Rise Of The Sole Heir CHAPTER 70
The duo took Clarine to her residence, after which the couple returned home.Thankfully, her parents had settled and weren't concerned about locking the young lady up again.That gave Brenda some peace of mind, but even after arriving home, Brenda couldn’t put her mind to rest. As such, she called her husband up to the room. “Derek, how are you going to solve this problem? You've told so many people about the house. Won’t it be embarrassing for us if our lies are exposed? I won't be able to face the crowd of his friends if I meet with them.""And you, they definitely wouldn't respect you. They end up spreading the news all over the Dominican.""What the hell came over you?! Telling them I had just one car was enough. It wasn't even necessary either. Why should you have? The House was just enough."Worry was well written over Brenda's face.. Yet she was angered over the fact that Derek was too relaxed.At the sight of her knitted brows, Derek couldn’t help but chuckle. “Come over sil

"Guys what do you think? I think it's quite better to agree to whatever meal today, if we give them more time, they might use that opportunity to borrow funds and put things they've not got in place."Greg met with his friends in the early hours of the day to make deliberations."Yea, you said right! I equally didn't trust Derek or whatever his name is. He seems like a tyrant."All of them present couldn't help but laugh. "You are right Greg, let's set the meal for today." the friend who currently spoke pauses his lips."What do you think? Should we dress nicely, or… Casual…" the friend who currently spoke sneered. "Nicely of course. But if no other person stresses well enough, I bet my guy here should." he hit Greg playfully on the arm."Of course, I can't wait to see the expression of being defeated on that good for nothing and then Brenda comes running into my arms." he opened his arm excitedly while he imagined."Guy, she's pregnant… How about that?""It says nothing. I can stil

Derek appointed a bus to go for Greg and his few friends met that day.Surprisingly, they were more of them waiting to follow the bus than expected.Before the bus arrived, they had already waited at the entrance of Greg’s neighborhood for half an hour, but they had neither seen nor heard anything.One of the friends panicked, calling the attention of others. “Don't you think that Brenda and that guy, were lying to us? Maybe she hasn’t even bought a house.”“I think so too." Another answered immediately.“Look, it’s been half an hour, but we haven’t even heard anything from them. It's not like the are traveling from Asia! It's still within Dominican, so why the fuck! How far could their house be for the bus not to be here yet?”“I guess we should give it sometime, and if they still refuse to arrive, we go our ways, but they won't go unpunished."They jointly concluded and waited for another ten minutes, after which they saw a bus arrive just in their direction. Immediately, the driv

After the tour around the house which left everyone's jaw hanging, Greg spoke out of the blues."Guys, this is a lie. I have this feeling deep down inside me that this building was leased just to please us. The duo are trying to manipulate us into their lies."Greg yelled out to make a point among his friends. An opinion which left the couple surprised."Haven't you guys heard that the guy here is a useless son in law, so let's think about this. When and where did he get such a huge amount of money to purchase such a huge edifice.""Think! Think! Think!" Greg went round his friends talking to them one after the other."You shouldn't believe what they say, you've all known me for a very long time, and I bet you all cannot believe him over myself."'Is this guy a fool or what?!" Derek spoke underneath his breath but Brenda was smart enough to hear what he said."Yea, you really are right dear, he's a nitwit."Derek expected Greg would stop at trying to convince his friends but he was wr

Faster than imagined, Gage had ordered Taylor to work on the surveillance camera for the specified location, and within a few minutes, they had sent a video completely packed with everything needed as evidence.Not that alone, he ordered for some of Gage's men who were quite capable enough in handling Python.As quick as he could, Derek glanced at his phone, he carefully watched the video with a distinctive mind approach.After he confirmed the necessity, he tossed his phone over to Meredith ."Check it out yourself." she was at first slightly confused, but she instinctively opened the video.The first few minutes she watched, she was totally engulfed in the pool of her emotions that she couldn't help but cup her palm against her mouth.Another few minutes to the middle of the video, ended up releasing some tears.Not until after the whole video, Meredith ended up bursting into uncontrolled tears.“I am finally proven innocent, those that oppressed me are finally the guilty ones!"

The caller was quite persistent. The call kept coming In over and over again. "Why didn't you pick it up?" Brenda knitted her brow in query."I obviously don't know who it is, neither am I ready to know."Brenda hijacked the phone from him. She trusted him so well that he would never cheat on her, but she felt she needed to know who the caller was.Since his heart was clean, he let the phone go without struggle, while he gazed at Brenda as she picked In his stead."Hello young son in law of the Reids…" a feminine voice which Brenda recognised even in her dreams spoke from the other side, but she was speechless.Brenda only glanced at her husband in surprise. She wondered how Autumn got Derek's number."Who is it?!" Brenda instantly cupped her hand around his mouth before he spoke further."Young son in law… I want us to meet. But you can choose whatever venue and whatever time you deem fit, you are in charge." Autumn laughed wickedly.Brenda was in a fit of rage, she couldn't hold

Never in her entire life has Brenda been bullied in this manner.Her family must have uttered several unbearable words towards her and her spouse, but never had she been slapped right in the face.Brenda had thought to retaliate, but her weak state wouldn't allow it.

He was just about to get off the vehicle when he got informed by Alex that Brenda had left for a while now, and she was yet to return.Immediately, he returned to the vehicle to look for her.He tried calling her digits but it rang severally without an answer. Then Derek got unseemingly worried.It was never like her to keep his calls pending, not to mention the fact that he had called more than twice. Derek drove as fast as he could, and at the same time, he kept trying h

Brenda's cheeks were swollen from the slaps dashed into her face by Helen, a mere glance at her by Derek, he knew she needed medical attention.He felt pained looking at the marks at the same time, he bit himself inwardly in regret, he felt he could have done better by saving the situation if perhaps he arrived earlier enough, or if he was opportuned to take her to Trastar.She had suffered enough in the hands of her family. Now, she had even been beaten up by a crazy woman on the streets.Derek’s heart couldn’t help but ache for her.

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
CHAPTER 291
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
CHAPTER 290
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
CHAPTER 288
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
CHAPTER 287
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
