Heir/Heirness

When Zane Veil, a forgotten foster kid turned street survivor, is pulled into the world’s most powerful secret empire, he inherits more than fortune. He inherits enemies. From poison in the boardroom to bombs in the night, every move is a gamble against billionaires, spies, and a centuries-old cabal. To claim the Veritas Protocol is to hold the keys to the world, if it doesn’t destroy him first.

Aaron Jeremy Smith must experience time travel where his soul moves into the body of a man who is an employee of the security section at his company. Like it or not, Aaron must play the role of Kelvin to find out who the traitor who tried to kill him is. And Aaron had to swallow a bitter pill when he learned that the wife he had loved and cherished so far had betrayed him, along with his own cousin. They deliberately took advantage of Aaron's love for Julia (his wife) to seize all of the Smith family's wealth and kill Aaron. The love that turned into revenge made Aaron vow to destroy them both, no matter what. And it was during that process that Aaron had to get involved with the beautiful female figure of the marksman, Vivian.

Kenric Osberd originally just wanted to be an ordinary young master, enjoying a comfortable and safe life without any desire to participate in the struggle for power because his secret work had made him satisfied. However, an unfortunate incident changed his mindset.   People who had been ignoring him suddenly attacked and tried to destroy him in various ways. He who initially lived by being an insignificant person now turns his life into a man who will be feared by everyone.   Revenge on the people who humiliated him? No, it wasn't.   Isn't death a luxury for the wicked? So rather, he wanted to teach them a lesson that would not be forgotten even in their sleep.

A mistake. A stain on the family name. *** Those were the labels Adrian Cross grew up with. His mother slipped into a coma the day he decided to leave it all behind. Though she had always placed his stepbrother above him, Adrian stayed for her. Enduring the elites’ humiliation and his father’s cruelty, Adrian gave up his secret identity to fulfil his filial duty. Then he was thrust into a bride selection deal, earning the elites’ uproar. Badly beaten, Adrian accidentally rescued a game company mogul who willed his company to him. Reeling from everything, Adrian raced to his mother’s side and found she was awake. His two years of effort reduced to scorn, Adrian’s resolve to finally cut ties with the Cross family was stronger than ever. His status-conscious family had no intention of letting that happen, though. They thought they had him right where they needed him, but Adrian levelled up the game. The Phantom is back. The Spider Network reactivated. As the elites scramble to know and recruit the same man they sneer at, everything they thought they controlled begin to unravel, and beside him, a phoenix stands to burn their world to ashes.

Dante Hale answers a phone call that changes everything. His family admits they were wrong about the murder charge, and suddenly a billion dollars sits in his account along with contracts that could transform his wife's life. But the Hartwell family still treats him like dirt, mocking his cheap ring and laughing when he promises to book Sky Garden for his wedding. Not know he was now the key to achieving all that they could dare to imagine.

He gave her everything. For three years, Rowan stood by her side when the world abandoned her. He sacrificed his time, his wealth, and nearly destroyed his own empire just to heal her broken legs. The day she finally stood again she threw him away. Mocked. Humiliated. Replaced by the man who once abandoned her. To them, he was nothing more than a useless husband. But what they didn’t know… was that the “useless man” they discarded… owns the very empire they were begging to climb. As hidden identities unravel and buried truths come to light, regret comes too late. Because once he walks away there’s no turning back. And this time, he’s not saving anyone.

He woke up on a highway with nothing, no name, no past, no idea he owned the largest pharmaceutical company in the city. Three years mopping hospital floors, living quietly, asking nothing. Then a woman in a charcoal suit walks in at 2 a.m. and says his name like she’s been carrying it for years. Adrian Cole is back. The people who buried him should have finished the job.
