TAMING THE REJECTED SON OF A BILLIONAIRE Chapter 1
The Hart mansion stood tall and proud, a symbol of wealth and power. Inside, the air was heavy with tension as Adrian Hart sat on a velvet chair, facing his father, William Hart. The older man’s face was cold and stern, his sharp eyes fixed on his son."Adrian, you have embarrassed this family repeatedly, and this is the last time I am letting you do so," said Adrian's father, Mr. William.Adrian shifted uncomfortably, running a hand through his messy dark hair. He tried to look confident, but the weight of his father’s glare made him feel small."Dad, I didn't do all that. Someone might have framed me on purpose," said Adrian softly."Listen, Adrian," Mr. William began, "you are my son, and I know you very well. I know what you can and cannot do. Considering the recent series of events, there is no way you can convince me you are innocent unless with solid evidence.""Dad, do you want to mean that you don't trust me, your son?" asked Adrian."In fact, I don't have a disgraceful son l

After a few sips of the coffee, Adrian leaned against the cold brick wall, his phone trembling in his hand. His chest felt heavy as he stared at Anita’s name on the screen. For three years, she had been his anchor, the only person he believed truly understood him. In this moment of despair, she was his last hope, the only person he thought might stand by him at the moment.Taking a deep breath, Adrian pressed the call button. The phone rang once. Twice. Then, her familiar voice answered.“Adrian?” she said, her tone clipped, almost impatient.“Anita,” Adrian began, relief flooding through him at the sound of her voice. “Thank God you picked up. I don’t know what to do. I need you.”There was a pause on the other end, long enough to make Adrian uneasy.“I heard about what happened,” she finally said, her voice devoid of the warmth and the emotions he was used to.“It’s all a setup,” Adrian explained quickly, his words tumbling out. “I was framed by Benson.“Adrian,” Anita interrupted,

Adrian's heart sank as a whirlwind of memories flooded his mind, each one sharpening the edges of a painful realization. The moments he had dismissed as unfortunate coincidences or his own bad luck began to align with unsettling clarity. Every downfall, every scandal, and every carefully orchestrated situation where he was left defenseless now seemed connected by one glaring thread, that was Anita.He remembered the night he was caught in the hotel room with Mr. Jake’s wife, the scandal that had shattered his relationship with his father and tarnished his name beyond repair. Anita had insisted on leaving that evening for a “girls’ night out,” her sudden departure seeming harmless at the time. She had even consoled him afterward, swearing she believed his innocence. Now, in hindsight, her absence during every critical moment felt calculated, like pieces of a sinister puzzle falling into place.The dinner with his father, Mr. Williams, where an important associate stormed out after a mi

Contrary to her expectation, Adrian did not call Grace and she understood, his pride was wounded when she got off work, she walked through the park nearby, it wasn't far from where Adrian had spent the night and she was sure he would not have gone far since he had no means to cater for anything at the moment. Her voice snapped him out of his thoughts. Adrian was seated on the green grass at a corner in the park. “Would you care to walk me home?” Grace asked.Adrian blinked, caught off guard by her request. “Me?” he asked, pointing at himself as if she might have meant someone else.“Yes, you,” Grace said with a small smile. “Unless you’ve got somewhere more important to be.”He hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Sure,” he said, getting up. “I guess I could use the fresh air.”Grace grabbed her coat, and together, they stepped out into the crisp evening. The streetlights cast a soft glow over the quiet road, and the noise of the city seemed distant and muted.They walked side by s

Her grandmother’s hand squeezed hers gently, cutting her off. “You two look good together,” she murmured before closing her eyes briefly to rest.Adrian stood awkwardly at the foot of the bed, unsure of what to say. Grace turned to him, her face flushed. “She’s mistaken,” she said quickly.“It’s okay,” Adrian said, holding up a hand. “This isn’t the time to worry about misunderstandings.”The doctor entered the room, his expression grim. “Miss Grace, we’ve stabilized her for now, but her condition is critical. She’ll need an extended treatment plan, and unfortunately, the costs”He hesitated, clearly uncomfortable delivering the news.“How much?” Grace asked her voice firm despite the fear in her eyes.The doctor handed her a sheet of paper with the breakdown of the expenses. Grace’s eyes widened as she read it. The amount was astronomical far beyond what her overtime shifts at the café could cover.She sank into the chair beside her grandmother’s bed, her hands trembling. “I don’t kn

Adrian was silent for a while, the first person he thought of consulting was Grace, he had learned to rely on her more lately. It was as if he was also falling in love with her but he was trying to shove the feelings away."Okay", he said, thanked Mr Richard and went back home.That night, back at Grace’s apartment, Adrian sat down with her and shared the news."So, what’s the catch?" Grace asked, sensing his hesitation."I’ll be working for his son, doing all the work," Adrian explained. "But the credit will go to him. I won’t get recognition for it, and I’ll have to stay out of the spotlight. But the pay is good, and it’s a chance to rebuild."Grace was silent for a moment before speaking carefully. “That sounds hard, but it’s better than nothing, right?”Adrian nodded, his face etched with conflict. “Yeah. I don’t have many options. And this could be my chance to prove myself again.”Grace placed a hand on his. "I believe in you. You can do this. Even in the shadows, you’ll find yo

Benson froze, his confident demeanor faltering as his eyes locked onto Adrian, who sat with an air of calm authority. Adrian was no longer the man Benson had dismissed and humiliated. He was poised, self-assured, and commanding in his tailored suit. The years had transformed him into a figure Benson hardly recognized."Adrian," Benson finally managed, his voice barely above a whisper, a mix of disbelief and dread evident in his tone.Adrian leaned back in his chair, a faint, knowing smile playing on his lips. "Hello, Benson," he said smoothly, his voice steady and unyielding. "I see you’ve found your way here. Please, take a seat."Benson hesitated but eventually complied, his mind racing. How could this be? How had Adrian, the brother he and his family had cast aside, risen to such a position of power? And more importantly, why hadn’t anyone warned him?As Benson sat, Adrian’s piercing gaze never left him. "I imagine this isn’t what you expected," Adrian continued, his tone neutral y

Adrian sat in his sleek office overlooking the city skyline, his thoughts racing as he processed the latest piece of information his private investigator had uncovered. It was no surprise that Benson, his half-brother, was working against him. Adrian had expected as much. Benson’s ego would never allow him to acknowledge Adrian’s success, let alone admit to their father, Richard, that the estranged son he had cast aside was now a rising titan in the tech industry.What Adrian hadn’t anticipated was Richard’s sudden interest in Giga Tech. According to the report, his father had quietly launched an investigation into the company’s origins and leadership. Adrian leaned back in his chair, a grim smile tugging at his lips. So, the old man is curious, is he?He couldn’t afford to let his guard down. Richard’s influence in the industry was unparalleled, and if he discovered Adrian’s identity, it would trigger a storm unlike any other. Adrian’s past would become ammunition in Richard and Benso

The Williams estate had never looked so magnificent. Golden lanterns lined the garden pathways, casting a warm glow as the grand celebration unfolded. A cool evening breeze carried the scent of fresh roses and jasmine, blending with the melodies of a live orchestra playing in the background. Guests dressed in the finest attire mingled, their glasses clinking in joyous toasts.This was a night of celebration—not just for wealth and success, but for truth, redemption, and love.At the heart of the event, Mr. William stood beside Grace, his eyes gleaming with pride as he raised a glass to address the guests.“Tonight, we honor not just a lost daughter, but a strong woman who fought for her place in this family. Grace, my child, welcome home.”Applause erupted. Grace swallowed the lump in her throat, overwhelmed by the acceptance she had craved all her life. She glanced at Adrian, who gave her an encouraging nod, his hand firmly holding hers.She stepped forward, her voice steady but emot

As the night continued, laughter and celebration filled the air. Grace basked in the warmth of her newfound family, unaware of the danger lurking just outside the estate.Diana stood in the shadows, her eyes never leaving Grace. She held the USB drive tightly in her palm, her mind racing through her plan. She had spent weeks gathering fabricated evidence, working with her accomplice to create a scandal that would ruin Grace’s image before she could fully settle into her new life.Beside her, the mysterious man smirked. “Are you sure you want to do this now? She’s got a lot of support.”Diana’s lips curled into a sinister grin. “That’s exactly why we have to do it now. The higher she climbs, the harder she’ll fall.”Inside the grand ballroom, Grace felt a vibration against her palm. She glanced down at her phone and saw an unknown number flashing on the screen.Frowning, she excused herself from the crowd and stepped onto the balcony, pressing the phone to her ear.“Hello?”A deep voic

The night was eerily silent as Adrian and Grace arrived at the old estate. The grand mansion, once filled with warmth and laughter, now stood as a dark shadow of its past. The wind howled through the broken windows, sending an unsettling chill down Grace’s spine.Adrian squeezed her hand. “Stay close to me. If anything seems off, we leave.”Grace nodded, her heart pounding. She had spent so long uncovering the truth, and now, she was moments away from facing the woman who had tormented her family.They pushed open the heavy wooden doors and stepped inside. The grand hall was dimly lit by flickering chandeliers, their light barely piercing the darkness. At the far end, a lone figure stood—Margret.She turned slowly, a wicked smile playing on her lips. “You actually came. I knew you would.”Adrian took a step forward, his eyes locked on her. “Cut the games, Margret. You wanted us here. Now talk.”Margret let out a low chuckle, her eyes gleaming with malice. “You think you’ve won, don’t

As the night of celebration came to an end, Grace and Adrian returned home, unaware of the dark clouds gathering around them. Grace, exhausted from the whirlwind of emotions, settled into Adrian’s arms."Tonight was perfect," she murmured, running her fingers through his hair.Adrian smiled, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "It was, but we both know peace never lasts long with people like Benson and Margret lurking around."Grace sighed. "I just wish, for once, they’d let us live our lives."Adrian tightened his hold around her. "Whatever they’re planning, we’ll face it together."Meanwhile, Benson was far from done. He stormed into Margret’s suite, his jaw tight with frustration."What the hell were you thinking, siding with those men? Do you even realize the mess you’re dragging me into?"Margret remained calm, sipping her wine. "I know exactly what I’m doing, Benson. You’re the one who doesn’t understand the game."Benson’s eyes darkened. "You still think you can outsmart Adrian an

That evening, Grace arrived at the dimly lit café where Brenda had asked to meet her. The air was thick with the scent of freshly brewed coffee, but Grace had no appetite for it—her instincts screamed that something was off.Brenda was already seated in a corner booth, her hands wrapped around a cup of tea. When she saw Grace, her lips curled into a smile, but her eyes held something unreadable."You actually came," Brenda murmured, gesturing for Grace to sit.Grace slid into the seat, keeping her posture guarded. "You said you had something to tell me."Brenda sighed dramatically. "Oh, Grace, you have no idea what’s been happening behind your back. Your so-called family? They were never looking for you. They were looking for someone they could control. That’s why I—"She stopped abruptly, catching herself.Grace narrowed her eyes. "You what, Brenda?"Brenda leaned forward, her expression suddenly desperate. "I was supposed to be the one. I was supposed to be their daughter, Grace. Bu

As the glamorous gala continued, the hall was filled with laughter, music, and celebration. Grace had finally found her true place—with a family that cherished her, a husband who adored her, and a life free of the deception that had tried to tear her down.But not everyone was happy.From the far end of the hall, a pair of eyes burned with resentment, watching Grace bask in her newfound happiness.The woman who had pretended to be the lost Lennox daughter—Clara—had been exposed, humiliated, and dragged away by the police just days before. However, her hatred for Grace had only intensified behind bars.And she wasn't the only one.At the back of the estate, where the celebration lights barely reached, a black car was parked discreetly. Inside, a figure sat in the driver's seat, tapping his fingers against the steering wheel impatiently."She’s glowing like a damn queen," he muttered, watching Grace through a pair of binoculars. His face twisted with hatred. "That should have been Clara

The Lennox estate was no longer a place of peace—it had become a battlefield. Isabella wasted no time asserting herself as the "rightful" heir, basking in the attention and respect she believed she deserved. She walked through the grand halls like a queen, flashing a smug smile whenever she passed Grace.Eleanor, unable to accept this sudden revelation, grew withdrawn. She barely ate, and the sorrow in her eyes broke Alexander’s heart. Adrian, on the other hand, was restless. His gut told him something was wrong, and he wasn’t going to let Isabella’s smug face fool him.One evening, as Adrian sat in his office combing through the DNA reports again, something caught his eye."This doesn’t make sense," he murmured.The report bore the name of a reputable lab, but something about the formatting felt… off. He compared it to an old DNA report from the same lab and noticed slight inconsistencies in the font, structure, and signature placement.His heart pounded. Could Isabella have forged t

The room fell into an unbearable silence as Grace’s mind reeled with the truth. Her pulse was racing, her hands trembling. She looked at Eleanor, the woman claiming to be her mother, then at Alexander, who had a commanding presence that reminded her so much of Adrian’s father.“I don’t know what to say,” Grace admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.Eleanor took a cautious step forward, her eyes desperate and hopeful. “I don’t expect you to accept this immediately, my love. I just want a chance. A chance to prove to you that I never stopped loving you.”Grace’s jaw clenched. “If you loved me so much, why didn’t you fight for me? Why did you let my grandmother raise me all these years while I struggled, thinking I had no one but her?”Eleanor’s tears spilled over. “I tried, Grace. Believe me, I tried. I searched for you for years, but your grandmother ensured that every trace of you was erased. She made sure that you would never find out about me, and by the time I discovered where

As Adrian left the prison, Margret slammed her fists against the table, seething with rage. She had counted on Adrian’s fear—his desperation to protect his family—to make him surrender. But now, she was trapped.Derrick entered, shaking his head. “You should have kept your mouth shut, Margret.”She shot him a glare. “I’m not done yet. There’s always another way.”Derrick sighed. “Not this time. Adrian already countered your blackmail. The legal team got ahead of the story, and William’s company released a statement proving all the shady deals were your doing, not Adrian’s.”Margret’s blood ran cold. “That’s impossible.”Derrick smirked. “William knew you’d try something like this. He had a contingency plan. Every illegal deal was traced back to you. You’re the only one facing charges.”Margret’s body slumped in the chair. “No… No, this isn’t how it was supposed to end.”Derrick leaned in, his voice dripping with satisfaction. “Oh, but it is, Margret. You finally played your last card—
