The Revenge of The Worthless son in law 83. The Threat.
Back at the police station, when Lauren said he cheated on her with Shantel, hearing he name brought back memories, warm memories from Jason's high school days. Back in those days, Jason was as poor and being poor could be. The orphanage where he grew up managed to pay his tuition fees until he turned eighteen, so after that time he was left to fend for himself.He engaged in different menial jobs, delivery boy, dog walker, even mowing people's lawn… anything that could fetch him money. Then he met Shantel.Her parents weren't millionaires but they were wealthy enough, and out of the allowance she got, she would buy things for him. The two were really close that even other people thought they were a couple. And who knows, maybe they might have been… if he had never met Lauren.Fast forward to a few years in the future, when she kissed him without his consent, he wasn't offended. He never had the intention of cheating on Lauren with her but he didn't hate her for kissing him, because

NEW YORK."Mabel! Mabel!! Where is that woman?!" Anthony barked, he couldn't believe what his son told him and he needed to hear and see the confirmation for himself."What is it? Why do you keep screaming my name like I'm a thief or something." The woman replied, a glass of wine in her hand and she slowly strolled out of her bedroom."Is it true? Tell me it isn't.""Is what true?""That you were the one who went after that young lady's life and not Lauren?!""Is that the reason you've been yelling my name like a mad man?""What did you say to me?" When he heard that his daughter was arrested for trying to kill Rose, he thought she did it because of the relationship that was between them. He even confronted her and called her a psycho for going to such extreme. Only for Marcus to inform him that his wife was actually the culprit and not her."And so? What if I was the one? Do you think you have the right to question me? You of all people." She replied nonchalantly."What on earth is t

FRANCE."Once again, I'll have to ask for the permission to speak freely with you sir." James said as they were strolling down the aisles at the store."Of course you can, it's not a problem at all.""Very well then. Now that you have been able to completely nullify your marriage with Lauren, what do you intend on doing?""I'm not sure I quite get that question. Are you talking in terms of my life personally, or about Erika?""Let's start with your life. I am one hundred percent sure that your ex wife and her family won't let just let you off the hook so easily. Once we arrive back in new York, I know they will try to do something, it might not be to get you back together with their daughter but I have a feeling they might want revenge.""Hmm, it sounds like you really know the Kings family. Well, whatever stunt they try to pull, I'm sure we'll be one step ahead of them. I'll have Matthew be on the lookout and I'm not going to let my guard down either. So I'm sure we'll be okay.""Doe

"Hey cuz, what took you so long?" Meredith asked as he entered the living room with Erika's father."Shopping took longer than we expected." He replied with a smile. "Where's Erika?""Why should I care?" She said, frowning at Erika's father like he had offended her."What is that supposed to mean?" Jason asked, then noticing the bruise on her lip and nose, he added with more concern to his tone. "Did you two have a fight? Is Erika okay?""Seriously? You see me in this state and still all you can do is ask about that girl.""Meredith where is she?!""I don't know! Probably in the roo-"He didn't wait for her to finish her sentence before dashing inside to check on her. Her father, concerned for his pregnant daughter followed as well.When Jason heard her crying, it made him even more worried. He quickly rushed inside to see her but just then, he heard her mother's confession. "You know about my kidnapping?" His worry immediately drowned out and was replaced by a feeling of hurt.All th

Jason was glad he made up with Erika and that he decided not to hold her parents responsible, it had been two days since their little fight but one could hardly tell because they had gone back to relating with each other like they were family… all except Meredith, that is.She barely stayed in the house and whenever she did, she was always giving them attitude and the reason was still a big mystery to Jason.When he arrived in France, he was happy to see that Erika and Meredith were getting along. She was even calling her sister in law already, so what could have gone wrong?"Why aren't you eating?" Erika noticed the look on his face and touched his arm lightly. "Is everything alright?""Yes. I was just thinking about Meredith."*Yeah, I don't understand what happened either.""Me neither. I could have sworn that you two were best friends already, until she started trying to force you with Joshua and then acting so rude.. even in the presence of your parents.""Maybe she never liked us

FRANCE.Erika was having fun with her parents, though she wished Jason was with them. She understood his reason for not joining them but it still made her feel bad.Jason never had the luxury of having such outings with his parents and she was sure that it made him feel bad, that was the reason she always wanted to involve him in what ever she was doing with her parents.For that day, they had made plans to go to a nearby amusement park and go on all the available rides, then they would head to the beach to have more fun hefure going back to the mansion.They were taking a break from one of the rides at the park when she received a text from Jason, asking her to meet him at the hospital rather than going back to the house. "Mom, dad, I think something might be wrong."Without wasting time, they quickly made their way to the hospital, Jason didn't specify which hospital he was talking about but she knew it had to be the one they were currently using for her.When they got there, she qui

NEW YORK."Marcus, what are we going to do?" "About what?"The worry in her voice was evident but her brother just replied her nonchalantly, displeasing her. "What is that question supposed to mean? What are we going to do about mother?. If this case goes on any longer, she might actually be taken to court. And who knows what will happen if it gets to that?""I do." He said. "She gets punished for her crime, and then receives a sentence.""Marcus! She is your mother.""She tried to frame you for it!! Why did you suddenly omit that part from your memory? Did you forget that you were the one in that cell for all those days and she wasn't going to do anything about it?""You don't know that Marcus, she might have been working on something, Maybe–""Yeah, she was working on something indeed. Like going out for more shopping and drinking new brands of wine every day. Sister Lauren, I know she is our mother, and I'm not saying I despise her or anything… I just think she needs to face the m

FRANCE."Hey, how are you feeling?""Better and ready to go home." Jason had spent a week in the hospital and to be honest, he was already tired of it. Laying around and not doing anything for that extended period of time was both boring and tiring at the same time to him. He stayed there however, to please Erika."I don't know JP, I think you need more time to recover.""I don't. Look, I'm fine." He got on his feet, stretching both his arms to show her he was okay. He spun around slowly with the hope that seeing him agile would convince her. However, when he turned to face her again, she still had that lol of worry her eyes. Meaning, she wasn't convinced.Sure, Jason was not denying the fact that he still felt pain in his injury, getting shot isn't something that exactly healed in a day or two. But he was okay, he could move his arm again and he was sure he had regained all the blood he lost back. So there was no use remaining confined in a hospital ward."Erika, your delivery date

SOMEWHERE IN SWITZERLAND.MABEL'S NEW HOME."They think they've won, just like that. They think they can just toss me to the side and expect me to stay still. Me, Mabel Kings, a woman of high status, forced to live as measly as a beggar. I am not going to take it.""If you are not going to take it, then what will you do about it?" After the tables turned on them, Mabel and her husband relocated to a remote island far from New York where she was sure that she was a wanted person because of what she did to Jason as a child. What she didn't know was that Jason decided to bury the story, telling the media that he was sure the culprits would get what was coming to them. What made Mabel even more enraged was the fact that her son joined sides with her mortal enemy. She was expecting that much from Lauren who was blinded with love, but Marcus… she still couldn't believe it."That bastard son of mine is definitely on my list of enemies. How dare he double cross me? I have to make him pay fo

FRANCE.Meredith regained consciousness with a huge gasp for air like she had been drowning. She quickly surveyed her surroundings and saw that she was at a hospital. She tried to remember what happened but everything was fuzzy. "Ugh, my head." She tried to sit up but a all man eased her to lay back down. "Easy now, you shouldn't sit up just yet. Just lay there for at least thirty more minutes." He said, holding her down. "How.. how did I get here?""Your brother brought you here, he said he found you unconscious at the park.""The park? Wait my brother?""Yes. He'll be here soon, he just stepped out to use the bathroom. How are you feeling?" He placed a hand on her forehead to feel her temperature. "Like my head is about to explode. What happened to me?""You mean you don't remember?""Not really, everything is just so fuzzy.""Don't worry, it'll come back to you in a while. I'm doctor Brady by the way." He said with a warm smile. "Meredith.""Okay Meredith. Just take it easy ok
116. The Ceremony.
NEW YORK."Hey Steve,""Mr Decker! Is it weird to say I missed you?""Not at all. Because I missed you too." Steve was one of the reasons Jason was actually looking forward to resuming work. "Man, working without you has been really boring." He confessed, walking with Jason through the busy halls of the company. "Well, I'm back now.""Completely?""One hundred percent. My grandfather told me you helped greatly in planning for this ceremony, I'm really grateful.""When he said you needed my help, I was more than eager to assist. I'm just glad I could help.""You know, I am really happy I decided to make you my personal assistant." Jordan was very competent when it came to working, even more than Steve was, but there was one place she was lacking greatly… and that was her social aspect.Steve knew how to cheer a person up and being around him always made the room more lively. But Jordan believed in going straight to business. She believed that once she was at work, the only thing sh
115. Family Meeting.
Meredith had trouble sleeping all night because of two reasons. The first one, Jason still hadn't replied to her offer and it was making her feel anxious. The second reason was because Josh had called her the night before and he said he wanted to see her. He said he realized how harsh he sounded and he wanted to apologize. He also said she didn't have to go to his place and if she was feeling unsafe in letting him visit her that they could just go to a cafe to talk. Joshua was her best friend and she didn't like fighting with him, but another part of her was feeling scared to see him. "Well since it's going to be a public place, I guess it's fine." She texted him and asked him to meet her at a cafe that wasn't too far from the mansion.When he arrived, he was smiling brightly, looking like the Josh she used to know. "Thank you for agreeing to see me." He said as he sat across her."It's okay.""I must admit, I lost my temper there for a while, and it made me go out of line. I'm sorr
114. For Infinity.
"You're free to go.""What? Did someone settle my bail? Was it my daughter?" "Just get out already, or maybe you're already used to the lifestyle here? It's totally fine by me if you want to stay a while longer."Mabel's response was an irritated look, followed by a nod of disapproval. "Where do I get my things?" She asked. "At least get out of your cell first, then you get your things." The warder led her out of her cell and back to the reception, where she was asked to write her name down and some other information. Then another officer brought her purse, jewelry and her phone that were taken from her the day she was detained.She went outside, hoping to see Lauren or Marcus waiting with a car but neither of them were there. She took out her phone and was about to dial Lauren when she noticed her car pull up at the front of the station. "Mother?" She seemed surprised to see her mother out of prison already. "How did you get out? Did Marcus come here?""You mean, it wasn't you?"
113. Promise Of Love.
Jason was feeling skeptical on whether it was okay to invite Marcus or not. Without his family involved, Marcus was a good person and Jason wanted to keep working with him and he didn't know why but he was getting the feeling that he had changed. But what if he hadn't? What if Marcus was still the same person? There were lots of what if questions that could hinder their friendship and even their work relationship. But Jason decided to trust him. He texted him and personally invited him to the ceremony, and to his surprise, Marcus replied almost immediately, saying he wouldn't miss it for the world.Jason texted him the venue and time and even told him the dress code as well. then just as he was done texting him, he received a call from his not so favorite cousin in France."What do you want Meredith?""What do you mean by that question? Didn't you see the video I posted?""So?""You know what it's about, right?""And if I do?""Then I'm also guessing that it would be bad if I were t
112. Change Of Path.
Marcus had been thinking about his family for a few days and the conclusion he was always arriving at was not a good one. All his life, he had always tried his best to be the good son, the best child he could be to his parents. He was quiet, obedient and he always made sure he came in top in his studies. He never did anything to get on his parent's bad side, neither did he ever taint their image. If anything, he was the perfect child.They say all teenagers always have a rebellious phase, but he never did, he was always properly behaved.His father never really had their time so he leaned to his mother's side, always wanting to please her, to make her happy, to make her proud of him, and eventually… he became his mother's pet.His childhood, his teenage years, and even some of this adult life was dedicated to making sure his mother was proud of him, making sure she loved him. He didn't think about anything else. Not the life he could live for himself, not the name he could make for h
111. Spontaneous Outing.
For their date, Jason wanted to do something that would be memorable for both of them but he didn't know what. He tried long and hard to decide on where they could go, but nothing came to mind.Erika still insisted that they just went back to the mansion to prepare and look after his grandfather and the twins, but Jason knew that was because she was not having fun yet. So he had to fix that. At the moment, their car was currently parked at the gas station where Jason decided they stop for a refill, but it was just to give himself more time to think. He had never really think about it, but deep down, it felt like he had been anticipating the day that they would go on such a date. A day where they could do whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted to. A day where he didn't have to worry about work, and she didn't have to worry about looking after the store. A day where they could just be a couple, just two people enjoying all the sweetness life had to offer. Obviously it was impos
110. The Date.
Jason was skeptical when his ex brother in law suddenly asked for his help, but he decided to trust him, of course he was not going to let his guard down though. "Need my help with what?" He asked."Like I said, we can't talk here. Let's find somewhere more private.""Can't we just go in?""You mean in the bakery? No thanks. I would rather keep my distance from baked food. I know how hard I had to work to get this body, I can't risk jeopardizing it again."Jason smiled at his statement, he remembered when he first met Lauren, then Marcus had just been her chubby, cake loving baby brother. She said he was obsessed with cake and that was the reason he gained much weight in such a short period. The reason Marcus stopped eating sweets was because other kids made fun of his size, and the girl he liked back then called him a fatso and said she could never be with a guy like him. "Right." He said simply. "So where do you want to go?""Personally I would prefer it if we just spoke in my car
