched by several people."Alright. I agree about protecting yourself. But forget about giving me some people who will follow me. I don't like it." Greyson finally made his decision."That's good!" Ivy looked relieved. She could still order some special bodyguards to protect Greyson secretly."Don't even think about deceiving me." Greyson could read Ivy's thoughts.The woman couldn't help but laugh in the end. "You know me very well."The two then fell silent again."So, when are you leaving? Preferably quickly, before they come back to try to kill you again." Ivy felt this was an urgent need.Greyson didn't really care. He thought for a moment before answering. "I still have some things to do. Maybe next week I can go."Ivy could on
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 47. Just an Accident
Greyson remained seated, seemingly unaware of the flash of metal hurtling toward him.Time slowed. Suddenly, the phone in his hand slipped and fell to the floor. He bent down to pick it up.Whoosh!The bullet whizzed past exactly where his head had been a second ago, striking the wall behind him and sending a cloud of dust and shattered plaster into the air.“Holy shit!” Jacob shouted, his face turning pale. With a swift movement, he lunged at Matt and snatched the gun from his hand. “What the hell are you doing, you idiot?!”Matt froze, his mouth slightly open. His face didn’t show the panic one would expect from someone who had nearly killed his friend. Instead, his expression was unreadable—somewhere between shock and... disappointment?“I... I didn’t mean to,” Matt finally muttered, his voice low. “I didn’t realize the trigger was that sensitive.”Greyson straightened up, his gaze shifting from the bullet hole in the wall to Matt, his expression unnaturally calm. As if his near-d
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 48. Naomi’s Visit
There were still a few days left before Greyson had to leave for the island training. Strangely, he didn’t even think about it. It was as if the looming threat of death was nothing but a passing breeze. As usual, Greyson continued working diligently at the company, spending his time in front of computer screens and stacks of documents.He also refused to meet with Brooks’ father, who had offered to sell their land at half the original purchase price. It wasn’t just intentional—Greyson was genuinely busy.That evening, Greyson’s usually quiet apartment was startled by the sharp sound of the doorbell. He glanced at the clock—it was almost dinnertime. Hopefully, it wasn’t Matt again.Checking the monitor screen, Greyson was slightly surprised to see Naomi—his third sister. He quickly opened the door. Naomi stood before him with a wide smile, carrying several large shopping bags in her hands.“Surprise!” Naomi exclaimed cheerfully, stepping inside without waiting for an invitation. “I tho
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 49. Learning to Cook
Greyson, who was usually stubborn, always found himself helpless when it came to Naomi. With a long sigh, he stood up and approached his sister.“Alright. What do you want me to do?” he asked reluctantly.For the next hour, Greyson’s kitchen turned into a chaotic training ground. Naomi patiently gave instructions, demonstrated, and Greyson tried to follow. The results were disastrous.“Oh my God, Grey! You can’t cut onions like that!” Naomi nearly screamed when she saw Greyson brutally massacring an onion. “You’re chopping it like you’re torturing someone!”“It’s just an onion,” Greyson muttered, not understanding why something so small could make his sister so frustrated.“It’s an art,” Naomi corrected, taking the knife from him. “Look, like this. The motion has to be smooth and consistent.”Greyson tried again, but the results weren’t much better. When it was time to sauté, hot oil splattered everywhere, nearly hitting Naomi’s face.“Okay, enough!” Naomi finally threw her hands up i
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 50. A Childhood Promise
The room fell silent. Even Jacob stopped chewing his food.As far as he knew, all four of Greyson’s sisters’ biological parents had passed away."Your biological parents?" Greyson asked. "I thought they were dead?"Naomi nodded. "They were just an ordinary couple living in another city. I’ve met them a few times.""How... how are they?" Greyson asked carefully, realizing how sensitive this topic was for Naomi."They’re good," Naomi replied with a small smile. "They’re kind people. But...""But?""After meeting them a few times, they introduced me to a strange man," Naomi continued with a hint of annoyance in her tone. "And they suggested that I marry him."Jacob nearly choked on his drink. "Just like that? After only meeting a few times?""Yep," Naomi laughed dryly. "It seems like they’re eager to see me ‘happy’ according to their definition."Greyson nodded slowly, unsure how to respond. He wasn’t someone who was good at comforting others or giving advice."That reminds me," Naomi su
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 51. The Terrifying Video Call
Silvia’s face appeared on the screen first. Her usually neat hair was slightly messy, a clear sign that she was busy with work.“What is it, Naomi? I’m in the middle of something,” she said with a hint of annoyance before her eyes landed on Greyson behind Naomi. “Oh, Grey?”Greyson offered a small smile toward the screen. “Hello, Silvia.” Then, he tried to move out of the camera’s view, but Jacob deliberately pushed him back into the frame.“Silvia, do you remember our childhood promise with Grey?” Naomi asked without preamble.Silvia’s eyes suddenly sparkled, her professional demeanor crumbling in an instant. “Which one? Oh, you mean that promise?” She chuckled.“Exactly,” Naomi nodded in satisfaction. “Grey here thinks we’ve all forgotten about it.”“Forgotten?” Silvia raised an eyebrow. “How could I possibly forget? I even kept the agreement he signed with a red crayon.”“You kept it?!” Greyson couldn’t hide his shock.“Of course, Grey. It’s a legal document.” Silvia grinned mischi
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 52. The Women Who Were Too Busy
"His name is Matt Vegan," Jacob announced enthusiastically to everyone. "You must have heard of him. He's a famous actor."A brief silence followed. The faces on the phone screen exchanged confused looks."Never heard of him," Silvia was the first to reply, followed by nods from Ivy and Samantha.Jacob groaned loudly, furrowing his brows in disappointment. Matt was incredibly famous. Half the women in the country adored him. He stared at the screen in disbelief. But these women—either too busy or simply uninterested in entertainment news—claimed not to know him."Sorry, his name has never appeared in any financial reports I read," Silvia replied dryly."I don't like reading gossip magazines," Ivy added, crossing her arms defensively. "Besides, I have more important things to do than watch people act.""Same here. I have a lot of patients to take care of," Samantha chimed in."So, how do you know this Matt guy?" Ivy asked, her tone sharp and investigative. Her eyes narrowed suspiciousl
Foolish Great Rich Heir Chapter 53. The Investigation
Greyson grabbed his phone from the desk and quickly dialed Ivy’s number.The ringing repeated several times before Ivy’s firm voice answered from the other end."Grey? You finally called me," Ivy sounded exhausted."What happened to Naomi?" Greyson asked immediately, regretting that he had ignored all their calls.A heavy sigh came from the other end. "Naomi went to her parents’ house as planned, but after that..." Ivy paused. "She never came back, Grey. No calls, no messages, and her phone has been off.""What have you found out so far?" he asked in a calm voice."My people have been investigating," Ivy replied. "Naomi’s parents are clean. They’re just as confused as we are.""Any other leads?" Greyson asked again, walking toward the window.He gazed at the cityscape below."We’re looking into the man her parents introduced her to," Ivy continued, her tone laced with displeasure. "That man is on a business trip out of town. I’ve had someone follow him, but so far, nothing suspicious.

Chapter 55. The Man in the Golden Mask
Naomi hid a small knife that she had intended to use to cut her restraints. It was a folding knife, less than four inches long, barely noticeable when held in her palm. After hours in captivity, she had devised several strategies. This tiny knife was her last card, carefully concealed within the folds of her clothing.Outside, a few people were talking. Their voices were deliberately lowered, making it impossible to make out their conversation. Then came the sound of a lock being undone, followed by the creak of a turning doorknob. The door pushed open from the outside. Three people stepped into the dimly lit room where Naomi was held.The room itself was shrouded in mystery. The stone walls were old, with peeling paint. A small window was covered by heavy drapes, blocking out all light. The air smelled of dampness and dust, as if the place had been abandoned for years.Naomi’s sharp gaze landed on the man standing directly before her. He wore a dark coat, and his long blonde hair cas
Chapter 54. Mr. Reed Is Missing Too
For a moment, Greyson frowned. He had caught a glimpse of worry in Mrs. Reed’s expression.He raised his voice slightly, trying to remain polite. "Mrs. Reed, I am Naomi’s brother. We’re very worried. Could you let me in?"He knocked on the door repeatedly.No response. No movement either.Greyson repeated his actions once more."Ma’am, if there’s a problem, you can talk to me. We can help each other."This time, the door creaked open slightly, revealing the weary and anxious face of the middle-aged woman. Her eyes scrutinized Greyson from head to toe, as if trying to read his thoughts. Traces of dried tears were still visible on her wrinkled cheeks."Come in," Mrs. Reed finally said, her voice hoarse.The simple living room was filled with an air of unease. Family photos adorned the walls, showcasing moments of happiness from the Reed family’s past. A few houseplants near the window looked wilted, as if mirroring the distress of the home’s occupants. Mrs. Reed sat in a chair facing Gr
