The Resurgence Of The Lost Heir Chapter 133 His Sucden visit.
Jerome arrived at the office early in the morning, before any of the other employees. He asked the security guard on duty to keep his arrival a secret. He went straight to his office and began reviewing the documents that had accumulated while he was away. As he worked, he began to wonder how the employees had performed during his absence. So, he decided to sneak into the control room to observe them.When Jerome entered the control room, he was shocked to see that all the workers were asleep. None of them were on duty, and they were completely oblivious to his presence. He stared at them in disbelief, his eyes cold and unforgiving. No one could guess what he was thinking as he silently observed the scene. Without waking them, he took out his phone and started recording a video of the sleeping workers. Then, he turned his attention to the security footage. He watched in frustration as the hours ticked by and no one arrived for the morning shift.As Jerome stood there, his eyes cold an
The Resurgence Of The Lost Heir Chapter 134 Unexpected meeting
The employees huddled together, their faces wet with tears. Each of them felt a sense of regret, wishing they had not come in late. But now, it was too late to take back their actions. They knew that if they approached the boss and complained, they would be fired for their insubordination. Their carefully laid plans for their budgets were now in shambles, and they felt helpless and overwhelmed.As soon as Jerome had left the room, he instructed Bright to call an emergency meeting. The higher-ups were caught off guard by this unexpected meeting. They were used to having more time to prepare for meetings, but this time, they had no warning. Some of them were shaking with fear, not knowing what to expect. They knew that when the boss called an emergency meeting, it was never a good sign. Even though he called for an emergency when he was on leave, it wasn't as frightening as it was now.The temperature in the meeting room was noticeably colder than usual, adding to the already tense atmo
The Resurgence Of The Lost Heir Chapter 135 Were you fired
While his grandfather was known for his cunning and ruthlessness, Jerome was even more terrifying. He was like a wolf in sheep's clothing, able to strike with ruthless efficiency. His grandfather had set the standard, but Jerome had taken it to a whole new level. He was a force to be reckoned with, and the board members knew it."Miss Vivian…" Jerome began, but his words were cut short by the sound of his phone ringing. He glanced at the screen, and his expression softened into a faint smile when he saw who was calling. The board members were shocked to see their boss smiling, a sight they had never witnessed before. “Excuse me," he said and walked out.‘Er… nn!’It was unheard of for the boss to walk out of a meeting. It was even more shocking to see him smile when he was usually so stern and serious. The employees were completely baffled by his behavior. The boss always followed strict rules, and taking a phone call during a meeting was strictly forbidden. Unless it was an emergency
The Resurgence Of The Lost Heir Chapter 136 Baby Ava
"What a ridiculous notion!" James scoffed. "Nobody would dare to fire me from my father's company. I'm his son, for goodness' sake!"He said it with a tone of arrogance, as if the very idea of being fired was absurd. But underneath that bravado, a tiny seed of doubt was beginning to sprout. "Really?" the man said, his voice tinged with disgust. “Why are you running away? That's not very admirable." His words hit their mark, but James refused to be intimidated. He knew that the man was just trying to get a reaction, and he wasn't going to give him the satisfaction. Instead, he pretends as if he didn't hear him. , but it was difficult to ignore the man's taunts.James glared at the man, his irritation bubbling to the surface. "Where did you get the idea that I'm running away?" he snapped. "I'm just taking a break, for goodness' sake."He knew it was a feeble excuse, but he couldn't bring himself to admit the truth. The truth was, he was running away. He didn't want that bastard to scold

He had started again. She was very tired and wasn't in the mood today. Jerome saw her tired face; even though he wanted something, he couldn't bear looking at her weary face.

Annika smiled and looked directly at James. "Uncle, we're facing an enemy that is too strong for either of us to fight on our own," she said. "If we're going to defeat him, we'll have to work together." Her voice was calm and collected, but there was a hint of urgency in her words. She needed to act fast. She paused for a moment, waiting for James to respond. He looked back at her, his expression unreadable.James sat on the bed, dumbfounded by Annika's suggestion. "Are you kidding me?" he exclaimed, his tone incredulous. "We're competing for the same position! How could we ever work together?"Annika's composure was unshaken by James's outburst. "Uncle, can you really take on Jerome by yourself?" she asked with a hint of mockery in her voice.James's jaw clenched, but he tried to keep his cool. "I can handle myself," he retorted, his tone defensive. "I don't need your help."Annika raised an eyebrow, unconvinced. "I think you're underestimating our enemy," she said, trying to convin

Bright sat silently, waiting for Rosca to state her solution.“Be my boyfriend," Rosca blurted out.As Rosca spoke, Bright was so taken aback that he nearly dropped his drink. “Cough, cough, cough," he sputtered, choking on his beverage.Rosca's words were cut short as she noticed Bright's sudden coughing fit. Concerned, she jumped to her feet and rushed over to him, gently patting his back. "Are you okay?" she asked in a worried tone, her eyes wide with alarm.Bright patted his chest and said, “I'm alright. But hey, what did you say?" He was still in shock.Rosca didn't realize her request was too much. Did she know what she was talking about? “Have you forgotten I have a girlfriend?" Bright lifted his brow and asked."It's not that I want you to be my real boyfriend, why are you acting as if I'm about to arrest you?" Rosca clarified, her tone firm but gentle. "I just need you to act as my fake boyfriend. That's all. I'm not asking for anything more than that." She paused for a momen

The police have been working non-stop to find any traces of Jerome, but so far, there's been no progress.In the Cadell's mansion that evening, Steve and Gaius were present, visiting frequently. The old master, however, was visibly distressed, sighing every few seconds out of worry and fear."Is there anywhere else you think he might be?" the old master asked Steve and Gaius."No," Daniel replied."Sir," a guard interrupted, entering the room."The cops are here," the guard reported.Sitting on the balcony upstairs, they watched as four cops entered, and the old master stood up expectantly."Any news?" he asked."We found this... by the bridge," one of the cops said, handing over a piece of note to the old master."What is this?" the old master asked, his hands shaking."It's a supposed suicide note written by your

Steve stayed back with Gaius and his family, as well as Jasmine. Jasmine has been crying nonstop, Steve tried consoling her it seems too difficult. Gaius watched his friend suffer and feel uneasy trying to calm Jasmine down."Fuck this is frustrating!! Why does she cry too much? Does she have an ocean under her eyes?" Steve mumbled under his breath with a frown.Gaius helped him out by putting Jasmine's head on his shoulder and taking Steve's hand to stroke her hair gently. She came down shortly and Steve smiled, not long after sleep took over her and Steve positioned her well on the couch, allowing her head to sleep on his lap as he continued stroking her hair.Her beautiful face caught him and Steve began staring at her full eyebrows, nice nose, and such lovely lips too. He didn't know what was going on but his heartbeat is racing abnormally right now.Jerome had called the guys earlier and told them he would spend the night in the hospital with Eleanor since she had been attended t

Jerome's phone rang and Eleanor had to pick it up for him since he was driving.She put it on loudspeaker so that he could hear “Man. You guys are going to keep me here till night falls right?" Gauis fumed over the phone" What are you talking about? " Jerome asked innocently."Don't tell me you forgot?" Gaius said."What day is today? I don't remember today being any special or am I missing out on something?" Jerome asked clueless.“What hell with you Jerome!!! We were supposed to go and pick up my family today, can't believe you forgot," Gaius said, annoyed already."Shoot!!! I'm so sorry man. Take the lead I will join you soon I promise.

"All eyes fell on James, somehow they were happy he was here because he was the only one who could handle Stanley's madness.""Have you gone nuts? Do you want to kill your grandpa, someone who cared for you as an infant even though he has never liked existence? He did his best by giving you capital to start a new life. You wasted the money and showed your stupid face here like the burden you are, and now you want to kill him? I swear to anything you hold sacred, if you do not put that gun down, I promise you will regret it, little boy," James barked at him.In a normal circumstance, Stanley would have thrown the gun away as soon as James scolded him, but this time around, he had a smirk plastered on his face. He started laughing maniacally, showcasing his madness."You fool, do you think the little stunts you pull still affect me? Grow up, man. Those empty threats of yours don't affect me anymore. I will advise you to clear my way, or do you want to die in his place?" Stanley glared a

"How did all this happen right under my nose without my notice?" the old master said with shock."You have a good mindset, Grandpa, but it doesn't mean everybody's like you. James chose to take the part of envy. You did not choose for him, so do not blame yourself. As for Annika, she is just a green snake in the grass," Steve said, trying to calm the old man down."I knew that Annika's silence was a threat, but I never expected her to join forces with James. Nevertheless, I'm not surprised. I expected one thing or another from her," Jerome said without concern."Steve, can you tell me exactly how you managed to get them together?" the old man asked."Before grandma left this morning, I was with her in the house when James and Annika came down together, ready for work. I got suspicious, so I asked Grandma when the both of them became that close... She replied that it started not long ago, but from her speech, I could sense she was happy at the new bonding. I don't know why, but somehow

Steve went straight to Cadell's company, needing to see Jerome immediately. He had been avoiding the fight that had arisen between himself and Jerome, but he was lucky enough Eleanor had talked to Jerome on his behalf, so they were fine now."Is your boss in?" Steve asked as he chanced upon Bright, who was just coming out of the elevator."Yes, he is in. Should I inform him about your arrival? He is currently in a meeting with the company board," Bright answered."Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait for him in his office," Steve smiled.Bright escorted him to Jerome's office, offered him a glass of water, and excused himself to continue his work.James came in with Anika, rushing to the meeting room, which ended abruptly at their arrival. All the board members stared at them with disdain."Why are you just coming, Mr. James, and Miss Anika?" One of them asked with a frown."Had to take care of some personal stuff," James answered simply."What about you, Anika?" Another person

She always has a new story to tell of her youthful days.Eleanor and Jerome had left early that morning because they had work."I do not see you busy of late," the old lady asked curiously."I took a break from work; my second-in-command is taking care of everything perfectly. He contacts me anytime he has difficulties," Steve explained."Okay, I was just wondering because the Steve I know is a busy person who has no time to spare," the old lady chuckled.There was silence in the room till the old lady spoke again."Why don't you use this opportunity and find yourself a lady who will take care of you? I know everyone has been urging you to get married, and you find it irritating, but let me give you a clue on what a partner in your life can do for you. She is going to be
Chapter 183 Mia's miserable life
Jerome and Eleanor were still in Jerome's grandparents' house when a call came to Jerome's phone. He excused himself to take it; it was a call from the doctor who is taking care of Jasmine."Why are you calling me at this hour? Do you need anything?" Jerome asked."I have good news for you instead, the lady you asked me to be taking care of is awake," the doctor broke the news."Finally, I can rest. It took her long enough," Jerome breathed out."What should we do about her, Boss?" The doctor asked."We will come visit her tomorrow; it is already late," Jerome concluded."Allow her to be in the hospital for now; I will be sending someone over to bring anything she will need. Keep her for now till I come for her myself," Jerome instructed.The call ended, and he joined his family."What took you so long?" Eleanor pouted."Just business," he answered."Where are my grandparents?" Jerome asked."They said they had to go get some sleep, and also your grandfather said we should stay for the
Chapter 182 Argument
There was silence between the old man and his grandson, none of them was ready to talk. The old master was expecting his grandson to say something but the bitterness down his throat is preventing him from saying anything."Did you call me to sit here and watch you or you're going to say something," the old Master started to break the silence in the room."Why did you do that?" Jerome said simply."Can you talk in simple words? What do you mean by what you just said?" the old master replied."Why did you take such a decision and ask my friend to keep it away from me? It is not just anything this issue here, is something that involves my life. You should have at least told me about it if not for anything for the bond we share. Not for once have I taken any decision without telling you about it because I thought you were my everything and we have that kind of bond but then you proved me wrong," Jerome spoke bitterly."Why would you think that of me? You should listen to me at least, I
