The Secret Successor CHAPTER 471
With her slender waist touching the wall, Kyra was waiting for Russell to go back into his room. It was silent for a few seconds. “Did he leave?” She opened the door, and to her shock, he was standing right next to the door.“What are you doing here?” he asked rather coldly, arms folded across the chest, standing on one leg and leaning his back to the wall. Kyra’s expression immediately changed into that of a serious one. She stood straight and confidently said, “That’s my question. What are you doing with Karensa Raer? Is this your way of getting back at me?”Russell slightly frowned. “I don’t get it. Why do you care who I stick with after you basically kicked me out of the party without even trusting my words?”“You’re sticking to that ‘being innocent’ script, I see,” Kyra squinted her eyes. “If you’re truly innocent, you wouldn’t have given up so easily. You would have come to my house and at least tried to prove yourself.”“Huh, you talk like a lawyer. It’s always the man that me

By the time Kyra came home, she was surprised to see Regan talking with her mom.“Cyber attack, you say…” Charlotte looked surprised.“Yes, I have enough evidence to prove it to you, if you want,” Regan told her. “Our government wants to control my game. We both know that, but that’s only a part of their plan. Their main goal has always been to regulate the internet of our country and the world and rule the digital era. For that, they’ll launch a cyber attack which affects many sectors, including the banking sector. With that as an excuse, they’ll pass new bills that’ll remove the dollar and bring the crypto currency on board. Even the global internet will become highly regulated with every user given a specific digital ID. That means, only those they allow will be able to play my game or even open your banking system portal.”“That sounds a big stretch, Mr. Regan,” Kyra opined as she sat next to her mother, not closely but a foot away. “You’re talking about the government monitoring

Russell bought a new laptop and was busy installing applications in the new hotel room they were staying at. A part of him wanted him to bet on the games and earn more money, but he already had enough money in his bank account. So, why keep earning like a mad man? He thought this way. Nevertheless, he began to look at the Raer family and the Lynn family and the history they had. Most of the information he found online sounded too good to be true.Elora, on the other hand, was talking with the restaurant owner who was a woman in her forties, but she was wearing a red tank top and short blue jeans, despite being fat. And she didn’t even comb her hair properly, so she looked stupid and ugly to the eyes.“I think our neighbor takes drugs. I hear him shouting from the past hour,” Elora complained.“Oh, he’s probably just talking with his wife or something,” the owner replied casually.“No. Why don’t you please look into it?”“Fine, fine.” Even though she said that, she had no intention of

A family of five it was, and all five of them did not like each other, which made living together a literal hell for them.The father was a plumber. Recently, they lost their house because he was unable to pay the mortgage, and so they moved to this hotel. Since then, the wife was never polite with her husband. And the teenage daughters were too busy fighting for the mobile that they couldn’t care less about their parents’ quarrels.Their son, Bosner, was about nine years old. And he would look at others as if they were to be blamed for his hardships.Currently, Bosner was sitting next to an adult stranger in the cafeteria built on the southern side of the hotel. He gave gooseberries to this man and asked for his mobile for playing a game. The adult gave his mobile. Bosner played the online game, challenged his sisters and defeated them and got a good laugh out of it.“Can I take this mobile?” Bosner asked the adult man.“You want to take what?” The adult man was shocked. “You’re stil

Benjamin’s friend, Shadow, reached Teresa’s house on foot, but he was moving so fast he appeared as nothing but a faint black blur in the CCTV cameras.The dogs outside the estate didn’t even sense him and were busy eating their breakfast meals.Shadow entered the building. The first person he saw was Jennifer who was busy checking the new jewelry she bought.Arnold was sleeping in his room. Viola was quarreling with her brother.It didn’t take long for Shadow to find the hidden entrance into the underground base, and when he entered it, he was surprised by how big it was.“Damn, this base looks like it was built over two centuries ago…” he thought. As he explored the chambers, he noticed that there were many animal kinds there, as well as some humans being experimented on. Shadow had seen much more gruesome things, so what he saw now did not faze him.He noticed a particular cell, where people in white suits and masks were experimenting on a child who looked about five or six years o

Benjamin stopped at a small house to deliver the pizza. The young lady that was standing outside took the pizza but began to walk into her house without paying.“Excuse me, you didn’t pay yet, ma’am,” Benjamin reminded her.“I know,” she said, turning back. “But a few weeks ago, I was walking down the road, talking with a friend on my mobile. Some guy riding a scooter came in my way and then snatched the mobile from me and left quickly.”“So?” Benjamin looked confused. “What does that have to do with paying for the pizza?”“It has everything to do with it because you also came on a two-wheeler and reminded me of that terrible experience I had,” she blurted. “So, for compensation, I took the pizza for free. To be honest, this isn’t enough for compensation, but I’ll settle with it.”“Ma’am, everything you just said is being recorded with the camera in my helmet,” Benjamin said. “If I go to court with this, you’ll be forced to pay a few thousand dollars for wasting my time and effort.”“

“Mom, if I tell you that there’s a group that operates from the shadows that wants to control and subjugate humanity for all the wrong reasons… what would you say?” Russell asked his mother right after coming to the room and sitting on the chair.“Did you read some nasty news column or something?” she asked back.“No.” Russell kept staring at her.“Well, if there really is such a group, then the common people would know it sooner or later, don’t you think?” Elora opined.“What if they don’t know?”“Then… humanity is doomed, unless they can resist with their guns and their sheer number,” Elora said. “Nothing beats numbers, so it won’t be easy for the worldly powers to subjugate humanity in this day and age even if all the governments join hands and try to oppress them.”“Yeah, I think the same, but these people in the shadows do not operate in public,” Russell said as he remembered his talk with Benjamin that happened not long ago. “They have been hiding in the shadows and are ruling

Gage was adding new fish to the aquarium in Regan’s office. “When are you going to tell Russell, Boss? You are going back and forth on this decision these past few days. It hurts me to see you struggle so much for everything even at your age.” He said these words, knowing just how many pills Regan was taking everyday just to keep his old body going. “Though I don’t believe Russell is capable of succeeding you, he’s still your grandson. He’s got your blood in him, so I will give him my full support no matter what.”“You’ve got your father’s loyalty in you, Gage,” Regan sipped on some wine. “I appreciate that, even though I don’t say it to you directly. You know that, don’t you?”“I do,” Gage softly said.Regan looked at the fish in the aquarium which kept opening their mouths as widely as they could. “Look at those fish, trying to breathe oxygen, working so hard to keep their little lives going in that small aquarium. If those meager fish got so much tenacity, then how much determinati
