Son-in-law's Revenge

After 5 years of marriage

 It was pouring rain as a black sedan sped along the soggy streets of the Capital. Inside the car was Matt Reeves, the fifteen-year-old heir to the Reeves Corporation.

 He had just left home during a tearful farewell to his sister Loire, mother Figga, and father Lion when his impoverished training began.

 Every heir to the Reeves family knows that at the age of fifteen they will have to give up all the comforts they've ever known and move to a remote province with the bare minimum their family provides in order for them to survive. first few years. .

 The car stopped outside a dilapidated apartment complex. Matt took the key out of his pocket, four years' rent for apartment 5-E has been paid. Matt put his backpack in and sent the car and driver away.

 Due to the rain, the stairs to the 5th floor were slippery, Matt was very careful when climbing. Apartment 5-E is a small room, it can only fit a small bed, a kitchen area and a table. The room didn't even have a private bathroom, only a shared bathroom on the same floor.

 Matt sighed as he looked at his new home. In addition to this room, his family provided him with a bank card just enough money to last him for two years. Then Matt will be independent.

 The Reeves family started this tradition to ensure that the next generation would value the empire they had built, so that the next heir would not consider the money that would one day be passed down to them as something. apparent.

 Matt's new identity will no longer be Matt Reeves, the eldest son and heir to the Reeves family, but will now be Matt Reeves, an orphan living alone in apartment 5-E, a school attended public school with an older sister who had to work abroad. just to make a living.

 His family and friends are forbidden to help him, they are not to extend any form of help until his impoverished training is over.

 He was alone against the world; for now.

 Thirteen years later, Matt Reeves is married to Jane Scarlett and lives at his wife's house.

 "Matt! I told you to prepare pancakes and bacon for breakfast!" Anne Scarlett, Jane's mother, scolded Matt.

 Jane's family never fully accepted Matt, so Matt cooked and cleaned for them to get some form of approval.

 Matt's wife works in the marketing department of Damien's Inc, the Scarlett family business. Damien's Inc. is a big company, but the Scarlett family is even bigger.

 Jane's father has five other siblings and he is the third son. Although the company made a lot of money, maintaining the lifestyle of such a large family was quite burdensome, and the expansion of Damien's Inc. happens very slowly.

 Jane's parents and the couple mainly rely on her salary to cover daily expenses.

 "I'm sorry mom, but we ran out of bacon so I cooked this instead." Matt's sorry.

 Anne Scarlett looked away and ate the food on the table clearly displeased.

 After breakfast, Matt went up to their room to change and get ready for work. He worked as an assistant at Mor Co., a hidden subsidiary of the Reeves Corporation, his family business.

 After 5 years of marriage, Jane still doesn't know that he is the mysterious heir to the Reeves Corporation.

 Compared to the Reeves Group, Damien's Inc. considered a small fish. Over the years the Reeves Group has hinted that the young heir will return soon, and many families have tried to arrange their daughters with this mysterious man.

 Families don't care if he's ugly, fat, or stupid, all that matters to them is that he's rich, and marrying their daughter to him will instantly increase their wealth. their family.

 "Are you having a hard time today?" Jane asked Matt when he finished dressing.

 "It's good now." Matt shrugged.

 "I told you to stop doing the housework. We have helpers to cook." Jane sighed.

 Matt smiled and looked at Jane. She is the Scarlett family's greatest treasure, the most beautiful of the eight female cousins, but their marriage is not accepted by the Scarlett family.

 "Jane, I did this to make your family accept me a little more." He kissed her lightly on the lips before walking out.

 Jane could do nothing but shake her head.

 Matt drove Jane to work at Damien's Inc. then walked to Mor Co., on the way, his phone started ringing. It was Marco, his father's personal assistant. Matt grins, he already knows what this call is about.

 "Hey Marco." Matt greeted with a cheerful voice.

 "Sir Matt, your father is asking if you're having lunch with him today. You'll be turning 28 in a week." Marco said in a more serious tone.

 "Sure. Where should I go?" Matt asked when he arrived at Mor Co's office.

 "We will send a car away from Mor Co." Matt smiled at the instructions, his father knew he wanted to keep a low profile.

 Matt agreed and dropped the call.

 The rest of the morning passed quickly, and when it was time for lunch, Matt was already waiting for the car to come pick him up. The driver took him to his father's favorite country club in the city. This place is so special that only one hundred families are allowed to become members.

 Upon entering the restaurant, his father immediately saw him and waved with a smile. For the past thirteen years, he had only seen his father once a year, on Christmas Day.

 "Hi dad." Matt greeted with a smile.

 Lion Reeves III, now in his 50s, is a man of bold temperament and one of the top businessmen in the country. However, today he looks very different as he has a big smile on his face and is quite blushing from playing golf all morning with his friends.

 "Matt, it's finally time." Hello Lion. "Finally I can play golf every day and travel with your mom!"

 Matt chuckled. "How's mom and dad?"

 "Hmmmm, she misses you, and your sister. She was very opposed to sending your sister to study abroad, but I told her it was for the best." The older Reeves said with a sad smile.

 "Sir, here are the files you requested." Marco suddenly appeared, giving Lion Reeves a laptop.

 "Oh yes." Lion took the laptop from Marco and gave it to Matt. "In here are all the files and related information about the Reeves Group. Of course we won't suddenly hand over the whole business to you. We will start small, you will handle it. Mor Co. first."

 "Will you introduce me to everyone?" Matt asked.

 "I think you'll like that we didn't." Lion grinned at his son. "Let's just hold a small welcome back party just for you at home, family and close friends. We can announce to the public that Mor Co. will be officially in your hands. On papers, Matt Reeves will be transferred as assistant to Mor the Chairman of Co.

 "I like the idea, Father." Matt nodded and said.

 "Great. Marco, call Camilla and Ian over." Matt's father gave the order.

 Just then a young man and woman approached. Seeing Matt was a surprise to them, as as fellow assistants at Mor Co., they knew each other, in fact Ian was Matt's best friend at Mor Co.

 "I'm sure you guys know each other. Assistant Camilla and Assistant Ian, this is my son Matt Reeves, heir to the Reeves Corporation and your new boss." Lion said.

 "Camilla, Ian, I want to keep my identity private. I will continue to be Matt in public and in the company." Matt spoke with much authority.

 "I'll see you again on your birthday, son." said Lion as he got up to leave, followed by Marco.

 Matt was now alone with Camilla and Ian.

 “Please sit down.” Matt in command.

 Camilla and Ian obeyed. Matt grinned.

 t

 "I'm still the same person."

 “W-you are the heir to the Reeves Corporation?” Ian tried to stutter.

 "Right. And I don't want anyone at Mor Co. Discovered that. If I had known Marco's effectiveness by the time we got back to the office, my appointment as assistant to President Mor Co. Will be announced. At the same time, all registered business of Mor Co. Will be transferred to my name. All directors will be informed of this and no one else. "

 Camilla and Ian nodded.

 “For now, Ian, please schedule a meeting tomorrow morning with all the directors. Ask them to prepare a report on the current state of their department as well as how well their goals have been achieved this year. I expect this meeting to last all morning. “Ian quickly jotted down notes.

 “Camilla, I would like sales and marketing to generate a report detailing where we stand against our competitors as well as details about our biggest competitors. Ask them to suggest other opportunities for us to expand. I plan to do Mor Co., the largest phone manufacturer in the country in the future. "

 Matt's instructions are clear and easy to follow. Camilla and Ian are recognized as top talents even among other employees at Reeves Group, which came as a surprise to everyone when three years ago they were both transferred from the main company to the company. child.

 From the very beginning, Camilla and Ian knew they were being groomed to become assistants to the future President of the Reeves Corporation.

 “Go back.” Matt said as he stood.

 “Ced- I mean Mr. Matt, we arranged a car to take us home,” Ian said.

 "OK. Tell the driver to drop us off one block from the office so no one can see us.”

 “Should we come together, sir?” Camilla asked.

 "Right. It can be said that we have bonded together like new teammates.” Matt suggested.

 “Sir, we are not sure about your preferences in decoration or layout, so we still need to discuss the layout of your office.” Camilla explained.

 “Let's discuss it tomorrow afternoon after the morning meeting. Now, the current setup will be done.”

 While Matt and his assistants were meeting, Marco completed the transfer of the majority stake in Mor Co. For Matt.

 80% is in his name while the balance is distributed among the Reeves family. At the same time, all directors were informed that Matt was the heir to the Reeves Corporation and that they had to keep their mouths shut on the matter.

 On the ride back to Mor Co., Matt's phone started to ring, it was his mother.

 "Mommy?" Matt asked.

 "You and your father had lunch without telling me?" Matt's mother was furious.

 "Mom, I miss you." Matt said in the sweetest voice possible.

 “That won't work. Anyway, your dad said you're going to celebrate your birthday with us this year! That's great. Will you bring your wife?" Figga Reeves is always straight to the point with her questions never minding anything with her children.

 "Not yet, mother. I am not ready.” Matt confessed.

 "OK. I look forward to meeting her.” Figga said in a sad voice.

 "Next time, talk to me, mom. I'll be at the office soon." Matt said goodbye to his mother.

 At Mor Co., news spread quickly. His colleagues were quick to congratulate Matt on his promotion to Assistant to the President.

 Ian helped him tidy up his desk and put his stuff on the fake desk at the top floor of the president's office.

 Upon arrival, he was greeted by the directors and former president of Mor Co., Mattias Gram.

 “Mr Reeves, it is an honor to work for you. Who would have known that such an outstanding young man had worked in our ranks for the past five years.” Mattias greets him, Mattias is actually a little worried that he might have treated Matt Reeves badly in the past.

 “Mattias, I know you did your best for the company all these years, where did my father decide to move you?” Matt asked.

 “Your father offered me a generous position in the parent company. Please feel free to contact me if you need any assistance with Mor Co.”

 The rest of the directors came forward to greet him. When their little reception is over, Matt realizes that he's late, and Jane's mother will be furious.
