THE SON IN LAW WANTS HIS REVENGE Chapter 36
The invitation sat on the dining table, a polished white card bordered with gold trim—a detail that belied the hostility it carried. Helen Shaw had personally sent it, a rare gesture for someone who treated James with cold disdain. Pamela stared at it, torn between frustration and hesitation. “Why would she invite us now?” she murmured, fiddling with the edge of the card. James sat across from her, quietly sipping his coffee. His sharp eyes never left her face. “Because she wants an audience,” he replied smoothly, setting his mug down. “This isn’t about reconnecting. It’s about reminding everyone who she thinks you married.” Pamela’s shoulders sank. “James, I don’t think we should go. I can’t bear to see them talk down to you again. They” James reached for her hand, his touch warm and steady. “We’ll go.” His voice carried no anger—only calm certainty. “But things will be different this time.” Pamela frowned. “What do you mean?” “I’ve let them misunderstand me for far too long,” J

The Shaw mansion stood like a monument to arrogance, its towering columns and gleaming facade seemingly designed to intimidate anyone who approached. James didn’t blink as he gazed at it. He had entered these doors countless times, always as the man Helen Shaw tolerated out of necessity—never out of respect. That was about to change. Pamela shifted nervously beside him as they approached the grand entrance. The murmurs of laughter and the clinking of glasses spilled out faintly through the windows. She tightened her grip on his arm. “James,” she whispered, glancing up at him. “Promise me you won’t” “I won’t embarrass you,” James said softly, cutting her off before she could finish. His voice was calm, soothing, but there was something steely underneath it that Pamela couldn’t place. “Trust me.” Pamela searched his face for a moment, chewing her bottom lip. He wasn’t the same man who used to stand awkwardly at family gatherings, shrinking under the weight of their ridicule. There

The silence in the Shaw family dining room was suffocating. All eyes were on James as he stood at the far end of the table, the sharp edge of his tone still lingering in the air. Helen’s icy stare pinned him down, but he didn’t falter. For the first time, James wasn’t a man cowering under their judgment—he was a man in control.“James,” George Shaw said, breaking the silence with a condescending chuckle. “What nonsense are you on about now? You’ve had too much to drink.”James didn’t so much as blink. His calm gaze turned toward George, unwavering. “I haven’t had a single drop tonight. And what I’m about to say, Mr. Shaw, will change everything you think you know about me.”A ripple of murmurs spread across the room. Some guests leaned in with curiosity, while others exchanged skeptical glances. Pamela, seated a few steps away, looked torn between awe and uncertainty as she stared at her husband.Helen Shaw, still seated at the head of the table, finally snapped. “Enough with the thea

The Maple Group boardroom had never been more alive. Executives, department heads, and international advisors gathered around the long mahogany table, listening intently as Victor laid out the blueprint for James’s latest initiative. Maps of target regions and digital projections flickered on the screen behind him, displaying key growth metrics and potential market analyses.Victor’s voice carried with a clarity that commanded attention. “We’re looking at markets in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, and South America. These regions are brimming with untapped potential. By establishing a presence now, we position Maple Group as a leader in industries ranging from renewable energy to logistics.”James leaned forward, his expression calm but commanding. “This isn’t just expansion—it’s reinforcement. If Garth or anyone else tries to undermine us, they’ll face resistance on multiple fronts. We won’t just withstand their attacks; we’ll render them irrelevant.”The room fell silent for a momen

James and Victor spent the following weeks jet-setting between continents, meeting with key players in the business world.In Dubai, they secured a partnership with a major logistics company, ensuring Maple Group’s products could be delivered faster and more efficiently. In Singapore, they negotiated with a tech firm to incorporate cutting-edge AI into their operations. And in Germany, they forged an alliance with a prominent automobile manufacturer, opening doors to new ventures.Each deal was a piece of the puzzle, carefully selected to strengthen Maple Group’s foundation.During a meeting in Tokyo, Victor leaned over to James. “You’re playing a masterful game here. Garth and Brandon won’t know what hit them.”James smirked. “Let them plot. Every move they make now will only push us further ahead.The Gulfstream jet landed smoothly on the tarmac of Dubai International Airport.

The sprawling Maple Group headquarters buzzed with activity, reflecting the company’s recent momentum. James Whitmore stepped out of the elevator on the top floor, greeted by a team of department heads awaiting his arrival in the main conference room. After weeks of traveling, securing key international partnerships, it was time to address the home front.As James entered, his commanding presence silenced the room. He took his seat at the head of the table, the city skyline glimmering through the floor-to-ceiling windows behind him.“Ladies and gentlemen,” James began, his tone firm yet energizing, “our international expansion is well underway. But growth abroad means nothing if we can’t fortify our foundation here. This is where the real work begins.”Victor, seated to his right, pulled up a presentation on the large screen. The first slide displayed key performance indicators for Maple Group’s domestic operations. “We’ve analyzed every division,” Victor said, his voice clear and pre

A gentle rain fell over the city, its rhythm soothing against the windows of James Whitmore’s penthouse. For the first time in weeks, the tension at Maple Group seemed to have eased. The newly forged international alliances were beginning to yield results, stabilizing the company’s supply chains and boosting investor confidence. James had spent the day tying up loose ends, ensuring that every department was aligned with the company’s vision. As he stood by the window, a glass of bourbon in hand, James allowed himself a rare moment of reflection. The battles with Brandon, Helen Shaw’s lingering resentment, and Garth’s growing aggression—all of it seemed distant, as if paused by the tranquility of the evening. Victor entered the room, his usually brisk demeanor softened by the quiet atmosphere. “The reports are in,” he said, holding up a tablet. “Our market share has increased by 7% since the Dubai partnership went public. Investors are calling it a turning point.” James turned to

The cold winter sunlight filtered through the office windows as Pamela sat quietly in a corner of James’s office. She had come under the pretense of delivering lunch, but she couldn’t help staying to observe him at work.James stood by his desk, phone pressed to his ear, his voice firm yet calm as he spoke to a supplier in Europe. Despite the mounting pressure of recent challenges, he remained composed, solving problems with a confidence that Pamela couldn’t ignore.She remembered the man she married—timid, unsure, and often dismissed by her parents. That James seemed like a distant memory. The man before her now was decisive, commanding, and, to her surprise, magnetic in a way she had never noticed before.As he ended the call, James turned to her. “Sorry to keep you waiting. Did you want to talk about something?”Pamela hesitated, feeling awkward under his steady gaze. “No, I just thought you might need a break. You’ve been working nonstop.”A small smile tugged at his lips. “There’

A meeting of fates
James sat in his office, the weight of recent battles etched into his posture. The Maple Group was thriving again, but James knew his journey was far from over. The past still held secrets, and his father’s legacy was an enigma he couldn’t ignore.Victor entered the room with a sharp knock. “James, there’s someone you need to meet. He claims to have known your father well. His name is Marcus Sterling.”The name didn’t ring a bell, but James nodded. “Send him in.”A few moments later, an older man, impeccably dressed, entered. His silver hair and sharp eyes spoke of wisdom and experience.“Mr. Sterling,” James began, standing to shake his hand. “Victor mentioned you knew my father.”“Indeed, I did. Your father and I were business partners—silent partners, you might say,” Marcus replied with a slight smirk. “He was a man of vision, much like yourself.”James gestured for him to sit. “Why are you here now?”“Because it’s time you learned the truth about the empire your father built—and t

Chapter 47Helen Shaw’s heels clicked sharply against the marble floor of her living room, her expression tense as she scanned the documents spread across the coffee table. George Shaw sat across from her, his hands clutching a thick envelope containing copies of internal reports from Maple Group—reports that no one outside of James’s inner circle should have access to.“This is it,” Helen said, her voice low but brimming with confidence. “With these, we can deal him a blow he’ll never recover from.”George glanced uneasily at the papers. “Are you sure about this, Helen? If James finds out—”“He won’t find out,” she interrupted, narrowing her eyes. “Do you want Pamela to be stuck with a man like him forever? If we bring Maple Group to its knees, Pamela will finally see reason. She’ll leave him.”George hesitated, but Helen’s determination silenced his doubts. He knew better than to challenge her once she had her mind set on something.Helen continued, her voice growing colder. “We’ll

The confrontation
The air in the Shaw household was heavy with unease. Helen and George sat in the living room, their earlier celebration overshadowed by a growing sense of dread. The fixer, Charles Tully, had gone silent, and no updates had come through.Helen tapped her fingernails against the armrest, her irritation barely concealed. “Where is he? He promised results by now.”George shifted uncomfortably. “Maybe we should lay low for a while, Helen. If James catches wind of this—”“He won’t,” Helen snapped, cutting him off. “Stop worrying. Charles knows what he’s doing. We’re close to finally getting rid of that man.”Just then, the front door opened. Helen and George turned, expecting Pamela, but their faces froze when James stepped inside instead.James closed the door behind him, his movements calm, deliberate. Dressed sharply in a tailored black suit, he exuded an aura of quiet authority that made the tension in the room palpable.“James,” Helen began, her tone tight. “What are you doing here?”

Helen and George Shaw sat at the dining table, tension heavy between them. George’s face was pale as he clutched his phone, the recent call from Garth still fresh in his mind.“He’s furious,” George muttered, his voice shaky. “That bad information cost him millions. If he drops us, we’re finished.”Helen rolled her eyes, pouring herself a glass of wine. “Don’t be so dramatic, George. We just need to dig deeper. James can’t be this invincible.”“And what if we get caught?” George shot back. “Do you think James doesn’t know what we’re up to? He’s not stupid, Helen.”Helen leaned forward, her eyes cold. “Then we don’t get caught. You need to grow a backbone. This isn’t just about us—it’s about protecting Pamela from that man. If we don’t act now, she’ll end up losing everything when James eventually falls.”Unbeknownst to them, Victor was watching from a car parked across the street, his camera trained on the house. Through the windows, he captured the argument, Helen’s animated gestures

Helen Shaw paced the living room, her hands clasped tightly, the tension radiating from her every movement. “We’ve been patient for too long, George. That man has walked all over us, made us dependent on him, and humiliated us at every turn. If Pamela won’t see reason, then we’ll have to act for her sake.”George Shaw, slouched in his favorite armchair with a drink in hand, looked weary. “And what exactly do you propose we do, Helen? He’s not just some small-town businessman. James has resources—more than we can imagine. We can’t take him down easily.”Helen shot him a sharp glare. “Are you really that spineless? Garth has been hounding us to find a weakness in James’s empire, and now we have an opportunity. We just need to give him the right ammunition. Maple Group has vulnerabilities—we just need to find them.”George sighed but nodded reluctantly. “Fine. I’ll reach out to a few of my old contacts, see if there’s any chatter about Maple Group’s internal dealings. But you… You’re clo
