The security guards were surprised that Chloe, the assistant to James Weaver, was showing respect to this "loser" and referring to him as Mr. Morgan. They were confused about who Richard was and why he was being addressed as Mr. Morgan. Chloe quickly ordered them to pay their respects to Richard.
They immediately bowed to him and apologized. "We are sorry, Sir. We never knew who you were," they said apologetically.
Richard was surprised to be receiving such attention. He hadn’t been expecting anything like this. He told them to get up, explaining that they were only doing their job. Then, Chloe led the way while Richard followed her from behind.
As they walked through the Morgan Empire, Richard couldn’t help but be distracted by the beautiful designs and luxurious items his eyes could see. He had only heard about the Morgan Empire before, and this was the first time he was gaining access to it. The Empire was far more than he had ever been told about. Richard couldn’t help but keep looking at everything. When Chloe noticed this, she knew it would slow down the progress if Richard kept looking at everything.
“There’s plenty of time for you to look around after your meeting with Mr. James, but for now, we need to meet him,” Chloe said to Richard.
"Right, let's go and meet Mr. James," Richard replied, following Chloe from behind.
She stopped at a majestic door, unlocked it, and told him, "You can go in now."
Richard could understand why all of this was happening to him. Just as he was about to go in, he noticed a man rushing toward him and bowing in front of him.
“Mr. Morgan, I’m so glad I’ve finally gotten to see you. We’ve waited for your presence, and today you’re finally here with us,” James said.
Richard looked confused, not understanding what was going on, but he decided to maintain his composure and try to find out why James Weaver was acting this way toward him.
"I think you're getting it wrong, or you're mistaking my identity for someone else," Richard said.
“No, Mr. Morgan, I know who you are. You are the heir to the Morgan Empire, and we’ve been searching for you for all these years. Now that you’re here, it’s time for you to take control of the entire Empire. I know all of this might be hard for you to understand but come with me. Let me explain everything to you,” James said, leading Richard to his office, where he offered Richard a seat and began to narrate everything to him.
"Mr. Morgan, I know everything might seem confusing to you, but let me tell you a bit about yourself. You are not just an average young man. You are the heir to the Morgan Empire. A long time ago, Mr. and Mrs. Morgan, your parents, were involved in a car accident, and you were part of it. The accident tragically took their lives. You went missing afterward, and we tried our best to save them, but there was nothing we could do. Before Mr. Morgan passed away, he handed everything over to me, the entire Morgan Empire, and instructed me to find you. Once I found you, he said I should hand everything over to you since it belongs to you. We started searching for you, but for years, we came up empty. Then, we got a lead about you being in an orphanage. But when we went to the orphanage, we learned you were no longer there, which broke our hearts. Just a few months ago, we hired the best technical analysts to track you down, and they successfully located your number, which I used to call you. There’s no doubt—you are the heir to the Morgan Empire,” James explained.
Richard was stunned by the news James had shared. He had always believed he was just an orphan with no parents and nothing to his name, but now he was learning this fascinating new information about his background.
"Are you sure about what you’re saying?" Richard asked.
James then brought out a picture from his drawer and handed it to Richard.
Richard looked at the photo and immediately recognized the man and woman in the picture. There was a little boy with them, and the boy looked exactly like him.
"Who are they?" Richard asked curiously.
"The man and the woman are your parents, and the little boy is you. This clearly shows that you are the heir to the Morgan Empire," James said.
Richard was dumbfounded. He had never imagined being the heir to such a prestigious empire. Just the day before, he had been thrown out of a party because he was seen as a loser. But now, he was being told he was the head of the most prestigious empire in the country. What a turnaround.
James then signaled to his assistant, Chloe, to go get something. A few minutes later, she returned with a box.
Richard was surprised when he was handed the box.
“What’s inside?” Richard asked curiously.
