Mysterious Son-in-law’s Revenge Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen
At the Livingston's residence, James and his father sat across from each other at the home office. "Everything is going well as planned father. You don't have to worry."James said with an assuring smile. "Ahh.... I'm not worried my child. Not at all. I'm simply overwhelmed. Everything is finally coming to fruition."Chris said sipping from the glass of wine before him. "Thank you so much father. I promise not to disappoint you. I will make sure I make up for everything we've lost over the past few months."Chris looked up at his son with pride and hope in his eyes. "Cheers.""Cheers."They clinked their glasses. The classical music that played in the room intensified, hitting the climax. James and his father shut their eyes at the sweet melody as they celebrated.Immediately, the power went out and everywhere blacked out."What's going on?" Chris hissed with a low tone. "I think the power went out"James ran his hamd along his suit jacket in search of his phone. "Exactly what

James stared at his phone and his features darkened. He squeezed the phone in his hand then flung it across the room with a growl. "Bastard! I swear I will kill you, Declan King!"James seethed, his chest rising and falling in rage. What was Declan? A human or beast? He had just received the photos of his best men all beaten up to pulp and in pain. "This is not the end." James braced himself, adjusting his shirt. Declan may have killed his men, but James had more odds against Declan. He reminded himself that Declan was charged with arson and attempted murder and would be thrown behind bars soon. Declan should even be behind bars at the moment if not for the Influence of the Ashers."It's just a matter of time." James assured himself trying to breath. He retired to bed that night with a heavy heart. The next day was the launching of the B11 medicine at the Livingston's pharmaceutical. Dignified business men and women from all over the world were invited and present. "Welcome ladie

"Is there a problem?" Mandy asked, reading the change in Declan's countenance. "I hope not. I have to go now." He gave her a side hug and dashed out. "Wait!" Declan arrived at the hospital shortly. He went into the Williams ward and Saw May seated beside her mother. "Are they alright?" May turned on hearing Declan's voice. Her face immediately broke into a bright smile. "You're here." She got up and walked up to him. "They are still in coma but the doctors think they will wake up soon. They observed some positive changes since the last time you came." "Oh. That's great news." Declan beamed her a smile at her in relief. He was worried something bad might have happened. "I'm sorry I didn't come earlier, had a serious issue to deal it." Declan walked past May as he spoke to take a look at her mom and sister. Their pulse rate has improved, compared to the last time. "I saw." May stated, her gaze falling on her fingers. She was embarrassed by what she was about to say. "Hu

"Following the arrest of the only surviving son of Chris Livingston of Livingston pharmaceutical, the Company losses . The" Mandy punched the off button on the remote and cut off the voice of the presenter. She picked up her wine glass from the table and turned to Declan. "Cheers?" "Cheers" They clinked their glasses together and took a long satisfied sip from their wine. "Ahh... Now this is what victory feels like." "Are you that impressed?" Declan asked with a knowing smile. "It feels so good. That scumbag got what he deserved. How could he do that to innocent people? He should be locked away for the rest of his life." Declan smiled and walked to the window. He was surely impressed by the outcome of the stunt he pulled. Not only was James arrested, their Company may never be able to recover from the loss. But deep down, Declan knew there was more to be done. He must find out the person responsible for the production of the substance Clara and Ashley were drugged with.

The drive back to the Ashers' residence was a quiet one. Declan's focus was on the road like his life depended on it. Mandy would spare quick glances his way at intervals. His expression was stoic, giving nothing about how he felt away. "Are you okay?" Mandy finally broke the silence. "Yeah. Why?" Mandy bit her lower lip, not sure if she should thread in the part of her thoughts. "What happened in there, is that how you've always lived? I mean, I know you all were not on the best of terms but never in my wildest dream did I imagine that it was that bad." Declan's grip tightened on the steering but was loosened, almost as fast as it happened. "I don't know what you mean but trust me it's nothing. She's properly not in her full mindset yet." Mandy opened her mouth to say something but closed it. She blinked, not believing that Declan would defend Clara after her ungratefulness and disregard of his effort. "When are you finalizing the divorce?" The question came as a shock

"Hmm...." Bench stood up and started to walk up and down the room. "I have never heard of him." "It is not surprising. His reputation barely precedes him. Unless you have an encounter, you may never know how much of a trouble he really is." Jordan poured a quick drink for himself and chugged it down his dry throat. "You make him sound tactical yet you say he is a poor useless son-in-law." Bench remarked, truly intrigued. Jordan pushed out a rush of air from his lungs. "Then you should get to know him by yourself and maybe you will understand better."Jordan pressed his molars together as he spoke with fury in his eyes. Bench walked into his study when he got home and immediately disappeared into his secret room. He pressed in some codes into his space and brought out a list of reputable families he knew of. After hearing what Jordan Smith had to say about Declan, Bench only concluded that Declan was not a wretch. No poor man would step on the feet of the great Jordan Smith a

"So what are we going to do now?" Clara's panicked voice trailed. May had just broken the news of their burnt house to her. "We will move into our villa at hilltop for now then I will figure out what next to do." "Nonsense May! Arrant nonsense! You think a roof over my head is my problem? Have you forgotten my aunt left me a mansion before she died?" May pushed out a breath. "Good riddance. At least you have options." Clara made a grunt, her eyes flaring. "You miss the whole point, May. I have assets in that house. My golds, diamonds… all my rare gems. All my luxurious limited collections. How could you tell me they are all gone? No! It's not possible." May pressed her eyes shut. She always knew telling her mom the news would be hard but she never imagined it to be this painful and devastating. "Mom, you should be grateful. Grateful that we made it. Grateful that you didn't die that night and your body burnt in that fire. Grateful that help came when it did and you were able

"What do I do next boss?" Peter asked Bench. "Send him an invitation. I mean Declan King. I want to meet with him as soon as possible." Bench stated with enthusiasm. Peter bowed and walked away. Declan received an email shortly, that a certain Bench Cowper invited him for lunch . "This is interesting." He said, reading the mail from the top of his dark shades. He had heard a whiff about Bench and his multi million dollars real estate company but had never really paid attention. He didn't need to bother his mind with the curiosity of what the invitation was about for he already had a clue. For all Declan knew, Bench was very much acquainted with the Livingstons. "Let's go get the party started" Declan downed the rest of the whiskey and got up. Straightening his blazers, he picked up his key and walked off. "Please come in." Bench stood to welcome Declan. They were at the lounge of one Bench's hotel in the city." "Uhm... Bench Cowper?" "Oh yes. It's a pleasure to final

Declan walked down the stairs cleaning his eyes as he descended with a clear smile on his face. Two days had passed since he had a blood fest against Mandy and the men that she had brought. He walked into the dining room and grabbed the coffee pot for the machine and poured himself a cup. “Hmm, a cup of coffee first thing in the morning… who are you and what have you done with my Kazuka?” Declan turned to see his mother seated at the table with a plate of toasts and fruits before her. “Good morning mother.” Declan said, walking up to her. He kissed her on the cheek before taking a seat beside her. “Someone woke up on the right side of the bed today.” Elizabeth said with a smile. “What's making my boy all cheery in the morning?” “Nothing… I was just thinking of my plans for the day.” Declan replied, taking a sip from the cup in his hand. “Must be a very interesting day you have planned out for yourself if this is the kind of expression you have first thing in the morning.” “I

May watched as Mandy glared at Declan with eyes full of hate while he smirked at her while looking at the men that had arrived with her. “Please tell me that you have more people coming.” Declan said with a smile. “Even the people you sent to kidnap May were more than this.” As if in response, a van pulled up behind Declan's car and over a dozen men climbed out of it with clubs and steel pipes in their grasp, with some of them holding daggers and short knives. “Now this is looking promising.” Declan said, licking his lips in anticipation. May climbed out of the car walking towards Declan with her hands slightly raised. “Mandy, you don't need to do this.” She said softly. “You can just tell your men to leave and we can all just forget that something like this ever happened.” “Shut up!” Mandy snapped, turning her glare to May who shuddered under the killing intent that Mandy poured out. “This is all his fault. My grandfather is dead and it's all his fault.” She yelled in pain

In the evening of that day, Declan had gone to pick up May for their date. “You know you don't need to do this Declan, I also have a car.” May said walking up to a black car parked a few feet away from her with Declan leaning against it. “That would be absurd. Imagine asking someone out on a date and then deciding to let the person drive there.”Declan said, shaking his head, opening the door for her to get in. “That's no different than asking the person to meet up with you for a business lunch.” “It's the thought behind it that matters Declan… God, are all the men of the King family stubborn?” May said with a sigh while Declan chuckled in response driving away. “so, what about Mandy? Any news about her after your meeting today?” “Well, I got reports that she was approached by a lady and was taken to a station for questioning. The company was given a trial in a few days and from there everything will play out.” Declan shrugged. “Not if you cause the company to fold.” May said

Mandy kept her gaze fixed on the door leading to the room where Declan was having his interview with Celeste. The door opened and Declan walked out with a calm look on his face. Mandy stood and walked towards him. “Declan!” She yelled before grabbing his collar to the surprise of everyone present. “Mandy Asher… quite a surprise for me to see you here… don't you think?” Declan said with a soft smile. “You are happy, aren't you? You have finally ruined my family and gotten your revenge.” She said, gripping his shirt tighter. “Your questions are like asking a poor man who just win the lottery if he is happy winning a huge amount of money.” Declan said gripping her hand. “Of course I am happy.” He wrenches her hands off his clothes and straightened his shirt. “Miss Asher I would love it if you don't come onto me like that again.” Declan added and made to walk away but she blocked him. “Why don't you finish what you started? You have already killed my grandfather; adding me to th

May's eyes widened in shock. She looked at the man who looked nothing above his early thirties before shaking her head in disbelief. “So you are old? A hundred?” She asked, still in doubt. “Can we not put a number on it? Surprised that I am around your grandpa’s age?” Declan asked with an amused look. “Shocked? Declan, you don't look a day above thirty five.” She replied before reaching for her glass of wine. “Well, I suppose it was one of the reasons families decided to go against us. Certain families after discovering our secret became afraid. I suppose that was the reason the Deckers family decided to launch Project K-11. They wanted to make soldiers that could match our prowess which as you should know ended in failure while claiming the lives of many people. Four families… all jealous of the power we had decided to band against us and send us out of the city that we had built as a home for ourselves. They had even nailed the blame of Project K-11 on our family and after som

Declan reached for his ringing phone and his cold face softened a little. He raised the phone to his ear and answered the call. “Hello May.” “Hey Declan, em… sorry to disturb you but I just saw the news and decided to call you. I never had the chance to tell you thank you for everything.” Declan smiled at the nervousness in May's voice. “No problem. It was my pleasure.” He replied. Any other thing?” “Are you busy?” She asked. “Right now? No, not at all. Is there any problem?” “Not right now. Will you be free tonight? I was thinking that maybe we should meet up and discuss things over.” May said, her voice beginning to shake slightly. “I can make time. What do you want to talk about?” He asked with a smirk. “Nothing ser-. I will let you know when we meet.” May said. “Alright then… text me the time and I will come pick you up.” Declan said, his face harboring a grin that threatened to tear past his face. “Alright. It's a date then.” Mandy said and ended the call. Declan s

‘Reporting the death of the patriarch of the Asher family, Asher Keaton was reported dead having passed away yesterday in the early hours of the afternoon.’ Declan looked at the news on the television before turning to the phone in his hand. He had over a dozen missed calls from Mandy which he suspected was for him to chew him out. He turned to the maid and pointed at the wine shelf before turning back to the news. ‘News reaching the media now is pointing towards the Asher industries about another of their multiple evil deeds against the city. A construction scandal done towards a project of building a city facility which was supposedly done with fake materials.’ ‘Experts are being brought in to investigate the nature of the materials used to build the facility.’ ‘The Asher industries are also said to be on the very brink of bankruptcy with their stocks fallen before the twenty-five percent mark.’ “This is actually a very good cause for one to celebrate.” Declan said, reaching fo

Mandy looked around the office with a heavy sigh before going back to the work she was handling on her laptop. It has been a week since May had announced her innocence and sued the Asher to court. The trial had gone against them, making them pay over a hundred and fifty million in compensation at the demand of the Williams. After that, bits and bits of the company's confidential data happened to find their way into the social media giving them a black name among the public. The company stocks had fallen by over forty seven percent and it wasn't rising back, leaving the company a few steps away from folding due to bankruptcy. Her attention is drawn away when the door of her office opens letting Asher in. “Another one has been released.” He said with a bitter smile on his face. “This is getting worse than I expected.” Mandy groaned and slumped back against her chair in despair. She blamed everything on Declan… it was all his fault all for a pointless revenge due to an old injury

Mandy sipped from the glass in her hand, her gaze fixed on the television before her. On the table before her, some files laid open with a pad at the edge of the table. ‘An announcement has been scheduled this afternoon for the public residents of the city. The host of the announcement is non either than May Williams -.’ “Pfft!.” Mandy spilled out a mouthful of wine onto the files in front of her. She gazed at the screen in shock… May was alive meaning that Declan must have either saved her or the men weren't able to get to her in time. Either way, her plan had been flunked. She exhaled and gripped the glass in her hand till it shattered spilling over the floor. She stood up from the couch and walked out. At the other side of the city, May looked around and exhaled softly. She was in the Williams industries and was surrounded by different reporters that she had invited for an announcement. She turned towards a corner of the hall where a figure dressed in black with its face
