THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 17: Settling the Score with Andrew
Andrew's face instantly turned pale, his heart sinking like a stone in water. However, all the banquet guests were staring at him, their eyes fixed on his every move, especially the captivating Clara who stood right beside him, her gaze unwavering."I can't panic, I can't let them notice anything amiss," Andrew thought to himself. With a tremendous effort, he mustered a strained smile and replied, "Haha, thank you, Mr. Hewitt. I've always valued our relationship and look forward to continuing our successful cooperation. In fact, I've already prepared the renewal fee for this round. It's a substantial sum of one million dollars!"As Andrew spoke into the phone, the voice on the other end delivered a crushing blow. "I'm sorry, Mr. McDonald, but our company has dispatched a representative from the headquarters to assume control of taxi's operations in Los Angeles. We no longer require the services of a general agent like yourself."Despite the devastating news, Andrew maintained his faca
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 18: Lowly Andrew
After hearing the words of Ms. Julia and Sophie, the guests, who had been tense and nervous moments before, noticeably began to relax.It was intriguing how the affluent offspring had been pampered and privileged since youth. The idea of one of them willingly becoming a live-in son-in-law for three years seemed almost unbelievable.The decision to retain Andrew as the general agent seemed unrelated to Ethan in everyone's eyes.Perhaps it was mere chance that Ethan happened to be the one making the call, adopting an authoritative tone. Or maybe Ethan had been privy to the news prior to the call.Nevertheless, Andrew's professional future hung in the balance, an undeniable reality etched in stone.A subtle wink from Ms. Julia to Klein conveyed a silent message, prompting him to swiftly grasp the red roses gifted by Andrew and make his way over."Andrew, take back these red roses. My sister's preferences have shifted, and the scent of red roses no longer appeals to her," Klein remarked co
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 19: Gift of 1million dollars
Sophie's attractive figure was credited to her diet and not her genetics. Every time he dined with Sophie, Ethan noticed she enjoyed eating foods that were said to enhance certain physical features, like papaya. Ethan glanced at Sophie's already stunning figure and remarked, "You probably don't need any more papaya, do you?" Sophie was immediately incensed and got up, moving closer to Ethan. Standing there, she seemed almost towering over him. When Ethan met her gaze, he felt like he was staring at majestic peaks... Sophie demanded angrily, "Ethan, what did you mean by that just now? Why shouldn't I eat papaya anymore?" As Sophie was Ethan's cousin-in-law, he couldn't be too direct in his response. Ethan replied, "Never mind, just forget about it. I'll bring the soup over to you. You can enjoy it on your own." After Ethan took the initiative to bring the soup to Sophie, she remained discontent. She approached Old Ms. Mimi's table and voiced her complaints. "Grandma, please do
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM chapter 20: Divorce
Ethan, the sole witness present, was privy to the fact that the person who dispatched the deliveryman with the gift was Richard Jose. It was evident that only the Sinclair family possessed the audacity to entrust a delivery person with an item valued at 1 million dollars. The arrival of this gift at the event left all the guests in a state of astonishment. "This emerald jadeite bracelet stands out as the most extravagant among today's birthday offerings!" "Ms. Julia, to whom do we owe the pleasure of such a generous gift? You must make introductions later." The guests approached Old Ms. Mimi seeking answers. Even she was perplexed, unable to fathom the source of the 1 million dollar gift. "This is puzzling. Every family associated with the Reynolds is accounted for today. No one seems to have been overlooked. So, who could have sent this bracelet?" The members of the Reynolds family exchanged uncertain glances. Sophie's gaze lingered on the million-dollar bracelet, her curiosit
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 21: stay in a five star hotel
Examining the global dissolution document, Ethan let out a deep breath of release. It seemed as though the weight of his bottled-up emotions and dissatisfaction from the preceding three years had lifted."At last, I'm free from the confines of being a resident son-in-law."Stepping out of the legal consultant's workplace, Ethan found himself overcome by a mix of feelings.His upcoming venture would involve delving into the world of business, requiring his full dedication and focus!In that instant, Maya sneered, "Oh, you're not a live-in son-in-law anymore, but an abandoned one! That's even more humiliating than being a live-in son-in-law!""An abandoned son-in-law.""A live-in son-in-law whose wife left him?""Feel free to interpret it however you like!"Ethan chose not to engage further with the pragmatic woman whose love for money overshadowed everything else. He waved for a cab nonchalantly and departed.Maya, consumed by indignation despite being in the wrong, believed she hadn't
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM chapter 22: Ethan is a thief
Tony and Maya were completely taken aback by what they saw. The sight before them was beyond their wildest imagination. The man they had once cast aside as their son-in-law was now comfortably settled in a luxurious five-star hotel. The opulence and grandeur of the place seemed almost surreal to them. The price tag for a single night's stay in this lavish establishment was an exorbitant sum, well over a thousand dollars. Tony couldn't help but voice his disbelief, turning to Maya with a look of incredulity. "Maya, are you absolutely certain that he's only had a few hundred dollars to his name all this time?" Tony questioned, his tone a mixture of confusion and suspicion. "Could it be possible that he has been hiding a substantial amount of money from us all along, squirreling it away behind your back over the past three years?" Maya shook her head in bewilderment and replied, "I really don't know... it's possible that he did." Tony, deep in thought, pursed his lips and mused
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 23:The thief of the watch worth 800 thousand dollars
After Clara finished her cigarette, she gracefully rose from her seat and bid farewell to the Reynolds. "Old Ms. Mimi, Mr. Reynolds, I have some matters to attend to at the office, so I must take my leave," Clara announced. Old Ms. Mimi and the others accompanied Clara to the door. "Miss Walport, we are placing our trust in you for the investment," Old Ms. Mimi expressed warmly as she clasped Clara's hand. Clara responded with a smile, "You can count on me. Rest assured." Observing Clara's departure, James decided it was time to bid his own farewell. "Old Ms. Mimi, Mr. Reynolds, we should make our way as well," he announced. As the guests realized a thief was in their midst and the mysterious benefactor who gifted the bracelet remained absent, they gradually dispersed, heading their separate ways. Before long, the Reynolds found themselves alone in the banquet hall. Old Ms. Mimi turned to Ms. Julia with a questioning gaze. "What did Maya say? How is it that we only uncovered hi
