The Rise Of A Secret Heir

The door opened suddenly and Derek walked inside the hall. He hesitated as murmurs filled the air around him. “Isn’t that the live-in son-in-law?” A lady murmured as she looked at Derek. “Yes,” One of them admitted with sarcasm. “It’s really him!” Someone laughed. “He’s as miserable as ever!” Derek released a sigh and eventually walked to an empty seat. A round of applause sounded suddenly as Ethan stood up. Clad in a black tuxedo suit, he was not only tall but handsome. Everyone's attention turned toward him and they soon forgot about Derek. Ethan had a wide smile on his face. "I actually didn't think I was going to make it here today. I had an appointment in Dubai," he announced and everyone nodded briefly. Derek turned away for a moment, with a funny expression on his face. He knew that Ethan was lying. He wasn't in Dubai, in fact, he was in a club till it was midnight. "Hey!" Ethan called softly and gestured at Derek. Derek sighed, a bit frustrated but he rushed forward no

Evelyn scoffed. “Let’s see then,” she muttered and walked away. “What insolent!” Ann was not only shocked but also disappointed. Derek just said the impossibility. How were they supposed to find ten million worth of order within a week. They all knew how poor Derek was. “How could you be incorrigible?” she huffed and hurried after Evelyn with the hope of apologizing to her. Getting Amelia to marry Zayn would help her a lot anyways. She might not have to worry about money for the rest of her lives. Amelia felt a stab of annoyance at what Derek had said. “Why will you say that? Why will you complicate matters?” Her voice was cold and harsh. She felt angrier because Derek had promised to do something that was very impossible. Derek had always been so annoying but she just had the last straw of it. “Amelia, calm down and listen to me,” Derek said softly and tried to hold her hands but Amelia jerked his hands away. “I don’t want you to be bother about it. I will solve the problem,” he as

Amelia still couldn’t comprehend the reason why the owner of the company would give her a flower. She would have thought that the owner was Zayn, if not for the fact that he didn’t boast about it. And she doubted the fact that Zayn would ever help her if she didn't accept to be his woman. Amelia smelt the flower and a wide smile spread across her face. It doesn’t matter who the owner of Aircastle was, what matters was that she would be able to save her company and she wouldn’t have to marry the disgusting Zayn. .Actually, Derek didn’t leave when Amelia went inside. He instead went into hiding and was watching out for when Amelia would come out. After she left, Derek walked back to the receptionist again. The receptionist recognized him the moment he was moving closer. She felt a stab of annoyance at this. “It looks like you aren’t ready to learn. I’m definitely calling security on you!” she threatened and grabbed the telephone. Derek ignored her and instead made a call to Fred. He

Ann kept shut immediately and they all looked at Amelia at the same time. Anne took Amelia’s hand quickly. “Are you alright, dear? Do you still wish to get some rest? I mean it’s the normal thing to do. You look tired anyways. You shouldn’t let a fool disturb your beauty rest,” she rumbled on. “Mom!” Amelia called quickly, a bit frustrated. “You should stop too, Mom,” she looked at Ann. “You really need to. Besides, I thought we were done with this discussion. I told you that I’m not going to marry Zayn and no one else.” Derek looked at Ann. “See? She doesn’t want to.” It was actually pleasing to him that Amelia was fighting for him at the last minute. Ann sent him a glare before she looked at Amelia and smiled nervously. “I understand, dear but I’m not even talking about Zayn now. I’m talking about the president of Aircastle.” Derek felt alarmed. He looked over at Ann quickly. “What about him?” Ann gave him a cold look. “What did I say about interrupting me?” she yelled. “This i

Derek decided against it very quickly. There was no point doing it anyways. It would only cause more problems. Asides, Ann's mind was already made up. One of the security guards poked at Derek from behind. "Move it!" He yelled. Derek relaxed and complied. "Get the idiot out of my house!" Ann shouted with disgust. Derek didn't say anything as he was led out of the house. "It's a goodbye to the live-in son-in-law," Ethan laughed in mockery as he was being pulled out of the house. The security guards led him out of the house and shut the gate against him. Derek released a sigh. He had nowhere to go because he hadn't settled down and his family house was out of Orange-park. He picked up his phone and placed a call to Fred. He picked it up immediately as if he was already expecting Derek to call. "Hello, young master. Are you coming home today?" "Uh_," Derek hesitated. "No, but I need to find a house as soon as possible." "Oh," Fred seemed to relax. "Where would you like to go?
