The Silent Heir Chapter 12: Change!
Upon reaching the apartment, Emily was still in a daze even after Micheal held her hands and led her to the only bed in the room.“You wait here I will go get you some water” Micheal said .“Wait!” Emily said and held his hand .Micheal stared at the shaking hands of his dear wife and began to worry .“Are you okay? Are you feeling pain anywhere in your body? Should I get the doctor? What am I even saying, you let’s go to the hospital this very minute”“No. I’m … I’m okay” Emily fibbed .“You sure ? You do not look like you are okay ? Did something happen? ” Micheal inquired of with a worried look.“You happened!” Said Emily .“What about me?” Micheal asked with a confused look .“You’ve … You’ve changed . You now look like a completely different person . It’s like a different soul has taken over your body” Emily declared .Micheal smirked when he finally realized what this is all about .“Is that all?” He questioned with a smile .“Well.. what else will it be?” Emily asked .Mi
The Silent Heir Clayton again
Micheal walked out of the room and soon approached the car outside his apartment.With a calm expression he entered, “How are things going?” he asked as soon as he sat in the back seat.“It’s just as you predicted young master” Steph who was in the driver’s seat answered.Micheal nodded and took the document beside him.“How did the young madam take the news” Steph asked.Micheal smirked and continued to flip through the documents at a rapid speed without stopping, “What do you think?”Steph looked through the glass and couldn’t understand Micheal.His ways of dealing with pieces of stuff are completely different from his father’s,“I think with your power you can give the whole Kincaid company to the young madam. You don’t need to stress about little peasants like those greedy people” Steph said.Micheal smirked and finally placed the document in his hands down,“You are right. But it wouldn’t be fun if we did it that way. After all the real fun will be happening in a few days. Don
The Silent Heir He knew ?
Seeing Micheal, Clayton clenched his teeth with great hostility.“What are you doing here again? Are you here for another interview?” he asked sarcastically.“You think I am like you who doesn’t even know what to do with my life? Dude please, I know when to stop and reflect on all my mistakes unlike you” Micheal said as a matter of fact and went to stand before Clayton and the receptionist.Seeing his boss standing up for him, the receptionist felt his shoulders rise.This is what a true boss should do.Standing up for their employee when they are in the right.Micheal is indeed worthy of his title as the CEO.If only the receptionist knew that Micheal is not just the CEO, but he is also the president of the company as well.“And what is that supposed to mean? Do you think I am like a low life like you who needs to bootlick to others? No, I will never yield so low just to please others. Remember I am the heir of the Ashton family. Unlike you, who is forever going to be under others,”
The Silent Heir Personal assistant?
It didn’t take long for Calyton to compose himself.“There is no way this poverty-stricken Micheal will know about anything. Maybe he is just pulling my legs” He thought to himself.“You think I will fall for your tricks. You better prepare yourself for defamation. You can not say something so absurd to the heir of the Ashton family and go scott free” Clayton said proudly.Micheal stood there with his arms crossed on his chest, “Really? Do you even think there is something about you that is a slander? Don’t hail yourself”“Be cautious of your words, you Kincaid slave” Clayton roared in anger.Michaels's smiling face quickly vanished.“What did you just call me ?” he asked coldly.Anger is visible in his face.“You heard me. You are nothing more than a slave, a lackey of the Kincaid family. You do not have any right to speak to me in such a manner”Micheal evilly smirked and said nothing.He took out his phone and sent a message.Why should he give out a small revenge when he can ma
The Silent Heir Ashton’s Moving out!
“You gotta be joking. Micheal can never be ..”Slap!Mark hastily slapped his son to stop him from saying anything further.If only he knows how scared he was when he got the news.And also the message about his son losing his life if Mark doesn’t take any action.He would have never worried about such a threat if this was from any other person, but this is right from the president of BYC company who no one has ever heard from.It seems his stupid son has pissed someone he should have.This is the only way not only to save his son but also his whole family.Guess he has to move out of the city as soon as possible.Who knows… Maybe the president wouldn’t just let them off.With this thought in mind, he held Clayton’s ear,“You are coming with me and there is nothing you can do about it”“Ouch… dad… You can not do this to me before Mic… ouch”Clayton's scream could still be heard even after he was dragged out of the company.The receptionist smiled proudly and was just about to speak t

What is going on? Why did I suddenly get a call about Emily being in a hospital”“Venice… Emily was bleeding heavily. I… I don’t know what happened but she suddenly started screaming and held her abdomen, screaming about being in so much pain. And that’s when she collapsed. I didn't know what to do and called 911 ”Rita said everything as it happened and she felt out of breath after.“This is crazy. How can she suddenly be in such a situation? And where was that good for nothing when this happened” Venice asked angrily.“He… He wasn’t in the house when this happened” Rita answered and answered quickly, “but I have called him and he said he is o

Emily is still in the ICU. The doctors are yet to say anything to us” Rita answeredIf one looks closely, one can see that her tensed shoulders have finally dropped.“Now tell me..”Michaels was about to ask what happened when Venice interrupted him.“What are you doing here?”Micheal turned and she was scared to her bones. What is this expression?She has never felt her back this chilled before.She quite remembers Micheal had the same expression on the last visit to their house.But since it wasn’t directed at her, she didn’t think much about it.Who would have thought she would one day experience it herself?Is this the same useless son-in-law she picked?“Who..

After Kincaid saw that Maria had left with Braden, the pretentious act he was putting on with Shine collapsed.Kincaid asked as he sighed, “Shine be honest with me, What are you doing here?”Shine replied with a smirk, “What am I doing here? What are you doing here, while you're still my fake boyfriend?”Kincaid smiles and corrects her, “My fake fiancé. Your fake fiance and not boyfriend”. Shineshoom her head with a smile, “Oh, right.”.Kincaid sit down on a bench near the fountain, and Shine does the same.Kincaid took his phone and sent a message to Jayden and asked, “ So, you saw me with Maria, huh”Shine shrugged her shoulders and said ,“Yeah, I did.”.Kincaid placed done his phone and asked, “ I thought you'd be upset.”Shine smoked and looked away hiding her emotions in her eyes. “Why would I be upset?

Kincaid had just finished with Shine and was walking back to the hotel. He walked towards the elevator and saw a figure he knew very well standing inside. After giving a nod, he entered the elevator and the person did the same. He pressed his floor button and stood there quietly."It's very nice to see you again. Coming back from the bat, I suppose?" Alec asked with a smile.Kim didn't even look at him but smiled as he replied, "Yeah."Alec nodded his head and continued, "Guess your night has been quite eventful. I saw you hitting it off with Maria earlier today. And believe me, she might feel the same."Kim didn't rush to reply or look at him, instead choosing to remain quiet.He felt that Alec often had one interest in mind but always tried to find something to pin on others, and that's exactly what he was doing right now."It's surprising that you, venturing into public political business and being the president and heir to the Crowns family empire, are so interested in other pe

Kincaid walked into his suite and immediately sensed that something was off. With an alert look, he didn't even turn on the lights in the room before he sensed a hand about to attack him. He swiftly dodged to the side and prepared to counterattack.The person attacking him seemed surprised, not expecting him to counter with such strength. Kincaid quickly grabbed the person's hand and swiftly threw them overboard."Ouch," the person groaned in pain as he lay on the floor."Is it over already? I was hoping for more. This is so boring," Jayden's voice echoed in the darkness.Kincaid calmly walked to the switch and turned on the lights, revealing Cole lying on the floor."What are both of you still doing here? I thought you guys might be in your room by now," Kincaid asked, crossing both his hands on his chest."Can you be less serious next time? I may look like a young man, but I'm old in spirit. Have some mercy," Cole said as he struggled to stand up.Kincaid casually glanced at him an

Kincaid walked away into his closet to get something to put on."You can leave the same way you came if there is nothing else. I need to get my beauty sleep as I have some work tomorrow," he said.With that, she felt a surge of pain in her heart and didn't know how to react to this."And I guess it's with Maira, right? You guys have become really close in this short time. Very interesting," Shine said.Kincaid, who had already put on some pants and was about to put on a shirt, smiled."And how is that any of your business? Last I remember, you allowed your friend into your house and even went to the club with him. You can do whatever you want with your life, and I can't do the same? Interesting."Shine was beyond herself in rage. She walked towards the window, about to leave the same way she came, without bothering to answer when he spoke."Oh, and also, I think we've done enough with this fake relationship. I think it's time we let go of this charade so we can both do whatever we wan

The next day, Kincaid arrived at the Pierre mansion, his eyes filled with admiration as he took in the grandeur of the estate. “I'm already there, don't worry I will be with you soon okay” he said with a tender smile .“You sure? I don't want that Maria cockroach to punch on you as soon as you arrive there, "Shine said with gritted teeth. “I knew I to follow you there” “You are cute,” he said and that was enough to shut her up.He couldn't see her but he could sense that she was blusing.“Okay I will coke right to you after this meeting okay” he said and before he could say something else, she hung up.He smiled widely but it soon disappeared when he git down from his car. The mansion stood majestically amidst sprawling gardens, its architecture exuding a timeless elegance. The air was filled with the fragrance of blooming flowers, and the sound of chirping birds added a serene melody to the surroundings.A butler, impeccably dressed in a formal suit, stepped forward to greet Kin

As the lingering silence filled the room, Mr. Pierre shifted gears smoothly, changing the subject to business matters. "Now, let's talk about the collaboration for the new hotel project. I've heard remarkable things about your management skills, Kincaid, and I believe your expertise will be invaluable in this endeavor."Kincaid nodded, appreciating the shift in conversation. "Thank you, Mr. Pierre. I've had successful experiences with hotel projects in the past, and I'm eager to explore this opportunity further. With your support and resources, we can create something truly extraordinary."Over the next couple of hours, Kincaid and Mr. Pierre delved into the details of the new hotel venture. They discussed location possibilities, design concepts, target demographics, and potential challenges they might face. Kincaid's passion for the industry was evident, and Mr. Pierre was impressed with his strategic thinking and attention to detail.After their fruitful discussion, Kincaid stood

After Kincaid left, the warm glow of the evening sun painted the mansion's walls in shades of gold. Mr. Pierre and Maria found themselves sitting in the elegant living room, a gentle breeze rustling the curtains.Mr. Pierre studied his granddaughter's face, noticing the wistful look in her eyes. "Maria, my dear, what are you hoping for with Kincaid?" he asked gently.Maria's calm façade vanished into thin air, replaced by a flicker of arrogance. "Well, Grandfather," she began, "I might not know exactly what I'm hoping for, but there's something about Kincaid that intrigues me. He doesn't appear to be someone who's interested in me, but I can't help but feel drawn to him."Mr. Pierre smiled knowingly, reaching out to hold Maria's hands warmly. "My dearest girl, the heart can be a complex thing. It may not always align with what our eyes see. Kincaid is a remarkable man, and I understand why you find him intriguing. If there's something you desire, I support you wholeheartedly."Maria's

“This feels like heaven”Shine walked into the glamourous mall, its rich decorations and luxurious stores making her feel like she had stepped into a world of glamour and extravagance. The marble floors reflected the shimmering lights of chandeliers hanging from the high ceilings, and the sound of soft music filled the air, adding to the aura of luxury.Cole followed her closely, carrying a plethora of shopping bags from their previous mall visits. “This… This is like the third mall already”. He seemed a bit overwhelmed and exhausted, but Shine was in high spirits. This was the third mall they had visited that day, and she didn't seem worried about the time or money spent. “Cole hurries we need to get more,” she said and run away excitedly, looking nothing like the cold detective Shine. For her, it was the first time she could indulge in something purely for her pleasure, free from work-related stress and responsibilities.Her eyes sparkled like a child in a candy shop as she sca

Shine felt a mix of surprise and embarrassment as she found herself held in an intimate position by Alec. “Ermm, thank you”She quickly tried to pull herself away from him, putting on an angry and disgusted look.Cole, who had placed the shopping bags away, hurriedly stood before Shine protectively, his fists clenched. "Stay away from her! She's my boss, Kincaid's woman," Cole warned Alec with a fierce glare.Alec smirked, raising his hands in a mock surrender. "No need to act alarmed, my friend. I come in peace," he said, his voice oozing with charm. "I never said I'm interested in your boss lady here," he added, looking at Shine with a playful glint in his eyes. "But I have to admit, the detective is quite the beauty. Wouldn't mind having her as my woman."Cole's protective instincts flared up, and he took a step closer, ready to defend Shine's honor. "Back off! She's not interested in you. It's a shams she is only interested in Kincaid “Cole retorted, his voice laced with a war
