Hidden Fortune’s Heir Making a point
At that moment, Linda knew the old woman was going to eat her up if she didn't bring something up to back up her words. Already, Grandmother had forcefully pulled herself from the IV drip which was more disturbing and if this was to drag on, then her mental health would be on the line too.“I have made us some money,” Linda said quickly but the woman didn’t move. She was still staring at her with a stone-cold gaze that meant ‘not enough’.“Look,” Linda said and brought out the platinum card as it was the only way to save herself. Everyone knew how much that card was worth, and it would certainly lighten her mood. She was sure of it.“A platinum card?” Rachel was the one who said, taking the words out of Grandmother’s mouth. She looked startled and was slowly able to connect everything in her head. Now she knew where Linda got the courage from and was able to pay the bills but then what was bothering them was where she got the card from.They were all penniless, and it wasn’t like Lin
Hidden Fortune’s Heir Trouble
Once again, Linda could feel the heat in the room. Her family was having a clash and what side was she supposed to choose? Already she knew there was no amount of words she could say to make both parties reconcile. She had to pick a side, and that should be immediately.“Let’s go!” Rachel called out to Linda. She was ready to leave since the old woman said so. After all, she did point out the truth and was never sorry for what she had said. Moreover, if she was asked to point out more, she would be ready to do so.“Mom… I…” Linda stammered, not knowing what to do. If she followed Rachel that would mean she was abandoning her grandmother, but then if she stayed with Grandmother it would also seem like she was abandoning her mother. It was too complicated for her.Just then she took a glance at Grandmother hoping to see if the woman wanted her to stay, but then the old woman didn’t even pay attention to both of them.Crack!The door was slightly pulled open, drawing all their attention t
Hidden Fortune’s Heir Arrest him!
Everyone’s eyes looked like they would bulge out of their socket as they watched who just walked in. He had a smirk on his face that was disturbing and had alerted everyone that he must have known what was going on. If not, why the sudden appearance? Why was he here in the hospital all of a sudden? “What are you doing here? What do you want this time around?” Rachel ran towards him looking like she would claw at his face but rather he was calm when he watched her.But then his calm expression told her something different. He felt untouchable and if she was to touch him, it felt like her hands would burn off.“Easy, I am here for a different purpose,” Harrison said after a while. He usually enjoyed seeing the kind of expression on their faces. It gave him so much delight in his chest when he knew they were so angry and unlike before, touching him was impossible for him.“Look here,” he ignored them to face Stephen as his expression turned cold. “I see the mess you have created and for
Hidden Fortune’s Heir Change of heart
Immediately after Harrison heard those words from Draco's mouth, he instantly shoved Stephen off the way just so he could pay close attention.He didn't expect them to give in easily. He had wanted to instill more fear in Draco after he had done such a background check about Chen. Chen was someone high in the gangster world that even Draco must fear. If Chen was in a cell, there was no way Draco would choose to walk free when he knew what would be waiting for him.All these are mere predictions, Harrison was certain he was right.“Speak up now!” He indulged him and quickly Draco took a hard gulp before speaking.“Stephen here… offered to give us two hundred thousand dollars if we wrecked the goods up. We have done it, but he ran away before paying us!” Draco explained briefly and a wave of shock splashed on everyone, even Harrison himself as he was able to hear the full detail.“Shut up! I didn't do that!” Stephen fought his way back to his feet, looking nervous as he spoke, but then h
Hidden Fortune’s Heir Have you forgotten?
“What?” Rachel and Linda gasped in shock, staring at the woman, expecting her to take back her words, but she didn't look like it. Rather, she looked as though if she was being asked to defend what she just said, she would do it with a full chest.“Is it okay if I come with you?” Grandmother said as carefully as she could, as she couldn't read Harrison’s expression. The latter was shocked, but his expression told her more. He was in a place to reject her offer, and she was sure of it.However, she didn't know the reason that drove her to the sudden urge of wanting to follow him. But she knew if she stayed with these people she called family she would either die sooner or later.“Is that what you want?” Harrison replied. He had no grudges against her, even though she had done him wrong. He had a soft spot for her because she was old and had a few years to live. If not for that fact, he wouldn't even bat an eye when she called out to him.“Yes, please. Yes, I want to come with you.” The
Hidden Fortune’s Heir Torturing a body
Arriving at an eight-star hospital, Harrison took Grandmother in his arms and ran into the hospital. Her weight was nothing to him as held her and was running as though he wasn't carrying anything.The woman's condition turned worse all of a sudden and he feared she might not make it, so he had to drive fast to the hospital.“Just try to breathe. I will get you to the doctor.” He assured her as he then pushed the door to the entrance so hard that a crisp sound echoed around the place. It was as though the door would be ripped off its hinges, but then it only flung open and Harrison walked in with the old woman.Quickly the nurses who saw this pushed a stretcher towards him, and he dropped her gently on it. “Take care of her, please.” He pleaded with the nurses, looking nervous as he also helped them push the stretcher heading towards a ward.“Don't worry sir. She will be in good hands.” The nurses assured him and soon after they arrived at a ward, they took over and left him outside.
Hidden Fortune’s Heir Real Intentions
Their eyes glinted with curiosity as they turned to look at the machine that just made a beep sound. They could see a sign signifying there was a pulse. The line was moving slowly, and the beep sound echoed again.Beep!This time the pulse increased from just a beep to two, and then there was more. The machine gave a reading and everyone stared at each other, dumbfounded. The woman was now breathing compared to before, and it felt like a miracle just happened.“Is she alive?” Harrison's eyes widened as he thought his senses were playing tricks on him and wanted someone to snap him back to reality or tell him that what he was seeing was true. His body kept vibrating until the doctor held his hand.“Sir, I think you have performed a miracle!” The man smiled as he grabbed his shoulder and kept jerking Harrison continuously with a smile that couldn't fade away on his face.Just now he was doing the opposite of what he was doing, choking Harrison violently, but now he was praising him che
Hidden Fortune’s Heir Do you think she will forgive me?
“My husband, Francis, has been so greedy, especially in times of trying to acquire wealth. Caroline's parents were his best friends, yet he plotted to take over their company. I tried to stop him. I tried to talk some sense into his head, but he never listened to me.” Grandmother explained, and he could feel the truth in her words.Also, there was a fact that she wouldn't think of lying to cover things up when she knew he could find out just like how he found out the secret in the first place.“I apologize for what he did. Maybe I should have reported him back then, but I didn't have an option. Ooh, what am I even saying?” She paused as she realized if she kept on talking, it wouldn't lead anywhere. She wasn't making sense. Why try to make herself look righteous when it was done already? “I apologize for all the trouble my family has caused you.” She said instead and Harrison sighed.She wasn't making sense at first but even at that, he allowed her to vent all that was on her chest u

The end
“You must have thought you were way too smart to be dealt with. You got me so bad that I thought I was done for. I have never faced an opponent like you and for that, I’ll give you a ten. You are damn good!” Harrison said with a hint of mockery in his tone and Edward became pissed.However, he tried to think about what went wrong to make his plan fail and how it was so hard for him to figure out what was going on. In a thousand years, he would never expect someone as low as Ramon to be able to exceed him in intellectual strategy.“What? Don’t tell me you are spacing out at such times. And why weren’t you able to figure out what was going on? I mean, you have cameras watching, don't you?” Harrison said sarcastically.Edward felt pressured and it felt like the right time for Harrison to make it harder on him. After all, Harrison suffered the same fate earlier.“How did I not figure this out?” Edward finally said, scolding himself.“Because you are so dumb to notice.” Harrison fired at h

A miscalculated plan
Being indoors for a long while had made their senses a bit shaken off and when they had to adjust to a sudden brightness, they couldn’t help but blink their eyes multiple times.Everyone was shocked to see someone had walked into a room. An unknown someone they didn’t know but were so desperate to see his face, yet their sight was failing to adjust to the light.However, after the figure spoke, every single effect of the sudden brightness was washed off and replaced with curiosity.Starting from the leg, everyone scanned the figure from the toe, slowly heading to his face. When they arrived at the finish point, they all nearly fell on their backs.“Ramon?” Everyone yelled seemingly as though they had seen a ghost. It had to be a ghost right, or maybe their senses were playing tricks on them? They just couldn’t figure it out as their jaws were wide open, almost dropping to the floor.“Jesus Christ! What the hell is this?” Edward yelled, shaking his head from side to side to see if ever

Boom!
Back inside the small cabin in the rural area.Edward and the others were seated on the couch watching the Television. They weren’t watching the news but something else. There were some wireless connected cameras fixed in some certain place while the television displayed each of those scenes that happened in each place Furthermore, there was a remote control in Edward’s hand, and he was able to make each scene that was showing in a mini spot on the screen occupy the whole screen, so everyone could have their view of what was happening.Right there, on the screen, it was showing that Harrison just walked into the hospital ward. Not only could Edward and the others watch what was going on, but they were able to hear the conversation that was going on.Meanwhile, Larry who was seated at the far end of the room was enjoying the show the most since he was the one who delivered the flower directly to her. He played his part so well that she was unable to recognize him. Of course, he was pu

Strange flowers
“Linda right?” Caroline asked, and the delivery man nodded at her before handing the flowers to her. She extended her hand and grabbed the vase. It was such a perfect piece as it had an ancient drawing sculptured on it. The material looked like glass, yet it was made of wood. The way it was polished alone was unique and must be a very costly piece.At once glance, Caroline took notice of it but what she was more invested about was how nice the flowers were. She couldn't resist the urge to dip her nose into it and allow the fragrance to waft into her nostrils.Bang!Just then the door was pushed open and Lucas pushed his head in. The moment he saw her with flowers he was shocked as he knew it wasn't there before and it wasn't like he saw anyone bring it in.That was when Caroline pulled out of the enjoyable feeling she was in. Her mind ran back to the lad who brought the flowers, and she wanted to thank him but after looking she noticed he was nowhere to be found. Rather, there was Lu

An apology
“Hello sis, how are you doing?” Linda's voice rang through the phone as soon as the call was picked up, and the receiver was left in shock. It took a while and there was no response. Nervously, Linda peeked glances at the phone to see if it was disconnected, but it wasn't.“Caroline? Are you there?” She called out again before a reply came through.“What do you want?” Caroline replied seemingly disgusted. “Are you calling to make more trouble? Remember I don't have that time at the moment, please.” She concluded and wanted to end the call when Linda spoke.“I am sorry.” She said and shockingly, Caroline couldn't bring herself to hang up. The words she just heard were too good to be true, yet it didn't feel like she was dreaming.Linda just apologized? Caroline started doubting her senses. She was unable to let herself fall for such a trap like before. She had witnessed too much and it was energy draining. Her stepmother pointed a gun at her and would have killed her if not for a mira

The callers intention
“Shit! The police department?” Whitman murmured the words out, as he would rather not be noticed by the caller. Moreover, everyone had their guard up thinking the place was surrounded by the police.There wasn’t any siren sound or any movement, so it must be an unnoticeable operation, right? Those were the thoughts that were running inside their heads as quickly Larry and Raymond took a peep at the window but there was no one outside.They felt a sigh of relief, but that didn’t quench their suspicion. They knew not to let their guard down. Never.“Yes, who am I speaking with?” Edward replied trying hard to keep his composure. He suddenly looked calm and collected like he wasn’t the same person who was nervous not long ago.Already he had speculated that whoever it was, it had to be someone who knew him. The number was private and after picking up, the caller said he was from the police department.After realizing all this, Edward wanted to laugh out loud, but he chose to play along fi

Stand down
“What’s the meaning of this? Why are you pointing a gun at my head?” Whitman was shocked by the turn of events. He didn’t expect them to come to his house and threaten him.“You are his ally ain’t you? I’ve seen you a couple of times with that brat called Harrison. Who knows, maybe you are here working for him undercover.” Larry spits his suspicion while Raymond nods his head in support.“Stand down!” Edward snapped but was being ignored. “I said bring the gun down!” He said again and yet no one paid a listening ear to him.“It’s the opposite. I am working with Edward here to bring Harrison down.” Whitman explained.“What? Don’t be shitting me. You are the same person who gave out our hideout to Harrison, and you want us to believe you? You should talk fast before I put four bullets into your thick skull!” Larry threatened.The look on his face was so cold, signifying his threats wasn’t a bluff. Already, he had adjusted the gun and had his finger wrapped around the trigger button. Any

Loyal to the young master
The tension became hot and it felt like air was sucked out of their lungs leaving them dry and vulnerable. That should be the time when they should bow their heads and beg for forgiveness, but the men didn’t look like they would.Though they were shocked by his words, there was no trace of fear radiating off them. It felt like they had gradually made up their minds to accept death.Noticing this, Whitman was quite stunned. He knew their loyalty was as tough as a rock, but in the face of death, anyone was supposed to shiver.Smiling, he pulled out a gun and cracked it, then pointed it at one of them.“Swear loyalty to me and I will spare your life.” He said instead as the thought of using them against Harrison would seem befitting to him.“Tch!” All the men spat at his face at once as though they were all in sync with each other. Their eyes were stern as they held nothing but disgust. If not for the fact that they were being tied, they would have lunged at him by now.“Wrap things up
