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

The True Heir He's Back
"Oh my goodness! They've found Anthony." Anthony's mother exclaimed out of excitement. She jumped up repeatedly and even jumped into her husband's embrace."There's every reason for you to get excited. Let's go to the police station." Anthony's father said with a blissful smile on his face.Their son has been missing for a couple of weeks and they've got every right to be excused since he has been found.They couldn't wait to deal with the person who held Anthony captive."You're right dear." The excited woman held onto her small purse, ready to leave the house."Don't be in a hurry, have your lunch first." Her husband said with a gentle tone."The maids will pack the lunch up for me. I'll have to share it with my son." She said."Such a considerate mother." They both chuckled hard.

The True Heir Heaviness In His Heart
Anthony's mother, Mrs. Maria, bustled around the kitchen, preparing a spread of Anthony's favorite foods and snacks. She hummed to herself as she set out plates and glasses, her eyes lighting up with joy every time he took a bite."Are you enjoying it, my love?" she asked, beaming at him.Anthony nodded, his mouth full of food. He had barely spoken since he had returned home, still reeling from the trauma of his captivity.Once he had finished eating, his parents gestured for him to sit opposite them at the dining table. His father, Mr. William, cleared his throat."Son, we need to talk about what happened to you," he said, his voice heavy with concern. "You have bruises on your face, and you were missing for weeks. We need to know what happened."Anthony hesitated, his mind flashing back to the horrors he had endured. But he knew that he needed to tell them the truth."I was kidnapped," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "I was held captive by someone who wanted to hurt me."

Today was the day he had been waiting for his entire life – he was finally going to take over as CEO of the Lafayette Group, the massive conglomerate that his father had built from scratch.As he got out of bed, his maid Seraphina was already waiting for him, ready to help him get dressed. She had been with him since he was a child, and he trusted her completely. She picked out a sleek black suit for him, with a crisp white shirt and a red tie to match the company colors.Roland took a deep breath and looked at himself in the mirror. He was ready. He walked down the stairs to find his father, Chairman Lafayette, waiting for him alongside the Butler."Good morning, son," his father said, smiling warmly. "Are you ready for your big day?"Roland nodded, feeling a surge of pride and responsibility. "I'm ready, Dad."They walked out to the waiting limousine, where the chauffeur opened the door for them.

Roland arrived early, feeling a sense of apprehension as he walked up the long driveway lined with oak trees.When he entered the house, he found his father and his newly-discovered half-brother Alex sitting in the living room, deep in conversation."Roland, good to see you," Chairman Lafayette said, standing up to greet him. "I'm sorry about all of this. I had no idea that Alex existed."Roland nodded, feeling a mix of sympathy and anger towards his father. How could he have kept such a huge secret from his own family for all these years?Alex stood up, his eyes flashing with a mix of defiance and desperation. "I want my share of the company, Lafayette. I want what's rightfully mine."Chairman Lafayette sighed heavily. "I understand that, Alex. And I'm willing to work with you to come to a fair settlement.

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.
