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
THE ANCESTRAl HEIR SYSTEM Chapter 34: Crowd at the parking lot!
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

Ethan sat in a modest room at an Express Hotel, sipping a cup of black tea from a paper cup. Across from him sat Mike—an old friend, now his ally in a new mission.Whenever Mike traveled to New York, he usually stayed at luxury hotels like The Peninsula. But this time, he didn’t bat an eye at the modest Express Hotel room Ethan had booked—a place that cost less than $50 a night.Mike understood Ethan’s background well. Despite not coming from wealth, Ethan had once trained alongside basketball legends like LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, and Dwyane Wade—an opportunity few from humble origins ever had.“It was actually pretty easy getting here by plane,” Mike said casually as he settled in.Ethan studied his old friend’s striking features—so reminiscent of a young Leonardo DiCaprio—and spoke sincerely. “Mike, I asked you to come not just to catch up, but also because I need a favor.”Mike picked up the paper cup and took a sip of the cheap black tea without complaint.“Say no more, man,

Ethan had already settled the score with Tony and Cayden.Now, there was one more person on his list—Renee.Renee hadn’t harmed Ethan directly. In fact, she hadn’t even blocked his number. He figured that if they happened to cross paths on the street, she’d probably still smile and greet him as if nothing ever happened.Over the past three years, unlike others, Renee had never mocked him for being a live-in son-in-law.And yet, Ethan still held resentment toward her.“If it weren’t for Renee Quinn,” Ethan thought, “maybe Maya wouldn’t have changed into the person she is today.”He could still vividly recall the sweet, sincere, and innocent Maya from three years ago. Back then, after marrying Ethan, she would politely ignore flirtatious advances from other guys on campus and purposely maintain a respectful distance from any man.She had once been the picture of loyalty and purity.But everything changed after Maya witnessed Renee cheating on her husband for the first time following her

Chapter 136: Custody of the child
Maya stared at Cayden in disbelief. They had never been intimate, so she knew without a doubt that the baby wasn’t his.“What are you saying?” she asked, confused. “If I don’t go through with the abortion, how can we even get married?”Cayden had previously told her he didn’t mind the pregnancy, but also claimed that his grandfather was old-fashioned and would never approve unless she terminated the baby.Now, Cayden took a deep breath, already prepared with an answer. “Maya… I need to be honest. I lied to you.”“Lied to me?” Maya’s expression froze. “About what?”Lowering his head, Cayden put on a guilty, remorseful look. “The truth is… my grandfather doesn’t even know you’re pregnant—or that you’ve been married before. I never told him.”“As for what I said about needing to have an abortion before we could get married… I made that up too.”Maya blinked, puzzled. “But why would you lie about something like that?”Cayden sighed, playing the part of the conflicted lover. “Because I was
Chapter 135: Cayden's plans
“What’s going on, Shane?”Cayden looked at his brother, confused and concerned. They were close, and he could tell something was off. Shane seemed unusually downcast, and it even looked like he had been crying.Letting out a heavy sigh, Shane said quietly, “Cayden, there’s something you need to know. Your symptoms may have eased for now, but the doctors found... side effects.”He hesitated, then continued, “They believe the virus you were infected with may have affected your fertility.”Cayden’s expression froze, the color draining from his face.To a man, losing a finger or even a limb was painful—but losing the ability to have children was a crushing blow to his pride and identity.Physically, he might still appear whole—but in this vital way, he was now broken.“You’re saying... I’ll never be able to father a child?” Cayden asked, grabbing Shane’s arm in panic.Shane tried to reassure him. “Cayden, don’t jump to conclusions. It’s just a possibility, not a certainty. The medical res
Chapter 134: Cayden's infertility
Cayden was in an exceptionally good mood today. He believed he had finally succeeded in toppling Ethan from his role as president of the Walt Disney Corporation, reducing him to nothing more than a broke nobody.Even better, he had forced Ethan to divorce Maya—the woman Cayden had been pursuing—effectively stealing her away.To Cayden, everything was going exactly according to plan.He’d never been one to lose in matters of love, and this felt like just another victory.Although Ethan had injured one of Cayden’s fingers, it wasn’t something that seriously disrupted his daily life.He had trained himself to be ambidextrous, so eating, drinking, or even playing games on his phone posed no issue.After chatting with Maya on the phone for a while, and feeling pleased with himself, Cayden finished his IV treatment and invited her to join him for a round of Call of Duty: Warzone.Cayden couldn’t move the index and middle fingers on his right hand, but luckily, he only needed his thumb to pl
Chapter 133: Castrate Tony West
If Tony and Cayden had stayed in New York, Ethan might have found it harder to deal with them. The Huxley family still held considerable influence there, and Ferragamo and Salvatore wouldn’t have had the freedom to act as boldly as they did in Los Angeles. But Tony and Cayden had foolishly come to L.A., stepping straight into Ethan’s territory. In doing so, they had sealed their own fate. It wouldn’t be Ethan’s fault if they left the city broken and ruined. He dialed Ferragamo and said calmly but coldly, “It’s time. Handle it.” Ferragamo replied, “Understood, Mr. Ethan. Do you want me to eliminate Tony West?” Given that the West family was already nearing bankruptcy and Tony had the audacity to sleep with Maya, getting rid of him wouldn’t take much effort. But Ethan didn’t want to go that far—at least not for now. He remembered Tony’s mother once tearfully begging him for mercy, and he wasn’t completely heartless. “Don’t kill him,” Ethan said flatly. “Just make sure he can never
chapter 132: Revenge was inevitable.
Ethan and Maya locked eyes for a brief moment. She was still breathtaking—whether she was angry, smiling, crying, or even standing in the pouring rain. Her beauty hadn’t faded in the slightest. But Ethan knew—there was no going back for either of them. Maya kept insisting that Ethan couldn’t let go of her past with Tony, but that wasn’t the root of the problem. Her affair with Tony had taken place before Ethan revealed his true identity. It had hurt him deeply, yes—but it wasn’t something he couldn’t have forgiven. The real breaking point had been her entanglement with Cayden. By then, Maya was already his wife—married to the president of the Walt Disney Corporation and poised to become an heir to the Sinclair family. Even if nothing happened between her and Cayden beyond holding hands, that alone was inappropriate and disrespectful. And what hurt even more was how her attitude changed when Ethan lost everything. She treated him differently, coldly, as though his worth had disap
