My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 22 : Reality check
Carlos drove Dean and Mia to the Hamilton family compound.There he dropped the couple off and drove the vehicle away to prevent anyone from the family from noticing it.As Mia and Dean entered into the compound, Mia wanted to excitedly run inside the house to present the contract to her parents, but Dean held her back.He wanted to ensure that he was able to take control of whatever situation would arise.The couple both enter into the house's living room, there they see grace frantically cleaning up the place.“Grace” called out Mia.“Mia?” replied Grace as she turned to see Dean and Mia standing behind her. “Oh Mia, it's good to see that you are back” she added, with a smile on her face.“What's going on?, why are you rushing to clean up the place” asked Mia.“Oh, your grandfather told me to make sure the house was presentable, apparently, we will be getting a visit from a pretty important man, very soon” replied Grace.Dean and Mia looked at each, with the exact same thought in th

“Did you design this house Andrew, because if this kind of design is what I can expect from your work, perhaps I will have to re-evaluate our deal” said Michael, chucking slightly.Andrew laughed nervously at Michael's words, he knew he wasn't physically allowed to show how much they offended him.This was why he had to reach the top of the Reville elite hierarchy, to ensure that no one would ever be able to speak to him in this way, ever again.“I was my grandfather who designed the building almost a hundred years ago” said Harry, making Andrew breathe a huge sigh of relief that he didn't have to be the one to respond.“That's probably why the compound has a much more, Victorian aesthetic, it wasn't built for the modern day, but we are still proud of it as a family” added Harry, hoping to retain some pride in his family's home.Michael laughed loudly at Harry's words, making sure to open his mouth as widely as possible, to make sure the duo of father and son saw just how disrespectfu

“Your daughter?, why the hell did you tell me about a bloody statue, before you told me about her?”Michael's words made Harry and Andrew even more excited, now there was no doubt in their minds that he was interested in Mia.Now all Mia had to do was not mess it up, and they would have a ticket to expanding their wealth and power through an alliance with the Phillips's.Harry began walking briskly towards Mia, however as he did so, he was so smitten by her that he did not notice the pair of eyes that watched him from beside her.Dean noticed the young man intently walking towards his wife, and he was determined to make sure that he knocked him out of his high horse.“Well hello there” said Michael, trying to be playful as he finally got close enough to Mia.Mia flashed Michael a hostile look and asked, “who are you?”With a smile, Michael responded sarcastically, “Oh… I'm no one important, just Michael Philips”.“Who?” Mia asked again, this time raising an eyebrow.“Come on, baby, yo

“JUST TAKE THE GODDAMN MONEY TIMOTHY” yelled Sophia, her voice cracking with anger.She couldn't believe what she was seeing, the family was so close to wealth and power, and yet here Dean was, blocking them.She also shot her daughter an angry stare, that caused Mia to shudder in fear.Sophia partially blamed her daughter for this, as Dean wouldn't be here embarrassing Michael Phillips, if Mia had decided to listen to the family, and divorce him. “I can't accept only two and a half million dollars Sophia, I truly do love your daughter, and it would be a shame to dissolve our marriage because of such a negligible amount”Sophia stared at Dean intently, she didn't know if he was joking or being serious.While she didn't ever think that Dean would sell her out for money, she still didn't know how he would get out of this situation.The Hamilton family wasn't going to rest until they got him out of their home for good.However, despite how worried Mia was, she was going to put her trust

“I'll ask you again, WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!” yelled Michael.“And I will say it again, your companies aren't successful” replied Dean.The Hamilton family was collectively dumbfounded, Andrew wanted to say something but eventually decided to keep his mouth shut, at this point, nothing could defuse the situation.Dean had disrespected Andrew too much.“Come on Michael, you own all these hotels, shops, bars and dealerships, but you're running them all to the ground” Dean continued.“I have gone to some of these stores, and they are so badly managed and have so little customers that I constantly asked myself how they could possibly stay open, until… I eventually got the answer…"“You're using the incredible amount of wealth your father has to prop up your failing companies and inflate your net worth”Dean was now ready to deliver the final blow to Michael's Ego.So, with a smile, he said, “You have failed so much, that your failures are the only thing that's interesting about you, so mu

Everyone in the hall room had their eyes fixated on the television screen.As unbelievable as the bold headlines were, everyone knew they weren't imagining things.“PHILLIPS FAMILY SECURITY BUILDING DESTROYED, REVILLE'S PHILLIPS FAMILY, IS FINISHED”.Dean stood back, folding his hands and watching the scene unfold in front of him.Seeing Michael, who had been so brash and boastful only a few minutes ago, fall to his knees in shock and horror made Dean very pleased.Dean's plans had been wholly successful.He had cooked up this exact scenario the moment he knew that Michael Phillips, a member of the Phillips family, and third son of one of the people who killed his mother, was coming to visit the Hamilton's.Since he did not want the family, and especially Michael, to see him using his state of the art, high-tech Tablet, he had configured his phone much earlier to be able to sync to the tablet once a two-way authentication had been confirmed.He had explained the plan to Carlos and han

“I disown you”The words echoed constantly in Mia's ears, as she fell to her knees in complete defeat.Dean knelt bedside her, and could see the complete look of pain and defeat on her face.This caused him to hug her tightly and whisper to her “it's all right Mia, don't worry… it'll be okay”.“No it will not” interceded Harry, “I am not a massive fan of repeating myself, but I will say it again… leave this house, or I will call the police and get you thrown out”Mia sighed, she wanted to cry, but at this point, she had cried so much that tears could no longer come from her eyes.Mia just knelt on the ground, breathing heavily for a few minutes, in her heart, she wished her grandfather would turn to her and tell her that he had reversed his decision.But she knew this would never happen, she had completely destroyed her relationship with her family.Although she told herself she had never wanted this to happen, she knew that she fully expected this to happen. Dean was never going to g

“RICHARD DAWKINS?, the legendary private investigator?” asked Eric, in absolute shock“That's the one” replied Marko, confidently.“ARE YOU INSANE?!” asked his brother Jonathan, “I THOUGHT YOU SAID WE WERE BANKRUPT, WE CAN'T AFFORD HIM”“Relax Johnny, it's alright… I've got a plan”.Richard Dawkins was the undisputed, greatest detective that Reville had ever seen. He had burst into the scene of Reville's criminal investigations only five years ago.His origins are completely shrouded in mystery, because of this, no one knows where he came from or where he developed his seemingly superhuman investigative skills.He was also notoriously elusive, he loved to keep a low profile and wear a face mask when he walked around, because of this, very few, if any, even knew what he looked like. Despite his concealing of his face, it was obvious to Marko that he was young. Marko had actually met Richard Dawkins once before, when he was conducting an investigation into a fire that ripped through th

Chapter 111 : Epilogue
Both Dean and Richard stood outside of the Phillips family mansion, neither man saying a word to each other for several minutes.At long last, Christopher Newton, the main man responsible for everything that had happened to him and his family, was finally dead.However, he didn't feel fulfilled, not quite yet... because his revenge was not yet complete."The Hudson's" Dean finally said, as Richard turned to look at him."What?" asked Richard, not exactly sure what Dean was trying to say."The Hudson's are the last piece of this puzzle, they're the last of the four heavenly kings of Reville, responsible for the death of our mother... for the death of our family" said Dean.Richard sighed, the Hudson's were an enigma, even to a detective such as himself.They ran the Hudson petroleum company, an oil drilling and processing company that owned many refineries, plants and facilities, with the largest one being located right

Chapter 110 : War of the elites
Dean awoke at the Hamilton family residence.Neither he nor Mia had gotten any real amount of sleep, as the entire family was completely freaking out over what had happened to them last night.What's worse, their panic became even greater when they saw Mia return to the house without Dean, in a car riddled with bullet holes.Dean couldn't help but stare at the recording box Richard had sent to him several days earlier.The box had contained an emergency message from his father, a message for his two sons, informing them of all the events that were transpiring between the Bradson family, and the other members of the four heavenly kings of Reville.Richard had gotten the box through his years of investigating the Dean of their family, and it was the key to how he had acquired all the information he told Dean about.Dean knew that the danger hadn't passed from last night, he could feel it in his gut.However, after everything th

Chapter 109 : Assasination Attempt
"Well well well, if it isn't crippled Mia" said Raymond as he slowly approached Mia's table.Dean turned to stare at the man in anger, not appreciating how he had just spoken to his wife."What the hell do you want Raymond?" asked Mia, annoyed, while also trying to not escalate the conversation."What's the matter Mia?, I mean you no harm... I'm just here to congratulate you on getting your legs back, I mean when I heard it had happened I couldn't believe my ears, but I guess now that I see it... my eyes do not deceive me" replied Raymond, his voice maintained a mocking tone throughout his reply."Well thanks a lot Raymond, you've seen me... I've got my legs back, so please leave me alone" pleaded Mia, as she desperately tried to get the man away from her.However, her attempts proved futile, as Raymond wouldn't let up.Chuckling lightly, Raymond said, "Even after everything your family has done, you still end up here, at the cor

Chapter 108 : A high stakes party
Christopher Newton sat on his office chair with his face buried in his palms.This was absolutely not how he thought everything would be going one year later.Ever since the assasination of his father by those unknown culprits, it seemed like his entire world had been turned upside down.Culprits whose identities, he still did not know.This ached him in his heart more than he had ever thought possible.He had hoped that he would have been able to uncover their identities by now, but they were like ghosts... invisible to everyone and everything.It seemed like everything that could have gone wrong had ended up going wrong, and now he was losing everything he thought he'd have by now.After the destruction of the Phillips security building, Christopher had seen the perfect chance to increase his power, and the power of his entire family by essentially buying out the Phillips family.However, due to Eric Phillips stubb

Chapter 107 : The hunt for legacy
Dean awoke from his slumber, his head pounding heavily from all the thinking he did the previous night.He looked to his side to see Mia lying there, sleeping happily without a care in the world, and as much as he had always promised himself that he would do everything in his power to keep it that way, he slowly began to feel like perhaps he wouldn't have enough power to protect Mia as well as he would have hoped.Dean looked at his watch, and the time was 5:17 am, usually, Dean would start doing his routine exercises at this time, but instead he remained in bed thinking about everything that had happened over the last three days.The shocking revelation that Richard Dawkins, the man he had just been trying to kill two days ago was his brother, still haunted him.It felt like a dream, one he could never be wake up from.After Richard Dawkins had explained to Dean that he was his brother, both men had realized that there was no longer any point

Chapter 106 : The big reveal
Dean couldn't believe what he had just heard Richard say, and by the look on Richards face, even he was just as confused as he was.Even Carlos had quickly walked over to where his boss and Dawkins were, so that he could confirm if he had indeed heard what he thought he heard "What did you just say?" asked Dean as he tightened the grip on his blade lightly.Seeing that Dean had let his guard down, Richard quickly knocked the knife out of his hand and pushed him away.Dean slammed his fist on the ground the moment he saw that Richard had once again escaped from him."OH, is that what this was?... A TRICK!?" yelled Dean, enraged with himself that he had fallen for such a cheap trick.However, unlike before, Richard wasn't trying to run away anymore.Instead, he just stood a few feet away from Dean, clutching injured shoulder, and staring at Dean.Dean noticed this and was slightly taken aback by it, but even more than

Chapter 105 : The battle of the warehouse
Quickly stepping out of his hiding place with two guns in hand, Richard Dawkins was now face to face with his two assailants, pointing a gun at each of their faces. Speaking of their faces, Richard could immediately see why his assailants didn't seem to show any reaction to the smoke bomb he used.They both had on Guy Fawkes masks, and Richard believed that they probably had a sort filtration system, hidden within the mask that allowed them to still breathe properly when the gas filled the warehouse."So Comet sent only two men to take my life... you must not think very highly of me" said Richard, trying his best to pretend to not be intimated by the two large men.He was no small man himself, but seeing the two large men in front of him, barely even flinching despite having a gun pointed as both of their heads was certainly unsettling."Oh, do not sell yourself short Richard Dawkins... the very fact that the two of us are here is proof

Chapter 104 : Taunt and effect
Seeing what was going on, Richard quickly headed towards a large crate containing Sky Quazer drone parts, so he could hide and wait for whatever came next."Come out Richard Dawkins, I don't really have time to play games with you" said a masculine voice which could be heard at the very end of the warehouse.Respond to this, but he could tell by the man's voice that he was still relatively far away, so in his mind, he still had some time to think up an escape plan."Stop wasting everyone's time, Dawkins, you might think you're hiding, but you're not" the masculine voice said again.Richard didn't respond, and at this point, he actually started to wonder why his assailants were talking so much.He still needed to find a way to navigate around this warehouse from this box he hid behind, that way, perhaps he could find a way out of his current situation.Suddenly, the masculine voice could be heard sighing loudly in the distance."Yo

Chapter 103 : Anticipated Set-up
Following the map closely, with the blueprint carefully tucked away in his pocket, Richard was led to a seemingly abandoned set of warehouses at the outskirts of the city. The warehouses most definitely belonged to Comet, as he could see their logo plastered everywhere, but he wasn't exactly sure what Comet was using them for. He found a set of thick bushes in a corner, where he decided to observe his surroundings from, as he didn't want to be ambushed by any unknown assailants. The region seemed void of life, but was littered to the brim with scores of machine parts, but Richard was too far away to tell what machines these were. Quickly becoming unsatisfied with his position behind the bushes, Richard decided, after maintaining his position for over 30 minutes, and still not noticing any sign of life, that he would move around to Investigate the area. Once he did this, he began observing all the broken
