Revenge of the Secret Heir 30 - Collateral Damage
Simon never left his sight at the man who was slumped on the floor. Blood had started to pool in the floor while the man was trying to get away. He was trying to crawl away from where Simon stood while his hands were cradling his abdomen. Simon guessed he hit the man in the abdominal area. Securing that his gun was pointing at the man, Simon approached him with calculated steps. He saw his gun on the floor and immediately went to get it for safety. “Who sent you?” Simon asked, his voice was stern. He had to remind himself that there was another man in the house and it was heavily armed with weapons. He had to make sure it would be taken care of. The wounded man let out an annoying chuckle. He has his face covered with masks and he wore a baseball cap to conceal his identity. “You shouldn’t have stuck your nose into that old case. Your mother is dead, whether you give justice to her death, it will be useless. She’s not coming back to life.”Simon felt like all the blood in his bod
Revenge of the Secret Heir 31
Simon slammed his fist on the steering wheel of his car. He pressed on the gas hard and let his car fly on the streets. Right now, he didn’t care about speed limits or cops chasing him for traffic violations. He was furious because he couldn’t do anything for Mr. Graham. He wanted to stay, but the moment the police recognized him, his family name would be involved, he just couldn’t risk that. “Fuck! I will make them pay!” He was seething in anger. Leaving Graham there while he was fighting for his life was a total act of cowardice. He parked his car in front of the hotel. He threw his keys to the valet as soon as he hopped out of the car and darted towards the entrance. Confusion was written all over the valet’s face when he saw who went out of the car. He didn’t expect such a shabby man to be driving a car. The valet just shook his head and went on for his work. Simon, on the other hand, stormed inside the hotel and went to the eleva tor with a scowl in his face. No one dared to
Revenge of the Secret Heir 32 - Humiliation
After talking to Giovanni and making sure that Cristobal had erased all the CCTV footage, Simon decided to go to the hotel’s restaurant. Part of him wanted to see how the business is going on right now. He’s going to take over months from now and he wanted to check if the management was doing its job properly. He took a quick shower and changed his clothes. There was blood on the clothes that he’s wearing but it’s not that visible. Choosing semi-faded jeans and a loose black shirt, Simon was ready to go to the restaurant. He took his navy blue colored baseball cap to conceal his face and he went out of his room. As Simon walked through the hallways of the hotel, he encountered several people who looked at him like he was out of place. And it’s true, with the clothes that he wore in this five-star hotel, he really looked out of place. But Simon didn’t mind those disgusting stares. Hell, he really doesn't care what they think, that’s the least of his worries right now. The lobby of
Revenge of the Secret Heir 33 - The Consequence
Simon massage his wrist, which was slightly hurt when the guards forcefully dragged him to the entrance. They thought that he’d a beggar, they even accused him of being a scam and trying to have free meals in the restaurant. Simon was beyond disappointed with his employees’ behavior. He couldn’t imagine that the company hired such rude people. Now that this issue has surfaced, he will not let this slide. He will make sure to leave imprints on the other employees that, above anything else, he wanted kindness and consideration to be a priority. “Mr. Morelli, we sincerely apologized for what happened. What we did was protect the establishment. We have had this situation before, wherein a beggar tried to order food that he couldn’t afford. We handled the situation professionally, and no harm was done. But, I really want to apologize for being rude and inconsiderate. I will take responsibility for that.” Rey’s head hung low in humiliation as he tried to apologize to Simon. “Where is th
Revenge of the Secret Heir 34
Simon woke up feeling a little groggy. He had more alcohol last night than he intended to drink. He’s not entirely drunk, but enough to make his mind foggy. He can get lazy now. He had a lot of things that needed his attention, and that includes the flash drive that John Graham had given him. Plus, he needs to know where he can use that key. After taking a shower and ordering breakfast, Simon took his laptop and inserted the flash drive. Good thing it has no password or some sort. He was granted access to the files in the drive the moment he opened it.As he scanned the contents of the drive, his eyebrows were getting tied together in confusion.“What the fuck is this? There’s nothing in here,” he murmured, still focused on his laptop. The files are all about how to fix a vintage car and everything about cars and how to fix them. His attention was disturbed when the door rings. “Finally,” he said. He was waiting for his breakfast. His stomach was grumbling and he needed to fill
Revenge of the Secret Heir 35 - The Big Boss is Down
Simon answered the phone when he saw that Giovanni was the one who was calling. He was ready to go to Seattle when he suddenly called. Halting from his attempts to leave the room, he answered his phone. “Giovanni.” Simon answered. “Salvatorre, when are you coming back here in New York?” There was an edge of urgency in his voice. Simon frowned, confused. Though he couldn’t see his trusted friend, he knew that something was wrong based on his voice. “I was on my way to Seattle. I was about to call the chopper when you called. Why? Is there something wrong?” He heard Giovanni let out a sigh. “Why are you going to Seattle, man? You’ve been away for weeks now, and they were looking for you, man. Marcus and I don’t know how to answer, especially Federico.” “I was here in North Carolina, you knew. But thanks for not telling anyone about where I am. I was following a lead about my mother’s case.”“That man died, right? I saw it on the news, and I realized it was the same street you wa
Revenge of the Secret Heir Poisoned

Revenge of the Secret Heir There's a Traitor in the Kitchen Staff
Butler John assisted in dragging all the staff and crew of the mansion, and that includes all the staff that were assigned in the kitchen, especially them. “How about the guards? Are we not going to check them?” Marcus asked Simon while they were standing in the balcony of his father’s office. Simon had checked all his medicine but there was nothing out of place there. Except if the contents are being replaced. “We will, but I have a feeling that it came from the kitchen safe. How did my father come to ingest such poisonous matter? It should be from the staff that prepares the food.” Simon answered, his eyes were glued on the staff that looked baffled as to why they were being dragged out to the garden by the guards. Marcus couldn’t agree more. “Get those bottles and have it checked by Dylan.” Dylan was the one who was in-charged in the production of liquor, and he specializes in substance and chemical. He would know if the contents of those bottles were replaced or not. “Yes,

A Happy Ever After for a Mafia Boss
ONE YEAR LATERIt’s been a year since Simon proposed to her at the airport. It was a proposal that no one expected. Simon organized it himself with the help of his friend, Black Scar, one of Hong Kong’s notorious criminals. They got married the next day as Simon didn’t want to waste time. It was a very intimate wedding and only a few guests were invited to that sacred event. Simon even organized it without them noticing his activities. He was so good at hiding things. It was quite weird for Addison because Simon was really never vocal about how he feels about her. And suddenly he proposed! They are not even couples, or he didn’t even confess his love for her even once. Eve so, Addison said yes to his marriage proposal. Why would she decline him? She loves him as much as he loves her. And he had proven himself to her already so many times that Addison knew that what they had was something real and needs to be cherished. Addison couldn’t help but smile while she was checking her mak

186 - Unexpected Proposal
The ride going to the airport was long and heart-stopping. The driver did his very best to dodge the cars that were tailing them, but it was a futile attempt. The chase was rough, though those cars did nothing but chase them, it was still rough. “Damn those bastards. What do they want? They just chased us like it was fun for them.” Ryzen shook his head as he looked at the rearview mirror. The driver of the cab did a good job of keeping them at a distance. “Don’t mind them. We will arrive at the airport in less than five minutes now. Be ready. We need to run fast as soon as this cab stops at the entrance of the airport.” Simon instructed them what to do the moment they arrived. “What? Run? But what if these men have guns? I am sure they were the ones who visited us. Damn, these Chinese gangsters!” Silence took over as they sped their way in the street. The night was ripe, it was already ten in the evening, and the streets were packed with people. Addison keeps on looking at the

185 - A Rough Chase
Fear began to envelop Addison’s chest. These armed men were looking for her and there was no way that she was going to go with them. Addison shook her head. “No. There’s no way I am going with those guys, Simon.” She took a step back, it was an act of self-preservation. Federico took a step forward in front of Addison. His hands were ready to draw guns that were hidden behind his jeans. He’s always prepared when a time like this arises. “I already talked to Black Scar, and I will talk to him again. You can’t just drag my girlfriend out of here.” Simon calmly suggests. His calm demeanor was much more scary than those men with high-powered guns. He smiled politely at those people. “I suggest that you go back now. I will call him to negotiate. Please, I don’t want any ruckus in here.” He said again, this time he was smiling. Addison swallowed an invisible lump from her throat. This was her fault. If she wasn’t so stubborn enough, this wouldn’t have happened. Now some Asian gangst

184.2 - A call from the Chines Triad
All eyes were set to Simon and they waited for his reaction as the phone call ended. His face was so serious that Federico was so sure it was not good news. “What did he say?” Addison was the first one to break the silence. “It’s the Black Scar, right? What does he want from you?” Addison shifted from her seat. For some reason she couldn’t understand, she had a feeling that this was not going to be a good night for all of them. He guts told her so, and it was never wrong before. “Well?” Federico raised an eyebrow at Simon. Simon looked at them one by one before he released a heavy sigh and massaged his temple. That action alone indicated that something was wrong. “Am I in trouble, Simon?” Addie’s chest pounded hard. Are those men coming after them now? Before Simon could even answer them they heard a loud banging on the doer. Not a simple knock, but an urgent banging that’s demanding. “Who the hell is that?” Ryzen got to his feet and went to open the door. “Wait! Don’t open

184.1 - The Chinese Triads
“What the fuck?” Simon’s voice roared inside the house. After the incident, Addie and Ryzen quickly went home, leaving the scene behind them. Addison was still shaking from what happened. Well, it’s the worst thing that she experienced because she kidnaped a couple of times and she’s not new to this. But this happening in a foreign country makes it more dreadful. Simon was quick to rush Addison and check on her. “Are you hurt? Did those guys?” Simon gripped Addison’s shoulder and examined if she endured any injuries from the incident. Addison just rolled her eyes and shrugged off Simon’s hand. “You know I’m fine because you had someone following us.” She sat on the sofa, crossed her arms in front and raised an eyebrow at Simon. Both Ryzen and Federico turned their heads to Simon who nonchalantly puffed smoke from his mouth. “Damn!” Simon gave in. “Okay, I had them tailed you. What am I supposed to do? Leave you alone to roam the streets of Hong Kong without any protection? Tha

183 - Chaos in Hong Kong
Hong Kong is such a busy city. Addison couldn’t be happier to see people bustle in the middle of the huge city. The crowd makes her excited. The beautiful faces of Asian people. “I can’t wait to try their food!” Addison gushed. She pulled Ryzen going to a street vendor who sells different kinds of street foods. After going from one store to another, Addison was famished. “Ryzen! What are you looking at?” She pulled his attention back to his. She glanced in the direction that Ryzen was looking but she saw nothing there. “What? Did you see a beautiful Chinese girl?” Addison teased him. But Ryzen didn’t bite in her joke. He looked serious and worried at the same time. “Come on, let’s eat! I think their food is so delicious.” While Addison was busy talking to the old woman who was selling the street food, Ryzen squinted his eyes. He was sure that someone was spying on them, his gut feelings wouldn’t lie to him, and they never failed him before. Addie handed him a mouth-watering fo

182.2 - Grandiose Vacation ( Hong Kong)
“Are you sure that you two are going to be alright?” Federico asked Ryzen again. They were gathered in the living room of the house that they rented. It’s a two-story bungalow house. Simon preferred to rent a home than stay in a hotel. Ryzen shrugged his shoulder, ignoring Federico’s worries. Simon tapped Federico’s shoulder, he was standing behind him. “Don’t worry about it, they are going to be fine. Right, Ryzen?” Simon and Federico both turned their heads to look at Ryzen. “Of course!” Ryzen yelled out in panic and followed it with a laugh. “You can trust me on this.” He assured them, confidence was laced in his voice. Federico wasn't sure about this one. He was damn worried, but he knew he can’t do anything about it if that’s what Addison wanted. Addison wanted to explore Hong Kong and she requested that she would go by herself. Federico and Simon said no, and told her that it would be too dangerous for her to go alone, especially in a place that she’s not familiar with.

182.1 - Grandiose Vacation After the Chaos
Addison was overwhelmed that Simon had taken them on a grandiose vacation. Yes, she had been to other countries before but it was all for her work. This will be the first time that she’s going on a vacation, and she has to thank Simon for it. Simon has always been good to her. He may not be that vocal with his feelings but Addie could feel his genuine concern and love for them. She swallowed the invisible lump in her throat. Now that everything is going well for all of them, she just hoped that Simon would not go back to where he started, the Mafia clans. She knew very well that he was an heir to a billion-dollar empire and he had to take his place in the underworld, but Addie didn’t want him to be part of that again. It was too dangerous. “Hey, are you all right?” Addison’s attention was diverted to the man who was beside her. They were on a plane going to Egypt and it will be a long ride. “I was just thinking about Simon.” She admitted. There’s no use denying something that bo

All things are good now
It’s been weeks but the trauma was still fresh from Addison’s mind. The fear was still present inside her heart and she couldn’t help but overthink things. She was drinking her coffee one early morning in the gazebo inside Simon’s estate. She still can’t get over the fact that they were able to make it out of Mancini’s mansion. Thinking about her heart suddenly felt heavy. That huge man who helped her never made it out. He was one of Mancini’s most trusted personnel but he was so kind that he helped her. If only Addison could turn back the clock, he wouldn’t have left him in that state there. Regret and guilt consumed her. “Hey…” Federico came with a cup of hot coffee in his hand. “You wouldn’t mind if I joined you, right?” He looked fresh with his hair combed to the side and had a bright smile plastered on his face. Addison smiled at him. “No, not at all. Come.” She gestured to the empty seat in front of her. Simon was still recovering from his stab wound and Addison had the
