Ring ring…A young man's cell phone began ringing, seeing the caller he smiled and became very happy. It was his wife, he felt so happy, and that was like he had won a lottery because his wife rarely calls him. "Hey sweetie, I am glad you called me.""What took you so long to pick up?" An angry voice inquired."I was busy, glad you called me, are we still on…" He was trying to say, when his wife chimes in,"Look I didn't call you for pleasantries, come to the hospital right now, mum needs a transfusion.""Was that why you called? I thought we were going out." He said."Are you coming or not?" His wife asked with no ounce of love in her voice."I am on my way." Immediately he said that, the call got disconnected.Adrian McCain got married to Linda Pierre three years ago, he loved her so much.

"This is Martins Collins, he is my friend from back in college." Linda enunciated."You mean to say you called your friend from college to come visit you in a hospital while I give out blood to your mother?" Adrian inquired still not getting the whole friendship stuff."We met by coincidence, okay? Why are you so worked up?" Linda asked, frowning."Why wouldn't I be? You are flirting with him, in a place you know I am in." Adrian blurted out."I already told you, he is just my friend from college." She replied.Somehow, Adrian McCain knew that his wife was lying to him, he knew it in his guts and he wasn't going to stand for this.He loves her too much to want to share her with someone not to talk more of her college friend."Don't lie to me Linda, I know when you are lying."Linda who was already getting tired of being questioned yelled out,"Enough!! Why do I have to explain anything to you? You have no rights whatsoever to ask me such okay? You are nothing but a worthless man, you
BELITTLED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 3
Adrian McCain is a very talented and equipped young man, at the age of twenty three (23) he has accomplished more than all of his contemporaries even though he was an orphan.

Adrian thought he heard that wrong because the truth was why would anyone want to have pity on him and even ask they get into their car?If it were to be honest, it had to be from someone who knows him or someone who he has in one way or another encountered and from the looks of this person standing in front of him, he has never set eyes on her before.So Adrian bluntly refused saying,"Thank you, I am okay, I don't need anyone's help or pity."Adrian has always been a prideful person and as such, he is a little bit selective of who he communicates with.He believes he wasn't going to be a pauper for long, and that there was going to be light at the end of the tunnel for him, so he isn't at all intimidated by exotic or luxurious cars and people's wealth because he believes he is going to make his one day.The young lady in question smiled and thought,'He truly is like his father, very proud. I have found him, master.' "Okay, I will tell you something, I hope you become calm when you
BELITTLED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 5
"How on earth would I be the heir to the Louison's? That's too far-fetched and laughable. I mean come on, I am an orphan, how could I be related to the Louison's of all people, please just stop with these lies, and just drop me in the next bus stop so I make my way back." Adrian uttered.He felt whatever Cecilia was saying was definitely nonsensical, even if he was dreaming how on earth would a lowly person like him turn out to be the heir to the entire fortune of the Louison's? Those people were powerful as well as influential, they surpassed all other companies and influential families in the country and beyond.They were at the very top of the pedestal when it comes to wealthy people, in fact only one other family was as rich as them in the country.Adrian McCain who was from a poor background, with no parents and still made his way to the top, didn't even feel worthy enough to even apply for a job in one of their branches because he knew he would be rejected since they were strict
BELITTLED SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER 6
After hours of driving, the car Adrian and Cecilia were both in, came to a halt.Looking out the windows, Adrian felt he was in a strange land, the buildings were all of exquisite tastes and well built.This place or the parking lot they drove into was of course the most famous Plaza in the city, in all of the country."Cecilia, what are we doing here?" Adrian McCain asked as he kept looking around.As far as he knows, his outfit doesn't look worn out so there was no need to stop in front of a famous Plaza, 'SOUTH COAST PLAZA' in the United States."Calm down Mr Adrian, this belongs to your family. The Louison's, they own possession of this plaza you see." Cecilia said humbly."Wow!! This is huge, I am still getting used to all of this don't mind me let's go lead the way." Adrian McCain uttered in bewilderment.Cecilia chuckled and came down from the car and so did Adrian who was following her lead.They got into South Coast plaza and as they walked in, Adrian just kept admiring every

Ceclia smiled at the groups of men in front of her and after exchanging pleasantries, she asked who Martins was;"Do any of you know who this young man is? I want to know who sent him to welcome me." Cecilia said demanding an answer or at least something close to it like an explanation.She doesn't get the reason why someone pervertic would be made a receptionist of some sort."Um ma'am." The board of directors began to stammer."I asked a question, is this young man the one you sent to welcome me as a receptionist?" Cecilia inquired yet again.The board of directors were surprised by this because they didn't understand a word, they were confused and flabbergasted at what Cecilia was saying.They had never met Martins their whole lives so insisting that they sent him to do their jobs was confusing."Ma'am we swear on our lives, we have no idea who he is, he might just be someone who came to get something from the plaza." One of the board of directors uttered sternly."Are you serious

Adrian McCain as well as Cecilia both got into the escalator as it took them upward, following closely behind are the board of directors.After which they entered an elevator that took them to the top of the building into a huge conference room.As they all took their respective positions, Cecilia began by saying;"Welcome everyone, I have an important announcement to make, we have someone important here with us. Standing here today is the man who will run and own this company from now on." After waiting for some reaction and found none except from Adrian who was surprised by this revelation.'What is she saying? Am I dreaming? This is like the biggest company in the entire city. How would they ask me to run it without even having a meeting with me?' Adrian thought.Yes she had told him, he was a Louison but never told him he would be running the company.Cecilia continued;"This the son and heir to the Louison's."All of the board of directors gasped in shock.They never knew any of
