RISE OF THE INVINCIBLE HEIR CHAPTER 98
“I’ll do that right away, young master,” Jonah replied without hesitation and the line went dead. Miles, Skylar, the manager, and the rude sales assistant exchanged amused glances as they looked down on Adrian, thinking he was bluffing. “Cut the act, loser,” Skylar spat. “You’re not fooling anyone here.” The rude sales assistant joined in, sneering. “It’s not too late to take up the manager’s offer to compensate you and save the last shred of self respect you have.” “The offer is off the table!” The manager declared in a derisive tone. “His money, if it’s even his at all, will be refunded to him. I won’t have a lowlife like him buying any of our precious jewelry. He'll just soil them with his poor hands.” As the group jeered at him, Adrian remained silent, his expression calm, almost bored. On the other hand, a million thoughts of how to teach Adrian a lesson, swirled through Miles’ mind, and he contemplated calling his father and reporting Adrian’s bashfulness to him. But af

As Adrian stepped out of the jewelry store, he slipped the invitation from the mayor into his pocket. His first gift for Anita was secured, but there was more to do. An idea struck him, and he quickly pulled out his phone to call Jonah. “Hello young master,” Jonah answered on the first ring. “I trust the mayor was able to make it to the jewelry store in time, as you requested?” “Yes, Jonah,” Adrian affirmed. “The issue has been resolved. “That’s good to hear,” Jonah exhaled in relief. “Is there anything else I can help you with?” “Actually, there is. I’m looking for a place to take Anita for Valentine’s Day—a place that’s truly special. Preferably a restaurant.” There was a brief pause from the other end, as Jonah smiled knowingly. He cleared his throat and finally replied. “As a matter of fact, I have the perfect place in mind, young master. It might interest you to know that Alpha hotel, a subsidiary of Alpha group, has the best and most luxurious restaurant in the entire r

“Perfect,” Adrian rubbed his hands together and leaned forward. “ I’d like everything to be arranged with the utmost care—from the restaurant to the service to the food. It all needs to be impeccable. But there’s one more thing; when I arrive with my wife tonight, she’s going to wonder how I could afford such a luxurious dinner, considering my cover up identity as a jobless average joe. We’d have to come up with a believable explanation that quells her curiosity. Is that understood?” “Clearly understood, young master.” Leon replied confidently. “I’ll have the staff reserve the entire rooftop restaurant for your dinner. And I’ll personally ensure that everything is perfectly set in place, so your dinner can be a memorable one.” “I expect nothing less,” Adrian said seriously as he picked up the teacup and sipped his tea until its last drop. “Now, tell me more about this hotel. I want to know everything.” About half an hour later, Adrian was done with his

Stephanie stood frozen, her breath catching in her throat as the cold liquid soaked through her designer dress, and dripped down to her expensive shoes. Her mind raced, and her shock was quickly replaced by deep rage. “You bloody animal!” She shrieked, her cheeks burning with hot fury as she raised her hand to slap Adrian. But before she could make contact, Adrian caught her wrist just mere centimeters from his face. “Don’t you dare,” he hissed, his grip on her arm tightening slightly. His eyes bore into hers with a cold intensity. “You can’t just behave however you please and think you’ll get away with it. This isn’t business as usual.” “Let go of me, you bastard!” Stephanie seethed, yanking her hand free when Adrian finally loosened his grip. She took a step back, her chest heaving with indignation as the escalating tension caught the attention of the patrons in the bar and they turned to watch, their eyes alight with curiousity. Matt, who had been watching the scene unfold, quick
RISE OF THE INVINCIBLE HEIR CHAPTER 102
Matt let out a strangled cry as he clutched his legs at the unbearable pain that coursed through them. His face contorted with agony, and tears welled up in his eyes. The manager, his expression still devoid of any warmth towards Matt, grabbed him by the collar and dragged him out of the bar, leaving behind a pool of something that looked like urine, and the sudden foul stench that permeated the air confirmed it. The sound of Matt's groaning and whimpering could still be faintly heard in the distance even after they had left. Stephanie's face paled as she stared at the entrance where Matt had just been dragged out of in disbelief. The horror of what had just happened played out in her mind, and she realized that she had severely underestimated Adrian, thinking he was still the same loser as before. Fear coursed through her veins as Leon’s icy eyes was now staring at her. “Apologize to Mr. Young,” he commanded, his voice leaving no room for defiance. “And then leave this hotel immedia

Leon completely ignored Henry and Evelyn’s presence, acting as though they didn’t exist, and gestured for Adrian and Anita to follow him. Adrian nodded and offered Anita his arm with a warm smile. “Shall we?” Anita returned his smile, her heart beating with anticipation as she took his arm. They began to follow Leon, and Adrian made sure to step on the dollar bills Henry had thrown at his feet earlier and crinkle them until they were almost torn. Evelyn and Henry were left standing in the middle of the lobby, dumbfounded infuriated and humiliated as the elevator doors closed, shutting them out. Minutes later, the elevator dinged open and Adrian and Anita stepped out of it and onto the rooftop terrace of the hotel. The moment Anita set foot in the restaurant, she let out a gasp of awe. The place was adorned with beautiful red and white decorations that perfectly befitted the Valentine’s Day theme. Soft classical music was being played in the background by a female violinist and this

Adrian reached out just in time, and knocked the fork from Anita’s grasp before she could take a bite of the cherry pie. The fork clattered to the floor, and Anita was startled as she looked up at him.“Adrian? What’s wrong?” she asked, her voice laced with confusion.Adrian’s gaze flickered to the phone in his hands and back to Anita with a serious expression. “Leon just told me they made a mistake with the pie and it’s not good enough for eating.”Anita frowned and was about to say something when Leon rushed towards their table, his expression tense and urgent. “I’m deeply sorry for the inconvenience, Sir, Ma’am, it seems our chefs were careless in preparing this dessert. It’s highly unacceptable and I’ll ensure this doesn’t happen again. Kindly exercise patience, a replacement is being made for you as we speak.”He then turned to Adrian. “Sir, please can I have a word with you in private?Adrian nodded, his expression still serious. “Of course.” His gaze flickered to Anita. “Anita,

Henry and Evelyn kept writhing in their seats and within moments, the discomfort they felt became unbearable and they doubled over in pain.An unpleasant stench of fart suddenly permeated the air as Henry let out a strained groan, and Evelyn gasped in horror as she released a loud fart of her own that echoed through the restaurant. The foul odor of her and Henry’s farts quickly spread and this drew the attention of the other customers.“Ew, what’s that horrible smell?” a woman at a nearby table exclaimed, covering her nose.“It smells like a sewage pipe bursted in here!” another lady added, her nose crinkling as she gagged.“It’s certainly hazardous inhaling something as awful as this. Jeez!” someone spat in disgust.“I think it’s them,” a man yelled, pointing toward Henry and Evelyn, who had both turned a shade of green as they tried to contain their embarrassment.A wave of murmurs erupted in the restaurant as the realization that it was indeed Henry and Evelyn, dawned on everyone.

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
CHAPTER 251
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,
CHAPTER 247
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
