Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 47 - Meeting
Blue and red lights lit in sequence across Jackson’s face. Each time his expression changed; it was as if he had been in a stop motion film.Loud sirens echoed, overwhelming the soothing chirping of the crickets.The cool breeze that night felt like no other. A sudden chill caressed Jackson’s cheeks, sending chills throughout his body. Shivers lingered for several seconds after the gust passed.Just thinking about what happened almost made him vomit.He held young Raios in his arms. Warm crimson fluid flowed endlessly from the youth’s wound. The intense smell made Jackson taste the metallic fragrance which remained in his nostrils after it violently infiltrated his nose.Even though Raios confirmed it, Jackson still couldn’t believe what he heard.The previous owner of the Fleeting Moon has died. An undisputed fact he couldn’t wrap his head around.Raios bled profusely in Jackson’s arms. If the ambulance took a little longer, he wouldn’t have made it.The paramedics provided first aid
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 48 - Rosalia Hynkel
Ophelia caressed Jackson’s head as she embraced him. Her soft voice tickled his ears while she whispered. “Hear me, Jackson. Ruby’s eyes are a dead indicator of the Hynkel family. She won’t do anything to you. But one thing makes little sense. Why would this girl act against you like this? Something else must’ve forced her…”***While Jackson thought of Ophelia Woodfield’s words, Rosalia approached him.Her intense stare made him shiver, although he knew she wouldn’t do anything to him.“I see… So, you heard of our family ties…”The girl walked around him before having a seat on the sofa. She gently patted next to her, urging Jackson to sit beside her.When he obliged, Rosalia smiled.“You are correct. I don’t plan on killing you… But you are wrong about something. I’m from the branch family, therefore, not your cousin…”Jackson did not know what one had to do with the other, and before he could ask her, the girl with the ruby eyes continued.“We, the branch family, protect the main f
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 49 - Escape
Rosalia resumed her stoic expression from earlier and let out a chilling voice. “Who is it?”“It’s Lester…!”The young woman looked at Jackson with intensity. She walked across the room towards the locked door, which Lester tried to pry open. Rosalia continued with the same icy tone. “What do you want?”“Is it done?!”“Didn’t you want him to suffer?”Lester Brown banged his hand on the door. “Of course, that trash humiliated me…”“Then don’t bother me and let me do my job…”“Haha! Excellent!”Rosalia put her ear against the door, listening to Lester’s footsteps fading out. She let out a sigh of relief and returned to her previous position. She looked at Jackson with visible frustration on her face. “What did you do to him?”Jackson uttered with a chuckle. “I took away one of his toys…”Within a few minutes, Jackson received a call from Elena. With her help, the medical personnel sent by his grandfather arrived and, in coordination with the girl, they snuck into the room.***Several h
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 50 - Rosenbaum Kingdom
In order for Jackson to reach Eastal, he’d have to go through the kingdom of Rosenbaum. Because of the harsh landscape and uneven roads, driving there was close to impossible.The kingdom of Rosenbaum had a royal train built a few decades ago, for allowing the nobles of the world to travel.They didn’t allow commoners to use it, instead they had to use the unfriendly environment of the ground, although they were the ones who built the tracks.It would take close to eight hours to travel from one side of the land to the other. Like anywhere else around the world, the position one got on the train could measure their wealth.For Jackson to get the tickets he needed, he first had to seek an audience with the Queen. Based on their meeting, he would assign a room and wagon.Just as Rosalia mentioned, she had trouble with directions and navigating herself from one place to another. Instead of taking him straight from Riverbank to the Rosenbaum kingdom, Rosalia took a detour, describing it
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 51 - VIP Wagon
In the noble’s eyes, the queen was a weak woman who couldn’t really rule a nation. He respected her father, but not her, and he showed it in front of every noble in the room.At that moment, he didn’t really care what would happen to Jackson and Rosalia. He just wanted to humiliate the young woman and gain prestige amongst his peers.He thought he could show everyone how a leader should rule. Brazenly, he commanded the royal guards, which garnered everyone’s attention for a while.A malicious grin appeared on his face when he put Jackson in his crosshairs. He thought little a disrespectful kid. He finally turned his gaze towards the young queen. “This is how you do it!”Just as a guard stepped forward, blood drained from his face when he met the queen’s gaze.“Hold it!”The previously soft-spoken woman let out a thunderous voice, freezing everyone in their tracks. The guards stomped their feet, and the noble let out a shriek.A glint appeared in the Queen’s eyes. She stared straight a
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 52 - Royal Train
With two bedrooms, a kitchen, various appliances and two bathrooms, Jackson and Rosalia relaxed in their VIP wagon. The massive living room had hard wood enameled with a preservative, making the floor sparkle. Large windows covered the sides, with bright sunlight bursting through.A corridor was the only thing separating the room from the exit. After all, people working the train should be able to go back and forth without interrupting the residents of the VIP wagon.Jackson sat by the window, looking outside at the changing scenery. Different hues of green as the landscape changed between forests and valleys.The ruby eyed girl watched him and grew bored as time passed. She laid on the sofa, staring at the ceiling. A sigh escaped her mouth before uttering. “What will you do when you get to Eastal?”“Well, for starters, I have to meet with the Hynkel family…”Rosalia giggled. “That shouldn’t be too hard.”“Yeah, well…”Jackson took out his mother’s pendant. The chain hung between his
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 53 - Sneaking Around
Sun shone brightly over the world. A serene landscape filled with an abundance of greenery and life got disrupted by the fast-moving train which went through it.The heavy, over the top luxurious machine raised dust in its path as it followed the tracks laid out for it. The ever-increasing speeds made its metallic plates tremble.After the initial threat against him, Jackson refused to stay on the sidelines while Rosalia risked her life. They didn’t even know what the situation was. Although they announced the heist through the speakers, it still didn’t convince them.If he wanted to take down the people who wronged him, Jackson wouldn’t run away. He had to take that step and prove to himself he could do it. Instead of holding up in a corner and hiding, he went straight at them. Rosalia sighed in frustration and went after him.“You can’t possibly think you can take them on…!”Jackson scoffed at the ruby-eyed girl. “I’m not an idiot!”Like a burst of air escaping her lips as a whisper
Son-in-Law: A Commoner's Path to Revenge Ch. 54 - Trapped!
Jackson gasped. He breathed a mouthful of air in anticipation.A man with a cloth on his face noticed the movement Rosalia made and turned his weapon towards her.To Jackson’s surprise, the ruby-eyed girl hit her target and smashed the light bulb. The pieces flew in all directions. It made a pop sound just as a bullet hit Rosalia, which sent her backward.In that brief second, it felt as if time froze. Jackson’s focus was on the girl and the floating droplets of blood surrounding her. With widened eyes and visible shock written all over his face, he rushed to grab her, missing her by a few inches.Absolute darkness once more enveloped the train cart.Rosalia made a thud when she fell on the wooden floor. She bit her lips to avoid letting out a shout of pain.Jackson didn’t let the pitch-black environment hinder him. He picked up the girl and went straight to the door without putting in mind the people after him.One after the other, popping sounds followed by ricochets and sparks on t
