The Richest Heir CHAPTER 29
"Wait a minute!"Amanda placed her hands on her hips, a smug smirk adorning her lips as she cast a triumphant gaze toward Caleb."Give him a moment," she instructed the guards, who sought approval from the manager. Although bewildered, the manager nodded, and they retreated a step.Tracy walked towards Caleb, her hips swaying with an extra allure, the rhythmic click of her high heels resonating on the tiled floor. Leaning in provocatively, she teased, "Here's your final opportunity, delivery boy. Kneel down now, apologize in front of everyone, and I'll personally appeal for your forgiveness and release. What's do you say?"In the past, he might have complied to avoid additional trouble, but times had changed, and so had he.Stepping back, Caleb shot her a defiant glare. "Kneel in front of you and apologize for something I never did," he pretended to contemplate, then smirked with a hint of sarcasm."Nah, I think I'll pass," he mocked, his tone carrying a touch of irony.Despite the

"I'm sincerely sorry, Sir," the manager apologized once again.Mr. Holland had received explicit instructions not to reveal Caleb's identity, requiring him to maintain respect without disclosing Caleb's true position within the restaurant. Had it not been for Mr. Nat's strict instructions, the manager would have fallen to his knees, pleading for forgiveness."Please Sir forgive me..." The manager repeated.The complete change in the manager's personality after just one phone call caught everyone off guard.Kenneth, Tracy and Amanda stood in shock, their expressions utterly bewildered."What the hell just happened?" Amanda whispered."I've no idea," Tracy replied, struggling to believe what she had heard.Unable to resist, Kenneth stepped forward. "What are you talking about, Mr. Holland?" he practically shouted.Caleb sighed; He seemed determined not to let go of the matter. Ignoring him, he turned to the manager. "Can I go now?""Of course, of course," the manager replied, completel

Caleb stood up from his chair, a hint of frustration in his eyes as he sighed."Amanda, what do you want now? Yesterday, I fell on top of you because you grabbed my t-shirt when you toppled over. It was not my fault. And today, I had already apologized for the water incident. What else do you want from me?"Caleb couldn't fathom why she just wouldn't let the matter go. He had come here to meet his fiancée, yet Amanda was still eager to stir up trouble."Why... why are you in this room?" questioned Amanda, staring directly at him."That's none of your business!" Caleb gritted, growing fed up with Amanda's persistence."I want to know! So answer the damn question!" Amanda shouted back.Caleb rolled his eyes and took a deep breath before turning his gaze back to her."I've booked this private. That is why I am here. But why are you here?" Caleb asked, putting his hands in his pockets, his eyes momentarily trailing over to the beauty beside her."No, I mean, why did you book this private

Clearing his throat, and totally ignoring Amanda, he extended his hand. "I'm Caleb King."Sophia responded with a small smile, reaching out to shake his hand. "Sophia Walters."Caleb couldn't help but smile widely as he felt her soft hand in his. However, when Sophia noticed his gleeful expression, she slowly withdrew her hand."Caleb, you do understand the reason we're here today, right?" Sophia asked with a serious tone.Caleb nodded, "Yes, I do."Sophia took a deep breath, her fingers fidgeting in her lap as she lowered her eyes. "Then I just want to say that I am ready to marry you," she uttered.Caleb was momentarily stunned, not expecting her to agree so readily, especially after the earlier spectacle in the restroom. According to the rules in the will, he had to marry her within six months without revealing his true identity.Unbeknownst to Caleb, Mr. Nat had used his vast wealth as a tool to manipulate and coerce Mr. Clark, Sophia's stepfather, into this arranged marriage. Mr.

"Sophia....don't you think my suggestion is a good one?" Amanda asked with a smirk.Sophia furrowed her eyebrows at her question, stealing a glance at Caleb, eager to gauge his reaction.Caleb had initially intended to tease Sophia about the conditions, but now the situation was becoming more complicated.He sighed, realizing that she had already made it clear they would only be husband and wife on paper. It wouldn't be an easy task to resist attraction when living under the same roof. Moreover, what if she eventually cheated on him? That thought lingered in Caleb's mind.That in itself would be a humiliation for himFacing potential betrayal from Sophia brought back memories of Tracy cheating on him when she was his girlfriend.The prospect of Sophia doing the same loomed over him, adding to the complexities of the situation. Yet, accepting the $3000 a month as a payoff seemed equally humiliating, as it would label him as a man dependent on a woman for living expenses."Listen, deli

Amanda huffed, glaring at Caleb as she pushed the napkin with the account number into her purse. Her initial plan had backfired, and frustration boiled within her. She had hoped he would show a bit of dignity, refuse the money, act in his usual humble manner, and leave – thus putting an end to the arrangement of marriage with Sophia and any link to her. The fear of people discovering their indirect connection irked her.Additionally, the substantial impact of a monthly expense of 8000 dollars on her savings was a cause for concern.As she reflected on it, the idea of offering money seemed rather foolish. Why didn't she think things through before speaking? Amanda needed to figure out a way to make Caleb reject the monetary proposal and abandon the wedding idea altogether.Attempting a different tactic, Amanda exclaimed, "How can you be so shameless! Is it appropriate, for a man to live off a woman's money?" Her frustration grew as Caleb shrugged, unfazed.As she uttered those words,

Caleb turned back around, studying the manager with a contemplative expression. The manager began to sweat again, fearing he had changed his mind and was going to be fired."Sir, I'm..." he stuttered, pulling out his handkerchief to wipe away the nervous sweat."Have you told anyone about my identity?" asked Caleb cautiously."No, sir. I haven't. Mr. Nat specifically instructed me that your identity must remain a secret. I'm the only one who knows, sir. And I assure you that your secret is safe with me.""Good," Caleb nodded with a small smirk."By the way, I wanted to know if the two people who insulted me in the restroom and called me a thief are members of this restaurant.""The man with your ex-girlfriend, sir," the manager said, then suddenly realized what he had said. "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't..."Caleb held up his hand to stop him from speaking further."Are they members of the restaurant?"The manager thought for a while and shook his head."No, sir, they are not. I've never s

Stephen couldn't help but glare angrily at Kenneth and Tracy, until suddenly something the manager said clicked in his mind."Wait a minute. Did you just say that my membership has been cancelled?""That's right, as of now you are no longer a member here!" The manager responded icily, his gaze shifting to Kenneth, who wore a nervously apprehensive expression before quickly averting his eyes.Upon hearing this, Stephen was livid. It was very hard to get a membership at this restaurant. His father had invested millions of dollars for both himself and Stephen, enduring extensive background checks, to secure their coveted gold-level membership card. Yet, unexpectedly, it was abruptly canceled.Membership here held an esteemed status, reserved for the elite. Only the crème de la crème possessed such privileges. If Kenneth's father discovered that a friend he had invited to his birthday party had stirred up trouble, leading to the cancellation of their prestigious membership, the conseque
