Alle Kapitel von When the True Heir Returns, the Impostor Runs Wild: Kapitel 1 – Kapitel 8

When Kenneth Lawson was finally brought home, he stood in the foyer, meek and hesitant. At the time, I had just secured a partnership with Matrix Corporation.On the way back, my assistant, Morgan Baker, told me the Lawsons' biological son had been found. My heart had pounded at first, then slowly steadied. Now that he was back, we'd take care of him. The Lawsons had more than enough money for that, after all. What I hadn't expected was the way Kenneth looked at me. The moment he saw me, the fear in his eyes turned to jealousy. "You want me to come back, don't you? Then he should give back what's mine! He's had my place long enough. I don't want anything else. I want the company."At those words, I let out a chuckle. "I've been running the company for ten years. Are you sure you can handle that?"Kenneth caught the disdain in my tone, and his face flushed with anger. "So what if I don't know how? I can learn. If I had grown up here, I wouldn't be any worse than you!" he snap

As soon as Morgan heard I had left the Lawsons, he followed without hesitation. Everyone else on my team said they would stand by me, too. "Mr. Lawson, wherever you go, we go."What Kenneth didn't know was that the Lawson family hadn't held its ground all these years because of some old-money legacy they loved to brag about—it was because of me.Even so, I was determined to attend his welcome home dinner. …The Lawsons had gone all out, hosting the dinner at Ravine Manor. All the big names were there, and so was I. The moment I arrived, I spotted a few wealthy heirs I used to hang around with. Smirks played on their lips as soon as they saw me. "Gregory? You've got some nerve coming here. You got kicked out, and you're still putting on airs. Aren't you embarrassed?"Another added, "Exactly! Just look at the scale of this event. It's obvious who the real son is. You spent all these years building things for someone else, but now, you've got nothing.""Why don't you beg me?

I let out a self-deprecating laugh, then continued, "I figured I was still worth something, but what you never realized is that I've had a rebellious streak since I was a kid. "I don't hand control over to anyone. And neither you nor Kenneth were ever my only option."That finally pushed Victoria over the edge. She hadn't expected me to shut her down so bluntly. I stood up to leave, but Victoria caught my arm from behind. "Can't you give me a chance?""A chance? What kind?" I retorted. "A chance to be with Kenneth, or to use me?"With that, I shook her off and walked away. What was she even playing at?…I wanted nothing to do with Victoria, but she kept showing up. Over the next few days, I kept receiving bouquets and little gifts. After work, she'd be waiting outside, and when I got in the next morning, she'd still be sitting across from me. Eventually, I took a deep breath and asked, "Victoria, what exactly are you trying to do?""Isn't it obvious? I'm trying to win

I shrugged and motioned for Kenneth to leave. He flew into a rage, and Robert dragged him out of my office. Even from a distance, I could still hear him cursing until a slap cut him off. I believed that eventually Kenneth would understand what I meant. …Three days later, Robert came back with a share transfer agreement, asking me to return. By then, the Lawson family's assets were all but exhausted, and the people lurking in the shadows were starting to show themselves. Donald Lawson, Robert's younger brother, stormed over the moment he saw me. "What are you doing here? Gregory, this company has nothing to do with you anymore!""Greg's here to acquire it. Our company's finished!" Robert snapped as he shoved Donald aside. Donald was stunned. "Acquire it? He's got nothing! He was kicked out of the family! How could he possibly buy us out?""I might not, but the Shaws do," I said with a sneer. Almost immediately, Kenneth clenched his fists and yelled, "That engagement wa
