The Secret Heir Return To Wealth And Love

In the backyard vegetable patch, whenever the fruits and veggies ripened, if there was something Max fancied, Calvin would always let him have the first taste.

After all, Max's status in the Moonlit Lake household was sky-high.

The kitten Ivy had rescued from the neighborhood park near their old home had grown strong and wild over the year.

As she matured, she refused to stay cooped up in the cat house. Seizing any opportunity when no one was watching, she'd dart out and run free across the lawns, her spirit as untamed as the wind. Exhausted from her adventures, she'd eventually return to her cat house to rest.

Rosalynn, observing this, decided not to coddle her any longer.d2

Now, the kitten had become the undisputed queen of Moonlit Lake, with Calvin reporting a sudden drop in the rodent population.

Autumn was deepening. The kitten's fur thickened, and she'd sit perched in the trees, watching Max pester Calvin. Then, with a yawn and a stretch, she'd exude utter contentment. Rosalynn watched on.

Time was flying; the pets, the plants, everything was changing.

She started to sort through things, passing them all to Penn. She wanted Penn to consider them for Wayne to see.

Rosalynn had sent Mike off to Munich, arranging for him and a team to stay at Penn's clinic.

It had been about four days since she last checked the surveillance.

Wayne's condition was dire after his physiotherapy sessions. The sight haunted Rosalynn's dreams.

"Sweetie, I'm talking to you. Where's your head at? Come back to me!"

Rosalynn's gaze returned to Hilaria, who was looking at her with eyes full of concern.

"Just work things on my mind," Rosalynn said, gently rubbing the back of Hilaria's hand. "There's a lot going on with Bane Corporation lately."

"You just keep things steady until Wayne comes back. Bane Corporation's already standing tall, and it's raking in profits hand over fist as it is," Hilaria said, her heart aching for her granddaughter. "Why push yourself so hard?"

"Wayne has his long-term plans for Bane Corporation, and I don't want to be just a figurehead. I want to keep Bane Corporation moving forward," Rosalynn spoke earnestly. "I may not have been part of the original team, but I was there during its rapid growth. Bane Corporation's Wayne's baby, but it's mine too."

"Ah well," Hilaria sighed, "stubborn as ever, just like me. Doomed to a life of toil!"

Rosalynn felt a pang of guilt - Hilaria should've been enjoying her retirement by now.

"Granny, I'm sorry," Rosalynn whispered softly.

"Alexis Leanos is a force to be reckoned with," Hilaria suddenly changed the subject. "I'm thinking of grooming her to take on the role of Executive Vice President in a couple of years." After Rosalynn arranged for Alexis to join the sales department at the Jared Group, her performance skyrocketed.

Her team seemed invincible.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

The best part was that Alexis was a team player, never letting her success go to her head and maintaining excellent communication with all departments. Alexis had been open with Rosalynn.

"I didn't join the Jared Group to stay in sales forever. I know you're destined to lead this company, and I want to be your right-hand woman."

In just a year's time, Alexis had won Hilaria's approval.

The position of Executive Vice President at the Jared Group was second only to the president, with the power to oversee the company's operations. "Whatever you think is best, Granny," Rosalynn said softly.
