Mysterious Son-in-law’s Revenge Chapter Two Hundred and Fourteen
The drive back to Declan's home was a quiet one. When they arrived, he showed his mom to her room and turned to leave. "We can't achieve anything if we are this way." Elizabeth's voice echoed, bringing Declan to a halt. "You should have given me more time, mother." "And time is what we don't have now. We must act fast because the family is beginning to worry." Elizabeth said and Declan turned to face her with a narrowed gaze. "You sound nothing like someone who had been out of this reality for years. Is there something I need to know?" Declan asked, his gaze narrowing even further in suspicion. His family were very powerful and the last thing he would do was underestimate them. Elizabeth moved from where she stood to across the room to access a sculpture standing there. "Get the chef to prepare me a meal, I'm famished." She said with dismissal, completely ignoring what Declan had said. Outside his mom's room, Declan was storming down the stairs when his phone beeped in hi

Mandy slumped into the couch in her living room. She was so devastated and found it difficult to contain her emotions. She heard footsteps approaching and she quickly sprang up on her feet. Her grandpa and Josh entered and they were about to walk out through the front door. "Where are you going grandpa?" "To show him around. He will take over the project going forward." Grandpa Asher said and Mandy's face paled. "What project do you mean?" She asked shakily and grandpa Asher glanced at her with side eyes. "The one you have ongoing. You're off it till further notice." "No way." Mandy, gasped. It was as though something gonged in her head and for a moment, she felt light headed. "You can't—do that. I mean, that is my project. If you really want the Williams off it, then that's fine by me." Mandy said, moving to stand in front of her grandfather. "This has nothing to do with the Williams anymore. Consider it your punishment for bringing in a riffraff into my home to insult m

Mandy stood still, completely washed with embarrassment. She glanced around at the guards and some maids staring and she wished she could just disappear. "Fine!" She gritted, hands fisted by her side as she walked away. "Who is that girl?" Elizabeth asked, marching back into the living room. "Oh you have really been in a coma after all." Declan mumbled and his mom cocked her head to the side "What did you just say?" "She's not important mom, you should be getting more rest." Declan said, turning to her. He held her mom's gaze for a moment before she finally looked away without saying a word. "I'm stepping out now and will be back shortly." Declan said, picking up his car keys. Elizabeth wanted to protest but Declan was already out of the front door before she could find her words. Declan drove straight to the Williams residence and just at the entrance of their home, he met May. "What are you doing here?" May asked, immediately coming to a halt. She had a hostile look on

"Boom!" The explosion went off again and they all went flat on the ground with their belly. Fear and panic gripped most of them and they clustered together, their bodies gumming to each other in fright. Declan glanced around and his eyes fell in the thick smoke that emanated from a part of the house. "I will be right back," Declan said and went away. Mandy and everyone else remained on the ground and were too scared to make a move. Just shortly after Declan went away, he came back with a man covered in black overalls. "Please let me go." The young man yelled but Declan kicked him hard on the belly instead, sending him 6ft high in the air before the man dumped on the floor. Everyone in the Asher's household gasped, they had not seen that man before in his life. "Who is he?" Mandy managed to ask shortly after and Declan turned to her. "I saw him at the wall carrying some explosives" "What?" Everyone gasped at once at What Declan's said. Mandy exchanged glances with her chie

He tried redialing May's line so many times but she was not picking up. He had also tried to find her through her GPS but it seemed her location was turned off.Declan threw his phone to his side and tightened his grip on his steering. He increased his gear and sped off on the road of the city.He finally got to the Willis residence. He climbed down from his car and raced to the front door. Clara stepped out that same moment and was shocked to see Declan."What are you doing here?"She asked with a squeezed forehead. She looked behind Declan and he was alone. "Where's May?"Declan asked, his look serious."Her whereabouts are none of your business. Please leave right now,"Clara spat and tried to close the door but the door hung mid way. Her glare deepened as she stared down at Declan's leg that served as the wedge."Have you gone out of your mind?!"She growled furiously, shooting him an angry look."Listen to me Clara, I didn't come here for this. May might be in danger as we spe

"Well, the ring was still from him. But more like a gift."May's voice was low this time as she spoke. She returned to the living room to pick up the ring."Drop it.”Clara snapped and May flinched."Why?""Because no one gives out a diamond engagement ring as a gift."There was silence in the room after Clara's words. "So what are you trying to say mom?"May asked , turning to her mom fully. Clara did not speak immediately but began to pace the floor of the room."I feel uneasy and for some weird reason I think Declan might be right.""You can't be serious right now, mom."May said with a tone of disappointment."Well, I am serious." "Of all persons to believe, it’s Declan King, you? When did you get here?"May asked, folding her arms across her chest."Look, about that young man, regardless of how much I hate his guts, I must admit that he is never wrong with things like this. You needed to see how he barged in here looking for you when he thought you were in danger.""But why w

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 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
