The Disguised Billionaire She Rejected novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209

Jackson sat at the head of the conference table, impatiently tapping his fingers against the polished surface.

His expression grew darker with every passing minute.

“What the hell is all this about?” he finally snapped. “You called me here for a meeting, yet the CEO refuses to show up?”

The board members exchanged uneasy glances.

Jackson leaned forward.

“Look, you already know who I am. You know everything about me. And perhaps my father never had another son after all, since nobody has ever even seen this mysterious CEO.”

His eyes swept across the room.

“Maybe I’m even the one.”

One of the board leaders calmly raised his hand.

“You need to calm down. The CEO is on his way.”

Jackson scoffed.

,”On his way? Then why-”

Before he could finish, the conference-room doors suddenly opened.

Everyone immediately turned toward the entrance.

For a moment, several board members almost stood up.

Some of them had never properly seen the mysterious CEO’s face. They had only communicated with him through representatives or received instructions through the company’s upper management.

But the two people who walked into the room weren’t the CEO. They were Natalie and Mr. Robert.

Jackson stared at them. “Hmm.”

He looked between the two.

“Which one of you is supposed to be the CEO?”

He pointed toward Natalie.

“No, she can’t be. She’s a woman.”

Then he looked at Mr. Robert.

“Is it him? Wait… is the CEO really that old?”

The room became completely silent.

Mr. Robert simply stared at Jackson for several seconds.

Then, without saying anything, he walked to his usual seat.

Natalie followed and sat beside him.

Jackson’s expression became increasingly irritated.

Pnally, Natalie spoke.

“The CEO won’t be coming here today.”

Jackson immediately scoffed.

“This is ridiculous.”

He leaned back.

“I already know there is no CEO. I’m supposed to be the CEO. I’m the secret son of Mr. Langstone.”

Natalie calmly looked at him.

“We were sent here by the CEO, so let’s not complicate things.”

Jackson’s expression hardened.

“Him, not coming here doesn’t change anything. I am his son.”

Natalie continued calmly.

“You being Mr. Langstone’s son doesn’t automatically give you ownership of the company. or give you some large amoun”

Jackson frowned.

“You aren’t acknowledging me?”

“You aren’t even acknowledged in Mr. Langstone’s will.” Natalie replied

The room became silent.

“So you don’t get to claim his properties simply because you’re his son.”

Jackson immediately reached into his briefcase and pulled out several documents. “I show you my evidence! I am his son!”

He placed the documents on the table.

“Even if my name isn’t in the will, I can still claim a share. I know the law.”

Natalie scoffed. “If you want to take it that route, we’re more than willing to follow the legal process.”

Jackson’s expression changed slightly.

“But listen carefully. It will become messy, and you may eventually end up with nothing.”

Jackson swallowed.

Natalie leaned back.

“However, that’s not what the CEO wants.

She looked directly at him.

“You will be taken care of. The CEO has instructed us to determine whether there is a suitable position for you within the company.”

Jackson stared at her in disbelief.

Working?”

He almost laughed.

“In my father’s company?”

Natalie raised an eyebrow.

“What exactly do you expect?”

Jackson clenched his fists beneath the table.

Natalie continued. “Look, the CEO is being generous. That’s the reason you’re receiving this offer at all.”

She paused. “But if you provoke him, he can withdraw everything.”

Jackson’s jaw tightened.

He had come expecting to claim a huge sum of money, but they are telling him he had to work.

But he also understood that fighting immediately could destroy whatever chance he had.

He slowly leaned back.

“Fine. For the time being.”

Meanwhile, that very evening, Mason made his way to Julia’s house, just as they had agreed.

However, when he arrived, he immediately noticed something was wrong. The house was completely dark and empty.

He tried calling her, but there was no answer.

Mason checked his phone. It was already midnight.

“Where is she?”

He called again. This time, the call didn’t even go through.

Mason frowned.

Something wasn’t right.

Julia had promised to meet him tonight, and she wasn’t the kind of person who would simply disappear without saying anything.

“Maybe something happened.”

Mason immediately called Natalie.

“Nat, I need you to locate Julia’s phone. Check the GPS and find out where she is right now.”

Natalie didn’t ask unnecessary questions.

“Give me a few minutes.”

Less than ten minutes later, Natalie’s call came through.

found her. She’s at the Eris Hotel. I’ll send you the location.”

Mason’s expression changed.

“The hotel?”

He immediately left.

As he drove, countless thoughts crossed his mind.

Why would Julia be at a hotel in the middle of the night?

She had told him they would meet at her house.

Something definitely wasn’t right.

When Mason arrived at the Eris Hotel, he quickly made his way inside and checked the location Natalie had sent him.

He reached the indicated floor and stopped in front of a room.

The room number matched the location.

Mason knocked.

“Julia?”

No response.

He knocked again.

“Julia, are you inside?”

Still nothing.

Mason frowned.

He tried the door handle.

To his surprise, it opened.
