Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 174: I'm your mother!
“When am I going to be free? I need to return home and set things right,” Dexter said to the woman whose face was turned away from him in a dark part of the room where she remained unidentified.Since the day Dexter arrived at her place, he hadn't seen her face. Whenever she wanted to talk to Dexter, she'll move towards the dark corner of the room always turning her face away from him.“Very soon Dexter. You should know you can't just return without a plan,” the woman replied.“Who are you exactly and why are you helping me?” Dexter asked.“I'm someone who cares about you so much. Someone who really loves you but couldn't show you that love when I had the chance to do so.” The woman replied.Dexter was surprised to hear the woman say those words. All his life, no one had lived in such a way that made him shut his heart. Even with Ivy, he was always expecting the worse from her especially after what happened between him and Sandy.“But the longer I stay here, the more things are fallin
Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 175: I'm alive, Sonia
Dexter's eyes widened as the revelation hit him hard like a ton of bricks.“Yes Dexter. I'm your mother,” Katherine's expression softened, revealing a tender-hearted woman who suddenly seemed different from the woman who had been giving orders just moments ago.Dexter was not yet convinced by her sudden revelation. All his life, he had been made to believe that his mother had abandoned him, and seeing a strange woman claim to be his mother didn't sit well with him."What did you just say?" Dexter's voice trembled with disbelief as he struggled to process the shocking revelation."Yes, Dexter. I'm your mother," Katherine repeated, her tone gentle yet firm, as if trying to reassure him.Dexter's mind raced, grappling with a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. Memories of his childhood flooded back—the longing for a mother's love, the unanswered questions about her absence, and the pain of feeling abandoned. Now, faced with the possibility that his mother might be alive after all these ye
Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 176: What about James Richmond?
“Where are we going to, mom?” Dexter asked as the car drove them through the busy streets that night.“To meet some people you'll be needing their help to win this war with your uncle James,” Katherine replied.They soon arrived at the place and the car parked in front of a mansion, one as big as the Richmond's mansion itself.Dexter was surprised to see such a beautiful edifice that could compete with the Richmond's mansion. He couldn't help but wonder who it was that they've come to visit in that palace.Entering into the mansion, he was greeted by the presence of some of the notable world leaders. The president of the United States president Jason Franklin, the prime minister of Britain, prime minister Boris Churchill and the president of the United Nations were all gathered there.“Good evening Mrs Richmond,” They all greeted as they shook hands with Katherine.Dexter was surprised at the level of influence his mother had to have been able to host such calibre of people for a me
Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 177: Someone please call for an ambulance
“James might be a part of the Coalition but he's also family. We'll handle him like family too.” Katherine replied.Dexter acknowledged her response with a gentle nod as the meeting continued.“What about Sandy Wayne and Lacey Norris?” Katherine inquired.Dexter's eyes almost popped out of their sockets at the mention of the names of both Sandy and Lacey. Firstly, he had almost forgotten that Lacey and Sandy had been kidnapped alongside him and that the last time he saw them was the day the warehouse was set ablaze by his uncle Richard. Another reason for her surprise was how his mother got to know so much about everyone connected to Richmond's empire.He turned towards the general waiting to hear what he had to say concerning Sandy and Lacey.“From our intelligence agency reports, Raphael and Priscilla Wayne have informed the police that their daughter is missing and the police are already looking for her but without any trace as to where they can find her,” The general's eyes bore i
Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 178: This can't be happening!
The ambulance arrived blaring it's siren with the paramedics rushing out to convey Sandy in a stretcher while the police took James, Jack and Alex away.Dexter and Lacey went with the team of paramedics to the hospital. As the ambulance took off that night, Dexter couldn't help it but to pray silently in his heart that nothing bad should happen to Sandy.“Please hurry up,” Dexter's cry echoed through the van, his cloth stained with blood. His fear kept increasing as he watched Sandy's life slowly fade away.“Don't die, Sandy,” His voice trembled as tears began to flow of their own accord.He had never expected that Sandy would do something like that for him, not after her betrayal when they were still married.The night seemed to be darker and quieter as the team of paramedics conveyed Sandy to the Emergency Room. Dexter's heart raced with different thoughts.“Who was it that could have made an attempt on his life?” He thought.It wasn't long after that Priscilla and Raphael arrived a
Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 179: Katherine's alive?
“Cliches, like the darkest hour, are just before dawn. Priscilla was still finding it difficult to recover from the death of Sandy. She stayed in her room all day refusing to eat and not wanting to talk to anybody. She felt like her world had ended now that Sandy was no more. The armed forces and the police took up the matter to find who actually attempted to kill Dexter that night. With all of Dexter's enemies out of the way, the investigation narrowed down to two possible individuals - Julio Jones and Mr Blaq. “You idiot! How did you manage to miss him?” The air crackled with Julio's voice, rising with frustration and indignation at the young man whom he had asked to finish off Dexter once and for all.He had laid down specific instructions and wasn't expecting anything to go wrong. “It's the lady who stepped in. I already had a clear shot but she immediately stepped in.” The young man replied, his fist clenched and his tone assertive.The young man was one of the best assassins
Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 180: James has escaped!
Katherine and Dexter entered into the room to see every mourning. He approached Priscilla with his own bouquet of flower offering his sympathy to her.Katherine too offered her sympathy causing everyone except Stephanie to wonder who she was and why she was with Dexter.“Katherine!” Stephanie exclaimed, upon recognizing her as Dexter's mother and her once upon a time friend.“You know her?” Ivy inquired, her curiosity piqued.“Yes dear. That's Dexter's biological mother.” Stephanie replied, causing Ivy's mouth to open wide in awe as she had never expected it. From his conversation with Dexter back when they newly started dating, he had told her that his mother was probably dead having been left and abandoned at an orphanage as a baby.“What's she doing here? And did Dexter get to find her?” Stephanie muttered to herself.Dexter noticed Ivy's presence and walked up to her. He felt bad that he had not shown himself to her ever since he got out of the burning warehouse alive.“Ivy….” He
Heir to the Richmond Empire Chapter 181: Our enemies are Dexter and his mother
This isn't good,” Katherine's forehead creased slightly conveying a sense of unease. They had left the mourning room as soon as they heard that James had escaped. That wasn't part of the plan. With James already out of the picture, it was left with Julio and Mr Blaq but now that James had escaped, they could smell trouble brewing already. “So what do we do now?” Dexter asked, seeing that there was really not much he could bring himself to think about regarding everything that was happening. “We'll have to be vigilant. If James had failed in his first attempt to kill you, he'll come again and this time, he won't spare you.” Katherine revealed, her hands clasped, with a palpable sense of nervous energy underlying her demeanor. Dexter could understand what his mother was saying but in the midst of it all, he still wanted to know why his mother and Ivy's mother had a rough conversation earlier. The fact that the two of them would become inlaws soon was a matter of concern to him. He
