Mysterious Son-in-law’s Revenge Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty
Declan froze holding the box torn between the choice of whether to open the box now or wait till his mother was awake. He ran a hand through his hair keeping the box on the table before climbing into his bed. If his family were sending him packages, it only meant one thing… they are running out of patience. Taking a deep breathe, Declan closed his eyes and drifted asleep. “You are already awake?” Elizabeth asked as Declan walked downstairs. “Good morning mother.” Declan said, rubbing his eyes. “Go to the dining room, I will soon be done making breakfast.” “Mother we have people who can take care of that. Shouldn't you be resting?” “If I want to make breakfast for my son, I can and I will. Now go to the dining and…” Elizabeth’s voice drifted away when her gaze landed on a box in Declan's arms bearing a crest that she knew too well. “When did that come in?” She asked not taking her gaze off the package. “Last night. I saw it when I returned. Was about to discuss it with yo

At Declan’s mansion, he got out of the shower to his phone ringing in the bedside. Declan reached for his ringing phone and answered it. “Any news?” He asked coldly. “Yes. The target is at a renowned restaurant with Miss May. I believe they are having a lunch date.” “Good. Keep watching them and notify me on any changes. I am on my way.” Declaned ended the call and grabbed his car keys from the table before walking to his mothet’s room. “Mother, I am on my way out.” He said knocking softly on the door. “Try to get some rest okay?” “Took you long enough. I thought you were going to leave immediately after breakfast?” His mother answered from inside the room. “Take care. I will see you when I get back.” Declan said ignoring the question he was asked as he walked out of the room. ~ May watched the young man seated right before her as he ate his dessert leaving little bits of the ice cream on his face. “What is it?” Timo asked, noticing May’s fixed gaze on his face. “Oh, you

Declan sat in his car and watched Timo and May through the glass of restaurant. He reached into his pocket and grabbed his phone before dialing a number. *Beep* “Hello?!” “Have you found anything else on Timothy and his girlfriend?” “No, not really.” Tye replied and audibly swallowed. “I am still trying though but it seems that someone is keeping things about them under wraps, I keep meeting dead ends.” “Hmm, do what you can… but get me what I need to know about that man and get it fast “ “Yes sir.” *Beep* Declan started his car and drove off out of the restaurant. May watched Timo as she ate; no matter how she tried, she couldn't forget the smile he had on his face while he watched Declan. “Are you sure something isn't on my face again? You keep staring.” Timo asked with a smile reaching for a napkin. “No, not really. I guess I thought it wouldn't hurt to look at a face as fine as yours.” May replied with a small smile that could flutter the coldest of hearts. “Flatte

Now that they are back, we do not know their motive for being back here nor do we know if the city should be weary of them due to unforeseen dangers from their family.’ ‘An interview will be scheduled for the city hero, Declan Kings to come forth and tell us whatever it is that happens to be his family motive for being back here… All that remains is whether the prodigal son will heed our call or not.’ Grandpa Asher looked at the screen before exhaling loudly. “I knew that

Declan looked at the message he had just received with a smile before his eyes drifted to the clock beside him. ‘06:38am’ He climbed out bed dropping his phone on the table before walking into his bathroom. *Ring! Ring!! Ring!!!* Declan walked out wearing a bathrobe towards the bedside table grabbing his phone before answering the call. “Sir, I hope you have received the list? Just calling to confirm.” “Yes, I have. Nice job.” Declan replied. “Though I don't recognize one of the names in the list… you said the Kingston Family, who are they?” “Not sure myself sir. It was one of the names I found out. I was actually hoping that you would have recognized it. If you want, I can look into it for you.” “No need. I will have Tye look into it himself. He's faster at this type of thing.” Declan said, sitting down on the bed. “You, on the other hand, will have to look for something else for me.” “I am all ears sir.” “A man by the name of Dr. Timothy Axeland. Find for me everything you

“The Ashers?” Declan's eyes narrowed into slits as he looked upon his mother. “You are joking right?” “I wish. Now imagine my surprise when I found out that my son happens to be the one who saved the very same man that had ordered my elimination.” Elizabeth said with a sad smile on her face as she watched her son’s face. She could see his turbulent emotions raging inside. “This is surprising.” Declan said with a heavy sigh. “To think something like that will come back to bite me… saving the man who tried to kill my mother… How funny.” He added with a snicker. Declan could feel his rage building up… not against Mandy or her grandfather but against himself… for being the bigger fool. “Son, I can only imagine what you are thinking now but-.” “No need. Since the Ashers happen to be one of the unfortunate families that had gone against ours, they can only show their impending retribution.” Declan balled his fist tightly. ‘I will teach that old ma not to mess with

“Manipulate you?” Declan looked at Mandy in shock before falling back into the seat he had stood up from. “What is that supposed to mean?” “Don't lie to me. You and I both know that my family was involved in getting your family out of the town. Did you become my friend to manipulate me?!” Mandy asked, almost yelling. Declan shook his head as he watched a tear slide down Mandy's cheek. “So you are aware that your family framed my family… chasing us out of the town?” “What are you talking about? We didn't do anything but remove a threat from the city. Answer my question and stop twisting this against us.” “And here I was thinking that you would be willing to hear the whole story before picking sides.” Declan said pain flashing through his eyes. He stood back up and turned away from Mandy. “Believe what you want to believe, but I have already seen where you stand.” “So I am right… Everything was a lie.” “If I became your friend to manipulate you, your grandfather wouldn't

Mandy looked at the old man in front of her with widened eyes. “What's with the look? If we denounce him in front of the public, it might as well remove every form of suspicion from our family.” Asher said with a shrug. “And I am guessing that you would want me to make the announcement?” “Well, you are the one that he is mostly seen with… who else to take the shot?” Grandpa Asher fired back and Mandy nodded with a grim look on her face. “If you will excuse me grandpa, I think I need some time alone.” Mandy said walking out of the living room. *** Declan sat in his car, leaning against the chair. A shrill ringing tone cut through the air and he grudgingly reached for his phone. *Beep* “Hello… you better have good news for me Tye.” “And indeed I do. I found a potential lead to Kingston. There is a guy that promised information for the right sum and already agreed to meet him at a cafe with enough money to get him spilling.” “And you are sure that the guy is a real deal?”

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
