Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 25: Jaria's first day at work
He stares at her intensely while waiting for her response. "I wasn't born with it, I developed it over time to cope with depression and distraction." "What do you mean?" He asks since he doesn't understands. "When I was a teenager, I always had series of crushes on guys and most of them weren't reciprocated, they didn't even seem to notice me because I wasn't rich. Sometimes I had depression over this and even when I grew older to my late teens, I would always be distracted from my work trying to get a guy know about my feelings." She pauses and thinks about it, what she is saying, how she felt those days. Then she continues. "I'm really grateful to God for giving me the ability to let go and not feel any crush towards anybody. Now I don't have to try figure out if someone loves me or try to get a guy's attention." Derek supports his chin with his hand as he is lost in thought looking at her. He imagines himself trying to fall in love, other men as well but such a beautiful girl l

"Yes," she replies but suddenly, the delight on her face for having to see her parents changes immediately. It's being replaced by a sorrow Derek has never seen on anyone.

Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 29: A visit to Jaria's family
Jaria clears her throat to answer his question. "Well," she starts. "The loss occurred about eight years ago but the pain is still as fresh as today, I really miss those brothers of mine whenever I look at their pictures at home." It sounds so pitiable for Derek, he imagines himself being in such condition. "Wait! Brothers? They were all males?" He thought that perhaps since they were much, it would be a combination of both males and females, or at least one female would be among. Jaria shakes her head. "No, I was the only girl. It's only now, my parents brought another girl. She is a domestic assistant but I often see her as my sister. I heard that they adopted a guy, kind of an adoption," she shrugs his shoulders. "But he is thirty, this is what they told me." It's gonna be the first time she is going to be seeing him and her heart is pumping so fast.

They have their own ways of communicating. "I can't think of anything, whatever you like." Jaria seems to say this from the responding gaze. He shrugs his shoulders and then looks at Clara. "You can't call me sir, I'm Derek. If your daughter calls me this, then you must call me that." He tells her with a very polite voice. Clara smiles. "I never knew this guy could be so humble." She says within her. She is impressed by this attitude of his. "What do you wish to take?"She asks him. "Anything available." Derek doesn't wants to stress them, he knows quite all well that this is not his house and he shouldn't be telling them what to take, he can only reject what is brought if it's not something that is good for his system. Dennis is puzzled the more. "I so much love your humble attitude, for a perso
