2024-10-29 19:42:56"But why am I the last surviving heir of the Linford family?" Javier asked.
"Because no one else can be the heir of your family, Mr. Joshua and Mrs. Carol passed away long ago and you are their only heir. Don't you want to take what is already yours, sir?" Javier was silent for a while, if he was indeed the last heir of the Linford family, that meant he had to take back what was his.
"Of course I have to take it back," Javier replied.
"So you're going to do it?" With a slight hesitation, Javier nodded his head. This was his chance to make Blaire and his son happy, then take what was already his.
"That's great, sir! I'm glad that you're finally back and willing to take it back. I've prepared everything for you, so you just have to worry about nothing else," Adam said, Javier could only nod and this time he listened to what Adam was saying seriously.
"I'm going to introduce you as the young Mr. Linford and you're going to be the man in charge of this town after all these years of the Linford Family being destroyed!" Adam said.
"But I think it might be too dangerous for me to return in such a high profile manner, we should do it quietly for a while." Adam nodded his head in agreement, he smiled happily as Javier turned out to be very smart just like Joshua, his old boss. Although his life was difficult, it didn't change anything about his intelligence.
"You're right," Adam replied. He believed that Javier would be a great heir one day.
"Are the family's assets really in your hands?" Adam nodded his head again and Javier looked thoughtful, like he was planning something.
"Since we're going to do this plan secretly, I think you should transfer some assets and money to some big companies." Javier came up with another idea that might be incorporated into the plan.
"That will strengthen our plan and our assets."
"Yes, sir. I will do that and I will also transfer a few million dollars to a secret account in your name," Adam replied, after all, the Linford family's wealth and assets were vast. The assets and money to be transferred were only a fraction of what they had.
"You're very good, that's why I've been trying to find you all these years." Javier smiled, Adam's praise bringing back the confidence he had lost. He always felt he was useless, but a surprising secret about him emerged and made Javier realize that he was more special than he thought.
"You look a lot like your father," Adam continued.
"Really? What was he like?" Javier never remembered what his mom and dad looked like, he never even thought he had parents or a family that loved him.
"Exactly like you. You're both great people." Javier didn't think he could be compared to his father. He didn't think he was great enough as his son but from now on he would try and plan to restore the Linford family's glory.
"Alright, that's the plan for now, I'll let you know about the next plan. You can wait for further instructions." Javier got up from his seat, he felt he had to leave soon. Blaire was probably waiting for him for a long time.
"Are you leaving now, sir?" asked Adam, the older man getting up as well.
"Yes, I have to go home now."
"Well, I'll see you later, sir. Matt, take the young master home!" Adam ordered. One of the men in black ran over to Javier and stood behind him. When Javier turned around and was about to leave the room, all the men who were Adam's subordinates bowed respectfully to him. Javier was amazed, he couldn't believe that he could make people bow to him when just a few hours ago he was just a useless commoner.
Throughout the car ride, Javier kept daydreaming. He thought about what happened today that surprised him so much.
"What should I tell Blaire? She'll ask me about work and where I've been," Javier muttered. He couldn't lie to his wife, but he couldn't tell Blaire about today's events.
"I can't lie, but I have to hide my true identity from Blaire for her safety, at least for now."
"I'll tell her when I get a job..." Javier nodded his head, he had found an excuse to talk to his wife later and he would keep it a secret from Blaire for the time being.
10 minutes later he arrived at his house. He walked into the house, but strangely Blaire didn't greet him like she usually did.
"Where is she? Did she go out?" Javier wondered as he stepped into the house.
As he was about to go to his room, he heard Blaire and his family chatting, and Javier quietly listened. It turned out that Blaire was on a group call with his family.
"Come on Blaire! Don't you want to do this for your family? This is a big contract and we have to get it," his mother-in-law said on the phone to Blaire.
"Do you think your husband will be able to make our family company successful? No! He only deserves to be a lowly employee." Anne continued to insult Javier to get her daughter to do what she wanted.
"Mom, I can't do it. You know I'm pregnant and I don't want a divorce with Javier!" Blaire replied firmly, to which Anne snorted in annoyance.
"You idiot, I'm trying to give you the best life possible. Don't worry about your pregnancy, you can terminate it and you can marry Mr. Andrew."
"He's a rich and clever man who can help the family survive. He will help us get a big contract in the market from Ford Group!" Javier who was silently listening was surprised to hear that, he thought that Ford Group was the company under his and Adam's name. From the name alone, Javier could tell. He didn't know that Adam was already carrying out this plan beyond what he knew.
"I'll make whoever can help our family get this offer appointed as the family CEO," Anne's words now gave Javier an idea.

"Oh you're home?" Blaire just realized that Javier was standing in front of his room, Javier immediately entered the room and approached Blaire."Mom, I have to go. See you later!" Blaire quickly hung up the phone and Javier sat down next to Blaire. Javier took his wife's hand and held it tightly, he smiled and kissed her cheek briefly."When did you arrive? Why didn't you call me?" His expression looked worried, Blaire was probably afraid that Javier would be hurt by what his mother had said."I heard you on the phone with your mom earlier, Blaire," Javier said."Ah you don't have to listen to mom! I'm sorry I couldn't get her to stop saying bad things about you." Blaire looked guilty, even though it was her mom's fault."No, honey. It's not your fault. Your mom is right, but I'm not going to let you go or divorce you." Javier smiled as he gently stroked Blaire's cheek, Blaire smiled too, they both loved each other so much but the Watsons always tried to keep them apart."And about y

The day of the declaration arrived, Blaire was nervous and fearful of the outcome of her bid. Javier noticed this, he walked over to his wife and took her hand. Javier smiled at his wife, trying to calm her down."I know you must be nervous and afraid that this plan won't work out, but don't worry, Blaire," Javier said to Blaire, but Blaire still looked nervous."Of course I'm scared, I don't want to be separated from you, Jav! What if....""Blaire, do you trust me?" Blaire nodded his head, he trusted Javier but he couldn't get rid of his fear."Then don't be afraid, I won't leave you. I'll take care of all this, so you just need to shut up and trust me, do you understand?" Sighing, Blaire nodded her head again."Yes, I understand and I will trust you with everything," she replied."Now let's get everything ready, your family will be here any minute." Blaire went to the kitchen to make a meal for her family while they were at her house.Soon, the doorbell rang, the Watsons had arrived
The Secret Heir Son-In-Law 07. The New CEO at Ford Group
Her mother and sister-in-law had left an hour later, and Javier, who had just dropped them off at the front of the house, had been detained by Blaire. The expression on his wife's face had been worried since their conversation."What's wrong, Blaire? What are you thinking?" Javier asked. Blaire lifted his head and looked at Javier."Why are you so sure of what you're saying? Aren't you afraid of losing me, Jav?" Javier smiled and realized his wife's anxiety."Of course I don't want to lose you...""Then why did you dare to make that bet with my family? You even agreed to let me marry Mr. Albert," Blaire cut him off, seeing that he was really scared that it would happen."Blaire, I did all of this for you. You just have to trust me and see what happens." This was the second time Javier had to calm Blaire down like this and he could only continue to make Blaire believe him about his plan."Okay..." Blaire sighed and nodded his head. Javier looked at the clock on his hand, and he had som

Jay left Javier's room after receiving orders, he went down to the lobby and saw that Albert was still waiting with an annoyed look on his face. Albert immediately got up from his seat when he saw Jay's arrival."What took you so long? I've been waiting for this!" he shouted angrily as he kept waiting for almost half an hour to meet Jay."I'm sorry, sir. Our new CEO just arrived earlier so I had to meet him first." Jay's words made Albert furrow his brow in confusion."If he just arrived, that means he came at the same time as me. But I didn't see him..." he muttered to himself, he only met Javier earlier and he never thought that Javier was the new CEO of the company."Then let me meet your new CEO, I'll talk about the offer. Hurry up and take me to his office!" She asked haughtily but Jay didn't follow her request."I'm sorry, but about the offer we've already discussed it with the other bosses and it's confidential," Jay replied and Albert just chuckled."I will make you a big prof
The Secret Heir Son-In-Law 09. Albert Lost It All
"Wait a minute, that must be a misunderstanding..." Albert continued to deny the latest news even though he knew what was really going on. However, he still didn't want to lose the Watsons' trust in him."What's the misunderstanding? It was announced directly by a representative of the Ford Group!" shouted Anne, the middle-aged woman looking absolutely furious."Mom, calm down." Blaire who saw it all tried to calm things down, she approached her mother but her mother immediately brushed Blaire's hand away."Why is it that none of my plans ever work out? Blaire, you've made my life complicated and now you." Anne gave Albert a contemptuous look, very different from the look she usually gave Albert. It made Albert upset, he didn't like being treated this low by Anne."I'm doing everything I can but I'm working with a loser like you," Anne insinuated Albert again."Loser? Hey, watch your mouth! If I hadn't helped you all this time, you wouldn't have gotten anything." Irritated, Albert sho
The Secret Heir Son-In-Law 10. Javier's Mysterious Plan
Javier was still in his room which looked very large and luxurious, he continued to look around in awe. Javier never thought that he could have a room like this all to himself. It seemed impossible for someone like him, and now he could be the new CEO of the biggest company in his country."If Blaire knew this, she would be very happy. Blaire also doesn't have to worry about my work now, she just needs to focus on her pregnancy," Javier said to himself with a smile that had been widening ever since."And her family won't be able to insult me anymore, but... I can't tell them now. I have to keep it a secret for a while." Javier nodded his head, agreeing with her thoughts."If the Watsons knew, they certainly wouldn't believe it or they would take advantage of this. After all the bad things they've done to me and Blaire, I don't want to be used by them," Javier said again."And I won't let anyone separate me from Blaire." That was Javier's goal, he didn't want to be separated from Blair
The Secret Heir Son-In-Law 11. Blame it on Blaire
"Hello, Blaire? What's up, are you okay?" asked Javier when he picked up the phone from his wife. He knew that Blaire was at the Watsons' house so he was a little worried about his wife."Jav, I'm fine. But I have some news," Blaire replied in a hushed voice. She was in the bathroom avoiding her family.Hearing that, Javier knew what news Blaire was going to tell him. He knew that this news was about Albert and his family, Javier secretly smiled, he could guess that the Watsons were now confused because their plans were not going smoothly."Is this about Mr. Albert?" Blaire was surprised that Javier already knew."That's right! How did you know?" Hearing Blaire's question, Javier realized that he should have pretended not to know. Blaire must be suspicious but Javier tried to think of a plausible answer to his wife's question."About that... you know I work at Ford Group now, right? So I know about the news." Javier felt like letting out a sigh of relief that he'd managed to come up w
The Secret Heir Son-In-Law 12. Javier's Promise to His Wife
"I should have married you off to a rich man quickly before you fell into Javier's trap and married him," her mother said while massaging her head and still talking about Blaire."You should have married a rich man who would have helped our company get ahead in the business world! Our family has hit rock bottom since you married Javier." Her mother raised her tone as if blaming Blaire for everything that happened. Blaire sighed, they were back to making her feel cornered here."Mom, stop it," Blaire retorted. She no longer felt angry, she felt sad."I won't stop until you stop destroying our family like this." Her mom snorted and seemed unconcerned even though Blaire looked sad."Don't you see your sisters and cousins marrying rich men? Aren't you ashamed, Blaire?" her mother asked and Bella who was sitting next to her mother was already smiling proudly."Why should I be ashamed?" Blaire replied with another question."Of course because you married a poor man! Unlike me who married a r

"Yes, she's still here. But you can't see her," Anne said, surprising Javier. Of course, he was immediately angry because his mother-in-law suddenly wouldn't let him meet his own wife. Although Blaire was her daughter, they had no right to forbid Blaire and Javier from meeting."What do you mean, mom? Why can't I see her?" asked Javier, not understanding and Anne casually shrugged her shoulders as she continued to look at Javier sarcastically."You should realize the reason why I won't let you meet Blaire. I knew from the beginning that I shouldn't have allowed you two to get married, you're a sneaky guy who only took advantage of Blaire coming from a rich family and now that Blaire is willing to live in poverty with you, you're looking for another woman from another rich family, right?" Javier couldn't understand what Anne was talking about. He didn't think he had made a mistake and now suddenly Anne was saying something about Javier looking for another rich family woman."Wait... I

Later that night, Javier went to the airport after getting ready at the hotel. His flight time was at 10pm and he would arrive at 12pm in his city. Of course he did all this for Blaire's sake, he knew that something had happened to his wife because until now Blaire hadn't returned his messages and that made Javier even more worried."Sir, do I need to send someone to go to the Watsons' house and check on her?" Jay asked when they had just taken their seats on the plane. It was because Javier looked very worried and Jay felt that he had to calm his boss down."No, there's no need," Javier replied with a sigh. He couldn't possibly agree to what Jay had said earlier because it would be very risky. The Watsons would be suspicious of him and there was no way he would have anyone come check on Blaire in the middle of the night like this.Jay finally just nodded his head and sat on the chair next to Javier. "When I arrive, I'll go straight to the Watsons' house. Is it okay if I take your car

She suddenly felt guilty for making Javier talk to her when he was busy at work."Blaire," Javier called again because Blaire didn't answer his question. "Are you there? I know you're not okay that's why you called Mr. Jay, right?""Don't lie to me, something must have happened to you, right? I'm going home now then." Javier intended to end his meeting with Chloe and look for a flight right now."No, don't just leave your job, Jav.

"What's wrong, Mr. Andrew?" Now Bella also got up from her seat and walked over to Andrew who was already sitting next to Blaire who was still confused. Anne and Bella were curious to see what Andrew would show Blaire. And Andrew immediately opened the message Ben had sent and checked the photo. He had sent Ben the money after forcing his father to give him the money and stop blocking his credit card at midnight and finally his father gave in."Look, I got that picture from my friend who went to the Smith's company party!" Andrew said pretending to be shocked in front of Blaire even though he was very happy to see the picture Ben sent him. He thought his plan wouldn't go his way but he was wrong, he actually got what he wanted and his plan went smoothly."Oh my God! That's really Javier.

Ever since their meeting, Javier had never wanted to see Chloe again, whether by chance or by design. But now he had to go back to see her again."Hello, Miss Chloe. Come sit down." However, even though he didn't like her, Javier still had to greet her in a friendly manner. Because it looked like Chloe was going to replace Chris at this meeting."Have you been waiting for me for long?

She really hopes that Javier will fall in love with her, and Chloe doesn't care about Javier's married status."No, I just came too," Javier replied.
