The Underestimated Secret Heir 13: A Shareholder
Inside the manager's office, he was excited to see Rex, whom he thought would be angry after the assault with a broad face."You see, Mr. Rex, you're the most tolerant person I've ever come across in my life; after a while of embarrassment, you still have a broad look on your face. I'm much happier to see you happy," Mr. Darius uttered."It's nothing, sir; after all, they are humans, so they are capable of misbehaving at times," Rex replied."Thank you once again for your understanding. Uhm, anyway, the reason why I called you for this office talk was to inform you about a deal our company has arranged lately. We've been looking for a partnership as our shareholder's percentage is dropping, and seeing your attitude here shows you're worthy of being trusted. I don't know if you'd be interested in a partnership with us. Our company's monthly revenue is $10 billion, and I believe being part of our team will elevate this company to a greater level," the manager stated.Rex was astounded by
The Underestimated Secret Heir 14: Disguised My Identity
They arrived home, and Rex narrated everything that happened at the mall to his grandfather."Grandpa, could you believe the whole customer base was ordered to leave, both the middle class and the high-class men, I mean men of different status, just because of me? Just for me to shop. I even at a point started thinking if it was really me or someone else bearing the same name .""That is to tell you who you are now; you're yet to see more honor when the globe recognizes you as my heir," he told him."I'm very grateful for all this, Father, and I promise I won't disappoint you when I join your firm," he said."That's okay, I trust you, although you did not grow up in my house, I already trust you for these few days you've been in our house—my house and your house," his grandfather uttered, and they both smiled."Father, the news is not yet over; guess who just got a partnership contract with Polite Shopping Mall!" Rex replied with heartfelt joy."That's impressive, son; that's to tell y
The Underestimated Secret Heir 15: Visitation
Rex headed to his room, ignoring the suspicious glare they were giving him.He discovered someone had penetrated his room; he could see scratches on the door, probably when the person was trying to unlock it, but the scratches were so visible that he concluded the person hit the door with an object after he attempted to unlock it but failed. He wondered what might have happened to his documents, credentials, and everything concerning his academics he kept in the room. He dipped his hand inside his pants and brought out his key. He unlocked it and stepped in, but his room was not ransacked; it was properly arranged rather, it was exactly the way it was before he left with Andrea for the hotel where he was arrested.He decided to check his documents first before concluding that no one had entered. He checked and found out everything was still in the other; that was the way he kept them."Then what might have caused the scratches on the door since no one entered here?" he wondered. "Well
The Underestimated Secret Heir 16: Suspicion
Rex woke up after feeling a pain in his shoulder. And he met a strange person he never imagined meeting. He had been tapping on his shoulder but applied force after Rex refused to wake up."What are you doing in Andrea's apartment when he is not at home young man? And who are you? I think I have seen you in this dormitory before," the man in front of me uttered.His looks scared Rex, and his gazing toward him was signaling danger. Rex was entangled in thought because this time around it was already mid-evening. By the time he entered the dormitory, there was a crowd of students and other individuals living there; everywhere was lively, but at this moment, there was no one in the dormitory."Why is everywhere so quiet? And where are all Andrea's dorm mates that I met when I came here? Hope I'm safe with this man here?" These thoughts ran through Rex's memory in not less than a minute, and he came back to answer the man in front of him."Good day, sir. My name is Rex, and I came to visit
The Underestimated Secret Heir 17: In A Haste
Rex wished he could explain to Andrea everything that happened, but he decided to keep it to himself for a moment because he knew it would be doubtful news to Andrea, his friend."Not related to all this you're saying, Andrea, you know I don't steal what's not mine, so why would you conclude I stole this card? Besides, you're the one that put yourself in a confused state because I told you you'd understand everything when it's set to understand, but you keep on trying to figure it all out today," Rex replied to Andrea, taking the credit card from him.Andrea couldn't do anything but stare at Rex in disbelief.Rex told him not to worry much about him and that things were now okay with him. So Andrea agreed after all his plans to know how Rex got the credit card went fruitless and what he meant by his tense: "Don't worry about me; I'm no longer the old version of Rex everyone knew."At first, he thought Rex was referring to the fact that he now dresses well and doesn't wear faded-colored
The Underestimated Secret Heir 18: All Girls Are The Same
The young, beautiful lady smiled at Rex's gaze toward her, but Rex ignored her and tried to focus on his food; he couldn't waste the energy left in him on unreasonable things like smiling back at her because he was famished. But the lady didn't give up; she stared at Rex for like every five minutes. He thought the lady recognized him; probably they had met somewhere years ago, but her gaze was more than the emotion of seeing an old friend; she was looking at him admirably. Indeed, Rex was worth admiring, even when he was broke, to talk of now he found himself in a place full of silver and gold. After he was done eating, he stood up to leave and accidentally made eye contact with the lady. At this moment, he was able to smile at her. At least he is now satisfied, no longer hungry, and he realizes she is beautiful—beautiful enough to catch any man's attention at first sight, with her adorning eyes like those of a pet cat. Indeed, she's beautiful—more than Cassandra, even. He ignored h

He unlocked his room door and entered. He arranged his cheap mattress and clung to sleep, but he wasn't drowsy.He unlocked his smartphone and started browsing social media, and he decided to browse through the macro app —the macro app that he had been avoiding all the years. He went to his app store to install it.He topped up his account after successfully installing it to avoid it exhausting early. He tried to log in but couldn't remember his account password. Because it had been a long time since he logged in to the Macro app, he created a new account and started browsing—watching reels and other exciting videos.He checked the time to know when he should go to sleep so he could wake up earlier tomorrow, but he immediately remembered that tomorrow was Sunday. However, he decided to watch as many videos as he wanted, for he had no vital place to go tomorrow.He watched different videos until he got tired and decided to turn off his phone to sleep.He memorized all the incidents that
The Underestimated Secret Heir 20: Emergency
Rex picked up the call."Hello, Jackson; what's the meaning of this? Why did you make me a subject of mockery? Why didn't you show up as you assured me earlier you were on your way, or you would have earlier told me you were not coming so I would know how to amend my schedule?" He paused and gazed at his wristwatch and continued: "This is already 1:20 p.m., since 8:30 a.m. I came here. Oh, now I get it. You used this opportunity to have fun and enjoy yourself—probably with a random girl you met on the street, right? "You lodged in a hotel just to have fun and left me here to be mocked; you chose frivolity over priority, right? Have you forgotten you can be fired right now—I mean right now by me? It seemed like you do not love this job anymore. Rex reverberated with an angry tone.Jackson tried to apologize and explain, but he didn't pay a listening ear to him—he didn't even give him a chance to talk, talk more of an explanation, and he ended the call.His rage became even worse than b

182: All That Glitters Are Not Gold
At Range Global JD Hotel Street, the road was a busy one as different cars were trooping in and out of the hotel. Just then, a black Mercedes-Benz pulled up in the street. Though the hotel street has been busy with tons of flashy and expensive cars, however, there was no passerby the car came across that wouldn't halt and take a second glance at it. After about two minutes, the car arrived at the magnificent hotel and halted at the entrance gate, waiting for the gate to open so it could enter. Without much waiting at the entrance gate, after about thirty seconds of waiting, the gate automatically opened, and the car drove in. The gate took so much time because its monitor was checking the car to know if it was really worth entering the hotel as the car owner was not a regular customer of the hotel. Hence, the gate didn't recognize the car immediately when it arrived to open. The car was directed to a parking slot by the hotel attendant. Meanwhile, at an empty table, a lady was sea

"Alright, dear. Trust me, I won't let her cross her boundaries," Rex stated."Good, boy. Always strive hard to be a good boy," she teased, and Rex laughed."Sure, mummy," Rex responded jokingly."Goodbye; I'm in the office right now, and a visitor might come in at any time.""No problem, dear, till we see again," Rex replied."Okay, but please remember our wedding is a few days from now; don't do me dirty, please," she pleaded, her voice so soft and cold that Rex could feel her emotions."Dear, worry no more. We're going to live together until nothing separates us. A mistake can't be repeated by a wise one," Rex affirmed to her, and the call ended.He let out a deep breath of relaxation.

"Alright, I'll text her right away with your number," Andrea responded."No problem," Rex responded, and the call ended."Wonders shall never end," Rex muttered as he was surprised by what he heard. He could not believe Cassandra was still in the country."This means she broke up with Kanye, probably after she couldn't resist his inability to stop cheating anymore." Rex was curious."Well, I shall hear the full story," he concluded, and he stood up to perform his morning activities before eating.As Rex squatted down and began his martial skills, he was interrupted by the ringing of his phone; however, he ignored the call because he didn't want a disturbance. However, the call came in again after the first ringing."Maybe it would be Mr. Montgomery," he let out, quitting his action to answer the call.Mr. Montgomery is a well-known businessman Rex had recently linked up with; hence, he didn't want to miss his call.However, upon picking up the call, he heard a female voice.

At 6:30 p.m., the party began at Rex's building.Everyone was so jubilant and dancing to the classical music rhythm that it was difficult to detect who was superior among them because they were dancing together. Rex did not show any atom of being their boss through the way he danced and associated with them.After about an hour had passed, everyone had been tired of dancing. They sat down, while Rex remained standing. It's time to let them know the purpose of the celebration party."I'm glad and excited to share this beautiful moment with you all," he remarked, clearing his throat before continuing. "I know you all must have been eager to know the reason for this urgent celebration party, right?" he asked, smiling."Definitely, sir," Tyler responded loudly."Well, this party was held to celebrate my little achievement, to celebrate how I conquered the problem I faced these past four weeks," he said, taking a deep breath.
