Adrian walked into Ravencrest Mansion with one purpose. He wasn't there to repair the broken relationship between himself and Richard.

He was there because Alexander had finally made his move. A board meeting had been scheduled for that evening, and the main item on the agenda was simple. Remove Adrian Ravencrest as chairman of Ravencrest Empire.

Richard was sitting in the main living room when Adrian entered. The older man looked up immediately.

Richard could see the determination in his son's

  • THE HEIRESS THEY NEVER WANTED   ONE PART

    “What are you doing here?”Adrian's voice cut through the quiet cemetery.Richard turned to look at him.“I came to visit my beloved.”Adrian's eyes narrowed.“This is the first time I've seen you here.”“I usually come a week after you did.”“Why?”“Because I know you don't want to see me.”“And you think standing beside her grave will change that?”“No.”Richard's answer was immediate.“I don't expect you to forgive me.”Adrian studied him suspiciously.“Then tell me the real reason you're here.”Richard looked toward Elena's tombstone.“Because things are finally looking good.”Adrian gave a humorless laugh.“Good?”“Yes.”“You've lost control of the empire you spent decades building. Your so-called heir has been exposed as someone else's son. I'm now chairman, and I'm preparing to tear the empire apart.”He stepped closer.“And you call that good?”Richard met his gaze.“I call the truth coming out good.”Adrian's expression hardened.“What truth?”“That Alexander was never my son

  • THE HEIRESS THEY NEVER WANTED   ENJOY IT EITHER

    It had been several days since Owen moved out of their matrimonial home with Liam. Daphne had stopped counting how many times she had called him.At first, she had called from her own number.Blocked.Then she borrowed a phone.No answer.She tried another number.Nothing.She even sent messages through people who knew him, hoping he would at least agree to speak to her. He refused. Owen had completely shut her out and that hurt more than Daphne wanted to admit.She sat alone in the bedroom they had once shared, staring at the empty side of the bed. Liam's room was empty too.His clothes were gone. Even the little drawings he had once left scattered around the house had been packed away.The house was still enormous but it no longer felt like home.It felt like a reminder of everything she had lost.Her marriage.Her child.Her position in Laurent Empire.Her reputation.Her parents were now being investigated.And Nadia had taken the chairmanship she had believed would one day belong

  • THE HEIRESS THEY NEVER WANTED   DON'T LIE TO ME

    Alexander stormed into the backyard where Linda was relaxing with a group of her wealthy friends. They were laughing and gossiping, completely unaware of the storm that had followed him home from the Ravencrest boardroom.Alexander didn't care.“Who is my father?”The laughter stopped.Linda's smile vanished.“Alex…” She glanced nervously at her friends. “What do you mean?”“Who is my father?” Alexander roared.Her friends exchanged confused looks.Linda quickly forced a smile.“Hmmm. Ladies, let's meet another time.”The women didn't need to be told twice. They gathered their handbags and hurried away, throwing curious glances at Alexander as they left.The moment they were alone, Linda turned on him.“Alex, what kind of stupid question is that? Your father is your father.”She paused.“Wait. Are you chairman already?”Alexander's eyes burned with fury.“Dad told me he is not my biological father.”Linda froze.“He came to the meeting with evidence.”Her face paled.“So answer me, Mo

    “Congratulations to Mommy and Daddy for becoming chairpersons of big companies!” Aveline announced, clapping enthusiastically as she sat between Nadia and Adrian at the dinner table in Adrian’s penthouse.Nadia smiled at her daughter before raising an eyebrow.“How did you know about that?”“Auntie Faye and Jade were happily discussing it earlier,” Aveline replied innocently.Adrian chuckled.“Well, thank you, baby girl.”“You’re welcome, Daddy.”“Thank you too, jellybean,” Nadia said, reaching over to gently pinch Aveline’s cheek.Aveline grinned.Then, as if a completely unrelated thought had just occurred to her, she picked up her spoon and continued eating.“So, Mommy…”Nadia hummed. “Yes?”“When are we planning your wedding to daddy?”Nadia nearly choked on her food while Adrian froze with his glass halfway to his lips.“And when should I be expecting my little sibling?” Aveline continued. “I’m almost five already.”Nadia coughed violently into her napkin while Adrian slowly lowe

    While Ravencrest Empire was dealing with its own battle for the chairmanship, another power struggle was unfolding at Laurent Empire. The final vote between Daphne and Nadia had been painfully close.Nadia had never cared about becoming chairwoman. She had spent most of her life trying to stay away from the Laurent family's chaos but everything had changed.She had discovered that Daphne and her parents had been behind years of pain and trouble in her life. They had manipulated situations, destroyed relationships, and repeatedly tried to bring her down. Nadia was done running. If becoming chairwoman was what it took to finally destroy everything they had built, then she would take the position. The voting had finally come to an end.The secretary slowly counted the ballots while the board members waited in tense silence.When the final numbers were recorded, he looked up.“It’s a tie.”A murmur swept through the room.Daphne’s lips curved into a confident smile.“A tie?”The secreta
