Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE: LUCAS’S LIE (1).
Fiona didn’t know what to do; she hated that the birthday party was now ruined as Jonathan stormed off to his room, demanding privacy, after what had happened with the jade box that turned out to be priceless rather than worthless.The birthday party was now ruined and the celebrant had left the living room. Lesley took charge of calming down the rest of the family to at least keep up the positive vibe in the atmosphere.Meanwhile, Fiona pulled Lola to the kitchen. “How could you not tell me that the gift your husband brought was that expensive?”Lola had a look of incredulity on her face. “Mom, please tell me you’re joking. I had no idea either. In fact, back then, Miles wanted me to pick that item as my gift to Dad, but I refused. Later, I found out that someone else showed up out of nowhere and was willing to pay as much as $100,000 for it.”“What?!” Fiona’s eyes almost bulged out. “Lola, you did not include this part in your earlier narration. How on earth did you not get suspicio
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX: LUCAS’S LIE (2).
The birthday was still going on in honor of the guests who were here, even though the celebrant had no desire to be near his wife at the moment.With Jonathan not present, everyone had begun fawning over the second most interesting person there.“Lucas, you’re so awesome. You and your father must have great influence.”“Lucas, I heard that you were the one who used your father’s influence to secure Mrs. Blaine’s contract deal with Eckre Empire Headquarters. You’re awesome!”Lucas was seated in the exact spot that was reserved for Jonathan as the Blaine family members showered him with praises. Lesley sat right beside her boyfriend with glee. She felt like she had done what her older sister couldn’t: she had secured a romantic relationship with a wealthy man. She started devising ways to lock Lucas down for good, guaranteeing that he would end up being the son-in-law of the Blaine family.A call suddenly came and Lucas realized it was his father calling him. “Excuse me, I have to pick

Lucas couldn’t dare to look at anyone at this point. He could only curse in his mind. He angrily ended the call with his father. He deeply regretted picking up the man’s call in the first place. He would have never done so if he knew this was what it would lead to.“Oh my goodness! You really are nothing but a fraud!” Fiona was furious. She had proudly flaunted Lucas in front of the whole family. Now that this had happened on a public scale, she couldn’t help but feel humiliated.“So my husband was right to suspect you this whole time! I feel so dumb not believing him.” Lola stared at the man with resentment. She had also reprimanded Miles for trying to expose this guy earlier.Lesley was tearing up at this point. “You….You are absolutely disgusting. You shamelessly took credit for the things you didn’t do.” She got right in front of Lucas and slapped him across the face. “Get out of this house, and get the hell out of my life forever! I never want to hear from you ever again!”At thi

Miles also looked directly into Lola’s eyes before he nodded his head. “Yes, my love. It’s me.”Lola shook her head. “But how?”Miles chuckled before gently holding her hands. “I told you last time, remember? My relationship with the CEO of Eckre Empire Headquarters. As for how I was able to deal with that nasty client that kept delaying the finalization of the millions of dollars of contract deal, I actually bought…..” He was about to reveal that he owned a huge portion of Styleon Group Corporation when his words were suddenly cut short.Lola yanked her hands right out of her husband’s caring hold. She was now spotting a furious look on her face. “There you go with your nonsense again. Aren’t you shameless? Why do you think I’d even believe that the great CEO of Eckre Empire Headquarters is your family’s butler?” She shook her head with an exasperated scoff. “I should have expected that I wouldn’t get a single truthful answer from you.” She turned around. “Forget that I asked you in
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE: MISSING MONEY.
Miles was quite pissed by the comments he was hearing going on in the security guard section. How did this rumor even start? Who was spreading it around the company to the point that security guards are now making fun of the issue?If this rumor had only been about ridiculing Miles, the Creek heir would have never been affected. After all, he was the son-in-law of a family that thrived off of berating and humiliating him at every given chance. What Miles couldn’t take was that his wife was being insulted in such a manner.“What the hell is Fisher doing? Is he really that incompetent of a company manager?” Miles whispered to himself. These security guards were having a good laugh when the door was suddenly kicked open and every one of them was shocked to find Miles walking in.Miles looked at the faces of these security guards. “Who said those utterly nasty things about my wife?” The room got quiet as the men in security uniforms looked at each other with hesitance. Even though he wa
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CHAPTER SIXTY: MISSING MONEY.
Miles was deeply confused after the head of security confirmed his question with a head nod. Miles wondered how someone from the finance department could be this irresponsible with the company’s money. He needed to talk to Fisher McCall about these inadequacies in employee competence. If this is not curbed on time, it will lead to problems in the future.“Have a nice day,” Miles said his goodbyes to the head of security. He needed to talk to Fisher.“Wait!” The security suddenly stood up as he glared at Miles with suspicion in his eyes. “Something is wrong.”Miles had a confused expression on his face. He had no idea what was going on.The head of security lifted the briefcase to show Miles what was in it. Miles walked closer to see that the briefcase was truly filled with dollar notes. That was when he noticed that there was a small space that had been made in the box. There was supposed to be money in that space.“As you can see, the money isn’t complete.” The head of security had a

“Put away that phone. Do not call the police, got it?” Fisher McCall spoke sternly to the head of security. “As for these two, I’ll resolve the issue. They’re coming with me.”The head of security could only give in with a nod of approval. This was his superior after all. Fisher led Miles and the finance personnel out of the security sector and they took the elevator up to the floor where the company manager’s office is located. Once they were gone, the head of security suddenly had a look of anger on his face. “Damn it! We almost got him.” He then retrieved his phone and dialed a number. “Sir, I’m calling to give you feedback on that operation.”The person at the end of the call was Edmund Porsche. “Talk to me, Head Security. Have you arrested that bastard, Miles” He laughed with a dark tone in his voice. He was alone in his office, sitting behind his desk with a sinister expression on his face. “I can’t wait to see him in jail.”The head of security couldn’t help but scratch his h
Rise of the Belittled Son-in-Law CHAPTER SIXTY–TWO: MEETING AN OLD FRIEND.
Fisher was surprised and he felt like something weird was going on. “How did you suddenly find the missing money?” The head of security struggled to calm his nerves. “I decided to double-check at that elevator where Mr. Miles had found the briefcase. It was there that I found the money at the back of the large plant pot near that elevator. I’m guessing someone must have accidentally kicked the briefcase open and the money had flown out.”Miles fought the urge to shake his head at this. It was clear as broad daylight that this head of security was lying. Miles began to wonder who was really responsible for this charade. It was quite certain that someone had set him up with that briefcase and the missing money. Miles was also smart enough to realize that this finance personnel was also paid to make him out as the thief. Otherwise, it made no sense that a man he had never conversed with would suddenly accuse him of robbery with so much certainty. The head of security dropped the briefc
