Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 110 (Where Is He)
Drake lay in the bed, his eyes closed, his face pale but peaceful. Summer's heart swelled with love and relief as she approached him, taking his hand in hers. She sat down beside him, waiting for him to wake up, her eyes fixed on his face.After a couple of minutes, agent Conner and grandfather Walter arrived at the hospital, a worried look on their faces."Where is he?" Grandfather Walter demanded from one of the nurses."Who, sir?" The nurse asked, surprised, as she had no idea that it was Walter Sullivan himself, the Grand Patriarch of the Sullivan empire that she was speaking with."My grandson, Drake Sullivan," Grandfather Walter's voice rose angrily.The doctor came out of his office to see what was going on, and quickly intervened."Good evening sir," he greeted. "Please pardon my nurse. She's new here,"Grandfather Walter's anger subsided a bit after the doctor mentioned that the nurse whom they had approached to ask about Drake's wellbeing was new. It appeared so awkward to h
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 111 (Having Lots Of Enemies)
Drake's voice dropped to a whisper. "I was particularly angry towards my grandfather because I felt he did nothing when my parents died.""Did nothing? What do you mean by that?" Summer continued to probe."You see, my grandfather has a lot of enemies and in an attempt to get to him, my parents had to pay with their own lives. I was angry, and so, I had to cut ties with him." Drake explained.Summer's eyes were both a mix of confusion and trepidation. The thought of Drake's grandfather having a lot of enemies as revealed by Drake himself, was already sending shivers down her spine. She didn't know if she should still go ahead with what she was thinking, regarding moving in with Michelle to start living with Drake.Then again, the fact that Drake had to return to be with his grandfather, despite his reservations towards him, also gave him a reason to be concerned."But why did you return to take over your grandfather's businesses when you're fully aware that he has a lot of enemies? Wh
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 112 (Hey Sweetie!)
Summer opened the front door, returning to the house after spending the entire day with Drake in the hospital. She was looking so exhausted and was looking forward to a brief moment of resting before she takes Michelle with her to discharge Drake from the hospital alongside grandfather Walter.But just as expected, she was met with the sight of her parents, Fletcher and Rachel, sitting in the living room. They exchanged forced smiles, pretending to be concerned."Hey, sweetie! How's Drake doing now?" Rachel asked, feigning care and sweetness.Summer's instincts prickled, sensing the pretence in her mother's facade. She knew Rachel wasn't asking out of concern, as it was very much obvious, given the way she had always loathed Drake right from the very first day she set her eyes on him."Drake's doing well, by the way. He'll be discharged later today," she said, her tone neutral.Fletcher leaned forward, feigning interest. "That's great, dear. We were worried sick about him. Even Michel
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 113 (If This Plan Fails)
Rose paced back and forth in the foyer of the house where she now found herself, her frustration evident in every step. Her plan, meticulously crafted over the years, was on the verge of unravelling. She clenched her fists, feeling the weight of impending failure pressed down on her chest. With a sudden surge of emotion, she let out a piercing scream that echoed through the halls.While she was still there in her troubled thoughts, Hillary Koeman walked in, almost startling. He was having a meeting with a couple of other important personalities when his secretary called to inform him that Rose Ferdinand was waiting to meet up with him."Mrs. Ferdinand, what's wrong? Why'd you scream like that? Did something bad happen again?” He asked, as he came to where she was standing. The fact that Rose had decided to suddenly show up without a prior notice was enough to send a message to him that something was wrong, and now hearing her scream, was enough to convince him that all was not well.
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 114 (Welcome Home Drake)
A warm smile spread across Drake's face as he stepped into the Sullivan's mansion, greeted by a sea of familiar faces. All the stewards, and loyal members of the Sullivan's empire were gathered together.The room was filled with balloons and streamers, and a large banner that read "Welcome Home Drake!" in bold letters. The household staff and members of the Sullivan family were all present, beaming with smiles.It was a "Welcome home!" surprise party which was organised by the household members and it really touched his heart. He felt loved and appreciated, his exhaustion from the hospital stay momentarily forgotten."Welcome home, sir Drake," they all greeted one after the other, some shaking hands with him, while others planting kisses on his cheeks."Thank you, so much," Drake replied them too, one after the other, a warm smile tugged at the corners of his lips."Looking for someone?" Grandfather Walter inquired, as he could see through Drake, his eyes moving from one end of the ro
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 115 (Drake's Curiosity)
Drake stepped into the office, feeling revitalized after a week of recuperation at home. Taking a two weeks break to him, was more than just waiting to get better before resuming work as the chairman of the Sullivan's group. It also gave him time to be with his wife and daughter whom he had been away from for quite a long time.Michelle had finally be enrolled in one of the most expensive schools in the city, but things haven't been going on well with her. Her classmates wouldn't cease to laugh at her calling her a cripple and a disabled girl."Don't worry about them, baby," Drake would always tell her. "I'm very sure that one day you'll walk again,"Drake really wanted Michelle to walk again, but the hospitals around were not seeing it's possibilities. He had even taken her for several X-ray scans just to know the extent to which the accident had affected her legs, and each time, the doctors would call him to a separate corner and tell him that they weren't seeing the possibility of
Rise of the Pauper Son-in-law Chapter 116 (Of Course)
The board members of the Sullivan's group fidgeted in their seats, exchanging whispered conversations as they awaited Drake's arrival. The tension in the room was palpable, with some members expressing doubts about his attendance."Do you think he'll show up this time?" whispered a female board member, her brow furrowed with concern."Of course, he will," replied another."I hope he does," another member added. "Remember what happened the last time.""Let's just hope he doesn't keep us waiting this time around, and then leave without prior notification."The whispers continued, with some members speculating about him abusing the fact that he was the only heir to the Sullivan's empire and others wondering if he was truly committed to leading the company. "If not for the fact that he was the only surviving member of the Sullivan family to take over the empire," another displeased member of the board expressed her dissatisfaction."I really find it difficult to believe that Walter Sulli

Agent Conner arrived at the police station, and the bustling atmosphere immediately caught his attention. Drake had instructed him to try and reopen the case regarding the death of his parents which was buried a long time ago.Drake had done everything he could to make sure he didn't involve the police, but it seems as though none of it was working. He really needed to know more about the IRIS and what really happened to his parents.As agent Conner entered, he saw people coming and going, and the air was filled with the sound of ringing phones and urgent conversations. He made his way inside to the desk officer, carefully holding onto the file he had obtained from Drake.Suddenly, a man dressed in black, and wearing a hat which covered his face, bumped into him, causing Conner to stumble and nearly drop the file. "Hey, watch it!" he exclaimed, but the man simply muttered a quick apology and hurriedly made his way out of the station. Agent Conner couldn't shake off the feeling that th
