The Ordained Heir Chapter 14
Alexander left the police station with the army convoy before and behind his Bentley. A good distance away, the convoy stopped and Brad had to hit the brakes too. The general got out of the vehicle and walked to Alexander who was still in the backseat. Alexander wound down the window and General Samuel bowed to him. "I was very surprised when Brad told me that the young master had returned, I never would have guessed it'd be true," he said. "I'm back," Alexander replied and Samuel nodded solemnly, "Your father was the greatest man in the city and I was pleased to serve him. Now that you've taken over, my men and I are under your command too, please reach us if you ever run into trouble," he said and Alex nodded, "Thank you, General," hr replied and the man smiled at him as he left. The convoy slowly began to drive away until Brad was on the highway alone. "Where to, master?" Brad asked as they got to an intersection. Alexander didn't know where to go. He was tired and b

The attendant was obviously intimidated by Mr Brown because he knew who he was. He quickly moved to Alexander and asked politely to search him. Alexander smiled, he knew he had nothing on him so he stretched his hands and asked the attendant to go ahead, but unknown to him, Brown had planted something in his back pocket. "Search him thoroughly, I saw him picking up a necklace and he tried to hide it when he saw me," Mr Brown insisted when the attendant was about to leave Alexander. Still shaky, the attendant went back and searched Alexander's back pocket, he pulled out the jewelry and glared at Alexander. "So he is right, you stole something?!" He asked, eyes wide. Alexander was shocked, he did not know how the jewelry got into his pocket but one look at Mr Brown told him all he needed to know - he had just been framed. "Of course he stole something, did you think I was trying to lie against him?" Brown asked the attendant. "This is a prestigious boutique, we will not

Brown was speechless as the attendant handed back the silver card and thanked Alexander for giving him the $50,000 he promised. Even the manager was so impressed that he bowed to Alexander. "Thank you for shopping with us. We will be restocking in a short while, please, kindly drop your contact information so we can call you, sir," the man said. Alexander turned to Brown and said, "He is your good customer and he doesn't seem to like me, I don't think I should come around often." "What? Him?" The manager asked and glared at Brown, "He's just a regular customer, we can send him away if you want," he said and Brown's jaw dropped. "Please accept our humble apology for any embarrassment we have caused you today," he said respectfully. Brown turned to the manager and was about to whine when the man quickly picked up Alexander's shopping bag and helped him to the car. At the car, Brad was leaning on the trunk with his earbuds plugged in. He quickly opened the back seat as Ale

The room fell silent as he pushed open the door. The conference room was filled hu at least half a dozen people. Six pairs of eyes turned to him as he entered and the man standing at the center of head of the table shot him a glare. "Who the fuck are you?! Coming in here without permission?!" He snapped. Alexander was a little shocked at how high his voice was, he looked at the others at the table and noticed that they weren't so comfortable, each was either looking down at their book or tablet. "I must have lost my way, I was supposed to meet someone here," he replied calmly. "Who would be stupid enough to organize a meeting on the top floor when you're not a member of the executive cabinet?" The man spat. Immediately, the man who had accosted Alexander in the elevator ran in, panting after taking the flight of stairs. He wasn't very fit and he was out of breath at the slight physical exertion. "Sorry, Mr Simon, I tried to stop him but he kept marching here like a mad man,
The Ordained Heir Chapter 18
The whole room was in tense silence as Simon continued to weep and beg Alexander for forgiveness. "I had no idea that you were the heir Pa Harry was talking about, I'm so sorry," he begged. Pa Harry sneered at him, as if he read Alexander's mind, he asked, "So you disrespect people who walk on here in such a manner?" Simon shook his head but it was pointless, his actions spoke dozens. Alexander finally shook his hold off his leg and asked the guards to take him out of his sight. The men yanked Simon off the floor despite the fact that he'd been their boss just a few seconds ago. "Please...I had no idea...please," he begged but the guards didn't stop until he was outside. Turning to the conference room, he looked at the faces of all the staff and realized that they all seemed a little relieved that he was gone. Without being told, Alexander could deduce that Simon had not been the best leader in the company, they were happy that his reign was over - even the way that the gua

The Sean family tower was the largest in the best expanse of land. It was the tallest building in the whole town and one of the tallest in the city. Alexander was still marveled at the amazing structure despite it being his second time there. Harry got down from the vehicle and Alexander did so too. Brad as usual opened the door to the lobby and ushered both men inside. Alexander could not deny the fact that he was a little anxious, he had been waiting to see the Sean family council again after the first time. "Alexander, I must tell you that you did not make the brightest first impression," Harry told him warily, "I don't know how the members of the council will respond to seeing you again but I hope it will work out fine for you," he said. Alexander had a lot on his mind, he badly wanted to tell the butler that he did not care what members of the council thought about him and he wasn't concerned about his terrible first impression - especially when they considered him spe

Josiah shut the document heavily with a loud sound and slid it across the table to Alexander. Once again Harry wanted to interfere but he was beginning to feel foolish for trying to defend Alexander when he did not even look like he needed defense. Alexander picked up the document with a sense of confidence and boldness. "Is this all?" He asked. All the men on the table burst laughing, "Trust me, that is more than enough," One of the men replied. "A lot of people have never returned to the family just by trying to fulfill the trial, you are asking if it is enough? You must be kidding," Another man said with a sarcastic laugh. Josiah seemed very pleased That the men had succeeded in intimidating Alexander and making him rethink the challenge he had just accepted. "The deed is done, and for your question, Alexander, it is more than enough and you will find out soon," Josiah replied. It seemed that the meeting had only been convened just to address Alexander because imm
The Ordained Heir Chapter 21
The sky was a little cloudy as Alexander walked out of the Sean Tower. He was not bothered about all the discouraging words that the old men at the executive council had said. The trial document in hand, Alexander knew that all he had to do was find a way to tackle the trial one after the other. He was not afraid of starting his own company. All his life, Alexander was not very used to hand outs, he did all he could just to fend for himself and his ungrateful wife. And although her family was much richer than he could ever have imagined himself to be, he was not a leech or parasite That wanted to live off his in-laws. Alexander was quickly learning how to be a man, and not just a man but a man of value and power. He stepped out of the elevator proudly, he could hear the old butler's footsteps right behind him. "I think we've done this before, this is the point where you meet me after the meeting and begin to tell me everything I said wrong and how I should ask for mercy, right?
