The Underrated Duke's Heir Rise To Power Chapter 118
Brian chuckled at the boldness of the sales assistant to hold him that way. Even if she didn't really know who he was, she wasn't supposed to treat a customer this way. He gave her an icy glare, “Take your hand off.” His voice was low and menacing, sending shivers down the young lady's spine. Immediately, she released his hands and apologized, “I'm sorry, sir. However, you can't purchase this dress. Please pick another or leave our mall.” she said politely, even when she was indirectly insulting him. Dumbfounded that the young lady asked him to leave the mall, Brian became enraged. All he wanted was to purchase a dress, and this sales assistant had the guts to humiliate him this way? Ever since he started shopping, Brian had never encountered something like this. If the dress was off the market, why place it on display? The dress was still there because they were still looking for a potential buyer. Why then was the sales assistant proving stubborn?At the same time, another lady ap

Sonia smirked, a smile coming to settle on her face as she stared at Brian as she wondered what he was trying to do. Brian ignored her and waited for about five minutes. After exactly five minutes, a young lady clad in a classy gown walked down the stairs, her hair packed in a messy bun. Helena's steps were quick, but dignified; and a frown was etched on her soft features. Earlier, she was seated calmly in her office, happily going through some files in deafening silence; but Albert's call shattered the silence. Helena was shocked to see an unknown number calling her, and it took her some time to pick it up. At the same time, before she picked up the call, her assistant barged in, concern evident in his eyes. “Miss Helena, there's a big problem.” he said urgently, and Helena placed her hands on her lips, indicating for him to keep quiet. Albert's voice rang out, “Miss Helena, this is Albert from the Dukes Empire. I'm afraid a very important person, the CEO of the Dukes Empire,

Sonia planned to leave the mall immediately, as she had lied to the sales assistant and everyone at the mall. Close with Helene? She? A person with no unique status? Sonia simply threatened the young girls to make her do whatever she wanted at the mall, and this wasn't the first time she would be trying that kind of thing. Sonia paused, her eyes widening in terror as Brian's authoritative voice scared the shit out of her. However, she decided to feign ignorance and blame it all on the sales assistant. Moreover, the young man might have no unique status. He might only be acquainted with Helena, why then was she suddenly afraid of him? Sonia smirked as her gaze landed on Brian, “What do you mean?!” she snapped. “Just who do you think you are?! Because you called the owner of the mall outside, you think you can act high and mighty now?!”Brian smirked, and before Sonia could utter another word, Helena delivered a resounding slap across her face, causing her to stagger slightly. The sal

Matilda's face was as pale as a blank sheet, and Sonia wasn't in a good condition either. Matilda raised her head slightly, her lips trembling as she stuttered. ”Mr…Mr..Duke, please spare me.” her voice was shaky, indicating the fear in her heart. How could she, a lowly sales assistant insult and humiliate such a well respected person? Matilda shook her head, wondering why she made such a deadly mistake. Her gaze landed on Sonia, the cause of it all. With her fists clenched by her sides, she badly felt like slapping Sonia. Why would she implicate her in this kind of way?! First she lied about her identity, and now she made her insult the owner of the Dukes Empire. Matilda sighed, turning to Helena, her boss, “Ma'am, ma'am, please spare me. I didn't know he was Mr Duke.” she whispered softly, tears threatening to spill from her eyes. If she had known that Brian wasn't bragging when he made a phone call, she would have asked him to purchase the dress and leave; but now, she was already

Few weeks later,The Queens night event was finally here. A man with an impressive aura could be seen seated on a couch, clad in a dashing black and red suit. Brian's brown silky hair was combed to the back, revealing his stunning features; and his piercing blue eyes were even more evident. A smile was etched on his features as he saw Lyra walk down the stairs, her hair styled in a messy bun. Lyra’s cheeks heated up under Brian's intense gaze, a shy smile spreading on her plump lips. Lyra’s make up was natural, and simple; and she was even more beautiful. “You look stunning.” Brian breathed, enchanted by Lyra’s bewitching beauty. Brian was glad he was able to purchase the dress, as she looked exceptionally gorgeous in it. Her curves were accentuated, and her thighs were slightly exposed. Brian's eyes traveled across her body, and Lyra grinned, “You look as dashing as always.” she said softly, taking Brian's hands in hers as they walked out of the house.Few minutes later, Brian and

“Let go of me!” Martin snapped as he glared angrily at Tyla, who turned red in embarrassment. “Brian, you think you can act high and mighty now? Just because of your mere position?!” he seethed, his eyes blazing with fury. Everything about Brian angered him to death, and he badly felt like destroying him immediately. Brian sighed, obviously not in the mood for another banter. “Lyra, let's leave this place, shall we? I wouldn't want our perfect night to be interrupted by some unwanted pests.” he smirked as he pulled Lyra's hands and walked away. Lyra chuckled softly at her husband's words, “You sure know how to stir up the anger boiling in Martin and Tyla.” “I never intended to. Now that Martin has his position back, I can tell he's going to frustrate me to death. Don't you think he should be taught a lesson?” he asked as he tilted his head, “Martin Scott, Just because of a few shares and a small title, he thinks he can just talk to me anyhow. Well let's see about that.” he muttered

Brian decided to excuse himself and call Albert first. He was quite confused by the urgency of the message, and he wanted more clarification. With each passing minute, it seemed like he was running out of time, but what was he supposed to do? While Lyra was still giving her speech, he walked over to the restroom. As soon as he got there, his phone suddenly started ringing. “Frank?” he mumbled as he stared at his phone screen, surprised that he was calling by this hour. “Mr Duke, it's been a while.” Frank said softly as soon as Brian picked up. “How have you been? I heard you were able to clear your name. I'm glad.” he added, making Brian smile. “Frank, thanks for your help. I should have called but…”“No, it's okay.” Frank hurriedly said, “I understand you, Mr Duke. I understand you've been busy with work and everything. Actually, I called to give you some good news.” Brian's eyes softened as he heard Frank's words, his heart filled with warmth. Just like Albert, Frank was also qui

Harry returned back to the event after calming himself with some cigarettes. After all, his date, the lady he came with was still inside. As he walked past the restroom, he happened to hear Brian's voice as he was seriously talking to someone. His eyes narrowed, curious to hear what he was fussing about. Harry strode in gently, trying to remain unnoticed. Brian felt something snap inside him as he heard Albert's words. “Albert, what did you just say?” he asked, his voice trembling slightly. Didn't he say he saw the staff with his father? Why was he saying something completely different? Albert sighed, “Master, the first day your father got sick was the last day I saw the staff. Since I didn't know the importance, I didn't ask him where or why he kept it.” he said, slightly disappointed at himself. If he had known the staff was very important, he would have searched for it before Brian became the CEO. Perhaps Brian's father thought he was going to give Brian the staff personally,

The warmth of the sun caressed Brian's skin with half his body inside a pool. His hair, damp with water clung to his neck like a second skin while the sound of laughter filled the air. Right next to the pool was a garden filled with so many flowers, It looked unreal. The air was peaceful, calm and serene. He turned to his wife who basked in the sunlight, her skin glowing with youthfulness. In her arms were Ginny and George as she sat next to the garden. She stared at her kids with so much love, her heart filled with content. These past few months had been the best time of her life. Since Tyla was serving her time in prison, she got her company back. Now, Lyra was the chairwoman of Brooks Empire. That's right, she changed the name back to the initial name, and the crumbing company became better under her supervision. “Lyra, are the kids asleep? Don't you want to have fun in the pool?” Brian raised his voice, calling Lyra’s attention as he floated in the pool. Rather than settling do

Tyla tried to resist, but she was still dragged away harshly in the presence of all her employees. They all mocked her, glad that her end was finally here. Tyla cried and begged, but all her cries fell on deaf ears. A few days later after the chaos in Ashton Hills, Lawrence foyer, emerged as the winner of the presidential election, all thanks to Brian and his hard work as well. To thank Brian for everything, he decided to hold a banquet in Brian's name. Lyra strode into the hall with a wide smile on her lips. Her raven-dark hair cascaded down her waist in wavy curls, and the emerald gown she was putting on accentuated her hourglass figure. Her nanny walked right behind her with her kids, Ginny and Georgia, and Lyra couldn't ask for more. She turned to her husband, Brian who walked right beside her, his blue boraldo suit bringing out his striking features. His hair was styled like he should be on the cover of a magazine. His steps were slow, but powerful. Merely by walking, he comma

Dracula was able to escape Duncan's wrath, but Duncan couldn't care less. He was only concerned about the election and the success of it. The presidential election was taking place in Ashton Hills and several other cities across the country.

In the dead of the night, Brian's car sped down the highway. His bodyguards were positioned in the front of his car. As the car moved smoothly, suddenly, the driver noticed the image of two vehicles from the rear mirror, chasing their vehicle with all their might. Brian's driver, Alex, tightened his grip on the steering and said “Mr Duke, we're being followed.” “What?” Brian asked, slightly confused. After a hectic day at work, he wasn't really ready to encounter such a problem. He placed his hands on his forehead and sighed, “Are you sure about this, Alex?” Alex checked the rear mirror again and confirmed his suspicion, “I'm very sure sir. They're closing in on us.” he continued, stepping on the accelerator. Brian leaned back in his chair, “Alert the other bodyguards about the situation and drive in circles. Going home now is not an option.”Alex nodded, clicked on a button and alerted the bodyguards in front of them. Brian watched as Alex stepped on the accelerator, speeding on t

North Ashton Hills, Members of the dancing 9 were seated around the table, each of their faces filled with dread. Several years of planning, training, working, went down the drain because of Brian Duke. Yes, they had planned to threaten people but Brian was still blocking their path. Duncan slammed his fists on the desk, his skin flushed from anger. He shook his head, “Brian really thinks he can get away with this.” his voice rang out, dripping with venom, “Can you believe he ordered his people to dig out our past?”“What?!” One of the members spat, a look of terror plastered on his face, “He’s digging out our past? What if he gets evidence against us? What then are we going to do?” he added, his eyes fixed on Duncan. Another member turned to Tyla, “You're the reason for this, you b*tch! You've brought this upon us. It's because of your greed, that's why that bastard is after us.” she seethed. Tyla clenched her fists, “How dare you say that to me?! If not for my company, the group

A man opened up the car for Lawrence, and as soon as he alighted from the car, about three to five men accompanied him to the coffee shop. In locations like these, Lawrence looked like the king among mere mortals with his commanding presence. His men stood on guard outside while he pushed the door and walked into the coffee shop.A few days ago, a senator contacted him and told him about Duncan's threats. At first, Lawrence couldn't believe it. He knew Duncan was bringing people to his side, but he never thought Duncan would threaten people to side with Austin. Not until Mike told him about his wife's condition. Mike explained the whole situation to Lawrence, and Lawrence was determined to rescue his wife from the claws of Duncan. Mike couldn't do any other thing than trust the president's words. Working with Duncan was like working with the devil himself.

Ever since the incident that happened during the campaign, Duncan had never had a moment of rest. Apart from how fast Lawrence was progressing, Brian also became stronger with each passing day. If threatening people would bring stronger people to his side, Duncan was determined to find their weakness and use it against them. Seated in a young senator's office, Duncan crossed his legs as his lips curled into a grin, “Mike Harrison, senator of Blackwoods state.” he began, leaning closer to take in his features. Mike had raven dark hair and pale green eyes. Striking features that would charm any lady. He looked like a soft man who wouldn't be able to withstand any pressure. It was exactly the kind of person Duncan was in need of. Weak and vulnerable people. Since Brian and the president were forcing his people to stop working with him, he might as well form alliances with new people. Mike was his new target. He was only a senator, but he had influence like the governor of a whole stat

As the election date moved closer, Lawrence, the president and Brian, worked hand in hand to ensure that the position didn't fall into the wrong hands. It was a sunny afternoon; the trees were green, the air clean and the sky was bright. It was the perfect time to have a campaign, and rather than holding it in Halls, Lawrence held it in a public space, where people moved around freely. There were free drinks, free food and there was no discrimination. People of different status were welcomed, each of them dressed in their best outfits. Lawrence stood on the podium with a microphone in his hands. Rather than having a robotic speech that would bore people, Lawrence conveyed his heartfelt message towards the people. He promised them a brighter future, a better world where everyone would be treated equally. Even though he was the incumbent president, there were still some mistakes he made and so, he assured the people he would keep to his word and amend his mistakes. While Lawrence co

Due to the president's words, Killian did his personal research on the dancing 9, but he realized that It was quite hard to get anything on the group. However, that only fueled his desire to know more, especially why they wanted the presidential position. Few days into the search, Killian confirmed the president's words. The dancing 9 was indeed a group who was involved in illegal activities.Killian had no idea that he had been working with desperate people. People who would kill to get a certain position. If not for the president, he would have been in the dark for ages. Few minutes later, a waiter walked towards him with a tray. He bowed towards Killian, “Good day, sir. I would like to take your order.” Slowly, Killian raised his head to meet the waiter’s eye, “I'm expecting someone soon. I'll take my order once he arrives.” His voice was soft, polite, and unconsciously, the waiter's lips curled into a smile. Killian had a meeting with Austin at this particular restaurant. Howev
