The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 29: Everyone Is A Suspect
THE ENTIRE ROOM was filled with tension after hearing Damian’s words. They never expected Damian to accuse one of them of stealing the crucial documents needed to sustain their operations. “How could you say that?” Rachel, one of the event managers, asked in shock. “Before you even became an intern, all of us here are together working our ass off to do tons of projects and eliminate problems. Just how dare you accuse that one of us is a stealer?” “I’m not accusing everyone. What I said is just based on facts…” Damian’s gaze went to Kierra, who was silent while observing everyone in the room. “Ma’am Kierra thinks the same thing, and I know some people here understand where I’m coming from, too.” “Ma’am Kierra! Even you?!” Rachel asked their operations manager, her hands on her chest, trying to maintain composure but failing. “We’ve all been here for years! How could you think that one of us here is a traitor and believe that intern’s words blindly?!” “He has a point, Rachel. And I k
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 30: Flawless Plan
TOMORROW MORNING at the Mid-Century Elegance Events was another hectic day for the Operations Department employees, but not for Damian and Kierra. As they had a serious conversation yesterday, they made a plan to catch the suspect discreetly.“No one should know about this, but only you and me,” Damian remembered what he had said to Kierra. “Whoever that person was, for sure that he was skilled at this, considering how long he was stealing information and documents. We need to be alert, or else we’ll lose the chance to catch the thief.”“I understand, and I’ll give her the highest punishment possible once we catch her,” Kierra replied, clenching her fists. “Thank you for the help, Damian. I’ll make sure to put a good word for you at the higher-ups.”“Thank you. I appreciate that.” Damian smiled. “For now, we need to make plans, and lure the thief out of his shell.”“Good morning, everyone,” Kierra greeted, causing Damian to snap out of his thoughts. “Regarding the discussion we had ye
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 31: Intend
EVERY EMPLOYEES of the Operations Department was in a buzz while doing their jobs. They were complaining and were in a rush while doing the tasks Kierra assigned to them with all their might when Damian opened the door and exited Kierra’s office.“I have an announcement to make,” said Damian in a cold yet disappointed tone, causing his colleagues’ brows to furrow.“And who are you to make an announcement, huh? You’re just an intern,” Rachel sneered and rolled her eyes. “Is this about your wannabe thief of the documents here?”“Yes, and now, I’m going to declare who it is,” Damian answered nonchalantly while holding a document in his hand. “I know that everyone saw me earlier with Ma’am Kierra inside her office. We were investigating every angle of the scene, so we could gather evidence about this case.”“Then why are you the one making the announcement instead of Ma’am Kierra?” Freya asked, raising a brow.“Almost everyone here has been working in the Operations Department for three y
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 32: It's You, Isn't It?
UPON HEARING Damian’s words, Rachel laughed and looked at Damian with disdain. “You’re really thinking highly of yourself, aren’t you? Making you leave this company is just a piece of cake. We don’t even have to plan it.”“Ah, so is that why all of you here are encircled in the corner of the room excluding me?” Damian raised a brow.“It’s because we don’t want to include you in our conversation. It’s a right that we have, Damian,” Freya answered with a mocking grin. “You’ll be fired from the company, anyway.”“Let’s see.” Damian shrugged before going back to his cubicle to continue his work—Which mostly organized the documents and created data backups for it.Damian knew that this amount and intensity of every task shouldn’t be given to him because he was just an intern, but he liked the fact that he was learning something new in his experiences. Once all those experiences are compiled, it will be a stack skill that he could use in the future.Meanwhile, the other employees returned

“The real thief? What the hell are you talking about?” Freya asked, pretending to be innocent while forcing a smile. “Are you accusing me right now? But it was already proven that it was Nicole who stole the documents, right? Why are you suddenly obsessing about it?”“Because I know that it’s not her, and you’re aware of it, too,” Damian answered in a low and menacing tone. “Do you really think you can get away from this?”Freya was astounded for a moment, seeing how Damian looked at her intently. It was like he was staring into her soul, and reading her thoughts. There was something about Damian’s aura that always made her nervous, even though he wasn’t doing anything.At that moment, her skin went paler, afraid that Damian would know about her real identity.“I don’t know what you are talking about, and I don’t like how you’re accusing me,” said Freya as she regained her composure. “I’ve been working here for four years, Damian. We all had a strong bond even before you took the inte
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 34: Diagnosis
FREYA WANTED to talk back, but she was at a loss for words. She and Jacob were doing this kind of work for years, and no one ever caught them. But Damian? He knew about their secret in such a short time.“You can steal the documents in your old way—In which people wouldn't be able to catch you, but you made your move known on purpose. Why?” Damian took a step forward with a smirk. “Because you wanted to frame me up.”“Stop it…” Freya closed her eyes and covered her ears, trying not to hear Damian's blabberings, but it didn't stop him from speaking.“You wanted Kierra to fire me by framing me up as the thief, but it didn't happen. You also tried framing me as Nicole's accomplice, but no one believed you, too.”“Shut the fuck up…” Freya muttered in a low and nervous tone. She couldn't believe that a day like this would happen—That someone would know about her real job as a spy for the rival companies. Not to mention that it was a poor intern like Damian. Freya can't accept it! It was a

“TORTURED? Are you sure about that?” Damian asked, his brows furrowing after hearing Raine’s words.“I am sure unless you don’t consider burning someone’s skin as an act of torture,” Raine replied, and although her words sounded sarcastic, the tone of her voice was exactly the opposite. “I think they used a gas lighter on burning your skin until it created a third-degree burn. It’s the reason why you still feel so much pain.”Damian grimaced in response. Although Raine gave him enough pain relievers to lessen the pain, it was still not enough. The wounds inside his back should heal to stop his back from hurting.“Like what I’ve said before, healing your wounds would take weeks or months, depending on how your body will respond to the medicines I gave you,” said Raine as she took a piece of paper on her table and listed all the new medicines and their dosages. “Once you’re healed, we’ll do a scar revision surgery on your back. I’ll also have another doctor to check your nerves, too.”“
The Fallen Son-In-Law's Retaliation Chapter 36: Consultation
“I SHOULD be the one to ask you. What are you doing here?” Damian asked, his eyes flickering between Dollie and the door behind her “Are you having problems in your academic life or the mansion? I told you, if there is any problem, you can tell me.”“It’s not a big problem, really…” Dollie bowed her head, maintaining her gaze on the floor. “I’m just having a consultation with Doctor Caroline about my mental health. I want to make sure that I’ll not be having burnout—”“Liar,” Damian interrupted, his forehead creased. “If that’s the case, you should be consulting a psychologist instead of a psychiatrist.”Dollie pouted and played with the hem of her blouse using her fingers. She couldn’t even have the courage to look up. Damian caught her big time, and she didn’t know what to say.“It’s fine if you don’t want to open up to me. I’ll respect your decision, little brat.” Damian smiled and patted Dollie’s head, which made Dollie ease up a bit. “Just always remember that if you need someone

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
