Ascendance Of The Underestimated Son-in-Law

Chapter 6

A white RVC jeep suddenly rushed in front of Alex and blocked the truck from hitting him, Alex held his head tightly, little flashback occurred to him admist the sharp pains on his head, he remembers being in the same situation, the head light of the truck and the familiar honk sounds, he held his head and collapsed on the spot.

Alex woke up in a hospital bed and found the lady on red sitting close to him, observing him carefully, she is also putting on red today which made him wonder if all her clothes were red, she stared curiously and expectedly at him and Alex chuckled.

"Have you regained your memories?"

The lady asked rather positively.

"Why would I have regained my memories, am trying everything I can to but its just not coming back."

Alex said frustrated and the lady sighed.

"I thought the accident would trigger your past and maybe..."

"And maybe what...so you set me up, not caring about the consequences but only focused on my memory recovery...I almost died back there."

Alex bowled, his tone was sharp and harsh, shocking the lady, his demeanor seems to have changed too.

"I didn't set you up, even though I wanted something to trigger you..I wouldn't blindly set you up like this, the accident was staged to kill, you saw the angle the driver was coming from."

Alex relaxed when he heard her, at least she wasn't crazy enough to try such feat.

"What happened, were you the driver of that jeep that blocked the truck?"

Alex asked worriedly, he wouldn't want anyone to die for him, he really hoped she was the driver.

"Yes, I am, I happened to be in the neighborhood and saw you, I was about to offer you a ride when I saw the incoming truck and stepped in."

The lady explained, Alex nodded.

"But why are you fine, no injuries or scratches, or you some god or what?"

The lady smiled.

"The jeep is the latest model produced by your family, it is capable of withstanding all collusion no matter the weight."

"Do you say my family and not the organization you always mention."

"Yes, your family produced the car."

This time, Alex didn't doubt her, he just want to recover his memories and know everything himself, instead of relying on some one else to tell him about his past, he would rather find out himself.

Alex narrated everything to the lady, from the text message he received from the hotel to the phone call from the abandoned building.

"I think these three are connected together, why would anyone try to kill me, was I a bad person?"

Alex asked, his eyebrows furrowed with clenched fists, whoever it is trying to bring him down, he would surely crush them to pieces.

"Not that you were a bad person but you went after bad people so you made lots of enemies, they are trying to kill you now after finding out your condition and location."

Alex nodded, he looked into the eyes of the lady closely and intensely.

"Is there any way to recover my memories without these triggers?"

"Indeed, there's a way...I will contact the person and let you know when you could meet."

Alex nodded and got up from the bed, the lady didn't stop him, he hailed a cab back to the hotel, few minutes later, he came out again with the iron chest on his hands.

"Ha...what a small world, if it isn't the trashy son in law of the Wyatt family, I wonder who else could draw attention like you do...hahahah."

A harsh irritable voice of a young lad sounded behind him and Alex suddenly halted, he turned around to face the youngster in his mid twenties, he has a babyish face and girlish status, a second generation heir of the Williams family, he was one of the many suitors competing for Camila but was coldly turned down by her due to his status, he always took his anger out on him whenever he sees him, even hiring a gang to beat him up one certain time.

He had been beaten to a pulp and received ridiculous scolding from his mother in-law that day, he was no saint and he carried this grudge to this day.

"What did you just say?"

Alex voice came out hoarse and threatening with a domineering aura, even the boy shudder in fright but he covered it knowing he had the upper hand.

"What! are you now deaf, don't go around blocking people's way, you filthy thing"

Alex walked close to him steps by step, this was a lonely alley close to the hotel, not many people passed here and the people that passed here usually minded their business, this is the perfect place to teach him a little lesson, he walked up to him and punched him heavily on his face, blood gushed out from the lad face and he struggled to stand up, suddenly, several men rushed in, they were putting on all blacks and covered their faces.

The young lad chuckled darkly.

"You think I would come alone, today is the day you go to hell, you lowly rat dares to touch me...teach him a lesson for me."

The lad shouted crazily and the men rushed at Alex, he smirked and rushed towards them, kicking and punching them, they came at once at him but they were sent flying back with broken ribs and bones, after a while, the men were all scattered on the ground, groaning in pains, the young master Williams pointed his fingers at Alex, he would never had imagined that he would be able to defeat his men who were very skilled in martial arts.

"You...you, what are you?"

Alex smirked, not that he couldn't fight off these men when they attacked him before but he had choosed not to fight them because of the Wyatt family, he didn't want to bring trouble to them, instead he took the beatings. He walked up to the lad who was already trembling in fear.

"Let this serve as a warning to you, don't mess with me in the future"

"Yes Sir, yes Sir..thank you very much."

Alex ignored him and walked away, shorty, he arrived at Daniels shop but he wasn't in, Alex sat inside the store to wait for him, his phone vibrated in his pocket, when he saw the caller ID, he hesitated to pick it up.

"What took you so long to answer the phone, do you think I have the time to waste"

Alex instantly moved the phone far from his ears before the screams from Vivian affect his eardrum.

"Come back to the family tomorrow, its the Patriarch 70th birthday celebration."

Vivian said harshly and directly hung up the phone, Alex placed the phone back into his pockets, he would have not had plan to attend if it was something else, but since it is the Patriarch birthday celebration and he was his benefactor, he had to be there.

After some minutes, his phone rang again, this time its from an unknown caller, he picked it up without a second thought.

"Hello, its Anastasia"

"The red lady?"

Alex asked, he never really knew her name all this while.

"Yes, I've booked a session with the doctor, I will come to pick you now, share your location."

"So quick?"

Alex was impressed, he shared his location and hung up, soon Daniel walked in with a plastic bag, Alex quickly handed him the chest and asked him to break it with whatever means, after exchanging some few words, he rushed outside, Anastasia was already waiting, she zoomed off after he settled in the car.

They arrived at the front of a private hospital, they made their way past the entrance and to a office at the third floor, Anastasia knocked briefly at the door before opening it and going in, Alex followed her in.

"Hello Ann."

A sweet and melodic voice flowed into his ears, Alex attention was drawn to the lady on a white jacket, she is slender and pretty, and exuded a happy vibes, making one unable to resist her charms, her face was curved beautifully and with her sweet smile, she can be said to be very pretty.

"Hello there Alex."

She smiled warmly at him and he wondered if he knew her before, he turned to Anastasia but she winked at him, he couldn't understand her and ignored it and focused on the reason he was here for.

"How do I recover my memory?"

The lady smile suddenly turned into an angry pout, she dropped the file on her hands and walked into the inner room, Anastasia chuckled and walked up to Alex.

"You shouldn't have said that...you and her had a thing back then and she waa really into you, it wasn't easy for her when she learned that you were married."

Anastasia explained and Alex sighed, how was he supposed to know when apparently, he doesn't remember.

They followed the lady inside the room with a dim red light, she requested Alex to remove his shoes and sit in a chair, she gave him a few instructions and asked him a few questions before she began the hypnosis.

After some hours passed, Alex finally opened his eyes, this time it wasn't empty but carried a hidden fire.
