The Heiress No One Recognized Chapter 33
The returned Heir The private lounge was an elegant, secluded room within the restaurant, with plush seating, dim lighting, and a beautifully set dining table. It offered complete privacy away from the main dining area.“So tell me, son, who is this mysterious wife of yours?” Zayn slid into one of the chairs, opting to get right into it. “Actually, let’s start with this. How have you been, son?” Alastair took his seat beside Laird, across from Zayn while Hero took the one next to Zayn. He picked up one of the candy bars set out on the table. A waiter approached them. “Good afternoon gentlemen. May I please take your drink orders?” “I'll have the Hazelnut Mocha. Thank you.” “I second that.”“Passion Fruit Swizzle Mocktail for me please.” “And a Café affogato. And make it with vanilla bean gelato.” “Alright, gentlemen.”After the waiter left, Alastair looked out the window at the incoming clouds and looked back at his father. “That’s my car.” “I’m aware.”“I’m well, Father. Thou

The returned Heir Alastair got into the car.“That oblivious little man,” Laird said, sliding in after him. “I liked him better when he was still hoping we’d buy the glass pool.”Hero climbed in last, eyeing the mini fridge built into the door panel. “Please tell me lunch is happening soon, because I need a good meal after all that.”“Get in,” Alastair said, ignoring him fondly. “I’ll fill you all in properly on the way.”They’d barely cleared the gates when Hero, still mid-complaint about his stomach, glanced out the window and went quiet.“Wait, isn’t that—”“Yes,” Alastair said, before Hero could finish his query.Laird leaned across to get a better look. “And that’s your father driving it.”“I’m aware.”What Alastair found stranger than the car itself was who was driving it. Zayn never drove himself anywhere, hadn’t in years, and yet there he unmistakably was, alone behind the wheel, idling just far enough from Amsterdam & Co.’s gates to look casual about it.Elliot caught his ey

The returned Heir “Come on now. We’d best get going.”They left the car together and headed toward the estate agent’s office, where a sharply dressed man was already waiting by the entrance, practically vibrating at the sight of the SUV and the three men climbing out of it. He crossed the drive before anyone had said a word, hand already extended, beaming like Christmas had come early.“Gentlemen! Roger Amsterdam, at your service.” His eyes swept over them, cataloguing watches, shoes, the cut of Laird’s shirt and the expensive car with what seemed to be a chauffeur. “May I interest you in any of these? Some of our finest properties available with indoor glass pools, two kitchens, fifteen bedrooms —” Hero stepped out of the car mid-sentence, and Roger’s pitch died in his throat. The sheer size of the man was intimidating enough, but the serious expression made him look even more formidable.Still, Roger recovered quickly and pressed on anyway, though his eyes kept flicking warily ba

The returned Heir Alastair’s office looked exactly the way it had the morning he’d first walked back into it. He was dressed casually in a perfectly fitted beige linen shirt, three buttons undone and the sleeves pushed to his forearms, paired with dark Brunello Cucinelli trousers. Three contract files were open in front of him and a fourth balanced on his knee, the Aarhil Group seal stamped across each one. The first contained projections for one of Aarhil Group’s newest acquisitions. The second concerned an international supply agreement. The third had been placed directly in front of him by one of his executives with the word urgent written across the cover. The fourth concerned a new luxury hotel acquisition in Monaco. His phone buzzed against the desk, he ignored it and opened the third file, the name Roger Amsterdam caught his eye before his phone vibrated three more times. This time, he reached for it, the screen showed messages from Elliot. Elliot: Sir, a reminder regardi

The misplaced Heiress“Why?”Sylas looked at Lysandra for a moment before leaning back in his chair. “Why what?”“You’re the one who asked if I’d heard from Altair. Why do you want to know?”“Because you haven’t mentioned him all day.”“So?”“So,” Sylas said, gesturing toward the mountain of papers scattered across the table, “you’ve had plenty to say about everything else. Suppliers, investors, staffing, expansion, contracts. You even gave me a ten-minute lecture about logistics.”“Because you asked.”“I know. I’m just saying, you’ve been unusually talkative today.”Amara smiled from across the table. “Except about your husband.”Lysandra stared at both of them. “Oh, my God! You’re both doing that thing again where you decide there’s some huge meaning behind something completely normal.”Sylas laughed but there was no humour in it. “Lysa, you married the man. I don’t think asking whether you’ve spoken to him qualifies as that much big of a deal.”Lysandra sighed and pushed a loose st

The misplaced Heiress The next morning, Sylas didn’t bother knocking at all. “Rise and shine, Madam CEO-in-training.” He dropped a thick binder onto her desk. “Today we build you a map.”“A map.”“Of everything you now technically own a piece of.” He flipped it open to a page dense with boxes and connecting lines. “Behold. The Vane Group family tree, minus the actual family drama.”Amara arrived a moment later, coffee in hand, and settled into the chair across from her without preamble. “Yesterday we showed you the shape. Today we show you what’s holding it up.”“I thought the board was holding it up.”“The board runs it,” Sylas said. “The trust owns it.”Lysandra frowned. “What trust?”Amara set her cup down. “Your grandfather didn’t leave Vane Group to any one person. When the company went public, decades ago, he put the controlling shares into a family trust instead. Sixty-one percent of the company is Class A voting stock. The remaining thirty-nine percent is Class B and was publ
