IwaswiththestarsHello, everyone! We are almost finished on the Arc 3. There are only four scenes written in my outline before we jump to the next arc; Arc 4: Dollie's Killer, Lead Suspect, and Damian's lost memory. We're more than halfway now through the story. ^^ I'm dropping hints on the scenes you never expect me to drop it, hehe. I hope you can continue supporting this book by giving gems, leaving comments, and leaving a review if you like it. Again, I'm so thankful if you are still reading up to here. I will not reach this far if not because of you.

UPON HEARING Winston’s question, Damian’s forehead creased, not being able to move for a bit. “What do you mean? Care to explain?” he asked, the confusion evident in his tone.“Well, just look at yourself. You are strong, intelligent, and influential,” answered Winston, pointing at Damian from head to toe. “You can do anything in your power now to prove you are not the killer, or even escape this prison if you want to.”Damian raised an eyebrow. “And?”“And still, something is stopping you from moving forward.” Winston looked at Damian intently, his eyes blazing with confusion as he asked, “What is stopping you from doing the next step? How severe was the fear inside your heart to the point you were paralyzed?”Damian wasn’t able to answer. Instead, he looked away and saw the other inmates playing sports with each other. They were smiling, but Damian knew that inside their minds, they were thinking something evil toward the other.It was the reason why he couldn’t trust anyone, but Wi
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 236: Sabrina's Request
“A RED snake tattoo?” Veron repeated, his voice slightly cracked as his brows furrowed further, not expecting Damian’s question. “What are you talking about?” he tried to play innocently, but Damian could sense that.“Father, you know what I’m talking about,” answered Damian confidently, his tone polite as he sighed. “That group… I know that you are aware of it, too.”Veron closed his eyes, knowing he couldn’t deceive his son. “Do you remember your past now?”Damian went silent for a moment. One of the core memories he remembered was about his adoptive mother, Reina, at the time when his head hit the ground during his fall on the cliff. But he never told that to anyone and kept it a secret.“No. Not yet.” And it will remain as one.Veron nodded, clutching his chest as he felt the nervousness consuming his body, the same as his rapid heartbeat. He wanted Damian to remember anything, especially those who had those horrible scars on his back that he forgot due to his amnesia.However,
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 237: The Founder
AFTER THAT, they had a long and hot night. Veron and Sabrina’s relationship just became stronger as days went by. Of course, as a married couple, they also had a set of arguments and misunderstandings, but they never let it lead to divorce. The love they had for each other was stronger than the challenges they faced… not until Sabrina suddenly left the Ferremento Mansion, taking Damian with her. Veron was devastated, but he needed to get his shit together for the company’s sake. He took full authority over the mafia, the same as the special group Sabrina had requested before for the Cornerstone family’s transactions. Since the special group was created for that task specifically, the group members became idle on their different tasks, too, even though Veron already handled it. Not until Veron realized something. “Is this related to the reason why you are trying to make things up in the prison to eliminate some of the police officers there, who are some official employees of the Fe
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 238: Taste of Betrayal
THE MOST horrible thing happened decades ago, but Veron could still remember it like everything just happened yesterday. What was supposed to be a temporary thing almost became a permanent one, causing chaos for mankind.Veron remembered it all—From how he formulated the Red Snake Organization to do illegal transactions and gain more money they could use to acquire more shares and build companies, down to the command of banishing it.“This isn’t what we agreed upon, brother. We set a quota on how much we are going to save to circulate it in the company, and once we reach it, we are going to stop,” Veron said to Corell, his older brother.“I know… I know. But do you know what Father also taught us, right? We should take all the opportunities we can get, and this is one of them!” Corell answered, smiling devilishly. “Can’t you see how much we are earning from this? It is even more than what we earn in the company!”“Really? You are calling all the things we are doing now an opportunity?
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 239: The Dirty Tactic
“HI, DAD! Uhm, it wouldn’t be awkward to call you one, right?” Ava said, smiling widely while carrying a baby girl on her right arm. “I’m sorry for the interruption and for the surprise visit. I know it is too late to apologize now, but I want to introduce our daughter to you.”Veron didn’t answer immediately as he was too stunned to speak. His gaze moved to the baby, and a smile formed on his lips upon seeing the child smiling, completely ignorant about Ava’s evil deeds.“It's been several months since I gave birth to her. Mom, Dad, and Ethan were so fond of her since they were having quality time almost every day. So, I think this is the right time to introduce her here… Carter’s family,” Ava added, still smiling.Still, Veron remained silent. The anger filled his heart, knowing that Ava just married Carson to use him, but he didn’t let it show in his expression… Especially not in front of the child. Veron was sure that Damian had the same thought—Of not letting an innocent child b
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 240: Can I Trust You?
“THANK YOU, Dad,” replied Ava as her smile widened, knowing that Veron agreed to what they had said earlier. “Among all your people, Carson is the only person worthy to be the heir. Well, of course, except Carter. You had a high IQ, huh?”Carter looked away and chuckled upon hearing Ava’s statement. It was true. Carter had a high IQ, which made him more qualified to be the next heir. His intelligence was beyond expectations.However, he wanted to lead the Ferremento Mafia more than the company. He could find the thrill and satisfaction in solving problems in the mafia than in acquiring subsidiaries and taking care of stock prices.“I’m really glad that Dad managed to remove all the leeches in the company…” Ava muttered, her tone laced with disdain.
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 241: The Murder Weapon
BACK TO the prison, a few hours after Damian had a conversation with Veron, the nurse discharged him from the clinic. He had many wounds and bruises, but all of them weren’t that critical, so he was able to go back to his cell.There, Damian already accepted to himself that he was afraid. He was afraid of being betrayed by the people he trusted the most. It started when Ava betrayed him for Carson, and now, he could feel that Veron was hiding something from him.However, it wouldn’t stop Damian from pursuing his goals. His number one priority is still to get out of prison.But it was easier said than done.If Damian really wanted to escape the prison legally, he needed to find something that would question the judge’s verdict on his
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 242: A Traitor, A Trap
“BECAUSE I already know your real identity, Damian. You are the hidden heir and our cousin,” Carter said, his eyes gleaming with hidden knowledge. “In times like this, family should always help each other, right?”Damian wasn’t able to answer as he felt stunned. Carter didn’t have any doubts when he spoke those words. He was sure of what he said.‘Did father already tell him about me?’ asked Damian at the back of his mind, his brows furrowing. He looked at Carter intently. ‘Can I really trust him?’Although Carter didn’t show any signs of being an enemy for the past few months, Damian didn’t have a soft spot for him. Carter is nice despite his intimidating demeanor, but he is still Carson’s brother—his greatest rival.“I’m your brother’s enemy. You are no stranger to deceit and manipulation, either,” said Damian as he leaned to the chair and tapped his fingers on the table. “How can I tell if you are telling the truth?”Carter clicked his tongue, looking Damian in the eye. “Interestin

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

“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

“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
