The Mysterious Son-In-Law Revenge Plans
When Dennis reached the visitor waiting area, Kuza turned her gaze just in time to see him walk out of the hallway.Impulsively with a mix of emotions, she marched forward excitedly towards him and without giving it any thought, embraced himDennis was taken aback by her sudden reaction as he felt the weight of her body collide with his, wrapping her arms around him tightly.Slowly, he brought his arms around her waist and pulled her in tightly, while giving Yura an appreciative look.When his arms rounded her waist, Kuza blushed as she felt Dennis's warmth circling her.Dennis on the other hand, slowly raised his hand and pressed her head against his chest, inhaling the flowery smell of her hair.At that moment, his mind drifted away. Something about this feeling felt eerily familiar, almost like deja vu, like he had lived this before, which made no sense to him because he could not remember ever holding her.After a few moments, Kuza wiggled herself out of his embrace and gazed up a
The Mysterious Son-In-Law I want you
When Dennis left the police station, he quickly brought out his phone and called Sasha.The phone rang for a few moments before she finally picked"I was hoping you'd call" Sasha said in a flattering toneHowever, Dennis had no time to engage in pleasantries. On the phone, he snarled indignantly"Really Sasha, framing me for drug possession is a little beneath you don't you think?", Dennis asked subtly,He intended to find out if his ex-wife was indeed involved in the scheming that got him arrested. This time he had promised that he wouldn't let his in-laws off so easily, and if Sasha had to be collateral damage so be it. Still, he wanted to confirm she was not part of this."Frame you? Drug possession? What are you talking about Dennis?" Sasha asked, caught by surprise"So you are not a part of this?" Dennis asked for clarification "A part of what? What's going on?" Sasha was about to ask more when she heard the sound of a siren blaring through on the opposite end of the call. At
The Mysterious Son-In-Law It's a date
The ride to Dennis's house was filled with silence. The air had shifted and his cool demeanor was now filled with hatred and burn in his heart.Kuza looked blankly at Dennis and decoded to break the uncomfortable silence"So are you going to tell me now how you ended up in jail?" She broached the topicSlowly, Dennis shifted his gaze from the road and gazed at her blankly for a few seconds and then turned his focus back on the road, saying nothing. "Come on Dennis, you're going to have to let someone in at some point", Kuza said impatiently. She couldn't tell what it was, but Dennis had been acting suspiciously distant since they walked out of jail. She continued staring at him, hoping he would say something. After hesitating for a while, Dennis pointed to a lane"Take here" he said giving Kuza the directions to his home. He was sure that after only visiting once, she wouldn't remember the way to his home.Kuza groaned softly in frustration and continued down the lane. A few momen
The Mysterious Son-In-Law Preparations for Dinner
Realizing that Kuza had just asked him on a date knew he needed to go shopping as he searched through his wardrobe and found that his clothes wouldn't do.For an instant, an abrupt thought appeared across Dennis's mind.If the dinner date went well, would he then have to tell Kuza about his visions, or commit to a relationship based on lies?However, Dennis quickly dismissed the thoughts, quickly brought out his phone and stared at the number on the screen for a while.There was still one man from his family who he could trust, but with every recent suspicious activity he had encountered, Dennis couldn't tell if this was the right time to call him.He was sure that he was being watched by the people involved in his mother's death for any action he took that seemed like he was trying to reach out to anyone tied to his mother.He knew he could not make the call to Apiu Singh, his mother's lawyer and oldest friend, at least not with his phone. He felt a notion that the people he was loo
The Mysterious Son-In-Law Visit to the Mayor's office
"Kuza" Dennis said warmly"Good morning" came Kuza's voice on the opposite end of the call.A brief moment of silence passed before Dennis finally spoke up,"Forgive me, I wasn't expecting your call so early", he said Kuza immediately felt embarrassed and quickly apologized"Oh, I hope I did not wake you up", "No, no. Not at all" Dennis replied, and walked to the kitchen island, pulled out a seat and sat on it"What's up?" He said sharply, trying to compose himself'What's up? That is what you can say to sound less smitten?' Dennis quickly scolded himselfKuza thought his response sounded a little off, but ultimately decided to wave it off"Uhm, I was just calling to see if we're still up for our dinner tonight," Kuza said sheepishly. At that point, Dennis could sense her embarrassment and a strange satisfaction engulfed him. It was good to know that he wasn't the only one having these feelings."Yeah. I'll see you there" Dennis said flatly. Kuza found it a bit discouraging and th
The Mysterious Son-In-Law Planned A Ball
"Mr Apollo, can I get you anything? Water? A drink?" The Mayor said hurriedly and then saw his secretary still waiting by the door.Immediately his gaze turned cold as he sneered at her"Are you deaf?! What are you still doing here?" He yelled.Instantly the lady rushed out. Her boss was an audacious man who seemed to not take instructions or listen to anything anyone had to say. To see him act so humbly in the presence of the mysterious man, the young lady could only wonder who the man was.She instantly bowed and was about to rush out when Dennis's voice echoed in the room"Coffee black," he said"You heard him" the mayor said snarling at his secretaryAt that point, Dennis wore an inexpressive look and gazed at the man,"Right…the Wilson home documents" the man said sharply, stood up, rushed to his drawer and searched for a file amongst the stack.A few moments later, he pulled out one and gazed at it under the illumination of the fluorescent light to confirm that it was the right
The Mysterious Son-In-Law Stay Out of It
Lord Duncan's words reassured Dennis of his plans for revenge. After a while, Dennis got up to leave, but as he reached the door, he stopped and turned.He was about to ask the old Lord about the Russian man he met the other day and what his business is with him, but then ultimately decided against using a direct approach.Slowly, he marched back to the chair, sat down and heaved a sigh gazing at the pool.He already knew the answer to the question he was about to ask the old Lord, but still, he needed to be certain."Beautiful isn't it?" The old Lord asked as he turned his gaze and saw Dennis,"Quite","Are you having second thoughts?" Lord Duncan asked with an air of curiosity.The breeze sifted through his hair and gave his skin a soothing calmness. Lord Duncan glanced at him and chuckled slightly"I thought you wouldn't want to go through with it," he said disappointedly "No matter. I guess I'll just keep the company then" he added"That's not why I'm back" Dennis replied confid
The Mysterious Son-In-Law An Emerald Gift
Dennis walked out of the office excited for his evening.He gave Lord Duncan some time alone to think, hoping that he would know how to choose and make the right decisionExposing his nephew's fraudulent acts at the hospital was just a petty decision. Dennis partly could not stand Mark going unpunished for framing Owen. On the other hand, he thought if he could get Mark reprimanded, that would relieve Kuza, and maybe even go as far as to impress her if she found out who was responsible for it. Dennis's footsteps remained steady as he walked away without looking back.He bumped into Yura at the front door who had stared at him intently the whole time as he approached her, with a malicious gaze.Dennis noticed her leaning against the door with her arms crossed above her chest. "I'd like a moment with you Mr Apollo" Yura said and pushed off against the door, following Dennis outside "I heard you're having dinner tonight at Somerville. Quite a fancy hotel"Immediately Yura said this,

Kuza got up and paced frantically and as Dennis tried to stand up, he staggered on his feet and collapsed on the ground.At this point, the negative imbalance was eating at the core of his chiSeeing his drop to the floor, Kuza hurried towards him and supported him towards the bench. Before coming here, Dennis had drafted a sentimental apology speech, but at this moment, it was a lot harder to say anything.Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of Akio from the corner of her eyes and hurriedly approached him"Tell me there's a way to undo this" she spoke frantically Elder Akio remained quiet for some time, caressing his soft white beard, and then said, "There might be a way to, but...","But what?" Kuza interjected impatiently"I can't do it. It'll require someone with a very powerful Gift, someone like you", Akio replied"Me?" Kuza asked in shock. She had barely learned the basic techniques of Chi manipulation, how then was she expected to heal someone with a level 10 Chi energy?Her face

The moment Akio uttered those words, Dennis stood still for a moment, bit his lips, and then smiled weakly He had foreseen his death in his heart when he realized there was an imbalance in his Chi levels. He now understood why most gurus did not attempt to reach the yin-yang ChiAt a moment like this, it was only a matter of time. No one or anything could save him, and a part of him knew that"How did this happen, Dennis?" Elder Akio's voice echoed again in his earsDennis did not answer. Instead, he remained standing for some moments, using Diune to listen to the familiar heartbeats hiding and eavesdropping from behind the door, and a weak smile curled from the corners of his lip"Dennis! How did this happen?!" Apiu shouted angrily Dennis broke out of his trance and heaved a deep sigh, staring at Apiu who looked back at him for an explanation, "I can't recall," he said vaguely Apiu raised his hand and smacked his forehead in frustration"What do you mean you can't recall?" He sne

Immediately after he read the message, Dennis quickly called Apiu. As soon as the call entered, Apiu picked it up "Are they safe?", Dennis asked impatiently"Yes, they are. Meet us at the cabin" Apiu respondedDennis sighed gladly, glanced at his wristwatch, and said "I'll be there within the hour" then ended the callDennis walked onto the street and hailed a taxi. He was sure that with ties to Jon's case, the cops would also be looking for him. Till this whole was sorted out, he had to keep a low-profileThe taxi halted in front of him, and after he entered, he gave the man the location of a private home just miles away from the cabinAfter driving for some minutes, he finally arrived at the building, and upon handing the driver the fare, Dennis turned and searched around, making sure no one was following or watching him Upon confirming that it was safe, he called Apiu again and then headed toward the cabinApiu felt a sudden chill surging in his heart when he saw Dennis.

"There's no mark on the body!" The young officer exclaimed in shock"What are you talking about?!", Mark asked "We did forensics on the body, to determine what weapon the killer used, but we found nothing. There's no trace" he exclaimed Deshaun chuckled lightly, raised his hand, and gently tapped Mark, "See I told you, Mark, it wasn't Dennis. Take this as a win", he said and turned to give, but before he walked out of the room, he suddenly stopped and pat his head as if he had forgotten something"Oh, Mark. I almost forgot","I did see someone else here. While I was arriving, I saw him just pulling out of the driveway. It was your boss, Victor, you should be investigating instead" Deshaun said, then leaned closer and added"Maybe Victor found out that his partner Jon was trying to pull one over him and decided to kill him",Mark was stunned, he did not want to believe what Deshaun was suggesting, but before he could even express his shock. Deshaun reached into his coat pocket and br

"How did this happen?" Deshaun repeated walking towards Dennis"I don't know what happened. He said some things about my mother, which was the last thing I could remember. I don't know if I killed him or not" Dennis answeredWhen Deshaun saw him, a dash of gloom hovered over his head. He felt sympathy for his friend but knew that sooner or later, the cops would find Jon's body and if they had any suspicions that Dennis killed him, he would be thrown into prisonDeshaun walked closer and examined the sharp piercing in Jon's head, sighed gladly, and said "You need to get out here, go somewhere far, but don't skip town. I'm going to radio this in, the cops can't find you here when they arrive",Dennis stood up and nodded without a word, then turned around and walked back towards the bed where his wallet had fallen, picked it up, and as he was about to walk out, he stopped beside Deshaun and whispered "I hated everything about him, and wanted nothing more than for him to die by my hands,

Dennis felt slightly dejected staring at Jon's corpse on the ground. The last few minutes seemed like a blur with a vague recollection of what had happenedHesitantly, he moved closer to Jon's body and noticed a sharp piercing through his head. Dennis raised his hands and searched for any weapons he could have used to do thisAt this point, his heart strangely felt heavy. He knew he had killed Jon, but why was he suddenly feeling remorse for him?Just as he sighed, disheartened, his phone suddenly rang and Dennis retrieved the phone from his pocket to see that it was from DeshaunDennis didn't want to pick up the call as he stared at Deshaun's name on the screen. He had a good impression he knew what this was about. Afterall he was the one on the call with JonWhen Deshaun and the cops must have arrived at Mariner Bay tracing the signal, they would have realized that there were just tracing a fake signalIf that happened, knowing Deshaun, he would assume that Dennis must have known so

Immediately the receptionist gave Dennis the address, he shot her a warm smile, then turned and headed towards his uncle's roomUpon reaching the lobby, he took the elevator and went straight to his uncle's room on the fourth floorThe hotel's wide room spacing was due to the many restaurants, lounges, saunas, and gyms inside the buildingThis caused the rooms to be spaced unevenly in the building. This unique feature is what made Jon find this to be the perfect hideout spot for him, and made Dennis's arrival even less expectedAs he exited the elevator and walked towards the office, he was still pondering what could have been Diana's reasons for working with Jon in the first placeHowever, despite a long and considerable thought, nothing made sense. Still, he was grateful she had recognized Jon for who he truly was and had a change of mindSuddenly, a door behind him opened.It was Victor, he was about to head towards the elevator when he noticed a familiar figure as soon as he left

As soon as he heard those words, Dennis's face turned red with anger. This entire time he had been searching everywhere for who was responsible for his mother's death, when in truth it was his uncle all alongHe swallowed angrily trying to control his temper, then snorted coldly "You are going to wish you had stayed in jail, Jon"Jon chuckled before replying "Guess, it'll be pointless to ask you to turn over the company and house deeds and make this all simple, wouldn't it?","I'll be seeing you, Jon," Dennis said and then ended the call immediately.He turned towards Deshaun who had heard everything and had a sympathetic look towards him.Without saying anything, Dennis immediately ignited the car in a fit of rage and wanted to drive off when suddenly Deshaun grabbed his hand, removing it from the steering wheel"Dennis! Dennis! Listen to me!" He spoke hurriedly"This is what he wants, to throw you off your game. He knows we're on to him, so he's going to say anything to trigger you

There was no need to endanger her lifeWithout any arguments, Sandra did as she was instructed and got into a can heading back to her apartmentAs soon as Dennis parked the car, a call entered his phone immediately. Glancing at Deshaun, he hesitantly answered it"Hello nephew", Jon's deep voice sounded over the microphone"I heard you've been looking for me", he said teasinglyA deep wrinkled frown immediately formed on Dennis's forehead as he spoke "What do you want you old bastard?",Jon chuckled as he asked him in a mysterious manner "Isn't it obvious at this point, I'm not here to negotiate anything with you. I'm already taking everything I want",Dennis hesitated for a moment before replying "Come on Jon, we all know that is not what you really want, is it?""You know I've been thinking about it, trying to figure out why you've decided to show up now.
