Revenge of the Secret Heir Intruder
Before Simon went to retrieve the painting, he visited his father’s first. His father and mother were buried alongside each other. It was already dark, but Simon didn’t mind the eeri air the cemetery gives as he stood there. “Dad, mom,” he whispered. He was an only child, so there was really no one that Simon can turn into when difficult time strikes him. Just like when he got ambushed. He was alone in this world full of snakes and traitors. “I’m so sorry I couldn’t save you two.” His heart was bleeding. He’s been carrying that same guilt for months now ever since he learned from Victoria that there was a possibility that his father was murdered.Part of him believed it, but he wanted more proof. And looking at Federico living like a king from his father’s wealth, Simonn could say that what Victoria said was true. He just needed concrete evidence to support her claims. When he gets hold of that proof, he will not hesitate to kill whoever did this to his family. His father and m
Revenge of the Secret Heir Is Federico not the Traitor?
Simon’s body froze when he realized Federico was standing behind him with a gun pointed at him. Good thing he was wearing his baseball cap and the mask, at least Federico wouldn’t see his face and recognize him. All of his efforts to change his identity will be put to waste if that happens. “I won’t repeat it again. Who the fuck are you and what are you doing here?” Simon was confused whether to face the man whom he believed to have betrayed his dear father. He glanced over his shoulder to measure the proximity of their bodies. Federico was standing directly behind him. But when he noticed what Simon did, Federico stepped back but the gun was still pointed at Simon. Simon was left with no choice but to surrender. He raised both of his hands as a sign that he will not fight. But his mind was thinking of any possible ways on how to escape. It seems that Simon has no option but to fight with Federico. Come what may, but he will not try without fighting. Ever so slowly, Simon turn
Revenge of the Secret Heir New Set of Enemies
“That was fucking awesome, man!” Janus was pacing back and forth in the living room. The bag that he retrieved from Cash and the painting sat on the table in front of them. Simon was silently sitting, his mind was elsewhere. He was still thinking about what happened in the back in the mansion. “I can feel my sweat rolling from my forehead, I really thought that was the end of me. But when I stabbed his feet, it was the best feeling ever, Simon!” Janus was loud and still couldn’t get enough of the fact that he just knocked Cash down. He was still elated by his small victory. He stopped pacing when he saw that Simon was not listening to him.“Simon?” He snapped his fingers in front of Simon. “Are you all right? You’ve been spacing out.” Simon was brought back into reality when he heard Janus snap a finger at him. “I’m sorry, I was just distracted by my thoughts.” He rubbed his face and leaned back on the sofa. Janus' face was flooded with concern. “Why? Care to tell me why?” Janu
Revenge of the Secret Heir Who is that Big Boss?
Someone’s POV Cash Martinez groaned in pain when a fist with brass knuckles hit his jaw causing him to dive on the floor, face down. Someone grabbed his wet hair and yanked it up, his neck hurt by the force of the pulling. “What did I tell you? I will kill you with my bare hands if you fail to deliver the painting to me?” The man spit on his face. The anger that the man felt was so intense. He was so close to getting the painting, but it slipped his hands just because of some pathetic thief this man had hired. “I didn’t know. Please, give me a chance. I will get it myself.” The man chuckled, but there was no humor in his laugh. He pulled Cash through his hair. He cried as pain shot through his skull. The man literally dragged Cash using his own hair. “Promises, promises. Those were made to be broken, you idiot! I don’t need your promises. I need results! I want that painting as soon as possible!” He shouted. He expected that he would get hold of the painting today, but it tur
Revenge of the Secret Heir The Mystery of the Painting
Janus’ hands were shaking as he maneuvered the car. It was not just his hands that were shaking, his whole body was going to convulse in fear. What he just saw literally blew out his mind. When Simo told him to keep his eyes on Alberto Torres, he really meant to do that job. He was even eavesdropping whenever he heard the Spanish billionaire talking on the phone. He snuck inside the dilapidated building minutes after Torres went in. He knew that something wasn't right and he had to see it first hand. Imagine his shock when he saw a fully beaten Cash lying on the floor. When Torres arrived, he himself beat the life out of Cash. He witnessed how the man begged for his life, he even kneeled in front of Torres, but he just laughed at Cash’s efforts. He can’t hear what they were talking about, but Janus suspected it was about the painting. Or maybe it was about the bag of jewelry that he retrieved from Cash. When Torres ordered his death, Janus knew at that moment that he was not de
Revenge of the Secret Heir Saved
Simon stared at the door with his gun ready. There’s no way he’s going to open the damn door now. If those people outside wanted to eliminate him, then they had to come inside his apartment and they could try. “C’mon, you fucking bastards,” he whispered as he pointed the gun on the door. The loud banging was still on, and he just hoped someone would notice these men, and would call the cops. He glanced at the space in his apartment room. It’s a small space with minimal windows. He personally chose this room with the thought that the less window he has, the more he’s going to be safe. But, he realized it’s a wrong move. His room is in the second floor, and if he’s going to jump now, chances are, his going to endure a fractured legs. “Fractured is better than dead.” He shook his head and went to the nearest window. He checked if there were some outlookers, but there were none. “Shit, it’s too high,” he cursed when he realized he couldn't jump from the second floor. He’s not just
Revenge of the Secret Heir The Motive
On the way to the mansion, Simon was silent the whole time. He was in deep thought as to whether he’ll tell Federico that he was alive or not. Many questions and scenarios were running in his mind when Janus pulled to a stop. Simon was ripped out from his thoughts when he noticed that they had already arrived at the premises of the mansion. “Where to? I know we can’t go directly into that gate.” Janus pointed the gate that stood a few meters away from them. Simon let out a sigh, and in that instant he decided. “I’m go to the back.” He opened the door of the car and started to walk to the woods. He had in his hand the small bag where the painting was safely tucked inside. Janus caught up with him. “Hey, wait up, Slow down, will you.” Simon halted and faced Janus with a frown in his face. “What are you doing?” Janus looked at Simon like he just asked him the dumbest question ever asked. “What am I doing? I am going with you inside that mansion.” Janus gestured to the huge mansio
Revenge of the Secret Heir A Map Inside the Painting
Simon held his breath as he waited for Torres to speak. He’s been dreading to hear what he has to say about the painting. Simon wanted to ask why he wanted it so much that he could take a life just to have it. Of course, Simon knows he can't do that directly to Torres, so he’ll have to settle for eavesdropping on the conversation. “It’s a surprise, Alberto. I wasn’t expecting you to come today. I thought you’ll be in Spain next week.” Federico spoke in a calm and collective voice. Simon couldn’t even find tension from his voice. Federico hid it well. “Simo, are we just going to listen to their conversation?” Janus whispered beside him. He glared at his friend. He already told him to shut his mouth up. It was a good thing the door was slightly ajar, making it easy for them to hear the conversation from the inside. ‘“Well, I decided to pay you a visit before I leave for Spain.” “Why, I am flattered,” Federico replied playfully. There must be a reason why Torres suddenly visited

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
