Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 18: I think I like this girl
SCARLETT'S POV We arrived at the company's building and I let out a gasp on beholding the massive, exquisite skyscraper standing firmly amidst several others in the heart of the city. Of course I've seen it being featured in some commercial videos and magazines but I really didn't expect it to be this huge physically. "It's amazing sugar, can't believe I'm here looking at and about to step into the renowned headquarters of JP's Enterprise." Skylar gushed beside me and mother chuckled. Dad smiled at me and I smiled back, turning my gaze to stare out the window of the limo as the driver pulled the car into a halt in the vast parking area of the company. I could see a huge crowd of people outside the building and Mom made me understand that they all consist of several fans of my late mother, some rookie journalists_who wanted to grab a first hand information of the press conference but wouldn't be able to gain entrance in because of their inexperience or low status and several

SKYLAR'S POV We all watched in awe over Scarlett's intriguing, jaw dropping introduction. Hurray! My baby got 'em all trippin' I was mentally singing. Aunt Aimee was grinning from either pride or excitement beside me as she watched her foster daughter. Chairman Grey had a proud smile and look in his eyes as he looked sideways at her. I then decided to look at her new family. Harriet was red in the face from either shock, anger or from trying to suppress her discomfort. Her daughter, the beautiful girl I'd once admired on the very day I arrived this country, shifted uncomfortably in her seat also trying to control her discomfort but wasn't seeming successful. My eyes scanned around for the boy, Imogen's twin. The only sad part about everything that's happened so far, is the fact that my crush turned out to be the son of the woman who killed my friend's biological mother. How was I supposed to react to this one? Well, I can just stop crushing anyway. Who knows, he might no
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 20: My Crazy friend
IMOGEN'S POV"Mum I just can't accept this. Seriously, I don't think I'll ever get used to the strange girl posing as an elder sister and living in our home. Was it so hard for father to have given us a hint all these years? Why let us find out only recently?" I said to mother, not hiding the displeasure in my voice. I mean, we had to sit there and listen to her talk about herself as a 'legitimate' daughter. She had guts really! Even the way she smartly answered the questions thrown at her shows just how well she knows what she's doing. Mother sighed and touched my arm slightly, I was looking out the window as the driver drove us home. "Imogen, don't be too hard on your father. Take it as my fault," I turned to look at her in confusion. "I didn't care enough for him that's why he probably couldn't tell me." She said. "Mother!" I cut in, immediately. "That's not true. Everyone knows how greatly you care about father." I said and she gave me a small smile. "Just leave it all to me,
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 21: The Bryants
NARRATIVE Isabel Bryant stride in the grand deluxe living area of the Bryant's family mansion and found her husband, Minister Jordan Bryant pacing about, lost in thoughts. She knew what was troubling him. "Did you finally decide?" Jordan Bryant turned around on hearing her voice. "Oh Isabel, it's good you're here. Did Palo arrive safely?" He asked, moving closer to her. "Yes he did. What is the next step now?" Isabel asked again. "I'll have Dementriv arrange a meeting with Jamie Grey. Send Palo to me as soon as he's settled." He instructed. Isabel nodded briefly. "I've prepared dinner, you should eat." She said before walking away.HARRIET'S POV That girl's words couldn't leave my head since I heard it. How brazen of her to have made those remarks. She even indirectly insulted me during the press conference. 'I wouldn't know that Ms. Mills. I mean, my mother died right after I was birthed. But that's not a cause to worry as I think my stepmom would be 'more th
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 22: A little task
SCARLETT'S POV I took the stairs up to my room and on getting there, I paused on noticing the slightly opened door. Didn't I lock the door before leaving? I mused. Shrugging slightly, I stride in and made the way straight to my bed. It's been a really long day. Some moments later, I was smiling over the comments I saw on social media about my interview. Many people were already curious about me_how I happened to be alive, or what happened to my mother, why I didn't show up in the city all this while since I was never dead as the country had speculated. Why I didn't bother saying something concerning the rumors about my mother and her best friend, why I announced myself as a legitimate daughter...and so on. However, it wasn't the right time to let everything out. I'm just arriving. They should watch my moves. Picking up my purse, I retrieved mother's diary and smiled. "Mother, we've only just started. Today went exactly as I'd planned." I smiled and caressed the diary w
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 23: A forgotten promise
ASHTON'S POV "Yes Father, he said he'll get back to us in a few days." I reported and father nodded slightly with a small smile, while reclining more on his seat. "Very good. You've done well Ashton, I know I can always trust you." He said and I smiled. "Thank you for your generous words, Father. If you need anything else please let me know, I'll do it right away." "Not at all. For now, I need you to focus on securing Project XR contract with Song and Kwan Group before the next board meeting." He said and I nodded slightly in acknowledgement. "Yes Father." I wanted to ask him about Scarlett's new position in the company but on second thought, I decided against it. "Is there anything you want to ask me?" He said as though he could read my thoughts. "Not at all." I smiled and was about leaving the exquisite office when he interrupted me. "Ashton," "Yes Father," I turned around to face him again. "I trust you'll assist your sister, Heidi, around the compa
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 24: Heated Arguments
NARRATIVE Amelia Mills stared at the exquisite building before her. She had come all the way to JP's Enterprise with the excuse of seeing her friend, Susan. Susan works in the research department of the company as a junior staff. As a reporter, Amelia couldn't suppress her urge of digging into juicy details. Her reporter instinct wouldn't let her be as she felt there's something fishy about the Grey's family. Amelia wanted to find out first before any other reporter, what it was that the Grey's family was keeping secret from the general public. It was her duty as a reporter, to find out what it's all about_so she thought. "Amelia," She turned around and was surprised to see Logan walking up to her. Logan is a friend, whom she's aware, have feelings for her but she didn't see it as much, considering the duties she had laying ahead of her. "It's really you." Logan said smilingly, on reaching her side. "Hey," she smiled. "What are you doing here? You work here?" She asked
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 25: It's you?!
NARRATIVE Logan walked Amelia up all through to the floor where her friend's office was located, feeling great that he was finally having a decent conversation with her and there wasn't any interruption whatsover by killjoys like Tristan Millan, as he easily answered her questions and occasionally asking his which she answered willingly. Just as they made their way through the hallway, they came face to face with Ashton and Scarlett. "Logan, you're here. I didn't know you'll be coming over." Ashton said the moment he saw his friend. Logan who was just meeting Scarlett for the first time, couldn't hide his surprise as to how charmingly gorgeous she was. "Yeah, I didn't. I decided to stroll by your side since Rhys and Dexter went on a supposed cruising trip today. Won't you introduce me to your really pretty elder sister?" Logan said with a chuckle and Ashton cleared his throat. "Scarlett," he said turning to her and she smiled brightly and curiously at him. Her action

Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter Epilogue
In a duplex in a less packed area of the city, a brunette haired woman, sent a deadly glare across a scarred face man, kneeling before her. "I failed, boss. I apologize." He said and the woman raised her hand and slapped him hard across the cheek. Then she began pacing up and down the room. "Lie low for now. I would deal with this mess you have created, myself." She instructed. ___ Scarlett stared at the doctor in charge of Skylar's treatment with her face as pale as sheet. "Sorry. What did you just say?" She slowly asked, disbelief in her eyes. "We're sorry to let you know that we tried out best but..." The doctor paused, swallowing nervously as he avoided Scarlett's eyes. "...we couldn't save the child in her womb." He announced in one breath. Scarlett's knees suddenly became weak as she collapsed in to the seat. The doctor hurried on to add, "Also, she's still unconscious." Skylar was pregnant? Scarlett couldn't believe her ears. How? When? And now she
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 61: A powerful blow
NARRATIVE A dramatic event had happened in JP's Enterprise the following day and Harriet hadn't seen it coming.Perhaps, the tides hadn't risen in her favor afterall. "What do you mean, exposed?" She frowned at the subordinate who had just passed an information to her. She was currently in the study of her secret home in City center. Harriet hurriedly collected the iPad and just at a glance, her eyes read through the bold headline on the screen. *The general secretary of JP's Enterprise, Gordon Paul, arrested and charged for illegal dealings by the prosecution, in the early hours of today. He had been called in for questioning along side some minor shareholders of JP's Enterprise and a few directors as well, that had been involved in this.* Harriet's grip on the iPad tightened and her lips trembled slightly as rage surged through her entire body. "Jamie Grey!!!!!" She screamed, flinging the vase on her desk against the wall. He had just ruined her plans. Sh
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 60: A wake up call
Later that same night, Imogen had hurriedly informed her mother about the chairman's conversation on phone which she had overheard. Harriet wasn't surprised by this news. She had already been informed by the subordinate she had assigned to spy on the Bryants household. What she found out wasn't necessarily going to help her goals at the moment, as it seems Palo and Scarlett had something going already. "About KK, why do you think your father invited him over to dinner today?" Harriet asked her daughter and Imogen immediately knew the reason. "He seems to approve of Kyle and Scarlett being together," she replied thoughtfully. Harriet took a close look at her beautiful daughter and a thought occured to her. "Imogen, you like KK, don't you?" Imogen couldn't help but blush as she said. "It's quite obvious I do, mother. A lot." Her mother urgently continued. "Then you have to seduce him." Seeing how her daughter became stunned at her words, Harriet added. "We need
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 59: The chairman's secret
NARRATIVEWeeks passed by. There was remarkable progress in the growth of the company just under one month of Scarlett's leadership. Her relationship and sex life with Palo was going great too. He had even invited her to dinner with his family but she had politely declined. She wasn't sure yet if she should meet them, especially after her father's warning. She was still waiting on him to tell her everything when the time was right, like he had said he would. She had told Skylar about her relationship or situationship with Palo Bryant, and had also informed her foster mom of how Harriet had been keeping tabs on her secretly. Unfortunately, Scarlett and Lexi weren't able to find any trace of anything illegal to Harriet yet. She was seemingly having a clean record. But Scarlett knew it wasn't true. Harriet was cunning so she must have carried out her operations in strategic ways, making sure it led no traces back to her. Scarlett decided she would take things slowly, there m
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 58: Exposed
NARRATIVE Ashton and his friends were busy in the game room when Skylar brought in cakes for them to snack on. Skylar had made it herself with the assistance of a kitchen staff, of course, and wanted them to try it _ Ashton, mostly. "Enjoy," she whispered to him with a smile and his eyes didn't miss the deliberate wink she gave him and the fast manner she had bitten on her lips before she left. Skylar had made the cake most especially because of him, after learning that he loved eating cakes. And she sincerely hoped he liked it. At the sight of her, Ashton couldn't help lingering his gaze on her behind as she walked off, wishing he could grab those bouncy cheeks and also swat them as much as he needed, right now. If only he wasn't with people, he would have pulled her back in, shut the door after her and do so many dirty things to her that would leave her screaming his name only, around that seductive mouth of hers. But for the sake of their secret relationship,
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 57: His confession
NARRATIVE It was weekend once again. A Friday specifically. While Ashton and his twin had taken the day off work, Scarlett had gone to the company as she still had a lot to do. She however planned to spend the weekend with Skylar and her foster mom at Aimee Brooke's family farmhouse. Ashton's reason for slacking off was because he was hanging out with his friends at the manor but of course, he secretly wanted to spend more time with Skylar too. Imogen's reason was because she had a hangout with her friends today. Yori had even slept over in the Grey's family manor the previous night. Scarlett was in her office working through some files in her office. Although she was greatly distracted by the thoughts that clouded her reasoning. Thoughts around the recent happenings with Palo Bryant. Were things supposed to be going in the way they were now? Was she supposed to be involved in an office romance with her COO? She sighed as the thoughts kept coming. Scarlett t
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 56: Secret sexcapades
ASHTON'S POV "Come with me," I whispered against her lips, lowering her from the kitchen island and she instantly nodded, biting her lips sensually afterwards. Her constant need for me was just as equal to my constant need for her. And now, I don't think I can get by a day in my life without having her. Skylar followed me upstairs into my bedroom, stealthily of course, and I locked the door after us. Ever since the incident at the pool, we've been meeting every other night in secret.We just couldn't get enough of each other, and the more our secret sexual escapades occured, the more we both anticipated the next. "I want to watch you undress, and you need to do it slowly." I whispered and she nodded without disagreement and began doing as I have said. She wasn't even dressed with much to start with. She only had on a thin, transparent silky ash colored nightwear. And obviously, she had nothing under. The sight of her smooth, exposed laps made my mouth watered. Jus
Chairman Grey's Legitimate Daughter CHAPTER 55: His woman
SCARLETT'S POV The week after I became CEO of JP's Enterprise was a hectic one for me. I had never been that busy all my life but I knew it was worth it all. Of course, my Dad, my foster mom, Madame Freya, Lexi and others were there to assist me too and I was grateful for that. This was the life I was destined to live. And although I didn't start living such life on time, it didn't matter now as I could still survive in it. It would take a while but I was bound to adjust to the system soon. Some days ago, I had meetings with the COO, vice CEO and the team leaders of each department in the company. The agenda of these meetings had been to know how we could move the company even more further in the business world. And of course, I had listened to the suggestions of everyone and had taken note of the most excellent points. Presently, I was having a chat over coffee with Chairman Kwan of Song and Kwan group, the famous KK, in one of the outdoor terrace of JP's Enterprise.

NARRATIVE In an exquisite villa in Erdington, a group of people sat around a large dining table, discussing over dinner. This villa was Chairman Grey's private residence and he usually used it to host private meetings such as this. The group of six comprised of the chairman himself and five others; Scarlett Grey _ his daughter, Aimee Brooke _ her foster mom, Finley _ his PA, Madame Freya _ a trusted top shareholder and close friend to his late wife and lastly, Lexi _ Scarlett's personal assistant and undercover hacker whom he had assigned to her. "Now that Scarlett has been successfully appointed CEO of JP's Enterprise, I think we can now move on to the next step." Aimee Brooke said, and the others nodded in approval. She flew in earlier in the day, hours after Scarlett was voted in as CEO. And Scarlett had been more than grateful to see her mom again. Even though Aimee was just her foster mom now, Scarlett knew she would never consider her anything less than her moth
