Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 57. Who is your Boss?
Felix could never have imagined how sharp a newcomer could be - someone who had just arrived yesterday already knew everything.His hunch was right after all; with the announcement of Kimber Kim having an heir, all of their enemies would be lured out of hiding one by one. And he was fully prepared for them!"You look really stylish today," Felix said, glancing at Jake's outfit, pretending to admire it. But when his eyes landed on Jake's boots, he frowned.A sly grin spread across Jake's face. "Of course, someone like you should know the meaning of stylish," he said, turning off the tap and facing Felix.Felix turned his head to gaze at Jake. "Someone like me? You seem to know a lot about me," he said, turning off the tap too and taking short strides towards Jake. "I'd like to hear it."Jake only scoffed and said nothing. However, as he tried to launch a punch at Felix, Felix quickly dodged it, grabbed his neck, and pinned him against the wall."Trying to pull a fast one on me?" Felix

"God damnit!" Felix cursed, feeling the sticky feel on his face, especially his eyes. He removed his hands from Jake's neck, scowling at him. "What the F did you spray on my face?!" Jake sneered, "it's just oil based paint!" He maneuvered out of Felix's grasp and tore down the streets before Felix could open his eyes.Felix took out an handkerchief from his pocket, using it to clean off the paint from his face. "Fuck! Fuck!" He cursed because no matter where he looked, Jake was out of sight.He felt like hitting his head on the wall and giving himself a good knock. This was the second time he was losing Jake in the run.He stood there for a moment, breathing heavily. He would have to be even more vigilant now, cause whoever it is had more eyes on him than he could think of.Felix turned around to head back to the company but realized that he had lost his way during the pursuit. He hailed a cab and headed back to the company to see his father."Dad, we have a problem!" Felix exclaimed
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 59. The Shocking Revelations (2)
Elsa was confused; she couldn't figure out what he meant. But she was shocked to see how he knew her mother was a nanny before she died. "It's you, Elsa. You are the..." Felix suddenly stopped, remembering he was still keeping his identity a secret. He can't reveal anything to her yet.But he still couldn't believe it.All this while... Elsa was the little girl? Elsa was Lili? No wonder she felt familiar since the beginning. No wonder it was much easier to get along with her than any other person.He couldn't help but compare Elsa's facial features to that of her younger self. They had purely the same features especially the ones that stood out– auburn hair and sparkling amber eyes. Even her cheeky and lively nature was a pure replica of that annoying little brat; except that she was more accommodating now. Meanwhile, Elsa was still confused and stared at Felix, who gave her an emotional look that she had never seen before."Felix, I am what?" She raised a brow, referring to his i
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 60. Jake???
Every piece of memory materialized in her head and she found herself holding her head in pain. She recalled everything; how she always played and fought with a younger version of Felix and how Kimber Kim gave her the anklet on her 4th birthday. So the man who gave her the anklet was a quadrillionaire? What a fate!Swiveling to face Felix's direction, Elsa took a deep breath and they both found themselves scoffing at each other's expressions."Wow, let me get this straight, Felix. My mom used to be your nanny, and you're the same little boy I used to play with when we were both kids? That's why you seemed so familiar right from the start. And your dad's face looked so familiar too. It all makes sense now. This is crazy," Elsa exclaimed, her eyes blinking with tears. She took a look at her mother's grave again and found herself breaking into uncontrollable tears.It was such an emotional sight to see. Felix contemplated whether he should tell her the main reason for her mom's death.
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 61. The bodyguard
"What the... You jerk!" Felix charged at Jake but was held back by Kimber Kim."Hey, son..." Kimber Kim uttered."Oops! Don't blow a fuse," Jake exclaimed, sporting a lively grin."Dad, what's that asshole of a spy doing in here?!" Felix glared at Jake, demanding answers from Kimber Kim.What the hell was a spy doing with his father? And why wasn't he behind bars?"Chill, Felix. Jake's actually your new bodyguard. Your grandpa thought it'd be a good idea to test your skills, so he made Jake do all that. In fact, that's why we're here today," Kimber Kim explained.Felix was shook by what Kimber Kim just said. So Jake wasn't a spy or a sniper after all?Jake approached Felix with a friendly grin on his face. "See, I told you my boss was someone unexpected. Looks like I was right."Felix rolled his eyes, still skeptical. "So you're not some crazy sniper?""Do I even look like a sniper to you?" Jake snickered."What about those boots?""Half the people in this town wear those boots, dude.
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 62. Surprised?
The nurse laughed in his face. "Oh dear, don't embarrass yourself. What do you need him for, a job? Even if you could see him, I swear you wouldn't stand a chance," She flicked her hair back and went back to her work.Meq's anger boiled over. "You useless piece of crap! I'll make sure you rot in jail!" she yelled with a squeal, attracting everyone's attention.A woman sitting nearby spoke up. "Excuse me, miss, is that guy your driver?""Yes," Meq blurted, not thinking twice before letting the word fall off her lips. Felix shot her a cold glance and she gulped, her spine freezing.He was only staying there to make sure Dice got treated. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't be wasting his time here, listening to her nonsense. "Thought as much... He looks even worse than a driver," the woman sneered and the other patients sitting on that roll laughed, including her.Felix ignored them and texted Scott for information on the owner of SafeHealth hospital."He is Samuel Hunter, and he wil
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 63. She was drunk
Felix's eyes bulged wide in shock as Elsa's soft lips pressed against his own. He felt her boozy breath mix with the scent of liquor and even if he wanted to stop her, he couldn't help but lean into the kiss, grabbing her waist and pulling her closer.Her hands moved to his collar and grabbed it, deepening the kiss. Felix wanted to stop, but he found himself lost in the taste of her lips.Before he knew it, they were on the bed, and Elsa was trying to unbutton his shirt. That's when Felix's hesitation turned to alarm. No, at this point, he had to stop. Elsa was his friend, and he didn't want to ruin their friendship by taking advantage of her drunken state. He could tell that she was too far gone and this wasn't the real Elsa. He didn't want her to regret anything when she wakes up the next day. With that thought, he gently wriggled out of her grasp, breaking the kiss."Elsa, I think you've had too much to drink," he said, his voice raspy.Elsa looked up at him, her eyes glas
Secretly The Quadrillionaire's Heir 64. The August visitor
The car was a bright shade of blue, and reflected wealthiness.As he walked towards the living room, he could hear two voices instead of one. He opened the door to find his wife sitting on the couch, chatting away with a strange blonde lady who appeared to be around the same age as her. Felix figured out it might be a friend he knows nothing of.He sauntered in, and was greeted with a hiss and eye roll from Meq. "Who's that? Is he your houseboy?" the blonde lady asked, with a posh British accent, her nose crinkling in disgust.Ignoring her, Felix turned his attention to the baby, Dice, who was made to sit on the couch with some toys to play with. Felix checked the baby's temperature and it seemed okay. Good thing she's been caring for Dice all this while. "Tina, doesn't he look like one? He's just a poor man who was dragged into this home by my dad," Meq shot back."A live-in son-in-law? Like he's your husband? That's just sad, Meq. How miserable your life must been to have this..

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
