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

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

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

“My goodness! Mr. Miles, I had no idea it was you.” The older man had an apologetic expression on his face immediately. “I am truly sorry.”Miles smiled professionally at the older man. “Nah! Stop it, Mr. Bell, it’s fine.” He walked forward and shook hands with the man.Lola frowned slightly as she stared at the man whom she had been seen around her husband before. “Who is that man?” She mumbled to herself. Checking out the man’s outfit, she deduced that this Mr. Bell was an influential man. His total outfit was quite close to a million dollars in worth after all.Ethan, who had been standing close to Lola, heard the woman’s mumbled question. “Lola, you don’t know that man?!”Lola picked up on the surprise tone in Ethan’s voice, and she shook her head in response. “No, I’ve never seen him before. And you? Do you have any idea who he is?”Ethan nodded immediately. “That’s Mr. Jackson Bell, a very powerful man in the government. Specifically, he's a senior officer in the government.” He

Jackson Bell didn’t need to know the details. Solely based on the fact that Miles didn’t like August Leonard, he knew he had to do as Miles wished. If Jackson did otherwise, it would definitely piss Miles off which would then affect the relationship between Miles and the city authorities. By then, the higher-ups would definitely make Jackson suffer for ruining their relationship with such a wealthy hidden tiger such as Miles. Thus, Jackson Bell knew he absolutely couldn’t ad to offend Miles Creek.“Mr. Miles, I hear you loud and clear. I will have my subordinate removed from this very important project as soon as possible.” Jackson spoke with assurance.This pleased Miles and he tapped the older man on the shoulder. “Good talk then.” His smile had brightened up by now. “Very well then. I heard you’re currently trying to put certain laws into place to better the state of the city. I heard about them and I think you’re doing a very good thing for the people. I would love to endorse your

“I have to say, Miles, you’ve really become quite a mysterious person over the years.” Ethan let out his thoughts as he was driven by Miles along the road. “How did you even know a man as powerful as Mr. Jackson Bell?”Miles chuckled as he could hear the slight excitement in Ethan’s voice. “It’s a secret, my friend. No one is privy to know that, yet, at least.”Ethan nodded his head as his smile became slightly weak. He then began speaking with a calm voice. “Miles, you really saved me today. I don’t if you realize how truly grateful I am to you for the things you and your wife did, but I’m really….”Miles placed a comforting hand on Ethan’s shoulder while his other hand was still on the steering. Somehow, he still managed to look cool while being in such an awkward angle. “I don’t want you mentioning this to me again, got it? You, my friend, used to help me a lot back during our college days. This is the least that I can do for you. As for the managerial position, it should be open t
