The Return Of The Billionaire's Grandson. (Their Regret) Chapter 104
Derrick stepped into the bustling headquarters of W&B Consulting, his footsteps falling in time with the hum of activity that filled the open-concept office space. The morning sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, warming the sleek, minimalist furnishings that lined the wide corridors.As Derrick approached his spacious corner office, his assistant, Tom, greeted him with a warm smile. “Good morning, Mr. Anderson. Your first meeting is with Mr. Black at 9:00 a.m., followed by a teleconference with Ms. Carter at 11:00 a.m.”Derrick exchanged pleasantries with Tom as he made his way to his desk. The office was already abuzz with activity, the sound of keyboards tapping and the low murmur of conversation creating a harmonious symphony of work.“Good morning, Mr. Derrick!” one of his junior analysts, Sarah, called out as he passed by. “Any word on the meeting with Mr. Black?”Derrick turned to her with a friendly smile. “Nothing new, Sarah. Just the usual review of last q

Derrick’s mind was flooded with memories, a storm of recollection that threatened to overwhelm him. He saw again the shadowy streets of his past, the desperate measures he’d taken to survive, the choices he’d made that had brought him to where he was today.“Karen,” he said, his voice a low rumble. “We need to stop this. Before it’s too late.”Karen’s face was a mask of concern. “What do you propose, Mr.Derrick’s eyes narrowed, his gaze intense and focused. “We need to discredit the Baxter family,” he said, his voice like a blade in the dark. “Expose them for the ruthless, underhanded operators that they are.”Karen’s eyes widened slightly, a hint of uncertainty in her voice. “How do you propose we do that, Mr. Derrick? If we go after them openly, it could backfire.”Derrick leaned forward, his expression unyielding. “We won’t go after them directly.“We’ll use their own tactics against them,” Derrick said, his voice a low, dangerous growl. “Baxter thinks he can play a game of shadow

With Karen's prompt departure, Derrick found himself in solitude, his mind grappling with the challenges ahead. The Baxter family was relentless in their pursuit of dominance, and his own legacy was at stake."This cannot be the end," he muttered under his breath, a fierce determination igniting in his eyes. "I will not let them win."He rose from his seat, pacing the length of his office, his footsteps a rhythmic beat that seemed to echo the urgency of their situation. The walls felt like they were closing in, a suffocating sensation that fueled his defiance.With each stride, Derrick's mind worked feverishly, formulating a revised strategy that would account for the missing pieces of their original plan. He could not allow a single misstep to threaten the delicate balance of their scheme, and the absence of White presented an unparalleled obstacle."Think," he said to himself, his tone commanding. "What would White do? Where would he go?"A faint glimmer of insight pierced the dark

The bunker was a formidable sight, its entrance hidden within the rocky slope of the hill. Derrick approached with caution, keeping a sharp ear out for any signs of movement or danger.As Derrick drew closer to the entrance, he saw that the metal door was slightly ajar, revealing a sliver of darkness beyond. The rust on the hinges betrayed the bunker's age, and a musty scent permeated the air.He took a deep breath, steeling himself for what was to come. With Lucky trailing cautiously behind, he slipped through the crack in the door, his gun leading the way.Inside, he found himself in a narrow, dimly lit corridor, the walls made of thick concrete. The air was stale, and every sound seemed to echo through the silence.Derrick, now with Lucky as his faithful companion, began to make the necessary arrangements for his upcoming trip. He'd come a long way from his earlier quest to bring down the Baxter family, but this new development presented a different set of challenges.With the conf

As the conference came to a close, Derrick and Tom boarded a flight back to the U.S., the weight of their conversation with Carlos still fresh in their minds. The potential deal had given Derrick a newfound sense of optimism, but he knew the real test would be in the demonstration of his technology.Upon their return, Derrick threw himself into the preparations for the demo, working around the clock to ensure that everything was flawless. He knew that Carlos’s decision could make or break his company’s future, and he wasn’t about to leave anything to chance.Finally, the day of the demo arrived, and Derrick found himself pacing nervously in the factory, his hands fidgeting at his sides. He glanced over at Tom, who gave him an encouraging nod, and then he turned his attention back to the door as it swung open, revealing Carlos and his team.“Mr. Rodriguez,” Derrick greeted, his voice steady despite his nerves. “Thank you for taking the time to come and see our facility.”Carlos’s expre

Derrick considered the suggestion for a moment, his fingers drumming against the desk. “You’re right,” he said, his expression thoughtful. “Julie’s the perfect choice. She’s observant, she’s discreet, and she has no ties to the Baxters.”Derrick nodded, his mind already turning over the possibilities. “That’s right,” he said, his voice gaining conviction. “We can use the survey as a cover. Tell Julie to keep her ears open while she’s over there. If the Baxters have been snooping around, someone will have noticed something.”Tom raised an eyebrow, a hint of admiration in his gaze. “I like it,” he said. “Julie could be our secret weapon.”Derrick’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction as the plan took shape in his mind. “We’ll need to give Julie some backup,” he said, his voice thoughtful. “Someone to handle any tech issues or logistics while she’s on the ground. And someone who can handle themselves if things get messy.”Tom nodded, his gaze darkening as he considered the potential dangers.

In an instant, the bar exploded into chaos. Glass shattered as the Baxter man opened fire, patrons screaming and diving for cover. Julie ducked behind a pool table, her heart hammering in her chest as bullets whizzed past her head.She knew she couldn’t stay there. She had to make a move.Mustering all of her courage, she bolted from behind the pool table, firing back at the Baxter man.He dodged to the side, taking cover behind a row of stools.The bar erupted in a cacophony of gunfire and shouting, the air thick with the smell of gunpowder and fear.Julie kept moving, her eyes darting around the room as she searched for an escape route. She saw a door leading to the back alley and sprinted toward it.Behind her, the Baxter man emerged from cover, firing wildly in her direction.Julie dove through the door, hitting the ground hard as the bar emptied into the alley behind her.Outside, the alley was narrow and cramped, cluttered with dumpsters and crates. Julie scrambled to her feet,

Derrick sat in his office, idly shuffling through paperwork when the phone on his desk rang. He picked it up, expecting a client or colleague, but instead heard his secretary’s voice, sounding a bit flustered: “Mr. Derrick? There’s someone here to see you…a Miss Tiffany, but she doesn’t have an appointment.”Derrick frowned, puzzled. He wasn’t expecting any visitors. However, the name Tiffany caught his attention. “Tiffany?“I see. Let her in,” Derrick responded. He wasn’t quite sure what to make of the situation, but he knew one thing: Tiffany was no ordinary visitor. She was Ruby’s best friend.A few moments later, the door opened, and there she stood. Tiffany was dressed in a tailored blazer and skirt, her long dark hair styled to perfection. She entered the room with the confidence of someone who knew exactly what she wanted. “Hello, Derrick.”The two exchanged pleasantries, each carefully considering the other’s words and body language. “It’s been a while, hasn’t it, Derrick?” Tif

Derrick watched as Tom's plane took off into the sky, feeling a mix of relief and concern. He was glad Tom was safe, but the events of the day still weighed heavily on his mind.As he drove back home, his thoughts turned over the details of the chase and the police's investigation. He couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to the story, that the kidnappers' motives went beyond just random targeting of luxury cars.But for now, he pushed those thoughts aside and focused on the present. He was just glad Tom was safe, and that their friendship had been strengthened by the ordeal.As he pulled into his driveway, Derrick let out a deep breath and tried to clear his mind. He knew the days ahead would be filled with more questions and uncertainty, but for now, he just wanted to rest and process everything that had happened.He got out of the car, walked into his house, and collapsed onto the couch, his eyes closing in exhaustion. The events of the day replayed in his mind, but he did

Tom leaned in, his voice barely above a whisper. "I've been developing a revolutionary new technology. Something that could change the game for our company...and the world."Derrick's heart raced as Tom revealed the details of his project. It was ambitious, daring, and potentially groundbreaking. The possibilities swirled in Derrick's mind like a vortex, drawing him in.As they delved deeper into the project, Derrick realized that Tom's vision was not only innovative but also risky. It challenged conventional thinking and pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible.With each passing day, Derrick found himself increasingly drawn into Tom's vision. He saw the potential for something historic, something that could leave a lasting legacy.And so, they embarked on a journey to bring Tom's vision to life. A journey that would test their courage, their wits, and their friendship.It was time for Tom to go back to Singapore.Derrick was in his car driving with Tom back to the airport
Chapter 157
As the months passed, the Singapore office continued to thrive. Tom's team was consistently meeting and exceeding their targets, and the office was becoming a hub for innovation and creativity.Derrick was thrilled with the progress and decided to visit the office to see it for himself. When he arrived, he was blown away by the energy and enthusiasm of the team."Tom, this is amazing," Derrick said, shaking Tom's hand. "You've built an incredible team here. I can feel the excitement and passion in the air."Tom smiled, feeling proud of what they had accomplished. "Thanks, Derrick. We've worked hard to build a team that shares our vision and values. And it's paid off."Derrick nodded, his eyes scanning the office. "I can see that. I'm so proud of what you've achieved here. You're not just meeting expectations, you're exceeding them."As they walked through the office, Derrick met with each team member, hearing their stories and learning about their projects. He was impressed by their t

Derrick, still in his early thirties, was bursting with energy and ideas. He had already achieved so much, but he was far from satisfied. He wanted to expand his reach, to build a business empire that would change the world.One day, over a cup of coffee, Derrick confided in his friend and mentor, Tom. "Tom, I've been thinking... I want to start more companies, outside of our current one. I want to diversify, to explore new markets and industries."Tom's eyes lit up with excitement. "That's a fantastic idea, Derrick! You have the vision and the drive to make it happen. What kind of companies are you thinking of starting?"Derrick's eyes sparkled with enthusiasm. "I'm thinking of starting a tech firm, a sustainable energy company, and a non-profit organization to support entrepreneurship in underserved communities."Tom whistled. "Wow, that's ambitious! But I know you can do it. You have a unique ability to bring people together and make things happen."Derrick grinned. "Thanks, Tom. I

As the conspirators were led away in handcuffs, Derrick's relief was short-lived. The investigation was still ongoing, and the murderer remained at large. Rachel Patel, his lawyer, reminded him that the battle was far from over."The conspirators may have been brought to justice, but the killer is still out there," she said, her eyes stern with determination. "We need to keep pushing forward until we uncover the truth."Derrick nodded, his mind racing with the possibilities. Who could have committed such a heinous crime? And why?The police investigation continued, with detectives following leads and interviewing suspects. Derrick cooperated fully, providing any information he could to help crack the case.But as the days turned into weeks, the investigation seemed to hit a dead end. The police had no new leads, no new suspects. It was as if the murderer had vanished into thin air.Derrick's frustration grew. He couldn't rest until the killer was brought to justice. He began to work c

Derrick's eyes scanned the headline on the newspaper in disbelief: "W&B Company Embroiled in Murder Scandal." He felt a knot in his stomach as he read on, his mind racing with questions. How could this have happened in his company? Who could be behind such a heinous act?Just then, his personal manager, Tom, burst into his office, looking grave. "Derrick, we need to talk.""What's going on, Tom?" Derrick asked, his voice firm but laced with concern."It's about the incident in the company cafeteria," Tom said, his eyes serious. "The police are investigating it as a murder case."Derrick's eyes widened in shock. "Murder? But who...how?"Tom shook his head. "That's the problem. No one knows. The victim, Alex, was a well-liked employee. No one can think of any reason why someone would want him dead."Derrick's mind raced as he tried to process the information. He thought about his company, his employees, his reputation. This scandal could ruin everything he had worked so hard to build."

As the press conference came to a close, Derrick felt a sense of relief wash over him. He had finally spoken the truth and cleared his name. He knew that Tiffany would continue to try and sabotage him, but he was ready for her."Thank you, everyone," Derrick said, his voice tired but triumphant. "I'm glad I could finally set the record straight."As the reporters filed out of the room, Tom approached Derrick, a smile on his face."Great job, boss," Tom said, clapping Derrick on the back. "You really took her down."Derrick nodded, his eyes still locked on Tiffany, who was storming out of the room."I'm not done yet," Derrick said, his voice cold and determined. "I'm going to make sure she pays for what she's done."Tom's eyes widened in surprise, but he nodded in agreement."I'm with you, boss," Tom said. "Let's take her down once and for all."And with that, Derrick and Tom set out on a mission to expose Tiffany's lies and bring her to justice. It was going to be a long and difficult
Chapter 152
Before Tom could turn to confront Tiffany, she had vanished into thin air. He spun around, his eyes scanning the darkness, but she was nowhere to be found. And to make matters worse, the blind spot in the warehouse meant that there was no CCTV footage to prove she had even been there.Tom's mind raced as he tried to process what had just happened. He had been so sure that he had finally caught Tiffany in the act, but now she had slipped through his fingers once again.But as he stood there, trying to make sense of it all, a slow smile spread across his face. Because even though he hadn't caught Tiffany, her plan had still been foiled. And that meant that Derrick would finally trust him.The cops arrived soon after, and Tom explained what had happened. But without any evidence, they couldn't do much. They left, and Tom was left alone in the warehouse, his mind still reeling.But as he walked back home, he felt a sense of satisfaction wash over him. He had stopped Tiffany's plan, and he

The ally hesitated, his voice dropping to a whisper. "They're planning to fabricate something in your company, Derrick. They're going to do it today, and they're going to do it tonight."Derrick's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with strategies and plans. He knew he had to act fast, to stop Tiffany and Tom before it was too late."Get the recording to me now," Derrick growled. "I'll take care of the rest."The ally nodded, his voice firm. "I'll get it to you. But be careful, Derrick. They're not playing games."Derrick's smile was cold and calculating. "Neither am I."The ally arrived at Derrick's office, a small device in his hand. "I've got the recording," he said, his eyes serious. "You need to hear this."Derrick's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with anticipation. "Play it," he growled.The ally nodded, pressing a button on the device. Suddenly, Tiffany's voice filled the room, her words dripping with malice."We need to get into his office tonight," she said. "We need to find some
