The Rise Of The Despiced Son-in-law

The Failed Son-in-law

At that very point, Mark realized that his faded suit had given up his identity as a wretched man, he gnashed his teeth in anger and without a second thought, he raised his crutches and pushed his way into the hall. One of the bouncers tried to hold him down but Mark bite his hands, causing pain to the bouncer who groaned angrily, forcing his way into the hall was the easy part but he was totally unprepared for the glares he got.

The music stopped at once, and everyone stared scornfully at the lunatic who forced his way into a sacred occasion.

"Who's this bastard?" an elderly man with a glass of wine called out harshly

"Throw him out at once!" hate comments flew about and Mark frowned, Elena bought him the suit to make him blend well, but his stubbornness had placed him in a seat of disrespect.

Elena saw Mark from a distance and bit her lower lip in utter anger, she didn't believe her husband had the guts to dress poorly to an occasion of mighty millionaires and billionaires, she was pissed to see her husband receiving hate speech from the crowd of exotic guests.

"Isn't he the son-in-law of Mrs Judith and the husband of Elena?" another guest asked

they murmured and before Mark could utter a word, the bouncers stopped him and hit him hard from behind, he fell to the ground with a loud thud. He groaned in pain as they held him aggressively like a fugitive, they cuffed him at once and he regretted ever accepting the invitation.

"Leave him at once!" Elena spoke up for her husband

the guests gasped with shock but Mark smiled, knowing that his wife stood up for him in his hour of shame.

"The rumors are true, your husband is still alive"

"Such a wretched soul, I would kill myself than have this kind of man for a husband" different speeches came from the crowd and Mark grew angry with every minute of disrespect.

"Please be seated, let's not allow the presence of one man ruin this beautiful event, Mrs Judith will certainly not forgive anyone who tries to ruin her day" the master of occasion spoke out

All eyes turned to him and he smiled, knowing that he had captured their attention, Elena felt relieved and left the hall at once, she couldn't stand the presence of her husband and she was more pisseed by the fact that he disobeyed her and wore a suit that reminded her of their wedding.

"we do have a lot of guests here and I'm so happy to announce your names and have everyone here welcome you to this sacred birthday party" The MC said

Mark couldn't look at the stage because he knew the MC was bound to disgrace him, he had watched reviews of his criticism and cruel way of disgracing people.

"Firstly, let's start with the wretched husband of Elena Brooks, I do feel pity for her, living with half of a man is not a blessing I would wish on my enemies" He revealed and the guests burst into laughter

Mark frowned and hide his face from shame but he soon felt a tender touch on his shoulder, he looked back and realized it was his beautiful wife but she had an angry look on her face, he could tell she was angry at him.

"why did you choose to disgrace me?, after spending $3,000 to get you a perfect suit that will make you blend in just fine, you went ahead to wear a suit that reveals your poverty to the world. I'm deeply ashamed to call you my husband" she said and walked out immediately before Mark could open his mouth

despite taking his seat at the corner of the hall, he wasn't comfortable as he kept receiving ugly glares from different men and women, he soon regretted not wearing the suit his wife bought for him but it was already too late to change it. He checked his old watch and realized it would take him an hour if he wanted to go change the suit and Judith would be furious with him for ditching her birthday.

"let's have some wine and make toast to the esteemed celebrant and to me, the master of this ceremony, my humble name is, Diego Adalberto" the mc revealed and everyone raised a glass of wine to make a toast

Mrs Judith came out looking so astonishing, and from where Mark sat, he could vividly see how beautiful and elegant his mother-in-law had become. He could hardly recognize her with the diamond chain and beautiful layer of makeup on her face, he swallowed hard and stared at the pitiful gift he had gotten from the mall.

"I'm indeed very happy to see all of you here, my Son-in-law's, my daughters and of course, my friends and business partners" Mrs Judith spoke and the hall went silent

"I appreciate you all" she added and received an uproar of happy cheers

"and speaking of Son-in-law's, let's welcome Mr Mark Williams. He's a man that can't go unnoticed" Diego said with a mischievous smile on his face

Everyone turned to Mark who sat quietly, Judith frowned on seeing the ugly suit he wore to her birthday, it was an insult to her pride and name. She took some steps to Mark's table and stared scornfully at him while clenching her fist hard.

"so this is the suit you can afford to wear on a day as special as this?, after all I have done to make you happy, you decided to wear this ugly looking suit to my birthday" Judith asked

Mark grew speechless as the eyes that preyed on his skin were more than he could count, he took a deep breath and stared at Judith's face

"I'm deeply sorry, mother-in-law, this is the only suit I have in my wardrobe, it holds precious memories" Mark revealed

"you should have come to me for a suit, I would have given you an old suit of mine that will at least cover your wretched and poverty-stricken body", Bruce said at loud and everyone burst into laughter while shame engulfed Mark like a plague.
