THE LOST HEIR

THE LOST HEIR (Part 2)

The reunion, as fragile and beautiful as it seemed, was shattered in an instant by the sound of a heavy metallic thud. The ballroom doors at the far end of the hall did not just open; they were blasted inward, the mahogany splintering like matchsticks.

A squad of private security forces, wearing the emblem of a rival corporation, stormed the hall. Their weapons weren't pointed at the guests, but directly at James.

"Mr. Carter," the lead operative announced, his voice devoid of emotion, "your tenure as protector of this family has officially expired."

Victoria Carter, who had been trembling only moments before, suddenly threw back her head and laughed—a sharp, shrill sound that made the hair on Emma’s arms stand up. She stepped away from the crowd, her posture straightening as she looked at her husband with pure contempt. "Did you really think I’d let you ruin everything with this sentimental display, James? You were always too soft for this business."
