Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 241
“What?!” Andrew was stunned. He immediately stood up, causing the glass cup to flip over, fall to the ground and shatter in pieces.“How did this happen?” Andrew muttered to himself. He really couldn’t digest the nightmare-like news all of a sudden. He would never dream of the fact that someone somewhere could learn about their hidden factories and link it back to them as the originator.He gulped hard, blinked severally in surprise while his feet were glued to the spot."Yes Mr Justin. I had this confirmed just now from several sources.""It's impossible." Andrew said barely above a whisper.They would not only never be able to deliver the goods, but with their factories sealed because of quality problems, they would probably have to face countless demands for compensation from many of their partners!If their factories and warehouses remained sealed for a long time, not only would their capital chain be completely broken, but their reputation would also be tarnished forever. It was

Derek’s tone was extremely calm, but Bright could feel the immense might, unparalleled confidence, and condescension in his tone.Derek was definitely not an arrogant person who had blind confidence in himself. The fact that he dared to say this meant that his combat skills were already far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.Bright thought of the scene when his family henchmen went flying and crippled with a single kick before they could even dodge, and his heart was immediately full of horror and fear.Derek’s purpose in saying this was actually to scare and deter him, lest he harbored thoughts he shouldn’t have.After ending the call, Derek pondered for a bit and then called Gage to ask him to come over.He briefly told him what Bright had just said. When he learned that the Justins had actually sent a so-called expert to try to assassinate Derek, a trace of excitement and murderous intent appeared in his eyes. “Young Master, I’m going to kill that guy now!”Derek shook h

The man who kicked Spike was naturally Gage, who had been staying nearby to observe the battle secretly.When Blade saw Gage, his tense heart relaxed a little.He had almost suffered a lethal slit on his neck and a stab in the heart by Spike moments ago!“Stand back,” Gage said to Blade before staring at Spike ’s chest and face.Blade knew that he wasn’t a match for Spike and obediently retreated far away from the battlefield despite being full of reluctance so that he wouldn’t get in Gage’s way.Watching their actions, Spike suddenly said, “Are you also Derek’s subordinate? Your combat skills are quite impressive. I didn’t see your movements clearly at all.”Gage suddenly sneered. “I really didn’t expect a prestigious person to become someone’s lackey and be at their beck and call! Moreover, are you so blind to recognise me?"When Spike heard the words prestigious, his expression changed drastically, and horror appeared all over his face.He stared at Gage and said in a shaky vo
Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 244
As Gage left, Spike stared at his back in a daze, but the things Gage said before leaving echoed repeatedly in his mind.‘I can kill you now on the grounds that you tried to assassinate my boss."’ "No, the person the Justin wants me to kill is called Derek Brook. Could Derek Brook be his boss! How could a whole Gage have a boss such as Derek? He said to himself."No, no, Gage is different, and he can never be a subordinate to him.""If Gage is a subordinate then his superior must be so powerful, considering Gage's status."Spike’s heart suddenly jumped, and he struggled to get up from the ground to catch up to Gage and clarify his doubts.But Gage had long already gotten into the car that was parked a short distance away and left together with Blade.He then fell to his knees and cried out loudly in agony.On the other hand, when Gage and Blade arrived, they headed straight to the Emerald Group to look for Derek. Then Gage reported to Derek about Spike being someone familiar to him.

You! Bastard, what nonsense are you babbling about?!” Andrew pointed at Spike’s nose furiously and berated at the top of his lungs. “Who is it that we can’t afford to offend? Who? Tell me! The Justins have already developed to where we are now, and we’re also a first-class family in this city! Let’s see who has the ability to make the Justins disappear!”Andrew had always been a conceited and arrogant person, so Spike’s words greatly angered him, and he found his explanation to be completely unacceptable.At this moment, he seemed to have forgotten the predicament that the Justins were currently in. All of their secret factories and warehouses had been sealed, and within less than two weeks, the Justins would go bankrupt.Moreover, after knowing Derek’s identity, Spike understood exactly how the Justins had landed themselves in this predicament.He had wanted to advise Andrew not to offend Derek again on account that he had worked for the Justins for ten years. But he was well aware
Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 246
Spike's voice was extremely calm, and he didn’t seem to have any fear of death or desire to live. Andrew’s eyes widened in shock, and he was speechless for a while.He could tell that Spike had really decided to leave the Justins, even if it meant that he had to die!In fact, Spike was already bent on dying at that moment, as a result, Andrew frowned. It was completely different from the outcome that he wanted to see. His goal wasn’t to kill Spike.He lowered his voice and softly advised, “Spike, you’re only in your early age now, and you still have decades of good times waiting for you in a bright future. So, why do you have to be so stubborn? Actually, if you stay with the Justins, it’d be good for both you and everyone. Don’t you agree?“If you’d like, I can give you a luxurious villa and let you enjoy an endless amount of money and fortune. If you want a partner, I can find you all kinds of beautiful women to choose from. Even if you’ve gotten sick of killing, I can also arrange a

Andrew pondered for a moment and soon recalled what Allen had told him before. He sneered. “Are you referring to the Hemsworth?”Derek smiled and nodded. “Yes, for the records I know you are quite a doubtful being, so I implore you to check the authenticity of my report."Andrew snorted coldly. “Are you trying to tell me that the Hemsworth offended you? Let me tell you. If you want to threaten me with this matter, you’ve made the wrong plan!""Bad for you, you could have sought for something else to cajole me instead of this terrible lie.""But then, you might have collected our properties, made us sign but then, you wouldn't see the last of us."“I know that what happened to the Hemsworth that day was just a coincidence! You are just a good-for-nothing son in law who makes a lot of mouth without actions.""If the Reids had not disowned you, you would still be living within their capacity. Ours happened because we were gullible too, but then, we wouldn't slave to you Derek. Never!""I

Spike's horrified expression remained on his face just as he was about to leap over and protect Derek. He discovered to his astonishment that Derek, who was just standing near him, had suddenly vanished!Immediately afterward, Spike felt a force tugging at his collar. His body couldn’t help but propel into the air as the scene in front of him began to spin and become blurry.The several pistols fired at the same time with gunshots that resembled the sounds of beans exploding. All of a sudden, the space at the entrance of the justins residence was awash with the sounds of gunshots, making people’s hearts palpitate.But when the sound of the gunshots stopped, everyone looked over at the entrance, only to see Derek and his men, who should have been unable to escape, standing right there unscathed!Derek still looked as composed as ever. But Spike, whom he was lifting by the collar, had an indescribable look of astonishment on his face.The Justins looked at each other and blinked, dumbfo

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

CHAPTER 286
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

CHAPTER 285
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
