All Chapters of Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife : Chapter 391 - Chapter 400

Harold spoke with so much hatred that the dining room shook with his voice. Regina and Caleb looked helpless and wary as well.“Everyone is talking about the new President. Have they gotten Heidi's consent yet?” Regina murmured. “We know Heidi is capable, but…” Caleb looked down, leaving his words hanging.“You see, Dad!” Harold hollered, his tone filled with ridicule. “Even Heidi's parents don't think she is up to the task! For once, they speak something sensible!”“That's not what we mean,” Regina defended. “It is written all over your faces!” Harold laughed. Grandpa Jeffery's cough interrupted the noise. He exhaled deeply. “Harold…”“I'm listening, Dad.” Harold looked at him. “You also think that idea is crazy, right?”Grandpa Jeffery nodded. “It is crazy that your family is the only one not backing up Heidi. When will you finally start regarding all these children as your own?”Harold's expression fell. “The only thing I'm worried about is that Heidi is pregnant. She can't ha

“Young Miss, are you in there? Please, you need to come out immediately!” Shouted the voice of a maid. Not only did Heidi's forehead pound with pain, but her heart was pounding as well. Exhausted from being deprived of sleep, she dragged her heavy body down from the bed. “What's wrong?” Standing at the door, she covered her mouth and yawned. The maid's eyes darted from her left to right. “G- Good morning, Young Miss. It's your grandfather! He's unwell again!”Grandpa Jeffery. Panicked gripped Heidi's heart. Forgetting to wear even her slippers, she followed the maid down the opposite wing to Grandpa Jeffery's bedroom. Her mother met her on the way. “Where are you rushing to, Heidi?”“Where's Grandpa?” Heidi asked, her eyes darting across her mother's shoulders. The woman groaned. “I need to teach that girl a lesson,” she muttered under her breath. “Why did she wake you up when you're in this condition?”“You haven't answered my question yet, Mum.” Heidi made to walk past her to

… At The Olsens Mansion. The Next Day.Heidi sat on a chair in the mansion's grass field with Isla sitting beside her.She looked through some documents. “Ms. Olsen, the number of signatures you need to put in a day is too many. To lessen your workload, I suggest we find a new CEO now that you are the Group's President.”“It's no biggie, Isla…” Heidi murmured, busying herself with signing the documents.Isla let out a sigh. “Unfortunately, Natalie Olsen doesn't want to take up the position, do you know why, Ms. Olsen?”Heidi didn't know why. Natalie had been acting weird recently. She didn't want to take part in the company's affairs anymore. “Maybe she's more comfortable in her position as the COO,” she responded to Isla's questions, hoping those words would at least put her mind at ease.“Although most of our allies are back, there's still a lot to do, Ms. Olsen…” Isla added in a pessimistic voice. “I fear some of our clients will look down on you.”Like the clients who doubted

Jason?It had been so long since Heidi heard that name. Urgh! That crazy guy who had been so hellbent on marrying her. “You know the kind of a person he is.”“But I heard someone framed him.” Grandpa stared at her knowingly. “Didn't you spike his drink to stop your engagement?”Heidi had done questionable things to her suitors in the past all because she only desired to be with one man.Now thinking about it, she felt bad for those men. Strangely, she didn't regret any of her actions. “Uhm, Grandpa, it's all in the past now…” Heidi looked down. “And the past should be forgotten…” Grandpa Jeffery backed up her statement. “So you should have a fresh start. His father just sent me a message, Jason will be here by tomorrow evening. We'll have dinner together.”Coming to Grandpa's room was a bad idea. If Heidi knew she was going to be fed this information, she'd rather remain oblivious.“Heidi Olsen, do you have any objections?” Grandpa Jeffery used a tone that dared her to disagree.

…What better way to worsen the mood than by adding a touch of a downpour?As Lucas stood at the entrance of the large canopy that occupied the space of the mansion, gloom weighed heavily on his heart. Despite the heavy rain, almost all the inhabitants of Phoenix City showed up. His eyes scanned the crowd, peering at the faces hidden underneath the shades of the umbrellas.Struggling to find that familiar face, his impatience grew slowly and uncertainty clung to his heart.Heidi would never turn down an invitation to Grandpa's funeral,However, what if she didn't show up?Eyes fixed on the large gates of the cemetery, he didn't move from his spot, anticipating her entrance.“Young Master, almost all the guests are here,” the bodyguard holding his umbrella said to him. “It's time for the ceremony.”Someone was crying loudly in the background; the sound irritated Lucas. If only Stella and Blake had lived up to their promises of not showing up. But then, when they heard that the media
