THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR MARVIN RICHMOND REVEALED
The gates of the company headquarters groaned as they swung open, their movement was smooth and deliberate. Through the opening, four sleek black vehicles rolled in with a menacing air. They parked in a calculated manner, forming a neat yet intimidating line that reflected the power of those inside.The lead car's door opened first. A broad-shouldered, tough-looking man stepped out, his movements were precise, and his gaze was sharp. He strode to the back of the vehicle and opened the door with military precision.Victor Zypher emerged.The air seemed to change as he stepped out. A faint, spectral aura surrounded him, a shimmer was now in the air that made him appear larger than life. His presence was overwhelming—both regal and terrifying. On his wrist, he wore a golden bracelet, intricately designed and glowing faintly. That was no ordinary bracelet; it was his amulet, a powerful artifact that granted him the ability to turn invisible at will. It was a reminder of the special a
THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR THE FALLOUT BEGINS
The moment Victor Zypher uttered Marvin Richmond’s name, the room’s atmosphere grew heavier, suffused with unspoken tension. Marvin’s calm demeanor faltered, if only for a split second, before he composed himself. He stood, smoothing out his suit, and forced a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.“Mr. Zypher, oh, what a surprise.” Marvin extended a hand toward him, his voice was steady but it lacked conviction.Mr Victor didn’t take the hand. His piercing gaze bore into Marvin as though the handshake was beneath him. His tone was sharp, almost venomous. “What are you doing here, in an office meant for my daughter?”Marvin inhaled deeply, his composure was only slightly shaken. He clasped his hands behind his back and gave a practiced smile. “Well, Mr. Zypher, it’s a long story,” he began carefully. “But to sum it up, I run the entire Zypher branch here in Neovalle. However, you have no need to worry—your daughter is one of my executive staff members.”Mr Zypher’s expression hardened.
THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR THE SPECTRAL THREAT
Marvin’s expression remained calm, but his tone carried an edge of defiance. “And why should my business transaction with your daughter concern you?” he asked, his voice was cold and deliberate.Victor Zypher’s face darkened further, as his fury was barely contained. “Because it is my property she handed over to you, not hers!” he bellowed, with a voice that echoed through the office like a thunderclap.Marvin didn’t flinch. Instead, he tilted his head slightly, a faint smirk also creeped onto his face. “Well, Mr. Zypher,” he began, his voice was low but unyielding, “if you think that raising your voice on me is going to make me spill out just anything you want to hear from me, then you are mistaken.”His eyes locked with that of Mr Victor, and his tone grew colder. “Unless you are willing to calm down, sit so we can reason a way forward, get the hell out of my office before I do something to you and your entourage that you never expected.”For a moment, Victor Zypher froze. Marvin’s
THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR THROUGH BLOOD AND WILL
The room grew eerily silent as Mr. Zypher's form flickered and faded into invisibility, leaving Marvin seemingly alone. A faint chill ran through the air, the only trace of Mr Zypher's spectral presence. The tension was suffocating, and Marvin’s calm exterior began to falter ever so slightly.Suddenly, the faintest sound broke the silence—a sharp, piercing noise that Marvin instantly recognized. It was the sound of a blade slicing through the air, it was deadly and precise.Marvin’s instincts screamed at him. His heart pounded as he focused inward, calling upon the energy he had suppressed—his synapticore force. A low hum began to resonate in his head, growing louder as the energy within him stirred. Slowly, everything around him sharpened and became clearer. Shadows deepened, movements in the air became visible, and he could feel every vibration, every shift in the atmosphere.Meanwhile, Mr. Zypher, who was invisible and holding the dagger tightly in his hand, smiled to himself.
THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR THE COLLAPSE OF A TITAN
Mr. Zypher lunged forward, with his invisible form cutting through the air with deadly precision. The dagger was aimed straight at Marvin’s chest. He was eager, too eager, to end it all in one strike.But just as he drove forward, something snapped inside him.A sudden, crushing pain exploded in Mr. Zypher’s head. It was as though his brain had been overloaded, weighed down by something he couldn’t describe or even begin to understand. He staggered, his movements were faltering. His grip on the dagger loosened, and it clattered to the floor.“No… what is this…?” Mr. Zypher gasped, clutching his head with both hands. The pain swelled, it was unbearable and consuming. It was a force unlike anything he had ever encountered. His mind, trained to resist manipulation, now felt fractured and violated.Then came the scream.It was primal, raw, and full of agony. Mr. Zypher fell to his knees, his scream reverberating through the room as blood began to drip from his nose, staining his once-p
THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR WHEN FEAR REIGNS
Mr. Zypher’s cries continued, echoing through the room like the wails of a broken man. His hands clutched his head tightly as the pain tore through him. His breaths were ragged, and his body trembled uncontrollably. Through the agony, he managed to muffle out, “Please… Marvin… don’t kill me. I don’t want to die.”Marvin stood still, his glowing sky-blue eyes were fixed on the writhing man before him. His presence was cold and unshaken, like a predator looming over its weakened prey.“Ohhhh, Mr. Zypher,” Marvin said at last, his voice buzzing with an unnatural energy, which was almost electric. His front hair near his temples had turned stark white, as though the immense power of the synapticore force he channeled had begun to change him physically.“You really thought you would outsmart me… didn’t you?” Marvin’s tone was slow and measured, but it carried a sharp edge of danger.Mr Zypher’s body twitched as he tried to speak. “Stop… please… I’ll do whatever you want… I don’t want to
THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR COMMANDING THE PRESENT, SECURING THE FUTURE
Five days later, Marvin’s office was set. The sunlight poured in through the tall glass windows, casting sharp rays across the minimalist yet imposing space. Everything was in its place: the polished desk, the leather chair, and the faint hum of technology in the background. Marvin sat at his desk, calm and prepared, as if the events of the previous days hadn’t happened. But beneath his calm exterior, his mind was sharp and focused, ready for the day’s events.He reached for the sleek telephone on his desk and pressed a button. His deep, steady voice echoed in the empty room as he spoke. “Get Zack Boston, the sales manager, to come to my office immediately.”The call was brief. Marvin didn’t need to repeat himself.Within six minutes, there was a knock on the door. Marvin’s gaze flicked toward it. “Come in,” he said firmly, with a tone that left no room for hesitation.The door opened slowly, and Zack Boston entered. He was a thin, wiry man in his mid-40s, dressed in a perfectly i
THE UNDERESTIMATED HEIR SHATTERED EXPECTATIONS
Inside Jessica's chambers at the sprawling Zypher mansion, the air was heavy with silence, broken only by the faint hum of medical equipment. Mr. Zypher sat slumped in a wheelchair, his head was propped up by a supportive brace. His once-proud and commanding presence was now reduced to a frail, sulking figure. Bandages were wrapped around his temple, and a thin tube ran to an oxygen tank to help him breathe. The injuries Marvin Richmond had inflicted left him physically battered and emotionally crushed.Jessica stood by the large window, gazing out at the rain-soaked gardens. She didn’t dare meet her father’s eyes. Her hands trembled slightly as she fiddled with her phone, the weight of her father’s disappointment kept pressing on her like a stone.From the wheelchair, Mr. Zypher let out a hoarse groan, his voice was dripping with bitterness. "Eight hundred million dollars," he muttered, shaking his head weakly. "Eight hundred million dollars in cash! That’s what Marvin demands t

UNANSWERED QUESTIONS
It was Valentine’s Day.Inside his VVIP lounge at the Aurora Grand Hotel, Marvin stood in front of his large bedroom TV. He was fully dressed in a custom-made navy blue suit, adjusting his silver cufflinks. His reflection on the screen showed a man who had everything — success, power, and charm.On the TV, a documentary about his company, Helios Enterprise, played softly. Marvin glanced at it with mild interest. The documentary showed all the major exploits and innovations of Helios Enterprise, including the famous SOLNOVA Projects — inventions that had the possibility of changing solar technology across the world.The voice of the narrator filled the room:"Helios Enterprise, under the visionary leadership of Marvin Richmond, would be launching the SOLNOVA projects in four days time, with the hope of bringing endless energy to millions..."Just then, Marvin’s phone buzzed. He smiled faintly and called Helena.She picked up almost immediately."Hey, are you ready?" Marvin asked, his
FROZEN AT THE THRESHOLD
She had heard it all. Every word, every promise, every confession. Her heart sank with each syllable that left Marvin’s lips. His voice was so filled with conviction, so different from the way he had spoken to her. To Helena, it was a cruel revelation. The man she loved—truly loved—had just opened his heart to another woman in a way she had never imagined.Helena stood frozen just outside the door, her breath caught in her chest. She wanted to retreat, to leave the space, but she couldn’t. She was paralyzed, as if the air had thickened around her, suffocating her ability to move. The reality of Marvin’s feelings for Stella settled over her like a dark cloud, suffusing her thoughts with bitterness and sorrow. She couldn’t comprehend how it had all gone so wrong upon the firm confirmation that Marvin had another lover.From inside the office, Marvin’s voice continued to flow, filled with life and excitement as he spoke to Stella, unaware that Helena was standing mere feet away, hea
A FUTURE TOGETHER?
Marvin leaned back in his chair, the conversation with Helena was still echoing in his mind. It had been a close call earlier, but things had finally lightened. She had kissed him lightly on the cheek before heading for the door, leaving behind the faint trace of her perfume, the scent lingered in the air like an invisible mark of her presence.The door clicked softly behind her, and for a brief moment, Marvin let the silence settle. He closed his eyes, exhaling deeply, with a sense of relief washing over him. His shoulders, tense from the pressure of the conversation, began to relax as the moment of calm spread through him. But just as he thought he might get the chance to fully unwind, his phone buzzed again.He glanced at the screen, the name was flashing brightly: Stella Orion.A smile tugged at the corners of his lips. Stella. She had this way of making everything feel easier, lighter. His mood shifted, almost eagerly, as he swiped to answer the call. No more pretending,
A FRAGILE MOMENT
She leaned forward, her eyes locking onto his. The tension between them was palpable, thick enough that Marvin could almost feel it pressing on his chest."Why are you not picking up your call?" she demanded, her voice was now laced with suspicion.Her tone had shifted. It was forceful now, more aggressive, more violent than it had been a moment ago. "Who is it, Marvin?"The question hung in the air like a heavy weight. Marvin’s heart raced as the blood drained from his face. He could feel the words slipping through his mind, desperate to make an escape, but he couldn’t bring himself to speak the truth. He had promised himself that he would be honest, that he would stop lying... but now, under the intensity of her gaze, he wasn’t sure what would happen if he did.For a moment, he simply stared at her. The silence stretched out, dragging on longer than it should have. The weight of their unspoken words pressed down on him, suffocating him in a way that felt almost unbearable.What
HOME, BUT NOT THE SAME
Marvin opened the door gently.The soft click of the handle turning echoed slightly in the quiet room.Inside, Helena sat on the couch near the office desk, her eyes were fixed on her phone. Her fingers glided lightly across the screen, seemingly absorbed in whatever she was reading. The atmosphere in the room felt different — quieter, colder.As the door swung open, Helena raised her eyes slowly.Their gazes met.Marvin’s heart skipped a beat. A wave of relief and joy washed over him at the sight of her, but something else lingered in the air — something he couldn’t quite place.Without thinking, he walked toward her with open arms, he felt the instinct to pull her close. He had missed her — more than he cared to admit.But today was different.Helena didn’t rush toward him, as she used to. There was no excited smile, no sparkle in her eyes. She simply stood up, her movements were slow and deliberate, almost mechanical. Her expression remained unreadable.He faltered for a moment,
HOME, BUT NOT THE SAME 1
A Week Later…The city of Neovalle was bathed in the soft, golden light of morning.After a week away, Marvin Richmond finally returned to Neovalle.He sat comfortably in the backseat of a sleek black luxury vehicle, the engine was humming quietly as it moved smoothly through the streets.The windows were slightly tinted, shielding him from the outside world, but Marvin could still see the tall buildings, busy streets, and colorful banners fluttering in the breeze.Neovalle was alive as ever—but for Marvin, something felt different.He leaned back into the plush leather seat, resting his head for a moment against the headrest, deep in thought.The driver, dressed neatly in a black suit, maneuvered the car expertly through the final turns, heading straight toward the tall, modern building of Helios Enterprise.Marvin’s sharp grey eyes caught sight of the familiar shining letters on the front of the company compound as they approached.HELIOS ENTERPRISE.Home.The vehicle slowed down as
UNDERNEATH THE PERFECT SKY
Inside the grand office of Helios Enterprise, sunlight streamed through the tall glass windows, bouncing off the polished floors and elegant white walls.The office smelled of fresh leather and paper—it was a scent of power and business.At the large, black marble desk sat Helena.Today she looked cooperate, business like, beautiful and sharp, dressed in a smart navy-blue suit that hugged her curvaceous body perfectly. Her long dark hair was neatly tied into a loose ponytail. A gold watch glinted on her wrist as she held her phone to her ear, finishing up a call with an important investor.Her voice was calm, sweet, but full of authority.“Yes, Mr. Langston. The shipment will be ready by noon tomorrow. You’ll have the first batch by next week, as promised. Trust me—Helios always delivers,” Helena said, her lips curling into a confident smile.She ended the call and placed the phone gently on the desk.Then, without missing a beat, she lifted her eyes to the four men standing quietly
WHEN LOVE DEMANDS MORE
Inside a quiet chamber in the Orion estate, the air was warm and sweet with the scent of jasmine. Moonlight poured through the glass ceiling, casting soft silver light on the bed where Marvin Richmond and Stella Orion lay—entwined in each other’s arms, naked, warm, and close.Their lips met again.A deep, slow, passionate kiss.Her fingers slid through his thick hair, pulling him in gently, while his hands caressed the soft curve of her waist. Their bodies pressed together—skin against skin—hearts pounding, breath shallow.She moaned softly, holding him closer.Their kiss wasn’t rushed. It was tender. Burning. A silent cry of relief, passion, and love.“I missed you,” Stella whispered, her voice was husky against his lips.“I missed you more,” Marvin breathed, brushing her cheek with his knuckles.Stella giggled slightly, then kissed his jaw, moving to his ear.She held his face in her hands and whispered, playfully but with a hint of mischief,“You know, I should cut off your ears
THE ELDERS VERDICT
Tariq Khyber could not move.His body was frozen, stiff like carved wood. His chest rose and fell with short, ragged breaths, but everything else was still. His mouth twitched, trying to form words—but no sound escaped.The Elder with the glowing Synapticore moved away from his obsidian chair.The silver-blue light on his forehead pulsed brighter, hotter. Like lightning trapped in glass.He took one step forward on the floating platform.And then—“How dare you interrupt an Elder, Mr. Khyber?”The Elder’s voice struck again.Tariq gasped, and suddenly a sharp pain stabbed into his head.He clutched at his skull—yet still could not move his limbs.A terrible pressure was building inside his brain.It was like invisible hands were tightening around it… squeezing slowly.His face twisted.Blood began to drip from Tariq's nose.“How dare you interrupt an Elder, Mr. Khyber?” the Elder asked again.This time the squeezing became sharper, more violent. Tariq’s eyes rolled back for a moment.
