THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 150
Harris followed the man into the kitchen, reporting back.“He’s not doing anything unusual. Looks like he’s just grabbing a drink and heading back.”Ethan frowned.They’re being careful. Too careful.As the gala continued, more suspicious figures emerged, but each time, their actions seemed innocuous.It was as if they knew they were being watched.Lisa returned to Ethan’s side, her expression frustrated.“They’re here—I know it. But they’re staying just out of reach.”“They’re testing us,” Ethan replied. “They want to see how we react before they make their move.”As Ethan scanned the room, a waiter approached him, holding a tray of hors d'oeuvres.The man’s face was partially obscured by the tray, but Ethan caught a glint of recognition in his eyes.“Sir,” the waiter said, his voice low, “a note for you.”Ethan’s hand instinctively went to the pistol concealed beneath his jacket as he took the folded piece of paper.The waiter moved away swiftly, disappearing into the crowd.Lisa le

The ballroom erupted into chaos as masked operatives flooded the room, their weapons gleaming under the faint emergency lights.Guests were forced to the ground, their hands raised in surrender as shouts echoed through the space.One of the operatives stepped forward, their voice amplified by a distortion device.“Ethan Elliot,” they announced, “if you value the lives of these people, surrender now!”Lisa gripped Ethan’s arm.“What are you going to do?”Ethan’s mind raced.This is coordinated. They knew every detail of the layout, the security, even the backup systems. But they don’t know I’ve studied this place inside out.“Stay low and trust me,” Ethan said.Ethan ducked into the shadows, his movements swift and silent.Through the earpiece, Harris’s voice came through.“We’re locked out of the main entrances. They’ve barricaded them from the outside.”“Use the service corridors,” Ethan replied.“Secure the exits and sweep for explosives. I’ll handle the hostages.”Harris hesitated

The gleaming facade of Elliot Enterprises stood stark against the night sky, its towering glass structure an imposing symbol of power and wealth.Tonight, however, it was under siege.As Ethan’s convoy screeched to a halt outside the main entrance, he could see the flickering of emergency lights in the upper floors, signaling the intrusion.Harris jumped out of the vehicle, his weapon drawn.“Top floors have been breached, sir. Surveillance shows Black Hawk operatives locking down the executive suites.”“They’re going after the servers,” Ethan said, his voice tight with urgency.“If they access the financial archives, they could cripple us.”Lisa, seated beside him, gripped his arm.“Be careful, Ethan.”Ethan met her gaze, his resolve unwavering.“I will. Stay here with Harper and coordinate the feeds. I need eyes on everything.”Lisa nodded reluctantly.“Just… come back in one piece.”Ethan and his team stormed into the building, their movements precise and calculated. Harper’s voice

The hacker’s smirk widened.“What are you gonna do? Type me to death?”Without a word, Ethan grabbed a nearby keyboard and began typing rapidly, his movements swift and deliberate.The hacker’s confident expression faltered.“Wait—what are you doing?”“Locking you out,” Ethan said, his tone calm but fierce.The hacker spun back to his workstation, his fingers flying across the keys in an attempt to counter Ethan’s commands.“You’re joking, right? You can’t just waltz in here and undo hours of work.”“Watch me,” Ethan replied.The room filled with the sound of frantic keystrokes as the two battled for control of the system.Ethan’s deep understanding of the company’s architecture gave him an edge, allowing him to anticipate the hacker’s moves.“You built this system,” the hacker said, his voice tinged with frustration.“I’ll give you that. But you’re still in over your head.”“And you’re too arrogant to realize when you’ve lost,” Ethan shot back, activating a series of firewalls to blo

The sleek black car pulled up to the gates of a sprawling estate on the outskirts of the city, its iron bars looming like the jaws of a predator.Ethan stepped out, his presence radiating controlled fury.The estate belonged to Lawrence Decker, a former Elliot Enterprises board member who had been unceremoniously ousted years ago for embezzlement and corruption.“Decker,” Ethan muttered under his breath, his jaw tight.I should’ve buried him when I had the chance.Harris and two guards flanked him, their expressions mirroring his resolve.Lisa’s voice crackled through his earpiece.“Ethan, be careful. Decker’s not the type to play fair.”Ethan smirked grimly.“Fair doesn’t matter anymore.”The guards at the gate hesitated when Ethan approached, recognizing him immediately.“Let me in,” Ethan ordered, his voice sharp.“Or I’ll break this door down myself.”The guards exchanged nervous glances before stepping aside, opening the gates without protest.Inside the opulent mansion, Decker l

Ethan sat in the mansion’s secure command room, the faint hum of monitors filling the air.His team was scattered around the room, each member focused on their respective tasks.Harris leaned over a digital map of the world, while Harper sifted through encrypted communications on her laptop.Ethan tapped his fingers on the desk, his expression unyielding.The data’s out there, and if this syndicate uses it, everything I’ve built will collapse.Lisa entered, a tablet in hand, her face a mixture of determination and exhaustion.“We’ve got a lead,” she said, placing the tablet on the desk.“What is it?” Ethan asked, sitting up.Lisa pointed to the screen.“There’s a pattern in the transactions tied to the stolen data. They all lead back to a single funding source—a tech billionaire named Gregory Holt.”Ethan frowned. “Holt? The media darling with a global AI empire?”Lisa nodded.“The same. On paper, his businesses are squeaky clean, but his offshore accounts tell a different story. He’s
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 156
As the call continued, resistance emerged from certain factions.“Holt has been a generous contributor to global initiatives,” one man argued.“Turning against him could cost us more than it’s worth.”Ethan’s voice rose, his frustration evident.“And letting him continue will cost us everything. This isn’t just about one man—it’s about a network of criminals who are using his resources to gain global dominance. Are you willing to stand by and watch that happen?”Silence followed, but it was clear not everyone was convinced.Lisa leaned over to Ethan, whispering, “We’re not going to get unanimous support. Focus on the ones who are willing to help.”Ethan nodded, addressing the group.“To those of you who stand with me, thank you. For the rest—when this syndicate comes for you, remember who warned you first.”The call ended, and Ethan leaned back in his chair, his mind heavy.Holt’s influence is already causing fractures among potential allies.This is exactly what he wants.Harper’s vo

Ethan crouched behind a cluster of sculpted hedges, staring up at the towering structure before him.Gregory Holt’s tech fortress wasn’t just a building—it was a fortress of innovation and intimidation.Its sleek, glass-and-steel design gleamed under the night sky, illuminated by an array of cutting-edge defenses.Drones hovered in coordinated patterns around the perimeter, scanning every inch of the estate.Automated turrets moved methodically, their red targeting lasers slicing through the darkness.Security cameras dotted the walls, synchronized to a central AI system that could detect even the slightest irregularity.Harper’s voice crackled in Ethan’s earpiece.“You’re approaching the main perimeter. Drones are synced to a five-second gap between sweeps. You’ll have to time your movements perfectly.”Ethan smirked.“I’ve handled worse.”The interior of the fortress was as sleek as its exterior, a maze of white walls and glowing blue accents.The air hummed with the energy of advan

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,

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
