The Heir's Redemption (From Disgrace to Dominance) Chapter 151
Tears streaked her vision as she read the directions. They had even got the lie ready for her. If she simply signed it, Sebastian's life and career would be irreparably damaged.What option did she have, though? Her past would be exposed for everyone to see if she disobeyed. Everything would be lost for her: her freedom, her reputation, and her work. If she did this, though, could she live with herself?***Abigail followed instructions and showed up early at the office the following morning. She avoided making eye contact with everyone she passed and moved through the building like a ghost. With each step, her heart felt like a lead weight in her chest, weighing her down.Her hand trembled so badly as she got to HR that she had to brace herself against the wall before she could even get to the door handle. Once again, she hesitated as the room beyond was excessively silent. However, her phone began to buzz in her pocket. The reminder.She forced open the door after taking a deep bre

The HR manager nodded, shutting the document and looking directly at him once more. "Mr. President, I understand that this is challenging, but we must adhere to protocol. You might be asked to temporarily resign until the issue is resolved while an investigation is underway.As Sebastian tried to take in what he was hearing, his mouth moved back and forth. This was ridiculous. There had never been anything even slightly improper between him and Abigail, they had always maintained a professional relationship. Why would she make such a statement?"I would like to talk to her. Can I?" With a rough voice, he asked.The manager of HR shook her head. Mr. President, I am afraid that would not be appropriate. This is something we have to tackle by the book. I advise you to fully assist with the investigation. If you are innocent, the facts will be revealed.Sebastian did not even hear her. His thoughts were racing, going over every conversation he would ever had with Abigail in an attempt to

‘I can not believe this is happening to me.’Sebastian’s eyes were fixed on the ceiling of his office, the faint hum of the air conditioning doing little to calm the storm in his mind. The ticking of the wall clock had become louder, a rhythmic reminder of the time slipping away, each second a ticking bomb. As he prepared to step aside from his position temporarily, he couldn't shake the nagging feeling that something was terribly wrong. Abigail's sudden betrayal felt out of character, too orchestrated to be a simple act of malice. There had to be more to this, he was sure of it.He pushed himself up from his chair, his body heavy with the weight of uncertainty. Grabbing his phone, he paced the length of his office, his fingers hovering over Abigail’s contact. He had already left a voicemail, yet the silence “She’s hiding something.” He muttered under his breath. The conviction in his voice was laced with desperation. He needed answers, but more importantly, he needed to know what w

William Prime walked through the corridors with deliberate calm, but his mind was racing beneath his composed exterior. The previous night had been restless, and he did not feel comfortable with the idea of Abigail betraying Sebastian. She was a devoted employee who showed him respect for his nephew and was loyal to the company. Something was off, and it was bothering him like an itch that would not go away. He had to see for himself what was truly going on.William watched Abigail closely as the day went on, waiting for the ideal opportunity. When Abigail left her office for lunch at around noon, he knew that his patience had paid off. She moved sluggishly, as if she were carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders, her gaze downcast and her mind clearly elsewhere. William seized the chance.He slipped into her office and quietly closed the door behind him, his heart pounding in his chest. His eyes scanned the room before settling on the phone on her desk. He paused for a mome

Sitting in her office was Abigail. As her thoughts spiraled, the room seemed smaller, with the walls closing in. She kept feeling as though time was running out. Her thoughts were still filled with the demands of the blackmailer, but there was also William. His earlier words lingered in her mind, a lifeline she wanted so much to hold onto. She felt more and more compelled to confide in him because he had given her an escape route. She had to tell him!She moved in the direction of the door, reaching for the handle, but her phone rang and stopped her cold. With her blood growing cold, Abigail gazed at the phone as though it were a poisonous snake. The caller ID was disabled. She hesitated, feeling a knot in her stomach tighten because she knew exactly who it was.When she lifted the phone and put it to her ear, her hand shook. The person on the other end had a detached, emotionless, and cold voice."Abigail, are you heading somewhere?" She shivered at the blackmailer's voice because it

With each breath she took, the threats from the blackmailer felt like chains around her neck. But now, even as she entered William's office, she was resolved to break free from those bonds, if only slightly.William's expression softened as he looked up from his desk and saw her. "Abigail." He said, standing up, "Please, sit down."After a brief moment of hesitation, she moved to the chair across from his desk. She sat down and tried to steady her hands by clasping them together. William observed her intently, perceiving her inner struggle."I appreciate that you met me." William spoke first, his tone soothing and collected. "I want you to know that you are not alone in this; I know it has been tough for you. We will deal with whatever comes up together."Abigail looked down at her hands, tears brimming in her eyes. "Sir," she started, her voice barely above a whisper, "I need to tell you something… something I should have told you a long time ago."William leaned closer, giving her h

After speaking with William, Abigail was more determined than ever. Every step she took was no longer met with the chilling grip of fear. She finally had a strong ally who could handle whatever came her way.As she arrived at her office, her phone buzzed and she recognized the name on the screen even though it was an unknown number.She answered after a brief moment of hesitation, her voice firm against the anxiety that tried to seep in. "What is it that you want?!”The blackmailer's voice was cold, calculated, and threatening. "You did not speak to the press, Abigail. You ignored my demand to expose Sebastian. Unwise decision."Abigail clenched her fist, her knuckles turning white as she struggled to maintain her voice. "I am done with your games! It will not work anymore, no matter how hard you try to frighten me."There was a deep laugh coming from the other end of the line. "You believe that you are safe because William Prime is on your side, right? Abigail, I have your secrets. I

Seated in the Prime family mansion's office, Sebastian's attention was fixed on the developing situation, and his mind was constantly buzzing with ideas. He was aware that they were almost done finding the blackmailer, and the excitement was eating away at him like a vicious beast.Just as Sebastian's thoughts began to drift toward the next steps, he was drawn to the sound of approaching footsteps. With a determined yet urgent expression, he looked up as Anthony walked into the room. Anthony walked up to the desk with a thick manila folder in his hands, not waiting for an invitation.Anthony spoke quietly but firmly, "Boss, I have what we need."Sebastian sat up straight, his eyes narrowing as he focused on the folder. "Are you certain?" His tone was measured as he asked, showing no signs of internal impatience.Anthony firmly nodded. "I have evidence to support my claim that Abigail is being blackmailed by Jonathan Page, our HR director. After some time, everything came together.”H

As Sebastian, Abigail, and William Prime left Prime Enterprise and entered the government building that housed the Director General's office, the tension was evident. The imposing tower served as a stark reminder of the power housed within. But they were all unwavering in their determination. There was nothing that would stop them from seeking answers.Clearly taken aback by their unexpected arrival, the front desk receptionist asked them to wait while she verified their meeting. They spoke briefly over the intercom, and then she pointed to two guards standing at a door further inside the structure."The Director General is expecting you," she announced nervously.The guards unlocked the doors and ushered them down a long corridor lined with pictures of former officials. Their resolve to face the man behind the questionable order echoed in every step of the seemingly endless walk. They finally came to a big oak door. After knocking twice, the guards forced it open, exposing the Dire

After hanging up the phone with Anthony, Sebastian sat still in his chair for a while, his thoughts racing with incredulity and frustration. Although there was a lot of tension in his office, he did not waste any time moping. He got up from his chair, grabbed his office phone, and called William Prime's extension. "Uncle William, please come to my office right away," Sebastian said in a stern and demanding tone. He hung up without waiting for a response, then dialed Abigail. "Abigail, please meet me in my office now. It is about the Nike lawsuit and the commissioner." --- In a matter of minutes, William Prime infiltrated Sebastian's office with a worried expression in place of his customary composure. Abigail trailed closely behind, her face displaying a mix of interest and anxiety. Although he was still standing and pacing close to his desk, Sebastian motioned for them to sit down. "I just got off the phone with Anthony," he said, his voice tight. "He told me that the

As he tapped on the holding cell's metal bars, the officer stared at Cindy, Romy, and Senior Nike. "You might want to hear this," he said in a casual yet excited tone. Senior Nike looked up from his seat, his face tired but intrigued. Cindy and Romy looked at each other, their faces hopeful but tense."So, what is it?" Senior Nike inquired, his voice steady despite the weight of their recent ordeal.The officer was holding up a phone. “Miss Angelina's work has been going above and beyond. The application for bail has been filed. Although it is not yet complete, it is a positive step.”As the words took hold, there was a brief pause in conversation. After that, the three felt a wave of relief as though a switch had been flipped. For the first time since their arrest, Senior Nike's stern manner softened as he exhaled deeply. Romy smiled with a mix of surprise and delight, and Cindy's face brightened as she clapped her hands together."We are leaving this place," Cindy declared, her vo

Greene unhappiness was unhidden, as an overwhelming sense of failure pervaded the air as Greene and his group filed out of Gray's deserted hideout. As the group left the ramshackle building, the sun was sinking, illuminating the streets with a grim orange tint. As they returned to the black SUVs parked a few meters away, the only sound they heard was the crunch of their boots on gravel. Greene continued walking forward, his thoughts racing with frustration and unresolved issues. Once more, Gray had escaped their grasp, and this time it felt intimate. He believed that the timing was ideal and the mission was flawless. Someone had told him, and Greene could not get rid of the suspicion that the system itself was the source of the betrayal. "Back to the station," Greene said curtly as he climbed into the front passenger seat of the leading vehicle. Parker cautiously glanced at him as he slid into the driver's seat, but remained silent. His eyes were fixed on the road ahead, his jaw

In her office, Angelina’s phone rang. She picked it up immediately, recognizing her cousin’s number.“It’s done,” the Director General said in a low voice. “The commissioner has agreed to submit a request for bail, though it’s far from certain that the court will approve it.”A wave of relief washed over Angelina, but she knew better than to celebrate prematurely. “Thank you, cousin. I know this wasn’t easy.”“Just remember, Angelina,” he warned, “this could backfire on both of us. If the Nikes don’t show up for even a single hearing, we’ll be implicated in their escape, and the fallout will be devastating.”She nodded, though he couldn’t see her. “I understand. I’ll make sure they know the gravity of the situation. They won’t risk it.”As she hung up, Angelina sat back, her mind racing with the next steps. She was painfully aware of how high the stakes had risen, but she was determined to see this through. She dialed the Nikes, instructing them to be prepared for the bail hearing and

Angelina paced in her office, her mind spinning with possibilities. She knew the stakes were sky-high, and any chance she had to protect the Nikes was slipping away. Her only option now was to secure a bail for them, if only to keep their case out of the public eye for a little longer. Taking a deep breath, she dialed her cousin, the Director General, her fingers tightening around the phone as it rang.He answered after a few rings, his voice as calm and steady as ever. “Angelina, what is it now?”“Cousin,” she began, her voice steady but with an underlying urgency, “I need you to do something else for me. I know it’s a lot to ask, but please consider it.”He paused, as if bracing himself. “Go on.”“I need you to arrange bail for the Nike family,” she said, every word carefully measured. “If they’re kept in custody, their reputation will be tarnished beyond repair. Their businesses, their livelihoods, will crumble before they’ve even had a chance to defend themselves.”The Director Ge

Greene and his group charged into Gray's hiding place, braced for battle, their movements coordinated and soundless as they broke through the door and spread out. There was a strange stillness in the air, like the calm after a storm, and the room was oppressively dimly lit. They moved quickly, checking corners, staying vigilant, and keeping their weapons at the ready, but with every second that went by, the team felt more and more uneasy. Greene quickly realized that Gray was not present.Greene straightened, his jaw clenched in frustration as he looked around. He had thought Gray would be in the shadows, huddled in a corner, about to run. Rather, the space was lifeless, frigid, and empty, as though Gray had departed long before they did. Some papers were strewn about, a chair was overturned, and there was a slight smell of cigarette smoke, all evidence of hurried packing. He had definitely been here recently, but he had left before they could apprehend him.Greene took out his phon

Gray's pulse accelerated as he gazed at his phone, his fingers clenched so tightly that his knuckles went white. He was taken aback by his private investigator's news, and a cold shiver went down his spine. He had been hoping for positive news, perhaps even proof that his adversaries were losing sight of him. Rather, it was a shock to learn that Elliot had given the special unit team a lead."Are you sure about this?" Gray demanded, attempting to maintain composure in spite of his growing panic. "To what extent do they know?"In order to emphasize the gravity of the situation, the investigator's voice was tense. "From what we can tell, sir, they are getting closer to where you are. Elliot's tip appears to be specific enough to give them a ballpark estimate of your location. The team has already mobilized and is probably currently on their way. There is not much time for you."Gray's thoughts were racing as he weighed his options, and his eyes were darting around the room. His hiding

As the day went on, Greene walked around the dark precinct office, reviewing all of the things he had said to Eliot. Despite his natural tendency to exercise caution, Greene was aware that Eliot's assistance might be crucial to destroying Gray ShelfHe looked down at the screen as the phone in his hand suddenly vibrated. An unknown number. Greene answered, bracing himself as his heart began to race a bit."This is Detective Greene," he stated firmly."Detective," Eliot replied, maintaining the same guarded tone as before. "I have given it some thought. If you want my assistance with Gray, I have some conditions."Greene gripped the phone with clenched fingers. "Go ahead."After a brief silence, Eliot spoke again in a composed yet firm tone. "First and foremost, I do not want my name on any arrest lists. When this is finished, I will walk away clean. No trials or handcuffs. Second, I need to be compensated. A million dollars should be enough to cover the costs of risking my life. Fina
