THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 48
In the early morning quiet, Ethan's phone rang loudly.He reached for it partly awake but still sleepy and saw Lisa's name flashing on the screen.She spoke panickedly when he answered."Ethan, look at the news. Right now.”"What" Lisa, it's—" As Ethan rubbed his eyes, he tried to wake up from his sleepiness.“You need to look. I’m serious,” Lisa cut him off, her voice trembling. “I don’t know who’s behind this, but it’s bad. It’s ruining everything.”Confused, Ethan sat up in bed, his heart beginning to race. “What are you talking about?”“Just check your phone,” she urged, “and hurry. This could destroy our families’ reputations.”Ethan’s fingers fumbled as he unlocked his phone, the screen lighting up with a flurry of notifications. His eyes widened as he read the headlines:"Ethan Elliot Accused of Revenge Porn: Photos of Ex-Girlfriend Leak Online""Shocking Scandal: Ethan Elliot Allegedly Leaks Explicit Photos of Melissa In Vicious Revenge Plot"The words barely registered as

There was a lot of anxiety in the media center.Cameras were flashing like lightning as reporters pressed closer to Ethan and Melissa, waiting for the next shocking turn of events.It was Melissa who played the victim, and the cameras loved the way her voice was full of fake innocence.Still, Ethan wasn't done.Not even close.With a sharp breath, he stepped forward to stop the press from asking him questions over and over again."Hold on, everyone.I need to say something."When the noise stopped, everyone looked at him.Ethan stood tall, and his voice was strong and steady.Melissa wasn't ready for him to speak up so quickly, but he fixed his eyes on her.The reporters leaned in close, waiting for him to say something next.When Ethan spoke, his voice was cool but determined."I'm not going to let her get away with this," he said."Let me start by making something clear. I never touched her at all during our whole relationship. I was too polite to even hold her hand. All this crap ab

A stunned gasp rippled through the room. Claire’s eyes widened, her mouth parting as if to deny it, but no words came out.Lisa didn’t stop there. “Claire has been behind the entire scandal, collaborating with Melissa to frame Ethan. They both wanted to destroy his reputation. Claire, out of jealousy and obsession, thought she could make Ethan vulnerable and drive him into her arms by ruining his life.”The reporters exploded into a frenzy of questions. “What? Claire? Are you serious?Why would Claire do this?How could she be involved?”Ethan stood frozen, shock crashing over him like a wave. Claire—his once-sympathetic friend—was the one behind it all? He turned to look at her, his face a mask of disbelief.Claire finally found her voice, though it was a mere whisper, almost defeated. “I… I didn’t mean for it to go this far.”Ethan narrowed his eyes. “Then what did you mean, Claire? What was your plan? To watch me suffer? To destroy everything I have?”Claire’s gaze dropped to

Claire’s face crumpled under the weight of her confession.Her lips trembled, her hands clasped tightly in front of her as if they could shield her from the judgment closing in around her.Her voice was shaky, her words spilling out in uneven gasps.“I… I liked Ethan,” she began, her eyes darting nervously between the others in the room.She couldn’t bear to meet Ethan’s piercing gaze.“I’ve liked him for a long time. But I thought we could never work out. He was poor, always working oddjobs just to get by. My family…”Her voice hitched, and she swallowed hard.“…my family would never accept it. They’d call him beneath us.”The room fell silent, the only sound Claire’s shallow breathing as her words lingered in the air like a damning echo.Ethan stood frozen, his jaw clenched, his hands fisted at his sides.Beside him, Sanaya crossed her arms, her expression a mixture of shock and mounting fury.“But then,” Claire continued, her voice breaking into a pitiful whimper.“I found out it
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 52
The cameras flashed like a relentless storm as Claire sobbed in front of the reporters.Her mascara ran in streaks down her cheeks, her trembling hands clutching a tissue she barely used."I made a terrible mistake," she stammered, her voice breaking."I let my emotions get the better of me. I deeply regret my actions, and I want to sincerely apologize to Ethan and Lisa."The reporters murmured amongst themselves, some scribbling furiously in their notepads, others zooming in with their cameras for the perfect shot of her tearful confession.Ethan watched her with a stony expression, his hands shoved into his pockets.He could see through her theatrics—the exaggerated sobbing, the dramatic pauses.It was all a performance. But he decided to end the spectacle.“It’s okay,” Ethan said, stepping forward. His voice was calm but firm, carrying over the crowd.“I don’t want this to go any further. Claire has apologized, and that’s enough for me.”The murmuring grew louder as he turned to fa
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 53
Ethan’s hunch was spot on.Just a few minutes after the eerie footsteps, four men emerged from the shadows, their faces partially obscured by the dim light.They spread out, encircling Ethan and Lisa like predators closing in on their prey.One of them stepped forward, a cruel smile stretching across his scarred face as he brandished a gun.“Alright, kids,” the thug sneered, his voice dripping with malice.“Hand over everything—wallets, jewelry, phones, all of it. Or else...” He trailed off, letting the glint of the weapon speak for itself.Lisa clutched Ethan’s arm tightly, her breathing shallow and panicked.Her nails dug into his sleeve as if she could anchor herself to his calm presence.Another thug, his grin even filthier, chuckled darkly.“Pretty girl you got there,” he said, his eyes lingering on Lisa in a way that made her stomach churn. “Seems like a waste to let her go without a taste. What do you say, boys?”The other thugs laughed, their crude remarks making Lisa tremble.
THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 54
Just as Ethan thought the ordeal was over, a sudden thud echoed in the silence.The leader of the thugs, the one wielding the gun, collapsed forward, landing face-first on the cobblestones with an audible groan.Ethan blinked in surprise, his adrenaline still pumping. Behind the fallen man stood Mike—the Cobra’s son who had insulted Ethan at the party—holding a baseball bat high in the air.His face was flushed, and he looked half-determined, half-terrified.“What the hell?” Ethan muttered, staring at the unexpected arrival.Mike, catching his breath, lowered the bat and shrugged.“He was too busy running his mouth to notice me. Thought I’d shut him up.”The remaining thugs hesitated, their confidence wavering now that their leader was down.Seeing the opening, Ethan and Mike exchanged a quick glance, a wordless agreement passing between them.Ethan smirked.“Ready to get your hands dirty, Cobra Jr.?”Mike grinned back. “I’ve been waiting to knock some sense into someone all day.”The

The grand ballroom of the Ritz-Carlton sparkled with crystal chandeliers and flowing champagne.Ethan adjusted his midnight blue tie for the hundredth time, his fingers trembling slightly despite his composed exterior.This is it, he thought, the moment our love becomes official in front of everyone who matters."Son, come meet Senator Richards," his father called, beaming with pride.The older man's hand settled warmly on Ethan's shoulder as he guided him through the crowd."This is my boy, the one I've been telling you about.""Pleasure to meet you, sir," Ethan said, shaking hands firmly while scanning the entrance for any sign of Lisa.She was due to make her bridal entrance soon, and his heart raced at the thought."Where's that stunning fiancée of yours?" a socialite in pearls asked, champagne glass swaying dangerously in her manicured grip."She'll be making her entrance shortly," Ethan replied, masking his anxiety with a practiced smile.Everything has to be perfect tonight.

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
