Rise Of The Billionaire Son CEO Of West Conglomerate
The next day… Chris was dressed, in a fitted suit provided by Alexander McQueen, his bandage had been taken off and he had his luggage ready for departure. Ria was also by his side, happy and bubbly and she didn't feel like she would be missing out on anything if she left the country. After all, she was in for the adventure. Chris and Ria were both standing in the living area of the Westminster mansion while he waited for the butler to give him a report on the case going on with the police. But Ria had different thoughts. “Hey, aren't you going to apologize for what you did yesterday?” Ria asked, frowning. “Uhm… what?” Chris was momentarily confused and didn't know what she was saying. “You spoke to me like an asshole. Remember, you should be grateful to me for saving you!” She pointed at herself, looking very proud. “Well…” Chris sighed, knowing she was right. Added to that, after the way Mia treated him yesterday at the hospital, he had finally seen the light like Ria said h
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Stunt
Butler Rico led Chris and Ria straight to the CEO’s office as he explained everything that entailed Chris’ new position. “How do I navigate this?” Chris frowned, his eyes going dark as he sat behind his huge desk. “Don’t worry, you will have a consultant to teach you everything you need to know. It will be like you are still in college...” The butler assured him as he rambled on and on. Chris understood perfectly but then the burden of heading such a large company, with no clue was daunting. “You will have a meeting with the directors soon. We need to introduce you as the new CEO.” Butler Rico said, his eyes shining excitedly. “Are you ready?” He asked Chris. “Yes.” Chris nodded, standing up to his feet. He realized there was no moment of rest for him. He had to start working hard so he could return as the powerful man his father wanted him to be. “Ria, follow me.” The butler called Ria out so they could go prepare the meeting room. And Chris was asked to come in later. Soon,

“Shawn…” Genie continued to cry, and now, tears were running down her eyes like a waterfall. On the other hand, Chris folded his hands behind his back and continued to look at Genie with an amused look. “Genie, calm down…” Shawn held her body to himself. “I do not understand what you are saying.”“What can you not understand?” Genie snapped, her eyes blazing with fury and pain. “He hit me! I discovered that he is an impostor and he hit me. What more do you want to know?” At this, Shawn turned to look at Chris, evaluating him crucially. “He is a young man, what harm can he do to you?” Shawn’s words caused Chris to raise his brows in surprise and curiosity. Was Shawn trying to be reasonable or was he just being insulting?“Are you trying to call me a liar?” Genie screamed as if she would raze down the whole place. “This man here is a fraudster! Get him out!” “But–”“No buts.” Genie looked mad. “If you don’t do as I say, forget about the promotion.” Immediately Genie said that Sha
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Testing Limits
The whole office turned silent as Genie’s eyes widened in shock. She covered her mouth while shaking her head in disbelief. And then she went ahead to argue with Rico. “Mr. Rico…” She whispered at first, “I think you are mistaken. That boy doesn't even look like a director, not to talk of a CEO.”“Are you making this up?” Rico looked at her with a look of disdain, but then he shook his head. He didn't have the time or patience to explain himself to her so, he walked forward, pushing Shawn out of the way to get to Chirs. “Are you out of your mind? I said let him go.” He barked. The men immediately let Chris go and he stood there, dusting his hand with a calm expression. “I'm sorry, Young Master. They must have been mistaken. This won’t repeat itself again.” Rico immediately bowed, and dread was starting to fill his body seeing the way Chris was so calm. Immediately, Rico turned to Genie, “Get over here and apologize!”Genie was flustered, her eyes turned pale and red simultaneous
Rise Of The Billionaire Son Tension
A loud series of gasps echoed in the meeting room as Dan looked at Chris in shock. Every other director present was also in shock because that task was unimaginable! “Mr. CEO, I am afraid... That is too much.” Dan roamed his eyes around the meeting room to see no one was standing up for him and he started to shake. How could he bring in 20% of the annual income alone? He wasn't even part of the Sales Department! There was no way he could do that and seeing this, the directors knew not to joke with Chris!“I'm afraid you are not competent, then. If you can open your mouth to insult others, then you should really have a lot working for you upstairs.” Chris pointed at his temple with a smirk. He may be young but then, he was vengeful. “But…” Dan was already sweating and his face had gone pale. “So, will you do it or not?” Chris wasn't fazed. “Remember, if you refuse, you will have to step down from your position. And if you do not meet my conditions for the task, you will be fired!”
Rise Of The Billionaire Son We Are The Mafia
Chris and Ria now stood behind Rico who had a calm look on his face. However, he didn't seem fazed or fearful of Genie’s expression. “And what about them?” He raised his brows.“They–”Butler Rico interrupted her quickly, “Miss Genie, I suggest you leave. Otherwise, you will not only be tied down, you will be taken to the worst place you could ever imagine. And trust me, the Reds wouldn't even be able to save you.”His eyes were no longer calm, they held a certain look of dread and warning. “What?” She frowned, but seeing Rico’s look, she knew not to keep talking. She turned around, storming past the men while she yelled, “This is not over yet!”On the other end, Rico frowned and turned to the men, “You both should take Miss Ria back to the mansion, the Young Master and I have to be somewhere.” “What?” Ria gasped as the men suddenly came to stand by her side, wanting to lead her to another car. “Why are you sending me away, Butler Rico? What is going on?” She started to question h
Rise Of The Billionaire Son The Ricos
The drive to the unknown location continued as Chris sat back down, thinking deeply about his next course of action. He had nig even used a full day in country X and he was already being bombarded with responsibilities. He could already feel a splitting headache, one that would reoccur, every day. “Young Master, we have arrived.” He heard Rico’s voice and he looked out of the car’s window to see that they were driving on a dusty road with bushes surrounding everywhere. “This is the main hideout of the organization. The business we operate are scattered around the country but this is the powerhouse of it all.” As Rico spoke, he drove in front of a tall four-story building that had bright lights all over. However, he didn't stop at the entrance of the building, he drove to the back where three men were standing. They looked young but the seasoned and brutal expression they had on, showed that they weren't novices at all. “Welcome.” They bowed as soon as Chris and Rico stepped out.
Rise Of The Billionaire Son The Club
Chris stared at his phone for a few seconds, blinking his eyes rapidly to understand what went on just now. But nothing came to his head. Why did Mia hate so much all of a sudden?Immediately, he tried to call her again but then the call didn't go through at all. At the same time, he thought of calling butler Steve to check on her but then Steve’s phone wasn't going through. Just like his father’s wasn't going through. They had all blocked all sorts of communication and he felt miserable. His heart was pounding in fear for Mia. He sat on his bed, trying to know what next to do when there was a knock on the door. Chris looked up to see that it was Rico and he stood up, seeing the deep frown on Rico’s face. “What’s wrong?” Chris asked. “Ria. Is she here?” Rico asked, looking all around the room. “No.” Chris shook his head. “Didn't she come home before us?”“Yes, she did. But I instructed the maids to go check on her and give her food and whatever she might need but she is nowhere i

Finally Free
Mia looked at her parents in disbelief and embarrassment and when they said nothing to her question, she felt like her head was being blown off. “You told me the Westminster family kidnapped me! You said they wanted to sell me off. You never told me it was because of what you did. You kidnapped Chris too!” Mia’s voice was raised a notch higher and a sinking feeling of betrayal overwhelmed her. On the other hand, Chris was still frowning because he couldn't recall ever being kidnapped by Mia’s father or anyone at that. In fact, his childhood memories were blurry and he could remember the poverty he went through with his father. Mia’s father suddenly spoke up, “Put yourself in my shoes, Mia! My company was ruined! If he had at least helped me at the time, we would have been on par with the West Conglomerate.”He didn't feel any atom of remorse, all he felt was that he did good. “So, you wanted to get back at the Westminsters by kidnapping Chris and then later on, you lied to me, rid
Explanation
As Ria was being dragged straight to the back of the mansion, Chris slowly walked up to Mia and her parents. He greeted them with a bow, and then looked at Mia, “How have you been?” He reached out to her, to hold her hands but she quickly drew away from him. She seemed as if Chris was a plague that couldn't be touched and even her parents stood before her to shield her. “You should stay away from her, Chris.” Her father spoke up, which left Chris confused. “If you wanted me to stay away from her, why are you here?” Chris’ temper was rising and he didn't like the way they treated him. “We are not here for you, boy. Your father invited us here. And even if we are at war with your family, and we decided to take your family’s help, it doesn't mean you can speak to our daughter!”“Not after what you did to her!” Mia’s father thundered. “At war?” Chris frowned. “What do you mean? I did nothing to Ria!” He deflected their accusation and his eyes searched for Ria but she fell behind her
Meeting Mia
Chris reached the car waiting and Ria followed after him with a look of urgency. Before he got into the already opened black car, she stopped him. “Chris! Why are you doing this?” She asked frantically, her eyes hurt and demanding answers. “What do you mean?” He frowned. “Do you just want to go back on your words now? She asked. “You asked me to summon Reid and everything and now you just want to bolt away because of Ria?”“Do you realize you are putting me in deep waters with Reid and the rest? How do you want me to–”“Tha’s none of my business, Ria.” Chris cut her off. “What?” She gasped. “Well, I do not care if I go through with what I planned with you. Who are you to stop me?” Chris sneered. “But–”“No buts, Ria. You have absolutely no say here. Get into a car and let’s go.” He ordered and in the next second, he got into the car, causing Alexander to quickly go to him as well. There was another car waiting for Ria and the Ricos and as she stood there frozen, Alexander look
Moved By Mia
“Mia, is everything ready?” Mia heard a thick voice, coming straight from outside her door. She sat before the mirror with a weary look on her face, as if she was going to fall apart any second from that moment. However, she mustered up the courage to reply. “Yes, mother. Everything is ready.” She said, her tone croaked and heavy. In the next second, she heard receding footsteps and she knew she was alone in the house for now. As she stood up to her feet, she slightly kicked the mirror and it fell straight toward her. Mia took a step back, not fazed by the sharp sound of the shattering mirror and the glass shards that pierced her skin. She just didn't want to see herself in the mirror anymore. She was a shadow of herself after the incident on the rooftop. She lied against Chris and even with all that she did, she didn't get what she wanted. Her family which she tried to save were now packing out of their home. They lost their business since Reid and his friends didn't keep their e
Landing
Three days later…Chris was done with the project he was handling and as he successfully launched it, he handed the rest of the work over to butler Rico. At this point, he was at the rooftop of the company building and Butler Rico had a blank look on his face. But the way he was so stiff, made his emotions very obvious. “You can come visit sometime soon…” Chris patted his shoulders. Behind him was Ria, who looked around warily, hoping all this wasn't a setup. She couldn't believe that she was finally going home! But at the back of her mind, she wondered if Chris really wanted to give her freedom or subject her to even more misery. She could see now that there was no escaping from him and she had to do whatever she could to make him cast his merciful eyes on her. “Goodbye…” Chris whispered to butler Rico. He turned around to get into the plane, while the other Ricos followed after him. Ria was the last to board the plane. As soon as they took off, Chris called out to her, “Ria, do
Death Is Freedom
Ria’s lips quivered at the sound of Chris’s voice and his choice of words. Her eyes looked away from him with an embarrassed look as she bowed her head in shame. “What… what are you saying?” She whispered, trying to act clueless. For the past grueling hours she had spent in the cell, she had been hoping Chris wouldn't gain access to her phone but now, she wasn't sure if he had. The way he looked at her, showed irritation and dislike. She had worked so hard to be close to him, so he could look at her and not Mia. But she ended up ruining everything when she fell into Mateo’s trap. No matter how she wanted to be with Chris, she chose herself at that moment. And now, she regretted it. When Chris had spared her life, she thought she could have a second chance at her life and so, she contacted Reid, Ren, and Mike with a hidden phone she had for years. But everything seemed to have backfired! She felt torn. Now, she was waiting on Chris’ verdict. “You know what I am saying…” Chris sn
I Am Leaving
One day later…“Why are you so enthusiastic today? You didn’t want to see me anytime soon.” Victoria smiled as she walked into the shooting range with a playful look. “Also, you are still injured.”“I am leaving,” Chris responded, adjusting his stance due to his injury.“But that doesn’t mean you have to overwork yourself, you still have to manage a project, don’t you?” Victoria wasn’t surprised that Chris was leaving, she was only worried about him stressing. However, Chris had a question for her. “Why does my father want me back home?” He asked. This was the same way he was told to leave home, without a clue of whatever he was going to do back at home. And now, the same was happening. “I think you should ask him–”“Do you think he is going to tell me?” I cut her off, irritatedly. “No.” She shook her head. “I shouldn't be blamed for that though.”“Yes. But you know why! I need to know too. Don’t keep me in the dark.” Chris was pleading with his eyes. Somehow, he seemed to suspec
Fierce
“What?” Chris’ frown turned even deeper as Rico placed a few documents on his table. He stared at the documents for a long while before taking them up as he was scared that he would find something that would shatter his mind and heart even further.What did Butler Rico mean by saying Ria betrayed him from the start? He couldn’t wrap his head around it as Chris wondered whether it all started back at his home. Was it when he met Ria at first at the party? Or was it when she obsessively wanted to associate with him? Either way, he would only find out when he finally checked the document.And as soon as Chris laid his eyes on the contents of the documents, he looked shocked, and his mind blew up in disbelief. His eyes scanned through several chats between three different people Ria had been in contact with. None of them was Mateo, but they were Reid, Ren, and Mike.Ria was in close contact with them and it seemed she had the old phone ever since with her and one peculiar chat caught Chri
From The Start
Immediately, Chris knew he needed to speak to Ria about what the hell she was planning this time. She never learned her lessons and a part of him started to regret why he spared her life. As soon as he got down from the bed, he winced in pain due to the bullet wounds. At the same time, Rico walked in with a frown. “You need to take a rest.” He cautioned Chris however, Chris shook his head and attempted to walk past him. “I need to speak to Ria. That bitch…” Chris cursed but Rico held him back. “I knocked her out…” He said. “She wouldn't stop trashing and trying to attack me…” He explained what happened and Chris finally calmed down. He slowly walked back to the bed, taking deep breaths to calm himself. On the other hand, Butler Rico calmly waited for Chris to explain his outburst. “Ria is in contact with the bastard working with Mateo.” Chris dropped the bomb but Rico wasn't surprised, his frown only deepened. “How sure are you?” Rico asked. Quickly, Chris requested his phone
