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. Her mother told her few weeks ago that he looked so much like his first brother and if he had lived, would be thirty years now, jus
Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 30: Jane meets Albert
"Welcome here, sir." Clara cordially says. Derek is amused. He smirks in a friendly style, turning his face to Jaria. "What should I say to these people?" He asks her through his gaze. 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
Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 31: Derek meets her parents
This is her fear but her mother progresses to show her more details, so she believes. "This is what you will know that it's not your first brother is this," she points to the leg. Her late brother had a single black spot on his left leg by the inner side. It was just like a dot and can't be removed. Though she was small then, she can still remember it. She looks at that exact location but can't find anything, slowly her belief starts to come back, she was veiled with the aura of the presence of her late brother. Like a spell cast away, her eyes and mind are open to see her being free in mind. She jumps up on Albert's neck, he had been comforting her. They hug so passionately, same thing with him, he lifts his head to see who really is standing a few meters from them, his lips falls apart. "Derek!" He pauses. "I'm sorry, Mr Dawson!" He knows him mainly by the surname, but people address him by the first name because of the same surname being beared by his grandfather. His grandfat
Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 32: Lovely time with each other

Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 33: Jaria's request
"I just wanted telling you that you are handsome and perfect and I love men like you," her voice comes out in slow motion, by the very nature of it, her honesty in what she is saying comes out clearly."But I told you this isn't the time for relationship. I just needed you to be my secretary, then you will act as my girlfriend just to make my wife jealous anytime she comes to my office for the court proceedings?""I don't want to be in that type of a romantic relationship with you, let's say an intimate platonic relationship is what I need from you.""Hmm," Derek sighs. The advice of his grandfather flashes in his mind, he compares this with what his mind is telling him now. There is a voice deep within, asking him not to feel hesitant in taking Jaria.He sighs again, reflecting deeply on it. He doesn't wants to venture into something that will distract him from being who he wants to be and achieving what he wants to achieve.Derek takes in a deep breath. "I don't detest your request
Son-in-law: The Billionaire's Reign Chapter 34: The chemistry between them
Derek sits back to ponder on this, it's gonna be true what Jaria is telling him, he believes it but reasons what he is gonna do to salvage the situation."What am I gonna do?" He raises his head to ask."I think you will have to make a proper audit of all the workers you have in this establishment, employ expert auditors, they will carry out the work for you. You don't need to stress yourself.""Wow, that's exactly what I'll do upon getting back to the company." He wasn't interested in returning soon but now the urge to go back has set in now. "I can't disappoint Jaria and her parents." He says to himself. He had told them that he would be staying for two days."But I can't go back now?""Yes, till we return. I also want to spend some time with my family. It's been long I saw them and I don't know the next time I'll see them again."Derek agrees to stay one more day with her family and would be leaving after tomorrow. She walks outside with him to join Emily and Albert who will take t

She had heard what he just said. She takes her hand and drapes it round his shoulders, then pulls her head to rest on his arms. She looks pleadingly into his eyes, she thinks Emily also needs help and wants to communicate about this with him."Emily is also grown up and is still working under my parents without having anything to do to earn her own money. I know that's what she is paid to do but fifty dollars a month is nothing to me."Derek gasps. "She's been paid fifty dollars?" He is surprised to hear this."Yeah," Jaria shrugs her shoulders, maintaining a serious face which should let Derek know that she is saying the truth. "My parents don't have enough money to pay her, that's why.""Oh that's bad naturally, I'm not blaming them either. They are trying their best." He heaves heavily. "But what do you think I can do for both of them?" He asks her. Albert is enthusiastic that she is going to mention something which will be really beneficial to him."For Albert, you could give him
