The Son-in-Law's Revenge Against the Elites

Chapter 007 - Rudi Rowe

The city is still the same as before. Heavy traffic. Pickpockets. Vendors on the side of the street. Women having a catfight on the side. It is chaos. Yet, there is a certain sense of comfort in him. Rohan has been here for a few months. He’s been studying the elites, taking information, and planning his next moves.

Rohan walks down the busy streets. He spots a few men in black suits going to his destination: the fitness center. He follows them until they enter the gym.

Rohan enters the lobby and looks around. There is a woman behind the counter checking people out. He approaches.

“Good morning, I am Rudi Rowe. I am here to apply as one of the gym trainers or cleaners,” Rohan starts. “I just need a job.”

The woman looks at him from head to toe and back again. “If you can wait there,” she says, pointing at one of the couches. “You are just in time. I believe the boss is looking for a new personal trainer.”

Rohan nods and obeys the woman. He sits on the couch and replays his separation from Clete. It’s already been a month. The old man still advised him not to take revenge, but no one will be able to stop him now.

“Mr. Rudi?” A man wearing a suit comes up to him. “I am Mr. Dugan. Please follow me.”

He leads him to another room where three men are seated along the hall. They look at Rohan with scrutiny. They are applying for the same position. All have different backgrounds–Some have experience, while others have none.

The door bursts open, and James Yu, his first target, emerges. James owns a chain of fitness centers all over the country. He is a model and a repeat participant in a lot of reality shows that focus on physical prowess.

Walton may be a mighty clan, but that’s mostly because other clans support them. The Twelve Elites, they are called. It is a powerhouse of people below the age of 45 who support each other so they will continue to rule the country behind the shadows. Kendrick’s political ambition is raised by the same group of Elites.

“These are the candidates?” he asks.

“Yes,” Mr. Dugan answers.

“Just hire all of them.”

“But—”

“No buts. I will be late for my show.” James turns and leaves.

Mr. Dugan clears his throat. “You heard him. Let’s get started!”

*****************

Rohan has been working hard since the day he entered the gym. He has clients now, but during his free time, he works out. Now, he has become fit, more robust, and more muscular. Perfect for all his plans.

One night, after work, he goes to the bar next to the gym and orders himself a drink. He takes a sip when someone taps him on the shoulder.

“Hey, pretty boy,” a woman whispers.

Rohan is not a pretty boy. Far from it, actually. But he doesn’t correct her because she is attractive. He looks at her and smiles. She is tall and slender, with long legs and a nice ass.

“What’s your name?” she asks.

“Rudi Rowe,” he answers.

She grins wickedly. “Want to have fun with me tonight?” she asks. She places his hand on his shoulders and comes closer to him. Her perfume tickles his nose and makes him feel lightheaded.

“I can’t. I have work tomorrow.”

“What’s your job?”

“I am a personal trainer at Yu’s gym.”

“Oh, that posh gym.” She laughs. “You must be good if you are working there.”

Rohan chuckles. “I am terrific.”

She runs her fingers through his hair, making him shiver. “I bet you are.”

He stands up, and the woman scowls. “Come visit me at the gym. We can talk more then.”

The woman giggles. “So, you are sitting alone so you can get clients?”

“Something like that,” he says, smiling.

“Well, maybe we should go somewhere else.”

Rohan leans towards her and places a quick kiss on her cheeks. “If you visit me at the gym, maybe we can talk about meeting somewhere private after that.”

The woman giggles. “You are such a tease!”

Rohan sips his drink and walks off. It’s how he gets his client lately. He needs to be the top trainer, so James will notice him. He needs to gain his trust.
