Mr. Barta, who had been holding back for quite some time, could no longer suppress his anger. His face turned red, and his hands trembled as he slammed his fork onto the table with a loud clang.

“You have no shame, Helen!” Mr. Barta said in a cold tone. “At my old age, it’s only natural that I live comfortably like this. Katty provides me with these facilities not because I demanded them, but because I’ve taken good care of her since she was a child. I made sure she went to school and got the best education. I raised our children alone after you left, without even a shred of help from you.”

Mrs. Helen sobbed, but her cries sounded more like theatrics than genuine sadness. She looked at Katty with teary eyes, ignoring Mr. Barta’s words. “Katty, my sweetheart… you know how hard my life has been. My husband divorced me. Now, I’m old and have no one left. I can’t work like I used to. I came here just to ask for your help, my own daughter.”

Katty looked confused, sitting still with wide

    Mrs. Helen stood silent for a moment, clutching her worn-out bag tightly. The reality hit her hard: she no longer had a home. Her ex-husband had thrown her out without a shred of mercy. She had no money, no place to go. Refusing this offer meant one thing—living as a homeless person on the streets. With a heavy sigh, Mrs. Helen finally said, “Alright... I’ll stay at the nursing home.” *** Six months later... The living room of Joseph and Katty’s house was filled with warmth, laughter, and joy. Katty, her belly now noticeably rounder, sat on a plush sofa with a glass of juice in her hand. Joseph, as always, was by her side, gently massaging her slightly swollen feet. “I can’t believe it’s already been seven months,” Katty said with a small smile, caressing her belly. “It feels like we just found out yesterday.” Joseph nodded, pride glowing in his eyes. “Seven incredible months. And tomorrow… tomorrow is the big moment. The G-Clim Changer officially launches. And we’ll fin

    Joseph stood beside Katty, his face calm despite the turmoil in his heart. Before him, Uncle Bura spoke confidently, his words dripping with condescension.The relatives present murmured among themselves, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere.“Katty,” Uncle Bura's voice echoed, “you’re an intelligent and talented woman. Why do you keep holding on to a husband who only relies on you? This Joseph… he’s nothing but a burden.”“Uncle Bura, that’s enough,” Katty said firmly, her eyes sharp and unwavering. “Joseph is not what you think. He is my husband and the father of my child. If you cannot respect him, please watch your words!”Uncle Bura scoffed, waving his hand dismissively. “Why should I? Everyone knows Joseph is just leeching off you. Even all the accomplishments that have been in the news lately… they’re because of your name, not his!”The murmurs among the relatives grew louder. Some began nodding in agreement.A female cousin of Katty suddenly chimed in. “Uncle Bura is right, Ka

This revolutionary device had now become a savior for Earth, mitigating the increasingly uncontrollable threat of climate change.However, Joseph was not content to stop there. He knew that technological progress must continue for the sake of future generations.Today, in a futuristic conference room filled with professors and technology experts from across the globe, Joseph presented his vision for the future of global communication.The meeting room was dominated by white tones, featuring a circular glass table surrounded by ergonomic chairs. At the center of the table was an interactive circular screen displaying a world map with various real-time data. Holograms of graphs and statistics continuously shifted on the walls, adding a high-tech ambiance.Joseph stood at the front, dressed in a simple yet authoritative suit. Before him, dozens

    "This is a laser weapon, which I will call Gun-G. Like a gun, but instead of bullets, it uses lasers. It's a photonic laser weapon integrating the latest advancements in military technology. The concept is simple but revolutionary. I'll explain further if you have questions. Please, go ahead."The professors and technicians in the room sat silently, their eyes fixed on Joseph's second presentation."So, what makes this weapon different from the others?" asked Dr. Hans, a renowned ballistics expert, his tone skeptical.Joseph smiled. "First, efficiency and speed. This device fires lasers at the speed of light, making it impossible to evade. Whether the target is stationary or moving rapidly, it will be hit within microseconds."He continued, pointing at the center of a hologram. "See this—it's the trajectory adjustment system. This allows the weapon to adjust its firing angle with extreme precision, even if the target moves unpredictably. With this, the accuracy approaches 100%."Dr. E

    “I have an idea,” Ramond said, his voice deep and commanding, breaking the silence that filled the room.Jennifer stared at him with disbelief, her eyes narrowing as if trying to decipher the thoughts behind her husband’s words. “What idea are you thinking of this time?” she asked in a low voice.Ramond took a slow drag from his cigar, exhaling the smoke with a measured calmness. “We kill Thalib Guezz.”The words hung in the air like a bomb detonating without a sound. Jennifer froze, her heart pounding in her chest. She turned sharply, her face a mixture of shock and anger. “Are you insane? I don’t agree with this!”Ramond placed the cigar down deliberately, then stood up. Despite his advancing age, his presence was as imposing as ever. “Are you still defending your ex-father-in-law?” he asked coldly, his words cutting like a blade to Jennifer’s heart.“If so, feel free to go back to the Guezz family. Leave me and our children. I don’t need a woman like you!”Jennifer felt as if her w

  • I AM NOT A POOR SON-IN-LAW   CHAPTER 832-JOSEPH, JENNIFER, AND KATTY

    Joseph stood before his grandfather's coffin, his eyes fixed on the old man’s face, now serene with eyes closed in eternal rest.The scent of lilies filled the room, deepening the heavy silence. The coffin was placed at the center of a grand hall adorned with opulent decorations—a high ceiling painted with murals, a massive crystal chandelier hanging above, and sturdy white marble pillars flanking the space.Joseph approached slowly, as though his feet were weighed down. He bent slightly, touching the edge of the mahogany coffin. In a low, almost whispering voice, he said, “Grandpa, your death has taken me by surprise. If your passing was caused by human hands, I swear, I will avenge for you.”From the corner of the room, Jennifer stood gracefully, her sharp eyes locked on Joseph. Despite the distance between them, she caught his words. Her face remained calm, but the glass of water she held trembled slightly.The tension in the room was palpable, pressing on everyone present, though

    After Jennifer left the Guezz family mansion and returned to Aussa, the atmosphere in the dining room felt quieter and heavier.Joseph sat at the now-empty dining table. Katty remained by his side, though she chose to stay silent, giving Joseph space to process everything that had just happened.A few moments later, the dining room door opened slowly, and a middle-aged man in a medical coat entered the room. Dr. Sam, the Guezz family's personal doctor who had served the family for years, carried a stack of papers in his hands. He walked calmly, though his face seemed slightly tense."Young master," he greeted in a low voice, reminding Joseph that he was there on serious matters. "I bring the autopsy results for Mr. Thalib."Joseph looked at Dr. Sam, his gaze sharp and attentive. "What did you find?" he asked in a heavy tone.Dr. Sam placed the papers on the table, opened one of the pages, and showed it to Joseph. "The examination reveals that Mr. Thalib's death was not caused by any c

    In Aussa...Inside a mansion.Jennifer stood in front of a large window, gazing at the dark night sky. Her fingers gripped the soft fabric of her gown as her thoughts whirled endlessly.Heavy footsteps echoed closer, and from the entrance emerged Ramond—her husband. The middle-aged man wore an expensive shirt, exuding a calm demeanor that seemed unshakable by anything.In a low but firm tone, Ramond said, “You don’t need to be like this. Everything will be fine. Trust me, Joseph will never know that we killed Thalib Guezz.”Jennifer turned slowly. Her face was pale, her eyes filled with deep anxiety. She looked at her husband with a piercing glare, sharp as a blade poised to strike.“Not we, Ramond!” Her voice trembled. “It was only you who killed him! I had nothing to do with it.”Ramond sneered coldly. He walked closer, swirling a wine glass in his hand as if toying with it. “Oh, Jennifer… After all these years of being your husband, this is the first time I’ve seen you like this. Y

    In the Hospital Corridor The hospital corridor felt eerily quiet, though the sound of medical staff's footsteps and the occasional beeping of machines broke the silence. Joseph sat on a long bench, gripping his phone tightly, his mind wandering far. Occasionally, he took deep breaths, trying to calm himself. Mr. Barta patted his son-in-law’s shoulder. "Katty is a strong woman. Trust me, she’ll be fine." Before Joseph could respond, the cry of a baby suddenly echoed from the operating room. He immediately stood up, his face filled with happiness. The operating room door opened, and a doctor stepped out, removing their mask. "Mr. Joseph?" the doctor called. "Yes, Doctor?" "Congratulations, Mr. Joseph. Your son has been born." Those words made Joseph feel like a great weight had been lifted from him. He couldn’t contain his wide smile. "Thank you, Doctor. Thank you so much!" Mr. Barta raised his hands in the air. "My grandson!" he cheered. Ten minutes later, Joseph w

    Then.... The sound of rapid gunfire echoed through the air! Joseph stood motionless, calmly waiting amidst the chaos. Heavy footsteps reverberated across the room. Members of the G Alliance emerged from the front door, their rifles still warm from their shots. They had taken down all of Ramond’s soldiers with flawless precision, moving like machines devoid of mercy. The G Alliance members had long trained to shoot in complete darkness, even with their eyes closed. This level of skill now allowed them to dominate their enemies despite the pitch-black conditions. “Turn on the lights,” Joseph ordered curtly, his voice authoritative. Ultra-bright flashlights snapped on, instantly illuminating the room. The light revealed a gruesome scene: twenty of Ramond’s soldiers lay lifeless on the floor, their blood pooling beneath them. The stench of gunpowder mixed with blood filled the air, causing Ramond to cough as he scanned the horrifying aftermath with fear and rage. “You…” Ram

    CHAPTER 843-IN THE DARKNESS

    Jennifer stood frozen in place, her body trembling, her once graceful face now etched with frustration and despair. Slowly, her hand moved to the folds of her dress, drawing out a small pistol that gleamed under the dim light. All eyes locked onto her—Joseph remained silent, his gaze as cold as ice, while Ramond sneered with a smug grin, full of disdain and mockery. Zako, usually quick to act, now watching with a mix of anxiety and helplessness. Jennifer raised the pistol to her head, her hand shaking uncontrollably. "This is all my fault..." she whispered, her voice barely audible. Tears streamed down her cheeks, but no one moved to stop her. She lifted her head slightly, her tear-filled eyes meeting Joseph's. Yet, there was no response from her son—no empathy, no hesitation, just a chilling, unyielding silence. Jennifer’s gaze grew vacant. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes, and without warning, the sharp crack of a gunshot shattered the silence. Her body crumpled t

    The dim light from the chandelier cast sharp shadows across Joseph’s cold face. His eyes scanned the room sharply, observing each person within it. Jacky tried to speak, but no sound escaped his lips. He was barely hanging on, his life slipping away. Joseph glanced briefly at Jacky before redirecting his focus to the three figures before him. Jennifer abruptly stood, clutching a nearly empty wine glass in her trembling hand. Her face was pale, and though she tried to mask her nerves, her shaking fingers betrayed her unease. Ramond, in contrast, lounged casually in his chair, legs crossed as if there were nothing to worry about. Meanwhile, Zako appeared far more alert, his eyes darting between Joseph and the exit. “So,” Joseph’s deep, cold voice shattered the silence, “I come here and find myself... entertained by quite the show.” Jennifer quickly drank the rest of her wine, trying to steady herself. But as Joseph’s gaze locked onto hers, she froze. The woman, typically full

    The room was dark and empty. Only the sound of Jacky’s footsteps echoed, filling the oppressive silence. His eyes scanned every corner, his pistol aimed forward, ready for any threat. But there was nothing—no Ramond, no Jennifer, no Zako. Only the cold air brushing against his skin like an invisible menace.Jacky growled, kicking over an old wooden chair that lay in the middle of the room. “Damn it! They escaped!” he yelled, his anger burning hot. He rubbed his temples, trying to steady the frustration boiling inside him. But before he could plan his next move, something unexpected happened.Out of nowhere, a coarse cloth wrapped tightly around his face. Someone yanked a bag over his head, cutting off his vision entirely.Jacky struggled, punching and thrashing, but his attacker was strong. Two firm hands restrained him with precision. Within seconds, he was forced into a chair, his body tied down with ropes that quickly bound his wrists and ankles.“Who are you?!” Jacky shouted, his

    In the basement...The damp atmosphere clung to the space, making the air feel oppressively heavy.At the center of the room stood an old wooden table strewn with papers and maps. In one corner, Ramond sat on a worn-out chair, dressed in a faded shirt. Despite his simple appearance, his chilling aura remained unmistakable.The creaking of the wooden door broke the silence. Jennifer appeared, carrying two large bags filled with food supplies and water bottles. Her once-elegant dress now looked slightly disheveled, as if the long journey to this hidden place had drained her energy."Ramond," she said softly, lowering the bags onto the floor. "I brought food and necessities to last you a few days. I hope it’s enough."Ramond lifted his head, a faint smile forming on his lips—a smile that was both calming and enigmatic. "My darling," he greeted her warmly, his tone as smooth as ever. "You never fail to impress me."Jennifer lowered her gaze, avoiding his penetrating stare.Ramond rose fro

    CHAPTER 839-WALK INTO THE BUSHES

    Ramond was a name well-known among the global elite, not only for his ruthlessness but also for his uncanny ability to manipulate. However, behind the mask of power he always wore, there was a hidden truth: Ramond owned nothing. Everything—his wealth, assets, and the networks he wielded—belonged to Jennifer. A woman trapped in her blind love for Ramond for years, she had made him a symbol of power in the eyes of the world.Jennifer’s love became a vulnerability that Ramond exploited without hesitation. He played his role flawlessly, presenting himself as a charismatic yet dangerous leader within the global elite circles. Jennifer even elevated him to the position of leader of the global elite, ensuring that all resources were at his disposal. Under his influence, many leaders in the network were willing to take extreme measures to achieve their objectives—whether it was dominating specific economic sectors, manipulating politics, or mercilessly destroying rivals.Ramond became a symbo

    Joseph stood abruptly and said nothing. He cast a cold glance at his mother before turning and walking away. His firm steps echoed as he exited the grand mansion, with Gawali silently following close behind. The tense atmosphere was palpable, yet not a word was spoken between them until both Joseph and Gawali were inside the sleek black car. Once the car door shut, Joseph leaned back, staring straight ahead with an expressionless face. Gawali, seated in the driver’s seat, finally broke the silence, his tone cautious. “Sir, should I contact Interpol immediately? If Ramond is truly involved in your grandfather’s death, we can make him an international fugitive.”“No need,” Joseph interrupted, his tone decisive. “I’ll find him myself. I’ll deal with him personally. No one else is allowed to interfere until I’m satisfied.”Gawali gave a slight nod, understanding it wasn’t the time to argue.Joseph added, “Contact Jacky.”“Tell him to prepare the team.

    The grand mansion was silent, with only the sound of Joseph and Gawali's footsteps echoing against the marble floors.Joseph stepped into the vast living room, its high ceilings adorned with sparkling crystal chandeliers.At the center of the room stood a golden sofa, strikingly prominent amidst the luxurious Persian carpet surrounding it.Joseph’s eyes immediately caught the figure of a woman standing near the large window. Jennifer, draped elegantly in white satin pajamas, stood poised as she gazed out. Her neatly combed hair reflected the faint light from the chandelier, and her face remained expressionless as usual.Joseph exhaled deeply, throwing himself onto the golden sofa with a casual yet calculated demeanor. He crossed one leg over his knee and stared at his mother with a mocking gaze.“So, my mom is still the same as ever,” he said sharply. “will awake when hear commotion.”Jennifer turned slowly, her expression betraying no reaction to his jab. With measured grace, she app
