New Identity

“Honey, how is your new job going?” Miya, who saw her husband coming home from work so tired, asked. “You know, I was very happy when you got an offer directly from Mrs. Moe to work at one of her companies. It is said that Mrs Moe is one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country.”

“Yes, I know about that. However, there is bad news too, Miya. Apart from me working very hard right now, I also want to tell you that the beggar who harassed you is now working there too.”

“Hah? Aren’t you kidding me? Are you serious?” Miya was shocked. Of course, she even felt like she had burned all of Deryl’s files that could have been used to apply for jobs. So it would be impossible for Deryl to work for a big company. “He must be a janitor or coffee delivery guy, right?” Miya guessed again, Alan shook his head perfectly.

“Unfortunately no.”

“So?” Miya asked again.

“He is the head of the company there.”

“What?! You’re kidding, right? I’m sure if you’re just kidding, it’s impossible. How can a beggar become the head of a company? This is unreasonable!”

“At first I thought the same thing as you, Miya. It’s just that then I thought, maybe the man was deliberately disguised as a beggar, I think that’s the only reason that makes sense.”

“Impossible! He was originally poor, and he didn’t have a rich family or anything, Alan!” Miya argued.

Alan immediately looked at his wife, he was really curious why his wife answered like that?

“Why do you believe that you know that man well, Miya?”

When she received a question like that, Miya became nervous. Then Miya tried to seduce her husband again.

“No, I just felt that if it was impossible, how could a company owner disguise himself as a beggar? All that is just stupid and wouldn’t happen in the real world, darling.”

“Tsk! Look, Grandma’s favorite grandson-in-law has just come home from work.”

One of Moe’s family members immediately started talking right when Deryl had just returned home. Deryl stopped in his tracks, then he saw who was speaking. It turned out that the one who said that was Excel.

“Is there something you need, Excel? Yes, I’m busy with my company right now.” Deryl answered calmly.

Excel looked annoyed to see Deryl then he spat again with an annoyed expression on his face.

“Aren’t you the head of the company? Now tell me how much money do you have?”

“Do you need money? Why are you asking me for money, Excel?”

“Can you give me a million dollars? Come on, aren’t you already my brother-in-law, you should give me that money, right? And I think a million dollars would be very easy for you.”

Deryl was silent with an unreadable expression on his face then he held his breath perfectly. Where did he get a million dollars from? But if Deryl said he didn’t have one, Excel would definitely laugh at him, because Deryl was sure that Excel’s request was a test for him.

“What’s the point of all that money, Excel? I will give you money if you have a good reason?”

“Have a good reason or are you just an excuse for not having that money, Deryl? Come on, I want to do business and I need capital.”

“Didn’t you get money from Grandma?” Pushed Deryl again because he knew that Mrs. Moe had given all her family each a business that they had to develop themselves.

Excel then laughed, then he pushed Deryl’s body quite hard. Deryl tried to put up a defense and of course this made Deryl annoyed.

“If you are poor then say you are poor, Deryl. Stop acting as if you are the richest person among us. Just say that you don’t have the money, right? You poor bastard!” exclaimed Excel mockingly.

“How much do you want? Only one million? One million and a half or two million dollars? I can even give you cash right now.”

Excel immediately fell silent, and Deryl walked towards his room. He came out carrying a suitcase and opened the suitcase then took out some money on the table.

“Two million dollars, take it. Just think of it as a gift for one of Grandma’s grandchildren because I have joined and married one of your family members.” Deryl also proved it very elegantly and of course this made Excel immediately wipe his face roughly.

Embarrassed, and slapped. That was how Excel felt now. He immediately took the money and then he didn’t say anything. Even though it seemed very unfortunate if the money Mrs. Moe gave ended up going to Excel, some of it was much better for maintaining his self-esteem than Deryl having to be humiliated by members of the Moe family and always being considered a poor grandson-in-law who didn’t have anything.

The next day, Deryl returned to the office as usual. He came along with Sebastian and the two discussed some things. However, Deryl’s steps stopped when he saw someone who was familiar to him. Yes, that person was … Miya.

Why did Miya come here? This was a question that crossed Deryl’s mind. However, Deryl tried to remain calm and be as professional as possible, of course.

“Is this real?” asked Miya who managed to approach Deryl.

Deryl was just silent and didn’t say anything, but Miya tried to approach Deryl again.

“Can you not get too close to me? My expensive suit will get dirty with your rotten clothes.” Deryl spoke in a very cold tone.

“Impossible! How is it possible that you were originally a beggar and now you are a company leader? Are you crazy?”

“I think the one who is much crazier is you, Madam. Because you have come to a company that is not the place where you work. And I could have called security to throw you out of here.”

“You’re Deryl?”

Miya was still reluctant to believe what she saw, she was still trying with all her might to touch Deryl. However, Sebastian quickly stood between Miya and Deryl. Meanwhile, Deryl immediately slashed his expensive jacket.

“Sebastian.”

“Yes, Mr. Wiltson.”

“Tell the security guard to throw this crazy woman out of here, and give her a few dollars as compensation for her pointless trip here.”

“Yes sir.”
