THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW THE POOR HATE THE POORER
During Andrew's access to wealth and power, he concluded that when given little power or opportunity, poor people mostly taunt their peers more than the rich. He was engrossed in his thoughts and unaware when he muttered, "Why did the poor hate the poor so much." "Don't take it personally, Andrew. Just let those fuckers tell us why they framed us up and embarrassed us in public," Jackson mumbled. Brown stepped towards Benedict as the shorter man stepped back. And this made Brown get annoyed and yelled, "Speak up, Benedict." "I... I-." A booming sound of telephone rings sounded on the wall beside Obama, and he picked it up and asked," Who is on the line?" "It's your boss. Have called the other line, but nobody picked it up. What's going on over there?" A voice filled with a heavy baritone sounded from the other side of the line. Brown walked closer, snatched the telephone from Obama's hand and announced, "Some of our guards conspired together with some customers-." "Oh my gosh
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW SOME PEOPLE WERE ALWAYS LUCKY
Since Andrew had warned them not to disturb him, he was left alone until the following morning. As expected, he enjoyed his sleep on the fluffy mattress through the night, and it was the knocking on his door that made him pull himself from the bed, and then drag his feet towards the door. "Who is there?" "A waitress. I am here to prepare your morning coffee. Or did you prefer a cup of tea?" A voice sounded at the other side, and Andrew yawned out loud, stretched himself and yawned again, and then unlatched the door. A young man in a pink T-shirt and black trousers bowed at Andrew and walked inside with his tray. Andrew smiled to welcome him, then gestured to him to place the tray on the table and then let out, "I prefer a cup of coffee, and I want you to attend to my friend in the next room." "I have already served him a cup of tea," the young man answered back and promptly prepared a cup of hot coffee. Andrew sipped the coffee, and let out, "Hmm, this is very nutritious." "Y
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW GOOD FAITH MY FOOT!
The whispering inside Andrew's lodge became muted as soon as he stepped inside. Dressed in a new T-shirt and grey jeans, the young man looked as fresh as a green vegetable as he walked closer, sat on the mattress beside Jackson, grinned and then let out, "So sorry for delaying you." "It's okay, Andrew," Miss Simpson mumbled as she put her phone inside her handbag and then turned towards Andrew and announced, " I have seen the video record of the incident." Andrew sighed and let out, " I would like to see it as well. I wonder what your guards were trying to hide?" "Their crime. Obama was the one that put the ring inside Jackson's bag and then brought it out as evidence," Miss Simpson answered back, and then let out, "There is no need to waste your time seeing it. Just tell me what you want me to do about them." Andrew's eyes darted at Brown, and then at the fat man with a bald head and overgrown moustache, and the memory of 0bama's assault against him flowed back into his mind. "D
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW BOTH OF THEM WERE LOSERS
Jackson was waiting for Andrew beside his shattered car, and his pale face promptly became attractive when he smiled to welcome his friend. "We will need to go by taxi," Andrew gaped at what Jackson's taxi had become, shrugged and announced, "This can't move, and needs to be towed out of here." "I agree. They made a mess of my life-saving asset," Jackson shook his head, and said, "What about eating our breakfast here before we leave, please? Who knows when I will have another chance to eat here." "You can, whenever you want," Andrew answered and then smiled as he patted his friend on his shoulder and let out, "Let me allow you to enjoy yourself. It seemed you enjoyed their food." "Why won't I? The food they cook here is different and not for poor people like us... Let me enjoy it when it lasts." "Enjoy yourself." The two men walked through the grassy land and arrived at the hotel canteen, and the guard at the door quickly removed the sliding glass and then bowed as they stepped
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW HALF A BILLION-DOLLARS BENTLEY
Kourtney smiled crookedly as they stepped into the showroom that was filled with the most exotic of all cars. "As you can see, each brand is separated from the others," Kourtney mumbled, raised his right hand and pointed at the cars arranged beside them, and then let out, "these were Mercedes-Benz over there, followed by Toyota products, Mitsubishi and Volkswagen product... Which among them did you like?" Andrew peeked at the cars, shook his head, and muttered, "None of this. I want something costlier." Kourtney glared at Andrew, bobbed his head gestured to them to follow him, and then let out, "You better buy a car, otherwise, you will be sorry for wasting my time." "Don't you think it's insulting to be abusing your customers?" Andrew asked back. "You are a piece of trash, Andrew. I'm sure my security guards will put sense into that foolish skull of yours," Kourtney mumbled, turned towards Jackson and let out, "and you, Mr Jackson. Did you think someone as poor as this man can a
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW A THIEF AND A SWINDLER
"Good morning, Mr Wilson," Kourtney welcomed his boss with a nod, pointed at Andrew, then at Jackson and mumbled, "These two men came to buy our Bentley with fake or stolen platinum credit cards." Wilson glared at Andrew, back at Kourtney and asked," How did you know the credit card is fake or stolen? Did our machine reject it?" "No," Kourtney answered back, shaking his head and mumbling, "I don't even bother to check if maybe it will work or not." "May I know the reason why you just concluded that these men here were dupers or thieves when you haven't confirmed their transaction?" Wilson asked. "I am friendly with the family of Andrew's wife, and I am sure all their present wealth can't pay for our Bentley," Kourtney answered back, pointed at Jackson and let out, "and this other man is my wife's ex-husband. Poor and miserable... I believe both came here to spy on us, and not to buy any car." "So you conclude it was either stolen or fake because you are familiar with the buyer's f

Babcock hunched over the system in his front and pressed the keyboard buttons for a while, he then looked up and muttered, "A one-time password had been sent to the owner of this card. Kindly verify if you receive any message." "He can't receive any message because the platinum card didn't belong to him," Kourtney announced, smirked and let out, "Why are we wasting time? Let's get these clowns arrested now." "Not yet," Wilson answered back, turned towards Andrew and asked, "Can you verify the account now if the card truly belongs to you." "Sure," Andrew mumbled back, dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out his phone. "Wow!" Wilson exclaimed at the sight of the Thuraya satellite phone. And without being told, he realised the customers in his store were not only rich but from a royal family. "I had verified the one-time password. You can go ahead with the transaction," Andrew said with a grin, then winked at Jackson and whispered," Don't be scared. We will be leaving here
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW BENTLEY FOR A TAXI
The Bentley was driven out of the showroom and parked beside the taxi that brought Andrew and Jackson to Wilson's automobile store. A moment later, both men walked out of the director's office and were followed by Wilson. "This is your car keys. You can also be coming here for its servicing and repairs," Wilson announced, placed the keys in Andrew's hand, and let out, "Kindly advertise my business to your friends and colleagues." "Sure. We will," Andrew mumbled back as he stepped closer to the car. He pressed the button on the key holder, and a beeping tone sounded as the tail light blinked and the door at the driver's side jerked open. Andrew and Jackson had entered several cars in their lives, but none had ever seen the inside of a Bentley. And both gape at the interior of the car with astonishment. "This is beautiful and can't be compared to that iron I was driven before," Jackson announced as saliva drooled from his open mouth. "You are right. This car is made for the royal,

THE HYPOCRISY OF MEN
A year later, Andrew had almost forget about his estranged queen, and only the vacant position of the queen keeps Jasmine's memory fresh in his brain. During the chiefs meeting one late night, the chief chamberlain cleared his throat and muttered, “When is our kingdom having a new queen? It’s over a year since Queen Jasmine left our palace.” “The chief chamberlain just spoke my mind,” An older chief in a white regalia let out. “ As our custom demand, the throne of the queen must not be vacant more than twelve months. We must choose another queen as soon as possible.” Andrew Inhale louder and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. “I can’t just make a random woman my queen. I need to first find a woman that I like, fall in love with her and then choose her. Don’t you think this is a long process that can’t be achieved in a few months.” “We all know this, your highness,” Another chief in a blue regalia and extra large hat mumbled. “We have all think this through and decided to choose Andrea

ACTING ALL SWEET
Jasmine barged into Andrew's chamber one night and met him staring at some family photos. “You don’t bother to check on me since Andrea arrived.”Andrew offered a sardonic smile and gestured to her to come closer.“I’m so sorry. You have been acting cold and making it difficult to talk to you.”Jasmine fixed her eyes on Andrew's face as she stepped closer and stood beside him. “You know why am angry, yet you keep doing the same thing to drive me to anger... Did I do wrong by marrying you?”With an innocent smile pasted on his face, Andrew shakes his head sideways and asked, “What did I do wrong? You have been avoiding me since Andrea arrived in the Palace.”“You know what you did, Andrew. So stop acting all sweet.”“I only knew Andrea’s presence here is not agreeable to you. But as you already know, she is the mother of my heir and I can’t stop her from visiting her only son.”“Oh!” Jasmine exclaimed. “Are you shaming me because I haven’t given you a child or you just hated me?”

A MATTER RELATING TO THE HEART
The legal battle was tougher than Andrew had imagined. But at last, Jackson was given the option of parole only after five years and a commendable behavior. Though it wasn't exactly what Andrew wanted. Yet still, he was glad that he was able to reduce his punishment. A year later, Andrew was attending to some political guests when he was informed of Ajay's arrival in his palace. "Take him to my private chamber. I will be with him in a few hours." He quickly dismissed his guests and rushed to attend to his childhood friend. "What brought you to my palace at this time of the night? I thought you had gone to Arkansas City for the Yuletide holiday." "Yes, I just came back some hours ago," A smile appeared on Ajay's face as he muttered," Andrea is back at the O'Connor's villa." "Oh! Why doesn't she come to me?" "She can't. She knows that you are happily married and she won't like to be a distraction to you or your wife." "Married, yes. But not happily… Do you have her new mobile n

LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH
Jacob was found dead in his room the following morning. As expected, Jackson was arrested for the murder of Teddy. During the interrogation, he refused to mention Andrew's name and insisted it was an accident. Nevertheless, he was found guilty of manslaughter and was sentenced to ten years imprisonment. Though Andrew was happy that he had avenged his father's and grandfather's death, he felt sad that Jackson ended the scapegoat. But because of the sensitivity of the case, he had no choice but to sit and watch the law take its full course. A few days after Jackson's judgment, Andrew was seen gazing absent-mindedly into the sky when he heard some footsteps behind him. He turned and a smile appeared on his face at the sight of the unexpected guests. "Hi, Simpson.""My king!"Andrew stepped closer and held Simpson in a tight embrace. He then picked up his daughter, hugged her and then ruffled Jimmy and Tommy's hair and mumbled, "You guys are growing fast," He turned towards Simpson

THE POISONED RING
Andrew was right. Bad news travels faster than its counterparts. His rumour of death had reached his enemies even before Jackson arrived. Sevreachedmen were seen in a jovial mood as Jackson stepped inside a splashy large room with a blinding light. "Welcome, Jackson. We have heard of the usurper's death, and we realized this is your handwork," Jacob announced as he held Jackson in a tight bear hug. "Now that he is dead, let's see how he wants to wear the crown.""It's my pleasure to serve you, people," Jackson mumbled as he offered his hand for a shake. And he was aware of the poisoned pin as it pricked Jacob's palm. Jacob also feels a light sting and his eyes immediately gawk at the ring on Jackson's finger. "Where is the poisoned ring?" Jacob asked as he released the breath he had been holding. Seeing a different ring on Jackson's finger brought immediate relief to him. "Here… Here it is," Jackson said as he dipped his hand into the pocket of his suit and brought out the deadly

NO PERMANENT ENEMY OR FRIEND IN LIFE
Though Andrew didn't believe Jasmine's explanation. Nevertheless, he decided to let the sleeping dog lie. Yet still, this seemed to bring a bigger hole in their imperfect relationship. And the two of them live like cat and mouse for months. A year later, Andrew was still wondering why he ended up with Jasmine when he was informed of a guest awaiting him. Thinking maybe it was Andrea, he immediately asked if it was a man or a woman, and disappointment could be seen on his face when he was told it was a man. "I can't see him tonight. Take him to the guest quarters until I'm free to attend to him.""Yes, Your Highness. Though he claimed that it was very urgent and begged for your immediate attention.""What is his name?""Ajay O'Connor. He seemed to know you from your days at Arkansas City.""Send him in," Andrew mumbled. He wonders what Ajay wants with him and his curiosity makes him restless until Ajay arrives. The young man was a shadow of himself. His once smooth and shining ski

WHEN THE DESIRABLE IS NOT AVAILABLE
After their first night together, Andrew and Jasmine seemed inseparable. Though their relationship can be termed one-sided, Jasmine appeared to be happy and satisfied, and it looked like Andrew had at last forgotten his lost love. Since the royal chief won't stop disturbing him from getting married, Andrew has no choice but to propose to the excited Jasmine who immediately agrees. In truth, when the desirable is not available, the available becomes the desirable. Six months later, the pair decided to tie the knot. Their marriage was the talk of the town, and a week was declared a public holiday to celebrate the important occasions. During the royal banquet, Andrew was seated among his family and friends in a deep conversation when he noticed a silhouette of a woman who resembled Andrea. "Excuse me, please," Andrew muttered, standing up from his throne and hurried towards the outgoing lady. He ignored all the well-wishers who called out to wish him a happy married life and smiled

HISTORY WITH HIS EXCELLENCY
The sun was already glaring in the sky when Andrew woke up. After having a light meal, he decided to visit his ladies, at least for courtesy's sake. They came from far and near, and sending them home without attending to them seemed very insulting. They were put separately in different rooms, and Andrew knocked on the first door and stepped inside.A tall and shapely lady with a beautiful face stood up from the bed and walked towards him. "Good morning, my lord. I have been waiting for you since yesterday and I am glad that you finally come to visit me."The lady hugged him seductively and dragged him towards the bed in the middle of the room. But Andrew gently removed his hand and then motioned to the lady to sit down, while he sat beside her. "What is your name?""Janet, my lord.""And your profession?" "I'm a barrister and I'm working with a private company." Janet placed her palm on Andrew's chin to caress him, but Andrew held her hand, frowned and shook his head. "Take it eas

REAL BEAUTY LIES BENEATH THE SKIN
Three months later. Andrew was seen walking to and fro in his palace, and the grimace on his face showed his state of mind. His body shivered, and his eyes were cloudy. A red line shows around his eyes and a patch appears on his forehead. After yawning twice, he suddenly whirled towards the men at his back and asked, "Are you telling me she had grown wings and disappeared from the surface of the earth? I have spent millions of dollars to look for her, sent people from one end of the earth to the other side, and the result is always negative." "I'm sorry, my lord," A tall man with a large scar in between his eyes answered back. " I guess she didn't want to be found and had been evading us." "We heard she was in Orlando, and we immediately flew down there. But she must have heard of our arrival and disappeared before we reached her hideout." Andrew's frown deepened as he stared at the men on his front. "Why am I unfortunate to be surrounded by letdown people? I want a result and no
