The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Date
The plan was simple. At least they thought it was. Elsa was to distract her mother with a deep conversation while Ray would cover sneaking out with the phone.After going over the plan for the umpteenth time, Elsa made the first step. As soon as she located her mom, she knew the plan would never work. The woman had the phone in her hand and whatever conversation are was hoping to strike there and then would be useless. She thought of returning to Ray to tell him to draft another plan, but on second thoughts, she decided to try her luck. She joined her mother in the garden and sat quietly while the woman laughed over a video she was watching. Elsa remained quiet, waiting to be noticed. “What do you want?” The question caught her off-guard. Frankly, she hadn't expected the woman to speak to her at all. “I… I wanted to talk to you about something,” Elsa said, a bit awkwardly. “Get on with it,” even as she said that her eyes were still glued to her phone screen. Elsa cursed inwardl
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Date II
“How do I look?” Ray stared at her, without uttering a word. She gave a three-sixty in the two-piece jumpsuit. “Is it okay?” She asked again when she noticed he didn't answer her question.“It's just dinner, you're overdressed,” he shrugged, not bothering to spare her feelings. Elsa appreciated the honesty. The last thing she wanted was to look overdressed. She got into her walk-in closer once again while Ray got engrossed in his thoughts, trying to understand his feelings. She was indeed overdressed but on a normal day, he would have said that in a less harsher tone. Something was definitely wrong with him. He snapped out of his thoughts once again when she came out in a simple blue dress. It was knee-length but flair and simply stunning.He bit his lip. Blue was indeed her color. It was perfect for their dinner date yet a part of him was aching to tell her to forget the dress and go to bed. “Ray?” She called when he didn't speak. He blinked. “Yeah… I mean this is perfect for

Edgar stopped in front of the house. After a pleasant evening with her, he decided to drive her home himself just to spend more time with her. Elsa felt a warm feeling in her chest at the gesture, but all that vanished when she saw the figure outside.Ray was lying on the lawn staring at the sky. Was he waiting for her? Her heart fluttered at the thought. Edgar noticed her distant expression and traced her eyes to the man on the field. His features hardened. “Who is that?” He asked her.“Oh,” she turned to him with a nervous smile. “That is Ray.”“Your… brother?” Edgar asked and she shook her head.“Of course not. I expected you to already know I'm an only child,” she snorted, stepping out of the car. Edgar stepped out too. He was pretty sure the man was aware of their presence but he didn't make any attempt to get up from the spot. He watched Elsa run up to the stranger. His lips poised in a frown. He didn't like the excitement on her face. “Ray? I'm back!” She announced, kicki
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law The deal
“So, tell me about yourself. It will help me to know what position to fix you,” Edgar asked. Jay gave it a thought. How could he tell the man about something he barely knew himself? “I… Doctor Larry found my body floating in the ocean. He believed I must have drowned somehow. I can't remember anything about my family or where I come from but I do know that I cook very well and have a vast knowledge of business,” Ray answered.“Business? You?” Edgar taunted. Ray tried not to take it to heart. It was expected for the rich to look down on others at some point in their life. Whether it was intentional or not. “Yes, business. I have read books, sir and I can boldly say that my knowledge is not garbage. It might not be as accurate as yours but it is still knowledge, nonetheless,” Ray said, without taking offense. Edgar watched the young man keenly. He took a sip of his wine and straightened up. “So tell me, Mr Ray, do you have any business plans? Forgive me for being intrusive, I just a

Elsa visited a few hours later to check on Ray, but Edgar got in the way. “Elsa, I didn't expect you to show up so soon,” He smiled. She looked over his shoulder searching for Ray with her eyes. “Yeah, I didn't think I would come so soon either. Where is Ray?” She asked. He painfully took note of the fact that even though he was right in front of her, she barely glanced at him. Her eyes were searching for a man who told him he had no feelings for her. He didn't comment on that though. He was confident that Ray would help him get her. He just needed to be patient.“Where is Ray?” Elsa looked at him for the first time since she stepped into the room. She raised a brow at him, confused at the expression on his face. “Is there a problem? Did Ray do something to offend you?” She asked. His expression grew more sullen. Just when he thought she was a little concerned about him. “Why aren't you saying anything?” Elsa crossed her arms impatiently. Out of frustration, she walked past him,
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Engagement
“Are you still mad at me?” Edgar asked Elsa in the kitchen when she came to grab a glass of juice. Her first instinct was to ignore him but on second thoughts, there was nothing to be pissed about. He clearly told her how he felt. The least she could do was accept it and move on. “No, I'm not mad anymore. It won't change how you feel,” she shrugged. “It's not what you think. I actually helped Ray because I wanted to not because I felt any sense of responsibility towards him,” Edgar told her. Elsa crossed her arms, “Is that so? You didn't sound like that earlier.”“I'm sorry. I didn't mean anything I said to you. I was just pissed that you came to my house for the first time and didn't spare me a glance. All you were concerned about was your friend and it hurt me,” he confessed. “He was injured!” Elsa said defensively. “Yeah, right, whatever. My point remains you didn't even care about my feelings. You just wanted to see your friend,” he insisted. Elsa couldn't deny he was right.
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law HR
After Elsa left, Ray showered and got dressed, prepared to resume work for the day. He was supposed to resume early that morning but Edgar has his meetings rescheduled.Now he had three meetings to catch up with and as a PA, he was expected to be there even though he didn't know how to act. He took a look in the mirror. A sense of familiarity hit him when he saw himself in the black suit. He couldn't place it but it felt like something he'd done before. Often too. Ray didn't reason it too much because he had on his mind, way bigger than a mere suit. He wondered how Elsa would react if she saw him in a suit. He took a selfie and sent it to Elsa. She viewed it almost immediately and dreaded nibbles through his skin as the three dots appeared. “First time seeing a monkey look good on a suit.”He let out a chuckle.“Is that a compliment or your way of calling me ugly?” He texted.“Take whichever suits you best,” she replied.“Crazy girl,” Ray chuckled, pocketing his phone. He didn't
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Threat
“Your employee is very rude. How do you cope with her?” Was the first thing Ray said when he entered Edgar's office. It seemed like the man was already done with whatever he'd been doing on his laptop. “Patricia?” Edgar chuckled. “I'm sorry about that. She might be a little in her head sometimes but she's the best we have around her. Very innovative with amazing marketing skills.”“Apparently she lacks communication skills,” Ray scoffed. “I lost a few pounds just talking to her. How does she market with all that intimidating aura or does she bully the clients into accepting her proposal?”Edgar burst into laughter, “If she heard that, you'd be losing a lot more than a few pounds.”“I don't doubt that.” He took the seat opposite Edgar’s. “You done for the day?”“Yeah.”“Is this the right place to discuss or do we do lunch or something?” Ray asked. Edgar suspected the discussion had to do with Elsa. His office was soundproof and there was zero possibility of them being overheard by ou
