The Heir's Redemption; Leonid Triumphs Over wealth CHAPTER 28
Leonid was trying very hard to control the anger that was building in him toward the man in front of him. The urge to punch the man in the face was so strong. The only thing that was holding Thompson back from hitting him was the thought of killing someone. He did not want to slam his fist into Thompson's face. He might do that, and Thompson might not be alive to face the consequences of what he had done.Even though he wanted to grant Thompson's death, it wasn't going to be an easy one. He had to suffer slowly for the pain he had caused him. He glanced at the man in front of him, who was trembling slightly."Oh perfect Thompson is scared of poor Leonid. I never knew I was someone to be scared of." Leonid taunted. "What if I show you that there's more Shelby's Vanderbilt blood running through my veins? How would you like that?"Thompson trembled and braced himself for what was going to happen next. Instead of throwing a punch in Thompson's face, Leonid retreated and went to stand besi

The bar was blasting with loud music, and Shelby led Leonid towards the stairs. Leonid glanced around the place; the room lights were dim, a mixture of lurole and blue.Strippers were everywhere, and a really cute brunette was doing the pole dance in the middle of the bar. As if she knew he was looking, she looked at him, offered him a smile, and continued to dance."Come along." Shelby said. "There is someone who has been waiting for you. I will introduce you to him when we get there."Leonid looked away from the club and headed up the stairs with his father. His father climbed the stairs fast and skillfully, and Leonid found himself repeating what his father had done. Shelby took a turn to the right as they were done climbing the stairs."Who am I going to meet?" Leonid asked, falling in step with his father. "I thought I mentioned not meeting anyone."Shelby glanced at him over his shoulders and said, "Yes, I know, but it's important for you to meet him."Leonid didn't respond unti

He smiled at Viktor, who was looking back at him."You know, when we were little, even though I was a year older, I had always looked up to you except for the day, of course, when you punched me in the tummy."Leonid's smile didn't flatter. "I don't know why you remembered that day. I had forgotten about it until you reminded me.""Easy for you to say." Viktor shrugged. "I had a belly ache throughout.""That's why you couldn't forget?""Sure, and the old man right there also didn't forget about it.""Who's an old man?" Shelby asked. Viktor bit his lips. "Come on, Leonid, let me show you around the bar, including some cute ladies.""I am married." He answered. "My wife is waiting for me to get home.""I totally forgot; it took me by surprise when I found out you were married. You're still too young, although I was relieved when you had no kids.""Why is that?""I have my reasons." He paused, then glanced at Shelby. "Have you told him about the Crimson yet?""Not yet, Rizzo. I can't im

When Leonid arrived home the next morning, Amelia had already dressed up for work. She was putting on a white shirt, long black pants, and a black suit jacket to match. She was eating at dinner when he met her."You said you would be home yesterday but turned up today." She scolded. "Well you can be by yourself today, I ma heading to work and tell does stupid men to let me leave." She glanced at her wristwatch. "I am late, and all they could think of was a stupid rule."Leonid took his seat beside her and picked up a plate. He was about to scoop food for himself when she hit him in the hand with her spoon."Don't you dare touch it!" She yelled. "I made it only for myself; make yours."She seemed to be angry at him for something, and he didn't know why she was angry at him. Was it because he hadn't shown up earlier than she wanted him to?"I couldn't come home yesterday; I met a...""Save me the explanation; just tell your men to let me go.""No." He shook his head. "Listen to me, and

It didn't take up to twenty minutes, and Leonid arrived at the longue. He was putting on black pants, a black shirt, and a black leather jacket. Anger and Reaper were by his sides like the fierce protective bodyguards that they are.He spotted Amelia standing near her car, with Saint and Satan standing by each other's sides. He walked up to her, and her tears came flowing again when she spotted Leonid. She ran up to him and threw her hands around him. He stroked her hair as she hugged him, looking so vulnerable."I…" "Shh," Leonid said. "You can't stay here."At the mention of you can't stay here, Satan began tiptoeing away from them slowly. He knew what was coming next and had to hide so he wouldn't be chosen."Satan!" Leonid called. "Take the young miss home."Satan froze and turned back to Leonid. "If I take the young girl home, you won't be able to recognize Roland."Leonid glanced at Saint and asked, "Did you see the man's face?"Saint glanced at Satan; Satan gave him a pleading

Elizabeth and her brother walked into the room. A sheepish smile was playing on her lips; she looked like she was happy about something. Roland, on the other hand, was trying really hard not to shiver as they walked into the room. Roland had a book in his hand and was flipping through the pages. His mind was not in the book but in all that was happening.Elizabeth walked closer to him; she placed a leg on his table as she glanced at him. Leonid peeked out of the hole from the place he was hiding. He couldn't believe that she was the nerdy Elizabeth he had seen the other day.This one was putting on a short gown that barely covered her buttocks and had really long heels on. She was not wearing her usual big eyeglasses, and her hair doesn't look like it was chewed by mice anymore. Leonid's grip on the gun tightened; she had been deceiving his wife all along.He glanced to his side and saw Saint grinning with his phone in his hand. He was recording the whole scene."Roland, did you get t

As soon as she shot the gun, anger shot her again in the hand, and the gun she was holding fell to the ground. Saint leaped into the air and pushed Leonid off before the bullet could hit him. The bullet hits the wall instead."How dare you?" Reaper roared. "There is no need to keep you alive, but don't worry, I won't be giving you an easy death."Saint got off Leonid and stood to hit his feet. They had made a terrible mistake, and facing Shelby when they met him was going to be the most terrible thing. Saint jumped to his feet and pointed the gun at Elizabeth."I should have killed you, but I won't; I will make you suffer."Reaper handed each of them a facemask and put it on himself. His gun was still pointed at them. Leonid didn't know what they were doing but wore his mask anyway. Reaper took out a little bottle from his pocket and sprayed it in the air. Seconds passed, and both siblings fell unconscious.Reaper glanced back, realizing they hadn't given any masks to Roland and Emily

Anger was about to grab a bite when Leonid walked into the dining room. Amelia was behind him, carrying a little sparkling handbag, and Viktor was beside him, pulling the box along."Mister Rizzo, when did you arrive?" Satan asked, sulking on the hot pasta he had just placed in his mouth."A couple minutes ago." Viktor answered. "I wanted to visit my brother.""Great, where are you heading with the box?" Reaper questioned."Are you traveling?" Saint asked."No, we all are." Leonid said.Anger dropped his fork and folded his arm. "Young master, I am going nowhere."Leonid glanced at him; his brows rose. "You are going to drive me to the place I am going to.""No way, I am the one to drive." Viktor said.Anger's lips curled into a smile. "Whatever.""Where are we going?" Satan asked. "A beach house? A penthouse? Across the ocean? An island?"Viktor smiled softly. "No, we are going to visit my mom, and that is better than any beach house.""What?" Saint asked. "Are we going to see the bo

"Daddy?” Lorelei placed a finger on her chin as she stared at Leonid, who was already squatting to the height of his daughter, who was hugging his legs. “Is Daddy back?” Leonard asked as he jumped off the chair in which he was sitting and hurried to the door. Amelia froze on the stairs but shrugged it off. “Stop calling the delivery man your father, Iona. Don't you know what your father looks like?” “Mom, it's really Dad.” Leonard muttered as soon as his eyes landed on Leonid. Leonid was now squatting in front of Iona, who touched his nose with her tiny finger. “Daddy is really handsome in person, Mommy; you have a great taste." “What is your name?” Leonid inquired. “Iona Francesca Giada Vanderbilt.” She replied. “Just call me Iona or Iona Vanderbilt.” “I know, right.” He ruffled her hair. He glanced at his other daughter, who was staring at him with curious eyes. As soon as their eyes met, she glanced away. “Are you really my dad?" Lorelei demanded. Leonard walked up to her
CHAPTER 152
Few months later.Leonid has left without saying a word, and since then, Amelia hasn't heard a word from him. She didn't even know how he left or when he did.Her bodyguards had stayed, but Viktor and Leonid left. She had grown to realize that he was just like his father, who leaves without saying goodbye or keeping in touch.Today was the day that she was being rushed over to the hospital. She was in labor; her husband wasn't by her side, and it hurts a lot.Her mother was back, and she stayed by her side alongside her mother-in-law. She was rushed into the delivery room while the woman stayed behind.Lilith paced to and fro as she waited for Amelia to give birth. As usual, Saint and Satan were standing along with them, but now there were four of them protecting her.After a few minutes, the doctor got out of the delivery room. He had a bright smile on his face, and as soon as the women saw him, They hurried towards the doctor.“How is my baby girl doing?” Her mother asked."Congratu

Amelia rolled in bed and picked up the book she was reading. “You are home?”“Yes,” he replied and went over to the bathroom.When he finished bathing, he dried his hair with a towel as he stepped out of the bathroom. He was already in his pajamas.Amelia lay on her back, the corner of her eyes following all of Leonid's movements. He walked towards the wardrobe and pulled it open.“Are you mad at me?” Amelia inquired. “I am sorry for going there without informing you. I just wanted to deal with her myself; she tried to hurt my baby, and I couldn't just let her get away.”She got off the bed and approached him. “Are you still mad at me?”He shook his head. “I am mad at you for going there and risking your life, but I am okay with the fact that you didn't go alone.”Amelia peered at him. It seemed that he didn't know that she abandoned Satan to drive the car.“It won't happen again,” Amelia assured him. “I won't risk my life anymore, and I have something to ask too.”“Don't try to chang

“I knew that we shouldn't have come with him!” Rose grunted as she aimed her gun at him. “Who told you to shoot all of them and leave us with none?”Satan was dumbfounded; it wasn't his fault they were too slow to shoot. Meira saw it as an opportunity to get away from them, so she began walking away.The direction of Rose and Amelia's gun shifted, and they glared at the woman who was trying to get away. They shot her on each of her legs, and she lost balance and fell over.“Who said you could leave?” Rose demanded as she walked over to Meira.Meira began crawling on the floor as she tried to get away. Rose loomed over Meira. Amelia tossed her gun to Satan, who caught it. He didn't want to waste any more time there, so he aimed the gun at Meira's head. Before anyone could stop him, he shot her in the head, startling Rose.Turning her head, she aimed the gun at Satan's head, her eyes darkening in fury. “How dare you kill her when she hasn't told you to do that?" She barked. “Death is an

He got outside the hotel only to bump into Saint on the way. Without glancing at Saint, he shoved him and headed for their car packed in the parking lot next to the restaurant.“Boss, wait up!” Saint yelled as he hurried after Leonid.As soon as Leonid hopped into the car, Saint managed to get into the car before Leonid slammed his legs on the pedal. He hastily reversed, throwing Saint off balance.Saint was still trying to slam the door shut when he fell over and hit his head against the seat. The car bumped into another car that was parked next to them, and the car alarm went off.“Boss.” Saint called, but Leonid was already out of the parking lot and already hitting the road.Satan held the seat as Leonid drove at full speed. Grabbing his phone, Leonid called Sean, who answered the phone on the first ring. He placed his phone on his leg, with it on the loudspeaker.“Track the location of Amelia Harrington Vanderbilt and feed the GPS into my car.”“On it, boss.” Sean replied.It did

The second man froze, realizing there was no escape. Saint calmly approached him, his expression unwavering.“Looking for someone?” Saint asked with a sly grin on his face.The man stammered, “I... I was just...”“Save the excuses. You're not leaving until you spill everything about the plan,” Saint demanded, his eyes piercing through the man.The man fell to his knees, his hands shivering. “I was only sent to kidnap your young miss and take her to a quiet warehouse where a woman would be waiting.”“Good boy.” Saint raised his legs and slammed his boot against the man's face.His nose broke, with blood spurting out of his nose. The man fell over on his back.“I will let you off this time.” Saint muttered as he headed for the door.The corners of his eyes were watching his sides. The man got up to his feet and began walking closer to Saint.“Thank you for letting me off.” The man muttered as he reached for the knife that he had on him.Saint came to a halt, his high senses coming in ha
CHAPTER 147
The hours of the movie were long gone, and Leonid was cracking his knuckles as they made their way to their car. Amelia held an ice cream in her hand and was grinning from ear to ear.Rose and the S twins also held ice cream in their hands. Rose was eating hers, but those men were only looking at theirs.Handing both their ice creams to Rose, they gestured with their eyes for her to eat them too.“You could have just said that you didn't want it,” Rose told them.They couldn't; of course, Amelia didn't even ask them before she bought theirs, and it was going to be rude for them not to accept it.“Where are we having dinner next?” Amelia inquired as she glanced at Leonid. “You look pale.”He smiled at her; his appearance was already looking better after they left the cinema. The movie was too long but quite enjoyable.“I know a restaurant to take you.’’ He replied. “You also have to be alert; Hannah's father is going to drug us at the restaurant. You aren't going to eat a thing; I will
CHAPTER 146
“What was that? He wants Meira to kill me."Amelia demanded. “What about you letting him get me? I have to deal with one-hand girls by myself. I had been quiet earlier.”“You are pregnant,” Leonid reminded her. “You can't stress yourself too much, and I can't let her get to you.”Glancing back at Rose, Amelia nodded her head. Rose picked up a laptop that was next to her and began typing on it.“I know about that.” She turned her head to look at Leonid. “I can't just let them classify me as weak, and since they are after my husband too, I just can't let them get away with it.”“But…”“Meira has a one-sided love for Hannah, and they are only using her to get to you and me.”“I can't let you go. After our appointment with the doctor, we will have dinner at a restaurant and pretend to be drugged. Rose and Satan would send you home, and I will know what to do next.”“No,” Amelia shook her head. “What if it doesn't work out?”“Don't you trust me?”“I do, but..."“No one is going to take me
CHAPTER 145
“Dad, who the hell did you bring home?” Jade demanded. “Isn't that a fan of Hannah?”Terry crossed his legs as he took his seat. He looked away to avoid his son's question.“Why did you let her into the house? Why is her arm like that?”“A friend of Amelia Harrington broke her hand and left her poisoned by her own knife.”“And you brought her home?!” He bawled. “For what? She is useless to you if you want to set your daughter up with Leonid.”Terry shook his head. “She isn't.”“Then what? What can she do to help your plan?”“She can get rid of that woman.”“Who?”“She can get rid of Amelia Harrington.” Terry replied. “I just need to get Amelia alone, and it's all settled. She is just a weak woman, and it would be easier to kill her when she is alone.”Jade didn't look surprised at his father's words. “You want to take her husband and still want to kill her?”“Not only that. I have sent people to the asylum to get Hannah out. I am only going to know when they are going to go out for di
