The Billionaire Son-in-law 106. Suspects.
In life, it is said that you can learn to grow stronger in any storm, you can learn how to turn disadvantage into advantage, and that will be your 'turning straw into gold' moment. But it was challenging, so very challenging. Ivy had no idea how she was supposed to do that, she didn't even know where she could start from. Her mornings were filled with tears from watching her husbad that had been put on life support, and her evenings were crying herself to sleep, praying for a miracle to happen.She knew she was supposed to be stromg, for him, for their son, for their family but…it was unbelievably difficult. Seeing someone you love dearly in a difficult situation was bound to break you.That day was no different, she had woken up early, and after checking on her husband, she then proceeded in counting the hours until nightfall.The only difference this day had was rain.The downpour was so heavy that to be caught unawares in it meant being drenched to the skin. Each drop was as large
The Billionaire Son-in-law 107. Resolution.
Choices.Always difficult to make, especially if that choice meant going against the very thing you stand for. As that song says, it's not what you do, it's the way that you do it - that your intentions and thoughts are infused with love and the determination to get things right - that gets results.Decisions should come from your sense of empathy and creative perspective taking, combined with logic and grounded in reality. For when we make choices this way, they are better choices, ones that belong in the normal world we kige in.He wished it was that easy for him.He was given an opportunity to become his dream self, he would have a house-his own house- and he would have a company of his own. Who would turn down such an offer?He had given it many thoughts and there only seemed to be two results. Do what was best for he and his family, or what was best for Lucas…and he usually ended up in the same answer. "Sometimes it was good to be selfish."After deliberating it for almost a week
The Billionaire Son-in-law 108. New Suspect?
FLASHBACK.Sixteen years ago, James Williams sat at a local bar with his long time friend and business partner."You can't be serious James, this is quite unfair to me.""But any more interest you get will be rather unfair to me.""Can't you do this much for me? We are friends after all.""I can not displease myself because of our relationship. I'm giving you a whole thirty percent profit because we are friends.""Can't we just make it an equal fifty?""No Festus, you know we can't do that. Okay, how about this…why don't I add an extra five percent on it? Hmm? How does that sound?""So that'll be thirty five?""It is a good deal Festus.""For you maybe.""To be fair, I did use my money to execute this contract we're talking about here.""But I introduced the contract to you!.""...and that is why I am offering you thirty five percent profit from it. This is a very generous offer Festus, do not throw it away.""Why are you insisting on that thirty five percent? That's petty of you.""

"So, Chuck said you told him to tell me that Mike was acting strange. Could you explain more on that?""Yes well, first he stopped spending time at the hospital. Before, Mike and Avery could be with me all day, and they always visited daily.Avery would come in the morning to take Desmond-my son-and bring him back in the afternoon…it was our daily routine. But now, she doesn't even show up at all.""At all.""Yeah. And Mike's visitation was cut down to half, he only shows up like twice a week or so and whenever he did, he never spent more than five minutes.""Hmm…is that so?""Yeah.""Okay, I'll keep an eye on him as well.""Okay, thanks.""You're welcome. Have you noticed any…strange visitors lately?""Hmm…no, not that I can think of.""Okay, just be at alert.""Okay."★★★"Hello Mrs Williams."

The Billionaire Son-in-law 110. Family.
Family. Your blood. Your clan. Your genre. Your household. Your kindred.People have many, many names for the word 'family' but yet, it felt like they hardly knew what it meant.People walk around daily using the word freely, calling people family only to still end up betraying them or hurting them. A family is supposed to be your home, your comfort zone. A place where you never have to re-earn your spot at the table, a place where once you've been accepted, you are supposed to be protected, to be kept safe, forever, no matter what.Ivy wished her family was like that.Ivy's family was the complete opposite of your typical family. Ever since Ivy was younger, she never really experienced the joy of being in a family. All through her education, it was just her and Peter, they went to school together, they went back home together. They went to bed together, they woke up together. Even when she got her first period, Lucas was the one who helped her through it.Now she was basically a gr

FLASHBACK.The Mochi residence, thirteen years ago."Ivy dear, Lucas come here."The duo left their movie and ran eagerly to Blanche who sat at the dining. "Here you go." She handed them their usual medication which they didn't hesitate to use."Mother," Ivy started after she swallowed the pill. "Why do we have to use this pill? Are we sick?""No my darling, you're not sick. This is just supplements to make you stronger and healthier. They're called multivitamins.""Ohh…but what about Peter, doesn't he need to be stronger?""Peter is still young, his body isn't strong enough to withstand the drug.""Oh okay.""Mother, why do I always take extra? Am I sick?" Lucas had always wondered why he had to use two pills and Ivy just used one."Yes, your filthy parents didn't take care of you because they were poor, and now the responsibility has unfortunately fallen on my shoulders."Lucas still wasn't satisfied with his foster mom's explanation because he didn't remember his parents being poor

The case of the Mochis and the Williams was a very complicated one. The more he dived deeper into it, the more tangled it kept getting.At first he thought the hatred Blanche Mochi had towards Lucas was just a simple rich woman thing. He thought it was just some rich woman who harbored hatred for a poor guy going near hee daughter, because something like that was very common with wealthy folks.He didn't understand the way some people think. Just because someone was poor, they would isolate them and treated them like they're not humans. When he was younger, he was also a victim of such treatment. His dad was a low paid officer and his mom worked a cafe, as a cleaning lady.He was the main subject of bully for all the rich kids at his school and his neighborhood, and he thought they treated him that way because they were kids, maybe they were immature.
