RISE OF THE INVINCIBLE HEIR CHAPTER 41
The thugs exchanged wary glances before the stocky thug snapped. “Tread carefully, you idiot. Do you think $150,000 is an amount to joke with?”“You didn’t let me finish.” He shot back at the thug then continued, “I’ll pay you the money but in exchange, you must do three things.” he held up three fingers as he spoke.“One, you will apologize to Mrs Hannah and Mr Ben here for your actions towards them.” Hannah and Mr. Ben shared surprised glances. Why was Adrian acting so confident? The two thugs scoffed in amusement but the leader remained silent as he studied Adrian with an unreadable expression.“Two,” Adrian spoke again, this time his face hardened and his voice became more on edge. “Each of you will break your own noses just like your leader did to Mr. Ben.”A malicious glint ran through the bald thug's eyes as he sputtered. “Do you want to die? What kind of nonsense are you spewing from your mouth?!”Adrian smirked but ignored the thug’s outburst as he finished, “Three, you will

Mr. Ben and Hannah heaved sighs of relief as the tension in the diner eased substantially. Gratitude shown brightly on their faces as they looked at Adrian, their savior. Hannah didn’t hesitate, she got to her feet and rushed towards him. “You saved us.” she reached out and squeezed Adrian’s hands tightly. “Thank you so much.” Mr. Ben, still affected by the throbbing pain in his nose, rose a bit slower, swaying slightly. He placed a hand against the wall to steady himself before slowly walking toward Adrian. “Thank you, again, Adrian,” he said, his voice filled with sincerity. “My wife and I will be indebted to you for the rest of our lives.” Adrian offered them a smile. “It’s no problem at all. I’ll do it again if I can.” he paused for a moment as a thought crossed his mind. “Mr. Ben, I remember telling you that I’d give you $20,000 to take care of your family’s needs until I find a suitable job for you.” Mr. Ben nodded in confirmation. “Yes, that’s true, Adrian.” With that, A

“Stop here.” Adrian instructed Jonah as they reached an intersection. “My apartment is a few blocks away and parking this car there would raise a few eyebrows.”“I’ll be back shortly.” he told Jonah as he grabbed his new suit and got out of the car. Then, he retrieved his moped from the trunk and drove it towards his apartment while Jonah waited patiently for him.A few minutes later, Adrian returned, now clad in a tailored black suit and slacks. Unfortunately, he had forgotten that he needed new shoes, so he had no choice but to wear his old, worn-out ones. “Head over to Serenity apartments,” Adrian informed Jonah as he got into the car again. “That’s where Anita lives.”“Yes, young master.” Jonah nodded, igniting the car which roared to life as he pulled away from the curb.Less than ten minutes later, the car came to a stop in front of Anita’s apartment building. Jonah met Adrian's gaze in the rearview mirror. "If you don't mind, young master, I can personally chauffeur you and you
RISE OF THE INVINCIBLE HEIR CHAPTER 44
Evelyn Davies stepped out from a black Audi RS7 with a proud smile on her red-painted lips. The milk-colored Prada gown she wore clung to her slender figure and was complemented by her artificially colored platinum blonde hair, which cascaded down her back in waves. She took out her phone to snap a quick selfie, but her smile faltered as she spotted the familiar figures of her cousin, Anita and her aunt-in-law, Regina emerging from a car that looked to be better than her boyfriend’s. Her brown eyes narrowed in envy. She had always been jealous of Anita because she surpassed her in a couple of things; academics, beauty, elegance. Her plan for the evening had been to show off her new wealthy boyfriend in front of everyone at the party and get all the attention to herself, but looking at the luxury car Anita had come in with, it seemed she also had a wealthy boyfriend of her own. ‘Why does she have to outdo me every time.’ she whined bitterly. Henry Cooper, her boyfriend, noticed her

The tension in the air increased as Anita watched the exchange between Adrian and Henry, her expression a mix of admiration and worry. She admired Adrian’s confidence, noticing it was a dominant characteristic trait in him, but a part of her worried that he might be getting in way over his head.“Adrian, are you sure about this bet?”she whispered, her voice hushed. “The suit isn’t yours, so how are you be sure it’s genuine?”“My friend would never lend me a knockoff suit. Trust me.” Adrian stated firmly.“Why the stalling?” Evelyn snorted at Adrian and Anita. “Don’t tell me you’re backing out now?” she rolled her eyes dismissively.“Nope,” Adrian declared. “I never back down from a challenge. You should be asking your boyfriend that question.”“Don't be ridiculous,” Henry muttered in distaste. “I’ll easily win this bet. You’ll see.”“Listen up,” Evelyn stepped forward, her manicured nails tapping rhythmically on her phone screen. “Here's how we'll go about this,” she began as she scr
RISE OF THE INVINCIBLE HEIR CHAPTER 46
The Davies mansion exuded an air of Opulence and grandeur as men and women dressed in designer suits and dresses, mingled and chattered among themselves. The interior was covered with white and gold decorations which stretched from the foyer to the grand living room where the party was being held. Waiters dressed in white and black uniforms weaved through the crowd, with their tray of champagne flutes professionally balanced on their hands.Anita felt a wave of nostalgia wash over her as she stepped into the room. It had been months since she last visited the familiar mansion. Adrian, beside her took in the scenery, a curious yet relaxed expression written on his face. He hadn’t been to many elite events yet, so this was all new territory to him. But now that he was a trillionaire heir, he would have to get used to attending even greater parties in the near future, some which would personally be hosted by him.A waiter came by and Adrian took two flutes of champagne.“Here you go,” he

“The moment we have all gathered for is here.” Esther Davies announced, a smile plastered on her thin red lips. “Please join me in celebrating my dear husband and patriarch of the Davies’ family, Lloyd Davies as he arrives!” A spotlight immediately fell on the grand staircase, illuminating it to reveal a silver haired man dressed in an impeccable white Boglioli suit. The tap-tap-tap sound of his gold rimmed cane echoed throughout the room as he descended the stairs in slow, calculating steps—This was Lloyd Davies. Although, he was slightly bent over due to age, one could still feel the aura of a formidable businessman that he exuded. The crowd elicited in a round of cheers as Lloyd walked towards the stage and with effortless sophistication, settled down on the beautifully crafted chair that was specially designed for him. Grandma Esther glided towards him, handing him the microphone to greet the guests. Lloyd Davies cleared his throat and a smile stretched across his face. “Tha

Anita shifted uncomfortably on her feet, feeling an inexplicable amount of nervousness washing over her as all eyes including her grandfather’s turned towards her. “Didn’t you hear your cousin, Anita?” Grandma Esther spoke through the silence when she saw that Anita hadn’t yet uttered a word. “Come over here with your gift this instant!” “Y-yes, grandma.”Anita nodded in a shaky voice. She was completely unsure of how to go about this situation. On one hand, if she presented Adrian’s cheap gift to her grandfather then he would be deeply displeased, and on the other hand, if she didn’t present anything, he would be more disappointed in her than he already is. After a moment of contemplation, she decided to go with the latter. According to her grandfather, it was better to give nothing at all than to give something of no worth. Before Adrian could convince her to take his gift, Anita was already approaching her grandfather. She shared nervous glances with her mother before she muste

Adrian was lying shirtless and motionless on the operating table, his eyes were shut tightly, his skin extremely pale and clammy, and his lips had a slight blue tinge to them.His chest was still, and a tube connected to a ventilator was passed through his nose to help him breathe properly.The surgical team had also cleaned the blood that poured from his chest, but it was still bleeding, and it became a serious cause for concern.Doctor Arnold was momentarily frozen when he saw Adrian, and he had to blink severally to make sure he wasn’t imagining things. Never would he have expected that the patient he was treating was his boss, who had left the hospital completely fine just a few hours ago.His shock finally wore off and he sprang into action.For the next approximately five hours, Doctor Arnold and his team of surgeons performed an open heart surgery on Adrian to remove the bullet.Just as they were rounding up with the surgery, something happened.Adrian’s heart rate visibly inc
CHAPTER 254
Adrian’s eyes widened as it dawned on him that a bullet had struck him, and he stumbled backwards from the scorching pain that shot up his chest. He clutched his heart and felt the warm liquid seeping through his hands. When he looked down, he saw that the crimson color was quickly spreading throughout his chest and dripping down his hands at an even faster rate.He turned towards the direction the bullet came from to see if he’d spot anyone, but no one was there. The streets were empty and quiet, save for the noise from the bikers.Kai had seen Adrian turning, so he quickly turned around and pressed himself to the wall to properly blend with it. A cruel smirk appeared on his face as he replayed what he had done. He raised the gun to his line of sight and stared at it with a hint of fascination in his eyes.“Finally,” he whispered maliciously. “It’s done.”With that, he risked another peek at Adrian and saw that he was no longer looking towards his direction.He quickly tucked his

Finally calling it a night, Adrian left the bar with Ashley walking beside him. He had decided to escort her to where her car was parked before going on his own way.The moment they were about to cross to the other side of the road, the loud roaring engines of motorcycles echoed in the air.They both looked to see a good number of motorcycles heading towards them, and in a split second they were surrounded.The hairs at the back of Ashley’s neck prickled her skin and she subconsciously held onto Adrian’s arm.“Adrian, what’s happening?” She whisper in hushed urgency as her eyes frantically darted around the motorcycles that circled them. “Do you know these people?”Adrian followed her line of sight as he too searched the faces of the men on the Harley Davidson motorcycles.His brows furrowed as he couldn’t recognize any of them. That was until the person who looked to be the leader stepped out and revealed the person cowering behind him.It was the man from earlier, the one who had ch
CHAPTER 252
A sliver of unease began to flicker within the man as Adrian said the words he had been dreading to hear.He lost the bet.The punishments.His eyes frantically darted around as though searching for someone to help him out of the situation, but no one seemed to be on his side.“If I could remember clearly,” Adrian continued, his lips tugging into a smirk as he saw the panic that began to appear on the man’s face. “You said the loser of the bet would have to grovel before the winner and lick the shoes of everyone here. So what are you waiting for? Begin already.”“Yeah,” the patrons echoed in unison and began chanting. “Do the bet! Do the bet!”The man internally shook his head. There was no way he’d lick the shoes of everyone at the bar. He had only agreed to the punishment because he thought it would be Adrian doing it.“I have to escape,”‘the man muttered internally. His eyes darted around again, this time searching for the exit. When he spotted it, his body barked into motion as

Adrian grimaced as he perceived the foul stench that emanated from the man’s vomit. He instantly took off the shirt, and luckily, he was wearing an undershirt underneath which hadn’t been hit by the vomit. He used the clean sides of his shirt to wipe the bits of biking off his face and then threw it to the floor.At this time, the minor tipsiness in his eyes had already cleared off and he could think clearly again, so his movements weren’t slowed down.His gaze shifted to the man and he stifled a laugh as he saw the drama the man was displaying.First, he had taken off his clothes, and was sweating profusely while repeatedly murmuring, “Too hot,” under his breath.Secondly, he fell off his seat and was instead rolling on the floor as he writhed like someone in pain.Some people who found the scene incredibly funny pulled out their devices and began to record.While the other patrons were more empathetic, and filled with pity for the poor man.They turned their gazes to Adrian, expect
CHAPTER 250
Everyone watched with undivided attention as the man climbed down the chair and made his way to the bar.Once he reached the counter, he tapped it a few times to get the bartender’s attention. The bartender, who had been busy mixing a couple of drinks, looked up and raised a brow in inquisitiveness.“What can I get for you, sir?” He asked politely.“Ten shots of Devil Springs mixed with Everclear, please,” the man replied loud enough for everybody to hear.And gasps erupted from the patrons.Devilsprings was known to be one of the strongest alcoholic vodkas ever made, and wasn’t for the faint-hearted. It was already dangerous enough, but when mixed with Everclear, drinking it could be said to be almost suicidal.Ashley also gasped beside Adrian and looked at him, eyes wide in alarm. “Adrian, that man is completely out of his mind!” She whisper-yelled, and panic seeped through her voice. “Devilsprings is not something to be trifled with. I even know someone who had died from drinking
CHAPTER 249
The man’s eyes flashed with annoyance, but then he masked it with a challenging smirk. “You can’t tell me what I can or cannot do,” he scoffed as he gave Adrian a disdainful once over. “You’re just a loser.”Adrian shrugged as though the words merely bounced off his shoulders. “Call me whatever you want, but don’t dare bother my girlfriend again.”The man folded his bulky arms across his chest and the smirk on his lips widened aa he openly checked Ashley out, disregarding Adrian’s words.Ashley’s grip around Adrian’s arm tightened and she shifted on her feet as the man’s lustful stare sent bad shivers down her spine. “Pretty lady, I have a proposal for you,” the man spoke up again, after he was done gawking at Ashley shamelessly. He rubbed his lips while licking them as he continued.“Ditch this loser boyfriend of yours, and come to me. I’ll give you whatever you wabt and turn your life around.”Ashley rolled her eyes at the cockiness in the man’s tone, and her gaze met his squarely.
CHAPTER 248
Adrian sat a bit more upright on the sofa as he glanced up, his gaze steadily meeting Regina’s. “I’ve not done that yet. He’s fainted, so he’s been revived. I’ll take him to prison once that happens.”Regina huffed and crossed her arms. “Him being the culprit, doesn’t make you innocent,” she muttered bluntly.“You still had a role to play in what happened to Anita, because you aren’t rich enough to protect her. I still stand by my earlier statement. You don’t deserve to be near my daughter, so leave.”Adrian’s eyes flashed with fury and disbelief. He knew Regina had always been an unreasonable person, but this was just too much.“Are you serious right now?” He echoed in incredulity. “You’re still blaming me for Anita’s accident?”“Of course,” Regina shot back, her voice rising slightly. “If you weren’t so useless, then a brat like Nathan wouldn’t have been able to harm a single hair on her head. She’s better off without you, so just get out for crying out loud!”“No,” Adrian refused,

Blaze hesitated for a moment before his voice finally sounded through the receiver. “If that’s what you want, master,” he conceded. “I know there’s definitely an important reason why you made this decision, and I hope whatever it is gets sorted in time.”“Thank you for understanding, Blaze,” Adrian responded with a firm nod. “I’ll talk to you later.”With that he hung up the phone and leaned back against the back rest of the couch, and his mind swirled with thoughts for a moment before exhaustion overtook him and his eyes drooped close.Meanwhile, on another side of Wibston, Lawrence Smith was having a fit of rage as he reeled from the aftermath of his defeat to Adrian.Kai, on the other hand, stood a few meters away from Lawrence, while clutching his side. Despite the pain traveling up his body, he barely registered it due to the anger swirling inside him. His fight with Adrian replayed over and over in his head and he couldn’t still believe Adrian had won the fight. But even more
