The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 115: Short of words
The next morning, Derek got up with a slight hangover. He had quite a number of bottles of alcohol last night and now his head was hurting. He quickly took some painkillers and hurried to the bathroom to get ready. Last night, he had prepared a recovery plan for his company. He had also prepared a warning letter to be delivered to Morris' housekeeper. If Morris didn't heed to his warning, he already had a retaliation plan in place. He quickly placed a call to inquire on his sister's condition, but it was the same. No improvement. Derek sighed and quickly got into the bathroom. While he was getting dressed, he received a call from Benson. "Hello, Boss." "Speak." "We just received a request from the mafia lords under us. They want to meet with you." "At the same time?" "Yeah." Derek frowned. Something must be wrong for them to request a meeting so suddenly. "Do you have an idea why?" "No, I don't." Benson replied. "Alright. I'll be heading to Aircastle with Thomas
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 116: No dispatch
As the nurse unwrapped the bandage on his shoulder, Thomas' mind returned back to the incident back at Morris' mansion. Derek had risked a lot just to rescue his sister back then, and now she was unconscious. Right now, there would be a lot of things to take care of at the company. Why was he here, lazing around like this? "When can I get discharged?" Thomas sat up suddenly, asking the nurse. His bruises had healed, the only thing left was his left shoulder pain had reduced. "You should be able to leave by tomorrow morning." she replied. "What?" Thomas stared at her like she'd gone mad. "Why do I need to stay another day here? I'm fine already.""You ought to be discharged today. But your shoulder injury has barely healed, you still need to complete your treatment medications." She smiled, fixing the drip into his forearm. "Now that I've assessed your condition, why don't you relax and let me bring breakfast for you?""Hmm." Thomas nodded. Immediately the nurse stepped out, he
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 117: Fear
Thomas paced the hospital hall, his teeth gritted.He'd been trying Derek's line, but no one was responding. Benson was also unreachable, Sophia's secretary also confirmed that she was currently having a board meeting. What was going on? He could have headed to the company right away, but he couldn't leave Annabelle unguarded. "Doctor!" He rushed to meet them when they stepped out. "Annabelle's condition is already fairly stable, in fact she has started responding to treatment." the doctor assured him. "Oh, thank Goodness." Thomas was relieved that none of the chaos affected her. "You should also have some rest, Mr Thomas. You lost quite some amount of blood and you were just discharged today.""I can't rest if Annabelle possibly remains in danger.""No worries, sir." The doctor waved at someone behind. Two muscular men in police uniform ran up to face them. "We've acquired some police escort to guard the patient's ward during the course of the investigation.""Good." Thomas s
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 118: A loser or not?
"Daniel!" Jude knocked on the table to get his attention. "I was speaking to you, pal. What were you thinking about?""Nothing much." Daniel swung down another glass, his throat constricted. "What were you saying?""Who is the President of Aircastle? Did you see his face?" Jude asked again. "No, I didn't." Daniel stuttered. "I didn't dare raise my eyes to look at him."There was no way he would let Jude know that Derek was the President. "That's too bad." Jude slammed his glass on the table. "I've always wondered how the President looked like. He must be some high-ranking figure, and come from a wealthy influential family."No. He's not.It's Derek. The guy we always scorned back in College. Daniel thought to himself. "How's been work at your place, Jude?" He asked, in an attempt to shift the conversation away from himself."It's been fairly stable. By the end of this year, I have a promotion to look out for." Jude chuckled. All of a sudden, he jumped up and waved. "Guys. Over he
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 119: The meeting
Derek arrived at the Winters Restaurant 20 minutes earlier. He and Benson settled in the private room booked for the meeting. "We'll have a bottle of wine, till our companions arrive." He waved the waiters away. Benson was seated beside him, both of them facing the door, with grim faces. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Derek asked him. "That the men called this meeting because of what happened with Morris?"Derek nodded, with a tight smile. It wouldn't be easy trying to defend himself in front of these men. A while after the waiters left, a knock sounded at the door and three men walked in. "Glad to see you're here on time," Albert spoke, his tall frame towering over them with angry eyes. Herbert took his seat opposite Derek, displeasure written all over his face. The last to be seated was Stephen, a small smile playing on his lips. All three of them were Elders of 3 Mafia societies under Derek. Albert jumped into the conversation immediately. "You should know why we c
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 120: Distrust
"Derek, I was asking you a question. Is there any other thing you would like us to do for you?" Stephen asked again, sipping his wine. Derek's gaze flickered. "I need some men, that's all. But remember, you must keep your guard up all the time. Never relax your security, to prevent being caught unawares!"The men exchanged glances and nodded. "Who else would understand how terrifying Morris is if not us?" Herbert sighed. "We promise to be careful, Boss. In fact, I'm stationing men on the highway leading to my mansion in order to quickly detect any intrusion." Stephen nodded. "Same here, I'll inform my men to be extra-vigilant." Herbert seconded. "I'm curious about one thing, though?" Albert, who had been quiet for a while spoke. "What is the probability that your plan to defeat Morris would be successful, and we won't end up with too many casualties?"Derek and Benson exchanged looks. "Why?""We have to know what we're getting ourselves into!" He snapped. "Even if the chances of w
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 121: Plans
Benson was confused, as he stared at Derek's cold expression. "Boss, you know the truth, I would never betray you." "Oh, really?" Derek scoffed. "Even if Morris threatens you with your daughter, will you still be standing by my side?" Benson's gaze revealed conflicting emotions, never leaving Derek's face. Derek knew that his only family was a little girl, and he would give anything to keep her safe. But if it was at the expense of Derek's safety... "Boss, can you calm down and think this over?" Thomas stammered, glancing at the other men who were looking confused as well. "I'll consider thinking it over after blowing his brains off!" Derek scowled, exerting force on the trigger. "No!" Thomas screamed from behind. "Boss, please!" "Answer the damn question, you fool!" Thomas yelled at Benson who had been in a trance. Benson broke into a cold sweat at the look in Derek's eyes. "I trust that if my daughter is in danger, you will not spare your energy in rescuing her. You're the
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 122: In process
When they arrived in the sitting room, Derek instructed Benson. "You can go ahead with the plan, and prepare our men." When he left, Benson quickly made his way to the men's quarters.Derek had instructed him to prepare men to infiltrate the Elder's Mafia. They had to insert spies among the elders to know their next plan of action.This was better than blindly trusting each of them. He selected 6 men, 2 for each mafia, and led them underground to the tattoo room. "Welcome, Boss." Jake was the man in charge of the tattoo room, which helped to prepare Derek's men with tattoos, piercings, a change in haircut, looks, and everything that could help their men fit in properly as a spy. "There are 6 men you need to make an identification tattoo for." Benson rubbed his chin in thought.He had seen some men from each Mafia before. Their identification sign hadn't escaped his shrewd eyes. Albert's men had a star tattoo in the crook of their neck, Herbert's men had a dragon tattoo on their w
