CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again! Chapter 469
Rhea's Pov Alaric raised an eyebrow, a small, mischievous smirk playing on his lips despite the gravity of the situation. "And you, Nathan? I assume you had to look at these photos for... research purposes and not because you have a bunch of other thoughts in mind?" Nathan’s face turned a brilliant shade of crimson. "I had to! I spent three hours staring at those pictures, comparing them to the medical records I swiped from their respective doctor’s private server. I made such a sacrifice and what are the both of you talking about?!" I couldn't help it. A small laugh escaped me. "Three hours, Nathan? That’s a lot of time to spend looking at another man's body. I didn't know you were so... dedicated to a job like this? Very impressive." "I am fully straight, if that's what you're trying to imply!" Nathan snapped, though his blushing intensified. "I am not gay, I am not bi, I am just a very thorough investigator who now knows more about Jace’s anatomy than I ever cared to know."

Rhea's Pov "The moment word gets out that you've returned, Laziel, the gates won't just be opened, they will get torn down." Alaric said, stopping by the window to peer out at the sprawling estate. "People are predictable. Half of them will come trooping in here hoping to pledge an alliance they don’t mean, and the other half will be looking for a way to put a leash on you." He turned back to us. "But then there are the curious ones. And that is exactly where Nevaeh’s family must fall." I leaned forward, resting my elbows on my knees. "The engagement," I murmured. "It hasn't been officially dissolved, has it?" "Exactly," Alaric nodded. "On paper, Nevaeh is still the future matriarch of your house, Laziel, especially now that you're involved in this contest for who will become the new head. Since both of you went missing under such... 'mysterious circumstances, the marriage contract still remains. There is no way Neveah's family won't show up to inspect the boy who had come bac

Rhea's Pov Laziel stepped into the center of the room, his still growing body stood quite tall at this moment and it was undeniable that he had grown into a strong teen who was now capable of doing whatever he wanted. "Look at him," Laziel pointed back at Monte. "And then look at me. If you do not stand behind his words, if you do not agree that a liar should pick your next head, then he has no power to stop me. He has no right to bar me from the succession. I am a son of this house, returned from the grave to find my father’s honor being sold for scrap. I am claiming my right to challenge for the seat. The power lies in your hands to also select a ruler. You are all kingmakers here and no one has ever been left out. So, everyone, make your choice. Monte, or me.” The clan members weren't looking at Monte anymore; they were looking at Laziel. "He's right," a voice called out from the back. It was one of the younger men, a man whose face was mapped with scars. "We were told t

Rhea's Pov Then, something shifted the moment that tear dropped to the ground. Laziel's vulnerability instantly vanished and his eyes snapped open, and when he stood up, he didn't look like a grieving son anymore. He turned around, his gaze moving rapidly through the room and the sobbing relatives until it landed directly on Monte, who was cowering near the doorway. "You used him," Laziel said. His voice wasn't loud, but it carried the kind of weight that made the ground tremble slightly. "You kept him in this place like you are refrigerating a piece of meat. You denied him a grave and you denied the clan their mourning. You turned his legacy into a freak show." Monte tried to speak, his lips wobbling. "I... I did it for the stability of the family! If people knew…” "You did it for yourself," Laziel hissed. He straightened his spine, his height filling the room. "The Patriarch is dead," Laziel announced, his voice booming through the suite and into the hallway beyond. "And w

Rhea's Pov "Get out of my way!" Laziel finished, his eyes flashing slightly. The silence that followed Laziel’s angry yell was deadly quiet. Even the wind seemed to stop at this very moment. Monte looked like he’d been turned to stone, his mouth hanging open, his eyes darting between the guards who had lowered their weapons and the nephew he had tried so hard to erase. Jeremy, meanwhile, looked like he was trying to physically shrink into the body of the car behind him. Beside me, I felt a shift in the air. Alaric’s hand, which had been resting possessively on my waist, slid down to catch my palm. He interlaced our fingers, he didn't say a word, but he didn't have to. He took a long, deliberate step forward, positioning us directly behind Laziel’s left shoulder. It was a silent, lethal declaration of war. By standing there, Alaric wasn’t just a witness; he was the muscle. He was telling every person in this courtyard that if they touched Laziel, they were declaring war on the Va

Immediately Alaric said those words, it was as if the air had gone cold. Beside me, I heard Laziel’s breath stop completely. He went so still he looked like a statue carved from ice, his gaze fixed on Alaric’s profile, then slowly, shifting to Monte.Monte’s reaction was immediate and damning. He didn't scream and he didn’t even argue at first. His knees simply gave out for a fraction of a second before he caught himself against the side of a stone pillar. His face went a sickly pale and sweat had started to gather around his temples. "That’s... that’s a lie," Monte finally wheezed, but the words lacked any teeth. He looked around at the gathered clan members, his eyes wide and wild. "He’s an outsider! He’s trying to sow discord! Don't listen to him! Guards! Why aren't you moving? Arrest this man for slander!" But the guards didn't move. They were looking at Monte with a new kind of suspicion. The Giovanni clan was built on blood and loyalty, but it was also built on respect for
