I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 76: "Amnesiac Princess"
The news of Margarette losing her memories shocked Marcus Xu for only a second.He shrugged and reluctantly said, “Then tell her the truth. Brief her right away. What’s the problem?”He couldn’t understand why amnesia was troubling, assuming it would be temporary.“I came late. Jaucian was also late,” Philip said with a groan.“What do you mean, late at what?”“The chairman got to her first.”“And so?”“She woke with no memories at all, and it was the chairman who filled her in about herself. I lost the chance to correct her.”“It’s not like the chairman will stay with her forever.”“The caregiver the chairman provided will.”“Oh, that’s a hassle. So what she knows now is what the chairman told her, not the real Margarette William we know? And I’m the only one who can tell her the real details?”“Yes. So let’s hurry before it becomes harder for her to believe us.”“Okay.”Marcus reluctantly turned to the door. He glanced at the door of his room inside the penthouse before stepping out
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 77: "Catch someone when they’re panicking.”
In the hospital owned by William Group, where the William family entrusted their health, Philip Cheng hurriedly walked into the elevator after Marcus kicked him out of Margarette’s hospital room. His expression was dark, and the wrinkles on his forehead deepened as he waited for the elevator to reach the highest floor.“Do you have an appointment, sir?” the receptionist asked as soon as he reached the director’s office.“Do I need an appointment?” he responded curtly, his irritation growing when the receptionist failed to recognize him.“Yes, sir. You do need an appointment to meet the director,” the receptionist said politely.“Are you kidding me right now?” he said, slamming his hand on the counter.“What’s going on?” a much older receptionist approached after hearing the commotion and immediately stiffened upon seeing Philip. “Oh gosh, sir Philip Cheng, please come in. The director is inside,” she said, side-eyeing the younger receptionist, who immediately paled upon recognizing Ph
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 78: "What if it’s the real?”
Jaucian Bob and Philip Cheng became extremely busy as soon as their boss, Margarette William, fell into a coma.Her absence was so unexpected that neither of the two most competent employees of William Group were prepared for the sudden surge of work. Not only did they have to cover for Margarette’s responsibilities, but they also had to take on Gregory William’s duties, as the fake obviously couldn’t handle the job of a real CEO of a huge multinational company.“Why is he calling me? He’s Philip’s responsibility!” Jaucian grumbled as soon as he saw Marcus’s name on his phone.He glanced at his phone for a few seconds before returning his attention to the file of work he needed to finish.He let his phone ring, hoping Marcus would pass whatever issue he had to Philip Cheng instead.“Why does he keep calling me?” he said after seeing Marcus call him again.“Call Philip Cheng instead!” he yelled as he finally picked up the call.“Where are you? Your dearest boss is finally awake,” Marcu
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 79: "Who is really on my side?”
Fermina entered her daughter's room with a contorted expression, irritated after encountering Marcus on her way.“Why is he here?” she demanded, her expression worsening as soon as she recognized the logo on the lab coat of the doctor examining her daughter.“Good afternoon, Madam Fermina,” Philip said, hurrying towards her, surprised by her sudden visit.“Hey! Don't touch her!” Fermina yelled protectively, ignoring Philip. “Call security!”“Please calm down, madam. I called him,” he clarified.“You called him? You called someone from Pilmon Medical? Isn't William Group far superior?” she retorted incredulously.“We had no choice, madam. The director said there’s nothing he can do, so Sir Gregory decided to try Pilmon,” he explained, using Gregory’s name despite making the decision himself.“Saica said that?”“Yes.”“How worse her condition is? Her memories won’t come back?” she said, hurrying to stand beside her sleeping daughter.“Director Saica couldn't tell but of course, we still
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 80: "Stranger in her life"
The moment Margarette William opened her eyes from her coma, it wasn’t her family or the medical team she saw first, but complete strangers."Where am I? Who are they?" she wondered, unable to move any part of her body. All she could do was move her eyes around the hospital room.“Hey, put one under her pillow too,” one of the strangers said.“They’ll see it right away when someone cleans the bed,” another replied.“They won’t. I heard she’s been neglected. No one will notice.”“Is that really true?”“Yes. Her husband is too busy with work, her family is embroiled in a succession war, and the doctors here aren’t loyal enough to take care of her. She’s basically a withering plant here.”The two men spoke in hushed tones, unaware that Margarette had woken up. They wore hospital scrubs, but it was clear they didn’t belong there; they were there to carry out a shady task.Margarette watched, her heart pounding, as the strangers placed surveillance devices around her room. She instinctivel
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 81: "Sorry Man"
The next day, Marcus Xu sat nervously with his co-actors, directors, and production team, watching the premiere of his web series. He was supposed to monitor the outcome of the first episode they had worked hard to shoot, but his mind drifted to the chaos within the William family.As the opening credits rolled, Marcus shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He should have been focused on the screen, on the culmination of their hard work, but his thoughts were consumed by recent developments.'Who was behind Margarette’s coma? And more importantly, who was targeting her now?'Marcus wasn’t particularly concerned about Margarette herself. His concern was more self-centered: his safety was at risk. Acting as her fake husband had already placed him in a precarious position. The William family's internal conflict now threatens to complicate his double life even further.Beside him, the director, Mr. Lee, leaned in and whispered, “Nervous about the premiere?”“A little. Just hoping the audience
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 82: "Rust on Rusto"
Marcus Xu trembled with anger, feeling cornered by Gerald. His expression contorted in frustration over his current situation, but he relaxed when he recalled a conversation he had overheard through the club members' tapped devices. He monitored them before he went to sleep, usually hearing useless chatter but occasionally gathering useful information.“Why are you forcing me to endorse your enemy, though? You’re going to ruin me for endorsing someone who’ll lose!” he protested.“My enemy?” Gerald echoed.“Isn’t he your enemy? Pablo told me that Reyster Sebastian has already changed sides!” Marcus said, despite not knowing whose side Sebastian had switched to. All he knew from the tiny bit of information he had was that Jaypark Steel Co. decided to change sides to have a better chance of winning the mayoral candidacy.“And who’s this Pablo?” Gerald asked, his voice slowly growing furious, though there was an undertone that suggested the name felt familiar.“Pablo Rusto. He’s also an a
I'm not the Son-in-law Chapter 83: "Rant"
Marcus and Pablo glared at each other intensely.Pablo Rusto had nothing against Marcus personally, but he felt bitter just being in his presence. He knew he was the betrayer and the bully, yet he couldn't help but resent Marcus.“What’s his deal? Where did he get this sudden luck?” Pablo wondered inwardly, his glare intensifying. “I only bullied him because of Reyster. Plus, he was quite pathetic. But what’s his deal now?”Meanwhile, Marcus met Pablo’s glare with a confident gaze, determined not to back down. “This traitor needs to taste misery,” Marcus muttered under his breath.“What did you say?” Pablo asked, feeling mocked.“I said, while staring at you, I noticed your hairline is receding,” Marcus replied, almost provoking Pablo into throwing a punch.“Please, don’t fight,” Mr. Lee pleaded, stepping between them.“We’re not fighting, Director Lee,” Pablo replied smugly. “I only fight someone on my level.”“Well, that’s true. Are you even on my level?” Marcus snorted, then took o
