The First Son's Revenge 117
Elena stuttered at Reid's accusation. She was surprised by how quickly the situation changed. Just last night they were making love and loving each other, then suddenly now...Elena hurriedly said, “Ben, you misunderstood. No-"“Don't call me by that name. We both know that my name is not Benton Kessler, but Reid Arison," Reid interrupted quickly.Elena widened her eyes at Reid's words. “You have your memory back? B-but how is that possible?” Elena stammered. Yesterday, when Reid fainted and was taken to hospital, the man admitted that he remembered the scene of the attack on the river, but wasn't that just a brief, unclear flash? So how come this morning Reid suddenly remembered his own name? Even complete with his last name. Does this have anything to do with the strange man who appeared in front of their hotel room?Elena stared at the strange guest, not recognizing him.“Yes, my memory has returned. And in my memory, I know that I have never had a girlfriend named Elena. So tell

Does Elena now regret her decision to save Reid? No, she doesn't regret it. Even if given a second chance to go back to that moment, the night when she witnessed Reid's body being thrown into the river by someone ordered by her father, Elena would still choose to do the same thing: save Reid.Because Reid deserves to be saved.Elena clenched her fists, she took a breath before answering all of Reid's questions that seemed to be cornering her."It's true that I did all this on my own initiative, I saved you because of my own will and it had nothing to do with my father or with revenge for my brother's death," Elena began.“When I heard my father was planning to kill you, I knew I had to thwart it, but I didn't know how. I didn't want to go straight to the police because that would mean my father would be caught straight away. I really don't have a grudge against you regarding the fate of my brothers, but that doesn't mean I will remain silent if my father has to have the same fate as t

Reid stepped into the hotel lobby and there Charles and Arison's bodyguards were waiting for him. They lined up in black uniforms and dark glasses, with earphones in their ears.When Reid arrived in front of them, the guards immediately bowed respectfully and surrounded Reid like a shield.Reid didn't say anything about this tight security and just continued walking to his car which was parked in front of the hotel. He remembered his car, a black electric car which was his first project to prove his ability to be a CEO. The project was assisted by Amanda Waverly.There was a sharp pain in Reid's heart when he remembered the woman's name. A woman who is not just a female employee, but also a friend. The only friend Reid has.Although at the end of Amanda's life, the woman admitted that she had feelings for him. Reid was of course surprised.Reid didn't think that Amanda had feelings like that for him. As long as they worked together, as far as Reid could remember, there was never a rom

Meanwhile, at the Arison company, a middle-aged man was seen sitting at his desk, there was a plaque that said deputy CEO in front of him. That person was none other than Raynold Clark.Raynold seemed to be smiling with satisfaction looking at the gold plated plaque. He is sure that soon that plaque will change to CEO. Soon he will rise to that position because, who else can stop him?Now Reid is dead. Even though his body had not been found, Raynold’s men had confirmed that before they threw Reid into the river, the man had been killed by gunfire.Meanwhile, Reid's trusted people at the Arison company, one by one, have removed Raynold.Initially, of course, Raynold gave them a choice first, whether they wanted to move to Raynold's side or remain on Reid's side.Those who switched to Raynold's side could, of course, survive dismissal. These people helped Raynold during the voting for the deputy CEO.Meanwhile, those who stupidly remained loyal to Reid were of course immediately fired.

After a long journey, Reid Arison finally arrived at his original residence, namely Arison's residence.Reid walked confidently through the wide yard of his house, there was no feeling of awkwardness at all because his memory had completely returned. This is his home. This is the place where his grandfather and mother once lived.Even though it hasn't been long since Reid lived in this residence, he considers this house "home" more than any other place he has ever lived in, more than the Cliffton residence he has lived in for many years. It's not a matter of luxury, but because this is where Reid really gets family love.Unfortunately the people he considered family are now dead. Jacob Arison, Amanda Waverly...And Amanda's death was not a natural death, but due to murder. Reid had promised that he would put the people connected to the murder in prison. Raynold and his gang of hitmen."Is Eric Gibson here yet?" Reid asked as he walked through the front door. Reid said the name of the

A few days laterRaynold Clark was in the meeting room surrounded by Arison company officials. Currently he has just finished presenting the latest project idea that he stole from Reid's room.Applause thundered in the room, and praise even flowed incessantly, praising the greatness of the idea that Raynold had just presented.Raynold smiled with satisfaction when he received an enthusiastic response from all company officials. He is sure that after this his path to rising to the CEO position will become easier.He had gotten rid of Reid and his trusted men, and now he had proven his great abilities in front of the remaining company officials. If he doesn't serve as CEO, who else?Raynold smiled at the thought of the highest throne that was before his eyes. But the moment was interrupted by a vibration on his cell phone.Raynold frowned, glancing at his jacket pocket. He has two cellphones, one that is used regularly to communicate with his family and colleagues, and another cellphon

This time Raynold made another telephone call, not to his secretary, but to a subordinate who acted as his spy."Investigate who Stephen Martinez really is, how could he betray me!" Raynold ordered.And a few hours later, Raynold was stunned when he heard the explanation from his subordinates that Stephen Martinez apparently had a very close relationship with John Waverly, Amanda Waverly's father.“Damn! So all this time it turns out that John had his spy near me. How could I not have noticed?!” said Raynold angrily. He clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white.But of course Raynold didn't just keep quiet. He immediately contacted his subordinates to give further orders. "Immediately find Stephen Martinez, then kill him. Also kill his wife. I don't want the person who betrayed me to just run away," Raynold hissed."Yes, sir," said Raynold's men.Raynold returned to pacing his room with a restless expression. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of panic when he found out that

“That's slander! I couldn't possibly do such a cruel act. I couldn't possibly kill Reid Arison. Besides, I don't know who El Selvaggio is, so how could I work with them?!” Raynold exclaimed, defending himself. Of course he couldn't just obey the police.“You can express your defense later through a lawyer. Now come with us to the police station," said the police officer while placing his hand on Raynold's back, leading the man to walk out of this meeting room.Instead of obeying the police's words, Raynold rebelled. He looked at the company officials in front of him. At least before he was taken to the police station, he had to make sure the people in front of him remained on his side.“Do you believe what the police accused me of just now? It's all bullshit. How could I kill Reid? Reid is not my biological son, but he is the grandson of Jacob Arison, a person who has been very instrumental in my life so of course I also really care about Reid as a family. If I didn't love Reid, do yo
