Mysterious Son-in-law’s Revenge Chapter Two Hundred and Forty-Four
A white car pulled up in front of the skyscraper that belonged to Zita’s family and the men in suits standing in front of the building rushed towards the car. The door opened and Zita climbed out of the car before walking towards the door as a guard climbed into the car driving it off. Zita made her way into the company while nodding to greetings that made their way towards her ears. She got into her private elevator and exhaled. The elevator door opened and she walked out towards her office. “Miss Evans!” A call made her stop her tracks. She turned to see her secretary running up to her. “Sorry for disturbing you… but someone came to see you and is waiting in the conference room.” “Who is it?” Zita asked annoyance forming all over her face. “Your father's personal secretary. She said that she had a message from your father and some instructions meant for you and your ears alone.” The secretary replied. “Thank you very much.” Zita said with a smile before walking off towards

Declan sipped on the glass of red wine in his hand while going through a pad in his grasp while leaning back on a couch in the living room. His attention is drawn towards his vibrating phone on the table in front of him. He reached forward and grabbed it before breaking into a smile. *Beep* “Hello Serene.” “Hello boss. Good day.” A soft voice floated into his ears. “Good day to you too. I suppose you have good news for me?” “Hopefully so. I completed my infiltration into the Evans company’s secrets today and got everything I am sure you will love to hear.” Declan’s smile widened at the voice that was brimming with confidence. “Oh… well then, I am listening.” “I managed to find out the various names of the senators that were supposedly put into positions of power with the Evans family influence. They total up to six in really high positions and towards nine in positions that can be overlooked.” “Also, the Evans family happened to have a project that they had launched under a fa

Timothy turned to his ringing phone, grumbling incoherent words as he reached for it. He looked at the phone and broke into a warm smile before answering the call. “Hello Z, are you coming over tonight?” He asked, his face beaming. “I could really do with you over here right now.” “Tim, I am at the station.” Timothy's expression froze when he heard Zendaya's panicking voice over the phone. “The station?! What happened?” He asked, rising from the couch. “I was leaving the company this evening when I was approached by two FBI agents. They took me in for ‘questioning’.” Zita’s voice was quivering in fright. “I think they went to get the rest of my family.” “Okay, just wait for me… I am on my way and don't tell them anything.” Timothy said running out of the house. At the station, Zita raised her head at the call of her name to see Timothy running towards her with a worried expression on his face. She stood up and envelopes him in a hug before breaking into sobs. “Hey, hey, it's

‘Morning news reporting the Evans industries are being sued by the government for several allegations against them. The company is accused of several cases of embezzlement done with the aid of several senators who had been helped into positions of power by the Evans family.’ ‘The Evans are also accused of a construction fraud that had ruined the business of over a thousand entrepreneurs while making tens of thousands homeless. Investigation are being conducted against six senators in collaboration with the Evans family… with Senators Mark Ritchie and Vadim Glade already behind bars and awaiting trial alongside the members of the the Evans family and the higher ups of the Evans industries.’ “A nice way to start the morning… don't you think mother?” Declan asked as he muted the television. Elizabeth and he were seated in the living room each with a glass of wine in their hand. “I couldn't agree more.” Elizabeth said with a small smile on her face. “Let's have a toast…” She added

“I am truly sorry Timo. I am sure that you are hurting because of what Declan must have done but my answer is no.” Mandy said with a stern look. Timothy looked at her while fisting his hands in anger. “You don't mean—” “But I do. May Williams may be a pawn but she remains a leverage for my family. You were the person that gave her up to my family for protection and that is the best that I will be giving you but I won't offer you May Williams for you to use in a game that will endanger her.” Mandy said with firm resolve. “You have a couple of days before Declan would be able to produce whatever information about your family that he can and in whatever method he would be able to use. The only thing you can do is protect your family secrets closely and increase your guard.” “You don't understand… Perhaps you never will. But the man that you know as Declan King is the calm man that is now showing a side that we haven't seen before.” Timothy said, shaking his head. “You would be surpris

Declan walked out of the bathroom in a bathrobe while drying his hair with a towel. He walked up to his bedside table and grabbed a remote which he used to switch on the television in the room. ‘News of the Asher family and the Williams-Asher collaboration re-sueing Miss May Williams to court with allegations against her accusing her of wanting to monopolize the one going by the cooperation.’ ‘Evidence has been brought forth including a voice record of her statement and video footage. There are also multiple witness who are testifying against May Williams while claiming that she had tried to pull them away from the Asher industries and into the Williams industries.’ ‘Investigation is ongoing and…’ Declan dropped the remote and reached for his phone on the bed dialing May’s number. “Hello Declan.” “What the hell happened?! Have you seen the news?” He asked a tinge of anger laced in his voice. “Apparently my role has changed from a pawn to that of a rook.” May’s sarcastic voice

May exhaled and clicked on a button that shut all the doors of the car. She looked at the one who had just spoken out at her and tried to regulate her breathing. “Didn't she hear what I just said?” The masked man spoke again. “Perhaps the car is soundproof?” One of the goons muttered. “Or she needs a bit of incentive.” May watched as the masked man pulled out a gun and pointed the tip at her. Her breath hitched before he pointed it up and released two shots into the air. May opened the door and walked out of the car with her hands up. “What is this all about?” She asked softly. “Darling… that is none of our business.” The masked man pocketed his gun and walked up to her gripping her arm tightly. “All you need to know is that you won't be able to escape… especially from more than two dozen men.” He smiled revealing a set of fake gold teeth and yellowed teeth. May turned her face away from his breath in disgust. The man began to drag her towards the van in front of her while

Timothy raised his head looking around drowsily. He could hear screams from outside and occasional gunshots but he was too dizzy to care. He sat up from the bed and looked towards the door where he heard heavy pounding threatening to bring it down. “Who the hell is it?!” He cried out in frustration before rising to his feet. He had rushed to his family home today after seeing something from the news and now he can't even sleep in peace. Timothy shuffled his feet to the door and opened it to see four bodyguards looking at him with traces of fear on their face. “Sir. Sorry for waking you up but we have to get you out of here. The mansion is under attack.” A guard said, grabbing his wrist which Timothy wrenched out of his grasp. “And what the hell is that supposed to mean?” Timothy frowned, rubbing his eyes. He looked past the guards and could clearly hear the screams and gunshot from outside. “And what the hell is happening outside? Where is my family?” “They are fine and ha

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
