THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Hired For The Plan
Vivienne’s house was as grand and extravagant as ever. A massive chandelier hung from the ceiling, which threw a warm glow over the shiny marble floors. The air smelled of expensive wine and a faint hint of fresh lilies. It was Vivienne’s personal touch, since she loved lilies. But tonight, no one was admiring her expensive decor. Everyone sat around a mahogany table with flutes of wine in their hands. And their faces were tense.Lucian, Soren, Evander, Alistair, and of course, Vivienne herself—the inner circle of the Averne family. And the only thing on their minds now was Roman. He had just walked out on them earlier that day, making it clear as hell that he wasn’t backing down now or ever. Now, they had no choice but to figure out how to stop him for good.Lucian leaned forward. His fingers were laced together and his expression was unreadable. “We need to move fast.”Soren, who was swirling the wine in his glass, scoffed. “Move fast? With what, exactly? We’ve tried everything to
THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Sealed Deal
The evening's orange sun spilled through the sheer curtains of Vivienne’s lavish apartment the next day. It cast a beautiful golden glow across the pristine white furniture. Vivienne was draped in a silky black robe. She poured herself a glass of red wine, despite having too much to drink already. She was never one to follow conventional rules. She leaned against the marble counter of her open kitchen, glancing at the clock.Kristan should be here any moment.And, as if on cue, there was a knock on her door. A slow smirk curled across Vivienne’s lips as she walked gracefully to the door. She opened it, and saw the man she had been expecting.He stood there, tall and ridiculously good-looking. His muscular frame filled the doorway with ease. He had dark, piercing eyes and a smirk that could get a woman into trouble. And Vivienne had already been in trouble with him many times before.Kristan didn’t say anything at first. Instead, he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her wais
THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Sign The Divorce Papers
“Why do you keep working here when you’re the chairman of the biggest conglomerate in the whole country? This work is beneath you. It breaks my heart to see you in this condition, young master.” “Don’t call me that. I told you to stop this. I’m not the one you’re looking for.” Roman shook his head as the blonde woman wearing designer brands from head to toe approached him again.This was the fifth time this month that she was coming here even after he told her to leave him alone. He smacked his gloves together and dust floated around him. He stood and stretched, hearing his joints pop after another grueling day at the construction site. His job was to clear debris from the area so the engineers could be free to continue work without obstruction. He was basically their janitor.“I hired a private investigator to find out the truth. You just don’t remember your true identity because of the accident you were involved in. It took us three years to find you. Please come home and reclaim
THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Supreme Black Card
“Wait! You haven’t collected your check yet.” Haylee spoke, but he kept walking.“I don’t need it.”As Haylee watched him walk away, she felt a strange sensation in her chest. It felt like she was losing something valuable, but she refused to back down. She believed that she was doing what was best for her, so there was no need to feel guilty.Roman walked away and put his hands in his pocket. That was when he felt the black card and the ring that were given to him by the blonde woman he spoke to earlier. He put the ring on his finger and decided to visit the bank like she said. Even if the woman was lying about his true identity, he wanted to confirm for himself. After all, he no longer had anything to lose.He had just gotten to the bank after several minutes and was about to climb up the stairs when he heard a familiar voice behind him.“What is a beggar like you doing in such a prestigious place?”He turned and saw his mother-in-law, Fiona, standing beside his sister-in-law, Mar
THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Sending The Nuisance Away
“Wow! You’ve migrated from being a petty thief to a full time criminal.” Fiona laughed as she got up from the floor, completely forgetting about her pretense of being in pain.“Do you really think that you can deceive us? Other people may be fooled, but we’ve known you for years since you married my sister. Those who own black cards are among the most powerful people in the country. And this is a supreme black card. That means you stole it from the richest family in the country. I don’t know how you managed to do that, but when they discover your crime, they could have you killed. Do you even realise that?” Marilyn shook her head and scoffed at Roman.She looked at him like he was the most stupid person she had ever known, then her gaze became calculating. If she could be the one to report the stolen property, maybe she would be given a reward.Maybe she would even be invited to join the richest family in the country for dinner and start building connections from there. She had always
THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Five Hundred Trillion!
Fiona stuttered because she didn’t know what to say in response to Annabel’s words. She just held Marilyn’s hand and walked out of the bank.“Don’t worry, mum. I’m sure they’ll discover we’re telling the truth when he tries to withdraw from that card. There’s no way he knows the password. They will see that he’s a scam and he’ll be arrested, possibly treated even worse than they treated us just now.” Marilyn said as she tried to soothe their wounded pride.“You’re right, Mari. Then we’ll demand an apology from them, and maybe even compensation. But first, we need to call Haylee and let her know what happened here.”She took out her phone and dialled Haylee’s number. As soon as the call connected, Fiona didn’t even give her first daughter a chance to say hello, she immediately began to rant.“You’ll never guess what happened, Haylee. We just met your good for nothing ex-husband. I’m so glad you finally listened to reason and divorced him.”“Mum, slow down. Just tell me what happened.”
THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Charity Event
Roman didn’t have anything to wear to the event, but Annabel told him not to worry about anything. With his permission, she first booked the most expensive suite in the most expensive hotel in the city, so he could go and relax. Then she called in an expert to take his measurement and immediately ordered ten different designer brands of suits, each with its own shoes and accessories that he could pick from.He took a shower, ordered room service, and he was served his meal like a king. A stylist came in to work on his hair, then he chose what to wear among all the clothes ordered. Annabel showed him a list of expensive cars for him to choose from, and within thirty minutes, the car was delivered after being purchased. “I would like to accompany you to the event, Mr Roman.” She said to him with a hopeful smile.“Are you trying to babysit me? I’ll be fine on my own.”‘Of course, sir. You’re a capable man, I don’t doubt it at all. But I have more experience with events like these. I al
THE TRILLIONAIRE'S UNDERSTATED DOMINANCE Jealous Ex-wife
Haylee's eyes widened when she heard that Annabel was a senior director at the Prime Royale Bank. She quickly tried to compose herself, but her cheeks were flushed, and her palms were beginning to get sweaty. Being ignored by Rachael made her even more jealous because the woman was so comfortable speaking with Annabel. She stared at Roman with narrowed eyes, waiting for him to look at her so she could give him a signal that they needed to talk. Roman didn’t look at her though. His attention was focused on his conversation with Rachael after Annabel introduced him to her. Haylee’s grip on her wine glass tightened, but she had to force her grip to relax in order not to ruin her manicure.She was having a weird achy feeling in her heart, and her chest seemed tighter, making it a bit hard to breathe. She couldn’t believe that she just divorced Roman, and he already found another woman better than her.They moved into the main hall, and people immediately moved towards Hamilton and Hayle

Lazy Threats
Roman fists were clenched at his sides, the anger boiling in his veins was barely contained.Soren’s offer to buy him off had been laughable. Insulting, even. Now, the entire room was quiet.Until Alistair decided to open his mouth.“Roman,” Alistair said, adjusting his cufflinks like he wasn’t about to say something ridiculous. “Have you thought about what people will say?”Roman exhaled sharply, already tired of whatever speech was coming. “About what, exactly?”Alistair leaned forward, placing his hands on the table. “About the company.”Roman’s eyebrow twitched. “Be specific.”Alistair’s expression was calm, collected, but Roman could hear the thin layer of frustration in his voice. “What do you want the world to say about Averne Corporation when they find out we’re having an internal crisis about who the heir is? A long-lost heir suddenly returning and demanding power? What do you think that will do to our stock value?”Roman laughed.Alistair blinked in confusion. “What’s funny?
Stalling Tactics
Roman wasn’t used to having other people make decisions for him. But apparently, Kade didn’t care. Because one minute, they were talking about getting a secure place to stay, and the next minute, Kade had already bought one.Roman found out when Kade casually tossed him a set of keys over breakfast at his place the next day. “What’s this?” Roman asked, catching them mid-air.Kade smirked, sipping his coffee. “Your new home.”Roman blinked. “Excuse me?”“You know you need a place, right?” Kade leaned back in his chair. “So, I got you one.”Roman stared at him. “You didn’t think to, maybe, I don’t know, ask me first? What if I don’t like where you picked?”Kade shrugged. “Nah. And we are going to look at it after now. I will make any changes you want.”The place was insaneA grand penthouse in the heart of the city, with floor-to-ceiling windows, sleek modern furniture, and a skyline view that looked straight out of a movie.Roman stepped inside, looking around in disbelief.The living
Ambush
Roman pushed the hospital doors open and stepped out into the cool evening air, letting out a slow breath. He should have felt relieved. The DNA test had confirmed everything—he was Roman Averne. The heir.And yet, something in his gut told him that this wasn’t over.Kade walked beside him, hands in his pockets, looking way too relaxed for someone who had just helped shake up an entire empire. He shot Roman a glance. “So, how does it feel? Finally having proof?”Roman rolled his shoulders. “Like I won round one. But I’m guessing the fight isn’t over.”Kade smirked. “Now you’re thinking like an Averne.”Roman scoffed. “That’s not exactly comforting.”Kade chuckled, unlocking his car with a tap. “Get in. We’ve got a lot to talk about.”Roman slid into the passenger seat, closing the door behind him.Something told him this conversation wasn’t gonna be a fun one.The drive was quiet, but not awkward.Kade didn’t feel the need to fill silences with small talk, and Roman was grateful for t
Opening Act
Roman sat in the backseat of the sleek black car, staring out the window as the city passed by in a blur. Kade was driving. He was heading to a hospital. Not for a check-up or for an injury, but to find out if he even was who Kade thought he was.That was a whole new level of messed up, because what if he failed? How would the others take it? The ring was an indication of his heritage, but science still had it’s place. Kade sat at the driver's seat, completely relaxed, like they were on their way to grab coffee instead of taking a test that could shake Roman’s entire life. He just needed to recover his memory, and he would feel whole again. These petty doubts were getting tiring.The car pulled up to the private hospital entrance. Kade didn’t even have to announce their arrival—a small group of hospital staff and security were already waiting because Kade had called ahead.Roman took a deep breath and stepped out.Time to face the truth.When they got to the hospital, Lucian Averne,
They Want Proof
The room was dead silent.Roman stood beside the long, polished boardroom table, with his hands pressed flat against the wood. His gaze was sweeping over the stunned faces in front of him.Some of them looked furious. Others looked wary. A few were still trying to process the fact that he was even standing there.Good. Let them sit with it.He straightened up, adjusting the cuff of his jacket, and spoke calmly. “Let’s make this simple. I’m back. And I’m taking my place.”Another wave of murmurs rippled through the room, but Roman didn’t let it grow. He lifted a hand slightly, his expression completely unbothered.“Which means,” he continued, “whoever’s sitting in my chair right now needs to get up.”The room froze again.Then, just as he expected, chaos erupted.“This is absurd!” Alistair snapped, slamming a fist on the table. “You can’t just walk in here and make demands!”“You expect us to hand over everything just because you say so?” Evander added, his lips curling in disbelief.S
Shock And Disbelief
The next day, Roman walked through the towering glass doors of the Averne Corporation building like he owned the place.Because, technically? He did.The receptionist at the front desk barely had time to glance up before Roman was already striding past her with his long coat sweeping behind him. She called after him, probably to ask for ID or tell him he needed an appointment, but he didn’t slow down.He knew exactly where he was going.To the boardroom.To his family.To the people who had tried to erase him.The elevator ride was smooth and silent, but inside, Roman’s mind was anything but. He was still replaying Kade&rsq
Sneaking In
Roman wasn’t sure what he had expected when Kade said they were heading to his family’s company, but sneaking in like spies hadn’t been at the top of the list.Yet here they were.The Averne Corporation headquarters was a very tall, glass-covered beast in the heart of the city. It was intimidating and powerful-looking, and exactly what you’d expect from a company that controlled various industries across the world. It was the kind of place where billionaires made billion-dollar decisions before heading off to sip wine on a private island.And right now, Roman was standing in the shadows of its underground parking lot, staring up at the place like a stranger.Because that’s what he was at that time.“Alright,” he muttered, adjusting the collar of his black jacket. “So what’s the plan? We just walk in and say, ‘Hey, I’m back from the dead, give me my company’?”Kade, who was leaning casually against a concrete pillar like he had all the time in the world, smirked. “Not quite. That would
