It was as if his intention to embarrass her was not sufficient; he also took it upon himself to make her appear foolish.The motive behind Zale's request for her to bow at his feet, only to retract it at the last moment, seemed clear to her. It appeared to be a deliberate act intended to assert his dominance and superiority over her.With a face full of disgust and shame, Kate arose and walked out of the hotel.As Kate departed, she made a conscious effort to avoid making eye contact with the bystanders. She wanted to avoid any further embarrassment that could arise from their gazes.As she stepped out of the hotel lobby and settled into her car parked just outside, her mind was consumed with thoughts of disbelief and resentment. "How on earth did he manage to acquire such an exorbitant sum to afford a $10 million suite? I'm convinced he must have stolen it," she pondered, her sadness evident. She couldn't help but yearn for Za

Early the next morning, Zale was woken up by the gentle knock on his door.Groggy and disoriented, Zale slowly opened his eyes, the soft morning light filtering through the curtains. He sat up in bed, rubbing his eyes to chase away the remnants of sleep. The knock on the door repeated, a little louder this time, jolting him fully awake.With a yawn, Zale swung his legs over the side of the bed and stood up, his feet sinking into the plush carpet. He glanced at the clock on the bedside table—it was still early, but he wondered who could be knocking at his door at this hour.Curiosity piqued, Zale shuffled towards the door, his steps muffled by the thick carpeting. As he reached for the doorknob, he hesitated for a moment, a fleeting thought of caution crossing his mind. But he shrugged it off, reminding himself that it was probably just the room service.Turning the doorknob, Zale pulled the door open to reveal a figure standing in the hallway. It was a man, but he had even seen him b

Despite the enigma surrounding their purpose, he couldn't deny the allure and elegance of those luxurious vehicles. A quiet wish stirred within him, yearning for the opportunity to one day experience the interior of one of those cars, to feel the power beneath his fingertips and be transported in such style. Nonetheless, while he enjoyed the sight of the cars, an unusual event unfolded. Contrary to its expected course, the car abruptly changed direction and started moving towards him.

After Zale agreed to come with them, Jolene swiftly informed the guards to prepare the vehicle for departure. Given their intention to minimize attention and the proximity of their location to the hotel, they felt compelled to make a quick departure.Ace took charge of guiding Zale into the car positioned in the middle of the convoy. Accompanying Zale, he entered the vehicle, while Jolene opted to remain in the car directly following behind them.Once everyone had boarded the vehicles, they set off toward their destination—the grand mansion of the Adair family.In the car where Zale and Ace sat, a profound silence enveloped them, and neither spoke a word.Zale was deeply engrossed in his thoughts, envisioning what it would be like to encounter someone who truly belonged to his family. He found himself unsure of how exactly to feel, experiencing a blend of curiosity and a hint of anxiousness. The thought of meeting a real family member brought forth a myriad of emotions within him.

Zale, feeling uncertain about how to respond, took a seat on the chair positioned at an angle opposite to his grandfather. Upon laying eyes on the old man who professed to be his grandfather, all of the uncertainties that had plagued him vanished. He required no external validation to affirm that the old man was, indeed, his grandfather. The unmistakable resemblance between them served as undeniable evidence.As Zale settled into his seat, he inquired, "I've heard that you're my grandfather. Can you confirm if that's correct?" Despite having a strong inclination that the old man was indeed his grandfather, he desired a definitive confirmation to dispel any lingering doubts.The old man nodded, a smile gracing his face. The sheer warmth radiating from his smile was a testament to the immense joy he felt upon reuniting with his long-lost grandson. The loss of his son, Zale's father, had left him with zero hope of ever encountering his own descendant again, making this reunion all the
The Ultimate Heir. Chapter twenty-one
Zale, having finished his heartfelt conversation with his long-lost grandfather, was led down a labyrinthine corridor of the magnificent Adair mansion, with Ace by his side.The walls were adorned with priceless artworks, their vibrant colors dancing in the soft glow of ornate chandeliers that hung like crystalline constellations above. The air carried a faint scent of aged wood and nostalgia as if the very essence of the family's history permeated the very walls.As they approached the door to his designated room, Zale's breath caught in his chest. He had mentally prepared for the reunion with his estranged family, but nothing could have prepared him for the sheer opulence that awaited him behind those doors. Ace, his new assistant, stood by his side, an enigmatic smile playing at the corners of his lips, almost as if he knew the impact this sight would have on Zale.The grand double doors swung open with a gentle creek, revealing a room that could only be described as a sanctuary

The young woman guided Ace and Zale to the section of the boutique where they could try on high-end designer clothing, as per Ace's request. Due to her belief that Ace was the prominent one, she disregarded Zale and failed to give him any attention."Sir, in this section, we showcase the finest clothes the market has to offer. Feel free to choose any that catch your eye. Once you've made your selection, kindly proceed to the first counter, and I'll be there to assist you. The dressing room is just behind you, where you can try on any garments you're interested in. Enjoy your shopping!" The young woman conveyed with a cheerful smile before excusing herself.Once she left, Ace and Zale commenced their shopping expedition.Ace found himself somewhat perplexed by Zale's clothing choices.He had anticipated Zale opting for something sophisticated that would align with his stature, yet the reality was quite the opposite.Zale instead opted for simpler and less elegant garments.Respecting Z

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

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

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

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

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
