Genius Kids' Scheme Claiming Daddy's Billionaire Empire novel Chapter 345

Did veem think this was over? 7-4am asked, voice barely above a whisper. This eyes narrowed, the cold fury behind the reminding everyone why he tan Haven Enterprise.

The meeting room had emptied out except for the three of them. Vietor stood frozen, empire crumbling around him while Adams cat at the table watching him squirm. George leaned on his cane, silent is the grave.

Victor’s face twisted between fear and defiance. His hands shook as he tried gathering those useless papers.

You haven’t won, he managed, voice cracking. This isn’t the end.

Adam’s mouth quirked up just slightly. No, it isn’t. Just the beginning.

George stepped closer and flipped through the blank contract pages Victor had been waving around. His face darkened as everything clicked into place. Without a word, he dropped the papers and walked away, disgust in every step..

Victor’s shoulders sagged as he watched his father leave. The other family members had already scattered, nobody wanting to be anywhere near this showdown.

With whatever dignity he had left, Victor walked out, defeat weighing him down like concrete shoes.

That afternoon, cops showed up at Victor’s front door. Their cruiser lights flashed without sound, turning the fancy neighborhood into a spectator sport. Curious neighbors couldn’t help peeking through their curtains.

What the hell is this?Victor demanded, shock spreading across his face when he saw uniforms on his doorstep.

The officers didn’t waste time with small talk. They moved in, reading rights while grabbing his arms.

Get your hands off me!Victor twisted against their grip, eyes bulging. Do you know who I am? I’m Victor Haven! VP of Haven Enterprise!

His wife appeared at the door, gasping in horror as Walter raced down the stairs behind her.

In Silver City!Victor’s face turned an ugly shade of purple. You dare arrest me? You want to lose your jobs?

The lead officer didn’t even blink. Mr. Haven, we have evidence connecting you to a kidnapping conspiracy. You need to come with

us.

Victor fought harder, spit flying as he yelled, My nephew did this! Adam! This is family business!

We don’t care about your family drama,the officer said, clicking the cuffs tighter. Break the law, you face consequences. Doesn’t matter who you are.

They dragged him toward the cruiser while his wife ran after them, begging them to stop. Walter just stood frozen on the steps, watching his dad get hauled away like a common criminal.

Thomas couldn’t stand still in Adam’s office. He kept checking his phone, occasionally glancing at Adam who was parked by the window watching the city below.

They’ve got Victor downtown,Thomas said, swiping through messages. But the case isn’t airtight. He’ll probably blame everything on his thugs.

Adam just nodded. Doesn’t matter. He got the memo.His voice was quiet but left no room for debate. Nobody messes with Irene.

Chapter 345

The doot flew open as Marcus stormed in looking like he’d swallowed a teman

*What were you thinking?he snapped, skipping hello. Getting your uncle arrested? Hes family, for crying out loud!

Adam hummed from the window, his face hardening. Family doesn’t inap family’s He caught himself. -doctor.

You caused a massive headache,Marcus continued, pacing like a caged animal. Cops at a Haven home! And all for an outsider: The whole country club won’t shut up about it.

An outsider?Adam’s voice went dangerously low. Victor wanted to smash Irene’s hands. You get what that means, right? Her career gone. Any chance of me walkinggone,

Marcus dragged a hand down his face. We handle things inhouse! Not with cops and handcuffs in front of the neighbors!

Some lines you don’t cross, Dad.Adam didn’t raise his voice, but it cut like a knife. Victor jumped right over one. Should we give him a pass just because his last name’s Haven?

The question left Marcus without a comeback.

Irene almost got hurt, Adam added, softer now. I couldn’t just let slide.

Marcus let out a long breath, the fight leaving him as he looked at his son’s unmovable expression. Your grandfather’s going to ask questions.

I’ll talk to him,Adam said simply.

Marcus studied his son for a moment, seeing something different in him now. Not just the businessman, but someone who’d drawn a line in the sand and dared anyone to step over it.

You really care about her, don’t you?

Adam just held his father’s gaze, saying nothing. He didn’t need to.

Adam got back to Emerald Garden around eight. His talk with his grandfather went about as expectedtough questions with some grudging acceptance at the end. Old George might be stuck in his ways, but he knew right from wrong.

Irene was already waiting in his place, setting up her equipment when he rolled in.

You’re late,she said without looking up, but she didn’t sound annoyed.

Family stuff,Adam replied, wheeling closer.

Irene helped him onto the treatment table with a gentleness that felt different from before. As she placed the electrodes, Adam noticed how her fingers stayed against his skin a beat longer than necessary, how her eyes met his with something new in them.

They fell into a comfortable quiet, but it wasn’t like their previous sessions. Something had shifted. When their eyes met, a soft pink touched her cheeks before she looked away.

I heard about Victor getting arrested,she finally said, adjusting something on his leg. Won’t that cause trouble with your family? Is George mad at you?

Adam’s eyebrow went up. How’d you hear about that?

A small smile tugged at her lips. Grandfather told me. Word gets around.
