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
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 161: UNSEEN BEAT UP (2).
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
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 162: TWO MORE SLAPS.
Miles stood before Collins with a slightly tilted head. His expression was cold as he stared directly into the man’s eyes.Those who had not entered the stone gambling room, saw what was happening and they quickly gathered around inconspicuously, not wanting to make their interest in this situation obvious, but that was what they ended up doing.Jonathan and Lesley held their breaths as they saw the way Miles was brazenly standing up to Collins. Neither of them could understand what was giving Miles the guts to do this. It was as if he was not afraid of the retaliation that would befall him once the Webber family as a whole was involved.“How dare you slap my face in that room?” Collins looked deeply into Miles’s unwavering eyes with astonishment. “I’m almost shocked at your bravery. Do you not have any fucking idea who I am? It seems you have never tasted the edges of death before, have you? You have no idea what messing with me will cost you and your family. I won’t only destroy you
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 163: PRECIOUS STONE GAMBLING.
Everyone still couldn’t believe what they had witnessed. They were all aware at this point that Miles was an ordinary man who was simply fortunate enough to be the son-in-law of a man like Jonathan. Still, Jonathan’s status in the city wasn’t that significant, and worse, Miles was known to be a stay-at-home dad who lived off of his hardworking wife’s earnings. Yet, this seemingly ordinary man had stood up to someone as powerful and influential as Collins Webber. Even a lot of men whose status was far superior to Miles’s, they wouldn’t dare face the son of the Webber family, knowing how their method of revenge can be extremely cruel and borderline evil.Miles went into a room full of capable bodyguards and he single-handedly dealt with all of them seriously, to the point where they were struggling to walk upright. Then he stood up to Collins and publicly humiliated him with brutal slaps, two in addition to the one he had given the man in private.Miles was looking like an untouchable d

This was how the process was recycling for every gemstone showcased on the stage, one at a time. The war of bidding was fierce and people kept trying to one-up each other for whichever gemstone caught their eyes.Unfortunately for Miles, he wasn’t interested in this session at all. He had only remained here because Lesley begged him to be here. He was starting to get seriously bored as time went on. He glanced at his father-in-law to find him also in a similar state of boredom. He then shifted his gaze to find Lesley in a much more thrilled emotional state. She was genuinely enjoying this session.Miles sighed, thinking he may have to come up with an excuse to get the heck out of this place, and that was when a particularly skinny and average-height man caught his eyes. Miles stared a little longer until he recalled who this person was.“What is Krone Dodge doing here?” Miles f owned as he recognized this man.“Krone Dodge? Who’s that?” Jonathan, who was seated right beside Miles, sco
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 165: CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.
Caleb Autumn was not happy about this situation at all. It was so sudden and there was very little option out of this conundrum he was suddenly put into. He glanced through the crowd and saw their eyes on him. At this point, he knew that he had no choiceThe main reason for his hesitance was the inclusion of the import channel rights owned by Dominion City. Years of control over this and he might lose it in the hands of that man because of a gamble. Sadly, he couldn’t turn away from the challenge, or else, his reputation as the jewelry industry leader was at great stake.Caleb cleared his throat before facing Krone Dodge. “Challenge accepted.”The crowd suddenly cheated and Miles and his in-laws, along with the rest of the crowd realized something. About 30% of this crowd were from Edgewood-Ave City, and they were here to support none other than Krone Dodge. This was a setup, which meant that they came fully prepared to win this gamble. If this ends up in their favor, not only does th
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CH. 166: DOMINION VS EDGEWOOD-AVE.
The older man with a goatee thought about it for a moment before quickly nodding his head. “I accept this prestigious choice, Mr. Caleb.” He got up from his seat.“Woah! Alright, I think Mr. Caleb made a good choice picking Justin Fallon.” Lesley praised in an excited but lowered voice.Miles became curious at his little sister-in-law’s excitement. “Is this Justin Fallon really that good as an appraisal expert?”Lesley looked at Miles with incredulity that he even asked that question. “You’ve never heard of Justin Fallon?! This guy is so good that he actually ranked seventh in the global gemstone gambling and antique appraisal.”Miles’s brows rose when he heard this. “I see.” He looked back on stage with a head nod.Krone Dodge chuckled on the stage when he saw who Caleb Autumn had picked. He then glanced to a section of the audience where Edgewood-Ave City’s merchants were seated. “I’m choosing Lincoln Park, as my representative.”“I accept as the chosen, Mr. Dodge!” A young man spok
