The Heir's Redemption (From Disgrace to Dominance) Chapter 164
Beauty Carter was deep in thought, still reeling from the conversation that had just ended, when her office phone rang again, breaking the tense silence. The tone demanded attention; it was sharp. She hesitated a moment before taking up the phone, the calmness of her voice belying the raging storm within."Ms. Carter," the executive secretary's clipped voice uttered. "You are required in the boardroom for a senior management meeting. Please make your way there right away."Beauty felt her heart skip a beat. A meeting with senior management? She was not usually summoned to such high-level gatherings. Something was not right. She swallowed her discomfort and said, "I will be right there," before hanging up.She straightened her skirt and adjusted her suit jacket as she stood there, attempting to hide the chaos inside of her. Her mind raced as she headed toward the boardroom. Could this have anything to do with her recent choice? The timing did not seem quite right. As she neared the

In the office, Beauty reached for her phone, her hand steady even though she was running on adrenaline. She had been meaning to make this call for a while.Her fingers trembled as she dialed the unknown number from earlier. She had no doubts or hesitations now that she had gained power. The phone rang twice before the same icy voice answered."Yes?" There was something dangerous in the deep, masculine voice.Beauty leaned forward, a smile curling her lips as her voice was full of contentment. "There has been a recent development," she stated in a smooth voice. "I have been named Prime Enterprises' new HR Manager."After a moment of silence, the man on the other end chuckled softly. He exclaimed, "Well done, Beauty," with a tone of approval. "You have surpassed what I expected. I knew you were capable, but this is really amazing."Beauty was revealed in the compliments, and her confidence soared. "Thank you," she responded. "This is only the beginning." With the board now in my poss

The rumors of Beauty Carter's unexpected ascent to prominence were, in fact, catching on like wildfire throughout Lanchester. Everyone in the city was talking about the newest rumors from Prime Enterprises in the high-end boutiques, offices, and cafes.Suddenly, Beauty Carter, the previously unnoticed Assistant HR Manager, found herself thrust into the position of HR Manager for both Prime Enterprise 1 and 2. Everyone was taken aback by the news, and rumors began to circulate."Have you heard? During lunch, a woman whispered to her friend, "Beauty Carter is the new HR Manager at Prime Enterprises!""Her? The friend responded, obviously shocked, "I thought she was just some nobody in the HR department.""Well, she is now somebody. I am curious how she pulled that off.""Perhaps she has connections," the friend speculated, her voice dropping conspiratorially. "Or perhaps there is more to her than we thought.""Whatever it is, it will be interesting to see how this unfolds," the first wo

Beauty Carter approached Mr. Harrington at a deliberate moment. She smiled warmly at him as she saw him in the hallway outside the boardroom."Mr. Harrington, could you please give me a moment?" she inquired.After a quick look at her, he nodded. "Obviously, Beauty. What are your thoughts?""Recently, I have noticed a few things," Beauty said, seeming hesitant to discuss things too candidly. "I do not want to go too far, but I believe you should be aware of this."Mr. Harrington frowned. "Go ahead.""Well, have you noticed any unusual delays in some of the company's projects?" Beauty asked after he hesitated. I find myself thinking that some decisions do not seem to be in line with the company's long-term objectives. "Some funds have been redirected in concerning ways."Mr. Harrington's gaze became narrowed. "What exactly are you suggesting?"Beauty responded quickly, "I am not making any direct suggestions." "I am just concerned. We all believe the president, but recently, some thing

Sebastian sat back in his chair and stared at the boardroom's shiny table, which was now empty. The meeting's tension persisted, leaving a chill in its wake akin to a storm that had passed. He was more uncomfortable than he wanted to admit about the infrequent display of candid disagreement among the board members. He was not prepared for the depth of the criticism he received from Mr. Harrington and Mrs. Langston regarding the choices he had made with the company's best interests in mind. Although Sebastian took great satisfaction in keeping things under control, it had slipped for a little while today.Concerned looks were exchanged by William Prime and Abigail as the final board member's door closed. The seriousness of what had happened hovered between them like an unanswered question at first, and neither of them said anything.It was William who broke the silence first. His voice was low and reflective as he said, "I have never seen the board this divided. Not since the early d

Nothing much had changed from the previous day in the Prime Enterprise. Beauty was seated in her workspace. She was aware that the most effective way to undermine Sebastian would be to attack his credibility. She composed a plan that would sow doubt throughout the company that not even Sebastian could pull it up as her fingers danced across the keyboard.Beauty reclined in her chair, content with the design she had created. But she knew that she would need assistance to carry out this plan. She required a skilled individual who could produce a forged document that would be unquestionably authentic. She grabbed her phone and flipped through her contacts until she came across the name she was searching for."Jacob, it is Beauty," she said in a calm, steady voice. "I need you to do a job. I need you to create a document that has the potential to destroy a man's career, a man who has been in power for far too long."Jacob, a shadowy character known for taking on the grubby tasks that ot

Sebastian's confusion and anger clouded his judgment, but he knew he had to defend himself. How on earth could this have occurred? Who was responsible for this? And how could he prove his innocence when the evidence seemed overwhelming?"I assure you," Sebastian said, his voice steadying as he regained his composure, "these accusations are false. Someone is attempting to undermine my position, and I intend to investigate it."However, he could sense the doubts forming in the board members' minds even as he was speaking. Regaining their trust would be difficult, as the damage had already been done.***Beauty looked out at the cityscape from her office chair with a glass of wine in her hand. Daniel had sent her a message verifying that the papers had been distributed per her instructions. It happened so quickly. A satisfied smirk appeared on her lips as she imagined the chaos at Prime Enterprises.With everything going according to plan, Sebastian found himself on the defensive and fra

In the Prime family mansion, Sebastian was by himself in his office. Usually the mansion's office gave him a sense of dominance and control, but today it felt like a cage. It felt like the walls were closing in on him, as though they were planning a move to hinder him. His mind raced, swinging between bewilderment, rage, and a nagging paranoia. Who would have thought up such a clever scheme to harm him?He reclined in his leather chair and gazed at the elaborate ceiling. He could not get rid of the impression that the enemy was someone he knew well, someone who was too familiar with Prime Enterprises' inner workings. Gray Shelf was the only option. The name chilled him to the bone. Gray had always been a shadowy figure, lurking on the outskirts of corporate transactions and never fully revealing his hand. Sebastian had previously clashed with him, and he was aware that the man was capable of ruthless, calculated actions."Gray Shelf," Sebastian murmured to himself, his voice low and

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
