“Leave me.” Stephen told John as he dismissed his right hand man.
John knew that Stephen would ask to be alone if it weren’t for an important reason. He quickly stood and left, bringing with him the documents that they had slowly gathered on the gangs.
“John, I want everything in three days.” Stephen said in a cold tone as his right hand man nodded and closed the door behind him.
Stephen quickly called his grandfather, anxious as he waited for the old man to pick up.
“Stephen?” Eldrich Cho asked, surprised that his grandson would call on a Sunday and at this time

Revenge of the Abandoned Heir When They Find Out
“You tricked me.” Amalia grumbled as she crossed her arms on her chest and glared at her soon to be sister-in-law. “You told me we would be having a fun night out and you invited these three idiots.” “She hasn’t acted this childish in years, it’s a miracle.” Robert Ke chuckled as he pointed at Amalia.“Ever since your fake death, Amalia has been cold, distant, and well, too mature for her own sake.” Edward Hao explained to his friend as he smiled. “They aren’t that bad.” Vanessa reasoned with Amalia. “Plus, Stephen said we can go to a bar. That will be fun.”“You both have work tomorrow, I doubt we can stay out that late.” Amalia grumbled.“We don’t have to stay out too late to have fun.” Stephen pointed out. “Plus, isn’t tomorrow your first day at Cho Industries as well?” Amalia frowned at the reminder, but nodded nonetheless.“I’m the Chairman’s daughter, no one will complain if I’m late.” Amalia tried her best to defend her initial declaration that it would not be a fun night.
Revenge of the Abandoned Heir New Team Member
After having a fruitful weekend, Stephen returned to the office, excited to finally complete the project they had been working on.“Stephen, good morning.” Andrew greeted, as they bumped into each other at the basement parking lot of Philip Tower.“Good morning, let’s get this project done and completed, I don’t want to end up cramming anything.” Stephen announced as they got into the elevator. Initially it was only Stephen, Andrew, and one more employee of Cho Industries, but when they got to the ground floor, several people squeezed in pushing Stephen and Andrew to the back.“Quite an eventful day for the Cho family, isn’t it.” A girl giggled as she gossiped with her friend.“Why did something new happen?” Her friend asked, seemingly oblivious to whatever rumors circulated. “The young lady of the Cho family starts work today, Amalia Cho.” The first woman said in a low voice. Since they were in a cramped space, whispering was useless and everyone on the elevator heard what she had
Revenge of the Abandoned Heir The Spare Heir
“Did you ask grandpa to put you in my team?” Stephen asked as he leaned back on his seat, glaring at his sister.Amalia looked at her brother and smiled.At that moment he exuded everything that a CEO would be like. His presence was intimidating and it demanded Amalia’s attention.Despite his simple identity at the moment, it was clear to Amalia that her brother was born to rule the business world. “Amalia, I asked you a question.” Stephen said in a stern tone. “Must I repeat myself?” “No.” Amalia said, shaking her head as she snapped out of her trance.“No, what?” He asked.“No I didn’t ask grandpa to put me in your team, I was shocked when he told me that I would be in your team. In all honesty I think it’s too much of a risk.” Amalia said with a frown as she worried about offending her brother.Stephen sighed and shook his head.“There is nothing we can do then. I trust grandpa’s decisions.” Stephen said in surrender.“You do?” Amalia asked, shocked that her brother was not going
Revenge of the Abandoned Heir Confrontation at the Cafeteria
Stephen and the rest of his team were seated in the cafeteria with Amalia. “Did we really have to eat here?” Andrew grumbled as he ate a spoonful of his lunch. “Everyone is staring.”“I told the Chairman that she would be treated like an ordinary employee, so we are eating here.” Stephen shrugged as he continued to ignore the people that were staring and whispering.“I’m sorry for making you all uncomfortable.” Amalia said as she frowned. “It’s not your fault, Amalia.” Carissa said as she looked around and glared at a group of women who quickly turned away. “Some people are just intense gossips.”“Shouldn’t they be afraid of her or something?” Isabelle asked. “If she was Stephen Cho then they would be.” Andrew answered. “But since Amalia is a woman, they aren’t quite sure how much power she has in the family.”“I can have them fired if I wanted to.” Amalia answered a little too loudly, earning her a look from Stephen. She knew that he was scolding her. “But I’m not like that, it
Revenge of the Abandoned Heir Andrew's Reaction
“What the fuck do you think you are doing, Amalia?” Stephen hissed as he pulled his sister to a secluded area that people rarely went to.“Oh please, don’t pretend you didn’t want to slap that bitch in the face, Stephen.” Amalia replied, pushing her brother away. “We both know you want to confront her about your death.”“This is not the time or place, Amalia.” Stephen said in a stern tone. “You know I would never scold you, but that was pushing it too far. Grandpa sent you to my team to learn, not to make a mess.”“A mess?! A mess?!” Amalia wasn’t shouting but her tone was quite powerful. “We both know that those people are at fault, you lost six fucking years

“Miss Amalia! Stephen! Andrew! Are you three alright?” Isabelle asked in a worried tone as soon as they arrived back from the Executive floor.“We’re fine, Isabelle.” Stephen said as he smiled, trying to show the woman that nothing was wrong.“We were so worried that the Vice President fired you and Andrew.” Natalia said as she carried a worried expression for the two men.“Awww, Natalia, do you actually care about us now?” Andrew teased, making Natalia roll her eyes at him.“Don’t get used to it.” Natalia scoffed, making everyone laugh.“It was a family affair. The person in charge is still my grandfather.” Amalia said in a stern tone. “If anyone is at fault if was Cookie Ye. She shouldn’t air our dirty laundry in public.”“So none of you were fired?” Michael asked as he looked worriedly at them.“Nope, relax kid.” Andrew said as she laughed at Michael. “Let’s just get back to work.” Stephen told them as he walked into his office.To his surprise Andrew followed him in and shut the
Revenge of the Abandoned Heir Meeting Uncle William
“Andrew knows.” Stephen told Vanessa as he drove away from her office, with two security vehicles trailing them at a distance. “He knows what?” Vanessa asked, giving Stephen a confused look. So much had happened on Stephen’s end that day, Vanessa felt like she couldn’t keep up. “He knows that I’m Stephen Cho and not Stephen Sy.” He sighed as he kept his eyes on the road. “Did this happen before or after your laptop got hacked?” She asked, as she gave him a bewildered look.“Not too sure when my laptop got hacked, but I’d like to forget about that for now.” Stephen said, ignoring the fact that his team went home frustrated and disappointed. No matter what they did they couldn’t get everything exactly the way it was. There were pieces of information that only Stephen’s laptop had. In the end, Stephen decided that it had been a long and difficult day for everyone, so he sent all of them home to get rest.“So how did Andrew find out?” Vanessa asked, confused by how things ended.“Gr
Revenge of the Abandoned Heir Dinner with William and Alona
Stephen glared at his uncle from across the table, his arms crossed on his chest.“I know, I should have told you.” The older man sighed as he stood up and walked closer to Stephen. At least his uncle knew that he was at fault, not Stephen.“Told me? You were fucking dating Alona when I died!” Stephen raised his voice at his uncle. “You’re old enough to be her father, are you that desperate to get rid of me?”“I am not trying to dispose of you, Stephen.” William Cho said in a stern tone.“Without me in the way, your son can inherit.” Stephen reminded his uncle, stating the facts as it lay before them. “I already told you, I can’t have a child.” William reminded his nephew as he pulled a document from his pocket. “Here.”Stephen looked at the folded piece of paper and hesitated. “You can fake that document.” Stephen hissed.“But I didn’t read it, have it authenticated by a doctor. Hell, go to the hospital where I had this done.” William Cho insisted as he shoved the document on Steph

“The Lu family is working with the underworld?” Hans asked as he glanced at his cousin in disbelief. Over the years the Underworld was one part of Marina City that both families had failed to control. If the Lu family managed to pull into their fold the leaders of the Underworld and Stephen was not the head of the Essen Mafia, they would have easily crushed the Cho family.“They don’t, sir. At least not yet.” John clarified as he spoke to the cousins over the phone.“What do you mean?” Hans asked.“No one person can rule over the underworld of Marina City, let alone this country.” John told Hans. “The city and this country is too diverse for any one person to take control. There is also the matter of people like the Lu and Cho families that make taking control even more difficult.”“Isn’t the Essen Mafia powerful enough to get them to follow?” Hans asked as he looked at his cousin.“Not as just the Essen Mafia.” Stephen said with a smile on his lips. “Huh?” Hans was now even more

New Threats
When Stephen declared the changes when it came to who would inherit the Cho family fortune in the future, Ina was no longer able to keep the reporters in line.Stephen decided to end the press conference there and move on.He, Vanessa, and Hans all left the stage and returned to Stephen’s office at the top floor. They were greeted by Paolo’s laughter as they entered the room, he was playing with Amalia and Robert. “Shouldn’t you be putting out the fire I just started downstairs?” Stephen asked as he gave Robert an amused look.His friend was never big on children.As a matter of fact, Robert was probably the one that was most against having children in their friend group. So it was quite the surprise for Stephen to see Robert happily playing with a child.“They don’t need me to put out that fire.” Robert chuckled as his phone began to ring next to him.“Shi-” Robert began to curse.“Language!” Both Hans and Stephen shouted, making Robert jump in surprise. “You two are going to scar

Next Heirs
Paolo Cho was a handsome child, it was something that the reporters couldn’t deny. He had received amazing genes from the Fredrikson, Ong, and Cho families, making him probably one of the best looking children around.But when Paolo Cho smiled he won the hearts of everyone in the crowd, even those that wanted to speak badly of the Cho and Fredrikson families.They might have been bribed by the Ong families and their allies, but there was no denying that Pablo Cho was happy.Pablo waved at the crowd and smiled. He then hugged his father as he shied away from the crowd again.People couldn’t blame the little boy, he had lived his entire life in hiding and now, all of a sudden he was in front of hundreds of people. Every single one of the reporters wanted to snap a photo of him or his father.

Press Conference 2
“Ah, I see you’ve noticed it.” Stephen said as he saw the confused expression on some of the reporters' faces.Not everyone had seen a DNA test in the past. Normally when businessmen and actors were trying to prove they were not the father of a child, the match would be much lower compared to what was flashed on the screen.“Allow me to explain for those who are seeing a DNA test for the first time.” Stephen said with a smile. “The report you are seeing behind me says that I am somehow related to Gabrielle Ong’s child. Now for those that are familiar with the genealogy of the Ong and Cho families, we are not in any way related.”The members of the media nodded as they slowly absorbed the information that Stpehen was telling them.Most were genuinely surprised at how kind Stephen sounded and at how willing he was to explain the situation to them.Normally, leaders in the same position as Stephen had little to no patience to explain trivial thing such as these, but Stephen took his tim

Press Conference Part 1
The parking lot of Philip Tower was filled with people chatting among themselves.It was no mystery what the Cho family was about to announce, they all knew that the biggest issue of that time was if Stephen Cho did or didn’t have an illegitimate child.Many people claimed that it was just a ploy of the Ong family to get their members out of jail.Others said that there was truth to it, especially since Gabrielle Ong was Stephen’s ex girlfriend.No matter what rumor people believed they all still wanted to be there. They all wanted to hear the truth and they all wanted to report it first. Inside the lobby of Philip Tower, Stephen looked out at the crowd that had formed.He had never expected that these many people would be interested in their personal lives. He thought that mostly gossip columnists would appear, but it seemed that every kind of reporter stood in their office’s parking lot.“You can’t seriously be surprised.” Hans said as he stood next to his cousin.“I just didn’t th

“We need to make a press release, the media will not leave us alone if we don’t.” Amalia told her brother as they sat around the meeting table in his office.Among those Stephen had invited were people he believed were crucial when it came to the matter of Paolo Cho’s identity.“Have you gotten the Ong family under control?” Stephen asked as he looked to his cousin.He knew that only a few days had passed and that Hans had his hands full watching over Paolo, but they needed to make sure that the Ong family wouldn’t cause them problems.“Almost, there are still some who are trying to question my ability.” Hans said with a malicious grin. “My people are making sure they understand who I am today.”Stephen nodded, impressed by Hans’ efficiency with dealing with the matter of the Ong family.“So we can schedule a press release today, the news agencies will publish it tomorrow and everything will be settled.” Amalia said as she thought of the timeline in her head.“No, we won’t just releas

Miguel Villanueva's Departure
Miguel and Manuel might come from a weaker family than the Cho’s but they had begun as Stephen’s friends, so Stephen decided to accompany Miguel to the airport the next day.He had offered for Miguel to use his private jet and the younger Villanueva brother happily accepted the offer.Stephen and Manuel stood on the tarmac with Miguel as they said their final goodbyes.“I’m guessing I won’t see you for a while, boss.” Miguel teased him.Technically now it was true that Stephen was their boss. With the trade to protect their family name, they were more like his henchmen doing his bidding rather than his partners through a treaty.“Most likely.” Stephen said with a nod.His wife was pregnant and he had no intentions of leaving her alone for too long. “I just wanted to say, thank you.” Miguel told Stephen. “You helped us back then and you helped us again now. Jacob would have ruined our family if news got out about his cases.”Stephen nodded, then he realized something, he forgot to as

The Villanueva Name
Stephen had been exhausted by the night before.Paolo had woken up in the middle of the night and cried out for both Hans and Stephen. Stephen had been sleeping with the little boy at the time, but he refused to calm down unless his Daddy Hans was there.It seemed Paolo had settled on what to call them.Hans was Daddy, and Stephen was Papa. In the same way, he called Vanessa his Mama. When Stephen had asked a maid to call for Hans, his cousin seemed like he was about to burst into tears because his son had called for him.“Boss?” Andrew called, waving his hand in front of Stephen. “Sorry, Paolo had a hard time sleeping after yesterday’s incident. What were you saying Andrew?”Stephen asked as he tried to focus on the discussion at hand.“The bidding for the latest piece of land that that government has put up for sale starts in a week. The procurement director wanted to ask if you wished to purchase it.” Andrew informed Stpehen as he handed him the details of the piece of property.
