Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 131: PURCHASE FOR $10 MILLION.
“Miles, I had no idea…..” Lucas was struggling to say his words coherently. He was just too stunned at what he had just found out.Miles looked at Lucas with an ominous smile. “Of course, you had no idea. Because I simply kept it a secret.” He then turned to resume his work. For minutes, the office was quiet as Miles focused on his work on his laptop. A confused Lucas tried to call Miles’s attention but Eden quickly stopped him from making any attempt. Therefore, Lucas was made to remain on his knees while Miles was busy.It took about fifteen minutes before Miles finally brought his attention back to the kneeling man. “Alright, Lucas, you can speak now. What exactly were you looking for my wife for?”“It’s you I was looking for,” Lucas spoke with wide eyes. “I heard that you were no longer an employee here as you had lost your gatekeeping job. Also, I've never visited your house before so I didn’t know how to locate you. I would have asked Lesley or Miss Blaine for direction but as
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 132: THE CLASS REUNION.
Lucas was quiet for a while. “Mr. Miles, I’m going to need time to think about this. Most importantly, I need to inform my family. I’ll get back to you with the reply. Is that okay?”Miles shook his shoulders. “It’s your choice to make, so the decision is absolutely up to you. But once the establishment shuts down, the $10 million offer will be immediately off the table.”Lucas nodded and left the office. Miles and Eden stared at each other with a smile as they silently conversed with one another.A few days later, the class reunion is finally here.The venue was well designed as the hosts included people like August Leonard. People in suits and luxurious dresses were catching up at the venue.“Oh my goodness, it’s been so long since I saw you. How has it been in Thailand?”“It’s been going well. What about you? I heard you’re now a huge make-up artist in the film industry. I always knew you were going to shock that industry with your gift.”These were adults who knew each other while
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 133: MEETING ETHAN JAMES.
Miles and Lola had quickly become the center of attention at the class reunion. People who didn’t even normally speak to them back in college were now trying to act like they’d been best friends since forever. Of course, Miles and Lola tried to keep away from these pretentious people but they just kept flooding back towards them.“What is this, Abigail?!” Mark gritted his teeth as he watched the people around Miles and his wife. “I thought you said that Miles would definitely be humiliated if he should show up at this class reunion of yours. You said everyone despised him because he was poor and classless, so what am I looking at here?”“Hey, don’t be mad at me!” Abigail was getting pissed at her boyfriend. “How the hell was I supposed to know that Miles would suddenly show up looking like he was born extremely rich family?!” A devious idea suddenly popped into her head, causing a wicked smirk to break out on her face. “Since we know that Miles is nothing but a poverty-stricken man w
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 134: ETHAN’S UNFORTUNATE SITUATION.
Once Ethan found out that the woman of his dream had been poached by another man, he approached this Collins Webber with a gentlemanly demeanor, willing to talk through it and even offering to let the woman they both desired to be with choose for herself. Unfortunately for Ethan, Collins felt angered that the son of a lower-class man actually felt he could compete with him. Thus, he had his men beat the hell out of Ethan that night until Ethan was hospitalized where he spent two months in a coma. After Ethan refined his consciousness, he told his father everything. Infuriated beyond words, Ethan’s father reported the situation to the police, simply demanding that Collins Webber apologize to his son, or else he would take the matter to court. The James family did not expect to suddenly find the police turning their backs against them, and they later understood that it was because the Webber family had paid them off. Following this, Ethan’s father took to the media to expose the tyran
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 135: ETHAN’S CHANGED SITUATION.
The slapped woman could only keep her shut as she saw that everyone was now looking at her with disdain. They scooted away from her whole whispering terrible words at her. Frustrated, the woman turned around and headed for the bathroom.“Bunch of fools and idiots!” She mumbled to herself while walking away.The crowd was starting to disperse a bit as they saw that the show was over. They returned to the smaller groups, chatting about what they had just witnessed.Meanwhile, Miles could see that Ethan was left heavily devastated and humiliated. His life had just been emptied out for people to judge so he didn’t feel welcomed here anymore. “Hey, come with me.” Miles pulled Ethan away from the crowd, towards a bathroom. Before he was gone, he winked at Lola.Lola sighed as she nodded back to her husband before he disappeared into the corridor. He understood that Miles was going to comfort Ethan. In the meantime, she got back to chatting with her friends from the sorority group. Some of
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 136: TAKING THE HONORARY SEAT.
Abigail sneered. “I knew that Mr. Leonard won’t allow that stupid Miles and her bitch wife to outdo him at the class reunion. Look at him?!”Mark nodded his head. “The estimated sum of his outfit might be as high as $40 million.”These two are not the only ones awed by August Leonard’s appearance, all the other former students had gathered around him, asking questions and overall, trying to strike up a conversation that would draw the man’s attention to them.“Alright, everyone, let’s give our highly esteemed guest of honor a breathing room!” A voice boomed through the speakers and everyone found the organizer speaking over a wide podium. “Mr. Leonard, as one of the most esteemed guests at this class reunion, I would like for you to join us on the grand seat. Please, do not refuse us.”Everyone around August Leonard began to urge him to not refuse the organizer’s invitation. Only the most successful people currently are allowed on that podium where the seats are superiorly designed an
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 137: UNWILLING TO TOAST.
The other women around Lola’s table had mixed reactions to seeing Miles sit at that table. Worst, he had gone up there with Ethan James, of all people. This is the same man who had been utterly ridiculed by another former coursemate.“Lola, what your husband is doing is crazy and sorta disrespectful.”“Right. How much does he really make per year? We all know Miles Creek back at college. He’s one of the poorest men you’d ever meet. I doubt much has changed for him over the years, so I can’t understand what would give him the absolute audacity to go up there and sit down with the likes of August Leonard.”Lola frowned slightly when she heard the things that her friends were saying about Miles. She wasn’t dumb, and thus, she could sense the passive aggressiveness of these other women. She looked up on that podium and a little moment of witnessing the way Miles carried himself, she was happy.To be honest, Lola has long been suspicious of her husband’s true identity. As the months pass b
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 138: AUGUST’S SUPERIOR.
“Miles, are you sure that August won’t come back to cause you any trouble?” Ethan couldn’t help but ask as the group of three exited the venue.Miles stared at Ethan with slight disbelief. “Buddy, what? You don’t trust me?”Before Ethan could clarify himself though, Lola spoke up first. “Actually, Miles, I’m also worried as well. I remember August Leonard very well. He may seem like a gentleman a lot of the time, but that man has always been petty as hell. There’s a high chance that he might take revenge against you shortly. Maybe, it’s best if you’re careful around him.”“Exactly!” Ethan exclaimed with a sigh of relief. The last thing he wanted was to make Miles, his savior at this low point in his life, mad at him due to a misunderstanding. That was why he was really glad that Miles’s wife understood what he was trying to say.Miles thought about it before he suddenly sneered as his gaze fell into the distance of nothingness. “if he decides to take some sort of sick revenge on me fo
