The Formidable Heir DUMB HEAD
"It's morning already?!" Lucian gasps hysterically. How can it be morning? He was meant to meet with his dad and he also haven't eaten! No, Bertram must be joking. Hahaha. He must be. Ah!Doctor Bertram looks at Lucian scrupulously and creases his brow as he asks politely? "It clocked 12:01 a.m. not long ago, Mr. Wood. Is there anything you had to do?"'12:01?' Lucian screams in his head, almost screaming it out loud. It's already a new day and he hasn't eaten anything since yesterday! His stomach rumbles as if it is just realizing that. Lucian sighs and waits till it relieves a little before looking up at Doctor Bertram."It's nothing," he wipes every single emotion off his face and smiles up gratefully at him. "Thank you for taking care of Helen. Your kind gesture will not be forgotten. I'll take her with me," he drifts his gaze to the tall burly figure and orders, "Go fetch her.""This way," Doctor Bertram, knowing there's no way the tall burly figure will know the ward Helen is w
The Formidable Heir MYSTICAL AURA
Maureen flushes in chagrin and lowers her head. "I'm sorry, Sir," she says barely audibly but loud enough for Lucian to hear."Just tell me what I want to hear and keep your damn apology to yourself!" "They were checked in by a colleague of mine and were attended to by Doctor Bertram. It had nothing to do with the medical director. He wasn't even around at that time. "From what my colleague told me, they were almost rejected as all the doctors were busy, including Doctor Bertram. But he still chose to attend to them, not caring about how busy he was. One of them is in the intensive care unit while the other is in the general ward."Maureen, is after all, smart. It is obvious Lucian has a good impression of Doctor Bertram, so she had told the last story to paint him better than he already is in Lucian's eyes.This she did to please Lucian, hoping it will make him happy and he can decide to let her off the hook. The truth of it all is that the story never happened! The paramedics tha
The Formidable Heir DON'T DARE LIE TO ME!
Doctor Bertram feels this aura deep down his bones and a great sense of fear prickles his skin, threatening to engulf him. He hastily turns to Lucian and all the hairs on his body stand on end as if sculptures as he sees his expression. Mr. Wood must be having a wrong impression! "It's not what you think, Mr. Wood. I promise!" He cries out in utmost terror before Lucian can say anything."I'm not thinking anything. That is why you are still standing there unscathed! Begin talking now before I start thinking something!""Ok, I will. I will," he swallows a lump of spittle and clears his throat."I know it is said that the general ward is basically kept for recovering patients. To be honest, that isn't entirely correct."Sometimes, when a critically ill patient has been constantly attended to and he or she still shows no sign of recovery, we tend to advise the parents or guardians to come take him or her home, but if they insist the patient should remain in the hospital, we have no choic
The Formidable Heir WORK WITH ME
Doctor Bertram takes a deep breath and dejectedly sinks into the only free bed in the ward. He entwines his hands and looks up at Lucian, but suddenly, his eyes have a distant look in them. He is directly looking at Lucian, but his gaze is not really on him. More like he is seeing way past the young man in front of him. It is a clear hint that they are in for a long ride.Lucian, understanding that and ready for whatever it is, leans into the wall and crosses his arms against his chest.He is so disgruntled that he wants to get to the bottom of this. Like, he just doesn't understand why humans can be so cruel to one another! Why is the world so evil? Gosh!"You see, Mr. Wood, in this world, there are levels in everything. Ranging from churches, mosques, hospitals, companies, hotels, retail shops, everything! There are levels to everything everywhere! "Every man and woman will always have another man and woman who is bigger than him and her no matter their status!"Discrimination exi
The Formidable Heir OGLING HER BOSS
If he knew, he surely wouldn't have said that!Naturally, Lucian should tell him who he is and end the conversation, but he isn't quite ready to reveal his true identity yet, so he merely asks, "Let's imagine I had rights in this hospital and could go up against all those big shots, will you work with me?"'It's just an imagination, right? Then there's no harm in responding honestly' Doctor Bertram thinks. He then smiles and nods. "Yes, I would. I've always wanted this hospital to be a better place.Lucian smiles and steps up to him. "Thank you for being such a good man. I can already see how much of a promising medical director you will be. He pats him on the shoulder twice and looks around. "Where is my friend? I need to quickly say hello to her."Doctor Bertram doesn't hear Lucian's last statement as he is carried away by the second.Medical director? Hah! Is he joking with me? Instead of being surprised, he finds what Lucian said hilarious. There are more than ten doctors senior
The Formidable Heir WHO IS THAT YOUNG MAN REALLY?
"Anyone would have come to this hospital, gotten what they came for, and left without paying me a visit, but you did. That is to show how much you value me, your employee. Thank you so much. I'm grateful.""It's nothing," Lucian waves her off and stands. "I'm glad you're all right. However, I must depart now. Forget about the bills and recuperate; the company will take care of everything. Also, do not consider returning to work once you have been discharged. "I'll have Yvonne prepare a leave for you. She will come pick you up once you are discharged and take you home. Your leave will be lasting for two weeks. Rest well and come back to work after that."The lady's tears freely cascade down her cheeks. He is so kind-hearted. She's never had a boss like him. She makes to stand and kneel to thank him but Lucian quickly holds her back. "Please," he shakes his head."Thank you so much, sir! Thank you!" Since she can't show her appreciation through actions, she says with utmost sincerity.
The Formidable Heir THE THREE MUSKETEERS!
A bolt of lightning flashes and thunder roars. It's about to rain. The temperature plummets by so many degrees, causing everywhere to become chilly, and a great drastic wind begins blowing in all directions.Lucian trembles. He has just walked out of the hospital into the cold empty boulevard.It should not be forgotten that he wore Helen his shirt to cover her nakedness, leaving him with only his singlet.His gait is becoming heavy and his teeth are gnashing against each other.He curses inwardly. Where the hell is Chad and the tall burly figure? Did they abandon him here to perish?The rain begins drizzling and yet there is no sign of Chad's car. Lucian is torn between continuing to walk and returning to the hospital. Who knows if the boulevard ahead is safe? No one would want to walk into danger.But he also doesn't want to go back to the hospital now. He hates the scent there. He's never liked hospitals. Never.Now that he is thinking about the hospital, his mind drops to somethin
The Formidable Heir HE IS DAMN HUNGRRYYY!
Lucian has every right to be angry. He has every right to despise them. Maureen and the paramedics are not surprised that he is being this cold toward them. They know the grave of their crimes. It's not wrong to say that they are quite lucky that they are still alive. It goes on to show how kind-hearted Lucian is.They drop to their knees still clutching the door handle. They are soaked from the rain, but they don't seem to care. They must have a motive."Please, Mr. Wood, we acted out of ignorance. The mistake has already been done and we've been punished. But we seek your forgiveness and hope that if our paths ever cross in the future, you wouldn't judge us for our past. Please all we want is your forgiveness. Please, Mr. Wood!" Maureen bows face flat on the wet boulevard and cries out."Miss Maureen is right, Sir. All we want is your forgiveness.""Yes, please forgive us. We know you've done enough by letting us live even after all we did and said to you. But please forgive us. Plea

SO EAGER TO GRANT YOUR WISH!
Perhaps he believes as far as he pushed down his ego and begged, he would undoubtedly be forgiven. After all, Lucian is a man who appears to be easily moved by apologies, regardless if they were genuine or not.But he had got it all wrong this time as Lucian merely scoffs as soon as he finishes putting up the forgive me drama and retorts,"Fancy you kneeling there and yelling I shouldn't do this when you brought it upon yourself. Hah! I've been patient enough with you, but I see you might be taking my benevolence for weakness and dismissing me as a pushover you can snap at and curse whenever you want. "As a result, I might pardon others as they didn't concur or refute you when you said what you said, but I would never pardon you! "Since you've finally succeeded to cross my bottom line, you might as well bear the consequences! Only after you've suffered that would you realize how ruthless I am as a person and know that I'm no pushover!"He sways his gaze to Chester. "Keep away from

I'M SORRY!
With each word Lucian says, Cole and his brothers feel a pang in their chests that by the time he is done talking, their chests can't help but begin aching. Simultaneously, their brows crinkle and their face contort in discomfort. This is indeed what they planned to do. They'd suffered so much just because of the useless little girl and her boyfriend.Obviously, there was no way they would have let that lying down. It was just as Lucian said, they'd silently planned in their hearts to seek revenge against him later because they had to verify his identity first but would go ahead to kill the little girl and her boyfriend immediately since they already know their statuses. Like, they had not been planning to let that revenge-seeking cross today.They've always loved serving their revenge hot. But what they never expected is that Lucian will easily figure out their untold plans. A plan they had not even discussed amongst themselves but harbored only in their respective hearts. They

ISN'T THAT RIGHT?
'My sister,' as those simple yet powerful words leave Lucian's lips and infiltrate the little girl's eardrums, an overwhelming sensation course through her veins, and her eyes well up with tears. She doesn't know why, but hearing Lucian refer to her as his sister makes her so aroused and emotional.Maybe because she never had a big brother, let alone one who would stand up for her so selflessly. What aggravates her emotions even more is the fact that Lucian knows nothing about her. Like, he has never met her before yet he is so willing to go to the ends of the world for her. The knowledge that she now has a stranger as a big brother and a powerful one at that is quite weird yet so overwhelming and soothing."Thank you, thank you so much," she can't help but express her heartfelt gratitude. "I'm really grateful!" Her eyes sparkle and she pouts, looking much like a pouting kitten.Lucian is instantly overwhelmed with the strong urge to laugh as the little girl is so amusing right now w
- The Formidable Heir
DO I NEED TO TEACH YOU?!
Callum's brows furrow and his face contort in displeasure. At this moment, he seemingly appears to be both perplexed and displeased. According to what the little girl said, she accepted his apologies. He is sure he heard that right, so why should he apologize to her again, or could it be that the girl was merely being sarcastic?But it doesn't seem that way. In that case, that can only mean she meant it and that Lucian is the one who is twisting her words for whatever reason. An acid taste creeps into his tongue and he clenches his fists.Since Lucian now calls the shots, he must be doing it on purpose to trample on his ego and shatter it if possible.His nose flares up in rage and he furiously turns, seemingly as if he wants to pick a fight with him, but as his gaze lands on Rome and Chester's murderous faces, a chill runs down his spine and he jerks twice as if he had been electrocuted."I-""You are twisting my words!" Before he can say anything, the little girl says helplessly an
- The Formidable Heir
APPEARS YOU WANT TO DIE!
The little girl is gaping at Callum as if she is seeing him for the first time and her heart is thumping so strongly, loudly, and quickly, a cloudburst of blood surging through her veins in tides upon tides. Who would have guessed that Callum, one of the burly figures who seemed so powerful and tyrannical to her would be reduced to this?She is so stunned at the sudden twist in events that her jaw is practically dropping to the floor, and she doesn't in the slightest know how to handle it. Regardless, she is just a pauper who has spent her entire life in the slums and is at the bottom of society. As a result, her self-esteem has taken a significant hit, plummeting to an all-time low. And this has had so many negative effects on her, one of which is the fact that she has, over the years, grown accustomed to being the one begging others, and with the exception of her boyfriend, who begs her occasionally when he offends her, no one else has ever begged her. One could imagine just how bi

I'M SORRY!
"That's very easy," Lucian grins darkly. "Don't they like to fuck anything in a skirt? We can as well have them try something new!" "Something like what, My Lord?" Rome doesn't even let a second pass as he quickly asks, his eyes gleaming with so much curiosity in them."Something like fucking the same gender!" Lucian sneers and passes his tongue over his lower lip, exuding a sinister aura."Wow!" Rome gasps and an ecstatic smile breaks out on his face. "You sure deserve to be My Lord!" He proclaims with so much reverence, admiration, and pride in his voice and bows 90°. Yes, this is the formidable Python Lord he has pledged to serve for the rest of his life! He sure lives up to his name!"I have no doubt that this is a nice blood-rising plan, My Lord, but there are no new guys here, so even if that was possible, who would they lay with?" Chester twists his brows disconcertingly as he implores, seemingly not that enthusiastic yet."How can you be so slow-witted?" Lucian frowns. "Do the

BUT HOW DO WE ACHIEVE IT?
"Such a bunch of cowards!" Rome hisses, glaring disdainfully at Cole and his brothers. "For experts with such murderous auras, I assumed you guys would be at least interesting and hard nuts to crack but turns out you three are so pathetic and a disgrace to your expertise! You don't deserve to be called experts at all as you are just a useless bunch of scared mice! "Gosh, you three might be the death of me if I don't take time because you infuriate me to no end!" Rome is so provoked that his babbling spirit suddenly takes over him and he loses rationality and begins babbling and babbling at the top of his lungs, his eyes bloodshot and his fists clenched so tightly that they now bright red and might start bleeding anytime soon if he doesn't control his rage and loosen up."Buddy," seeing this, Chester doesn't waste a second as he smacks him on the head, yelling, "Earth to me!"Rome shudders violently, almost dropping to the floor, but Chester is fast to catch him and steady him. "This

WITHIN AN INCH OF THEIR LIVES
"But I've already been struck before," before Carl and Callum can bring themselves to say anything, Cole, who had assumed he wouldn't be included in the beating since he has already been struck by Rome and suffered a vital blow, says in a barely audible whisper, his voice full of so much reverence and his face flustered.It's not that he respects Lucian, or fears him, nah, not at all. To him, Lucian is still a lad who doesn't deserve his respect. So what if he might be an heir to a top-tier family? Does he have what it takes to command respect from a man of his skills?Hmph! He's just a fragile heir who only has his family to rely on, and without them, he is nothing. He has never taken all these heirs seriously because the majority of them are utterly useless and incompetent. They can't even fight themselves out of danger and would always depend on their guards.Their very existence irritates him and as such his reverence towards Lucian just now is only because of Rome and Chester at h
