The Billionaire Son-in-law 192. The Discovery.
Ivy was alone, again. Ever since her accident, she was always indoors. She couldn't go to work, neither could she go for her occasional strolls. She really hated being confined to that stupid chair.Doctor Julie said she was getting better, but she didn't feel any different. Sure she was starting to regain her sense of feeling in her legs, but they were still too heavy for her to move.She felt so helpless.She heard her mother's usual three knocks on the door and she went to open the door. "My Darling, are you okay? How's the fever?""Better mother." The reason for her obvious concern was because Ivy had called her mother earlier that she was sick and she needed her mother's care. "Thank you for coming so early." She said, even though her mother wasn't really early. She had called her by seven thirty, before Lucas left for work. And she was only arriving, nearly four hours later."Anything for you my dear." She dropped her bag on the center table as she settled on the couch. "I broug
The Billionaire Son-in-law 193. Help
After he narrated his encounter with Mike to Ivy, she didn't say anything. Instead she just looked at a loss for words. He couldn't blame her, he was still a bit shocked himself.After a few seconds, she finally asked. "Are you serious about what you just said?" "It's not exactly something I would lie about.""You should fire him then! Today it's a poisoned coffee, tomorrow it could be a donut and the next, he's pointing a fucking gun at your head! You have to do something about him while you still can."Ivy was right, he would have to take precautionary measures… but what could he do? He couldn't trust Grover anymore and he couldn't report to the police based on his instincts alone… he needed to have solid proof against him."What about detective Jones?" Ivy suggested. "I mean he's very good at his job and I'm sure he can be of help to us.""Yes he is, but I but I met him through Grover. I don't know if I can trust him.""I know, and it's very normal to be skeptical but I'm afraid w
The Billionaire Son-in-law 194. Confrontation.
"Mother, what are you doing here?" Ivy definitely wasn't expecting her mother to still be around. "Icy, we had an agreement and you just ruined our plans selfishly.""It wasn't out of selfishness mother, Lucas—""I knew it. I knew that imbecile would have something to do with it.""Mother, please calm down. I know you're bummed about the trip, I am too but I had to stay back to care for my husband.""Your so- called husband that couldn't support you going on a vacation with your family? What kind of husband is that?""Mother, we can reschedule for the trip, and this time Lucas would even come with us. But for now, there are a lot of things that need to be attended to.""Like what?""You don't need to know, all you need to know is that we're going through a rough patch at the moment. We'll be sure to let you know once everything has been cleared up. Now I don't mean to be rude but…" she didn't complete the sentence, instead she just pointed at the door."You're… walking… me out? Why d
The Billionaire Son-in-law 195. Detective Jones

He had a mountain of files on his desk, most of which were related to the Williams and Mochi case and yet something just didn't add up. The more he looked into their case, the more it threatened to drive him crazy.So far, he had been able to deduct a couple of things. Blanche, Milo and Festus were somehow connected to the untimely death of Lucas's parents.Blanche decided to give Lucas the beta blockers to prevent him from remembering his luxurious childhood. So definitely, she gained something from his parent's unfortunate demise.Milo could be responsible for the death of his former colleague who also happened to be an acquaintance of the late Mr Williams.But there were still a lot of loose ends. First, what was the motive behind killing Lucas's family? If truly it was to acquire their wealth, why didn't they just kill Grover and Lucas himself as well? Then Grover claimed to be Lucas's p

The Billionaire Son-in-law 198. Altercation
Detective Jones sat in his small- scaled living room. He had just one two seater sofa and a little round table in the center of the room. He was still a bachelor and his pay wasn't exactly extravagant so his properties were modest in size, he rarely had any guests and he didn't have any family that paid him a visit so it was always just him.He had a cup of coffee in his hands but he couldn't drink it anymore because it had gone cold. That would make it the third cup that had gone to waste. He stared distastefully at the liquid before dropping it with the other two mugs that laid side by side on the table.He was too bothered to drink coffee… and that rarely ever happened.He had always taken his job seriously and being the kind of police man that he was, he never cared about the risks or dangers that came with it, he was always diligent with his work and it usually paid off.But this time it was different, all the previous assignments he had tackled, he had never really being person

Just lay low until I tell you what to do.""If you can just give me one more chance, you'll see that–""Are you questioning my order?" He asked, his tone bold and menacing."No sir, I would never.
