Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 165: Anniversary VIII: Felix's grand entrance
Outside the hall, in a shocking twist, when they brought the person they had kidnapped and taken off the cloth from his face, they realized it was not Felix. “What? How is this possible??” Someone exclaimed. But he was wearing the exact clothes Felix wore throughout… “Fuck!” That was when they realized that they had been played. They turned back, and surprisingly, the people they thought were sleeping arose from their positions, holding their guns at them. They turned back again and the person they had kidnapped also held a gun pointing at them. “Surprise, surprise,” one of them remarked, “surrender already.” Their hands slowly raised above their heads in defeat. * * Felix had a smirk on his face as he walked along the hallway towards the stage. After reaching the stage, the full lights of the room came back and everyone could see his face clearly. He could notice the shock on some people's faces, especially Jericho who seemed to be sweating hard. The henchman that came to mee

Back at the cruise ship, in the hall, Felix grabbed the microphone from Kimber Kim.“Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I am Felix Kim, the new CEO of Kim's Empire.”Gasp!Meq felt like all the air had been sucked from her lungs. Her entire body froze, eyes locked on the imposing figure gazing out over the crowd. “Help me, help me, I might faint,” Meq fanned herself, her breath unstable. She couldn't fathom how Felix, her ex-houseboy/husband was suddenly the owner of such a conglomerate.It couldn't be. Yet it undeniably was - Felix Drake, dressed to perfection in an expensive tux that hugged his muscular frame. The proud, dignified manner with which he held himself was worlds apart from the broken man she had divorced. But it was his face, those piercing eyes, that confirmed her worst fears. No other person had that distinct jawline, that intensity of gaze that seemed to cut right through her. Felix Kim. The words echoed in her mind, repeating over and over as if to convince her
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 167: Anniversary X: Call on Mayor D'Angelo
Enzo was still overwhelmed with shock and just sat on his own, isolated and lost in his own thoughts. Since the day he almost died at Jake's hands, his mental health had been greatly affected, leaving him traumatized. Almost all the time, all he could manage to say was 'don't say a word'.The news of the announcement of Felix being Kimber's son sent shockwaves through the department members. It was a huge blow to all of them, especially those who had taunted him to the brink. He had turned the tables on them, consequently causing them to lose their jobs.*After the announcement, Felix scanned through the audience. His eyes met D'Angelo's eyes and locked onto it. His eyes narrowed, his expression transforming into a taunting gaze. A wicked smile spread across his face, his cheeks stretching. "Now, to another announcement," he declared."Meq, I'm doomed." D'Angelo said, his heart sinking low. Meq, still recovering from her own plate of shock, turned her head to him and when she realiz

Their faces were filled with curiosity, fingers pointed and phones coming out, cameras ready to capture every moment.A journalist called out, breaking the silence. "Mayor D'Angelo, do you think this proposal will be approved?!" That question…. That question….D'Angelo ignored the question, eyes downcast as the audience's stares bore into him. He shuffled forward slowly."Over here, Mayor!" shouted another reporter, camera flashing. "Do you expect Felix to approve or reject your proposal!?"D'Angelo wet his lips, his mind racing, but he couldn't find the words to respond. He felt like crying out in frustration as he kept being crowded by them.When he got closer to the stage, the journalists crowded him even more, not letting him have breathing space. They ensured to capture his every reaction and movement."Sir, how do you respond to concerns about citizens being affected!?" Anothe

D'Angelo's heart sank to the lowest point. All the bragging he gave Felix on the site, all the insults he gave him in the toilet began to replay in his head. Lord, what had he done.... A tear trickled down his cheeks. Regret filled him. But Felix's expression remained the same. He focused his attention on D'Angelo now, his mocking gaze piercing through him. "Mayor D'Angelo, on the day of your celebration party, you announced 'Operation Demolition', right? Tearing down buildings to develop the city by building casinos?"He swallowed hard before replying in a quivering voice. "Y-Yes, a project that will transform -""A project that destroys many people in the process. One that affects the standard of living in the process. One that leads to loss of life in the process." Felix interrupted, his words as sharp as a knife.Murmurs rose from the crowd at his stern tone. D'Angelo spluttered, his face reddening further. He tried to redeem himself, his words stumbling. "B-But the economic gain
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 170: Filled with regret
From inside the stage, Meq had her eyes filled with tears that she could barely keep at bay. The salty tears welled up in her eyes, threatening to spill over her lashes. Her heart clenched in her chest as she kept remembering all she said to Felix in the restroom, making it difficult to breathe.She had said too much without noticing the signs that Felix was showing. It was obvious, his sudden change in aura, his magnetic charm, his strength, his sharp words, and the way he carried himself.The realization was like a punch to the gut, leaving her winded and disoriented.She strained her brain to try and recall when it all started; when the subtle changes in Felix's character began. Her mind flashed back to the day he caught her cheating with Fred, her ex-boyfriend. Yes, that was it. After that night, he suddenly changed. At that time, she noticed a change in his eyes. The light in his eyes dimmed, and a new intensity she hadn't seen before took its place. It felt as though something
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 171: Send more boys to the control room
After Felix was announced as the new owner and made all the announcements, Jericho squirmed uncomfortably in his seat, sweating despite the cool air blowing from the air conditioner.On his face, you could visibly see the signs of disappointment, anger, frustration and more other emotions.Scott, noticing Jericho's discomfort, decided to provoke him further. "Oh dear, the AC is on, yet you're sweating like you're in the Sahara desert. Is there a problem?..... Or has the plot that was laid on a solid foundation crumbled?" He said slyly, a cunning smirk adorning his face, reminding of the words he said before.Jericho heard Scott's taunt and threw a side glance at him. His hands instinctively reached for his collar and loosened it, the heat getting even worse from the tension between them. He replied, "Plots laid on a solid foundation never crumbles; they only stumble. And with the right plan, they could come back to life. If you would excuse me, Mr. Scott Hitler."Without wasting anoth

"Nice plan, Jericho," Felix thought sarcastically in his mind. Unbeknownst to Jericho, he was standing just behind the pillar all this while, watching him closely and observing his every move after he came out of the hall. He had noticed Jericho leave angrily. After the rejection of the proposal, Felix discreetly slipped away to follow Jericho, suspecting he may try something else. And that was how he found himself listening to all Jericho said.His eyes were filled with reproach towards Jericho. The only thing that held him from outrightly jumping on Jericho and attacking him was the fact that Elsa was still in his custody. He would keep playing the defense game till he retrieved Elsa from him.*In the control room, as Jericho's men were being held down by Kim's henchmen, Jake walked into the place.His eyes moved over them, observing how they were tied together helplessly, and a wicked smirk curled across his lips."Nice job, minions of Jericho Vasley," Jake sneered, his voice dri

197: When realization hits
Without hesitation, Felix lunged forward, wrapping his hand around Elsa and pulling her down behind a table, just as gunfire erupted in the small room. Bullets ricocheted off the furniture, sending splinters flying from it. “Get down!” Felix yelled, pulling Elsa closer, feeling her body press against his. He could feel her reaching into his pockets as he returned fire, the sound of gunshots ringing in his ears. “Don’t tell me you didn’t bring me a spare gun! What am I going to use?!” Elsa shot at him when she noticed his pocket empty, her eyebrow raised in disbelief and a hint of frustration on her face. She felt like slapping him for forgetting something so important, her annoyance mixed with adrenaline. Felix glanced at her, guilt and exasperation on his face. He wanted to kick himself for not being more prepared. “Never mind,” she waved her hand sharply and began looking around the cluttered room for something that could help. The guards shouted commands to each other, tryin
196: Freeze!
Felix smirked as the heat washed over him. But the smirk vanished immediately; he didn’t have time to celebrate. He dashed down the corridor, taking the stairs two at a time, heading toward the floor where he suspected Elsa might be held.Reaching the upper level, he paused, his breath coming in sharp bursts. His eyes fell on a door marked “Staff Only.” He approached cautiously and leaned in closer, straining to listen for any signs of life on the other side. The silence was deafening.He placed his ear against the door, concentrating hard to hear anything on the other side. Suddenly, the sound of heavy footsteps echoed down the hall. Felix's pulse quickened. He had to get inside, now. With a swift kick, he forced the door open and slipped inside, closing it quietly behind him.The room was dimly lit and filled with old furniture and dusty boxes. There was a table in the center of the room. His eyes scanned the space, everywhere, searching for any clue that Elsa was there. She had

“Shit!” Panic flooded him.He promised Felix he would ensure to keep anyone away from that area because he would be there. His mind raced as he quickly walked to him, blocking his view.As he got closer, he noticed the guard stiffen and frown in confusion. The guard paused and glanced behind Vito, looking sharp and on edge, as if he sensed something was wrong. He had heard the noise.“Is something wrong?” Vito asked, trying to sound casual and composed.The guard turned to him, his face darkening as he squinted. “Who are you?” he asked, his voice low and filled with suspicion. Vito noticed the guard's hand moving toward his weapon, fingers twitching as he assessed the situation.Vito stood up straight. “I’m the managing director of Vasley Group,” Vito said, keeping his voice calm and confident. A small smirk appeared on his lips.The guard's eyes widened in surprise, and he quickly relaxed, bowing his head. Fear and respect flickered across his face.“I'll ask again: is something wro

Felix walked down a grand flight of stairs, the sound of his footsteps echoing softly in the hallway as he headed for the backdoor. “Vito?” He called into the airpod, keeping his voice low but clear.“Yes, Boss,” he replied through the receiver.Felix paused for a moment and glanced over his shoulder to see if anyone was watching him closely. “The floor opposite the rear exit. Guard that area. Ensure no one goes closer, if anything seems wrong, alert me right away.”“Yes, Boss,” he responded.Felix took a deep breath and began to move, continuing down the stairs. He took long strides towards the rear exit, ensuring to avoid any guards around him.He decided to go on this mission alone to not raise suspicion so he let Jake attend the event in place of him. As he opened the door, he spotted a CCTV above, on the wall. Immediately, he grabbed a plank and swung it against it, hitting it several times.The lens shattered, sending bits of plastic flying.With the camera out of the way, he

They drifted to the edge of the ballroom.“Where's Elsa now?” Jen asked in a hushed tone once they were out of earshot, feeling nervous.Jake shook his head grimly. “Felix is still looking, but no word yet.” Vito looked around the ballroom, carefully observing everyone mingling and discussing. He didn't see any sign of Diane Fox among the wealthy and glamorous guests. He frowned slightly and discreetly waved over one of the nearest Vasley employees.He leaned in close so he could be heard over music. “Excuse me, have you seen Miss Diane? I didn't notice her with the Fox family earlier.”The worker shrugged without much interest. “Last I saw, she ran off the moment she got in. Probably hiding and crying in one of the empty sitting rooms, if you ask me.”Vito frowned in thought. He quickly sent a short message to Felix:“Diane is missing from the main event. Employee thinks she's hiding alone in an empty room. Let me know what you want to do next.”After sending the message, Vito put
191: Handled the attention perfectly
“It would take a while to recover from this hit,” Jake remarked as they sat in the car, watching the hectic scene happening on the red carpet through the tinted windows.Jen looked out at the flashing lights and swarming paparazzi. She turned to him. “Even worse since Glitz and Glamour is leading now.” She had a satisfied smile on her face. Jake glanced over at her. "Are you ready to step out?" he asked. "The attention might be overwhelming."Jen took a slow, deep breath to calm her nerves. Being at the center of attention was scary. “As long as it's for Ma'am Elsa. So, yeah,” she said, arranging her dress and clutching her purse. Jake gave a subtle nod and got out of the car, then hurried around to open her door, offering his hand. Jen grabbed it gratefully with a smile as she stepped out.She held a confident smile, allowing her aura to radiate as she headed to the red carpet.A reporter in the front spotted her and did a double take, shocked to recognize her. "Isn't that the P.A

The incident had blown up really nice, and she knew it would cost an arm and a leg for damage control. Not that Vasleys were not up to the task, but they knew how hard it would be. She went back into the room, completing her makeup. She spent over half an hour carefully twisting and winding her hair into an elegant style on top of her head. She used pretty pins in red and shiny silver colors to match her accessories for the evening. The style highlighted her beauty. She realized just how much she had glowed up after the arrest and smiled.Stepping back from the mirror, she picked up the blue dress. The shiny satin material shimmered under the light. Small crystals were sewn neatly along the fitted top part. “This definitely fits the theme,” she smiled as she began to wear the dress. It went all the way to the floor, flattering her. She arranged all she needed and began to walk outside.She looked up and down the quiet sidewalk for Jake as she adjusted the thin straps on her shoulde
