The Revenge of The Worthless son in law 87. Joshua.
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

NEW YORK.THE HOME OF DAVID SINCLAIR."Mr Sinclair, there is a lady outside who claims she needs an audience with you.""Can you not see that I am in the middle of something? Ask her to come back some other time. It is probably one of those ladies who come to offer their 'services' for money or fame, and I am nowhere near that mood.""That was what I told her as well sir, but she insisted on seeing you. She said she has a proposal for you, and that it was one you would want to hear.""A proposal eh?... Very well then. Escort her in.""Right away sir." The tall and heavily built guard bowed to his boss before exiting the study room. The lady in question had been asked to wait in the compound of the mansion but when he went back outside, she was nowhere in sight. "Hey!" He called for the guard by the gate."Yes sir?""Where is that lady who wanted to see the boss?""Uh no idea sir. After you went in, I asked her to stand right here.""Well then where is she?!!""Right here!" She answere

NEW YORK.NYPD Station."She said what?!!""She said if I bring her Phil, she would drop the charges against you.""Absolutely not! I will not stand for that, Phil belongs to you and not that little slut. Don't do it, I will find some other way to get myself out of this unfortunate predicament.""How, mother? How do you plan on doing that? Neither Marcus nor father are willing to help me on this issue and I have no one else to turn to for help. We have no other choice.""This is not right Lauren, she is the one at fault so why should you have to give up your husband to be?""Okay first, stop calling Phil my husband to be! You and I both know that I have no intention of ever getting married to that man. I would rather die single!And second, none of this would be happening if you had just done your job right!""What is that supposed to mean?""Mother you are not a child. You were going to someone's house to kill her and you didn't think it was necessary to cover your face. Then again,

FEANCE. "You are the root of all the problem, so why don't you just do us all a favor and die. Just die, that way we can all be happy. I'm sure Jason would feel better without the extra baggage, because that is all you are to him. Extra baggage."When Meredith said that, Erika felt a sharp pain in her chest, and it wasn't just because she felt hurt that she was talking to her in such an offensive manner, it was because deep down in her heart… Erika knew that Meredith was just saying the things she used to think about.When she first met Jason, she used to feel bad for him because it was obvious that he was doing the best he could to make money, and things were not going the way he wanted. He was always working hard, and he was always ready to do any extra work, as long as it could earn him an extra pay. She understood him because she was like that as well.Asides from managing her parent's store, Erika was always available whenever there was extra work to do, she wasn't lazy and she

FLASHBACK.SEVENTEEN YEARS AGO.THE HOME OF THE EVANS."Julian, this is madness!""Madness? Tell me what is so mad in me wanting to make money?""By kidnapping someone else's son? This is not making money Julian, this is committing a crime, and I will not be a part if it!""Suit yourself brother, but don't come running back to me when I am busy spending all the money I make from this deal." "And where do you think you are going?""To my room, where else?""Did you not hear what I just said? I just said I do not want any part in this nonsense. Meaning there is no place for you or your girlfriend in my house.""Your house? Did you forget that our father owns this house? And that means I have just the same amount of right as you do.""And did you forget that after our father died, you were not given a share of his property? He left his company and this house to me. Did you forget?""Oh so that is the card you want to pull? Is that it?""Julian, regardless of the fact that we are only ha

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

"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
