The Understimated Heir I am your child!
Nibbling on her nails, Nina watched her laptop screen as the website loaded, making her heartbeat, wanting to stay positive, but after the constant rejections, she couldn't. “You need to chill, Nina,” Her best friend, Kim, said, taking another bite of her sandwich. “It’s only been like a few companies who have replied. It's not like all the-” “Nineteen companies, Kim. It's been only a couple of days, and I have been receiving rejection letters one after the other, Every other day.” Nina mumbled, grabbing another napkin and blowing her nose into it. “It’s like I am cursed.” “Come on, Nina. Be positive. Who knows, this one might-” “Dear Miss Simone, we regret to inform you that the position that you applyed...” The trembling in Nina's voice made Kim's sandwich freeze to her lips, and she whispered as she rested the sandwich on the bed, “Oh Nina, come here.” Crawling towards her friend, Nina buried her face in the crook of Kim's neck as she sobbed. “Shhh, Nina. You're okay. This is
The Understimated Heir Not her type
Staring at the garment bag hanging on the rack, Ethan studied it for a while, and then he unzipped it, taking out the only suit that he had to his name and dusting it off.Then he took the pants and blazer from the garment bag, deciding to go with his black dress shirt, and wore them. Once he was done, he wore his shoes that were polished and then stepped in front of the mirror to wear his tie.Suddenly, a knock on his room door broke him out of his thoughts, but before he could react, the door opened, and in came his father who was wearing a very expensive blue suit.Halting in his steps, Mr. Rider immediately frowned, his eyes blazing with rage as he stared at Ethan's suit and asked, “What is that rag?!”“What rag?” Ethan frowned back at him, wearing his tie.“The shit on you.”“You mean, my suit?”Speechless in anger, Mr. Rider looked at him like he was insane and said, “Yes, your goddamn suit! Haven’t you worn that rag on many occasions?!”“Yes, and it is still in good shape for
The Understimated Heir Set me free
Taking the glass of water off the tray, Nina smiled at Esther and said, “Thank you.”A soft breath escaped her lips as she slowly sipped the drink, enjoying how warm and comforting it was.With an uneasy expression, Kim leaned onto the railing next to Nina, looking at the view and gazing up at the night sky above, waiting patiently.A couple of minutes later, Nina rested her head gently on Kim's shoulder and whispered, “I got a headache.”Her vision was slowly getting blurry and she couldn't focus on anything. Her body was tense as she started to feel a bit warm inside, the cold air made her shudder slightly.Finally, Kim looked down at her with furrowed eyebrows and asked, “What’s wrong with you, Nina?”Even though she tried to answer no sound came out and instead, she closed her eyes tight and sighed softly, her teeth gritting together.“Do you want me to find a guest room for you to rest in? You look awful.” Kim whispered.Nina wanted to say that she was feeling weird in her body a
The Understimated Heir Freedom
The group waiting outside for Ethan to open the door only seemed to get bigger the more aggressively Mr. Rider beat on the door. “You bastard, open this damn door right now, Ethan!” Mr. Rider's voice blasted through the door.Ignoring his father's screams and the whisperings from the guests that only seemed to be getting louder, Ethan give Nina a small smile and said, “If you want to use the rumors that we are having sex to break up your engagement, then I don't need to take advantage of your body for that to happen...”As Nina was about to argue with his logic, Ethan place his index finger on her lips and said, “Listen,”The whispers had long since become loud, arrogant statements, and Nina heard a lady echo out her opinion, “Does this child have any sense? She cheated on Charles with a servant boy… What kind of stupid woman does that?”“I can’t believe he is having an affair with her too, knowing that the Walkers are her soon-to-be in-laws.” Another lady said loudly.As the reali
The Understimated Heir Another chance
The morning light met Ethan standing at the window, watching the sunrise in the east, his mind running over the conversation he eavesdropped on last night between the two men. Then when he heard the mattress move, he stretched his tired muscles and yawned before turning to the bed to see Nina wearing his black shirt with his pair of sweatpants that were both huge on her. “Good morning,” She whispered, looking over at the couch he slept on and feeling a sense of guilt for taking his bed. “Morning,” Ethan said, noticing the discomfort on her face, and thinking that now that the drugs were out of her system, she was regretting last night's event. “Are you regretting what you did for me last night?” Nina asked, rubbing her arm anxiously as she avoided his gaze. “No,” Ethan instantly responded. There was an awkward brief silence between them, with her still staring intently at his body until she asked, “Are you sure?” “Very sure.” Ethan replied. “Oh… Okay.” “How about you?” “No, I
The Understimated Heir A father rejection
As rage roamed in him, Mr. Simone slapped his hand on the table, his face red with rage, and shouted atEthan and his daughter, “He’s a scumbag!! That man is worthless!! A total waste of his family name-”“Wow! It’s a good thing that you are not the one marrying him then.” Nina snorted, trying to keep calm and act cool even though her heart raced rapidly at his aggressiveness. “Because I am. And Ethan and I don’t need your blessings!”The way Mr. Simone's eyes bulged out of his head with anger and his jaw dropped in horror caused her satisfaction to rise higher than ever, making her happy at being able to put him in his place, but still, it didn’t erase the fear that was beginning to build in her when she remembered that Ethan was getting dragged into her family mess.Like he could tell what she feared, Mr. Simone looked over at Ethan, his eyes narrowed dangerously, and then yelled at him, “You want to marry my daughter?!”“Yes, Mr. Simone,” Ethan said, trying to be respectful, even th
The Understimated Heir Don't die here
Silence settled at the table as Nina bit her lip, scared of what Ethan would think of her if her advice went south. But when she saw a smile slowly creep on his lips as he gazed deeply into her eyes, her worries disappeared.“Thanks,” Ethan said, his smile becoming larger as he stared at her.“No problem,” Nina replied, ignoring the heat rushing up her cheeks as she handed his phone back to him.“Excuse me, what would you two be ordering?” A cheerful voice interrupted their peaceful moment.After exchanging a brief look, the two turned their heads toward the waitress, who gave them a wide grin, revealing her dimples and big brown eyes which sparkled with happiness as she waited expectantly.“Can I have two slices of strawberry shortcake with whipped cream and cinnamon? One cup of dark coffee? And a small bottle of water?” Ethan stated as he took out his wallet, and the girl wrote down his order, giving him a bright smile as she went on.“And I will have apple pie, please. And one orde
The Understimated Heir This could either be very good
The shop was tense in silence as everyone held their breaths as they waited for something to happen between Ethan and Drak, as though their lives depended on it. “Your teacher's teaching must be crappy for you to cheat again with a weapon, or maybe you are just a dumbass who can't do any better than this!” Ethan taunted with a growl, his lips pulled in a crooked smile as he lifted his chin, meeting Drak’s glare. Standing his ground, Ethan studied Drak's body language, his eyes, and ears alert for the slightest movement, calculating his next move. Just like the impatient fool he knew Drak to be, it didn't take long for him to tighten his grip on the knife, rushing for Ethan like a madman, screaming. Tightening his own hands into a ball, Ethan's muscles tense, preparing for the coming onslaught of attacks, waiting for Drak, and once he saw him coming, he quickly raised his right leg and kicked Drak in the stomach, catching him off guard and sending him flying across the room.
