I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 11: "You're not important!"
Miguel Xu reluctantly agreed to quit his job as soon as Marcus proved that he had indeed signed with Magic Entertainment. While their initial reason for visiting the headquarters had been resolved, they found themselves unable to leave just yet."What's going on?" Miguel whispered, his confusion mirroring Marcus's."I don't know," Marcus whispered back, equally puzzled.They observed the employees bustling around them, setting up a spacious room for what seemed to be a gathering of sorts."Are they throwing a rushed welcome party?" Marcus inadvertently voiced his thoughts, eyeing the banner being hung on the wall. He couldn't shake off the feeling of unease, wondering what could possibly prompt such a sudden display of hospitality.Concerned that they might have been mistaken for someone else, Marcus and Miguel exchanged whispers."Did they mistake you for someone else?" Miguel asked quietly."I guess so. Should we tell them?" Marcus contemplated, starting to rise from his seat. Howev

CEO Joe Sabal's disappointment and frustration were palpable, causing Marcus to voice his thought, "Reyster is still a nobody? Then how did he manage to blacklist me from every entertainment outlet?""Oh, he did? I haven't even heard his name yet. Even the CEO of Jaypark Steel Co. isn't exceptional," replied CEO Joe Sabal."Seriously? Then I was bullied by someone who hasn't achieved anything yet?" Marcus said, shocked."What are you saying? He bullied you?" CEO Joe chuckled. "Gregory Williams treated everyone in Jaypark like his disposable servants. I thought you were onto something for being associated with Philip Cheng, but you don't know that?""Well... I..." Marcus faltered. "Then how did he...?""Hmm, I'm curious too. Shall we find out?" CEO Joe said excitedly, as if he had stumbled upon something interesting."How can we?" Marcus inquired."I have a meeting with the Sebastians tomorrow. It would be amusing to bring something to shake them up a bit," CEO Joe said."This will shak
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 13: "Bad News"
Vice Chairman Harold Sebastian was growing increasingly uncomfortable with the way CEO Joe addressed him, feeling a growing disdain for being publicly humiliated. However, aware of CEO Joe's influential connections, he dared not risk further offense."I apologize sincerely for this incident. I was completely unaware of my nephew's actions," Vice Chairman Harold stated, his tone strained."Is your nephew a troublemaker?" a curious director interjected."I've heard he doesn't even hold a management position yet and he's already causing problems," added another director."If you're eyeing a government seat, you'd better sort him out quickly," chimed in another executive.Harold felt his neck vein bulge as he forced a smile to quell everyone's curiosity.Contrary to the public's perception of him, Vice Chairman Harold was meticulous about maintaining his reputation and credentials, driven by his ambition to wrest control of the managerial rights from his brother-in-law's family."There mus

Marcus rushed to the hospital, his heart pounding with worry as he desperately searched for his brother. Bursting through the doors, he approached the reception desk, his voice trembling."Where’s Miguel Xu? I’m the one you called a while ago," he said, his voice quivering."Ah yes, he’s in the ER right now," the receptionist nodded sympathetically and directed him towards the emergency room. "Please wait in the lobby as the operation is still ongoing. Please fill out this form while waiting.""O-okay…" Marcus responded with a shaky tone. He looked at the form that the nurse handed him. The letters seemed to dance on the page, blurred by adrenaline and anxiety. Taking the form and pen, he sat in the lobby as instructed."Are you alright?" a police officer suddenly approached him, patting his shoulder."Ah! What happened? Do you know what happened to Miguel?" Marcus jolted, startled by the unexpected touch.The officer was taken aback, perplexed by Marcus's sudden closeness."W-we're n
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 15: "Nothing's going right"
The next day, as the sun began its ascent over the city skyline, Marcus sat beside Miguel's hospital bed. The soft morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a gentle glow on Miguel's face as he stirred from his unconscious state.Marcus's heart leaped with hope as he watched his brother's eyelids flutter open.Leaning closer, his voice filled with warmth and concern, he asked, "Miguel, can you hear me? How are you feeling?"Miguel met his brother's gaze; his expression was a mixture of confusion and pain. He attempted to speak, but only managed a hoarse whisper.Marcus reached for a glass of water on the bedside table and gently helped Miguel take a sip, easing the dryness in his throat.Once Miguel seemed more comfortable, Marcus spoke again, his tone soft and soothing. "Do you remember what happened, Miguel? Can you tell me?"Miguel's lips tightened, and he averted his gaze, his eyes flickering with fear and apprehension. Marcus's heart sank at the sight, sensing his brot

Marcus grew increasingly desperate to find his brother's assailant, knowing he also had to prove his brother's innocence."Please double-check the witness's initial statement. The second one is definitely incorrect. My brother isn't a drug addict! Even the gang members denied any connection to him!" he pleaded.The police officer sighed, offering a sympathetic glance. "I understand your frustration, but for now, please step out. We'll ensure our investigation uncovers the truth," the investigator assured, guiding Marcus out of the station."But... But—" Marcus attempted to protest, only to be abruptly escorted out.Left standing outside, his anger burned as fiercely as the summer sun."I have to find them myself," he muttered, torn between the composite drawing on his phone and the medical bills in his hand, unsure which to prioritize.As he scrutinized the suspects' faces in the composite drawing, one seemed oddly familiar."Have I seen him at the university?" he pondered, swiftly se
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 17: "Daring son-in-law's wife"
Philip Cheng's sleek black car glided up to the gates of the William Family estate, its imposing facade casting a shadow over them.As they approached, the gates swung open smoothly, revealing a winding driveway flanked by manicured hedges and ornate fountains.Philip turned to Marcus, who cut a striking figure in his impeccably tailored suit and sleek mask."We've arrived," Philip announced as the car halted in front of the grand entrance. "Just play it cool; it’s better for you to see for yourself how Greg was treated here.""Got it," Marcus replied nonchalantly, adjusting his mask before stepping out of the car. As he strode towards the entrance, he couldn't help but marvel at the sheer opulence of the mansion before him.The sprawling estate was a masterpiece of modern architecture, boasting towering columns, marble statues, and glistening chandeliers visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows.Philip followed closely behind, guiding Marcus through the impressive foyer and into
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 18: "Practice Face Slapping"
At William Estate, every room boasted lavish furnishings and exquisite décor, except for the son-in-law’s quarters.Marcus had expected a bedroom akin to a five-star hotel suite, but what he encountered was worse than his room back at their apartment."Damn. Who's supposed to clean this?" he muttered, surveying the vast, dusty space.After an extensive briefing from Philip Cheng and Margarette William, lasting more than an hour, Marcus was directed to Gregory William’s bedroom to rest and gather his thoughts. However, the deplorable condition of the room proved to be a significant distraction.“Unacceptable. Absolutely unacceptable,” he declared loudly, his dissatisfaction evident in his haughty tone as he observed the room's neglectful state.Marcus attempted to summon Greg’s assigned servants through the intercom but received no response.“A filthy room and neglectful maids?” Marcus sneered. “Should I start taking action now?”Determined to address the issue personally, Marcus arose
