Richard Dawkins's P.O.V“Damn I hate the rain, did it have to rain today of all days” I thought as I walked down the streets of the Reville outer city.Luckily, I had my yellow raincoat ready for this exact moment.The colours were bright, you'd think that a guy like me, who absolutely hated standing out, would have a problem wearing one.But there was a reason I always had one on, they were cheap, and most importantly, they were common.Why would a guy like me, prefer a cheap and common raincoat you might be asking, well, the answer is quite simple.When you're in my line of work, you run into a lot of annoying and unsavoury characters, such as criminals and gang members.Most of them aren't particularly wealthy by any means, so you can always spot them wearing cheap yellow raincoats, whenever the drops are falling down particularly hard.So they tend not to notice or to pay any attention to me, the other poor fella who just happens to also be wearing a cheap raincoat.Helps me blend
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 37 : An alarming report
Dean awoke from this slumber at around 9:15am, the reason he woke up so late, was because he was up throughout the previous night, looking through the Comet reports sent to him by Carlos.He had examined these documents thoroughly, and while he didn't see any problems on the surface, he still felt that something was missing.However, he had finally dismissed the thought the previous night, summing it up to his extreme paranoia and lack of the ability to trust people.*Knock* *Knock* Were the next sounds Dean heard on his door.“Who is it?” he asked.The door slowly, and quietly opened halfway, and soon, Dean could see Mia's head, peering into his room from behind the door.“Timmy, it's me Mia”Dean sighed and smiled after he saw Mia, the look of worry in her eyes told him exactly why she was there.“Hey Mia, good morning” responded Dean.Mia looked at Dean with an anxious expression on her face.“Is everything okay Timmy?, you don't look so good” she said.Dean shook his head, and wa
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 38 : Growing suspicions
Dean tossed the documents he was just reading on the table, while he remained silent and in very deep thought.Carlos, seeing that his boss was thinking really hard, had prevented himself from speaking the entire time, but now… several minutes later, he felt he had to offer some suggestions.Who knows, maybe he'd finally be able to suggest something to his boss, that he (his boss) hadn't thought of yet.“You know, Boss, this doesn't have to be the worst thing ever” Carlos finally said.Dean raised one eyebrow and turned to look at Carlos, “meaning?” he asked.“Meaning that there might be ways we could turn this entire thing to our advantage” said Carlos.Dean narrowed his focus even more on Carlos, “alright, I'm listening” he said.“Ever since the Philips family went bankrupt, they were forced to basically sell everything they had to pay off what they owed” began Carlos.“But that's the thing, everyone one knows that a wealthy family like them, probably… no definitely have billions of
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 39 : An unfortunate deal
Eric took deep breaths, as beads of sweat slowly trickled down his forehead.Christopher Newton had gone silent once he asked for his help, but he was too nervous to speak up.Eric cursed himself for becoming so weak and timid.He was Eric Phillips, one of the four heavenly kings of Reville, he shouldn't be nervous when speaking to a man he watched grow up.With this thought, Eric finally gathered up the will to speak again, but before he could talk, Christopher finally responded.“I'm sorry, what did you just say?, I'm not sure I heard you properly”“I said I need your help Christopher, I was very clear on that” replied Eric.“And why exactly do you need my help?” asked Christopher.“Please Christopher, let's not play these games, you know why… everyone knows why”“So you're trying to tell me that of all the people you could have called for help, you chose me to help you”“If it makes you feel better Christopher, you weren't my first choice, but everyone else I have called has turned
My Son-In-Law Is Secretly A Crime Lord Chapter 40 : The High stakes party
The Phillips fund-raiser party, was indeed one of the largest the city had ever seen.Celebrities from across the country and the world, came to this party officially to raise funds and show support to the Phillips family in their time of need.But in truth, everyone was actually here to get their hands of some of the family's secret assets.The party was held at the Phillips family residence, a residence that the family were lucky enough not to lose during their bankruptcy proceedings, as it wasn't registered in their name, but in the name of an obscure third party.Outside the Phillips family mansion stood two men, named Marcus Azna, and Jonathan Willow, respectively.Both men lounged in a corner of the compound, observing their surroundings.The Phillips family residence at this time, was stocked to the brim with cars, and the security personnel of some of the biggest, and most influential figures in not just Reville, but in the entire nation of Orzan, and even the world.Marcus loo

“DEAN, STOP!” yelled Jonathan under his breath, as silently as he could. However, Marcus did not listen, and continued moving towards Lucas Warrington.Soon, Marcus had got close enough to the man, that a few of his guards noticed him and turned to look at him.Once Jonathan saw this, he knew he had to de-escalate the situation, to ensure that Marcus didn't ruin everything they had planned for the night, so he decided to stop him.“Boss, what are you doing… now is not the time for this” said Jonathan as he firmly grabbed Marcus's shoulder to prevent him from moving further.But Marcus's bloodlust had not subsided, so he grabbed the hand that Jonathan had placed in his shoulder, and was about to forcefully remove it… but then he heard Jonathan's next words.“Don't do this Dean, you're a better man than this… you've worked too hard, and come too far to let it all end this way because you lacked self-control… believe me Dean, you don't want to this, this is not the legacy you want to lea

“Announcing the arrival of the incredible, innovative, and wonderful Michael Newton, head of the Newton family” announced the MC, cheerfully.An explosion of applause erupted throughout the entire hall, with many guests even rising from their seats to give Christopher Newton, and the members of the family in attendance alongside him, a befitting applause.“HA HA, did you hear those titles, boss?” asked Carlos.“Incredible, innovative, wonderful" added Carlos in a mocking tone.“Oh I heard it loud and clear, Carlos” replied Dean.“I guess getting your ego stroked by people you consider beneath you, is another reason why the elites attend an event like this” remarked Dean, unimpressed by the absurdity of the transpiring events.Dean looked at Christopher Newton intently, the man didn't really have much in the way of a security force, unlike Lucas Warrington.This meant that he intended to interact with a lot of people at the party.This was the perfect chance for Dean to advance his pla

“I see you finally decided to get up from your seat and actually talk to one of your guests” said Lucas.“But I don't blame you, since you basically funded this entire thing with his money, of course you'd want to thank him”“That's enough Lucas, I know you don't like Eric, but you're stepping out of line” said Christopher.“Out of line?” queried Lucas, quite annoyed, “There is no line when it comes to the Phillips family any more, Christopher”“What the hell are you blabbing about Lucas?, You and entire Warrington family are the weakest of the four heavenly kings, I could…”“You can't do anything Eric, not any more, and that's because you are no longer one of us, your family is no longer part of the four heavenly kings of Reville" explained Lucas Warrington.Eric was stunned for several moments after hearing this, he refused to believe that such a thing could happen to him and his family.Turning his head slowly to Christopher Newton, he asked, “CHRISTOPHER, IS IT TRUE, WHAT LUCAS JU

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
