The Secret Successor CHAPTER 270
After escaping, Russell wanted to tell the press about the kidnapped children, but William advised him against it because it would unnecessarily attract the anger of the Red Circle, which was a worldwide organization that many elites were part of. Even the Lynn family had to be careful when dealing with them, or they might kidnap Kyra or Russell some day, William told him.This made Russell want to grow stronger all the more.Even though the Lynn family owned multiple media channels, they still couldn’t publish about the real story that had happened.Russell brought the kids to the Lynn estate, and he told the maids what had happened. The kids were all taken to the dorms, and their details were collected so they could be sent to their homes.Viola reunited with her mother. She didn’t tell her mother what happened because Russell told her not to.Russell was leaving to the hospital to see Kyra, but then William showed him the zip-tie that was tied to the back door of his Audi R8 and sh

By the time Russell went to the hospital, the testing was done, and Leslie confirmed her doubts. “She’s lost her pregnancy, Mr. Russell,” Leslie expressed her sadness now. She wondered why Kyra was already pregnant when she only had married a few weeks back, but then she believed that Kyra and Russell might have done ‘that’ a few months back, and then the pregnancy forced them to marry early. “I’ve already spoken to her mother, and she said she’s going to come. If Kyra wakes up before that, call me. I’ll talk with her.”“What’s the reason?” Russell demanded an answer. Even though the baby wasn’t his own, he felt bad. “Why did she suddenly miscarry…”“We’re still conducting tests on that,” Leslie said. “But as far as we know, her stomach is severely upset, so whatever she ate last night likely caused this phenomenon.”Russell’s eyes slowly but surely widened. What she ate last night? Didn’t she eat dinner at his hotel the other night? Does that mean, the wonderful dinner meal at Tuna W

Russell found himself driving Kyra’s car and heading straight to Tuna Waves, even though he wanted to stay next to his wife, given she was in a bad situation. He was not expecting to get anything out of it. He just wanted to be with her and give some support because he believed that he should.“Why is it that there’s some crazy person in every home? It used to be Jennifer back in my home, and now it’s Charlotte,” he honked a lot more than usual because he was both frustrated and angry. The veins in his neck throbbed, making it difficult for him to breathe freely. “She wants to investigate? Sure, but how’s she going to ask questions? Does she want to expose that Kyra lost her pregnancy? She’s just crazy.”At the Lyncher hospital.Kyra was yet to wake up. Charlotte was no longer crying. In fact, she was arguing with her husband and looked far from the same woman who just cried a lot for what had happened to her daughter.“What will happen if I support Regan’s game with my bank?” she ask

At Tuna Waves.“Why haven’t you married yet?” a female worker named Caroline asked Irene. “You looked so homely. I’m sure there are some nice guys that would marry with their eyes closed.”“If it was up to me, I’d have long married some millionaire,” Irene sighed, “but my dad wouldn’t even let me date anybody. I had to lie to him about this job, too, because he would never agree with me working as a receptionist even though it’s a five-star hotel.”“You really have a controlling father.”“It’s better than having no father,” Irene said, knowing how many struggles Jessica had to go through and had to stop her education after highschool. “My dad has done so much for me, so I think I should marry the guy he selects for me, but of course, I need to like the guy as well.”“And when will your father find you this ‘chosen’ guy?”“He wants me to get a good job first,” Irene said. “He thinks I should have a job and have some experience before marriage. And that’s exactly what I’m doing.”Just t

A minute earlier.In his office, Seth was talking with his ex-wife on the phone.“If you are okay with it, I’ll marry you again,” she said. “I’m sure our kids will be happy.”“Uh, I will think about it,” saying that Seth ended the call. He smiled happily because his obstinate and egotistic ex-wife was now asking him to marry her again. “It seems Roddick has spoken with her. To think it’d be so easy to make her change her mind… money really talks.” Just then, he remembered that he had mixed in Kyra’s food with whatever powder that Roddick had given him. He couldn’t smile anymore. “I don’t think I should work in this hotel anymore. I will ask Roddick to find me a better hotel. If he wants it, he can even make me the CEO of a chain of hotel businesses.”The door opened, and Russell entered the room with a broom in his hand.“M-Mr. Russell,” Seth could straight away tell from the body language that something wasn’t right. “What are you—”BAM~!Russell smashed Seth’s face with the broom fr

Roddick was enjoying with girls in the infinity pool in his private villa. His personal butler, Ivan, came to him and delivered a rather shocking message.“S-She was pregnant?” Roddick was confounded for a second. “Don’t tell me… she was carrying Trevor’s baby?”“It seems like it, sir,” Ivan said. “And now, the baby is gone. If the hotel manager speaks up, it’ll be bad for us.”“Then kill him. Tonight itself.”“Yes,” Ivan said and walked away, talking on his mobile. Already arranging men to deal with Seth.Roddick sipped on whiskey and was able to smile rather amusedly. “I was only trying to mess with her periods so she wouldn't be pregnant, but to think she was already pregnant… Haha, talking about killing two birds with one stone. I’m starting to understand why Kyra had agreed to marry Russell so urgently. It’s to hide the fact that she was pregnant. She did well hiding the truth, but in the end, she failed miserably. This is a time for celebration.” He joined the girls and celebrat

Madison’s scream was as loud as any woman in the world could possibly scream. Naturally, many people nearby came rushing into the house and helped with James’ situation.They managed to bring him down and save him, all thanks to Madison who had grabbed his legs and kept him from choking to death.Though the people showered James with very many questions, he didn’t answer any of them. He wasn’t in a position to talk just yet because his throat hurt a lot. His eyes were also burning. Everything felt weird, to say the least, but the memory of Amelie leaving with some random dude still played in his mind, and it brought tears into his eyes again.Madison didn’t leave James’ side. Her husband was also there. They called his parents and told them what happened. Arnold, Jennifer, and Viola rushed home in a hurry.Meanwhile, in the Heller Tower.Harry was talking with someone on the mobile. “S-She lost her pregnancy? What the fuck do you mean?”“From what I know, your son is responsible for i

Harry hurried out of his office and rushed to his son who was about to enter the elevator. Roddick saw Harry and thought he was coming to beat him again, so he ran down the stairs.Harry chased him, but Roddick was too fast to catch up. Harry purposely slid down the stairs and hit his shoulder to the wall and cried out.Roddick stopped and frowned. “Tsk,” he ran back up but kept himself two feet away from his father. “Are you alright?”“Listen, Roddick,” Harry grunted. “Liam is here. I don’t know how, but it’s safe to assume he knows that you hurt Kyra. Otherwise, there’s no reason for him to come looking for you right now when his daughter is in the hospital. You should run away and hide from all eyes until the heat goes down. Go!”Roddick, however, removed the mask on his face. “So what if he knows? I’ve made arrangements so that he won’t be able to prove anything. Why should I still run?”“Stop saying nonsense and listen to me this once,” Harry got back to his feet and grabbed his
