Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law I am Logan Weston
Everyone of them jerked up from their seats at the mention of that. They all had a surprised and wide expression on their faces. "What did you just say?" Grandpa Hilton asked again clearly paranoid. They are were not informed about the president's arrival, he didn't tell them he is going to be here today for the first time after taking over the company three years ago. If he had told them, they could have made preparations in a way that they will kiss up to him and impress him but now, there is nothing like that. "The new president is here Sir, he is checking every departments and checking how well they are working" the secretary repeated again. Hoping that they'd get the message this time around. "Inform everyone to be in order and be on their best behaviour and also prepare a meeting with all the employees. Nothing should get Mr Wellington angry so everywhere needs to be cleaned and properly arranged. The cleaners must make sure that everywhere is spotless, i am sure he will tak
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Dance to his tune
Logan withdrew his hand as he saw that none of them were going to take his hand with the kind of expression on their faces. "I am disappointed that you are all not happy to see me, were you expecting someone else?" he asked and laughed dryly causing whispers among the employees. "Oh well, there is no Wellington. I guess that was what came to my brother's mind when he was buying some of the shares. Do I still need to do more introduction?" Logan asked as he pocketed his hands and relaxed on the table at his back, this time, the smile on his face earlier was replaced with a devious smirk that could send shivers down anyone's spine. "How...are you here? Are you not supposed to be dead? Who the hell are you?" Grandpa Hilton voiced in a stutter. How is it possible that the person who died by his hand is standing in front of him in full flesh? How did he survive it? "Surprised to see me alive and healthy after the stunt you pulled because I found out you were having an affair with your
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Three years ago
Three years ago, Daryl dialed Logan's number to no avail. Logan hardly misses his calls and when he does, he will call back immediately but Daryl has been calling him repeatedly for the past thirty minutes and he has been getting the same answer, Logan didn't pick nor call him back. Just recently, Daryl installed a GPS in Logan's phone without his consent because of how his in-laws have been treating him. He doesn't know exactly why he did that but then, when he saw the location of his brother, Daryl jerked up immediately. They've never been there before and it's just way too far for Logan to go to. It is true that Daryl knows Logan can defend and fight against people to protect himself but when it happens that Daryl have the idea that his brother is in danger, he just doesn't know how to stay still and do nothing. It was weird enough that Logan didn't pick his call repeatedly and getting to know that he is in an unfamiliar place put Daryl made Daryl's mind unsettled."Logan is in
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Auction
"Are you all not enjoying the show? Mine has already started and I am loving every bit of it" Logan said sarcastically. "Go get me a cup of coffee, slave. I don't want it too sugary or tasteless either. If it's not to my taste, you will have to make another one" Logan instructed, turning to Charles Hilton. Even after laying on that bed with his eyes closed for almost four months, Logan didn't forget a thing. He didn't forget anything that transpired between him and these people. "Why are you still standing here? You haven't forgotten the agreement we had right? Unless it's not important, I never forget anything" Logan boast purposefully and confidently. "Of course not Sir, I wouldn't dare to forget something important. I will get you a cup of coffee right away" Charles Hilton bowed and rushed out of the office in haste as Logan relaxed on the table once again. "Now let's make one thing clear, I didn't bring you all back here because I am too generous. I did that for a reason which

"What do you mean? How? The land belongs to me!" Grandpa Hilton yelled after hearing Logan just said. There is no possibility of his mansion being put up for an auction, how is that even possible? "Well, do you want me to explained that to you? You haven't paid tax in five years, do you still not know why? You always insult me for being poor but you can't even pay taxes? How have you been escaping that for five years? Since they didn't seems to know about it, I informed the government and your home has been put up for an auction" Logan took his time to explain since he knew that it'd be worth it. He'd pay any amount of money to see the look on their faces forever. Nothing gives him joy than seeing the displeased and flustered look on their faces. "That can't happen, that shouldn't happen" Grandpa Hilton voiced, hastily trying to dial someone's number."Oh, you want to call your person? I am sure he must've been removed from his position by now" Logan smirked while Grandpa Hilton's
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Another enemy
"I don't need people like you all to manage my company, I will do that myself" Logan voiced which was directed at Grandpa Hilton in particular, he stepped out in a grand style thereafter leaving them with frets in their hearts.The employees kept bowing to him in respect as he walk past them, they were still the same people who were saying degrading things about him three years ago for being a wretched son in-law who shamelessly lives with his in-laws. That was what they thought about him, he probably couldn't have heard that but then, sometimes body language speaks louder than words. He had this gratifying smile on his face when he entered the car and Alfred drove off. "What is your next plan Blue?" Alfred asked."For now, let's merge Gray Co with our companies. It will be under LQ Group from now on, we are also going to bid on the Hilton's mansion at the highest price" Logan pointed out. LQ Group is the name of his organization which has all the companies in it. "Yes Blue" Alfred

The next day...Just like Logan said, the Hilton family house was already auctioned off. Grandpa Hilton attended the bidding and he couldn't help the tears that were streaming down his face and right in front of him, his building got sold to the highest bidder and he couldn't say anything about it. He came in with his face covered with a hat In case people will find out who he is, it will be a hassle for him if they get to find out that an adulterer like they've been referring to him since yesterday is here. They will make mockery of him and ridicule him. The bidders just had numbers without names so he didn't know exactly who it was sold to until it was announced and the person came forward. He opened his mouth wide in astonishment when he saw that Logan came out as the highest bidder. He wants to take everything from him, including his home. Grandpa Hilton stood up in haste as he made his way over to Logan but he was stopped by the securities because his hat fell off in the proce
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Slow and painful
Ava was seated, lost in her own thought when she received a call. She was hesitant to pick at first because it was an unknown number but when she did, she was more perplexed by the news she got. "Good afternoon, is this Miss Hilton?" the stranger questioned. "Yes, this is she" she replied very calmly. "I am Doctor John and I am sorry to announce this to you but your grandfather is in the hospital, he was rushed here earlier but some group of men are at least need his family to be on ground" he informed and once again Isabella stood up on her feet in abruption.

Latest Chapter
New Beginning
One month later...It has been a month since the demise of Grandpa Hilton. He left a note blaming himself for everything that happened and asked Charles Hilton and Ava for forgiveness including Logan. In his letter, he stated that he wouldn't be happy if he lived knowing that he wouldn't have a good relationship with his son again and their family name was already in the mud because of him.His death was a surprise to Logan but it didn't hurt him as much as his family. Maybe it was his way of paying for his sin, Logan didn't have to kill him, he died on his own."You are going to see sister-in-law today?" Daryl asked as Logan sat down at the dining table with them. Logan nodded his head. After Valentina and her father left, Logan has been managing his companies as the CEO. He goes to work like every other boss and does his responsibilities at the office. Valentina became a good friend of his before they left although she didn't stop being flirtatious with him. They talk on the phone
Unexpected death
Logan was in the bathroom for close to an hour, he just stood under the shower and allowed the cold water to pour on his body. He turned off the tap and came out dripping wet in a towel.He dried himself, changed into his pajamas and climbed the bed while checking his mail. Logan restored his old account with the name "001" and also made it public. He knew that people were still looking for his talent up till this moment and it won't take them time to start getting in touch with him again. He checked his inbox, just like he predicted, messages were waiting for him in his inbox. Two were from the company Ryan was supposed to restore their systems and websites before Logan hacked into it and uploaded those pictures and videos while three more were from different companies. He opened the first two messages from those companies, they were asking for his help promising to give him any amount he wanted as long as those things could be removed with an explanation so that their companies
Apologies, forgiveness and a request
By the time Logan got home, everyone was already having dinner. "You are late Blue, have you had dinner?" Daryl asked upon seeing Logan entering into the kitchen. "Not yet, maybe later" he replied and grabbed a bottle of water to drink. "What's the difference between later and now? You might even forget to eat later, so why don't you join us now let's have dinner together. Come on" Daryl persuaded. Seeing everyone's attention on him, Logan felt defeated and sent to sit at the table with them. The maids served his food and he began eating. "How was your first day? Did the lady trouble you?" Daryl questioned. He'd be the only one who would always bombard Logan with unending questions that no one else would. "I don't even want to talk about it, I have to do it just for a year" Logan replied and everyone on the table began coughing. "A year?" Alfred blurted out the question. Realization dawned on Logan and his mouth curved into an 'O' His thoughts were being invaded even as he was
Take her back
"I need to take this call" Logan raised his phone in the air. Valentina nodded and stood up from his chair to a more quiet place with his brows furrowed in surprise. Just how fast does he recover? It was just yesterday or two days back that Logan told Doctor John about the injection."To what do I owe this surprise call from you, Mr Hilton Gardener?" Logan called. He could hear the steady breath of Grandpa Hilton from the other end of the phone. His breath was steady but a little ruffled. A"Logan" Grandpa Hilton called in a faint tone, Logan barely managed to hear his name. "I am Mr Weston to you, I am no longer your grandson-in-law so stick to formalities when talking to me" Logan fired. If there is anyone he hates most in the Hilton family, that will be Grandpa Hilton. He is the most dark-hearted person among them. "Why did you call me? Do you want more of the injection? Or are you sad that you haven't seen me in days?" Logan mocked. Grandpa Hilton let out a deep sigh. It was obv
A call
Logan started at Valentina as if she just said something impossible, he was not sure if he heard her right or probably, he was probably the one reading meanings to it. "What?" He queried. "I am very certain you heard what I said anyway. I want us to be friends, can't I ask for that much?" Valentina questioned feeling disappointed. "Why will you want to be friends with me? For what reason?" He threw the question at her. There should be no reason she would want to be friends with her, they are total strangers who are meeting for the second time today. "Because I want to communicate with you, maybe if we are friends, you will talk more" Valentina gave her reason. Logan nodded his head without saying anything. Right from childhood, he never had any friends. He was the type of kid that everyone avoided because of his physical strength. He usually beats people who find him trouble without giving them another chance to do that again. That made a lot of people his age stay far away from
Let's be friends
Logan had to turn back to see who shot the gun. The gun was shot to the ceiling Andrea, it was just to scare Kelvin and it worked. He laid down flat on the floor together with his sun. Logan walked up to the little boy, picked him up from the floor, and smiled widely at him. "What is your name?" Logan questioned. "Jesse" The boy answered in a baby accent, he couldn't even pronounce well."Jesse" Logan repeated it with a nod. He took a sweet from his pocket and handed it to him then turned to Kelvin with a smirk."I am curious to know how you will react if I pull a bullet into your son's skull right now. He will die because of your stupidity. Don't blame me when that happens" Logan threatened knowing very well that he couldn't do that. "Please don't hurt my son, I am sorry I will pay back your money now" Kelvin pleaded. Everyone in his family will abandon him if anything happens to Jesse because of him."Ah! I thought you said you didn't have the money to pay babe but now you have
Bodyguard
"What do you say Blue? Do you want to be my daughter's bodyguard?" Mr Valdez questioned. Logan had to agree by nodding his head. "Don't bring her with you next time, I will turn down your request then Mr. Valdez" Logan retorted plainly. He only accepted because it was the first time he was asking him for personal help. If it were to be another person, Logan would have disagreed immediately. "Thank you Blue, I promise I won't bring her along again. You can start coming from tomorrow, I will reward you hugely" Mr Valdez excitedly mentioned. Of course, Logan is already aware of that. No other client pays more than Mr Valdez regardless of the kind of work carried out for him. "Is that all for now?" Logan pointed out. "Oh yes, but I would love you to have something before you leave. We ordered lunch not quite long ago, I am sure you haven't eaten. You always forget to eat Blue" Mr Valdez began calling out to his Valentina before Logan could say anything. "Give him food to eat before
Valentina Valdez
"There is one thing I hate, that is making me repeat myself. Do you not hear the question I just asked? Alex David?" Logan called as he touched his nose in annoyance. Logan entered his car and sat down. "I am sorry Sir but I don't have the video any longer, someone broke into my home and took it away. I haven't been able to reach him after then, I promise you, give me more time and I will get it for you" Alex pleaded. "Do you think I have the time to be waiting for you? I have other things to do than waste my time on you. You don't have to worry about it anymore, just prepare for your funeral because you will end up taking your life when I am done with you" Logan promised. He ended the call right after that without giving Alex the room to speak again just like he did the last time. He dropped his phone and drove out of the vicinity. He didn't get to know the main reason why Ava wanted to see him because he spoke of her past. She didn't request to talk with him just to apologize to
Shame and embarrassment
Logan tapped his foot impatiently as he waited for her to speak but didn't hear anything from her. Ava just stared down while fidgeting and opening and closing her mouth like someone who is lip-syncing. She was truly scared for some reasons Logan wasn't sure about. The old Ava wouldn't hesitate to say anything to him with her little smart mouth, where did that Ava go to? Has the fact that their lives are not the same anymore sunk into her brain and changed her personality? Although it's odd, if anything, Logan never thought that Ava would change being her because she grew up that way. "I have other things to do Miss Hilton" Logan added. He checked his time to see that half an hour had passed. Ava's heart sank deeper in disappointment as he heard him call her by her surname. He is drawing the kind between them for her to know her limit. "What...do you want to drink? I will go and get it for you" She stuttered which made Logan baffled. Ava wants to order a drink for her. That's very
