The True Heir Anthony's Regret
Anthony sat in his room, his mind racing with thoughts of how he was going to apologize to Katherine. He knew he had hurt her deeply and he needed to make things right. He picked up his phone from his bed and dialed her number, but it wasn't going through. He tried again, but still no response.Feeling frustrated, he decided to call her mother, Alvira. As soon as she answered the phone, he knew something was wrong. Her voice trembled as she spoke, and he could hear the emotion in her words."Anthony, it's Katherine's mother. I'm sorry to tell you this, but Katherine is dead."Anthony was shocked. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. "What? How? What happened?" he stammered.Alvira's voice trembled even more as she explained. "My husband and I found her in her room. We called for an ambulance, but it was too late. They took her for an autopsy to determine the cause of death. We also found some pills next to her, which means she took them to kill herself."Anthony was speechless.

His expression was sober and sad, and he drove slowly, lost in thought.When he got home, his parents were waiting for him, worriedly. His mother, Mrs. Maria, was the first to speak. "Anthony, my dear. What happened? Why did you leave the house in such a hurry? Why are you not happy? And why haven't you been home for days?"Anthony took a deep breath and sat down with his parents. He explained everything in detail, from his fight with Katherine to her death and the news that he was the father of her child.His father, Mr. Williams, looked at him with concern. "I'm sorry, son. I had no idea you were going through all this. You should have told us."Anthony shook his head. "I didn't know how to tell you, dad. I didn't want to burden you with my problems."Mrs. Maria hugged him tightly. "Oh, my dear. We're here for you. We'll help you through thi

He knew that he needed to find a way to move on, but he also knew that he couldn't just forget about her.He thought about the people in Katherine's life, especially Roland Lafayette, the man she had loved before she met him. He knew that Roland had hurt Katherine in the past, but he also knew that she still cared for him.Anthony grabbed his laptop and searched for Roland on the web. He found his contact information and called him, feeling nervous and unsure of what to say.Roland was going through a lot, with his father still in the hospital and his half-brother, Alex, being a threat to the company. He answered his phone without looking at the caller ID, not realizing that it was Anthony."Hello?" he said, wearily."Hi, Roland. It's Anthony," Anthony said, hesitantly.Roland was surprised to hear from Anthony, as they hadn't spoken in years. "Anthony? What do you want?""I need to talk to you. Can we
The True Heir Partnership With Alex

She saw the weariness etched on his face and knew not to bother him with idle chatter. She quietly went about her maid duties, dusting the furniture and tidying up the room, while Roland retreated to his bedroom.As he lay on his bed, Roland couldn't stop thinking about how to persuade Alex to leave him and the company alone. He knew that Alex was a formidable
The True Heir A Donor
Roland's phone rang loudly, interrupting his leisurely Sunday morning. He checked the caller ID and saw it was Butler Lucas. He answered the phone with a hint of concern in his voice."Good morning, Butler. Is everything okay?" Roland asked."Mr. Roland, I'm sorry to disturb you on your day off. But it's an emergency. The doctor needs your attention and he needs you to come as soon as possible," Butler replied, sounding extremely worried.Roland's heart skipped a beat. He knew how important Chairman Lafayette was to the company, and if he was in the hospital, it couldn't be good. "What happened? Is he okay?" Roland asked, trying to keep his voice steady."I can't tell you over the phone. You need to come to the private hospital right away. Please hurry, Mr. Roland," Butler said, urgency creeping into his tone.Roland hung up the phone and quickly got dressed. He didn't have time to choose his outfit carefully, so he grabbed the first suit he saw and put it on haphazardly. He ran out
The True Heir Blood Is Thicker Than Water
After Alex arrived at the hospital and was confirmed as a matching donor, the medical team quickly set to work preparing for the blood transfusion. The doctor explained the process to both Alex and Roland, reassuring them that it was a routine procedure that was done all the time."Okay, Alex, we're going to start by inserting a needle into your arm to draw blood," the doctor said, gesturing for Alex to lie down on the hospital bed.Alex nodded and lay down, trying to stay calm. The doctor used a sterile needle to draw blood from Alex's arm, which was then sent to the lab for testing. While they waited for the test results, Alex was given fluids to help replenish his blood supply.Once the lab results confirmed that Alex's blood was a match for Chairman Lafayette, the medical team began the transfusion process. They inserted a needle into Chairman Lafayette's arm and connected it to a blood bag containing Alex's blood. The blood flowed through a tube and into Chairman Lafayette's
The True Heir Take Over
Roland sat beside his father's hospital bed, watching as he slept soundly. The past few days had been a whirlwind of emotions for him. He couldn't believe that his father, the Chairman of Lafayette Industries, was in such a critical condition.As he sat there lost in thought, his half-brother, Alex, walked into the room. Roland was surprised to see him there, but before he could say anything, Alex spoke up."I'm glad the donation has been successful," he said, his voice surprisingly soft.Roland was taken aback. He had never expected Alex to step up and help out in such a critical situation. He looked at Alex with gratitude in his eyes."Thank you, Alex," Roland said. "I really appreciate it."Alex shrugged, "It's nothing. It's the least I could do."They both sat in silence for a few minutes before Alex spoke up again."Look, Roland, I know we've had our differences in the past, but I want you to know that I'm here for you and dad."Roland was surprised by Alex's words. He had alway

"I should have treated him better. Now, I have to make up for it."As she got closer to the Lafayette Group, Debbie's heart started to race. She could feel the sweat on her palms and her breath quickened.

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.
