Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 154: ANCIENT WORK UNDERNEATH.
The crowd couldn’t believe it at all as they heard the sound of paper being ripped apart. The shock intensified when it became clear to all of them that Miles had suddenly started tearing apart the painting he bought for $215,000 not even five minutes after he bought it.“Have you lost your goddamn minds, Miles?!” Joseph was horrified at the scene.“He must have lost it,” August whispered to his friend while his eyes remained on Miles who kept tearing at the painting.“What is he doing?!” Frederick Lore placed his hand on Jonathan’s arm as he kept a very worried gaze on Miles. “That painting has now lost all worth! This is a unique antique, and now, it’s been reduced to trash!”“I…um.” Jonathan was struggling to come up with a good explanation for his son-in-law. He was still discussing the possibility of a stable job for Miles within Frederick’s establishment. Initially, Miles had made a huge impression on the antique appraiser Big-Shot, but with this sudden destruction of an item, J
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 155: ASTONISHING WORTH.
Miles smiled ominously as he handed the painting over to Caleb. “Sure thing, Mr. Autumn.”Caleb frowned slightly before gathering himself. He had expected some snarky words from Miles, but he was thrown off by the man’s tactical obedience. Miles, on the other hand, didn’t feel any animosity from Caleb right now, and thus, he simply didn’t feel the need to make a snarky remark against the man. Plus, Caleb was one of the organizers, and Miles was more concerned with getting to the bottom of this painting revelation rather than getting in trouble with a major member of the organizing committee, which may then ruin his plan.Once the painting was in Caleb’s hands, he began inspecting this antique item along with the other organizers. They could only later confirm that this painting was indeed much more authentic and older in comparison to the painting that Miles had ripped away. The organizers had to call in the appraisal experts as well, including Frederick and Alexander, to inspect and

Miles didn’t dare show it but his heart surged with immediate warmth. Ever since he became the son-in-law of the Blaine family, the only compliments he had gotten through those years were ridicule and humiliating words from Fiona and Lesley. As for Jonathan, he had always been in a neutral line with Miles. He wasn’t round of Miles’s lack of money and status, but he definitely held no bitterness or hatred towards the hardworking man just because of it. In fact, he could tell that Miles was a fierce warrior with a loving and loyal heart, so he would always treat My Les with kindness and acknowledgment. Yet, this was the first time he would get such a pleasant compliment from his in-laws, and he was really glad that it came from the mouth of none other than Jonathan Blaine.“I think Mom and I were really misguided in our perception of this man,” Lesley murmured to himself while staring at Miles with astonishment on her face.Miles was able to work out his appreciation for the man when Jo

After the professional intervention by the organizers of the event, Joseph really had no other choice than to give up on trying to get back the painting he had sadly lost to Miles’s trickery. Worse, by the time he gave up, he found that the most notable member of the organizers had actually bought the painting from Miles’s father-in-law without wasting time at all. At this point, he was certain that there was no hope of him getting that antique painting back.Meanwhile, Jonathan kept staring at his phone in a daze, particularly at the bank credit alert displayed on his screen. He still couldn’t believe that an antique had actually brought him tens of millions of dollars, and it was all possible because of the hidden genius who he was more than lucky enough to have as a son-in-law. He wished Lola had also been here to witness what an amazing man she was married to. It didn’t matter though; he would be more than happy to tell her later. Hopefully, she would no longer listen to her mothe

Miles sighed outwardly this time. “Mr. Blaine, I simply asked Mr. Frederick to give me a bit of time to think about it. I do plan on giving him my reply, but I don’t want to make that decision in haste. This job will require a lot of my time, and Lola is already busy enough for the family. I can’t help but be worried about my little Kelsey. It might because really hard for her not having either of her parents around.”This was actually just an excuse that Miles came up with on the spot. In reality, he had no intention of accepting Mr. Frederick’s offer in the first place. He was already not in need of any money, as he had trillions of dollars in total under his possession. Also, he was already the chairman and CEO of Styleon Group Corporation, Jettex Industrial Limited, and the hidden bio-tech company he was rejuvenating under his name – Terra-Sentience Micron Corporation.Jonathan was reluctant but he had no choice other than giving in and understanding his son-in-law. This was Miles
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 159: FIRST ATTACK BY COLLINS.
August Leonard was still trying to calm Joseph down. As they kept going through the antique fair, picking out items they liked, Joseph had not completely calmed down yet. He would occasionally glare at Miles in the distance.August placed a soothing hand on the man’s back. “You need to forget about that incident, Joseph. Don’t worry, Miles will eventually get what’s coming to him.”Joseph sighed with a brooding. “It still won’t change the fact that I got swindled by that fucking bastard!” He kept his voice at a low register while still glaring at Miles occasionally. “That $50 million could have been mine if Miles hadn’t fucking cheated me. I regret showing Professor Alexander in the first place. That expert was useless. Someone like Miles could actually decipher that there was a more precious painting hidden beneath it, which is just annoying.”August didn’t want to hear about Miles for a while honestly. Because of this same man, he had lost his contribution to the Jettex Industrial L

Miles’s fingers on his phone screen froze above the object as he let out a sigh. “You guys are really hell-bent on causing trouble that much, huh?” Though his voice was calm, his face had a cold expression that couldn’t be seen as it was bent down over the phone in his hands. He was having a great time chatting with his gorgeous wife, talking about how delicious Miles’s lunch is, so he was not happy at this interruption.Jonathan walked forward with a bit of nervousness. “Um, gentlemen, I think there’s a more proper way to settle whatever dispute is going on here. On behalf of my son-in-law, I would like to….”“You!” The leader of this group of bodyguards pointed at Jonathan, cutting him off. “Did I ask you to join this conversation?! If you try that again, I’ll slap you so hard that your mouth won’t utter a word for a month. Try me!” This bodyguard was being unnecessarily disrespectful and he knew it. But they are the bodyguards of Collins Webber. He’s been the one leading Collins’s

Everyone was left shocked and confused though, when Miles walked out of that room looking as dashing as he did when he entered five minutes ago. Not only did he look unbothered, but he also looked untouched. There was no physical indignation that he was roughened up at all, talk less of being beaten up. He walked with a swagger in his steps as he returned to Jonathan’s side.“Mr. Blaine, what did I miss?” Miles stood before his father-in-law and had his hands in his pocket, looking quite cool.“What?! Wait! What the hell is going on?!” Lesley couldn’t contain her shock as she began searching around her brother-in-law’s body, almost stripping him of his top outfit and touching every inch of his torso. “Miles, where the fuck are the bruises and the bleeding?”Miles held Lesley’s hands back and away from his body. “Relax, okay? I’m fine. Nothing much happened.”At that moment, the door opened again and a bunch of those bodyguards stepped out of the room. The scene became shocking as thes
