THE UNWANTED HEIR: HIDDEN POWER

"Hey, no way! If it's true that he used magic, they would surely tell the world about the big day. They won't hide the marriage, you know? In fact, they never looked to be with each other to date. He still works here as a cleaning worker. If he's the son-in-law of this company owner, he won't work from nine to five at the pantry. He would have been sitting in the boss' room enjoying his new position as a manager or direct—""How could he possibly occupy that position? What can he do with the job? Meeting, analyzing and decision making… ah, just to be a normal employee like us, he won't be able to. How could he understand how to make a report?" the operational staff interrupted. Drake was an orphan and needy, had been working for the company for three years. Before the marriage happened, he was only an unconsidered lowly worker and didn't have a close relationship with any of them. He didn't know who and how the news was disclosed at the office. However, he had to keep it on mom's word

At nine in the morning, after the meeting with Diana's attorney, Drake emerged from the house carrying his suitcase. The laceration on his hand was better and still bandaged. Drake searched for a very cheap apartment to stay in. He chose not to go back to his mother's house so that she wouldn't ask questions and be stressed. However, Drake ran out of money that wasn't enough to rent an apartment for a few days. He was jobless now, homeless and broke. Where would he go? Drake was thinking about finding a new job while sitting down on the bench after dragging his luggage around the street for two hours as holding back the whole pain in his body. Unfortunately, the supervisor didn't give him a reference letter he should have received when the termination notice was issued. The worst part was he still had no idea the specific reason for his termination. "What are you doing here, Drake?" Drake moved his eyes to him. The man he recognized as Rooney, standing in front of him, gazing at

“I have two sons whom I expect to continue managing our company. They two are my heirs, but they're bad in organizing business to keep it going fine. They often spend much money to have fun, but spend little time at work. I should’ve had my pension today and put my company in their trust. But I’m not lucky cos they almost let me go bankrupt.” Quiet. “That’s why I ask you to be the CEO. It will surely attract their attention to change the bad habits and be more serious in work cos they’re gonna think their position would soon be replaced by someone else. A business only needs a capable person to sit down on the chair,” Jessie knocked on the desk three times. “Remember, Child, life is hard but business is crueler. You’ll get a lot of things from this plan. You can say I take some benefits from you.” Still silence “You don’t have much time to think about it, Son. If you think it’s temporary, just take this chance to repay them to their deen. Cos after that, you won’t hold that positio

"Everything is in fix, sir. Rooney has also been nursed. As per Lord's orders, we did not take him to the hospital. I've also gagged him from talking about your power." Drake nodded happily. He himself did not suffer any injuries from the incident other than his body having to adapt to the fire funeral slowly. All the guards who were witnesses were not allowed to tell anyone about Drake's power. The warehouse burned down because Drake could not control the output of his fire power. The burning flames kept growing after they all exited the old building. "The engagement party was rather disrupted, the guests were whispering about Miss Diana the whole time. The Johnsons were very upset," another bodyguard said. Drake's smile widened even more, satisfied to make the guests curious with the hints he said. "So?" "They're having trouble explaining it to the guests," the bodyguard continued. "And they denied it, sir," added the other guard. Drake's smug smile faded away just as the newl

A knock came on the door, while Drake and Aaron were going on about the unfinished money case. Sammy rushed to come in and stopped before Drake. "We found out the cause of your accident, sir. It wasn't a common case but someone has designed it to harm you."Again, a shocking news hit Drake that an unknown man targeted him to be shot. It caused his chest to tighten since his breath hitched. Aaron was also stunned and hard to swallow in that he couldn't believe that someone had the same will with him, too. He smiled slightly since someone made his plan easier. Unfortunately, Sammy incidentally caught his expression. "Do you know who the perpetrator was?" Aaron asked, looking wondering as if he was concerned. "Yes, sir. That person was Miss Diana.'' Aaron and Drake were startled that Diana–for Drake–was beyond imagination to get her own back on him, except her parents wanted him to pay just because of the intrusion he made on their anniversary party. Then, Aaron bursted out laughing
