Elizabeth rubbed her eyes lightly. She couldn't understand why it was Jason that had come to wake her up.
"Did Harlan tell you to wake me?"Jason frowned, "why are you sleeping here by this time? And... What Harlan are you referring to?"Elizabeth looked around, she glanced out through the window. It was pitch dark. She looked back at Jason in confusion."What's the time?""Some minutes to eight, that's why I am asking you if you are okay," Jason said with genuine interest. If there was any girl he likes, then it is Elizabeth.Elizabeth tried to locate Harlan from where he had been sitting, she couldn't find him."Is everything okay?" Jason asked the bewildered Elizabeth.Elizabeth couldn't believe Harlan left without looking for her. She took her phone to see if Harlan had called her while she slept, but she hadn't missed his calls."If you are sick, go to

Lazily, Harlan covered himself with the duvet and took his phone. He was about to check his messages when his phone rang. He cleared his throat before answering the call."Good morning, Sir. Are you still at home? I have to see you," Jack said at the other end."I'm at home. I will come out to see you in a few minutes."Harlan got down hurriedly from the bed and went to take his bath. He pulled on his clothes quickly before going to the sitting room to see Jack who had his hands in his pocket as he watched the doorway which Harlan was going to pass."Is there any problem?" Harlan asked as he ran the comb through his hair."Actually, Mr Smith directed me to give you a list of companies he has made you the CEO of, but that isn't the only thing. I noticed a car trailing you yesterday."Harlan's heart skipped a beat, "trailing me? For what?" That question wasn't sensible, but hell, Harlan was trying to u
Return of the hidden heir Chapter 46: Harlan as a CEO
"Sir, I thought you were schooling outside the country.""You know the college I am going to now, don't you?""I do, Sir... But, it's kinda unbelievable.""The food is ready, Sir." Maria announced, interrupting the conversation.After they had had breakfast, Jack drove Harlan to the first place on the list he had given him. It was a company that Mr Smith had founded ten years ago, even though it hadn't been long, the company was doing better than most ones that had been founded by other people before it. Harlan thought Mr Smith is an extraordinary and skillful man to have achieved this company too."The secretary is a woman in her late twenties, she has been working here for the past five years, so she probably knows as much information as you might need to know about," Jack explained as he pulled over in the parking lot.Harlan nodded. He got out of the car. With one of his hands thrust in his pocke
Return of the hidden heir Chapter 47: A gentleman
As the security men moved closer to Harlan to hold him, Harlan's picture showed on the screen. The security men stopped walking, shocked at the picture they were seeing on the screen. The gentleman standing in front of them is the same man on the screen. The screen soon went off."Are you deaf? I said you should drag this man out before the CEO comes in!" Paige yelled at the security men, she had not seen the picture of Harlan on the screen.The security men bowed at Harlan, "welcome here, Sir," they said at once.Harlan wasn't looking at the security men, he fixed his eyes on Paige, watching her reaction. She had an angry look on her and Harlan found himself wondering if no one had ever told her how monstrous she looks when she frowns."Are you out of your mind? Get this man out!" She yelled.Harlan shook his head slowly, "you are senseless.""Sir, I will go and send for the secretary
Return of the hidden heir Chapter 48: Say it again
For a moment, the beating stopped and Harlan was able to raise his head. He could see Jason's grinning face."Hi, Liza, let's get out of here, I have something to tell you," Jason said, as he walked over to Elizabeth who was shocked to see Harlan being beaten like that."You are the most senseless person I have ever seen," Elizabeth said when Jason went to her. She walked over to Harlan. She bent slightly and stretched her hand to Harlan so that he could hold it and get up.There were gasps from the students as they watched Harlan and Elizabeth. Jason frowned."Liza?" He called but Elizabeth didn't look in his direction.Harlan wasn't going to hold Elizabeth's stretched hand but he didn't want to embarrass her by rejecting her help in the midst of everyone. He held it and stood up."Liza, what the hell are you doing?" Jason snapped and yanked her hand from Harlan's hand.Elizabeth threw him a hateful glare before holding Harlan's hand again and walking away with him. Like it would a
Return of the hidden heir Chapter 49: Fairness
Elizabeth's scream wasn't getting into Harlan's ears, he was so damn focused on paying back what Jason did to him earlier. Her scream had attracted attention as a few people ran towards them. No one in the college doesn't know Harlan and even though they couldn't see who he was beating up, they rushed at Harlan and got him away from the person. That is what he gets for being poor. Even without knowing what happened, he was considered the guilty one.Jason groaned and tried to stand up. His face was swollen. He could feel all the muscles of his face sending pain to all parts of his body. He groaned again and after a few attempts, he could stand on his feet. It was not until he had stood up that everyone knew it was Jason that Harlan had been dealing with. They gasped at the new face Jason now hard. It looked awful."This loser is never going to get out of this," someone whispered, scared on Harlan's behalf.
Return of the hidden heir Chapter 50: Harlan is in trouble
Jason tossed the towel he had used in drying his hair on the bed, glanced at the clock on the wall and let out a sigh. Tomorrow, it will be Saturday and he still doesn't know who Harlan Smith is. Not as if he can know him anyway. Cause, how is he supposed to find Harlan Smith? Go to the broadcasting station and tell anyone who cares to listen that he needs to find Harlan Smith? No. That would be the most insane thing to do.He glanced at his reflection in the mirror. The few marks on his face served as a reminder that Harlan had almost knocked him out yesterday. He couldn't help but wonder where Harlan got his energy. He had been unable to defend himself yesterday because he didn't imagine that Harlan would think of fighting with him, talking less of having the guts to punch him.He shrugged off the thought of Harlan Smith and somehow, his mind went back to what Elizabeth had said the previous evening."Even if he wants to use me, I will gla
Return of the hidden heir Chapter 51: He can't be Harlan Smith
"This is crazy," was the only thing Harlan could say before walking away from her.If she were not a robot, Harlan would have bet on anything that she is insane. He called Kelvin."Man, are you at home?" "Yeah. I am bored.""Let's hang out. I will come and pick you up," Harlan said and walked outside to his car.Some minutes later, he was pressing the doorbell by Kelvin's house. Kelvin was dressed by the time when he came out. He grinned at Harlan."Seems you got into a fight," he pointed at Harlan's head.Harlan rubbed his head, a sharp pain reminded him that he shouldn't be putting his hand closer to the wound yet."Yeah. Jason was at it again. But yesterday, I didn't allow him to get away with it. I got back at him.""The first time I will be hearing you say that.""Gotta act like that, guy. I don't get angry ea
Return of the hidden heir Chapter 52: Enemy
"What the heck!" Someone exclaimed."I knew it!" The woman who had attended to Harlan and Kelvin earlier shouted."I knew he meant trouble the moment I laid my eyes on him," she walked over to him, giving him a look in disgust."I am sorry, I will get it fixed right away," Harlan said, desperate to leave the place."What are you doing with Harlan Smith?" The woman asked Harlan in a whisper.Harlan stared at her in surprise, "what do you mean?""What else does my question suggest that I mean? I know the other guy you came with is Harlan Smith, but I am yet to know what your relationship with him is. You are a troublemaker and anyone can notice that from the way you are dressed," the woman said, still keeping her voice low."I don't understand what you are talking about. I am going to get people to get this place fixed." Harlan said and walked briskly away.He was grateful t
