2024-04-10 02:45:54"William! If you dare to return home today, I'll kill you with my bare hands" The raging voice of a woman sounded from the other end of the phone and the harshness of her tone could be felt.
William stood there with his phone and remained silent, listening to her screaming voice, "I asked you to wash all the toilets and dishes in the house but you have become bold enough to disrespect me"
"I had to go to work. Mother-in-law..." He tried to speak but she interrupted him harshly.
"How dare you call me mother? I'm not your mother-in-law. I don't accept you into the Wilson family. You're only the trash whom my daughter has been forced to marry and stay with. You must agree to divorce my daughter or I'll make your already miserable life more miserable, you trash-picking loser! "
William was already used to this daily confrontation but today, he didn't expect her to go this extreme and insult him.
The Old Master Wilson had been responsible for arranging the marriage between his granddaughter and William, and no one could challenge him because of the ultimate power he had as the head of the Wilson family.
Now that the old man lay sick in the hospital, his in-laws are trying their best to frustrate William and force him to divorce without the knowledge of the head.
William is not surprised by all of this.
They have always been cold to him and referred to him as the trash of the family. For five years, he has been a live-in son-in-law who did all the cooking and chores in the house until he managed to get a job as a garbage collector.Still, they didn't see him as significant.
His wife, Tracey, was one of the five eminent beauties in all of New Spring City and they wanted her to be married to one of the formidable tycoons in the country. She was a beauty that was desired by business owners who were worth billions of dollars and even had numerous assets in their names.Such an engagement will cause the Wilson family to leap to the top of the social ladder and they would become one of the most significant power players in the City, but they didn't expect the old head of the family to tie Tracey to a nobody like William.
He had appeared out of nowhere with no background and offered a little help to the Wilson family five years ago.No one understood why an intelligent man like Master Wilson would make such a terrible mistake.
Was he trying to repay William's help by giving out his granddaughter? All efforts to make him change his mind all these years have proved futile.He sighed dejectedly and said, "I love my wife very much. I've done everything for her and will remain the best man in her life"
"Is that so? Whatever...Come home immediately, we have a guest and I need you to cook for him, and serve him "
William's brow furrowed slightly because he was surprised at how calm she had suddenly become.His Mother-in-law was a difficult woman to reason with." A guest? Is the Father-in-law back? "
" Don't ask me questions. Get back immediately! " William heard a few beeps and realized she had hung up the call on him.
He was planning to leave for home already so he didn't think much about her demand and drove his garbage truck away.
With a smile on his face, he glanced at the bunch of cream-colored sunflowers on the seat beside him.
He had saved up his salary since five years ago for this day and endured the ridicule from his wife's family.He tried calling his wife to tell her about the surprise he got for her birthday but she wasn't taking his calls.
"Hey Tracey, I've not been able to take care of you since we got married but today I bought something exquisite for your birthday. I'll meet you at home" William sent a voice note to her.It was impossible to hide his excitement as he sang with a loud voice and occasionally checked to see if his wife had replied.
"She must be busy" He assumed.William was supposed to drive to the landfill site where he usually disposed of the waste from the garbage truck but went home instead because he was worried about his wife.
He tried calling Tracey again but it wasn't going through anymore.Could she have encountered a problem at work?
She should be back home already since today was her birthday and the rest of the family would be celebrating with her.He arrived at the Wilson's villa and was surprised to see the Rolls-Royce Phantom parked in the front of the building.
This made his brows furrow because no Wilson had this brand of vehicle except there was a rich guest around.His Mother-in-law informed him already and he believed it was his father-in-law who had been away for a while.William hurried into the foyer of the building and was welcomed by the loud laughter and chatter.
He was approaching the great room in the villa when he heard the masculine voice of a man saying, "... it's worth more than what your useless husband makes in a lifetime. I bid and got this Crimson Scarlet at an underground auction for 10 million just to show my love for T"This made William enter quickly into the living room and was shocked by what he saw.
His eyes turned dark in anger and he tightened his fist uncontrollably. This can't be.Tracey was smiling sheepishly under the speech of the man in Armani suit who had his hand wrapped around her slender waist.
His mother-in-law was present in the room with them and there was also the butler of the family who was standing by.Who is this man who dares to hold his wife this way?
"You! Let go of her now!" William roared madly as he charged forward.
They all turned in his direction and there was a look of shock on the face of Tracey.
She panicked but demanded, "William, what are you doing here?"He noticed that she didn't break out of the man and this made his heart quake."What am I doing here? This is our house. Who is this man? What is he doing here" The moment William asked this question, the mysterious man audaciously pulled Tracey closer to himself and placed a kiss on her forehead.
Such audacity!
William rushed to attack him but Tracey was quick to move and protect the man with her body, forcing him to stop abruptly.
Staring fearlessly at William, she said, "William, let us get a divorce"

William gasped in surprise and took a step back."What did you say?"He was no longer sure if he was hearing this well.Her face twitched uncontrollably and she snapped at him, "Are you deaf?""Wifey, what are you saying?""Don't dare call me that nonsense! ," She yelled and glared dangerously at him, "I'm not your wife. Do you even think you deserve to call me that? If not for grandfather, do you think I'll be associated with a loser like you?""We're getting a divorce and that's final"His Mother-in-law puffed her chest and said in disdain, "Now, you have heard it from my daughter. You must agree to divorce, William. She has a bright future and cannot waste it with a loser like you. Old Master Wilson is old and has become short-sighted"William had a questioning gaze as he looked straight at Tracey who was standing in front of him.All these years, she hadn't yielded to the pressure of her family and he had gotten comfortable.Was this because of the presence of Old Master Wilson at

William turned around and started walking away before the butler could get to him. His Mother-in-law was still ranting but he was no longer listening because his heart was broken from the betrayal of Tracey. How could she do this to him when he had never hurt her before? He even forgot to bring her the Radiant Monarch Flower but it doesn't matter anymore. The diamond necklace she was now wearing was valued at 10 million according to that rich man whom she had chosen instead of him. Only if she knew that he could get her one that is ten times that value and not bulge about it. "I've not always been a loser, Tracey...."William got into his garbage truck and drove to the landfill site to dispose of the waste, and of course, clear his head. He couldn't stop thinking about Tracey's action and her demand to get a divorce. She didn't even feel remorseful. He arrived at the site and got down from the truck when two Maybach vehicles drove roughly into the site and six men in black su

William retreated the phone with a sigh and dropped his head defeatedly. "Can you hear that? He is such an idiot!" "Trillions? Is this guy mad?" "Maybe he thinks he can trick someone into falling for that nonsense" "Or maybe he thinks he is a movie" Side talks sipped into William's ears and he lifted to him to realize the many eyes digging into his flesh. What? Did he speak so loud and attract the attention of people? "I saw him drive that garbage truck here," Another woman said, pointing a finger at William whose face was now red. "Look at how he is dressed. He is a trash picker. I know him "" That's right, I knew it, he was familiar. My grandfather usually gives him tips " Someone announced from behind and a few of them giggled.

Rose dared to not delay as she pulled out the black card and handed it over to William with the slight bow of her head. Her fingers fidgeted as she did and she glanced in the direction of her boss, hoping he would come to her rescue. There was a fierce look on Grey's face instead. He scolded her, "Rose, what did you do?" Somehow, he knew she had done something wrong. Young Master William knew the right place to insert his black card.

A heavy steel door creaked open, followed by the slow sound of wheels rolling across the floor.The dim bulb overhead the room flickered. Harry Snow wheeled himself inside, his expression void of emotion.At the center of the room sat Tracey Wilson, tied securely to a chair, her wrists and ankles bound tightly.Her once high-class clothes were crumpled, her hair tangled, and her face was marked with dried tears.The moment she saw Harry, muffled groans came from her throat as she chewed against the restraints over her mouth. Her body trembled. Harry watched her struggle. Then, without a word, he leaned forward and yanked the gag loose."Help! Help me! Something please, you have to help me! "Her scream echoed in the small room, filled with desperation.Harry didn’t even flinch. Instead, he calmly raised a gun, pointing the barrel straight at her forehead. His voice was low, almost as if he was bored."If you keep screaming like a mad dog, then I’ll put you down like one"Tracey

Elizabeth's loud voice rang out as she threw accusations in William’s direction.“You still refuse to admit it, don’t you?!” she spat out disdainfully, her eyes red with fury, “What did you do to my daughter, William? Where is my Tracey?”Natalie stood beside her, shaking, “I knew it! You're good for nothing trash picking Bastard; you're a monster! First my lovely niece, Anna, now Tracey! Are you so twisted that you’d hurt the women in our family just because we don't want to give you money?”Peter took a threatening step forward but was still scared of William, “You better hurry up and start talking before we make you talk!”The Wilsons all appeared to have their own versions of what had happened, none of them appear to even be considering that William himself was still piecing the truth together.But William.

264: The ex-son-in-law
William Miller stepped out of his car and faced the grand entrance of the Wilson residence. The towering gates, the stone pathway, and the excess decorations all remained the same, but everything about this place now felt distant, like a chapter he had closed. As he stood there, something unexpected stirred within him. Memories flooded back to the early days of his marriage when Tracey had treated him with at least some warmth. Anna, too, had once been kind, often sneaking him food when her mother and aunt deliberately starved him. But those days had vanished, replaced by ridicule, humiliation, and, ultimately, betrayal. Tracey had chosen another man over him; a man who obviously didn’t love her but merely sought to use her. Yet, she was too blinded by wealth to see it. William exhaled sharply, his gaze turning cold. Pushing open the doors, he walked in. The moment Elizabeth Wilson laid eyes on him, her expression twisted into one of disgust. Sitting on a luxurious couc

The warm glow of the chandeliers illuminated the entrance, and as she made her way inside, she was immediately greeted by the familiar voice of her sister . "You're finally back!" Anna rushed forward, excitement in her eyes. Without wasting a second, she grinned mischievously "Did you come to tell me about brother-in-law? Dad told me already"Amelia's steps faltered, and she shot her younger sister a glare, "Anna, how many times do I have to tell you? Stop calling him that""But why?" Anna crossed her arms stubbornly "Aren’t you going to marry him in the future?"Amelia opened her mouth to respond but found herself at a loss for words. Marry William? She had never really put thought into it. What started as a pretend relationship to keep her family off her back had somehow shi
262: A Desperate Call For Help
Harry Snow sat motionless in his wheelchair, his fingers trembling against his phone screen, scrolling through his contact list. He had to be wrong. There had to be a way out of this. Someone had to help him.His first call went to an old family connection, someone his father had worked with in the past. The line rang twice before a familiar voice answered."Harry? How are you—""I need your help," Harry cut in, his voice low but firm. "My family… they’re gone. Something happened, and I need—""Stop right there." The man's tone turned sharp. "Don't ever call me again. Do you have any idea what kind of force wiped out your family? If I even speak to you for too long, my own family could be next"Harry’s stomach twisted, "You—You can’t be serious. You—""Forget that I exist, Harry"The call ended.Harry gritted his teeth, anger pushing past his fear.

His head throbbed, and when he tried to move, a tight bandage around his forehead reminded him of his injuries.He turned his head slightly, only to see Tracey Wilson seated beside the bed, her expression filled with worrisome concern. She noticed his movement and leaned forward in excitement. "You're awake," Her voice was soft with a hint of relief, "What happened to you? I found you unconscious in my study. There was no one around to help me take you to the hospital, so I did what I could"Harry barely acknowledged her words. His mind was still sluggish, but one thought clawed its way through the fog of his mind, his family. Ignoring the dizziness that came with his sudden movement, he reached for his phone on the nightstand and quickly dialed his father’s number.No response.He redialed. The call rang and rang before switching to voicemail.Frowning, he tried his mother next.Same result. Then his unc

Meanwhile, Evelyn sat in her dimly lit room, her fingers nervously tapping against the edge of her laptop. With a deep breath, she pressed the button to connect to the video call. The screen flickered momentarily before the familiar, haggard face of Old Master Miller appeared. His eyes were clouded with anger. "Why haven't you returned home, Evelyn?" His voice was sharp, almost accusing, the calm demeanor he once held now gone, "You’ve ignored my orders, and now you're putting yourself at risk. I gave you clear instructions!"Evelyn’s heart sank, the weight of his anger pressing down on her. "Grandfather, I didn’t ignore you. I just... I had to make sure William was safe. I couldn’t leave until I knew he was alright""You should have come back immediately!" Old Master Miller interrupted, his voice filled with frustration. "You’re not trained for this, Evelyn.

259: Where Is Harry Snow?
He took a step forward, his voice calm but filled with authority. “Tell me where Harry Snow is.”The room fell into a deeper silence.. The Snow family members exchanged glances, their eyes filled with fear and defiance. None of them dared to meet William’s gaze, and the cold weight of their silence was deafening. It was clear they had already chosen their path. They would never reveal the location of Harry, no matter the cost.William's expression remained stoic, but he repeated the question, his voice firmer this time. “Where is Harry Snow?”For a long moment, there was no response. Not a word. Not a whisper.And then, one by one, the Snow family members bowed their heads in unison, lowering themselves to the floor. It was a gesture of submissionbut one filled with absolute resolve. They had chosen to die rather than betray their heir.“We would rather die than reveal his location,” one of the elders said quietly, his voice trembling with both fear and pride.William’s eyes narrowe

The tense atmosphere in the grand chamber of the Snow villa grew even heavier as Mark Snow, still reeling from the financial devastation William had just described, began to bark orders at the Border Generals. His eyes were wild with panic, his mind grasping for any thread of hope.“Kill him! Don’t just stand there!” Mark shouted, his voice sharp with desperation.The Border Generals, who had been silent until now, exchanged brief, unreadable glances. Their stoic expressions remained unmoved, yet there was an unmistakable hesitation in their demeanor. They were seasoned warriors, accustomed to life-or-death situations, but something in William’s calm, controlled presence had thrown them off balance.William stood at the center of the room, his hands resting behind him. His eyes, dark and unyielding, never left Mark Snow’s face.But before the situation could escalate any further, the door to the chamber flew open with a sudden, thunderous crash.All heads turned in unison as a tal
