THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 137
The dim light inside the heavily guarded hangar cast long shadows across the expanse of the space, revealing a sleek private jet fueled and ready for takeoff.Ethan led his team through the maze of crates and machinery, his pistol drawn, every nerve on edge.“Stay sharp,” he muttered to Lisa, who followed closely behind.“This is it.”Guards patrolled the perimeter of the jet, but their movements were rushed, distracted.The chaos outside the airfield was working in Ethan’s favor.Lisa whispered, “Do you think the leader’s already inside?”“We’re about to find out,” Ethan replied grimly.He signaled for his team to fan out and create a perimeter.As they crept closer, the hangar doors groaned, and a figure emerged from the shadows near the jet’s stairs.Ethan’s breath caught as the man stepped into the light—a tall, sharp-featured figure with an air of calculated control.“Elias Kane,” Ethan muttered under his breath.Lisa’s eyes widened. “That’s him? The Black Hawk leader?”Ethan nodd
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 138
The Lisa by his side began to glitch, her image flickering as the truth was revealed—she was a projection, a clever hologram.Ethan’s mind raced, his fury directed at Kane.“What do you want?”Kane’s expression darkened.“You have a choice, Ethan. You can stop me from escaping and end this little dance of ours. Or you can save her.”The live feed shifted to show a timer on the wall next to Lisa: 00:15:00 and counting down.Kane gestured to the screen.“When that timer hits zero, the room she’s in will be flooded with a gas that’s... less than forgiving. But hey, you’re a resourceful man. Maybe you’ll figure it out in time. Or maybe you won’t.”Ethan’s chest tightened.“You’re a coward,” he spat.“No, Ethan,” Kane said, his tone chillingly calm.“I’m a survivor. And tonight, you’ll prove what you really care about: your precious family legacy or the woman who’s been your anchor.”Ethan’s mind raced as he weighed his options.His team was positioned around the hangar, ready to take out
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 139
The dawn broke over the smoldering remains of the airfield, the first rays of sunlight casting a golden hue over the blackened wreckage.Ethan stood at the edge of the tarmac, his expression grim as he watched his guards secure the area.The fight was over, but a gnawing sense of unease lingered in the pit of his stomach.Lisa approached quietly, her face pale but resolute.“Kane’s dead,” she said softly, as if saying it aloud would make it more real.“Does that mean it’s over?”Ethan shook his head, his gaze never leaving the horizon.“Not completely. Kane was the head of the snake, but syndicates like The Black Hawk don’t just disappear overnight. There’ll be others trying to step into his shoes.”Lisa crossed her arms, shivering slightly in the cool morning air.“Then what do we do now?”“We rebuild,” Ethan replied, his voice firm.“The Elliot family needs to be stronger than ever. If there are remnants of The Black Hawk left, they’ll come for us eventually. We need to be ready.”L

The study was eerily quiet except for the faint hum of Ethan’s laptop as he replayed the video.The screen displayed a masked figure sitting in a dimly lit room, their voice distorted but deliberate.“Ethan Elliot,” the figure began, their tone calm yet menacing.“You thought killing Kane would end this. But The Black Hawk doesn’t die—it evolves.”Lisa sat beside Ethan, her hand resting on his arm.Her knuckles were white, and her face was pale as she watched the video.“Who is this?” she asked softly.Ethan’s jaw tightened.“Someone trying to pick up where Kane left off. Someone who wants us to know they’re coming.”The figure leaned closer to the camera, their mask gleaming under the faint light.“Kane was only a part of the plan. His vision was... limited. But under my leadership, The Black Hawk will soar higher than ever. And you, Ethan, will watch everything you love fall apart.”The figure paused, then gestured to something off-camera.The video cut to a series of images—bluepri
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 141
Ethan sat in his study, the lights dimmed to match his somber mood.The laptop screen cast a faint glow on his face as he replayed the video attached to the cryptic email.Every word, every gesture, every flicker of light in the background was scrutinized, but the masked figure’s mocking voice dominated his thoughts.“Your father rests peacefully now, but what about tomorrow?”The figure’s distorted tone carried an unsettling mixture of menace and amusement.Ethan’s fists clenched, his jaw tightening as he leaned closer to the screen.Lisa entered quietly, her expression as tense as his.“Have you found anything new?”“Nothing yet,” Ethan replied without looking at her.“I’ve replayed this video a dozen times, and every detail feels like a trap.”Lisa moved beside him, her hand resting lightly on his shoulder.“We’ll figure it out. But you can’t do this alone, Ethan. Let me help.”He finally turned to her, his eyes filled with both gratitude and frustration.“You’re already helping by
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 141
Ethan clicked play on the video again. The masked figure leaned back, their tone becoming almost conversational.“You have 48 hours, Ethan. Forty-eight hours until your legacy crumbles, until the name Elliot is nothing more than ashes in history’s dustbin. Tick-tock.”As the figure’s hand moved, the screen revealed a countdown timer: 47:59:59 and ticking.Ethan paused the video, staring at the timer as though it were a physical threat.Lisa whispered, “Forty-eight hours. That’s all we have.”Ethan’s thoughts churned. They’re giving us time, but why? Is it arrogance? A trap? Or do they want something from me?He turned to Lisa, his expression grim. “This isn’t just about destruction. They’re setting the stage for something bigger.”Lisa nodded, her voice steady despite the fear in her eyes. “Then we have to use every second to figure out what it is.”Ethan grabbed his phone, calling Harris. “Get everyone in the war room. Now. This is a priority-one threat.”“Understood, sir,” Harris re
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 142
The team quickly split into groups.Victoria and Harris headed to Elliot Enterprises’ headquarters to fortify its defenses.Ethan stayed behind to coordinate operations and analyze intel as it came in.Lisa and Mike drove to the docks, the air between them heavy with tension.“Are you always this determined to throw yourself into danger?” Mike asked, half-joking as he navigated the city streets.Lisa smirked.“You’ve worked with Ethan long enough to know the answer to that.”Mike chuckled.“Fair point. Just make sure you keep your head down when things get dicey.”“I will,” Lisa said, her tone firm.“I need to see this through.”The docks were a hive of activity, even at night.Cranes loomed over rows of stacked containers, their mechanical arms unloading cargo onto waiting trucks. Workers moved about, their faces shadowed under dim floodlights.Mike parked the car a safe distance away, pulling out a small drone.“I’ll use this to scout the area. If anything looks suspicious, we’ll kn
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 143
Lisa’s breath came in shallow gasps as she darted between rows of containers, the manifest clutched tightly in her trembling hands.The sound of boots pounding against the concrete behind her grew louder, her pursuers closing the gap.She pressed herself against the cold metal of a container, heart hammering in her chest.Stay calm. Think. They haven’t caught you yet.“Split up,” a gruff voice ordered, echoing through the narrow corridors of cargo. “She couldn’t have gone far.”Lisa gritted her teeth, her mind racing.Ethan, hurry. I can’t do this alone.She fumbled for her phone, her fingers shaking as she hit the speed dial for Ethan.“Lisa?” Ethan’s voice crackled over the line.“They found me,” she whispered urgently. “I’m cornered at the docks. There are too many of them, Ethan. They’re armed.”“Hold on,” Ethan said, his voice steady but filled with determination. “I’m on my way. Stay hidden. I’ll get you out of this.”The sound of engines roared through the air as Ethan’s convoy

CHAPTER 277
Ethan stood on the edge of a glass-and-steel monolith, looking down at the city that had both made him and tried to break him.Dubai stretched out in all directions—a kingdom of glass towers, neon reflections, and wealth built on power and silence.Once, he had owned this world.Once, he had believed he could shape it.But now, as he stood above it all, the question that had haunted him since the beginning refused to be ignored.Did I win? Or did I just survive?He exhaled, the wind pulling at his coat, sending strands of his hair whipping against his forehead.The streets below were alive—cars honking, people moving, deals being made in hushed conversations, just another night in the empire of the rich.None of them knew what had happened.None of them knew how close this city had come to burning with The Dominion.They only knew the headlines:“Ethan Elliot Destroys Global Crime Syndicate.”“The Fall of The Dominion—A Power Shift in the Underworld.”“The Most Dangerous Man in the Wo
CHAPTER 276
Ethan stood at the edge of the smoldering ruin, his body aching, his mind drowning in the weight of what had been done.Dubai’s skyline had changed overnight—one less tower standing.One less monster breathing.He should have felt something.Relief. Satisfaction. A sense of victory.But there was nothing.Only smoke, ash, and silence.The Dominion was gone.Their networks dismantled, their leaders dead, scattered, or in hiding.The underworld had changed in a single night, shifting like tectonic plates beneath his feet.And the world had noticed.The media had already begun spinning their stories.“Elliot Enterprises CEO Linked to Mysterious Power Shift.”“The Fall of The Dominion—A New Global Order?”“Ethan Elliot: The Man Who Killed the Shadows.”Some feared him.Some worshipped him.Some wanted him dead.None of it mattered.Because Ethan was done.Lisa was gone.Malik was gone.His empire was still standing, but it wasn’t his anymore.He had spent years clawing his way to the top,
CHAPTER 275
3:00… 2:59… 2:58…The countdown blazed across the massive penthouse screen.Ethan’s fingers tightened around Emery’s collar."Where is it?" His voice was a low growl, lethal.Emery coughed, blood staining his teeth. "Wouldn’t you like to know?"2:30… 2:29…Ethan yanked him forward, shaking him violently. "Tell me where the bomb is, or I swear I will—""Kill me?" Emery smirked, weak but smug. "That’s what I want, Ethan."Ethan’s breath came sharp. Every fiber of his body screamed to end him.But the clock was running out.Lisa’s voice echoed in his head."Don’t become them…"2:00… 1:59…Ethan dropped Emery.He turned on his heel, ignoring the bastard’s laughter as he scanned the penthouse for any sign of the bomb.Then—he saw it.A black case embedded inside the structural framework of the tower, wires running across the walls like a web of death.The fail-safe was wired into the building itself.Emery had planned this well.There was no stopping the countdown.1:30… 1:29…He had to ge
CHAPTER 274
Ethan moved first.No hesitation. No mercy.His fist slammed into Emery’s face, sending him crashing into a marble pillar.The impact cracked the surface, shards of stone crumbling to the floor.But Emery didn’t collapse.He grinned through the blood."That’s it, Ethan," he rasped, wiping his split lip. "No more business deals. No more negotiations. Just war."Ethan didn’t answer.Words were pointless now.Lisa was gone.The Dominion had burned his empire.Now, he would burn them.Emery launched himself forward, faster than Ethan expected.A knife flashed in his hand.Ethan twisted—**barely dodging—**but the blade still grazed his ribs.Pain flared, hot and sharp, but he didn’t slow.Instead, he caught Emery’s wrist and twisted.CRACK.The knife clattered to the floor.Emery hissed, his arm hanging limp, dislocated.But he still laughed."Come on," he taunted. "You’re holding back."Ethan’s rage snapped.He drove his knee into Emery’s gut, knocking the air from his lungs.As Emery dou
CHAPTER 273
The Burj Dominion towered over Dubai, a fortress of wealth, power, and secrecy. A structure built on the backs of the world’s most corrupt elites, designed to withstand anything.Anything but him.Ethan was coming.Inside the penthouse, Emery Calloway stood before the massive floor-to-ceiling windows, the city sprawling beneath him in a tapestry of golden lights. He swirled the whiskey in his glass, watching the skyline with an air of amusement.Behind him, a war was brewing.Guards flooded the lower floors, rifles loaded, body armor strapped on, comms crackling with rapid orders. The entire tower was on lockdown.But Emery wasn’t afraid.He had been waiting for this."Sir, we should evacuate," one of his lieutenants suggested, nervous.Emery smirked, tilting his glass to his lips. "No."The man hesitated. "With all due respect, sir, Elliot is—""Exactly where I want him." Emery placed the glass down with a deliberate clink. "Let him in."The lieutenant paled. "Sir?"Emery turned, his
CHAPTER 272
Ethan didn’t remember getting into the car.Didn’t remember the high-speed chase through the city, weaving through traffic, running red lights, ignoring the screaming sirens behind him.All he saw was her face on that screen.Lisa.Still alive.Barely breathing, but still there.And if he was even a second too late?He wouldn’t let himself think about it.Mike’s voice crackled over the comm. “Ethan, you need to slow down. We don’t know what we’re walking into.”Ethan’s grip tightened on the wheel. “I don’t care.”Because this wasn’t about strategy anymore.This was personal.The warehouse loomed ahead, an abandoned Dominion facility on the city outskirts.Ethan didn’t wait. Didn’t plan.He crashed the car straight through the front gate, metal screeching as he tore past the defenses.Gunfire erupted. Bullets slammed into the car, glass shattering.Ethan was already out, already moving.His gun spat fire as he carved a path through The Dominion soldiers.Each shot was precise. Lethal.
CHAPTER 271
Ethan had sensed the setup the moment the lights cut out.Too quiet. Too clean.Then—the explosion.The front door blasted inward, a shockwave ripping through the safe house. Glass shattered, furniture splintered, smoke curled through the air like a phantom’s breath.Ethan was already moving before the dust settled.They were here.The Dominion’s kill squad—The Reapers.Silent. Precise. Deadly.Dark figures poured in through the smoke, rifles raised, laser sights flickering like red stars in the haze.Ethan ducked, rolled, and fired.A single headshot took out the first.A knife to the throat silenced the second.Malik was beside him, a shadow of destruction. A brutal strike to the gut, a bullet between the ribs—two Reapers fell instantly.But they kept coming.Ethan’s mind worked ten steps ahead.They didn’t just want him dead.They wanted him contained.Cut off. Cornered. Executed.Too bad.They had underestimated the wrong man.Ethan moved like a ghost through the gunfire, slipping
CHAPTER 270
The world had changed.Aldrich Vaughn was dead. Executed in his own home. His dirty secrets broadcasted to the world, his name dragged through the mud.It wasn’t a quiet, clean hit. Ethan had made sure of that.Now?Everyone was watching.For the first time, The Dominion was exposed.They weren’t untouchable anymore.And that terrified them.Inside an underground Dominion control center, Emery Calloway stood motionless.Multiple screens flickered, each one showing the same headline."Former U.S. Senator Aldrich Vaughn found executed—Massive corruption scandal unraveling.""Who is behind the murder of one of America’s most powerful political figures?""The world’s elite in chaos—How deep does this conspiracy go?"Emery’s fingers tightened into a fist.Vaughn was supposed to be protected. Untouchable. A symbol of The Dominion’s absolute power.Yet Ethan had wiped him from existence in a single night.“We underestimated him.”The voice came from one of his lieutenants, a man in a pristin
CHAPTER 269
Ethan sat in the dimly lit warehouse, his fingers tapping rhythmically against the cold steel of his gun. The room smelled of dust and rusted metal, but the air was thick with something else—vengeance.Tonight, the war truly began.Across the room, Malik slid a tablet across the table. “He’s at his estate. Surrounded by security. Cameras, guards, high-tech defenses. A fortress.”Ethan barely glanced at the screen. “It won’t be enough.”Mike leaned forward. “You sure about this? If we start picking them off, The Dominion will come at us harder than ever.”Ethan’s gaze was sharp, unwavering. “Good. Let them.”Aldrich Vaughn was a snake in a suit—a corrupt politician who had sold out his own people for power.More importantly?He was one of the architects of Lisa’s abduction.And tonight? He would pay.Ethan’s plan wasn’t just about killing him.That would be too easy.No, Ethan would destroy his empire first. Strip him of his power, his money, his influence.Then, and only then, would h
