The Lost Heir's Vendetta Chapter Sixteen
Erica went silent, she swallowed her words as her mother continued pouring her rage on her. "I'm sorry Mother.." She drawled, her voice breaking at every word she spoke but her Mother didn't give a hoot as to what was wrong with the sadness in her voice seeping through the phone."He came back yesterday, he's in his office now…" She trailed her words, dragging snorts at each word.Her mother's spirit lifted when she heard Frederick Clayton was around. She beamed through the phone. "Set a meeting with him" She harshly ordered her daughter."What?... You're joking, right? I can't do that, just set up a meeting…" She was cut short by her mother mid-sentence.Madam Doris scoffed. "Then let your husband know, set it through him."Erica sighed heavily through the phone and went silent until her mother yelled her back into reality. Her Mother's yell startled her so greatly that the phone fell from her hands onto her thighs. She picked it up and heard a raging Madam Doris over the phone. "I

Sir Frederick growled. "You deceived me, Doris…" His tone was stiff and gruff. "I selected your family because of the honor and dignity you possessed, but deceiving me this way…""Tsk…Tsk…" He sucked his teeth.Madam Doris was uneasy, she felt so uncomfortable in her seat, it felt like little pins were sticking out and piercing the shit out of her. She bowed her head from him to avoid his gaze. Even though she was scared of how he might react, it was better to let him deal with Aidan before he ruined her.Silence fell in the room and Frederick gritting and clenching his jaw could be heard until he talked finally."How could you let such a loser go scot-free to have so much power to threaten and blackmail you?" He strolled back to his cigar away from the window, picked up one, and lit it up.Madam Doris finally spoke up as the atmosphere in the room became stuffy–not because of the smoke from the cigar but because she was uneasy from Sir Frederick's aura."I'm sorry Sir, I thought he w

"Unfinished business?" Jeremy said scornfully as he growled. "What is the meaning of this Ethan," He scowled at him.Ethan stuttered and mumbled his expressions. "Let me help him out," Aidan smirked as he spoke. "He sought for…" He drawled and chuckled lightly. "He has been begging and sending emails for the past two months to invest in his company." As Aidan spoke, Jeremy's face turned sour. He furrowed his brows and looked at Ethan disdainfully. "What the hell is he talking about? If you've done this, why then did you call me over to invest?" "I made it clear to you that I want to be the only one investing" Ethan was dumbfounded as Jeremy spoke, he didn't even give him a chance to explain himself.Jeremy, after spitting furiously on Ethan, turned his gaze to Aidan. "It's obvious this idiot doesn't know where his loyalties lie." He looked over at Ethan disgustingly and continued speaking. "Well, let's settle this. How much do you want so you can back away from this company? I mean
The Lost Heir's Vendetta Chapter Nineteen
"Mom, are you okay? What happened?" Mallory asked as she stepped into her mother's bedroom, worry written all over her face. Madam Doris was lying on her bed with the doctor sitting beside her and checking her blood pressure. The lawyer stood on the balcony entrance leading out of the bedroom.Mallory rushed to her mother's side and held her arm caressing it. "You shouldn't exert yourself so much Mom, you're a doctor, you should know this better than anyone…" Mallory was talking with concern but her Mom wasn't ready for that when she cut her sentence short and wriggled her hand from her daughter's grip.She snorted and scowled at her. "Why won't I exert myself when your husband is hell-bent on ruining me? Look at him" She shifted her gaze from Mallory to Ethan who had stopped at the door entrance like some criminal who was caught red-handed. "He's been on the news these past days and not for good reasons"She turned her stare back at Mallory. "My name has been so tainted that I lost

The receptionist's lower lips trembled as his eyes stared at her. She searched his dark eyes for an ounce of pity but there were none as Aidan's remained dead, without emotions. The pleasantness he had when he came in had disappeared. She regretted her unfriendliness towards him.She patted her mouth to speak but words failed her. Aidan spun around averting his eyes from her, and faced Mr. Avangard. "I don't know how you ended up with such unruly staff but if my father is going to be investing in this place…" He smirked slightly. "Then there's no job for them here anymore.""Of course, Sir" Mr. Avangard spun to the three of them and without remorse ordered them. "You're fired! Take your stuff and leave this instant…""Wait…" Aidan drawled. "The guard was just following the orders of these two," He said pointing at the both of them. "Leave him out" He ordered. The guard bowed and thanked him before surfing to his post.Mr. Cuke's legs became wobbly from hearing the order. He had spen

"Since you're deaf, here's a list of all the personnel I want to be fired." Aidan picked up another file from the table and threw it at Ethan. It landed right on his face before falling to the ground. He looked at Aidan in scorn, his face was indifferent. He crouched to the floor level and picked up the file. "Good boy" Aidan had a sly smirk on. "Now I'm sure that won't be hard for you to handle, I expect results when I get back." He picked up his bag and phone and stepped out brushing Ethan out of the way as he did so. Ethan sank to the floor dejectedly as soon as he left, his knees were too wobbly to take the weight of his body. He buried his face into the file and let out a muffled scream. The staff all stood watching him as the door to his office was still open.Aidan got back to his office and parked in the Ackerman family's reserved parking lot. It was deeper into the parking lot. Before he even stepped out of the car, his secretary(Julia) and Mr. Milton were already standing

He got into his Bentley and banged the door. He held the steering wheel tightly and screamed to release the anger packed inside of him. The car was soundproofed and tinted, so no one could hear or even see his screams.He was brought back by a knock on his car window, he stepped down. It was one of the officers followed by Mr. Raymond."He described Kay, with the sketch, he would soon be apprehended." The police officer assured Aidan."The girls, are they okay?" Aidan drawled as he asked the officer, sympathy plastered across his face.The officer who had already turned to leave stopped and spun around to him. "They're going to be ok, thanks to you. One of them said they came here on their own accord, we've already alerted the parents." He tapped his shoulders reassuring Aidan. "Don't worry, we'll handle everything." "I'm sorry I couldn't get to her on time." Mr. Raymond said despondently. "If only I had worked faster…""You did all you could. We are going to find her" Aidan reassur

A couple of days after Sir Frederick started seeing Aidan pop up more, Aidan took over Martl group, he completely changed everything–from firing the entire staff and bringing in his own marketing group(Martl group is a marketing company) and demoting Ethan to the manager level at his former company and replacing him with someone else.Ethan's whole world crashed in on him, his wife; Mallory kept spewing on him any chance she got. He felt like he lost all he struggled to achieve over the years including his wife's respect.Mr. Benjamin was his only hope now, he was on his way to meet his nephew– Dr. Casey, as she was the one responsible for the DNA testing of Aidan and his father.

He turned around and saw Casey standing, holding a shopping bag. Adorning an all-black bodycon gown, her blonde hair flowed freely down her back. She wore a pink leather jacket to complement the floor-length bodycon gown.“What are you doing here? In these luxurious shopping parts of the City?” She asked as she strides closer to him.“She looks sexy,” Eileen said, smacking her lips and looking into her brother’s eyes with a smug grin on her face. “Wipe that smugness off!” He commanded in a hushed whisper. Eileen giggled and stood beside him.“Casey! It's been a while, I should have been the one asking you since this part isn't normally your jurisdiction.” He extended his arms and accepted the hug she brought.She looked different, not like the stern, straightforward doctor he meant almost a year ago. Her dark hair was blonde now and she was dressed in her usual business-looking outfits, but rather a casual one. It was a new look for Aidan.“I remember you.” She pointed to Eileen, wa

“Oh my God!” She jumped back and quickly deterred her eyes by covering them with her hands.“I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't know” She turned quickly and closed the door behind her.Aidan fell on her neck as he was still on top of her, buried deep inside of her. His hot breath continued down her neck as he heaved up and down, trying to find a calm pace for his panging chest. She chuckled. “Busted, no more hiding from her then.” She said and wrapped her legs around him, bringing him in the more. He turned to look at her and his expression was different as his dick became flaccid inside of her. It fell out itself even with her moving her waist herself to continue what Eileen had interrupted.“What is it?” She asked as he removed her wrapped legs and sat at the edge of the bed, using the sheets to cover his semi-hard dick. He rubbed his hands through his hair and sighed a weary sigh.“We shouldn't have done this, Eileen coming in here was a wake-up call” Erica was flabbergasted, and he

He saw Erica turn to get an eyeful of him. They both locked eyes and after what felt like forever, she left the two of them. Aidan shook his head after, he knew why she was leaving but that was low of her to bring it up at this point when Eileen just learned about the life her mother lived and how evil and heartless her birth father was. Erica always finds a way to squeeze herself in. “You know she's right” “What?” He squinted his lids and narrowed his eyes after what Eileen said broke his thoughts. But he didn't quite catch it, hence he asked again. “She has to leave.” “You know what, Eileen, enough!” He wagged his hand in an

Aidan's POVAt The Ackerman EstateA couple of weeks had passed since Jeremy’s final verdict, he was sentenced to life imprisonment, a worse punishment than the one labeled on his father. The City was in awe of the vile things that were published about how the family ran their businesses. People Jeremy had wronged, got their little bit of peace back and some money for compensation. Frederick Clayton was made to pay back the people who he wrongfully took money from the sum of 400 million dollars in total. It was a lot, even for Frederick. The authorities spared no time in bundling up their houses and taking them up as their own, leaving no stone unturned.The little left behind was given to Eileen and also surprisingly there was a trust fund with her mother's name which with the help of Aidan’s attorney, she was able to open and access for her art career.“Daddy…” Rachel exclaimed happily as she leaped out of Eileen’s side onto the bed where they both lay, while Erica sat in the vanit

Mallory’s POV “Ew. Ew! Ew!” She exclaimed as she jittered her heels across a puddle to enter the bus taking her to the prison where her mother was serving her sentence. Her mother had been leaving calls for her to come to see her, but she'd been ignoring them hoping they would go away because she didn't want to be associated with or even tied to her mother again. She finally went reluctantly when the mother told her there was something important that she needed to learn about a stack of money she kept in case of unforeseen circumstances. And being that she was flat broke, she picked up her bag and scurried to get to her mother just so she could claim the money.“Princess? Is this place too filthy for you?” One of the passengers asked as she cracked up at her.She jerked her jaw and scoffed as she found a free seat to sit down.“This is taken…” Another scooted to the free seat from the window side he sat at, frowning at her.“I don't understand…” She huffed a sigh. “How can this be t

Chapter Hundred And Five
Aidan’s POV A whole month had passed since he got Frederick and his cohorts arrested. Madam Doris was sent to jail to spend the next ten years of her pathetic life behind bars without the possibility of parole or even a retrial. Jeremy was still on trial, and this was the last day of his trial where he would be convicted of his numerous crimes. They were the most grotesque crimes ever. He was practically the enforcer of his father, no wonder the man always kept him on his side and without a leash because he carried out the most heinous crimes or got whoever would agree when he could not do it himself for him.Aidan had been going to court since their trial, not because it was necessary but to see the downfall on their faces when they were finally convicted. And boy! Did Frederick feel like he had lost a huge battle he thought he’d already won? He looked dejected like he had lost a fight with a grizzly bear he underestimated. His snares and glare did little to nothing to him as he was

Aidan’s POV The roads leading to the judge’s house were dry and flaky and carried all the dust that could last a lifetime. Although the roads were beautified with tall luxurious trees, they did little to nothing to hide the ugly of the road. No wonder she came out here to hide because no one would dare or even think about coming to the hell hole. As the cars were skidding down the dusty ass road, he received a text.“We're done Sir, taking her home now”It was from Cole, he had been receiving texts from him at every interval to know what she was doing and if the meeting she insisted on was over even though it was against his wish. He flipped his phone that he placed on the empty back seat and checked the notification. He smirked as he saw and left the phone back.The car hit a bump and he made a wince sound. The driver heard.“I'm sorry Sir, I didn't see that curve on time, this road is rough” “Just shut up and drive” He rolled his eyes and went back to perusing the stack of papers

Erica’s POVThe news of Frederick Clayton’s arrest broke through the City like wildfire. It was the talk of the whole City for anyone who cared enough to listen and everyone cared to listen, from the media, the news stations, the cafes, the streets, roads, and every corner that had people in it, talked about Clayton's downfall. It was horrendous and they ate it up like the sweetest meal ever. The videos circulating and making media rounds made everything worse. So bad that anyone who was affiliated with them had to either detach themselves or hide their head. Some even had to go as far as running away from the City just so their name was savaged from the whole saga.“We are here Ms. Erica,” Cole said to her as they got to the police station. It's been almost two weeks since the arrest of the mighty family of Emergande, her mother had already been convicted and sentenced to jail without bail for ten years and also a fine of 200 million dollars had to be paid back by her.

It was Ethan upon further look. He had suddenly parked his car right in front of Aidan’s as they were pulling out of the hospital premises. Aidan was furious at this act of his. To make matters worse, the paparazzi were right behind his car, looking for the easiest scoop of news they could grasp their hands on. “Let him in” He reluctantly said to Malcolm. This whole shit show was irritating the living daylight out of him. Malcolm did as was instructed and Ethan hopped into the backseat with no hesitation and the car pulled away, maneuvering the paparazzi.“Are you out of your damn mind?! What the fuck do you think you would achieve by doing that?! Is that Doris’s last attempt to escape the law?!” Aidan was furious. His vein throbbed as he brawled on him.Ethan cowered to the very end of the seat he sat on. He gulped down, knowing well he was wrong for even making such a useless and daring attempt. But he had to, that was the only way he could get to see his boss and ask him for a fa
