THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM chapter 27: Become the CEO
Chief Lee observed Maya and Tony, sensing the unique bond between them.He addressed Maya, saying, "Ms. Reynolds, we cannot make an arrest of Mr. Ethan unless there is concrete evidence implicating him.""If you are insistent on his arrest, kindly provide evidence such as video footage or photographs showing him stealing the watch, or any proof of him selling the watch in exchange for money.""Also, refrain from labeling your ex-husband as a pauper or a good-for-nothing. Remember, you both shared a marriage, and such words can inflict deep wounds," "I speak the truth. If Ethan had shown a bit more competence, maybe we wouldn't have ended up divorced," Maya retorted sharply."It was you who instigated the divorce from Ethan... Mr. Sinclair, am I correct?" With a smug expression, Maya responded, "Yes, I was the one who filed for divorce! I wonder if he's feeling regretful yet?"The police officers, aware of Ethan's true identity, maintained their composure and simply smiled and offere
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 28: Ashley Sarah
Ethan was eager to embrace his new position as a commanding CEO after spending three years as a live-in son-in-law.Despite his anticipation for the role, Ethan's excitement did not stem from his upcoming identity as the CEO. Having risen from humble beginnings, Ethan had grown weary of the false sense of superiority that often accompanied being perceived as better than others.Ethan's excitement stemmed from Clara, the enchanting Deputy President of the Walt Disney organization. Known for her ability to captivate the elite men of Los Angeles's upper-class circles, Clara held a magnetic allure that intrigued Ethan.Making his way to the lobby on the first floor of the building, Ethan encountered a security gantry.Living in the technologically advanced city of Los Angeles, even the gantry on the first floor was equipped with state-of-the-art features such as fingerprint and facial recognition access systems.As it was Ethan's inaugural day at work, he hadn't had the chance to enroll
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 29: Miss Walport Clara is here
Clara mingle in the upper class society of Los Angeles and hence, knew all the tycoons. She had a long list of suitors too. However, no one had ever heard of her having a boyfriend. 'Maybe Walport Clara into women!' Ethan thought. "Hey, what are you thinking about!?! Hurry up and answer me. Why are you here at our office!?!" Sarah said in a firm voice. Ethan snapped back to his senses and said, "I'm Ethan Sinclair, the New president of Walt Disney organization." Ashley Sarah's jaw dropped, and her mouth was so wide open that it could fit an egg. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr Sinclair! I'm too stupid. Since you had the key to the door, you must be the president! But, please forgive me, Miss Walport said that there's a suspicious person in the office, so I..." Ethan was surprised after hearing her explanation. 'suspicious person?" "Damn, the Reynolds have been tailing me! Annoying pests who won't leave me alone!" Ethan immediately figure out what was going on. "Oka
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 30: Clara Walport unsettling experience
Clara had always been the undisputed idol of the female employees at the company. Her legendary status stemmed from her extraordinary ability to make even the most powerful corporate presidents seem insignificant. No matter how rich or influential these men were, they seemed to shrink in her presence.Every woman in the office aspired to emulate Clara’s commanding presence and effortless control over even the most obstinate executives. The fascination was not just about her authority but about how effortlessly she could bend the most powerful figures to her will.There was a particularly notorious president from a billion-dollar partner company who had a reputation for causing chaos and evading any form of restraint. His behavior had left the office staff powerless and frustrated—until Clara intervened. In a stunning display of dominance, Clara had subdued him with such swiftness and precision that within two minutes, he was on his knees, compelled to put her shoes on for her.The ent

Outside the door... Sarah and the other two girls watched in stunned silence.They covered their mouths, unable to believe what they were seeing.“How could this happen?” one whispered in disbelief.“Mr. Sinclair isn’t kneeling before Miss Walport; it’s the other way around!” another gasped.“It didn’t even take a minute! As soon as they met, Miss Walport was on her knees!” a third exclaimed.The trio’s amazement grew as they realized that Ethan Sinclair’s charm and authority were so overpowering that even Clara, who usually held herself in high esteem, was compelled to submit. Hearing the commotion outside the door, Ethan peeked through the gap, causing the startled trio to flee in a panic.Ethan then approached Clara, who remained kneeling, and looked down at her without offering any help. With a slight smile, he said, “Miss Walport, why are you kneeling before me so soon after we’ve met? I can’t accept such a grand gesture from you.”Clara, feeling a mix of embarrassment and fru
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 32: You will address me as Miss Walport
Ethan's mind was set on overturning the established hierarchy in Los Angeles. Whether it was the hotel magnate, the restaurant mogul, or the delivery service owner, he planned to dismantle the dominance of these influential figures who had controlled the city for years. Among them, Tony was the first person who came to Ethan’s mind. Tony was a particularly bitter memory for Ethan, as he recalled his ex-wife Maya's taunts. “Look at Tony. His family is worth over a billion dollars. Can you even compare to him, you good-for-nothing?” she had said.Ethan's jaw tightened as he spoke to Clara. “I’ve heard that the West family is one of the top-tier families in Los Angeles, worth over a billion dollars. Is that true?”Clara responded, “You could say that. The West family was worth over a billion dollars two years ago, but their net worth has significantly dropped. They’re now probably worth around 500 million dollars, not much better than the Reynolds.”As Clara recalled Ethan’s claim from
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 33: Maya's arouse
Ethan was bewildered by Tony’s outburst. 'What’s wrong with this idiot? Does Tony West even have a functioning brain?'Ethan thought. 'What kind of nonsense is he spewing now?'Tony, convinced of his own cleverness, assumed he’d pieced everything together. He remembered Sarah and her colleagues talking about someone kneeling, and he surmised that Ethan must have been the one to kneel before Clara. He figured Ethan had begged for Clara’s forgiveness and pleaded to become her bodyguard.Tony smirked and taunted, “Ethan Sinclair, weren’t you so high and mighty at the birthday banquet? Miss Walport offered you a chance to be her bodyguard, and you turned her down. We all thought you were too proud to bow down. But now, here you are, groveling!”Tony laughed mockingly. “Haha, I didn’t expect you to get out of bed early and come here dressed as a bodyguard just to beg Miss Walport to let you be her lackey!”Turning to Clara, he added, “Miss Walport, don’t be fooled. During the banquet yeste

Maya’s frustration boiled over as she considered confronting Ethan and Clara directly. She longed to demand answers from Ethan about why he had kneeled for another woman and not her, and to accuse Clara of stealing what she felt was rightfully hers.Old Ms. Mimi, however, glared at Maya with disapproval and asserted, “Enough of your tantrum. Call Clara Walport. I want to speak with her personally.”Klein immediately complied, pulling out his cell phone and dialing Clara’s number with a swift motion. He handed the phone to Old Ms. Mimi, who took it with a resolute expression, ready to address the situation herself.Despite Old Ms. Mimi’s underlying anger, her voice remained calm and composed, reflecting her years of experience and dignity. She spoke with a measured authority, making her displeasure clear without losing her poise.“Miss Walport, I understand that Ethan has become your bodyguard. Had I known you had taken such an interest in him, I would have gladly offered him to you si

Of course, Maya was aware that Cayden's compliment was likely directed at her as well. Back in private, she could behave more familiarly with him, but with Ethan present, she had to maintain an air of indifference, keeping her distance.Cayden, observing the subtle dynamics, thought to himself with a smirk, Ethan Sinclair certainly seems to have a way with women. His wife is a rare beauty, and he used to have such a striking subordinate in Clara Walport.Turning his attention back to Clara, Cayden said with a taunting edge, "Miss Walport, you're quite the arrogant one, aren't you? You tried to use your position as the president of Walt Disney Corporation to crush my cousin, even challenging the Wests to take you on."He paused, letting the words sink in. "The Wests may not have the guts to go after you, but the Huxleys aren’t afraid."Cayden’s gaze hardened as he continued, "I was planning to ease up on attacking your company once Ethan Sinclair was out of the picture. But since you’v
Chapter 122: I’m sorry, Ethan
Tony’s face twisted in anger as he jabbed a finger toward Clara."Clara Walport! You think you can teach me a lesson? Who the hell do you think you are!?"This wasn’t the first time Clara had slapped him. Counting the previous incident in her office, this made three.And despite his bravado, he was genuinely afraid of her.Clara stood tall, her icy glare drilling into him. Her presence alone was suffocating."Your father and I are equals in the business world, which makes you nothing more than a junior in comparison. So tell me, why shouldn’t I educate you?" she shot back.Her voice grew sharper, more condescending."Or have you forgotten how your father behaves around me? Giovanni West wags his tail like a dog whenever he sees me. And yet you dare question my authority?!"A wave of laughter spread across the restaurant.Guests sneered at Tony, whispering among themselves.Clara wasn’t just making empty claims. She was the most respected and influential businesswoman in Los Angeles, a
Chapter 121: A hard slap
When a man falls from grace, the world is quick to turn its back on him.Tony knew that feeling all too well. Once, people had treated him with admiration and respect. But ever since his family neared financial ruin, those same people had severed ties without hesitation, treating him like an outcast.That was why he had no reason to doubt Salvatore’s words.Sensing Tony’s eagerness, Salvatore continued, his voice laced with amusement. “Tony, I’ve heard all about what went down between Ethan Sinclair and your mother. I can imagine the grudge you must hold against him. So tell me, are you planning on getting revenge? If so, go ahead, be bold about it. I won’t get in your way. In fact, if you need some muscle, I can lend you a few of my guys. They’re top-tier fighters—loyal, efficient, and ruthless. But of course, quality service like that doesn’t come cheap.”Tony chuckled, trying to keep his tone casual despite the fire burning in his chest. “I appreciate the offer, Mr. Salvatore. I’ll
chapter 120: Tony West returned to Los Angeles
Maya had never truly loved Tony; she had been with him only because, at the time, he was wealthier than Ethan. But now, as she reflected on his words, she had to admit—there was some truth to what he said. Any man who married her seemed to suffer terrible misfortune. When she was with Ethan, she had betrayed him, shattering the trust in their marriage. When she married Tony, the once-powerful West family had plummeted from prominence, teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. And now, after reuniting with Ethan, he had lost everything—his family, his fortune, and his prestigious position. It was almost as if she carried a curse. Tony’s voice was filled with unfiltered resentment. "Maya, answer me honestly—has Ethan really been disowned? Or is he playing another one of his games? That man is a master at faking poverty." Maya let out a sigh, knowing exactly why Tony was so insistent. He had always wanted revenge on Ethan, and now he saw an opportunity. "It’s real this time, Tony. I sw
Chapter 119: Listening in on Maya's phone conversation.
Throughout their three years of marriage, Ethan had cared for Maya unconditionally—every single day. The only exception was the brief period when they were "divorced" and he had distanced himself. But what had Maya ever done for him in return? Back when Ethan held the prestigious title of president at Walt Disney Corporation, Maya had been the perfect, obedient wife—gentle, compliant, and endlessly considerate. Yet, the moment his status crumbled, her attitude shifted entirely. Now that he had been expelled from the Sinclair family, she had reverted to her true self—the woman she had been before their marriage. Did she ever truly love me? Ethan pondered bitterly. If she didn’t, then why did she remember the songs I liked and my favorite foods? Shouldn’t a wife stand by her husband, offering comfort and encouragement when his world is falling apart? As Ethan sat in quiet turmoil, lost in his thoughts, Maya had already made her way to the bedroom. Settling onto the bed, she
Chapter 118: So this is who she truly is, huh?
Sophie had long been aware of Maya’s affair and had even shown Ethan the incriminating photos of her secret meetings with Cayden. No man in Ethan’s position could simply turn a blind eye to such betrayal. To make matters worse, Ethan had just been expelled from the Sinclair family. But Sophie wasn’t convinced. She suspected that his so-called expulsion was nothing more than a calculated ploy—to push Maya into divorcing him. Determined to win Ethan over, Sophie deliberately ridiculed him for being penniless, hoping to trigger Maya’s materialistic nature and make her feel miserable. The sooner Maya left Ethan, the sooner Sophie could take her place. Suddenly, Mimi slammed the table and shouted, "Enough! Haven’t you all had your fill of pointless arguments? Why are we still debating trivial matters like Sophie’s clothes or her love life at a time like this?" The real issue at hand was far greater—whether Ethan would still inherit the Sinclair family's fortune worth tens of billions.
Chapter 117: The enigmatic Sophie.
Seeing John's rude attitude toward Ethan, Miss Julia shot him a sharp glare and snapped, "What could possibly be so urgent? Ethan’s had a long day—let him have his tea first!" John, clearly unimpressed, rolled his eyes at her. In his mind, she was just a clueless woman who knew nothing about the business world. Ignoring her completely, he turned to Ethan and asked bluntly, "I saw the news. You resigned as president of Walt Disney Corporation. Is that true?" Miss Julia’s eyes widened in shock. "What? Ethan, you’re no longer the president?" she asked, still trying to process the information. "Is it because your grandfather wants you to move to D.C. or New York? I’ve always wanted to go to New York! When are you leaving? We’ll go with you!" Clearly, she believed Ethan’s resignation was part of some grand business strategy, an opportunity for him to climb even higher. But Ethan didn’t sugarcoat it. With a sorrowful expression, he spoke plainly: "My grandfather kicked me out
Chapter 116: Maya's attitude change drastically
Jade Villa, New YorkLaughter filled the lavish living room as Cayden erupted into hysterics, his voice echoing off the high ceilings."Hahahaha! Ethan Sinclair has stepped down! He’s resigned!" Cayden roared, practically doubled over in amusement. "He lost! I won! I crushed him!"On the massive TV screen in front of them, the press conference replayed on loop. Ethan sat there with a grim expression, publicly announcing his resignation as president of Walt Disney Corporation. He had handed the reins over to Clara Walport, his once-loyal deputy.Tony, however, was even more ecstatic than Cayden.Fueled by adrenaline, he jumped onto the couch with his shoes still on, fists pumping in the air."Unbelievable! Cayden, you did it! You just knocked Ethan Sinclair off his throne and turned him into a nobody!"Cayden smirked, basking in the moment. "Naturally."The two clapped their hands together in excitement, as if they had just witnessed a game-winning buzzer-beater in the NBA Finals.But
Chapter 115: Stepping down as the president
Frank’s words sent shockwaves through the room. Maya and Clara were utterly stunned. Ethan, too, wore a look of disbelief—but unlike them, his reaction was purely an act. "Kicked out of the family?" Maya was far more rattled by the news than even Ethan himself. "Butler Frank, you must be mistaken!" she blurted out, her voice laced with desperation. "How could Ethan possibly be kicked out of the Sinclair family?" She quickly tried to rationalize the situation. "Is Grandpa just upset that Ethan spent too much money last week? Please, tell him we won’t be reckless anymore! We’ll stop trying to save Walt Disney Corporation, I swear!" Frank let out a heavy sigh. "Miss Reynolds, I am not mistaken," he said firmly. "And no, this has nothing to do with money." His gaze darkened as he delivered the devastating truth. "Two days ago, Mr. Sinclair Sr. discovered that the DNA test report for Ethan and his father was forged. Ethan is not biologically related to the Sinclair family at a
