THE BEGGER BOY IS RICH HEIR CHAPTER 49
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 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

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.

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.

Lisa entered the grand hall, her heels clicking against the marble floorAll eyes turned to her, conversations dying mid-sentence as she approached her aunt, who stood near the buffet table."I've heard enough of your lies about Ethan," Lisa said, her voice steady despite her racing heart.Her aunt's eyes narrowed."Lies? I'm only telling everyone the truth about that good-for-nothing—""Stop right there." Lisa held up her phone."Since you're so interested in the truth, let's hear it directly from the source."With one tap, Claire's voice filled the hall through the speakers:"I need to make a public confession."The trembling voice continued, The allegations against Ethan were false. I... I leaked those photos of Melissa myself."A collective gasp echoed through the room.Lisa watched satisfaction bloom in her chest as her aunt's face turned ashen."What... what is this?" her aunt stammered, gripping her champagne glass tighter."This, dear aunt, is the truth you couldn't be bothered

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 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 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 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 abandoned airfield loomed in the distance, its crumbling hangars and runways bathed in the faint glow of floodlights.Ethan crouched behind a ridge with his strike team, surveying the facility through binoculars.Armed guards patrolled the perimeter, while surveillance drones buzzed through the air, scanning for intruders.“They’ve fortified this place,” Lisa said softly, crouched beside him.She had insisted on joining despite Ethan’s protests, her resolve unshaken.“They’re protecting something big,” Ethan replied, lowering the binoculars.“This isn’t just a stronghold—it’s their nerve center.”One of his team members, a seasoned operative named Harris, leaned in.“What’s the play, sir? A frontal assault would be suicide with those drones.”Ethan smirked.“We’re not walking in through the front door. We use the chaos to our advantage. Harris, take a team to the east perimeter. Create a diversion—smoke grenades, flashbangs, the works. Keep their attention focused there.”Harris n

The cemetery erupted in chaos as another shot cracked through the night, striking a gravestone inches from Ethan’s head.He and Lisa ducked behind another marker, their breaths quick and shallow.The distant glint of the sniper’s scope flickered from the treeline.“They’re not letting up,” Lisa whispered, her voice trembling.“They’re trying to keep us pinned,” Ethan said, gripping his pistol tightly.“We need to hold until backup arrives.”Another bullet whizzed past, chipping away at the stone shielding them.Lisa flinched, her knuckles white as she clutched the edge of the gravestone.“What do we do?” she asked, panic creeping into her tone.Ethan peeked out briefly before ducking back.“We fight.”He fired two shots in the sniper’s direction, the sound echoing across the graveyard.“Ethan,” Lisa said urgently, pointing toward a shadowy figure moving between the gravestones.“There’s more than one of them!”Ethan’s jaw tightened.“Figures. They wouldn’t send a single shooter for so

The moon hung low in the sky, casting an eerie silver glow over the Elliot family cemetery.Rows of ornate gravestones stood like silent sentinels, their inscriptions weathered by time.Ethan and Lisa stepped cautiously through the thick mist that clung to the ground, the crunch of gravel beneath their feet the only sound breaking the silence.“This place is unsettling,” Lisa muttered, hugging her coat tighter around her.“Are you sure this is where we’ll find answers?”Ethan nodded, his expression grim.“If the note is right, the answers have been here all along.”They reached the largest monument in the cemetery, a towering granite tombstone engraved with the name Edward Elliot—Ethan’s grandfather.The words “A Legacy Built to Last” were inscribed beneath the name.“Here we are,” Ethan said, his voice low.He knelt in front of the grave, running his fingers over the edges of the base.“There has to be something hidden. He wouldn’t leave a clue like that for no reason.”Lisa crouched

The ballroom was a cacophony of panicked screams and echoing footsteps.Guests in elegant attire jostled each other in their desperate bid to escape, the once-grand event reduced to utter chaos.Ethan’s sharp eyes scanned the frenzied crowd, locking onto a masked figure slipping through the throng with calculated movements.“That’s them,” he muttered, signaling his guards.“Don’t lose sight of the one in the black mask.”Lisa, at his side, tightened her grip on his arm.“Be careful, Ethan. Whoever they are, they’re dangerous.”“I don’t have a choice,” Ethan replied, breaking into a sprint.“Stay close and keep your head down.”The masked figure glanced over their shoulder, their movements quickening as they realized they were being followed.Ethan’s guards fanned out, attempting to cut off their escape route.Ethan weaved through the panicked crowd, pushing past guests and dodging overturned chairs.The masked figure darted toward a side door, slipping through with ease.“Block the ex

The haunting melody of the waltz filled the grand ballroom, and Ethan guided Lisa through the swirling mass of masked dancers.They moved with calculated precision, pretending to lose themselves in the rhythm while their eyes scanned the crowd.Lisa leaned in, her voice barely audible over the music.“The man with the hawk lapel pin is heading toward the stage.”Ethan glanced subtly in the direction she indicated.The man slipped through the throng of guests, his movements deliberate, until he reached the gala host standing near the microphone.“He’s making his move,” Ethan murmured.“Stay close.”As they danced closer to the stage, Ethan’s sharp eyes caught the man whispering to the host.The host nodded, glancing around nervously before stepping aside.“I’m going to intercept him,” Ethan said.Lisa tightened her grip on his hand.“Be careful.”Ethan released her and navigated through the crowd, his movements smooth yet purposeful.As the man turned to leave the stage area, Ethan ste
