Stolen Heir Sophie Lark Novels & Stories

After Gerhard's death, she had packed out of his villa and found another flat where she stayed with her daughter and her nanny. Sharon had thought that such a wealthy man that had his success stamped all over him, Oliver Stevenson could have any girl of his choice but the look she had seen in his eyes that evening had thrown her and had bothered her greatly. Sharon found him interesting to work with and thought of him as a man of contradictions. Sipping a gin and tonic, she glanced through the air-conditioned suite. It was elegant and comfortable, the walls were peach and white, the carpets incredibly thick, the long sofas flanked by white porcelain lamps.

Margaret sneered. "Get a grip, Felix. That Vivian girl was just some commoner trying to marry into money. Getting rid of her bastard child is nothing but a benefit to this family." "Bastard?" Felix shot up, his eyes bloodshot. "Mom, do you have any idea who you killed?" He stood, trembling with rage. "Vivian was carrying the one and only heir to the Blackwood family!" Margaret's wine glass froze mid-air.

A small, intricately carved locket. "No!" I screamed, reaching for her hands. Stephanie yanked hard. The chain snapped. She held the locket up in the air. "Look at this," she yelled to the crowd. "The omega trash is still clinging to her dead mother's garbage. She thought this cheap trinket made her special." "Give it back," I begged, trying to crawl toward her. Stephanie dropped the locket onto the cobblestones. She raised the heel of her heavy leather boot.

"Seraphina Langford's family held debt over the Rhodes estate. Significant debt. When Elias died and the company restructured, that debt became very difficult to collect. She's been waiting for an angle ever since." "And I'm the angle." "You're a Rhodes heir. If that becomes provable, the estate reopens. And if the estate reopens, every old claim against it resurfaces." He paused. "Including hers." Liora processed that. "So she wants me gone before I can file anything." "She wants you gone before you become something she can't manage." "And you?" She looked at him directly. "What do you want?" The corridor was quiet. The kitchen sounds on the other side of the wall moved like background nois

The betrayal cut deeper than Elara expected. Sophie’s eyes flicked past her to the glowing terminal. The screen still displayed her mother’s digitized sketches and the newly secured biometric ledger. There was clear hunger in that gaze. "Sophie?" My voice was barely a whisper, the word cracking in my throat. "What are you doing?" Sophie let out a short, quiet laugh, stepping over a piece of blackened wood. "I'm changing my life, Elara. That’s all this is." She tilted her head, her gaze shifting to the glowing text behind me, a dark, cynical edge settling into her voice. "You got a king and a crown of gold.

Prominently highlighted was Article VII, Clause Delta. The figure continued, "However the Council is not without… leniency. A path to redemption exists. You have one week, Alexander Sterling, to fix this breach. You will present yourself before the Council.. You will bring the true heir. The one who can uphold the covenant. The child of the Sterling bloodline. Ready to serve." The woman with the gavel brought it down with a thud. Alexander stared at the screen horrified. The true heir. They didn’t just want his company; they wanted Leo. His son, who was currently undergoing tests for a heart condition was now a pawn in a generations-old game.

"We shouldn't keep fighting each other anymore." Her eyes met his again. "Our real enemy is Liora." Lucien slowly nodded. "I was already investigating that before those bastards arrested me." Stephanie frowned. "You were?" Lucien set the plate aside. "The hidden heiress of Starlight Enterprise recently returned." "Starlight?" Stephanie interrupted, visibly shocked. "I've heard they're one of the biggest companies in the world." "They are." Lucien's expression grew serious. "But here's the strange part, the heiress looks exactly like Liora."

Just as I picked up my cardboard box to leave, a familiar voice sounded beside me. “Soph, what’s going on?” It was Hudson. The crowd immediately began speaking up for Lara. “Mr. Hudson! Sophie’s a thief. She tried to steal Ms. Lara’s bracelet right in front of her. That thing is worth tens of thousands of dollars, at least. Should we call the police?” “Exactly. A vain gold digger like Sophie doesn’t deserve to stay in our company.” Lara smiled sweetly and deliberately raised her hand, showing off the bracelet.

"Come on, don't play games in front of us, you three brothers; let's not buy any more time." "Tell you what, Madam Deputy Leader, if it's true that you have a son, please provide the DNA test results, place of birth date, and finally present the child here right now!" Calvin challenged, looking fed up with the conversation of the three brothers, which he considered to be an act.
