The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 145: Operational Changes
“HELLO, MASTER? Young master Damian accepted the project,” Poppy reported with a smile on her face. “Thank you for permitting me to let Damian handle the project. This project will be overwhelming at some point, but I believe this will push him out of his comfort zone.”“I understand, and I trust your vision. Just make sure to help him once he has a hard time,” Veron replied, his tone authoritative. “Yes, young master.”Veron ended the call and leaned on his chair. The new project Damian needed to handle wasn’t a part of his plan, but it helped Veron to distract Damian from the dangerous thing he was doing—Finding a person he should never have been involved with in the first place.“Focus on your work, son, and leave everything dangerous to me,” Veron muttered, his gaze fixated on the wall. “I never thought that they would go outside Russia and transfer here.”The Ferremento family just doesn’t have a huge conglomerate, but they also had one of the influential mafia as well. With that
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 146: Skill-Based Layoff
AFTER THEIR conversation, Damian went back to his cubicle. He told his team that they would have their first meeting after doing the first step he needed to take.It was to communicate with Julian, the manufacturing department’s manager.‘The summary Poppy gave me earlier helped me a lot to know all the things I need to do,’ said Damian at the back of his mind. ‘But some things are easier said than done.’Despite his nervousness, Damian set up an appointment with Julian within the day, to which the latter responded yes.After that, he didn’t waste any time as he went to the manufacturing department, specifically in Julian’s office.“Good afternoon,” Damian greeted in a cold yet polite tone. “I am Damian Smith, the Internal Communications Manager. Nice to meet you.”Damian extended his arm toward Julian, but the latter just remained seated, staring at Damian’s hand.After a few seconds, Damian placed his hands back in his pocket, knowing that Julian didn’t like his presence.“I heard t
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 147: Town Hall Meeting
DAMIAN WAS usually calm and composed. No matter how much he was being mocked and ridiculed by the people around him, he never faltered.But now, it is different.“Fucking bastard,” Damian muttered as he forcefully sat in his cubicle, placing his cheeks onto his palms. “That person shouldn’t be a manager in the first place. He is a bastard for giving a shitty suggestion like that.”When he was a teenager, Damian had worked in different industries just to sustain their expenses. It was the hardest thing he experienced, and he didn’t want other people to face the same fate.“Is there any problem, Sir Damian?” asked Lily in a worried tone, seeing how frustrated Damian was. “Did something happen in your appointment with Sir Julian?”“Nothing.” Damian shook his head.“That is a lie, isn’t it?” Lily sighed, her gaze fixated on Damian. “It isn’t hidden to everyone here how vicious Sir Julian is, especially when it comes to work that involves the manufacturing department. It will be better if
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 148: Employee Resistance
“I WILL be the one to help you.”Everyone looked at Damian with shock registered in their expressions upon hearing Damian’s answer. Even Mia let go of the ballpen she was holding as it fell on the floor.“What’s with the shocked reaction?” Damian asked, his brows furrowing.“Sir, the town meetings are usually done by coordinators like Gabriel for a reason. It was because once the employees know that a manager will be at the town meeting, everything will be in ruckus,” Lily informed him. “It could be dangerous for you, Sir.”“Hmm…Then it means that I should attend.”“Sir?” Lily asked in disbelief, blinking her eyes twice.“If the employees can only express their feelings and concerns if a manager will attend, then it means that I should be there,” Damian explained to them. “Aside from communicating the changes and the positive impact on them, I also wanted to know their feedback and concerns. It will help us in making this project successful.”No one understood Damian’s decision at tha
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 149: Releasing Frustration
HOLDING a raw egg in their hands, which they took from the basket, Abigail and the other employees threw the eggs in Damian's direction simultaneously, which shocked Damian.“You are acting like you know our pain even if you don’t! What a worthless manager you are!” one of them shouted as she threw a raw egg on Damian’s face. “Get lost!”The eggshell broke in Damian’s forehead, causing it to scatter on his face, down to his neck. Damian looked like a mess, yet he couldn’t find anywhere to run. He was surrounded by the employees, ensuring that he wouldn’t be able to escape.“Shit! Stop it!” exclaimed Gabriel in a frustrated tone as he went to Abigail, who was now in the corner after throwing an egg, being a spectator. “What are you doing, Abigail?!”Her brows furrowed. “Why? You told me that I can do and ask anything once the presentation ends!” “But I didn’t mean that you can disrespect our manager like this!” Gabriel retorted, his voice laced with frustration.“Disrespect?” Abigail
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 150: Empathy
“IT MUST have been hard for all of you,” Damian said, his tone and expression laced with worry as he stared at Abigail. “Are you okay now? Are you done releasing all the frustration and anger you had inside your heart?”“What?” Abigail asked, frowning, but fear was evident in her eyes. “Are you—are you mocking us?” she added, her voice shaking a bit.However, Damian shook his head. “I’m not. I’m asking you this because it seems like you have held all these negative emotions inside you for a long time.”Abigail went silent as she avoided Damian’s gaze. He was right. Violence is the only thing they could do for the injustice the manufacturing department had toward them, being laid off even without a warning.“I’m not saying this to make you feel pitiful, but I understand what you are going through…” Damian said, holding both of Abigail’s hands. It was rough and full of scars. “We may not know what steps to take right now, nor we don’t know how to make Julian retract his decision…But we
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 151: Someone Reported It
OUTSIDE THE town hall, Damian saw a commotion wherein Abigail and her colleagues were blocked by tons of security guards. The security guards looked intimidating and dangerous, causing Abigail’s people to be afraid.However, Abigail remained standing in front of them, protecting her colleagues.“All of you must come with us,” Clark, the team leader, said in a baritone. “If you will come with us with initiative, then I can promise that no one will be harmed.”“I will come with you without any complaints. Why not?” Abigail said, raising an eyebrow. “But don’t involve anyone with this. I’m the leader of this group in the manufacturing department. Whatever they did wrong will be my responsibility.”“Hah. Should I give you a medal for your sense of responsibility?” Clark asked sarcastically, looking at Abigail with contempt. “Whatever you say, it is not what Sir Julian instructed us.”“Julian?” Damian, who was already in their middle, included himself in the conversation. “What’s happening
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 152: Close Friend's Betrayal
“A-Allysa?” Abigail mouthed as she almost couldn’t hear her own voice. Allysa is the female employee who accompanied Gabriel to the infirmary earlier. She usually had an innocent face, given that she was the youngest in the group.But now, her expression was different. Anger was evident in her eyes, and her aura screamed viciousness.“What are they talking about, Allysa? You reported us for what?”“For laziness and for showing violence so you can get whatever you want,” answered Allysa in a cold tone, her gaze unwavering. “I’m also the one who reported the plan you had in this town hall meeting. You planned to throw eggs at Damian so all of you can show how violent and rebellious you are.”Abigail blinked twice, looking at Abigail in disbelief. “You know why I’m doing this. I’m here to protect all of you from the injustice Julian was giving us. Sure, it may not be the right way, but I thought that all people, you will be the one to understand—”“Understand?” Allysa asked sarcasticall

Epilogue: The Last Retaliation
THE hostage-taking Carter did in the warehouse spread in various news channels like wildfire. Everyone was shocked because of his sudden escape from prison, making the residents afraid for their safety, knowing that the management wasn’t doing their job properly to monitor the prisoners.With that, the warden and his apprentices, who were also under Carter’s authority, were fired from their jobs. They were replaced by a management who cared about their citizens, removing the patronage system in the prison, and bringing back justice at the same time.Due to Carter’s crimes being in high intensity, he was transferred to a high-security prison. Carter could only laugh as his mind was still in the past, thinking how rich and powerful he was, even though that wasn’t the case now.Carter had already gone insane, but it was only the beginning of his suffering.“At last, you finally arrived,” Catelyn, who was waiting in Carter’s cell, greeted. “Did you miss me?”“What are you doing here?” Cart

Chapter 336: Let's End This Now
THE lights were flickering, adding tension in the air, as Damian entered the warehouse alone. He doesn’t have any guns or other weapons with him, nor he didn’t call anyone like Carter instructed.Damian was on high alert as he continued walking when suddenly, two men wearing full black clothes started to approach him with their guns.‘Fuck,’ cursed Damian at the back of his mind, seeing how helpless he was right now.Especially after seeing Ava tied to the chair, his mouth gagged, while Catela is sleeping in the crib beside her.Despite the situation, he couldn’t give up. Damian needed to save himself along with Ava and Catela and end this fight with Carter so it wouldn’t repeat.The two men tied Damian’s hands and feet to the chair, but unlike Ava, they didn’t gag him.“It is so unusual to see how obedient you are. I never thought you could do it,” Carter, who appeared from the shadows, smirked upon seeing Damian being helpless. “That’s right. They will always be safe as long as you

Chapter 335: Everything Will Be Alright
“That was not enough for all the bullshit you did to me before. But for now, let’s call it even," Damian said.Carson only shook his head as he wiped the blood on his lips before leaving the house. And the only thing that was running through his mind was how strong Damian’s punch was… before until now.THE NEXT morning, Carson didn’t just confess what he did to the board members, but he conducted a press conference to publicly apologize to Damian. He knew that Damian deserved to clear his name and regain his reputation, and although his public apology wasn’t enough, he still did it to show his sincerity.“Starting today, Carson Ferremento is now terminated as the CEO, and will face two years of suspension because of him ruining the Ferremento Corporation’s reputation,” Piper announced, her tone colder than usual. “The position will go back to Damian Giovanni Ferremento.”Carson smiled sadly, but he knew he needed to accept the consequences of his actions.However, since Damian had a

Chapter 334: Unexpected Alliance
“That bastard. He told you that even though you have a husband?” Carson asked, his teeth gritting.“Well, this is just an arranged marriage, and he knows it.” Ava shrugged. “To be honest, I would marry a man like him although he isn’t the richest, than stay with a puppet like you, who only knows how to follow someone else—”“Here,” Carson interjected, giving Ava the signed papers. “I will let you take Catela because I need to deal with something, but I will take her away from you once I'm done.”“Hah. As if I will let you do that.” Ava scoffed and rolled her eyes. “Thank you for this, Carson. Catela will benefit so much from this.”And as if Ava was waiting for this to happen, when she went again to their bedroom to take Catela, she already had her luggage with her and was talking to someone.“Yes, he already signed the divorce paper, and I’m all set…” Ava said, smiling from ear to ear. “Oh, your bodyguard is outside the house already? Alright. I will let him in.”Ignoring Carson, Ava

Chapter 333: History Repeats Itself
After Carter went out of the house unnoticed, that was the only time Carson could breathe properly. He didn’t even realize he was suppressing his breath because of fear.‘Is that really the brother I used to be with ever since I was a child?’ Carson thought, his heart racing, as he leaned into a tree. ‘We are family. Why would he threaten me like that? Is the company and the organization more important to him than me?’And upon asking himself that question, Carson got his answer. Carter wouldn’t mind killing everyone who would be a hindrance to his plans, and he is not an exemption.His gaze went to the house—Something he had because of Carter. Everything he had was him, not giving Carson any chance to carve out his own identity. He was only known for his surname, and for all his careless actions when he was in teenager days.The only thing he had that wasn’t connected with Carter was Dollie, whom he took for granted, and now his family; Ava, his wife, and Catela, their child.“Ava,”

Chapter 332: Taking Off The Facade
Realizing that Damian needs him right now, Veron took his phone and called a number. It was someone he thought he would never talk with again.“Veron,” Charlie Wiles, the CEO of the Legion Mercenaries, called. “It has been a long time, huh? What do you need this time?”“I have to ask you for a favor,” Veron replied.“A favor?” Charlie raised an eyebrow. “If it is about our operations, I’m sorry, but I need to decline. You know that we can’t take clients in other countries other than Colossia, right?”“I know that. You are not taking me as a dumb person, aren’t you?” Veron shot back, his voice laced with irritation now. “I need someone I trust to do this task for me, and I’m willing to pay any amount you want for it.”“Any amount, huh? Talking to rich people is different.” Charlie chuckled on the other line, yet he became serious afterward. “But alright, deal. What is it that you want me to do?”“I want you to find Correl Ferremento’s location and kill him,” Veron commanded, his tone s

Chapter 331: Second Plan
“Carson,” Damian called as his eyes darkened in anger. “It is you, isn’t it?”“If you are asking about the new CEO of this company, yes. It’s me,” Carson answered, smirking, as he placed the documents he brought to the table. “Why? Are you surprised that a person who was once a happy-go-lucky like me would be chosen to replace you?”“Why would I be surprised if you planned everything for this to happen?” Damian shot back, the annoyance evident in his tone. “Seeing you in front of me now just strengthens my hunch. It was you who messed up with the data. How could you?”Carson’s smirk widened. He didn’t answer. Instead, he stood proudly in the middle with his arms folded.“I’m not here because of the shitty things you accuse me of, but because I have given the board of directors a proposal strategy that you can’t provide.” Carson slid the document in front of Damian. “Here. Look at this.”Damian didn’t move at first, but a few seconds later, he took the folder and looked at its contents

Chapter 330: The New CEO
“Young master,” James, whom Damian called, answered on the other line. “Young master Carson is still doing his old routine; working in his office the whole day and going home afterward.”“How certain are you?” Damian asked.James’ brows furrowed, but he still answered in a polite tone, “I’m always monitoring him, young master. I didn’t even let him out of my sight.”“I know, but something might have happened that slipped your notice,” Damian said, his tone low and serious. “The Ferremento Corporation is in chaos right now, and I’m sure Carson is involved with it. I need you to think carefully.”James obliged. The tip of his brows pressed harder on each other upon recalling the surveillance, and his lips widened as he remembered something.“There was one incident. A few days ago, Miss Ava Medivien bumped into me and caused a commotion. For a moment, I lost sight of young master Carson’s office,” confessed James. “But it was only for a few seconds.”“And that is the only amount of time t
