The Heir of the Family 329 - The Deep Roots
Schneider's neck is bulged, and his face is red with rage. He really can’t stand to see someone who he considers so low under him is now acting so high with his words. But he isn’t able to pay back Frank’s arrogant words, because Chief Hopkins immediately tells him to leave. “Like he said, this is his case. You should have told him first before doing anything regarding this issue. Now would you let me have a moment to speak with Officer Frank?” “Sir!” replies Schneider short with a little nod before taking his leave. Soon after that, Chief Hopkins asks Frank Morris to close the door before he asks him about the development of his investigation. “It seems like you don’t have enough interest in this man named Victor. I mean, I know this poster is a bit too much. But come on! It’s not like we should always follow the rule to solve a case.” “Pardon me, sir!” replies Frank with so much formality before expressing his view. “I do have some interest in him. Not just about this case. I h
The Heir of the Family 330 - This Is Not Indiana
Frank only has one copy of the report file. And those cops look so intrigued to have a look at that report together. “About that orphanage,” Frank continues his story. “It is 100 % sponsored by a man named Charles Goodman.” “Goodman?” mumbles one of those cops. The thing is, there is also another person with the surname of Goodman in that old case report. There, they find a kid with the name Victor Goodman, the sole witness of the death of the two twins. “That kid, Victor Goodman, is the son of one of the twins, Lilie Emery. And there’s a record that this Lilie Emery was once married to a man named Thomas Goodman. And this Thomas Goodman is actually the sole heir of the house which is currently occupied by this man Charles Goodman.” “So, they are the same person?” asks Morgan. “You know what? Before becoming a business giant, people who were close to this Charles Goodman used to call him Charles William? And I believe the kid in that report is actually Victor William. Initially,
The Heir of the Family 331 - You Don't Deserve
Victor’s face looks so blank for a moment. And then he begins to remember some sequences of events before he enters Emma’s pharmacy store, until he recalls everything that he has experienced since he met Pablo. But that’s all he can remember.But at least, he knows that he is now in Canada, and that this is already early in 2025. But still, he feels so confused why they are in Canada. He wants to ask Emma, but then one female doctor enters the room and greets Victor with a soothing smile.“Oh, thank goodness you're awake. How do you feel, Mr. Agramonte?”“Agramonte?” mumbles Victor with a confused face.“Oh, please! Just call him Eusebio,” Emma interrupts.Victor immediately averts his attention to Emma. He becomes even more confused as to why Emma would identify him as Eusebio.
The Heir of the Family 332 - The Rejected Son-in-law
Emma notices the impression of disappointment from her sister, as if she isn’t too happy to find out her brother-in-law is just a pizza delivery man. “No, Eusebio! That story has long gone,” she interrupts. “I’ve already learned six months ago that you made a contract with Counterbrand when we were still in college.” “Eh, how did you know?” asks Victor with a bit of a confused face. Emma just ignores Victor’s confusion. She turns her face toward her sister, and shows a bit of her smug face. “Listen, chubby cheeks! My husband is a CEO of a big company in Indiana. Go check it yourself on the internet. They even have their own delivery application which has been so popular in Indiana recently. You will freak out to find how big the company is.” Victor is just silent to hear that story. And Ellie is now really checking it out on the internet via her smartphone. And immediately, her face looks so awed as she finds out how big Counterbrand’s main office building is. “Well, Eusebio! Wel
The Heir of the Family 333 - Show Some Gratitude
Sometimes, It’s not that difficult to handle rejection from a stranger. You can ignore it, and move on with your life. But it's different if you have to be faced with a situation where you have to live side by side with that stranger. You can't just ignore this kind of rejection easily. Even worse, if the stranger is the father of someone you love. Yes, it's not hard to understand that the current Victor loves Emma so dearly and honestly. Likewise with Emma, who of course is burdened by regret and guilt, still has deep feelings for Victor. It’s just that Victor doesn’t know about this regret and guilt because of his memory loss. He still isn’t so sure that he has really married Emma, except for the glimpse of memory that he has during the wedding day. And now, he is alone with Emma, in a room that looks like a room for a princess in a Disney World. “It’s so… pink? Are we going to spend the night together in this room?” asks Victor with an awkward face. Emma only puts on a sour exp
The Heir of the Family 334 - A Man's Pride
Olivia tries to reason with her husband to defend Victor. “He has gone missing for more than a month. I don’t think the company where he worked is still going to accept him after this. They could have already had a replacement for his position in the company.”“Well, he can simply tell them his story,” argues Henry. “If he was really a CEO of a big company, he should have something in him that he can use to persuade them. That’s only if he was really a CEO.”“Too bad, he only started working for them last June,” Emma interrupts. “I don’t think that’s going to be…”“Still have the dignity to talk to me?” Henry interrupts Emma with sarcasm. “After all the things you said to us before leaving this house? After having no shame asking your mom to use my money to buy him some clothes? And you still have the nerve to argue with me now?”It’s effective to make Emma choke a bit. She can no longer put any words to argue with her dad after that one. She knows that his dad is bringing up the stor
The Heir of the Family 335 - You Know How I Love You
However, Olivia keeps telling Emma to go to see Victor. She even gives her some wisdom about being a good wife.“It’s not about doubting your husband’s ability in dealing with problems in life. It’s our duty as a wife to show some support. It may not help that much. But you need to make sure that he is not feeling like he is fighting alone by himself.”It manages to make Emma fall to her deep thoughts. Indeed, this kind of wisdom is something she never thought of before. She also realizes that maybe this is one of the many things that could have saved her marriage and prevented her from asking Victor for a divorce six months ago.I shouldn't have let him fight for our marriage only by himself. I shouldn't have let Victor be the only fighter in the family. These kinds of thoughts begin to haunt her mind.However, everything is already in the past. There’s nothing she can do now, except to continue the charade as a wife while Victor hasn't regained his memory.“Emma!” Olivia shakes her
The Heir of the Family 336 - Stop Avoiding Me
Emma just pulls her blanket and covers her head. “Just leave already, like how you’d always been!”And it’s not like Henry is expecting any answer from Emma.

And as a man, Victor understands why Henry deliberately hides it from Emma.Because of this too, he reconsiders his options to accept Emma’s choice to stay there for a bit longer.
