Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 188
Brenda was at the brink of surprise, even though Derek had captured her, and she could say he was alive, she was still surprised.She couldn't tell where all those people had suddenly come from, and now was Derek carrying her in his arm. "Derek, put me down! What if people get to see us? What do you think they will say?"Well, instead of yielding, Derek said instead. "Let anyone say whatever they would say, but as long as I'm not carrying a stranger, but my wife, then I'm okay with it." Brenda couldn't withhold the expression of shock from herself. Derek did sound possessive, but then he face was speechless, it said nothing as though he never said a word.She couldn't resist him, hence she allowed him to carry her all the way home.The moment they got home, he placed her down and affirmed authoritatively."Go have a wash, take dinner and retire to bed immediately." She was about to ask him if he wouldn't be leaving for his house, but with what happened, she wished he wouldn't leave e

"Lift your head!" Derek commanded with a tone that could kill.However, both brothers shivered on the spot and refused to heed.At that point, Derek had to give a second command. "I said you both should lift your head right now!" Both faces were up immediately, at that point Allen had to hit Raphael heavily against his cheek, upon realising who stood before them."You good for nothing!" Raph said upon recognizing Derek."What have you done? What did you just say? You never do good to the family. All you do is impose nothing but trouble upon us," Allen growled. At that moment, Allen really wished he could kill his brother, who alway behaved as nothing more than a fool.Anyone with a clear mind would have associated Derek’s identity with an extraordinary figure after seeing him in the chairman’s office.Only a fool like Raphael would have a death wish and have the audacity to call him a good-for-nothing.They had already offended Derek, and they were here to apologise to him.

“No, don’t kill me! If you kill me, you’ll be breaking the law!” Raphael was beaten into a pulp by Allen, and it took him a long time to sober up slightly. He then heard Derek saying that he wouldn’t spare their lives, making him howl loudly.Derek frowned with some annoyance in his eyes while Allen immediately kicked Raphael hard and yelled. “Shut up! You disgraceful thing, get lost back to Pavenca, reflect on yourself. You’re not allowed to leave your home again!”As soon as Raphael heard this, he was relieved and hurriedly pushed the door open to scurry out.“I’m sorry, Mr. Brooke. We will teach him a good lesson, and he won’t appear in front of you or create trouble for you again in the future,” Allen hurriedly said, for fear that Derek would be angry again.Derek had never taken a small fry like Raphael seriously. He simply said right away, “It seems that you and your grandfather aren’t fools, so I’ll cut straight to chase. I can help your family expand your business into Dom

Clarine suddenly became a little uneasy. Throughout the time she did work in the Emerald Group, she had never heard any employee relate with Miss Stark this way, as she was very much known to be principled. Not even that period where the chairman of the group was announced to be around and everything seemed to be in check.At first, Clarine's heart raced. She thought Miss Stark wanted to lay her off. Then her mind wandered back home where she had always been a mummy or daddy's girl. She remembered that none of that life was what she wanted.She wanted to achieve things on her own, build her own history, make wealth herself rather than rely on that of her parents.While she walked towards Sophia's office as said, she promised herself that if Miss Stark were to ask her to leave, she would do all she could to apologise, as she was in no way ready to lose the job. However, she was still in a daze. She was just talking to Derek about Sophia , and moments later, she was asked to report to

Cameron could not know his son less. Through those fluttering eye balls, he could tell that Allen had more to say and held some details back."What else Allen? There's something else you have to tell me." Cameron said with a well organised intimidating aura."No grandpa… I have nothing to say." He fluttered in words trying to conceal according to Derek's order. However, it seemed as though he couldn't do that for long, Cameron was more intimidating than he could imagine. He leaned closer to Allen through the mahogany table across which Allen sat and then he said. "Who is the chairman?! Tell me how he looks. Tell me everything Allen, do not hold any information."It should be known that Allen couldn't conceal his expression of withholding the information, but then he sluggishly chuckled and said. "Grandpa, of course he's a mysterious man. I doubt if you really know him at all." Allen said blabbing and blushing at the same time.Just the same time, Cameron hits his fist against the ta

A mere glance at the document before him, Derek could guess what the Justin's were up to. He could guess that they were only agreeing to submit to him on the surface, but in reality, they were just out to use his influence and power to strengthen themselves.However, he decided to keep it to himself, till he was able to make something out of it that his guesses were really true.However, Derek wasn’t worried. He still had enough time to make the Emerald Group quickly expand into astonishing enterprises, more than it had acquired already.There were several companies abroad willing to partner with them. With that he would expand Emerald, but then he would shuffle out companies that are not worth partnering with Emerald.Companies that are only gaining from Emerald Group but then are only a deficit to the group, he was going to shuffle them out.Companies such as Reid group and Justin Energy were major ones he was going to shuffle out.He had thought of giving the Justin's a second chan

His first suspect was Reid, so he decided to confront them.That same day, he drove widely with the sole intent of eluding all other vehicles, in order to reach his destination as soon as possible.The whole of his body system could tell that he raged in anger. His heart, pounding in his chest as he pulled up right before the Reid mansion.He took a deep breath and stepped out of the car, his eyes scanning the property for any sign of his wife.As he approached the front door, he could hear Mrs. Reid, yelling inside at only God knows who.However that was none of his concern, he knocked on the door, and after a moment, it swung open to reveal Mrs. Reid, her face twisted in anger."What do you want?" she snapped.Derek stood firm, his hands crossed haughtily against his chest as he said. "I want my wife back," Derek affirmed, his voice cold and steady.She laughed heavily first, then she responded with a heavy tone. "Of course I took her, she should be in my kitchen cupboard, you coul

Meanwhile, Clarine was planning to head home after she finished packing up at the end of an arduous day of work. But suddenly recalling the phone call she just received from Derek, she felt uneasy.Clarine took out her phone and planned to call Brenda to know what's wrong, but her phone screen suddenly lit up at this moment. It was a call from an unknown number.She casually swiped her finger on the phone screen to answer the call. “Hello?”A stranger’s voice came from the other end. “You’re Clarine, right? Listen up. Your friend is now in our custody. If you don’t want anything to happen to her, you’d better come to the address which I would send to you to pick her up immediately. If you dare to tell anyone about this, you will collect her corpse instead!”Clarine panicked, and her heart instantly sank to rock bottom. She felt chilly all over and almost dropped her phone.By the time she returned to her senses and was about to ask another question, the caller had already hung up.Dum

W-what’s going on?The ten-odd bodyguards who barged in glared at Derek like he was a great enemy.On the ground, Perry gritted his teeth resentfully as he struggled to raise his head to look at the bodyguards and ordered, “Kill… kill him!”The punch Derek threw at his abdomen left Perry in so much pain that he was on the verge of throwing up all the food he had eaten for the past few days. The slightest movement made him feel intense pain in his stomach.For the past few decades of his life, Perry had never been beaten up like this or suffered such a huge loss before!If Derek could still leave Perry ’s turf under the siege of so many bodyguards, Perry would be thoroughly embarrassed!The ten-odd bodyguards and Perry ’s personal bodyguard acknowledged and immediately surrounded Derek.Derek smiled coldly and raised his leg to kick the bald bodyguard who rushed in front of him, sending him flying!“Ah!” The bald bodyguard let out a miserable cry as his body was propelled upward be

“No!” Perry refused resolutely. “This isn’t a small business. We’ve monopolised it in Dominican! If I recommend some clients to you, won’t I be giving my family a competitor for no reason?”Derek shook his head. “I naturally won’t run this business in Dominican and become your competitor.”After giving it some thought, Perry still didn’t believe Derek. “Your roots are all in Dominican. Why should I believe that you would leave this place and go elsewhere to run this business.”Derek shrugged. “It’s up to you to believe me or not. Mr. Perry, please get your facts right. I’m doing you a favour by asking you to recommend clients to me. To put it bluntly, the Bathhouse is in my hands now, and so are those beautiful women. Even if I take over the business directly now, what can you do for me?”Derek's words made Perry’s face turn gloomy again.But this was really what the current situation was like. Since that bastard manager had presumptuously sold the Bathhouse, Derek was the dominant p

Perry’s face was naturally extremely gloomy at this point.Derek was clearly trying to intimidate him!It was just an ordinary dice, but the power that emerged from Derek’s hand when he threw it was not inferior to the power contained in a bullet shot from a gun!Besides, the dice Derek shot had landed near Perry’s head. If Derek had intended to kill Perry, he would have probably been shot in the head by now!At the thought of this, Perry felt his entire body’s hair stand on end, and cold sweat rapidly seeped out of his pores, making him chilly all over.And Perry’s elite bodyguard was also overwhelmed with shock.As a bodyguard, he should protect his employer’s safety in any emergency situation.But the speed of the dice Derek shot out just now was so quick that it wasn’t visible to the naked eye. In fact, he only figured out what happened after hearing the terse and sharp sound of the dice shuttling through the air, followed by the loud bang.He couldn’t even react in time, let alon

When Perry saw how bold and fearless Derek was, his facial muscles twitched a little as he gritted his teeth with great resentment and viciousness in his eyes.With a hypocritical grin, he said, “Hehe, why would I do that? Since I invited you here, I naturally have something to discuss with you.”He thought he had hidden his intentions well. But being a sharp and shrewd person, Derek had long seen through Perry.“Mr. Perry, don’t beat around the bush with me. If you have anything to say, just say it.” Derek couldn’t be bothered to exchange hypocritical pleasantries with him. He simply leaned against the couch and got straight to the point.Seeing Derek taking the lead in the conversation, Perry was displeased, and his face immediately turned dark.He waved his hand, and the few scantily clad beauties sitting beside him immediately walked out of the room.Soon, only Derek, Perry, and a burly man who followed Perry wherever he went were the only ones left in the large private room.Dere

Derek frowned.He didn’t expect Aiden to die despite being in police custody.But there were definitely potential loopholes everywhere. If it was really the doing of the force that Derek guessed, the police would likely be defenceless and unable to guard against their actions.But Aiden’s death was not in vain. At the very least, Derek was now certain that the mastermind who instigated Aiden was more likely than not same person who sent the photographer.Otherwise, Aiden wouldn’t have died so easily.“Okay, I know.”Derek was about to hang up the phone when he noticed in the rearview mirror that there were several inconspicuous cars tailing his car. Their intentions were unclear, but he knew that they had to be up to no good.He frowned. They’re really everywhere. How annoying!He wondered who sent these people to tail him.With a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, Derek hung up the phone and quickly made another call. “Come to Clarine's apartment, I will send you an address.”Der

Derek couldn't tell who it was yet, but he knew he would find out.With a sharp and cold gaze in his eyes, Derek raised his head and looked distantly in the direction of the DC. “Hmph, I don’t care who you really are. As long as you dare to reach your hand here, I don’t mind chopping it off!”When Derek reached the amusement park entrance, he saw Clarine waiting here for him worriedly.“Derek, did you get what you went for? Did you find everything?” she asked curiously.Derek raised his arm with two paper bags and said with a faint smile, “I got them. Fortunately, there was no queue.Clarine grinned and teased, “It turns out you really are caring.”Derek smiled. He merely nodded and said, “Yeah, so you have to be like me as well. In the meantime, it's getting late, let's go home.”Clarine nodded happily. Soon, the two of them got into Lucas’s car and sped off.…At this moment, in a luxurious villa in Dominican.A young man in his twenties was reclining on a soft leather sofa with a s

Derek was still trying to figure out who it was, but then he scurried away quickly. But after covering only a short distance, he discovered that a tall and phantom-like figure had appeared in front of him to block him from leaving.“Still trying to run, huh?”The young man was flabbergasted because the person in front of him was the same person he had been secretly snapping photos of!A few seconds ago, this person was clearly more than meters behind him, yet he was standing in front of him in the blink of an eye. How did he do it?!Having been discovered and even stopped by the person he was secretly snapping photos of, the young man got a little nervous and gritted his teeth. He then barked in a menacing voice, “Why are you stopping me? Get lost!”Derek sneered and pointed at the camera the young man was holding. He asked indifferently, “You’ve been tailing me all afternoon, so you must have taken a lot of pictures, right? Did you think no one could discover you when you’re so clums

In fact, Derek could have chosen not to catch Aiden and let him fall to his death just now, as he ought to reap what he sowed.But the words Aiden said earlier made Derek suspect that someone was instigating him. So Derek caught him and allowed him to stay alive to interrogate him and find out more from him.But the matter of Aiden taking Clarinet hostage and trying to jump off the building with her had alarmed almost all the police systems in the city. Many reporters had also hurried over with their cameras and equipment to get the first hand news scoop.In such a situation, Derek naturally couldn’t interrogate Aiden personally. He simply handed Aiden over to the special police officers for them to investigate.The chief special police officer nodded and instructed his subordinates to send Aiden to the hospital. After Aiden came to, they would bring him in for interrogation immediately.Of course, as the parties involved in the incident, Derek and Clarine had to make a mandatory trip

Clarine watched as Derek vanished from the edge of the roof and screamed at the top of her lungs uncontrollably, “Derek!”Two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks, and she started bawling loudly, feeling as if her heart was being stabbed by daggers.In contrast, Aiden laughed out loud in great excitement. “Hahaha! What a dimwit. I managed to kill him so easily! I’m going to get rich again soon. Hahaha!”The police on the rooftop of the building couldn’t stop Derek in time and could only watch as he jumped off the building. They all shouted in horror and regret.At the same time, the crowd of onlookers on the ground also shrieked loudly in amazement.When Aiden heard the commotion at the bottom of the building, he guffawed hysterically with great smugness. Then he grabbed Clarine by the collar and looked at the ground to admire the scene of Derek’s badly mangled flesh after he fell off the building.Suddenly, there was a major change!A pair of hands suddenly reached over from the
