The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 142: Absence
Derek stopped his car in front of Sophia's apartment. Making his way up the steps, he noted that the corridor was looking clean and kept which signaled that she had been around. "Sophia?" He knocked quietly on the door. No response. Derek tried again, before punching in her pass-code. She had let him know the digits of her pass-code the last time he visited. "Sophia? Are you in?" He called into the empty sitting room. Was she in the bedroom? That was odd. Sophia would have come running the moment she heard his voice at the door. To be sure, Derek made sure to check the bedroom, the kitchen, and even the storage. Confirmed. She wasn't at home. He returned and glanced around the state of the bedroom. It was obvious she was here this morning. He didn't want to guess so he placed a call to Barnes, the guard he allocated to watch over her. "When last did you see Miss Sophia?""Last night, I followed her to the mall on the next street when she cornered me and told me to leave her
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 143: Who did
Wallace arrived back at the mansion quite late that night, with Ethan beside him. Both of them look haggard and worn out. They'd spent most of the day trying to get the traces of the people who snatched Sophia from them. Ethan suddenly recalled their car had stopped for a while. He presumed that was where they changed cars to mislead him. Unfortunately, the place was an intersection on a busy highway, with several streets linked to it, so they did a lot of work trying to find a lead. According to Wallace's hypothesis, Derek was the one who took Sophia from them. But ever since he got a report from someone, he started to doubt that allegation. The informant stated that Derek kept asking if Sophia had arrived at the office.If he was really the one who took her, why would he be asking after her? Or was he trying to confuse them? Wallace now had a throbbing temple in addition to his trembling heart.He had assured Morris that they would be going to see Sophia tonight. His Boss wa

"Stephen." Morris sat down on his swivel chair, rubbing his chin in thought. A smile broke out on his face as he picked up the phone to dial Stephen's number. "What is the meaning of this trick you just pulled?" Morris asked immediately. "I had no choice, Boss," Stephen replied in a calm, clear voice. "You went back on your promise to show your face to me and I had to do this.""Is that right?" Morris chuckled, all his initial anger and frustration gone. Stephen was just a minion, the least of his problems. He couldn't be bothered by someone who could blackmail him in an immature way. "You keep saying I didn't prove my allegiance to you. But in reality, I've been doing everything you ask of me, following your orders even to the detriment of my life. Isn't that unfair?""Unfair?" Morris echoed sarcastically. "Yes! It's totally unfair, the fact that you reveal your face to your closest men, but refuse to let me come that close to you!" Stephen said in a shaky voice. "For your infor

Dominic sat in his study, going through one of his work documents when a knock sounded on the door.It was his right-hand man, Alex. "Boss, the men are awaiting your orders." Alex placed an iPad on the table and turned on the video call. "Good day, Boss," Jack spoke from the other end of the line. "The situation here is already dragging for too long, the police have refused to let us go after a series of questioning and investigations! Those idiots are already overstepping their boundaries." Jack complained angrily.Dominic sighed, tapping his pen on the table. It has been 24 hours since the jet was discovered to be in bad condition. He'd even spoken to the rentals and compensated for the damaged vehicle, but why was the police still refusing to let them go? "You have to remain calm, Jack. You must not send out the signal that you're angry with them, that would only worsen matters!""So, what do we do? I don't like the fact that we're stuck here doing nothing when we should be help
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 146: No nonsense
Dominic got off the phone fully convinced that Morris was a sneaky bastard! He wasn't too sure at first, but now he was totally convinced!No Mafia Lord would be as shameless as to use such underhand methods in a fight. He needed to draw the line immediately. If they continue this way, Morris might think they were weaklings. After instructing Alex to get the train tickets ready, Dominic made a quick phone call and ordered a package to be delivered to a particular address. He still recalled Morris' fears from the past and was willing to remind him in case he had forgotten. He couldn't strike because his men weren't here in full. If Morris dared to retaliate now, he would be the one to suffer losses. Dominic was still thinking of other ways to deal with Morris when the phone suddenly rang. "Are you busy right now?" It was Derek, his voice breathless. "No. Is anything wrong?" "Check the stock market!" Derek replied excitedly. Dominic opened the tabloid and was profoundly shocke
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 147: No trust
"How dare you disrespect our Boss?" Morris's men quickly went forward to restrain Sophia. "Who are you? If you have the guts, turn around and show me your face!" Sophia screamed at Morris' back. Morris had turned away immediately and she hurled that paper at him. He had forgotten to put on a mask before leaving his mansion earlier. Fortunately, the room was dimly lit, so she hadn't seen his face. "Here, Boss." Wallace quickly handed a black mask to him. Sophia was still hysterical. "How dare you abduct and lock me up in this awful place? Do you have an idea who my father is? I'll have you know he can crush you to death!" "And I'll have you know that your father doesn't know you're missing." Morris fixed his deathly gaze on her. "Everyone thinks you're out on a vacation, so I am the one with the power to crush you to death here!" "That's impossible. Derek should know I have been abducted by now!" A trace of fear crossed her face, but she quickly hid it. Morris chuckled dar
The Rise Of A Secret Heir Chapter 148: Accost
Derek tapped his foot impatiently, checking his watch again and again. The air in the car carried a certain amount of tension, anticipation, and wariness. "Are you sure you got the right details?" Derek asked Benson who was beside him in the backseat. "It's normal for Hamilton to arrive late sometimes, Boss." Thomas was the one that replied, from behind the wheels. Derek looked outside without another word, his eyes sweeping past his men positioned in the darkness some few meters away. Benson had followed his instructions to the letter, placing at least 15 men in several places outside the Wildies Club. They had an extra 10 men waiting in a G-wagon behind them in the parking lot.All that was left was for the target to show up. Derek gritted his teeth. The worst that would happen if Hamilton didn't show up is they go confront him in his house! He doesn't have time for all this. At that moment, a flashing red Lamborghini drove in, stopping at the entrance of the club. Derek s

"You wanna know who I am?" Derek smirked. "Fine, I'll tell you. I am someone you shouldn't dare to offend!""What?" Hamilton was dazed. "What gave this freak the audacity to barge in here?" the naked woman screamed, scrambling for the bed covers at the same time. "Hamilton. Is this how much you rate us, that you invite all your friends to watch the sex?" Their faces turned red in mortification. Hamilton, who had been dumbstruck after what Derek said, finally snapped back to reality."Both of you should get lost!" He hollered, snatching the duvet from them and getting up. The women quickly dressed up and left faces red and hair unkempt. His eyes roved over Derek and his companions. He tried hard to search his memory, but all indications said he hadn't come across them before. "Who are you?" He frowned. "I've told you already," Derek replied. His answer only angered Hamilton. "You're being too confident for your good. I have never met you before and I don't even recognize you, th
