Forgotten Legacy : Useless Son-in-law to Corporate Tycoon Ch -42. New relationship
Eliana was not ready to see anyone from her own family and face them; then meeting some new guest was something she would never be prepared for.Maybe, the fact that Sienna had been arrested might not have reached their ears yet, otherwise, there was no way in this whole world that they could be so calm about it. Every passing minute felt like a ticking time bomb for her; it was already so late, and there was no way they would be able to bail Sienna out today.“Mom! Mom, please listen to me first. I can't meet any guests now, since I have kind of a big emergency in my hands–”“Oh! Please! Eliana, don't tell me your idiot husband has gotten himself stuck in some new problem now. Why don't you just sign the divorce papers and do all of us a huge favor by getting rid of that good for nothing man?”"Mom, I–" “Anyways! I am too excited and busy to let his blunders slide for a moment, you remember my little cousin, his friend is here and he is really very interested in meeting you, so wha

Noah's POV:I saw the message and quickly typed 'Okay' in reply, before anyone would take notice of me reading that message.“So what's your plan on staying here tonight? As I promised, I will be arranging the mansion of your choice in two days, but till then why don't you just stay here? I mean, don't you think it is a little inconvenient for you to live in your in-laws’ house, even after meeting your family?”Uncle Otis spoke up in a casual tone, as if he was simply trying to make conversation while stuffing the food into his mouth.“I don't think it would be a good idea for me to stay here tonight. You see, I don't really want to spend even a single day in the house from where I was thrown out into the stinky dumpster without any fault–”“Noah! Darling, I know you are still upset regarding that misunderstanding! But dear, now that you have grown up, try to think from our perspective as well. What were we supposed to do, if not obey your grandfather's order? After all, he is the one

“Noah! How are you, my son? I know you might be getting so emotional right now, but you have to control your emotions for now and just go to the apartment I have bought for you with Stuart. He will explain everything to you there.”Noah wanted to give a fiery retort by asking why should he be emotional and after all, who were they to him? When they once had the heart to cast him out of the house, then why were they so eager to get him back and even care about his emotions? But he managed to restrain his emotions just as his grandfather had instructed, and asked;“But how would I go there–”“Don't worry about it, my dear. Stuart will manage everything from now on, did you have a good dinner?”“Yes.”Noah didn't lie; since the day he was thrown out of the house, it was the first time in all these years that he had a good dinner with so much variety of food on the table. And if he forgot about the melodrama being pulled by his aunt and uncle, this was the first time he had been able to

Noah watched the color draining from Otis' face, and he was also enjoying it to the fullest. But sadly enough, he couldn't express his feelings just now.So, he pressed his lips together before leaving with a final remark.“Goodbye, uncle Otis. And I'll see you after you manage to fulfill the condition I have set for you.”“Of course! Don't worry dear, I will be doing my best.”Otis said with an awkward smile, wanting a reassuring reply in return, but all he got was the sound of footsteps walking away from him.It took Noah no more than fifteen minutes to reach the locality where his grandfather had arranged an apartment for him.But being familiar with his grandpa's nature, Noah also knew that he hated the apartment culture… he had always been against it.Then why did he buy it for him? Did he really still believe that he was the reason for all the things his uncle told him he was guilty for? The thought started to clench his heart and he started to rethink his decision of ever comi

Eliana could already sense something ominous on her way… and Richard Jenson's presence was the sign of her being right all along.The anxiety of not being able to tell her family about her sister being locked up was already overwhelming her. And Richard's last statement about leaving Noah had left her petrified.This was completely visible on her face, as she tried to gulp down the lump forming in her throat.“What happened sweetheart, are you okay?”Richard asked, as he was the only one whose eyes were stuck to Eliana's face since she had arrived there.He had always been weak for beautiful girls, and Eliana could be their Goddess! Because he had definitely never laid eyes on someone so beautiful before her.She was the perfect replica of the purest beauty described in the poems by the poets since ancient times. Before arriving here, he was a little reluctant about why he would go for someone who was already married, when he could have plenty of unmarried, young girls around him… a

Eliana rushed towards her bedroom; she wanted to take a long and relaxing bath, ideally for an hour and a half, to put off some tension of the day away from her mind… at least for some time.But she knew that she wasn't going to get that chance anytime soon today.So she quickly rushed to the washroom to wash her face, splashing it with plenty of water to make her mind somewhat calm.The day had indeed failed even the highs and lows of a rollercoaster, and she didn't even know how much of it was still left for her. She quickly came out of the washroom and patted her face dry, while she looked for her mobile to call Noah.However, even after three tries, she wasn't able to contact him at all. Having no other option, she left a voice note for him to call her the moment he saw this message, since they needed to talk.She had always been sure about her family not liking Noah, and she had just witnessed an example of that a few minutes ago. They didn't even have a solid reason behind it,

Noah took a complete tour of the apartment and realized that it was indeed very spacious and breathtaking, equipped with everything he could possibly need.Everything had just begun to fall into place, when a new thought crept into his mind: how was he going to break this sudden news to Eliana?Just the thought of coming up with a new reason, most probably another lie, was enough to bring a frown to his face. Because he knew that she might have believed that he had gotten those millions of dollars from his new employer, and this employer might have done a heroic job of rescuing him from a situation that could end up with him in jail… But she was indeed smart enough to know that no matter how important a post he held in the company, no employer was going to give him such a luxurious apartment– not until he had directly joined as the CEO of some multi-billion dollar company!And she also knew that he didn't have the required credentials for that. He had somehow managed to continue his

Eliana was really tired and hungry; she had rushed to address Sienna had sent her this morning, without having her lunch. And after how the rest of the day had unfolded, she really hadn't gotten any opportunity to grab a quick bite, or anything at all to put into her stomach. Pangs of hunger were nearly killing her, and she felt like she was on the verge of starvation. But to her surprise, the dinner was ready even without Noah being present. As far as she remembered, no dinner had been prepared without his presence and labor in the kitchen, since the last two and half years.He was the one cooking all the meals for the family, wiping the counters and cleaning all the dishes… along with the entire house, and doing all the household chores as well.And he was doing all this without any complaint, all these years.But today, she was finally able to see how thankless her family really was. Today, when he was not around, they were ready to sell him off by asking her to sign the divorce

Ch-205. Our legacy
Noah was sitting in the garden, trying desperately to calm himself as he had been feeling a little uneasy because of the way things had unfolded.He had spent most of his life away from home, this is why, he knew the value of family. He had also met several people who were dark to the very core, but for some reason, he thought that Liam was different…Noah had a feeling that everything he had been doing so far, was just because something that he thought would always remain his, had been snatched from him in the middle of all the succession drama… and especially because of Noah himself.So it was a logical thing that he hated him from the core of his heart… but he had also seen his affection towards their grandpa. He was lost in his thoughts, staring off into the distance… when he noticed some disturbance near the ivy vines, lurking by the southernmost boundary of the garden.He rose from his seat and started walking towards the boundary; and Ben snapped to attention.He had been stan

“Killed him? Dad!! You are saying you killed him… wasn't his death an accident? Then how is it possible that you are the reason behind–”Liam didn't even realize that he had started to interrogate his father under the effect of his anxiety on hearing the last words spoken by him.Till now, he had been thinking that they were standing on the right side of the situation as well as the history that was yet to be written. He really believed that they were the oppressed ones who had always been discriminated against, trying to fight for their rights which had unjustly been snatched from them.But after hearing his father's nonchalant response, he wasn't able to think straight anymore. He was ready to go to any extent to get what really belonged to him, but killing someone was something he could never imagine doing… nor was he able to digest the fact that his father was a murderer.But before he could have completed his statement, Otis interrupted his rambling. “Yes! It was an accident, a

Sabreena hesitated in the doorway, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment as she clutched a large bouquet of white lilies. She took a deep breath before stepping into the living room, her eyes darting around nervously and scanning the faces: her brother was looking at her with confusion, while Olivia’s gaze was sharp, Eliana’s gently curious, and Noah was stoic and calm; although his calm demeanor wasn't exactly helpful in taming her anxiety.Finally, with a forced smile, she spoke up. “Oh, come on, Olivia…” She started awkwardly, the bouquet trembling slightly in her hands. “How long are you going to hold on to some… some small incident from ages ago? Why would I insult him? I… actually, I have come to thank No- I mean, Mr. Kingsley.”Eliana shot her mother an amused glance, while Noah remained silent, his face unreadable as Sabreena took a few steps forward, extending the bouquet of lilies towards him. Olivia crossed her arms and cut in sharply, “Well, I can’t exactly let it go

Liam threw down the glass vase which was placed on the side table in his room, sending it crashing to the floor, as soon as he noticed his parents trying to enter his room once again.It had been four days since his return- or to be honest, the rather rude way in which he had been thrown out, not just from the party but from the city itself. The security had unceremoniously dumped them on the first flight back to Edinburgh, without caring which class tickets were available. And apart from declaring in front of his parents that he had failed miserably, he hadn't given any specific details to his parents. Instead, he had locked himself in his room, boycotting everything: from eating properly to speaking to his parents.In fact, since last night, he had not even touched the food, even for once… and this was making both Otis and Viola more and more tense with every passing second.Even though they were aware that the deal had slipped out of Liam's hands, they were still trying to keep th

“What? Richard Jensen was there too?!” Eliana’s voice burst out in surprise from Noah's phone speaker, her lovely face filling the screen of their video call as she heard the entire story from his mouth. She leaned closer, her eyes wide with disbelief, while Noah glanced into the screen as he replied while preparing to go to bed. “Oh yeah! And he had plenty to say against me at first, calling me a scammer and whatnot. But as soon as Grandpa Omar and Norm showed up, he went quiet and practically disappeared into the crowd, fearing for his own safety.”Eliana burst into laughter, covering her mouth. “After what happened last time, I can’t believe he had the nerve to show up and then also splash mud on you! I mean, did he get the guts?”Noah chuckled. “Apparently, he bribed the event organizers for an invitation. And I guess he was really feeling frustrated after our last meeting, and thinking that he had nothing more to lose now, just vented out all his anger. His little scam was

“I understand, Grandpa Omar, that you’re not much of a drinker.”Noah continued with a steady voice, meeting some raised eyebrows from the people gathered around there. He continued, knowing that his words were surely having some effect, since Norm and Omar were looking at him with curiosity now, instead of suspicion. “I am also aware that you, Grandfather Norm and my grandfather have planned to visit Edencrest Estate together after the signing of the deal, and finally share the bottle of wine purchased so long ago. That is why I have ensured that the other bottle has safely been delivered at your residence, as the homage to that promise.”He glanced at the broken necklace on the floor, and everyone else's eyes followed; to the place where Sienna had thrown it after snapping the string and causing the pearls to scatter in all directions. “And I apologize for the condition of the necklace. It was a vintage heirloom, and though it was meant to be my gift to Eleanor, I shall make sure

Taking a moment to gather his thoughts, Noah blinked before responding. “Of course,” he said smoothly. “I am happy to answer any questions you might have to help you see that I’m speaking the truth.”Blaine folded his arms, looking Noah up and down, an expression of irritation on his face. Clearly, he thought it was nothing more than a waste of his time to entertain him, but he had no other choice. “Fine! Then show me what you have brought as a gift for my niece. If you are truly the heir of the Kingsleys, you would know better than to show up empty handed, wouldn’t you?”Noah inclined his head, unbothered by Blaine’s mocking tone. “Certainly, uncle. I’ll show you the gifts I have brought.” Turning slightly, he motioned to one of his guards, who stepped forward, handing him a wine bottle wrapped in elegant packaging. Noah held it, his fingers lightly wrapping around the bottle— the vintage wine he had personally unearthed that morning.He extended the bottle toward Blaine. “This

Sienna’s eyes narrowed with suspicion as she looked at the scene in front of her. Just this morning, this idiot Noah had been roaming around the city, trying to get access into a high- end bank.And now, he was supposedly surrounded by an army of guards? Something was really fishy…Just then, her eyes landed on the man at the front of the group, and recognition flashed in her eyes. She clenched her fists, it was him! The same gullible bodyguard from the bank earlier that morning; the one whom she had already fed lots of half- truths and mostly lies about Noah, painting him as a dangerous criminal.She had tried to make sure that he wouldn't slip away by any means, but he had. And now she knows how! Feeling a pang of betrayal and anger, she couldn't hold herself back from commenting;“Oh! I see, he has managed to fool you all too! And now you’re siding with him?” Her laugh was bitter, remembering the way this guard had promised her that he would call the police on Noah and that the

Ch-197. Where is the invitation
At the time when Noah had entered the venue, hardly anyone had noticed him in the middle of VIP guests, each more prestigious than the last.As long as he had an invite and the security had allowed him in, only a fool would waste their time questioning a nobody instead of making the most of this opportunity to rub shoulders with some of the most important people in the world. However, as Liam and Sienna started to mock and humiliate Noah out loud in the open, a crowd slowly started to form around them.The guests started to point him out specifically, murmuring about the possibility of him being a con man and still dodging the security arrangements at this venue.Meanwhile, Noah was standing at his place, completely unfazed by their speculations and instead maintained his calm with a smile that didn't even budge for a single moment.“And do you mind telling me, when will she become your wife? Because as far as I know, my sister in law was already married to someone else. So I'm assum
