The Secret Successor CHAPTER 289
Liam’s voice made Harry let go of his mobile.Harry picked it up and quickly cut the call.Liam was not surprised at all. He tossed the mobile on the floor and crushed it under his boot.“Why would Harry call your mother’s mobile right now, Kyra?” Liam asked in a loud voice. “Do you think it’s just to ask you, or is he trying to make you and your mother his ‘second’ family?”“Liam! That’s enough!” Charlotte got up from the couch.“I bet he’s bought a villa in the suburbs,” Liam didn’t back down. He shifted his gaze to Kyra and walked toward her. “If you stay with your mother, you’re going to be considered a bigger fool than her. I’m not gonna say more, so take care. If you need anything from me, I’ll only be a phone call away.” He climbed up the stairs and went past her.Kyra’s mouth stayed down all this while. She couldn’t speak a word or even think properly right now. Her world felt like it had broken apart because she would no longer be seeing Liam regularly anymore. She and her da

“You are…” Kyra’s gaze slowly but surely turned somewhat hostile. “Regan’s assistant, aren’t you? What are you doing here?”“I… I am just…” Jessica fumbled for words.“You what?” Kyra looked annoyed. “I only asked you a simple question. WHAT-ARE-YOU-DOING-HERE?”“T-The doctor that’s treating his mom is my friend,” Jessica said, pointing at Russell, “I’m also getting treated along with his mother.”“Oh, but you need to leave,” Kyra spoke without hesitation, waving her finger as if telling Jessica to step out.“Kyra,” Russell intervened and whispered to her in a low voice. “She’s a guest. It’s not appropriate to tell a guest to leave like that. There’s a room inside, so let’s just adjust. The three of us can sleep in one room, or you two can sleep in one room, and I’ll sleep in the kitchen.”“You don’t have to do that,” Kyra didn’t listen to him and frankly spoke out. “We’ll just make her leave.”“Kyra, please don’t do this. What will my mother think if you send the guest out like this?

The next morning.Russell woke up early, but Jessica and Elora were both awake. Not just that, Elora was helping Jessica cook breakfast while sitting in the kitchen. What greatly surprised Russell was that she was sitting on the floor and not in the chair.When was the last time Elora sat on the floor? Russell didn’t even remember it. So, he was just in shock when he saw his mother sitting on the floor like a normal person does.“M-Mom…” He kneeled and hugged her. “Is this the effect of Sansa’s medicine?”“Yeah, but I’m cutting onions,” Elora said. “You should go, you’re going to shed tears.”But Russell didn’t care. He kept hugging her. From the smell of her cloth to her sweat, everything made him extremely comfortable.Seeing the mother and son like this, Jessica’s eyes teared up. “Sansa said just yesterday that your mother’s recovery progress is faster than she expected, and that’s probably because of you who has been giving her a strict diet for a long time. She said that in one y
The Secret Successor CHAPTER 292
Even though Roddick was advised to stay in the hospital under the doctor’s supervision for at least a week, Roddick didn’t even stay one hour after he woke up in the morning. He ignored the discomfort in his crotch and left the hospital with the help of his butler, Ivan.On his way home, he remembered Liam. “Liam Lynn. I thought he only had a body acquired from years of working out in the gym, but he’s a monster. I feel like I shouldn’t mess with him, but now that he’s no longer Kyra’s father, he’s nothing more than a stranger to me. I can do whatever I want with him, right?”Ivan had a rather sad look on his face because Harry had already told him of the delicate situation Roddick was in. Since Roddick would eventually find out about his condition, Harry had to tell Ivan so he would stay with Roddick all the time and take care of him.“You don’t have to worry about Liam, Young Master,” Ivan replied while looking in the rear view mirror. “Because Master Harry is already on that missio
The Secret Successor CHAPTER 293
“Excuse me for a second.” Regan told Jessica, then went to the side.Jessica wondered who called him because most calls would come to her mobile as she was supposed to manage his calls, all but personal ones.Regan answered the call.“Regan Creed,” Charlotte’s voice was neutral. “I want to talk to you about a big business deal. It will greatly benefit both of us. When can we meet?”“I wouldn’t have answered your call if you and Liam were still together,” Regan responded, “but since I heard this morning that you two have applied for divorce, I will listen to what you have to say. As for when we can meet, how about now?”“Now?”“Yeah. Come over to the Creed Zone.” He ended the call.“This old punk…” Charlotte hissed through gritted teeth. “He’s as rude as ever. If not for the profits I earn from this deal, I wouldn’t have ever called him!”In the farmhouse.The house had been pretty silent since Jessica left. Elora didn’t enter Kyra’s room again, even though she very much wanted to talk
The Secret Successor CHAPTER 294
FOR YOU.Kyra repeated these two words a lot because they worked like a charm. Every time she wanted to win an argument or get her job done, she said along the lines of ‘I left my mom for you.’Russell didn’t get frustrated by her approach, at least not yet. They didn’t spend the entire day in the farm house. Upon her insistence, Russell took her on a drive on the superbike that he had given away to Sansa. He didn’t have to tell Kyra that it was given to him by Regan because it no longer belonged to him.Kyra made Russell drive fast. For her, he had to drive at speeds over 100 kmph. She wanted him to hit 100mph, but he made it clear that it was beyond him. So, she sat in the driving seat and took him for a ride that he would probably never forget in his life. Even though they had no protective gear other than helmets, Kyra reached 200kmph. All Russell heard was the sound of the wind and the engine blasting in his ears while his heart danced in his mouth. He ended up squeezing Kyra’s b

In Roddick’s villa.Roddick had tied up all of his friends, except for Natasha and Scarlett who had locked themselves in the washroom.His friends were begging him to let them go. They promised him they wouldn’t tell anyone about him becoming incapable of having sex, at least from what the girls that had entered the room with him told others and laughed about it.Roddick wanted to kill all of them, but Ivan convinced him that some kind of punishment would be better because some of his friends were also sons of billionaires.Roddick felt so anxious and unsettled at the moment he couldn’t even think of a punishment. He just told Ivan to deal with them so they would never open their mouths, and then Roddick locked himself up in a room. It just happened to be the same room where Natasha and Skarlett had hid in the bathroom.Ivan dealt with the issue using his wits. He told everyone that he had their nude pictures and videos, and that if they so much as ever let a word out wrongly about Ro
The Secret Successor CHAPTER 296
At one of the famous beauty shops of the country.Natasha and Scarlett were sitting outside. Both of them looked happy and excited because Roddick had added 100 million dollars to Natasha’s account to just thank her for the pictures and videos she had given him. He also gave Skarlett a million dollars as extra.“Why do you want me to buy a beauty shop, sis?” Natasha asked. “I was thinking that we should do real estate now that we have so much money.”“Real estate is still too early for you. Buying a beauty shop is way better because you know how this field works,” Skarlett explained. “Luxury is for privileged people. And we’ll offer our services to such people who think that the more money we charge, the better it is for them. We make more money by making the privileged feel even more privileged. For that we’ll need to buy an already established shop which has loyal elite customers.”“So you want to earn more with less customers, huh.”“Not just that. A beauty shop is where the rich f
