The Ultimate Heir. Chapter fifty-seven
When Sophia asked this question, although she didn't want to admit it, she was expecting the shattering news of Zale's death, because she had clearly seen him stabbed from behind, and the chances of anyone surviving such an operation were nil. "After the incident, some mysterious people showed up and took care of the situation. They quickly took care of the security personnel and then disappeared. I think they helped Mr. Zale and left him unharmed. But I don't think you should worry about Mr. Zale. The person who almost died in the incident was Mr. Xavier. He's in a coma right now and his family is ranting all over the place." Sophia was dumbfounded when she heard this. She didn't understand what the nurse was saying. What did she mean that Xavier was the person she needed to worry about?"Are you sure you know what you're talking about? I saw it with my own eyes, Xavier stabbed Mr. Zale. And what mysterious people were you talking about?" Sophia couldn't help but get confused.The n

Zale's brow furrowed as he stared at the seething manager and his burly companions. He hadn't expected his simple shopping trip for a phone to escalate into yet another confrontation. His instincts told him that leaving might be the best option, especially with the mounting anger in the manager's eyes.With a calm demeanor, Zale took a step back, raising his hands slightly in a gesture of surrender. "Look, there's obviously a misunderstanding here. I don't want any trouble. I'll just leave and we can sort this out calmly."The manager's eyes narrowed further, his face contorted with rage. "Misunderstanding? Do you think I'm a fool? You've been causing trouble here for a while, and today, you think you can just walk out of here without consequences? It doesn't work that way. I have finally caught you. Your companion might have escaped, but that won't be the case with you."Zale's confusion deepened. He had never been to this store before, let alone caused any trouble. The manager's a

Zale's grip on the steering wheel tightened as he understood the gravity of the news.The road ahead seemed to blur as his thoughts and feelings swirled.Fear and anxiety clouded his mind, and his reason slowly slipped away. It took everything he had in him to keep going."Why didn't you tell me about this before?" Zale's voice trembled slightly, a mixture of terror and frustration evident in his tone."I've been trying to reach you all this time, but your phone was off," Ace explained in a voice full of urgency.A wave of guilt flooded Zale. He hadn't realized his phone was off as he was so consumed by what was happening at the artifact store and his growing strength.Now the news of his grandfather's critical condition weighed heavily on his conscience."I…..I didn't know," Zale stammered, his words tinged with regret. He had only recently found out that his phone had gone off after the incident at the artifact store. "Tell me, Ace, what hospital is he in? I need to get there right

Zale turned when he heard his name, and his eyes widened in recognition when he saw Ace standing there. Shock was clearly written all over Ace's face. Only moments ago, the head of the Shadow Guard had informed him that they were searching the city for Zale. "Moments ago, I spoke to the leader of the Shadow Guards, and he said that they were searching all over the city for you," Ace muttered, struggling to comprehend the situation."Where is my grandfather? Tell me, is he still alive?" Zale demanded, his voice filled with urgency.Ace's mind raced as he tried to process the situation. It was as if reality had shifted before his eyes, and he had to come to terms with the unexpected turn of events. "Your grandfather is still alive," Ace managed to reply with a mixture of surprise and relief in his voice. He had many questions, but you'd have to save it for later.He glanced at the doctor, silently communicating with a nod.The doctor understood and quickly opened the one-way glass do

*Jenkins Group…Adams was overjoyed when he learned that the Adair Group had transferred the agreed-upon $150 million.With a smile on his face, he swiveled in his office chair.The Adair Group had fulfilled its part of the bargain, leaving the rest for them.However, his train of thought was interrupted when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.He hissed in irritation at who dared disturb him, but finally answered, "Come in."The door opened, and to his greatest surprise, the person turned out to be Azazel Jenkins, his father-in-law.Adams jumped up from his seat immediately and bowed when he saw his father-in-law.He hadn't expected to see him here. Azazel hadn't told him he was coming."I didn't know it was you. Please forgive me if I wasted time asking you to come in. Please take a seat," Adams apologized before stepping aside and gesturing for Azazel to take a seat.Azazel had a sly smile on his face. He shook his head and declined Adams' offer. "Don't worry, I didn't come here

Xavier's parents were shocked when they heard Sophia's words. Confusion was written all over their faces as they tried to make sense of the situation.Sophia's words hung heavy in the air, casting a shadow of confusion and shock over the room. The sterile, white walls of the room seemed to close in on them as they grappled with the unexpected turn of events.The moment Sophia's words weighed on them, the door swung open and the doctor in charge of Xavier's case entered with a purposeful stride, a report in his hand. He was a middle-aged man, his face marked by countless late nights and critical decisions. He wasted no time and began his reports."Mrs. and Mr. Raynott, I regret to inform you that our tests have revealed a serious prognosis for your son's eyesight. The damage sustained is irreparable, and it is very likely that your son will never regain his vision. This is very unfortunate, but we have done our best," the doctor's voice was cold and emotionless as he conveyed the harsh

The sleek red Ferrari glided through the city streets, the wind whipping through Zale's hair as he navigated the urban landscape of the city.Ace held onto his seat, his grip tightening as the speed increased. The tension in the car was palpable, a reflection of the weighty conversation ahead.As the car drove on, the towering skyscrapers and busy streets gave way to a quieter, more secluded area on the outskirts of the city. Finally, Zale brought the car to a stop in a deserted parking lot on the edge of a dense forest. He turned off the engine, and the sudden silence filled the air."Here we are," Zale said, his voice calm, yet with an air of seriousness. He looked at Ace, his gaze unwavering. "Now, let us talk."Ace took a deep breath and prepared himself for what he knew would be a difficult conversation. "Zale, I'm ready to answer any questions you have for me. Tell me, what do you want to talk about?" He asked, even though he already knew what Zale wanted to talk about."You kn

Fear marked Ace's usually calm face as the call hit him like a tidal wave of terror.For the second time in what felt like an eternity, genuine fear and panic coursed through his veins. The first time had been earlier that day when Zale's grandfather had collapsed unexpectedly.As the words of the doctor's urgent call echoed in his head, Ace's thoughts froze for a moment, leaving him in a state of stunned disbelief.It was as if time itself had stopped for a moment to allow his mind to process the shock. His mental gears came to a halt, and he struggled to find his footing amid the onslaught of emotions.He was seized by a terrifying realization - the possible death of Cyprus Adair.The consequences of such a loss weighed heavily on Ace's mind.What would become of the Adair family without their patriarch?How would Zale cope with the absence of the only man who was a support in his life?After what felt like an eternity, a flicker of clarity pierced the fog of panic that had clouded A

CHAPTER 180
As Zale and Ace ventured beyond the gate, the air hung heavy with tension. They arrived in front of the mansion, which was guarded by three security guards.The guards were slightly taken aback when they saw Zale and Ace.Their comrades at the gate hadn't informed them of the arrival of any guest, so they were confused.They didn't have the slightest idea of the fight that had taken place outside; they were completely oblivious.The guard, who appeared to the leader, stepped forward and asked, “Who might you be, sirs?” His voice was polite and respectful.He thought that if his companion had allowed Zale and Ace entry, it meant they were esteemed guests of honor.Ace glanced at Zale and upon seeing the hidden smirk on his face, he understood what was going to happen.“We are honorable guests of your boss. Should you really be standing here asking questions or just step out of the way?” Zale asked, his voice stern.The guard shivered slightly when he felt Zale's gaze on him. “I…I’m so

CHAPTER 179
The guard's eyes widened in shock, his expression transforming into a lethal glare directed at Zale."Who the hell are you, you bastard?" Despite his astonishment, fury seethed in his voice.Zale chuckled softly before responding, "I'm just someone who wishes to see your boss. We can avoid all of this if you tell your colleagues to let me in."The guard's eyes ignited with rage as he retorted, "Bullshit! If you don't want to leave peacefully, I will make you leave myself."The tension escalated, drawing the attention of the other guards who became alert to the hostility emanating from Zale.They stood ready, poised to open fire at a moment's notice if the need arose.Ace moved in closer to Zale and whispered in his ear, "I don't know what you're trying to do, but these guys are well-armed. I trust your decisions, but I must admit we are clearly at a disadvantage here. The shadow guards are nearby. I can send them a message, and they will take out these guys."Zale nodded, seemingly in

CHAPTER 178
In the aftermath of the charged meeting, Zale and Ace headed outside the building, toward the mansion.Zale's mind swirled with a mixture of determination and uncertainty, while Ace, ever stoic, maintained a vigilant presence.As they arrived in front of the mansion, Zale’s phone vibrated in his pocket. It was his grandfather."Zale," Oracle's voice resonated. For the first time in a long time, he called Zale by his name. "I've been monitoring the meeting. Bane's words have validity. Are you certain about this path you're taking?"Zale, undeterred, responded, "I've made my choice, Grandpa. This is a battle I must face, not just for myself, but for those who've suffered unjustly."The last part was talking about Oracle. The old man had gone through a series of emotional breakdowns after his son and his daughter-in-law died. It was one hell of a torture at that time.Oracle let out a sigh, a blend of regret and understanding in his simulated eyes. "I cannot dissuade you, but remember th

CHAPTER 177
The following day, Zale gathered his closest allies in a private meeting. The meeting took place in one of the buildings in Oracle's estate.The atmosphere was charged with tension as he addressed them, laying out the challenges they faced and the imminent battle against Asper.A middle-aged man interjected, "I don't harbor personal grudges against Asper, but I'm willing to assist you."Another guest joined the conversation, expressing disdain, "That kid is a rude brat. I recall the first day he invited me to his place. He subjected me to the worst humiliation of my life. I can never forget that day. Count me in; I'm ready to join and bring him down.”"While I don't hold a personal grudge against Asper, many of his allies are my enemies. Participating in this battle, I aim to indirectly confront my enemies.” Gradually, each person in the room consented to join the battle.Zale sat at the table's forefront, wearing a smile.Once he explained the purpose of the gathering, he observed as

About an hour or so later, Zale arrived at Oracle's estate.Zale went straight to his room the second he entered the mansion.He freshened up and changed his clothes. When he was done, he headed downstairs and had his breakfast.“Where were you last night, sir?” Leia inquired as they strolled out of the dining room.As usual, they were the only ones in the dining hall. Ace was said to have gone out of the mansion early in the morning.Zale chuckled mischievously. “Why, you miss me?”“Cough!” Leia feigned a cough and changed the subject.“Anyway, how did last night go?” She asked, curious.“If you're talking about your performance, I must admit; you did….” Zale began, but Leia cut in."Not that, sir. Ace has already filled me in on that a million times," Leia interjected with a pout. "You know what I'm referring to.”Zale paused as if thinking about it. “Are you by any chance asking about what happened between me and my girlfriend?” His smile had taken a mischievous glint.Leia let out

CHAPTER 175
Zale headed straight back to Oracle’s estate. He needed to have a serious conversation with Ace.He couldn't wait any longer. Asper had begun his move and he wouldn't just sit back and watch.“Now I have stopped to think about it, what later happened to Adams? I didn't see him again last night. I guess the security threw him out. After all, he had attacked me,” Zale muttered, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.‘Does this mean others now know about me?’ Zale mused excitedly.It was pretty easy to guess; Adams wouldn't keep what he saw last night to himself.Zale made it pretty clear last night that he was the one behind all of Jenkins's misfortune, so Adams would most certainly not keep quiet about it.“I’m glad things turned out this way. Although I doubt Adams' words would be enough to convince them.” Zale seemed pleased by the fact that he stumbled upon Adams last night.He didn't plan to suddenly show up claiming to be the new chairman of Adair Group. To him, that wouldn't be

CHAPTER 174
The atmosphere in the room shifted, with Oracle grappling with the unexpected revelation. Zale, still chuckling, tried to ease the tension."Well, Grandpa, surprise! We kept it low-key for a while," Zale said, grinning. He wanted to gauge his grandfather’s reaction.Oracle sighed, shaking his head. "You always find a way to keep me on my toes. I hope you're serious about this, Zale."Zale's smile softened. "I am, Grandpa. Maya means a lot to me."Oracle studied Zale for a moment, then nodded. "As long as you're sincere and treat her well, that's what matters."Zale was a little taken aback when he heard that. He was confused, more like shocked.He had expected the old man to be greatly against the relationship but that didn't seem to be the case.“Seriously?” Zale couldn't help it. “Are you really not against our relationship?” He didn't expect such an outcome.“I mean, why?” Oracle pretended not to know anything.Zale gave the old man a dry look. “You're very bad at acting. You shoul

CHAPTER 173
Before long, Zale was ready to leave. He intended to head directly to his family mansion to visit his grandfather.“I will get going now, darling. Take care. I will call you later in the day.” Zale gently planted a kiss on Maya's forehead before he departed.Maya arranged a car to drive him there, therefore as soon as he arrived outside, he entered the car and left the mansion.Maya’s head guard, despite having the urge to wave at Zale while he was departing, had decided against it.What if all of this was a ploy to make him let his guard down? He couldn't help but think.“I have to be completely sure he isn't going to harm my young Miss. Only after then will I be at ease around him,” the head guard muttered to himself.The journey was long and full of silence. Adams was occupied with his thoughts, and thankfully, the driver wasn't interested in striking up a conversation with him either, so none bothered to say a word to each other.“I don't think I will be able to enter the Adair ma

CHAPTER 172
The room fell into a stunned silence upon hearing Elsher's speculation about Zale's possible connection to Adair Group. The family members exchanged bewildered glances, grappling with the implications of this unexpected twist. Azazel, breaking the silence, furrowed his brows and questioned, "Adair Group? What does that have to do with our troubles?"Elsher, maintaining her composure, explained, "Adair Group has substantial influence and connections. If Zale is indeed associated with them, it explains how he gained the resources and power to orchestrate our downfall.”"I discovered that Ace is aligned with the Adair family when I was researching the mysterious chairman of the Adair Group. Consider this – why would Zale have any association with someone like Ace if they weren't collaborating? It raises questions, especially regarding our acceptance of a contract from Adair Group. After mysteriously losing the contract funds, they still extended a substantial loan to us. Have you ever w
