“Don’t you say that your son-in-law was capable? Let him get you out of here. Mother, let’s go,” John said and left with Jeanette. Nicolas returned to the stage without even sparing a glance at Edina.Emma and the other women who had said horrible things about John all became ashamed. They turned around and blamed Edina for pledging what she could not keep. Kevin was too ashamed to talk. How did John know this man? He had tried for many years to get closer to him, yet all his efforts had failed and now a foolish man like John was favored by him even when he couldn’t show gratitude, Nicolas was still willing to do more. Kevin wished he had never treated John with contempt in the past.The news of Kevin’s humiliation gets into his father’s ear. He came later in the night when everyone had left and paid for Edina’s pledge. However, Kevin was restricted from having any access to the family’s account. He must come to his father before he could get any money. He can't spend a single cent wi
John drove into the Mega gas station the next morning to refill his fuel tank. Luckily, the place was empty. Only two people were in the queue waiting for their turn. The elderly man in front of the pump attendant got his tank filled and drove out. As soon as the lady in front wanted to move her car closer, a young man drove in, blocking the lady from moving to the nearest pump. The lady got angry and came down from her car.“What is wrong with you? Why block me from refilling my car?” The Lady, Rosalie, the first daughter of Xavier of the Rowan family, shouted as soon as she walked out of her car.“Move your car out of my way and move to the next pump,” she yelled.The wealthy young man smirked and came down from his vehicle. He folded his arms and rested his back on his car.“Did you say to refill your car? Which car? I hope you are not referring to this outdated box in front of me. By the way, who told you that you could refill your fuel tank while I wait in the queue for you? Do
Colton smiled. Rosalie knew what he could do. So he said.“What if I refuse? Are you going to insult me like you did before? Or are you going to send this cheap man to deal with me?” He said and looked at John, who was watching the whole thing with interest. It amused him how people like Colton bully others just because they are privileged. He thought of teaching him a lesson.“How can I deal with a wealthy man like you, Colton? I don’t wish for my death, but I still think that you have no penny in your pocket because if you do, you would have paid for any car that drove into this place and they will sing your praises instead of intimidating this innocent girl,” John said. Colton looked around the fuel station and saw only five people who wanted to fill their tank.“Are you now saying that I could not pay for every car that came here? Do you know who I am? I will not only fuel their cars but also pay for yours as well,” he boasted.“If you do that, then I will not only respect you but
Colton's' allowance which could only fuel two cars was what he expected to use until the end of the month when his next allowance would be paid.He has promised to stay out of trouble for the remaining part of the year, but two months after his promise, he found himself in this mess. His father and the entire Whitney family will not accept that. Colton knew how hard his mother fought to get him accepted into the Whitney family, and now all her efforts were going to be tossed into the trash can.After the humiliation, Colton’s father was called to pay the fuel bill. The old man could not refuse because the gas station belonged to Anderson and he wouldn’t want to have any problem with Anderson.“From now on, you are no longer my son and I won’t be responsible for the consequences of your irresponsibilities. Don’t you ever step foot in Whitney’s family house ever again?” Burton Whitney Colton’s father announced immediately after he finished making the payment. He took Colton’s car key an
Xavier thought of paying for the tea so that he would repay John for saving Rosalie. That way, he would make him stay far away from his daughter.“How much does the tea cost? I will pay for it. John did a great favor for my family, and I wish to repay him,” Xavier said.“in that case, you will pay forty thousand dollars for the tea,” Chang Fu said.“It’s settled then. Give him the tea,” Xavier said and handed the money to Chang Fu. He counted the money and nodded his head when he finished counting. He brought out a small tea bag that was filled with black powders and gave them to John. “Dissolve all the contents in warm water and drink it on an empty stomach,” he said John took the black tea and looked at the content, then smelled it. Instantly, he knew that the tea was not potent. He wished to make Xavier and his daughter see how fake the man was.“Thank you, doctor Chang Fu, for this tea. Can you please do fast and heal Grandpa? His illness is serious. Since a drop of your medicin
“I am not joking. Send me your account details, but if you cannot save him, you will return the money in double,” John warned. Chang Fu knew John couldn’t even afford five-dollar bills, not to mention millions, and so he wanted to disgrace him.“Okay, here are my account details,” Chang Fu said. He wrote it down on a piece of paper and gave John the paper. John took it and called Nicolas on the phone.“Please, sir, I need your help. Can you please send one of your servants to Rowan’s mansion? It’s urgent. I want you to lend me some money,” John said over the phone.Nicolas instantly understood what was going on. His boss, John, wanted to play his disguise trick again and so he said.“Whatever amount you want will be delivered into your account, or do you wish for my boys to come with the cash?”“Thank you, sir. No need to send your boys over with the cash. I will just send the account details if that will be okay with you,” John said.“Send the details then,” Nicolas said, and John e
John gently lay on the dead man. The gleaming light transmitted from his body to Bennett’s corpse and gradually faded out of the room. Matthew was stunned when he saw John. Is John the Orthodox doctor who came to cure his sick grandfather? He thought and yanked John out of his grandfather’s body.“What did you do to him, and what are you doing here?” He asked.John turned back and saw Matthew, his ex-colleague at Weam Bank. He was surprised to see Matthew in Bennett’s room.“What are you doing here, dirty bag? Who brought you into the Rowan family house?” Matthew asked.“Matthew, please stop this. He is trying to help us. He wanted to revive Grandpa,” Rosalie said.Matthew laughed so hard that tears started coming out of his eyes. “Who is reviving Grandpa? John? How could you believe this shit of a man? He was nothing but a jobless ex-banker who survived by living with his laws and did nothing in the house except washing his wife’s undies every day,” Matthew said.“Is that so, Matth
Yes, Grandpa, Matthew promised to bow for me and lick my shoes if I cured your illness,"Ellis and Annette smiled because they knew what their Grandfather could do. Just like they thought, the old man hit his walking stick hard at Matthew's head and said. "Bow down and lick his shoes"Matthew quickly got on his knees and bowed before John, everyone in the room including Xavier and Dominic couldn't hold their laugh, as he licked the dirty shoes like a dog. Feeling satisfied, John smiled the moment his shoes were licked clean by Matthew who was sulking. Matthew vowed to deal with John for humiliating him before his entire family and left the house in anger. John looked around and saw Ellis. For some reason, he felt interested in the boy."Could you please, bring down Chang Fu, I tied him up in your Grandfather's room" Ellis was glad that John chose to send him on an errand if he won his affection, then he would be able to help him teach his brother Matthew one or two lessons in the f
