The Son-in-law's Revenge Chapter One
"Elijah, come here this very minute." Elijah groaned deeply before turning his head to face the source of the voice. He already knew who the voice belonged to, but he turned to look at the person's face anyway. Elijah was wiping down the table used by previous customers who just left the bar, when Mark, the head waiter, called his name. He swiped the table he was cleaning one more time, grabbed the napkin, and walked towards Mark. He was fully aware that Mark hated him, but he didn't care. He couldn't really blame the guy. Deep down Elijah knew that he would probably despise this part of him as well because this version of him was careless and had a terrible fashion sense. He had never received any employee award at the bar, the place he worked, but that was the least of his concerns. He walked up to Mark and stood in front of him. He clasped his hands and bowed his head as a form of respect. "Sir, you called me," Elijah said. Mark grumbled as he took in Elijah's appearance. His u

Bianca's naked body was among the many others gathered there. She couldn't even see him because she was on her knees in front of another man, her eyes closed, as she pleased him with her mouth and her hands while moaning loudly.'What the fuck?' Elijah thought. He ran his hands over his face twice then blinked a couple of times at the image before him. He tried to open his mouth to speak, but no sound came out. He was tongue-tied. This was the very woman he had assumed was pure, innocent, and good. This was the woman behind his sleepless nights while devising procedures and systems to help her family business expand. But here she was, with no care in the world, basically offering her body and mouth, quite literally, to another man in order to get a business collaboration. Elijah's breath began to come in short, fast pants, and his hands still gripping the handle of the service cart tightly turned white. He did not wish to cause a scene, not with all the nakedness surrounding him. He

Elijah woke to the feel of cold water on his body. He opened his eyes and tried to adjust his vision to his surroundings, but everything appeared to have been turned upside down. He tried to move his legs but he was unable to. Elijah glanced at his unmoving legs, and what stared back at him was the ceiling. 'What the hell.' A puzzled look crossed his face.He tilted his head to one side, then to the other side. Then it dawned on him that he was hanging upside down from the ceiling. He opened his mouth to speak up but what came out were mumbled words. A silver tape had been used to cover his mouth. He tried to speak again, but more incoherent words came out. He was about to try again when he received a snack on the back of his head. "You are awake," a familiar voice said. Elijah became aware of the footsteps circling behind him. When the person finished circling, he stopped and appeared in front of Elijah. It was the face of the man Elijah had seen Bianca in an intimate position with
The Son-in-law's Revenge Chapter Four
The sound of a constant beep stirred Elijah up. He opened his eyes slowly as he tried to adjust to the lighting in the room. He heard the beeping sound again and he opened his mouth to complain, mumbling words at the sound. He carefully turned his head to the side, noticing a white wall and a wide window that did not look familiar. Then he turned to the other side and he saw a tube that extended from his hand to an IV bag, which made him realize that he was in the hospital.As he glanced at his hand, something white underneath his gaze caught his attention. He looked down and saw that his legs were in a white cast, raised, and he began to remember everything that had happened, but not the details of how he had gotten to the hospital. The thought of Bianca made him frown. All he felt at the thought of her was hatred. The position he had met her in, in that room was imprinted in his mind. He tried to think of other things, but all he could think about was Bianca and everything he had go
The Son-in-law's Revenge Chapter Five
Bianca had filed for divorce. Elijah was not completely stunned by the divorce because she had openly referred to him as her ex-husband inside all that disgusting nakedness. However, he was angry at how quickly the divorce papers had gotten to him. She couldn't even wait to present it to him personally, so she went through his friend."Is she that desperate to get rid of me from her life? For something that just happened, the divorce papers came in really fast."Elijah said, his upper lip curled in distaste and disdain, as he placed the papers on the side table. Marcus sighed, "It shows that she was prepared to divorce you man, yesterday just presented her with the right opportunity to pull it through. I'm not sure I should even be saying this, but she called me last night to come pick it up at the bar where you work."Elijah remained quiet. The wheels in Elijah's head began to turn, looking for ideas on how he would make Bianca and her partner suffer. So after he had been tossed into
The Son-in-law's Revenge Chapter Six
Elijah was in his room inside his grandfather's estate, gazing out the window. The mansion was one of the biggest and highest in Connecticut.'Elijah, you won't be able to use your legs for a while.' Elijah swung his hands to the side and threw the bottle of brandy he was holding against the wall. He wheeled himself away from the window, knowing that one of his grandfather's maids would come in a few minutes to clean everything up.This is what Bianca and Fred had turned him into. He had been in this state for almost two months now. Which had given him enough time to learn the name of the man who had put him in a wheelchair. He had spent two weeks in the hospital, before Ethan discharged him, sending him away in a wheelchair and a physiotherapist to assist him get back on his feet.Elijah was not proud of his behavior and his current physical state, he knew he was making it difficult for the physiotherapist who had been assigned to him. In fact, he was not making things easy for anyon
The Son-in-law's Revenge Chapter Seven
With a rage incomparable to the one he had felt on the evening he had caught Bianca's cheating ass, he threw the bottle he was holding at the wall once again. He grabbed his laptop and tossed it in the same direction. He yelled at the top of his lungs and his door flew open, revealing two terrified faces, Cora and the maid who had previously come up to clean. He could see it in the eyes of the maid. She thought he was crazy, while the eyes of his sister held anger and irritation. Cora turned away from him to look at the mess he had created behind him. When her eyes fell on the laptop, she walked further into the room and bent down to pick up the laptop. The laptop was already broken, with the screen divided in half, the top half was working and showed the headline of what angered Elijah, while the bottom half had gone dark. Cora walked over to Elijah, and slowly read aloud the text that her eyes had landed on. "The beautiful heiress, Bianca Gardini, and the most sought-after billion
The Son-in-law's Revenge Chapter Eight
"My handsome grandbaby." came a deep voice, as a cane struck the ground from the entrance of the office Elijah was sitting in. Elijah turned to face his grandfather, Lucas, who had a broad smile on his face. He had been sitting in his grandfather's office for almost five minutes, waiting for his arrival."Grandpa, I'm not a baby anymore.""Oh, you're not. My eyes must be playing tricks on me then."Lucas’ eyes twinkled as he spoke to Elijah, and his lips twitched as if he was trying to stop himself from smiling too much. Elijah squinted his eyes at Lucas as he replied. "We both know that your eyes are working quite alright. All I'm saying is that calling me a grandbaby at 30 years of age is embarrassing."Lucas walked into the room with a style in his steps, as he used his cane that had a golden eagle's head at the top of it for support. He moved around the desk and sat in his office chair. "Till the day I die, you will remain my grandbaby." Elijah scoffed. Lucas picked up the pack o

Elijah and Cora glanced at the face of the woman they had not seen since the fatherless charity function. Clara, clothed in fur in this heat wave, her lips were crimson red, stood in between her sons, as usual. "You both are just staring at me like it's the first time you are using your eyes properly," Clara said. She turned to look into the glass window that Elijah had been staring through before she came in. "So what's the situation?" Elijah and Cora did not respond, the only sound that filled the silence was the shuffling feet of nurses and doctors going in and out of patient wards. "Have you both suddenly gone deaf?" Clara asked. Elijah gritted his teeth and stepped away from the glass, moving closer to Cora. "Why are you here Clara?" "The last time I checked I am still family, and that old man laying right there," Clara said, pointing at Lucas, "is still my father-in-law." "No one wants you here.""Oh, I can see that. But I am not going anywhere. Besides Lucas, I'm the secon

When Cora heard Elijah's voice, She turned towards the arms of her brother and buried her face in his chest. The tall gene was in the family and it had not passed her by. When the average height of ladies barely reached Elijah's shoulders, Cora's head went past it a bit. Elijah wrapped his arms around Cora and tried to calm her down, whispering sweet nothings and promises that everything would be back to normal in no time, in her ears. He knew he shouldn't be giving her these kinds of promises, definitely not when he didn't even understand what his eyes had just seen behind the glass windowCora eventually relaxed, and Elijah pulled her body away from his slightly, so he could look into her eyes. "Now Cora, take a deep breath and walk me through what happened to Lucas." "Elijah, Grandpa is in a coma." "Well that explains why he is currently looking like that, in a hospital bed, but it doesn't explain what happened to him. Do you know what happened?"Cora nodded in response to his q

"What is going on? That's Grandpa's hospital." "Just come, as soon as you can," Cora replied and hung up. Elijah put his phone back into his pocket and Kira asked, "What's wrong?" "I don't know. That was my sister and she told me to get to Connecticut, to our family hospital right this moment.""But that's not possible, you can't. Give me a moment, let me see how fast I can book a flight for you." Kira said, grabbing her laptop that was on a table, closest to her."Huh? What are you doing?" Elijah stared at Kira in confusion. "Booking a flight for you. You know, that thing that you would need to get yourself from here all the way to Connecticut." Despite feeling shocked after Cora's call, Elijah chuckled at Kira. "I have a private jet, Kira." "What? You…you have a what!?""A private jet.""I heard you the first time. Okay, I knew you were rich, but I didn't realize that you are rich enough to own a jet." "Well, I believe that from today you will know me better, and I, you." El

Within a few minutes, Elijah was banging on Kira's door, demanding that she open up and let him in. The minutes counted and it appeared like it was taking forever, so he banged on the door a few more times, and shouted, "Kira, open up.""For Christ's sake, will you calm down, I said I was coming." She shouted back as she opened the door for him to enter. "What's going on?" Elijah asked."I should be the one asking you that. You demanded that I send my address and then you came over here trying to wake the entire neighborhood up. Did you change your drug supplier?""I don't do drugs, and I don't understand. I heard you sniffing on the phone." "And so you hurried here because you thought I was crying?" Kira looked confused."Were you not?""I was. But that's not the point right now. I'm saying that you hurried down here because you thought I was crying?" Elijah rocked on his feet, his actions just now dawning on him. Kira chuckled. "Elijah, I'm no damsel in distress, or at least I'm

"And I…am not mincing words.""I'll love to see you try Fred.""Oh, you asked for it, Elijah. What ye seek, ye shall find."Elijah watched Fred laugh as he walked backward, away from him. His eyes remained trained on him until Fred and his men cleared out of his sight. Elijah's teeth clenched together and his nose flared as he took in the situation of the site and his workers. "I'm very sorry everyone. I deeply apologize for all that has happened today. Please let us all go home and I promise that Vicky will settle you for all your troubles. Thank you very much." Elijah shouted, so that everyone could hear him loud and clear, and a couple of people echoed "Thank you, sir."Then he turned to Vicky, who wore an angry expression."This is the second time you have been caught in a crossfire Vicky, and I'm sincerely sorry. I have put you in harm's way twice, and I will understand if you want to walk away from all of this."Vicky's shoulders seemed to relax as Elijah spoke. She nodded soft

Elijah's POVAfter his dinner with Kira, Elijah locked himself in a hotel room with a redhead. One of the flings that he had set aside when he found satisfaction with Mia. They had been going at it all night and day, for two days now, and each time, Elijah had pushed away the thoughts and images of a certain woman out of his mind. He had not intended to end his dinner night with Kira in the arms of another woman, but he got restless immediately after he got back home. His body desired a particular person that they couldn't have, and so the best solution for him had been to bury himself in another woman's arms. Elijah never understood his burning need to be intimate with a woman after Bianca. He had concluded that it could be because she had denied him intimacy during the years that they were married while she was freely giving it to that older-looking man. Elijah was lying on his back, about to drift off into sleep, when he felt the light touch of a lady's hand slowly crawling up h

Kira's POVKira was driving to pick up Ian from the airport, and she was reminiscing about her dinner with Elijah two nights before. She was attracted to him in a kind of way, but being in a relationship was not a top priority for her, especially not with a man with mystery and trouble written all over. She assumed Elijah felt the same way because he would flirt with her one moment and then become serious the next. He had told her that they would devise a plan and work toward it, and she was okay with that idea as long as it destroyed Fred. She had ideas of her own, but she wanted to listen to what Elijah would come up with.Kira longed to know why Elijah was after Fred, but she doubted he would open up to her easily because she saw him as an onion with multiple layers. Kira was finally at the airport and she saw her brother standing outside, scanning the area, possibly looking for her car. She drove up in front of him, came to a halt, and rolled down the window. "Hey big bro, get i

Elijah was seated in his restaurant, waiting for Kira. After the call, he texted her that they should meet at EM Restaurant, and it surprised him that he was feeling nervous about seeing a woman. Elijah looked up from his table to see Kira approaching him in a black body con dress and black stilettos, her burgundy hair adding color to her outfit. As she approached, he rose from the chair and went to pull out a chair for her to sit on. "Oh wow. Thank you. You are quite the gentleman." Kira stated this while gushing at him, her hand on her chest. Elijah chuckled because he knew she was just trying to mock him. "You are five minutes late." "Just five minutes? That's not even enough payback for ignoring my calls." Kira scoffed."I thought we spoke about this." "And…? Because I'm so sweet and nice, I should not bring it up anymore?" "Okay. I apologize again." Elijah said this with his hands raised in surrender. "I'm genuinely sorry and it will not happen again.""It had better not."

Elijah's POVElijah was walking out of the apartment he had rented for Dylan. It was close to Dylan's school and more comfortable than the small space he had to share with three other boys his age. Elijah had gone to visit him and the place looked uncomfortable to live in.Dylan was supposed to meet him at the apartment, but he had called to say that he would be late because he had to meet up with his group for a project, so Elijah decided to take a quick walk around the neighborhood for a short time. His phone rang from his pocket, and when he pulled it out he saw "Kira's" name displayed on the screen. He locked his phone and returned it to his pocket. Today marked the seventh time in five days that he had ignored Kira's call. He did not want to speak to her until Marcus found concrete evidence on her that he would use against her and tell her that he knew all about her plan to betray him. His guard was up, and he was not about to let those walls down anytime soon, especially not f
