The Dark Side of the Heir Part 11
The clock on the wall was already past seven in the evening. The family should have been eating their dinner with relish. However, due to the absence of just one person, they were asked to wait until that person arrived.The only woman with bright red lipstick nearly slammed down the spoon and fork she was holding. Her stomach was already rumbling, but she was asked by her husband to hold on a little longer."Don't let Michel eat alone," Alberto muttered."Then let us all starve?" interrupted Michel's stepmother Claire.If only she hadn't been taught to be a noblewoman, she would have snatched the roast chicken and taken a bite right away. However, just imagining it felt horrible. There was no way she could do that."Father, let us eat first. It's not like he'll be home in a few minutes," Michel's half-brother Brion complained."In a few minutes. In a minute," Alberto said.In that house, Alberto was the only one in charge. If Alberto said no, it meant that no one had the right to res

Hearing what Brion said, Alberto immediately looked at the man sharply. Brion could only sigh, he was silent and continued eating dinner.Meanwhile, at Erick's apartment."The Michel I met at the boutique yesterday was not Michel-my poor ex-husband. You should know, darling, he's well-dressed. From head to toe, even the vehicle that carries him is all expensive goods. I know it's all genuine. I'm quite observant," said Elera yesterday after returning from the boutique and admitting to meeting Michel.Erick clenched one hand ready to throw his fist at the wall. I don't know why he was still reminded of Elera's story last night. Between believing and not, but Elera's words were so convincing."How can someone's life change in just a moment? Where did Michel get his wealth?" Erick muttered angrily.He didn't like it when Michel was above him. Erick wanted the man to suffer, and end up having nightmares every night.After the incident where Michel found out that Elera was having an affair

The house was quiet. Alberto folded the newspaper and placed it on the glass table in the center of the sofa.One of the servants who worked with him passed by carrying cleaning tools. Alberto called out, the servant turned around and approached his master."Where is my wife? Is Claire still in her room?" asked Alberto looking upstairs for a glimpse."Yes, sir," replied the servant nodding."Claire didn't come out at all?" Alberto asked again."No, sir. Madame Claire asked me and the other maids to take care of her today. She said she was too lazy to leave her room."The maid's explanation was enough. Alberto asked the servant to go back to work. Meanwhile, he was about to go to his room to see Claire.I don't know if it was just Alberto's feeling or not. This morning Claire seemed to have deliberately not come to the dining room because she was still angry about last night's dinner.Alberto let out a long sigh. Isn't Claire's nature very childish if that's true? Alberto didn't expect

"Where the fuck are those two guys." Erick hissed, throwing his cell phone on the sofa.Not a single call was picked up by James or Rio. Erick had no one but the two of them to ask for information about Michel.Erick had tried to contact the two men a dozen times. Sent messages, but none were read."Actually, where are the two of them? There's no way that after receiving money from me, they decided to leave, right?" Erick wondered.Even the money Erick had given them was very small. It wouldn't be worth the monthly salary they received if it was collected in just a few months. So, it was ridiculous.Erick then sat on the sofa. He put his feet up on the table. He tried to calm down, neutralizing the angry feelings that were building up."I'll go crazy if I don't find information about that poor guy." Erick propped up his chin. "Elera's story was very convincing yesterday. There's no way she lied to me. What's the point?"Erick was very curious about where Michel got that wealth. The ca

"James!" exclaimed Michel.The call that came from their CEO got the attention alone of the remaining people in the room. James stopped at the doorway, cursing inwardly at having his movements discovered by Michel."Damn it." James raised a hand almost grabbing his own hair.Rio heard Michel calling James in a fairly loud voice. Rio slowly approached Michel, then made small talk.James saw the reflection of Rio and Michel from the glass window in front of him. This was used as an opportunity by James to get out of there before he was detained by Michel."What is it, Mr. Michel?" Rio asked, distracting Michel."Wasn't that James?" muttered Michel pointing to the man who had now disappeared behind the door.Rio followed where Michel's fingertips pointed. "Oh, right, it was James. But, what did Mr. Michel call him for? Isn't the meeting session over?"Michel shifted his gaze from James to Rio. "Where does James want to go? The meeting session is already over. But, it's still working hour

"Why, you don't want to help me anymore?" Erick scolded with a sharp look.James was in an awkward position. Because he had promised Michel that he would not have any more contact with Erick. Moreover, helping the man find out all the latest things about Michel is full of mystery."That's not it, Mr. Erick," squeaked James rubbing the back of his head."Then, what? I'll pay you handsomely. As long as you get the information I ask for. Not hard, is it?" asked Erick. James shook his head quickly.If he took Erick's offer, then the consequences James would receive were worse than yesterday. Michel threatened to fire him if he was caught working with Erick again. But, on the one hand James couldn't refuse the money the man was offering him."Give me some time, sir." James pointed one finger. "However, Michel is not an ordinary staff member anymore. He goes around accompanied by an assistant. If I make the slightest misstep, my life is ruined." James explained so Erick wouldn't misundersta

Erick's story about Michel is still ringing in Elera's ears. Too much change makes Elera between convinced and unsure.Her poor ex-husband is now the leader of a big company. Everyone is subservient, respecting Michel for having power.Elera lightly applied lipstick to her lips before adding more. "It can't be helped. I have to see it for myself. Hearing from other people's stories sometimes makes me question whether it's the truth or not."The beautiful woman got up from her makeup chair. She grabbed a shiny black handbag. "Today I'll make sure of everything. But if it's true that Michel is now rich. I would feel sorry. I know I'll still make him my husband." Elera cigars.Elera secretly went to Michel's office this morning. Investigating, Michel's ex-wife wanted to confirm the stories from the people herself. Even though the first person to spread that Michel had changed was shr herself. Or ... is this just Elera's tactic because she wants to get the man back after throwing him away
The Dark Side of the Heir Part 18
The cell phone in Elera's bag rang loudly. One hand rummaged through the contents of her bag and pulled out the square object. Elera picked up the call as soon as she realized who was calling her."Hello, darling." Elera greeted sweetly and affectionately."Elera, are you away today?" Erick asked. Yes, the person who called her was Erick.Elera didn't want to be caught by her boyfriend. Therefore, Elera quickly picked up the call."Yes, dear." Elera moved her cell phone to her ear. "I asked your permission yesterday. Today I want to go shopping. I want a bag from one of the famous brands. I want to wear it to my friend's birthday party this week.""Shopping?" muttered Erick."Yes. What's wrong, darling?" asked Elera nervously.From the way Erick spoke, it was as if he didn't believe her. Or did Erick know that Elera was stalking Michel? Elera immediately panicked."Are you sure you're going shopping, darling?""I'm sure... I am." Elera rubbed the tip of her forehead. "Honey, you can't
