The True Heir Strong Men Die Too
"Any Last Words?" Roland asked with a straight face.With a gun pointed at him, Anthony gulped hard. His limbs were weak. He didn't know what to do or the right expression for the situation."You want to put an end to all of this by killing me?" Anthony's voice was barely audible but somehow he managed to speak."I'll kill you right here and right now with this gun," Roland yelled aggressively."Fine!" Anthony closed his eyes waiting for death to embrace him.Roland didn't say anything else as he pulled the trigger.The sound of a gunshot echoed in the warehouse disturbing the peace of the birds outside.While Anthony was in a dire situation, Katherine was worried sick about him."Hey, this is Anthony! Leave a message or hang up now."Katherine threw her phone on the bed and lay flat, staring at the ceiling."Why is he not answering the phone? I haven't reached him for the past two days?" Katherine rolled on her bed worriedly.She knew Anthony was out of town but the thought of him be
The True Heir Did You Kill Him?
"Boss, here's the information about the man you want dead." A masculine voice spoke. He handed over a piece of relative documents to the man standing opposite him."I thought I sent you to get the job done. Why didn't you kill him rather than give me his information?" "That man holds an important identity and he's not a person to be toyed with." The man said with a weary voice.The unknown man held the document firmly. "I thought you were the right person for the job.""I've carried out lots of dirty jobs but this one...this one...I'll end up dead even before getting the job done."The unknown man sighed. He couldn't see the man's face clearly because they were in a dark alley. "You'll have to refund my money then.""..."He heard the man laugh."Refund your money?" He chuckled darkly. "Do you know how much it costs me to get his background check?""Really? Is the information enough for me to get him killed? Is it enough for me to put an end to him?" "That's up to you. My job here i
The True Heir I Want You
"What's the matter with you? Cat got your tongue?" Chairman Lafayette asked again.Roland was taken aback by his father's question. He lowered his head avoiding his father's gaze. Biting his lips out of nervousness."Did you kill him?""I didn't kill him, father!" Roland said almost yelling."Then why are you so worked up when I asked you?""That's because I'm ashamed of myself. I'm so ashamed and unworthy because I can't even handle a gun." Roland bit his lips continuously.Chairman Lafayette chuckled. "Is that the reason you're ashamed of yourself?""I'm weak and lame." Roland sobbed."So you didn't kill the man, what did you do to him then?""I just abandoned him in the warehouse," Roland said."You abandoned him at my warehouse!? That's absurd. Release him or dump him somewhere else." Chairman Lafayette demanded."I want him to suffer a little but I'll surely release him." Roland nodded his head in agreement."I'll give you just this month to have all the fun time you want. As fro
The True Heir His Shy Maid
Seraphina was too stunned to breathe.Did he just kiss her? This was driving her insane.She stretched her hand to the doorknob, hoping to escape but Roland was too smart for her to outsmart."Don't you like it? Stop running away from me." Roland placed her hand around his neck and stared lovingly into her ocean-blue eyes.Seraphina gulped. This was too bad to be true. Her brain stopped functioning as she didn't know what to say to him.Roland raised his brow, gesturing her to speak but the lass was numb.A smile played on his lips, he raised her and carried her in his arms like a princess style and placed her on his bed.OMG! What is he trying to do? Not that? Please don't do that. Seraphina cried inwardly."What...what...are you trying to do?" Seraphina managed to ask."I can see you've finally come back to your senses. What do you think I'm trying to do?" He teased.Seraphina's cheeks flushed red like a tomato. "I'm not mad at you so please don't do it."Roland gave her a questioni
The True Heir Bad News
"You're here!"Roland nodded and went to sit with Butler Lucas on the bench under a giant mushroom in the garden."Hmm, you told me to meet you here." Roland reminded me as he didn't have any plans on staying for long."Of course, it's concerning the Chairman's warehouse. I heard you made use of it." The old man said.Why do they keep asking about the warehouse? His father found out about it because the Butler told him and now the Butler is asking...could it be that it was one of the men that relayed the message to his father?No one was to be trusted in the circle. The only one Roland could trust at that point was himself."Yes, I did. I dealt with the man who almost ruined my face." Roland firmly responded."You finally caught him. Well, you should have told me about it. What did you do to him then?" The Butler asked.Roland rolled his eyes because of the old man's question. He had no choice but to explain in detail everything that happened at the warehouse."I'm glad you didn't get
The True Heir Cancel The Engagement Party
With so much speed, Roland drove to the warehouse. He saw the men standing at the entrance of the building, guarding it.He hurriedly came down from his car and ran towards one of the men."What's the bad news?" Roland asked panting heavily."Sir, the cops are in search of the man we held captive." One of the men said.The other brought out a paper and showed it to Roland.MISSING:ANTHONY ADAMS."He has been declared missing by the cops." The man said.Roland's hands trembled, and his eyes threatened to fall from its socket. His men saw how anxious he was and they were surprised.Hasn't he done any dirty jobs before? They thought maybe their young master was still a novice by all those stuff."He'll get used to it." "The young master is still scared of the cops."They murmured.Roland became furious at their murmurings. "Do I look like someone scared of the cops?"He does look like someone who's scared of the cops but the men wouldn't dare utter the words.They shook their head in
The True Heir Let Him Go
"You wanna cancel your marriage plans with her?" Roland asked in disbelief as he didn't expect much from Anthony."Yes, all thanks to you for ruining my face. How do you expect me to show this face of a joker to her?" Anthony yelled.He endured the pain that came from his mouth.Roland laughed sarcastically."You're ashamed to show your face to her and her family?" Roland mocked.Anthony didn't say a word as he thought about how Katherine will feel.After all, she didn't care about him. She didn't care about how he felt. The only series she thought of all day was Roland and thinking about it made him angrier."I hate you so much, Roland Lafayette!" Anthony cursed. He yelled with the remaining strength in him.Roland pitied the latter because he looked so pitiful.He clapped mockingly at Anthony as he chortle at the latter."Thumbs up!" Roland mocked. "You did good research," Roland said.The table turned around as Roland was the one doing the mocking now.This was one big lesson Antho

As he sat in his study, contemplating the path forward, he realized that her words held a profound truth.

Seraphina's words echoed in his mind, reminding him that there might be more to Alex than met the eye.

Her eyes were puffy, hinting at tears she had shed in his absence. She looked up, her gaze filled with concern and compassion."Roland, I'm so sorry for everything," Seraphina said softly, her voice trembling. "I never wanted this to happen. I never meant to hurt you."Roland sighed, the turmoil within him evident in his weary expression. "Seraphina, I... I don't know what to believe anymore," he admitted, his voice laced with a tinge of vulnerability. "Butler Lucas told me the truth about Alex, about his origins.

Family's Fortune
Roland paced back and forth in his room, his anger simmering beneath the surface. The revelation of the will had shaken him to the core, and he couldn't shake off the feeling of betrayal. Seraphina, sensing his distress, approached him cautiously."Roland, please," she implored, reaching out to touch his arm gently. "There's more to this than meets the eye. Perhaps there's a reason why Alex was named as the heir. We should consider all possibilities before jumping to conclusions."Her words only fueled Roland's frustration. "How can you say that, Seraphina?" he snapped, pulling away from her touch. "After everything we've been through, all the evidence of his true nature, you expect me to believe he's the rightful heir? It's preposterous!"Seraphina's eyes filled with concern as she watched Roland struggle with his emotions. She knew the depths of his convictions, but she also believed in looking at the situation from all angles."Roland, I understand your anger, but we must keep an o
