The Richest Heir CHAPTER 34
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

Meanwhile...After Caleb departed from The Royal Palm Restaurant, he remained oblivious to the unfolding events. He had no inclination to find out; he trusted Mr. Holland to handle the situation adeptly.Standing outside a tall building, Caleb couldn't help but smile at the thought of Sophia. Marrying a woman of such unparalleled beauty was beyond his wildest expectations. However, the irony was evident to him. Despite her outward charm, she held reservations towards him. The restroom incident and Amanda's false accusations of inappropriate touches during his fall likely lingered in her mind, unfairly casting him as a pervert in her eyes."I wish our initial encounter hadn't left her with the wrong impression," he sighed, but a faint smile tugged at his lips."Anyway i still consider myself fortunate; I never expected my fiancée to be so breathtaking. I just wish there hadn't been a misunderstanding," Caleb sighed softly.Deep down, he harbored the hope that, with time, Sophia would

And what proof do you have that I can't afford to buy a house?" he challenged.The attractive manager regarded him as he posed the question, unable to resist rolling her eyes. She looked him up and down with a sneer, and some employees chuckled, finding his question amusing."Are you seriously asking this absurd question?" remarked the sneering manager.Caleb nodded, maintaining a serious expression. "Yes, I am asking, and I want an answer!""Alright, I'll entertain your questions just for amusement. Do you have any idea about the cost of these houses?" she asked with a smirk.Caleb looked at the woman and slowly shook his head "No, I don't have any idea.""You questioned how I knew you couldn't afford any of the houses. Allow me to enlighten you. The most affordable house for sale here is priced at over 2 million dollars," she stated, staring Caleb with a small smirk."2 million dollars," she repeated, emphasizing the figure with two raised fingers. "Now, can you honestly say you

Sophia returned to what she couldn't quite call home and headed straight to her brother Charlie's room. Pushing the door open, she found him engrossed in a book on his bed."Hey, Charlie...""Soph..." He beamed and swiftly got off the bed, rushing towards her for a tight embrace."You were gone for so long; I thought you had left me..." His eyes teared up.Sophia hugged him once more."I promised I'd never leave you, and I never break a promise to you, okay?" She reassured him, cupping his face in her hands with a warm smile.Charlie smiled back and nodded."Where did you go? I was looking for you." Charlie inquired, settling back against the headboard, holding a closed book in his lap."I had somewhere I needed to go, sorry it just took longer than I expected..."Charlie simply nodded, his gaze fixed on the book in his hands."Charlie...""Ummm...."Sophia observed her brother, sensing an underlying issue. She took a seat on the bed, her fingers lightly brushing the soft fabric of th

BACK AT THE SHOWROOM Miss Roberts, obedient to Mr. Williams' command, led the way to an office where various villa models were on display. The models were intricately crafted, each showcasing unique architectural features and design elements. Caleb followed behind, taking in the details.Shortly after, Mr. Williams joined them, offering a warm smile to Caleb."These are our exquisite villa models. Take your time exploring, and I'll leave you in the capable hands of Miss Roberts," he said, knowing the likelihood of Caleb making a purchase was slim. With that, Mr. Williams departed, leaving Caleb and Miss Roberts amidst the finely presented architectural representations.Angela quietly entered the office, standing near the door with a visible air of nervousness. Her eyes betrayed a sense of helplessness, aware that Miss Roberts was seething with anger. The blame for bringing Caleb into the building rested on Angela's shoulders, and she couldn't shake the anticipation of facing the c

"You want to buy a villa, like right now?" Hearing this, the manager looked at Caleb before she burst into laughter.The staff that had been lingering in the background, listening to the conversation, followed suit and started laughing too, as if Caleb had just cracked the funniest joke ever.Angela looked at everyone laughing and began to feel conscious "Sir, leave it. I'm fine let's just get out of here. Ill find another job, its no big deal"Although she was touched by his support she knew that there was no way he could be able to afford a villa for that amount of money. 6.5 million was no small amount.She thought he was just bluffing to show Miss Roberts her place. Caleb ignored her plea to leave and looked around at everyone "Are you all done laughing?" Caleb's dangerous tone cut through the room, instantly silencing everyone.The staff, once chuckling, now shifted uncomfortably as they faced the sudden change in atmosphere.Despite Angela's plea to move on, Caleb disregarded
