Chapter 7

The next day, Felix watched as his so-called mother-in-law prepared to go to the grocery store while Meq was almost done preparing for work , just having her breakfast.

He was almost done with getting ready for work as he was preparing breakfast for Dice in the kitchen, Kate began to yell out his name.

" Felix, you bastard!" Kate yelled his name again and felix rushed to the living room.

There, he saw Kate was sitting on the couch with Dice.

"Good morning ma" he greeted and turned to the Meq "good morning great wife."

She ignored him like she didn't hear a thing then ordered, "go get me my bag from my room." He nodded and went to bring it for her.

"Gosh, he irritates me like damn" Meq said seeing him going to bring her bag

He came back and handed the bag over to her

"Hope you didn't steal anything from my bag because what's in there cost more than your miserable life" . Felix sighed and ignored her

then turned back to Face Kate.

"Mummy I will be off to work, dear loser hope I don't set my eyes on you!" She Muttered and perked Kate's cheek then left the house, Felix shook his head

"Yes ma, you called me the other time."

"You have to make up for the time you missed at the grocery store, it's good that you're dressed already so let's go." Kate stated, arranging her stuffs, expecting Felix to join her in it.

After a while of receiving no response, Kate turned back only to see Felix smiling at her as he stood and watched what she was doing.

Shit, how much she hated that cunning smile.

"You brat!! Are you deaf?! Why standing there like a log of wood?!" She yelled at the top of her voice.

"I got a job," Felix said in a casual tone. Kate scanned him thoroughly. It took a while, before She started her loud, derisive laughter.

"Hehe... You rubbish, who do you want to deceive, huh?" Kate taunted acidly.

"I'm not lying. I got a job at my friend's company."

It took Felix a while to decide the best lie as a cover-up. He didn't even know when that came out of his mouth. He never expected that they would still be ignorant given the fact that they had such a talkative daughter like Meq.

"You mean a useless dump like you was offered a job? In a company? Haha, let me guess... Is it as a cleaner or a gatekeeper?.. . Oh no, maybe it's a trash collector... Haha," Kate sneered non-stop.

Kate stood up." You wretched soul are not allowed to work! If you leave who will do the work in the store? Who will deliver the groceries to our customers?... Also, at least for once, think of this little baby Dice! Who'll look after him when you're at work? Don't be an ingrate!"

Kate ranted on and on in frustration. She just didn't want to believe that he was capable enough. He was supposed to be their underling! Not the other way round! He was supposed to be a grocery boy!

Felix was fuming in anger, receiving all the insults without complaint. He once thought that if he got a job, her attitude towards him will get better but it was just his wishful thinking.

As for now, it didn't matter to him anymore. He suppressed his brewing anger and opened his mouth to speak, "Auntie, let's not forget that money is involved here. I am going to be paid a lot of money! Look at it! A job as an accountant will fetch us nothing less than 10000$ a month! And of course the money will be given to you, my dearest in-law!" Felix let out an annoying smile.

He made sure to use the most flattering voice he could to persuade her. Thank goodness his brain came to him when he needed it the most. Phew!

Kate on hearing this from him was excited about that and reconsidered it. After all, this foolish son-in-law was surely going to bring his earnings back to her at the end of the day. So.... Why not? Let him work his ass off! She can take absolute care of the grocery store and Dice on their own without his help.

Kate cleared his throat and said, "Do as you wish. Just make sure you don't go back on your words..."

She made it sound like he was doing Felix a favour. They were being greedy yet so egoistic. Amazing in-laws of the year!

"Good luck to you! And make sure you don't fumble, dumbass! "Kate yelled as Felix left the house.

A.X. CORPORATION.

Felix reached the company and was going into his office when he stumbled into Fred.

Fred stopped him as he saw Felix entering the financial department. "Hey you son of a bitch, what the hell are you doing here? Oops! Almost forgot. You now work here, haha."

"Excuse me." Felix tried walking away but Fred pushed him back.

"Oh, how great! You wanna enter inside when I'm still talking to you?! You've got some nerves huh! Is it because you got a job here, you think you have the right to talk to me like that?"

Felix really wanted to punch this guy really hard but of what use will it be anyway?

Instead, he walked nearer to him and put his hands together. "Please Fred, enough. I don't have time for your nonsense, neither do I have time to exchange words with you. So, get out of my way so I can go in!"

Fred was startled at first, but soon started laughing, "Look here, loser! I'm not scared of you. And if you choose to act foolishly like you already are, I'll make sure to give you the worst beating of your life! Gosh, you're so despicable and no wonder your wife hates you to the core!" Fred said scornfully. As he walked away, he didn't forget to deliberately hit Felix's shoulder.

Felix was so angry, then he decided to meet his dad at his office.
