A man in his early twenties stood before two women of the same age, bowing his head. He didn't know why he was summoned there, but he sensed the disdain in the women's gazes."Do you realize your mistake that led us to call you here, trash?" Callista Cattegirn, one of the two women, spoke. The condescending tone in her voice was unmistakable to the man – Steve, sparing him the need to look up to know.Steve Hart tried to recall any mistake he might have made. He was just doing his daily task as a son-in-law, cleaning his wife's wealthy family's house. Nothing else came to mind until he was suddenly summoned to the living room and berated without a clear reason like this."I don't remember making any mistake, Miss Callista," Steve Hart said.Steve's words were met with a scornful look from Callista. She seemed offended that Steve dared to reply."Shut your mouth. My diamond necklace is missing, and you're the most likely person in this house to have taken it!" Callista Cattegirn exclai
The next day, Steve Hart got up from his bed with red eyes.Steve Hart had trouble sleeping, staying awake all night because something called the system kept disturbing his thoughts."System, you said I could seek revenge with your help. Is that true?" asked Steve Hart.Shortly after, a holographic screen containing a direct message appeared.[Correct, Master Hart]"How can it be? How will that work?" asked Steve Hart.[Very soon, Master Hart will find it out]Steve Hart ruffled his hair. All night, he had tried to satisfy his curiosity, but the system always provided similar answers."Enough, I might be late if this continues," said Steve Hart as he left the room.Steve Hart immediately tidied up his wife's family's luxurious home to complete his task. He was a bit rushed as he had to leave for somewhere later.Around 10 a.m., Steve Hart finally finished his work. He had already changed his clothes and freshened up to leave."Where are you off to so early?"Steve Hart turned to see w
Steve Hart was so focused in his phone that he completely missed Callista's shifting expression. Her face had flushed crimson, a surefire indicator of her escalating fury.Some time ago, Steve Hart had loudly called Callista as a 'jerk'. Just now, he also reflexively snapped at her. Of course, the incident succeeded in making Callista explode with rage."You imbecile, what did you just say?!" Callista Categirn exclaimed.Steve Hart gasped, remembering that Callista was a woman who grew up having everything without having to fight for it. That kind of privilege made Callista intolerant of even the smallest affront."What do you think you'll do if I actually harm your mother, you imbecile?! And even if I do, what could you possibly do about it?!" shouted Callista, her emotions reaching a boiling point.Steve Hart was about to retort when Callista abruptly retrieved her phone from her pocket. It seemed she was making a call, summoning someone to come over.Within moments, several nurses
By mid-afternoon, Steve Hart was back at his wife's family home. He ran from the bus stop to get there, making sweat pour down his forehead."Damn, I'm late," Steve muttered.In the front yard of the luxurious house, the car that his in-laws used to use was parked, indicating that they were home now.Steve Hart realized there was no point in regretting. If he had to accept insults, then only trying to be patient was all he could do.Steve had just entered the house when on the living room sofa, there was already a woman in her 40s reading a magazine, a habit that had been passed down to Agatha, his wife.Olivia Cattegirn, a beautiful woman who looked much younger than her real age. The same woman was also Steve's mother-in-law, one of the people responsible for making Steve's life so miserable."I only left home for a few days and guess what?" Olivia Cattegirn asked suddenly.Steve Hart was silent, not wanting to answer because it would only make his mother-in-law even angrier."My us
Seeing the message of the mission, Steve Hart immediately drove his car towards the direction Agatha had gone with her friends.Although Steve Hart blamed Agatha for his current situation in the Cattegirn family, Agatha was not the one who participated in treating him badly and even tried to protect him several times from the Cattegirn family's inappropriate treatment.Now Steve’s instinct knew that there are bad things Eric and his other friends want to do to Agatha, of course Steve Hart could not just let this happen, especially since Agatha is his wife.Not long after Steve Hart drove his car, he finally caught up with Agatha who apparently entered a bar not far from Avebury University.Not only them, but many other students also entered the bar. Making Agatha’s excuse of attending the welcoming of new students, proved to be true.‘What evil plans do you have for my wife, Eric?’ muttered Steve Hart.As a man, Steve Hart had assumed that Eric had feelings for Agatha, which had not c
"Just come with me, you troublemaker!" exclaimed the bar security, tugging on Steve's arm."No, get away from me!" Steve Hart tried to struggle to release the security bar's grip on his arm, but was unsuccessful due to the difference in their strength."Don’t bother yourself fighting back, rubbish! Just go and I’ll take care of Agatha," Eric Daran said with a smirk on his face.Steve's anger immediately provoked after seeing a smirk on Eric’s face, Steve began to think of ways to release the grip of the security hand so that he could beat Eric who had dared to be presumptuous.In the midst of it all, a woman's familiar voice shout out and brought everything that was happening to a sudden halt."What's going on... Steve, why are you here?" Agatha rubbed her eyes several times, as if confused by what was happening."Get your hand off my arm!" Steve shouted at the security bar, which surprised the security bar into releasing its grip.At that moment, Eric tried to explain to Agatha with
Agatha Cattegirn had just opened her eyes when the dizziness hit her head, she tried to remember what had happened to her."Are you feeling better?"A familiar voice rang out, Agatha immediately turned her head to see who was speaking.Steve Hart was sitting beside Agatha while driving the car, this made Agatha wonder even more about what had just happened to her."Why are you here? Not to mention... didn't I tell you before, that I can't go home yet because I must join the welcoming party?"Steve Hart frowned, wondering if Agatha really did not remember what had happened."I'm sorry if I'm being presumptuous, but I had to pick you up from the party because of an urgent matter," explained Steve Hart, "You're probably still feeling fuzzy from the effects of the too much alcohol you had earlier."Not to mention, Steve was also unsure if Agatha would still have faith in him if she was fully sober at the bar."Did something bad happen to make you do that?" asked Agatha Cattegirn, feeling
After Callista managed to get Steve away from the Cattegirn family mansion, she finally loosened her grip on Steve's arm.Steve Hart glanced at his surroundings, it was a street with trees on the right and left sides. There are almost no other houses, because the area is indeed an elite area where the distance between houses is quite far.Steve Hart, who already knew there was something bad Callista wanted to do to him, immediately put his guard up because the unexpected could happen at any time.Sure enough, not long from behind one of the trees appeared a man who was none other than Eric Daran."Is he going to help you to make me regret it?" asked Steve Hart to Callista.Callista just didn't respond, in addition, Eric continued to walk closer before swinging his fist at Steve.Steve Hart, who was alert from the start, was able to avoid the punch quite easily, this made Eric even more dark eyes by continuing to try to land his punches on Steve.In the middle of each of Eric's punches
The Cattegirn family, who had lost their weapon to fight against Steve Hart, ultimately had to surrender. They tried to figure out ways to calm Steve Hart's anger, which was now glaring at them so sharply."Darn it, what's happening? Are we going to lose all our assets?""What are you talking about? We wouldn't lose everything if we had just accepted Steve Hart's offer from the beginning. If we did, at least Steve Hart would have kindly let us continue enjoying all those assets.""You're right, we messed up."Almost the entire Cattegirn family agreed that their stubbornness had indeed led to losses. Their refusal to submit to Steve Hart now was leading them to ruin."Uncle Jason, please do something.""That's right, Brother Jason. If necessary, tell Steve Hart that we accept his offer.""I agree, at least that's the only way for us not to end up living as beggars after daring to offend him."All the other members of Cattegirn family began pleading with Jason and Olivia to resolve the
"Am I late?"A beautiful girl entered as if nothing had happened, casually approaching Steve to join Brandon in standing by Steve Hart's side."I, Helena Halbert, will represent the Halbert family in expressing support for Steve Hart. Whatever happens here, even if it means offending the Bridge family, the Halbert family will do its best to prove its seriousness in support," Helena said loudly so that everyone there could hear her."Helena, what do you mean? Why is the Halbert family doing this? Does that scumbag deserve your support like this?" Mark Bridge asked, not expecting Brandon alone to support Steve Hart, let alone Helena.Mark, who initially believed he could stubbornly make Agatha his fiancée, suddenly doubted whether this was worth it or not.Mark might still have confidence in handling the Lee family easily, but if the Halbert family also intervened, then this was a different story.The Bridge family might be strong and surpass the other two influential families in Avebur
BAM!Steve Hart's punch landed squarely on Mark's chin, causing Mark to stagger before falling because he wasn't prepared for it."Damn it! How dare you!""Everyone, move to protect Mr. Mark right now!""Stay away from Mr. Mark, hit him if necessary if he keeps trying to resist!"Quite a few people in the living room reacted strongly to Steve Hart's punch. Steve Hart didn't recognize who they were, but he could guess that they had come with Mark."Darn, for someone who dares to try to put your hands on my wife, you're quite the coward," Steve Hart said to Mark.Mark Bridge heard this and immediately ordered them to stop. Mark didn't want them to get involved because it would hurt his pride."Haha, you can go," Mark said, rising from his fall."Mr. Mark, are you okay?""Mr. Mark, why are you stopping us from teaching him a lesson?""Mr. Mark, that scumbag has gone too far, he should at least feel a few broken bones as punishment."The people stopped by Mark seemed dissatisfied; they qu
Steve Hart returned to the living room with confidence, the presence of Mark Bridge not bothering him in the slightest, let alone making him fearful.Simultaneously with Steve Hart's appearance, Agatha followed closely behind him. Agatha seemed to be hiding behind Steve Hart, afraid of every person in the living room, not wanting to feel the hateful gazes from them due to her sudden change of decision.Initially, Agatha had agreed to her engagement, pressured by her family to make that decision. Seeing her suddenly change her mind naturally angered every Cattegirn family member present.The Cattegirn family felt betrayed by Agatha, their sole rescuer, if only Agatha hadn't suddenly turned to side with Steve Hart like she was doing now."Agatha, what is the meaning of all this?!""Agatha, didn't you already agree to this engagement?!""Agatha, are you insane to decide to side with him and plan to disrupt your engagement with Mark?!"Each member of the Cattegirn family present asked ang
Steve's sudden entrance truly succeeded in catching the entire household off guard. The living room was indeed bustling with activity, mostly from the Cattegirn family, but there were also quite a few unfamiliar faces that Steve didn't know."Am I interrupting your event?" Steve Hart asked, his tone piercingly cold to those who heard it.Steve's question was not well-received by most people there; one of them even approached Steve with an angry expression.Olivia Cattegirn, Steve's mother-in-law, approached him and promptly pulled him away from the living room."What wicked plans do you have by coming here?!" Olivia exclaimed loudly, simultaneously slapping Steve's hand.Steve raised his eyebrows; he remembered vividly how just a few days ago, his mother-in-law seemed so hesitant and even afraid of him. Now, that fear seemed to have vanished, and Olivia appeared to be back to treating Steve as she pleased.Steve didn't dwell on Olivia's change in attitude. However, he already knew the
In the luxurious courtyard of the Cattegirn family mansion, Steve could see it bustling with invited guests, all of whom seemed surprised by his presence, as if his arrival was the last thing they expected."What's he doing here? Wasn't he supposed to be kicked out?""Maybe he's here to deal with his divorce from Agatha. Just let it be, there's no need to pay him any mind."Steve overheard the nearby conversations clearly, which only fueled his anger.Steve knew exactly why they were all gathered at his wife's family home. He had heard it from Brandon that the Cattegirn family was secretly attempting to arrange a marriage for Agatha behind his back."Agatha hasn't even divorced me yet, and you're all rushing to make decisions," Steve Hart muttered.Steve questioned what the Cattegirn family truly thought of him, realizing how much they were belittling him and disregarding his existence.Steve could entertain such thoughts because the marriage arrangement the Cattegirns were attempting
Having to endure the barrage of punches from Steve Hart, Howard, accustomed to instilling fear and commanding respect from others, suddenly found himself questioning his own abilities.This dealt a severe blow to Howard's pride. His confidence waned, along with his courage. Confronting Steve Hart, who stood before him, Howard realized the extent of his terror, rendering him powerless against Steve's onslaught."W-Wait, please cease hitting me," Howard pleaded softly, gazing at Steve Hart, yet Steve appeared disinclined to comply."Why should I acquiesce to your request?" Steve countered.Howard clenched his teeth, feeling overwhelmed by it all, then erupted vehemently, "Enough, you lunatic!"Howard's shout managed to stun Steve Hart for a moment. Seeing an opportunity, Howard immediately tried to break free from Steve Hart before running as fast as he could to escape from there.Steve just watched Howard running away from him, he had no desire to chase him, thinking it would just be a
After hearing the disrespectful words spewing from Steve Hart's mouth, Howard Harris immediately took steps to attack Steve Hart.Howard attempted to strike Steve Hart with all his might, intending to make Steve Hart fall with a single blow."Damn, do you even know who I am?" Howard asked as he swung his fist.Howard's punch was easily handled by Steve Hart, who dodged it effortlessly, almost as if he had done it without even trying.Howard Harris didn't give up after Steve Hart successfully avoided his first punch. He immediately tried to swing another punch, this time aiming for Steve Hart's abdomen.Steve quickly leaped backward before the punch could land on his abdomen, once again successfully evading Howard's attempted punch."You're quite impressive," Howard Harris said.Steve Hart smirked, "I could do it because your punch was too weak, there's nothing to boast about in that."Howard Harris glared at Steve Hart sharply, suspecting that Steve didn't know who he was to dare say
Steve Hart left the hospital with a wide smile on his face, not expecting his plan to instill a sense of remorse in Daniel to go so smoothly, but everything went according to his expectations.The $10 billion now in his pocket was evidence of his success, making Steve even more excited to step into a brighter future.The success of making Daniel realize his mistake didn't satisfy Steve. He felt there was one more thing he needed to do, which was to get an answer from the Cattegirn family regarding his offer.After a few days had passed, Steve felt it was enough time for his in-laws to decide on his offer. This prompted him to drive his car to the main house of the Cattegirn family to get the awaited answer.Steve arrived there with high hopes that his in-laws would accept his offer, especially since he made the offer solely for the happiness of Agatha, his wife.On his way to his wife's family house, Steve saw a girl who seemed quite familiar to him.The location where Steve saw the g
