Rise Of The General's Forgotten Son Chapter 10
As Elijah stepped into the elevator, he felt a rush of excitement. It had been ages since he'd even ridden in an elevator, let alone one this sleek and polished, lined with mirrors and soft lighting. The feeling of luxury surrounded him as he pressed the button for the top floor. The doors closed with a quiet hum, and he couldn't help the smile that spread across his face.This was his first real taste of what having money and freedom felt like. No more being looked down on or treated like he didn’t belong. For the first time, he had control over his life, and tonight was just the beginning.Soon, the elevator glided to a smooth stop at the top floor, and with a soft ding, the doors slid open. Elijah stepped out into a quiet, dimly lit hallway lined with luxurious carpeting and framed artwork. Taking a deep breath, he walked down the hall, his footsteps muffled by the thick carpet. Finally, he reached his suite door. With a quick swipe of the key card, the door unlocked with a satis

As the app loaded, he spotted a live video that immediately caught his eye. He clicked on it, and in an instant, the face and voice of Sierra Lane filled his screen. Her voice, rich and velvety, seemed to pour out of the phone, captivating him entirely.Sierra Lane, the TikTok sensation with a voice like no other. In her early twenties, she’d already gathered millions of followers who couldn’t get enough of her soulful performances. Sierra herself was striking, with long, wavy hair cascading down her shoulders, framing her expressive face. Her eyes sparkled with enthusiasm as she sang, and she wore a comfortable yet stylish outfit, perfect for her laid-back yet engaging vibe. Her talent wasn’t just in the smoothness of her voice but the warmth she brought with each note, making every live session feel like an intimate, personal concert. The walls were adorned with a few colorful posters of her favorite artists, and various musical instruments were scattered around—a guitar leaned c

As Sierra finished her song, she glanced down at the comments, hoping to see another message from FlibbityBoo. Her smile faltered just slightly when she noticed that he was no longer watching the live. A small pang of disappointment hit her—she had hoped he would stay long enough for her to thank him properly or maybe chat a bit more. Still, she couldn’t help but beam with joy over the incredible support he had shown.Turning back to the screen, she spoke to her audience, her voice full of excitement. “Wow, I honestly can’t believe tonight! FlibbityBoo, if you’re still watching somehow, thank you again. You really made my night—no, you made my whole week!”….Elijah checked the time on his phone—it had already been 25 minutes, and he was starting to feel his stomach rumble. He was just about to lay down on the bed to wait a little longer when the doorbell suddenly rang."They’re here already?" he murmured, pleasantly surprised. He quickly walked over to the door, expecting to see a t

The woman looked down and gently placed a hand on her daughter’s head. “Oh, I’m sorry, sir. She’s my daughter. She wanted to come along, but if this is a disturbance, I can send her back…” “No, no,” Elijah quickly shook his head with a reassuring smile. Then, he crouched a bit to speak to the little girl directly. “Hey there, little one. It’s almost one in the morning—shouldn’t you be asleep by now? Don’t you have school tomorrow?” The young girl looked up at her mother for a moment, then back at Elijah, her tiny voice both sweet and determined as she replied, “I already had enough sleep.” Her voice was adorable, and it made Elijah chuckle. He nodded approvingly, amused by her steady answer. “Alright, then. You’re a tough one.” With a welcoming gesture, he invited everyone in. They made their way to the terrace. When they reached the terrace, the woman looked up at Elijah with a friendly smile. “What’s your name, sir?” Elijah returned her smile warmly. “I’m Elijah Westbr

Lily nodded enthusiastically, clasping her little hands together. “Thank you, Uncle Elijah!” she said, her voice filled with pure joy.Elijah then pulled out his phone and transferred the entire amount needed for Lily’s school fees, plus an extra sum for them to buy her a special gift. He turned to Lily with a smile. “Guess what? I sent your mom some money to get you a teddy bear.”Overjoyed, Lily wrapped her tiny arms around Elijah in a hug, her happiness almost contagious. The woman thanked Elijah profusely, her eyes wet with gratitude, and together, she and Lily slowly made their way out, glancing back at him one last time with looks of deep appreciation.As Elijah opened each dish, he was greeted by an impressive display that looked almost too beautiful to eat. The seafood platter gleamed with vibrant colors—lobster tails, juicy shrimp, and delicate scallops, all arranged over a bed of ice and garnished with slices of lemon and sprigs of fresh herbs. Beside it was a plate of per

Sierra shrugged lightly. “I don’t know, Dad. It’s just an anonymous account—no profile picture, no bio, just some random username. But whoever they are, they were generous tonight.”Her father’s frown deepened as he listened, concern etched into his expression. “Sierra, you need to be cautious. You have no idea who’s on the other side of that screen, or why they’re doing this. People don’t just hand out money for no reason. It’s not normal.”Her mother chimed in gently, “Your father’s just looking out for you, honey. It’s wonderful you had someone supportive tonight, but…just keep your guard up.”Sierra nodded, though a hint of frustration lingered. She understood her father’s concerns, but tonight had felt special. “I’ll be careful, Dad, I promise.”Elijah finished his food then his drink, savoring the last sip with a contented smile. Tonight felt like a new start, and he was truly happy for himself. Setting down the empty glass, he stretched, feeling the satisfaction of the incredib

Soon, Elijah’s breakfast was delivered—a delicious spread just as elaborate as his dinner the night before. He savored each bite, taking his time as he soaked in this rare taste of luxury. Once he was done, he tidied up, making sure his outfit was just right, then left his room looking well-dressed and confident.As Elijah approached the reception desk, the receptionist’s eyes widened slightly, taken aback by his transformation. Gone was the man in casual, rumpled clothes; now he stood before her, well-dressed, exuding confidence with a polished look that highlighted his striking features.“Good morning, sir,” she greeted with newfound respect, almost surprised by her own tone. "Did you enjoy your stay in the penthousesuite? And—oh, I see the clothes suited you perfectly.”Elijah nodded, a slight smile on his face. “Yes, thank you. It was a great experience.”The receptionist beamed, clearly relieved that he was satisfied.Elijah glanced at the receptionist, nodding appreciatively. "T

The driver noticed him and pulled over to the curb. Elijah stepped forward to talk to the driver when he caught sight of someone sitting in the back seat—a passenger. His eyes widened slightly, taking in her striking appearance. She was a stunning, thick woman with a confident air, her figure gracefully filling out the curves of her fitted dress.Elijah froze for a moment, his gaze locked on the woman in the back seat. It took him a second to fully register who he was seeing—Sierra Lane, the TikToker he'd watched on live the night before, the very one he’d sent money to on a whim. Seeing her in person now, looking even more stunning than on screen, left him momentarily speechless.He couldn't believe the coincidence. Out of all the cabs he could’ve flagged down, it had to be this one. Part of him wondered if he should say something, if she’d recognize him, but he quickly realized she’d have no idea who he was.Elijah leaned forward slightly, telling the driver his destination and list

Damian swallowed hard, his entire body tense."You think you can just hand positions to whoever you want?" she added, glaring at Sophia, who looked ready to collapse from embarrassment.Sophia’s legs felt weak. She knew everyone’s eyes were on her, judging her, but she couldn’t even lift her head.The director turned back to Damian. "You really thought you were untouchable, didn’t you?" she sneered.Damian opened his mouth to defend himself, but no words came out. He knew there was nothing he could say. The proof was right there, playing in front of everyone.The weight of his downfall was crushing him.The director’s piercing gaze swept across the office before she spoke again."Who’s Laura?" she asked, her voice sharp and demanding.The room fell into a tense silence.Laura, who had been watching everything unfold with bated breath, felt her heart skip a beat. Slowly, she stood up, trying to keep her expression neutral despite the way her hands trembled slightly."I’m Laura, ma’am,"

The director exhaled sharply and clicked on the email Damian had sent. As she scrolled through the report, her eyes darkened at the outrageous figures he had listed."One hundred and fifty thousand dollars?" she muttered under her breath. "This man has no shame."Her fingers tightened around the mouse, but she remained composed, her anger simmering beneath a cold, calculating exterior. He really thought he could keep getting away with this?Meanwhile…Laura sat at her desk, her fingers fidgeting slightly as she stared at her screen. It had been several minutes since she sent the email, but there was no reaction yet."Did she see it?" Laura wondered. "What if she ignores it? Or worse… what if Damian somehow finds out I sent it?"She forced herself to focus on her work, but her heart kept pounding. She had taken a big risk. Now, all she could do was wait.About twenty minutes later, the director’s phone buzzed. She picked it up and placed it against her ear."We're at your place, outsid

Damian nodded and said, "Alright, I'll be there."Sophia gave him a satisfied look before turning and walking out of the office, shutting the door behind her.Meanwhile, Laura made her way back to her seat, her heart still racing. The moment she sat down, she let out a quiet breath of relief—she had almost been caught. That was too close.She quickly retrieved the memory card from the hidden camera, slipping it safely into her pocket before placing the now-empty camera to her side. She needed to pass this onto the boss as soon as possible.Just then, a presence at the entrance caught her attention. The office suddenly shifted as the director walked in, looking elegant and commanding as always.Immediately, the entire office stood up in unison, their voices respectful as they greeted her."Good morning, ma'am.""Good morning, ma'am."The director gave a brief nod, her sharp eyes scanning the room as she walked deeper inside.As everyone settled back into their work after greeting the d

At the same time, Laura sat at her desk, pretending to be focused on her work, but her mind was elsewhere. She was just waiting for the best opportunity to slip into Damian’s office and retrieve the hidden camera.She stole quick glances at the office door, hoping for a moment when Damian would step out or be too distracted to notice her. The last thing she wanted was to raise any suspicion.Every second that passed felt longer, but she knew she had to be patient. The camera had already recorded crucial evidence—now, all she needed was a perfect chance to retrieve it without getting caught.As soon as Damian stepped out of his office and headed toward the washroom, Laura knew this was her chance. She quickly grabbed a few files, pretending to have an errand, and made her way toward his office.Just as she reached the door, however, Sophia suddenly stepped in front of her, arms crossed, looking at her suspiciously."And where do you think you're going?" Sophia asked, tilting her head s

Damian chuckled, getting up from his chair again and walking toward her. “What could possibly go wrong?” He tilted his head, his eyes gleaming with amusement.Laura glanced away, as if unsure. “I don’t know… things like this can get messy. And if the boss finds out—”“Tch.” Damian scoffed. “She won’t. I have everything under control.” He took another step closer, lowering his voice. “Laura, all you have to do is listen to me, and I promise things will get better for you here. You don’t have to struggle like the others.”She forced a small, hesitant nod. “I… I’ll think about it.”Damian grinned, clearly pleased. “That’s all I ask. Take your time.”Laura nodded again before finally turning and walking out of his office, her heart steady but her mind racing. She had planted the seed—now it was only a matter of time before Damian dug his own grave.As Laura turned to leave, Damian suddenly reached out and slapped her ass, his fingers lingering as he tried to pull her closer."Sir!"

As he walked in, several employees greeted him respectfully."Good morning, Mr. Damian.""Morning, sir."He gave a brief nod in response but didn’t slow his stride. His presence alone commanded attention, and even those who weren’t directly greeting him subtly straightened their posture.Inside, the office was fully active, with employees focused on their work. Unaware of what had been planted in his office earlier, Damian pushed open the door to his workspace and stepped inside, ready to begin his day.Soon, Sophia arrived at the company, dressed beautifully, her makeup flawless and her outfit perfectly tailored to highlight her elegance. As she walked in, heads turned, and murmurs spread among the employees."Sophia, you went to the Dominion event, right?" one of them asked, hoping for some inside details."Yeah, tell us about it. We saw clips on TV!" another chimed in.But Sophia ignored them, walking past without acknowledging their curiosity. Instead, she made her way toward Dam

Soon, both of them stepped out of their rooms, ready for the day.Elijah emerged first, dressed in a fitted black t-shirt and a pair of trousers that complemented his frame perfectly. His short dark hair was neatly styled, and the scent of his cologne filled the air—a rich, masculine fragrance that made his presence even more commanding. His wristwatch glinted as he casually adjusted it, looking effortlessly good without even trying.A moment later, Sierra stepped out, dressed in a chic yet comfortable outfit. She wore a soft beige blouse that draped elegantly over her figure, paired with high-waisted jeans that accentuated her curves. Her hair was neatly styled, falling effortlessly over her shoulders, and her minimal makeup highlighted her natural beauty. She had a subtle floral scent that mixed pleasantly with Elijah’s cologne, creating a soft yet captivating blend in the air.Elijah turned to look at her, his gaze sweeping over her from head to toe. "You look nice," he remarked ca

"Oh, I felt it would be good for you to be with Elijah throughout the week, at least to help you relax and all," Betty said with a sly smile. "I’ll take care of the house nicely for you."Elijah, who was still eating, didn’t even lift his head. He acted as if he hadn’t heard a thing.Sierra turned to Betty with wide eyes. "You… ah, stay for a week as how?"Betty shrugged casually. "Just like that. You clearly need a break. I mean, look at you—after everything that happened, you deserve to rest, and Elijah is rich and capable, so why not?”Sierra scoffed. "Betty, please, what kind of idea is that? I didn’t say I was moving in. I just needed some clothes for today!"Betty rolled her eyes. "Oh please, Sierra. You’re always acting like you don’t like what’s good. What’s even wrong with staying here for a few more days?"Elijah finally exhaled, set his fork down, and looked up. "Please, can I have a little bit of peace?”Elijah looked at both of them, shaking his head slightly before turni

Elijah nodded, running a hand through his hair as he exhaled. “You’re right… forgive me.”He reached out, gently taking her hands in his. His touch was warm, steady—different from the intensity from moments ago. “I’m sorry,” he said, his voice softer now. “It won’t happen again, alright?”Sierra looked at him, feeling a strange mix of emotions. There was guilt in his eyes, and somehow, that made her feel guilty too. She swallowed, nodding. “Alright.”She pulled her hands back, standing up. “The food is ready. Let’s go eat.”Elijah gave a small nod, watching her for a second before finally getting up to follow her.They walked to the dining hall in silence, the tension from earlier still lingering in the air.Sierra pulled out a chair. “Sit,” she said, her voice neutral.Elijah sat down, watching her as she moved around the dining table. She soon returned with the plates of food, carefully placing them in front of him. The rich aroma of the stew filled the space, making it clear she ha
