Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 14 - Banquet
The week was soon over, and the night of the grant banquet arrived. The Raven family frantically ran around the estate for last-minute preparations. Certainly Jackson got the invitation as well. The one thing Jackson had a weird feeling about was the big news the Raven family wanted to announce. He got word from Rina and the way she said it sounded suspicious. Jackson arrived at the estate by taxi. It wasn’t much for him to get his own driver like the rest of the guests who showed up in all kinds of luxurious vehicles, but he didn’t see a point in showing off his wealth. Just as he got off, he came across the youngster from the Ivory House and his father. As soon as the young Lord saw Jackson, he grew pale and glued his eyes to the ground. His father let out a sigh of disappointment and smiled bitterly at Jackson. Jackson smiled and walked past them. Once inside, a servant showed him to a table relatively far from where the Raven family sat. This treatment didn’t surprise Jacks

All eyes turned to Jackson. A young man no one knew who sat in the furthest corner of the garden had the power to order the ban of a family from none other than the glorious Rikelia Group.Jackson, having achieved his goal, was about to leave. Irwin remembered a detail the other seemed to have forgotten. He hastily approached Jackson and, in a domineering tone, commanded. “Kneel, pest!”Alistair Brown heard what Irwin said and, confused, looked at the old patriarch. “What’s your grandson doing?”“Hm? Oh, a while back, we put the chip on him when he kicked him out of the family.”Jackson chuckled. “Idiot!”Both Alistair Brown and the patriarch had shocked expressions on their faces. The old man from the Brown family, visibly surprised, uttered. “It didn’t work! Defective chip?”As soon as he felt the eyes of pity glaring at him, Irwin’s face turned crimson from anger. He turned around and shouted. “What are you looking at? Just a minute ago, you groveled at my feet like worms!”The pat

Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 17 - Stargazing
In front of her divine beauty, Jackson could only remain speechless. The young woman introduced herself with grace. Words escape his mouth unwillingly as if an invisible force urged him to speak. “N-Nice to meet you!”Elena chuckled after seeing his embarrassed state. She looked at her dad and smiled before returning to the car. Warren patted Jackson on the shoulder and walked towards the car, leaving Jackson frantically trying to catch up.Just before opening the car’s door, Jackson glanced at the wooden log cabin with visible nostalgia on his face. He spent the last month recuperating here. He grew attached to the place, but in his heart, he understood this was simply a step. His eyes beamed with vigor when he turned his gaze toward Southfield. “My journey began. I’ll return to you!”In his mind, the faces of those he held the dearest flashed in mere seconds. In his heart lingered the necessity for revenge. He raised his hand as if he was trying to grasp the city in his palm and squ
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 18 - Cloud Manor
“Auction House?”Jackson, lost in thought, remembered Mr. Pearl’s words about the one of the most prominent families in the world, owning an establishment like that. He quickly dismissed the thought, though.Warren saw the confusion in the young man’s eyes and chuckled. “What’s on your mind?”“It’s just… Even if my grandfather is that old man, why would you help a nobody like me…?”“I’m simply repaying a favor!”“Even in a million years, whatever you do won’t be enough, Warren!”Shivers run down their spines and blood froze in their veins when the woman’s domineering voice crept behind them. Jackson had surprise written all over his face and wanted to ask more, but hesitated.Warren turned around and saw his wife. The alluring woman walked towards Jackson and patted his head, making him blush. “Young man, you don’t have to worry about trivial things. We will help you the best we can!”After the last word came out of her mouth, she glared at her husband with a chill emanating from her

Blood drained from the faces of everyone present when the price of the bid went higher than that of the young Lord Brown. A chatter of disbelief like a wave washed the auditorium.“Who is the arrogant fellow?”“Doesn’t he know what happens when you offend the Brown family?”“He’s courting death! Let him be!”Elena, although worried it would escalate outside her control, kept her calm, and continued. “Two hundred thousand! Do I hear another?”The young Lord from the Brown family clicked his tongue. “Humph! Five hundred thousand, and if anyone raises the price, don’t blame my family for not forgiving you!”“Six hundred thousand!”Jackson’s thunderous voice echoed in the Auction House. It left everyone speechless, including Elena. The Brown family wasn’t an existence one should offend.Gritting his teeth, he shouted. “One million!”Jackson’s voice reverberated in the auditorium. “One million five hundred!”He didn’t care. One thing he was certain of, there was no way he'd let his mother’

Before they went on the road, Elena called Warren and informed him of the situation regarding the necklace they received from the West family. “As I told you earlier, daddy, we need to verify that it’s not the same necklace, otherwise we will have to deal with the blowback of such a humiliation…”Although he was reluctant to let them go, he agreed to in the end. If the West family indeed used such a means for a profit, they had to put an end to it. “Very well, but be careful. Let me remind you that the world thinks Jackson is dead. If someone recognizes him, it’ll cause an uproar.”With Elena behind the wheel, she drove to the cemetery where Jackson buried his parents. It took them a few hours to get there from Cloud Manor. The cemetery was on the outskirts of King Hill.Upon laying eyes on the home his family raised him, a surge of mixed feelings flooded his heart. A complex expression of sadness, anger slowly built up and fastened his heartbeat. The blood in his veins boiled. He cle
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 21 - An Old Friend
“Who dares to be so bold as to threaten my daughter in my house?”Warren’s thunderous voice echoed throughout the estate’s garden. It carried an angry intent which penetrated the souls of those present. The impact it left scarred their hearts to the point their knees lost all strength.Even though he didn’t direct it at him, Jackson felt Warren’s anger in his core. He took in a few deep breaths to nullify effects. With one hand, he covered his eyes from the blinding lights. He noticed six shadows standing, one on each side by the three vehicles.“Mr. Alroy, please forgive us. It wasn’t our intention, but my master sent me to retrieve the pendant. She wishes to return it to its rightful owner.”Jackson gritted his teeth. He clenched his fists and voiced. “I’m the rightful owner. I don’t care who your master is, but this necklace stays with me!”“Insolent brat!”One person charged at Jackson. Even the master of the Alroy family could feel the killing intent emitting from that stranger.
