Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir She's Christian's mother 2
~Christian~My world froze and I lost track of time for a minute or two. The Chairman's mistress? An illegitimate son?. I shuddered, taken aback by the revelation that had just been thrown in my face..'There's a probability he knows where his mother is, if he tells you where his mother is, you find your brother. Pester him well enough, he'll reveal your answers to you' she continued saying, her words cutting deep into my flesh..I sensed Lauren hands hold me. Not for reassurance or for her own stability. It was for mine. I was numb, weak, unable to get my bearing.. I snatched my hands away from hers, unwelcoming her small kind gesture. It was too late. I didn't need it now, not anymore. Linda came closer, a triumph look in her face as she assessed mine.'You didn't think I'll know. Right?' she did a little clap. 'You should thank me for revealing such a huge secret to you. At least, I know you know the bane of your existence, honey. You're an illegitimate child.. Your mother was a ti

Lauren~Her laugh echoed through the room, directing unwanted attention to us. I rolled my eyes, my smile growing wider each passing second. 'You're such a character. That fact is yet to change' I mumbled, stabbing the chocolate whipped cake and stuffing quite an amount into my mouth.'Come on, Lauren. So you're denying that you've got nothing do with the great 'heir' of Forbes' Consortium. I saw it all over the news, girlie. He's quite invested in you. The way be tried to protect you from the reporters can never get off my head'.I giggled. 'That was months before' I got Ambushed by the paparazzi. They believed the rumor that we were actually together. I was heading to the office that day when I got noticed. From one to two, their numbers increased, causing me anxiety. He stepped up by the right time, taking me away from them. It was epic..those scenes you get to experience in movies.I flushed pink, heat spreading from my cheeks to the whole of my body. 'That was long ago. Things a
Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir A scandal?
~Christian~ Ava handed the invitations to me a bit reluctantly, causing me to question her hesitation. 'The invitation was brought by one of Rhyno's men, sir' she spilled in one breath. I tilted my head, looked upwards to watch her. 'I'm very much aware of that' 'They aren't so frien...' 'I know that, Ava. This is business, we should leave the love or hate emotions aside. Forbes is also going to benefit from this new opening. Right?' She nodded. 'Yes sir' Our convo was brought to an abrupt pause when Brian surfaced into my office. Once I saw him, I knew there was an information coming so i didn't take time to send Ava out for the briefest minute. Two information came in at once. First was the finding of the man who writes ridiculous articles about the Forbes and second was where exactly Linda visited when the Chairman collapsed and was in the hospital. The former interested me but the latter heightened my curiosity. I needed to know what happened. Although, the chairman tried t
Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir Scandalous Affair 2
~Christian~ My mouth dropped open in awe while I assessed the pictures in front of me. Most of them were blurry but that didn't stop me from recognizing the main character of this all. Of all the things I expected it to be, this was the least of them all. How can a woman like her decide to lose her dignity or reputation in the whole of America by going out with a man who is clearly not the Chairman? The first few pictures showed her, alongside another man having dinner in a kind of private restaurant which they only occupied. It was similar to the one I temporarily booked for Aiden's birthday. The rest confirmed my doubt about the duo being in a scandalous affair. There were images of them kissing, in semi intimate positions. 'Where did you say this was?' I asked Brian who still stood by my table. 'A private resort in Las Vegas, sir. She rented the whole resort for a whole week and stayed there with her lover..' I sucked in a breath, replaced the photos back into the envelope.. ',I
Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir Bruised
Eight Years Before ~Lauren~ 'I had to leave to protect him. He'd be in more danger with me if we're together' she said, her stares blank as they concentrated on the walls. Jordan was curled up in her arms, nuzzling around her chest area. It's funny how much bond they've managed to build in such short time. He trusted her so much, loved her extremely also. I was somewhat happy that he never had to feel the negative impact of not having any of his parents around. At least, the chest nut lady filled in that blank space. Her words however made me giggle unintentionally. 'You had to leave to protect him? How would you be able to protect someone you love if you're far away from them? I thought it doesn't work like that' We were in the patio, enjoying the cool breeze of the evening. It was a culture we made for ourselves every weekends when we're done with eating dinner and the stars on the skies are beginning to fight their way into visibility. She tilted her head, glanced at me for a
Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir Find out
Christian~My hands balled into fists, squeezing the sides of the envelope in return. 'Yes, sir' Brian nodded in acknowledgement to my orders. It was crazy, astonishing. My thoughts floated for a second, convincing me momentarily that the Chairman already knows about it. 'Wasn't that why he acted sober you asked about his wife's whereabouts?' my inner mind whispered.I straightened out, slid the envelope into one of my drawers, locked it and replaced the key back into my pockets. My index finger rested on my jaw and I struggled to think of something. Of a solution to this. 'Make your research on the man. Who exactly is he? Where is he from? And how they met?. Refer back to the resort they rented out to themselves for a whole week in Maldives, get to know what staff was present. Get as many information as you can'Brian furrowed his brows. 'That's going to be a little hard, sir''How many days do you need to get it done?' Impatience drooled my every word.'I'm not sure yet but the l
Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir Promises must be kept
Christian~Dora smiled from the distance. 'I had my reasons. Damien wouldn't let me have enough rest if I mentioned it to him. He'd be asking me every second when you're actually going to arrive' Humor underlined her words as she said them..I chuckled deeply, still patting Damien on the shoulders. 'If I were in his shoes, I would do the same thing.' .He finally let me go, giving me the grace to rise back to my feet. My legs wobbled a bit from the long minutes of staying in that crouched position. I held the table for balance then eventually made it to my seat..'If you stand too long, your legs might start to have some funny reactions to it' I mentioned.Dora rolled her eyes, stepping farther into the office and settling on one of the sofas.'The visit was quite a surprise..''Damien and I were coming back from Tiffany's so we decided to stop by'My forehead wrinkled at the name. 'I never knew you both developed that close relationship. It's beautiful though.' I sincerely said, reme
Rejected as a Commoner, Wanted as an Heir If only I knew he's going to be here
~Lauren~I inhaled the floral scent of the air within the compound while assessing the building of the newly built medical school. It was a standard one. Aesthetic enough to the eyes. The building was made with mostly glasses, allowing it to seem very delicate. With my head held high, I proceeded to walk into the event hall when my eyes caught a familiar figure. A small smile found way to my lips. 'Lauren..' Joan yelled out my name from the hall entrance, her face lighting up amusingly. She ran towards my direction, squeezing me into an involuntary hug. 'You made it!' she beamed, grabbing my palm simultaneously.'Like I have an option. I already promised you. I couldn't break it' I responded, now embracing her in a voluntary hug. She reciprocated the act, squeezing me real hard than the first time. Once I started struggling to breathe, I pulled away. She searched behind me as if expecting a second party. My forehead creased in confusion while I followed her line of sight. 'Is there
