They watched the scenario unfold till the men vacated their manor alongside.Mae wouldn't stop sighing, Pamela let out her annoyance on her husband, reminding him how terrible of a person he is and how badly he treated the Luka too'You are blaming me for treating him like that when you literally did worse?!' Mr Pammad shouted at his wife.'You are the initiated the idea. I would have treated him much better if it weren't for you. I liked him before. You poisoned my mind' she snapped back."He's a bastard, how do you expect me to love a child from my wife's affair??""Still you could have just accepted him.""I did that, didn't I? Besides, tell me? Did you know? Who his father is?""No." Pamela shook her head negatively, "No one knew of his existence. I tried searching for the man but I didn't find him, you were there the whole time. Why are you asking me?"'Talk about shifting blames' Mr
The Son-in-law's Revenge Half brother
Weeks LaterTwo Weeks earlier, Luka Petrovic's life had taken an unexpected turm for absolute good. For the first time in his entire existence, he felt like he belonged here, he had a man who stood as his father figure. It all happened too fast. Too Quick. No one would have seen it coming.The men has made arrangements to take him home as soon as the doctors confirmed he was ready to go. He had been brought to the Vanderbilt's home. The building lay out was nothing like the Pammad's mamsion. Luka had concluded that the Pammad's mansion was too exaggerated, his new home was beyond that. The Vanderbilt's Manor looked like an estate on its own. It had different areas. Garage, a private pool, private bar rooms, gymnasium, private cinema house, garden. Every goddamn thing! It was that huge.Maids and guards were stationed everywhere. Expensive furnitures, art works, chandeliers, decorated every room in the buildings. This mini estate has everything a trilliomiare's house could possess.'
The Son-in-law's Revenge Esme
"For goodness sake dad!" Esme screamed, "Don't interfere with my personal life for please. I am old enough. I'm not a seven year old anymore! I think you've done more than enough. She paused and took a deep breath, "I should be able to do whatever I want."They were in the second living room, one specially used for family meetings like this. Her parents were seated next to each other on a cushion chair, both of them calmly watching her while she paced around in annoyance.The gray colour of the room did nothing to pacify her feelings, neither did the blinds or the small art room at the corner of the room.Coming home for the weekend was the worst decision she ever made. After the incident with Luka, she'd also left to avoid her parents judging eyes. They knew about how the project waa all Luka's idea, but she couldn't have avoided not coming home, especially when they mentioned it was a matter of life and death.Esme stopped pacing and turned back to look at her parents, her voice we
The Son-in-law's Revenge I am a Pammad
ESMEFIVE DAYS LATERI walked into my parents house, scratch that, I was shoved in to my father's house. I was on my way to Indonesia when I was kidnapped at the airport. I should have known it wasn't going to be easy.As I neared the living room, walking in fully, I heard voices. It sounded like they had visitors. My heart hammered against my chest as I hoped it wasn't who I thought it was.I frowned, gingerly entering the living room."There you are!" Dad stands up, his face lifted with excitement.Fake. I noticed."What's going on?! Was it you?" I whispered harshly into his ears as he hugged me."I warned you." He whispered back, "Your husband is an angry man." Then in a louder voice, he announced, "These are your in-laws!"My world seemed to stop then. My in-laws?!"Dad! You didn't even ask me first, what if I had gotten a fiance!" I yell frustratedly."No, you haven't" Dad smiled, pushing me forward.I scrutinize the new faces, I don't recognize anyone. And neither looks young."
The Son-in-law's Revenge His own accord
Ethan waited at the bus stop, holding two coffee bags. One for Isabel and the other for Anthony. Due to the fact that he was going to make an appearance in Gandur, he wore a face cap and nose mask to conceal his face well. Isabel, of course, wouldn't want him to disgrace her by showing his face in the company without a good disguise.Ethan checked his time again. The bus was taking too long to arrive. 'Hi there, Mr Logan. Need a hand?'Ethan assessed the 6ft man in front of him. 'No. I'm okay'The stranger extended his hands for a shake. 'I know you must be surprised about how I know who you are?'Ethan shrugged his shoulders 'Being surprised is the least emotion I'm feeling now'.. he simply stared at the hands but did not take it. 'Don't you think it's rude to leave the hand of a potential friend hanging?''Don't you think it's unrealistic to expect a stranger return your handshake without properly introducing yourself?'Ethan noticed the set of dimples displayed on the stranger'
The Son-in-law's Revenge Paris
ESME"Yeah." He nods, "you heard correctly.""A coffee shop and a restaurant?!" I screamed internally.Wait Dad set me up with an average man?My thoughts were running everywhere blindly.He must have known Asher is an average man and yet he set me up with him? Just because they want me married?I focused on Asher, even after all these years, he couldn't make a name for himself?I get his family aren't influential, the fact he decided to be poor is what is most baffling."Are you serious?" I asked again.Can someone tell me why my feet feels like it's deep into ice?Oh right! My beer!I looked down at my feet and screamed as loud as I could when I saw blood.Now I could feel the pains.Asher shot up from his seat and made me sit on the kitchen stool."Dang" I glared at him. This was all his fault."Mum."I whimpered softly, pain laced my voice. All these happening to me was their fault. I didn't realize it was almost a crime to be a Pammad.Asher fetched a first aid kit and dressed my
The Son-in-law's Revenge A dream?
A gentle touch on the side of his neck stirred him awake. Delicate fingers started to trail down his exposed abs, causing a tingling sensation within his body. It continued, frantically struggling to undo his pajamas knickers. He batted his eyes open and was even more shocked when he realized it was Isabel doing all of this. He had come to sleep earlier since she didn't come home on time like she promised. He had actually expected her to throw tantrums when she realized he went to bed before she came into the house. He didn't imagine in his wildest dream that she'll come to him sneakily.Something was definitely wrong.. He was certain of it. Before she could go any further, he grabbed both of her tiny wrists, pushed them away from him.. 'What do you think you are doing, Isabel?' Ethan's deep voice enquired, his brows scrunched up in a perplexed way.'What do you think I'm doing, Ethan?' she responded rhetorically, charging him a small smile. Ethan appeared more confused.. 'Are you
The Son-in-law's Revenge Unhappy marriage
ESMEI yawned as I stretched my body. And for a minute I was left worrying how a blanket covered me and how my shoes were off.I felt a bit free, my coat was no longer on my body, leaving me clothed just with my mini gown.I relapsed on the bed again as I sent my hands down inside the blanket to feel what I was actually wearing if it was a mini gown or maybe just my underwear."Ooofff!" I hissed in relief as I felt my tights. He definitely didn't harass me.If he wasn't on the bed then that means he must be awake, but I wasn't hearing any water sound in the bathroom which means he wasn't in the bathroom. For a while I stayed calm, trying to listen, but no, there was no sign of noise coming from the kitchen."What if he is sitting on the couch and looking at me, waiting for when I would get up from my lazy slumber?"For no reason, I felt shy like we were some lovers in a romantic relationship.I stayed calm for a while.Ding!"Don't tell me you're still asleep girlie?"Okay girlie, if

We are here
They were all waiting for one person to arrive. Ruby continued to glare at William, pissed that he was here. “I still don't see any reason why he is here Lukyan.” Ruby called him directly now that everyone present in the room now knows. “We need him to testify against his father in the court later. Besides an enemy of my enemy is a friend even if it's temporary. “ Etham whispered to her. Ruby spared another harsh glance at William who gave her look that told how pleased he was to be her source of discomfort. Ruby thought she's had her share of surprise that day until the AI announced Drogo's presence askimg Lukyan to give them entry. Them because Drogo wasn't alone. Ruby watched the door with expectant eyes as Drogo filed in, followed by Tony and a battered blindfolded man.. Tony pushed the blindfolded man to the floor, blood smeared the it as the man tried to gather himself up. In addition to the blindfolded, his mouth was gagged and his hands were tied behind his back. “A p
A visitor
“You have a visitor Will.” The officer informed him..William frowned, wondering who it could be. Has his father developed a remorse of his un-fatherly actions and wanted to right the wrong?Nah. William shook his head.“Who is it?”It's your uncle.” The officer replied over his shoulder. William halted. His father's brothers didn't give a hoot about family, why would they visit him all of a sudden.“Hey! Hurry up. I ain't got all day.” The officer yelled at him. William wasn't led to the usual visiting room. He was led to a more.lrivaye one hat a detective would use to interrogate a prisoner for details instead. “Who the heck could that caring uncle be?” William wondered out loud as the office urged him into a room.The bloody hell!” William yelled as soon as he saw who was seated waiting for him.Ethan and one other man he didn't know. Ethan looked at the officer and nodded at him to leave them in privacy. “Hey! Hey!!!” William yelled whn this officer locked them in.“I'd prefer
You'll see
The best they could do by themselves was make the study rid of dust so to recieve Mr Alexei Javi who was probably running down this way with his shadow behind.As soon as they were done, theybwere informed of his presence.“Sir Zaitsev, you have a visitor.”“Scan and see if you recognize his face,” Ethan replied the AI with a smile, knowing that it knows who Alexei was. It just simply felt good to be him again.“Alexei Javi, Chairman of Javinsons hotel. Would you like further information on him sir?” it replied.“No, thank you.”“Approve or deny entry?”“Approve.” Minutes later, a man in his seventies still with a youthful energy around hims burst into the room as if the fact that he had been given entry was not enough proof that Lukyan was alive. As soon as he reached the threshold of the study, he halted. Eyes shifted from Droho to Lukyan. “You.” He breathed, staring at Diego. His eyes softened and Justine was filled with relief. “You're here too.”Drogo smiled. “But…” He stared
As you live
Two hours later, Drogo and Ethan were leaving the coastal countryside with flash drives and documents from the smaller rectangular boxes in the treasure chest at the Ivanov's resident. They also didn't leave without having some money transferred to Polina and a promise to visit her again in the future.Now they were headed to Ethan's grandfather's beach house in the rental car.“I'm thinking of having Polina work for us after I resuscitate Belinsky Enterprises. I'm going to focus on how restaurant and food production part.” Ethan shared his thoughts with Drogo who responded with a small smile of approval.They got to the beach house in time. Outside, the building was beauty to behold but Ethan knew that the inside would be crawling with all kinds of creepy and stray things. After his grandfather's death, all of the workers had been dismissed including the housekeeper or do he thought until he saw a hunched figure in a black coat and a checkered print tweed flat cap hurrying out ofa cr
So long
The childlike giggle high-pitched by excitement travelled far thanks to the wind that came with the push and pull of the seawater against the sand, creamy white foam lining the tip. There were three figures playing on the sand, two wore blue shorts and were shirtless while the third one wore a green one with a tank top on. They all had light blonde hair. “I'm counting now!” The third one yelled, sounding feminine. “One! Two! Three! Stop!” The boys froze. They both found it hard to control their laughter as the girl chose which to go after. The game was simple. She had a maximum of three leaps to make it tonome person. If she does touch whichever she picked in those three leaps, then the person touched will replace her in he middle and do his counting. Between the two boys, one could tell which was older very easily. The one on the right hand of the girl was taller and older-looking than the cute little boy on her left who was about his elbow high. They all resembled each other so i
Satisfaction
Isabel's spirit seemed to drop further into despondency with each step she took down the stairs. Wrapped in a wool robe and her hair in a towel of the same material, her finger traced the silver railing of her stairs as she descended slowly. She's just had the loneliest heartbreaking bath. Despite the essence she had added to her bath water that was meant to help her feel great afterwards, her body still ached. And parts of her she couldn't exactly identity. She was sure if one thing however. That she was numb from head to toe. She's done enough crying to last a year, her tear ducts were probably tired and wouldn't produce any more of the salty liquid even if it was prompted to. Her slow descent finally came to an end and she had eventually reached the end of the stairs. Her eyes roamed the house at an unrushed pace, slowly taking everything in and noting how empty—super empty the house seemed to have become. Could one person really make such an impact? She asked herself, huggin
Silver
“You know, you could have just let Ruby drive us to wherever this Thai restaurant is than is having to ride in your car.” Ruby looked outside as she strapped the seatbelt across her chest, silently praying that no one else saw her go into his car. “Thank you but I'd rather not be seen in a Cosmo purple car. Who drives such a colour around nowadays.” Tony put on his seatbelt to and leaned forward to assess the tightness.“Uh excuse me, it's called being unique.”“You're certainly standing out.” Tony teased. “Well sorry if you can't stand a little colour because you're used to the greyness of your world.” She tapped the side of the vehicle lightly with her knuckle for emphasis.“Silver.” Tony corrected as he pulled out of the lot. “It's silver Lolly.”Ruby's eyes jutted together. “Lolly?”“Your car looks like grapefruit flavour so…” Tony explained.Ruby opened her mouth as if to say “the audacity!” “Look, I have varied taste. I'm not restricted to a colour okay. You know what, when n
Guy in black suit
Ruby's body perked up the instant she saw him wall out of the building. “Go after him!” She tapped the shoulder of the driver's seat eagerly.“Who?” Jena asked.“The guy in the black suit.”Jena scanned the parking lot of Logan Industrial Group and found he oerosj her boss was suddenly enthusiastic about. “Tony?” She blurted out thoughtlessly, wincing quietly when she realized her slip-up.“You know him?” Ruby watched Tony speak to someone in his phone. He looked attractive with his hands on his waist and his face switching to serious to slightly less serious as he conversed with whoever was on the other side of the line. Today was sunny and his gelled hair was shiny under the rays of the sun. “Yeah. Tony Ecaudor. Just by name. You know from people I've worked with in the past.” Jenner did her best not to stammer and raise further questions from Ruby. She watched Tony end the phone call and got out his car keys.“Quick! Drive up to him. Quick quick!”Jenner did her fastest starting
Signed
Isabel didn't wait for the car to completely stop. She couldn't. The words were still playing over and over in her head. “Ethan signed the divorce papers sweetheart. You're now a free woman.” As soon as her father had said those words, the driver had stopped the car while she asked—rather, demanded what he was talking about and why the divorce papers had her signature on it even when she had no recollection of ever signing the divorce papers. “You don't remember? It was the day we ate together at the restaurant.” Her father had answered before closing the door, leaving her even more consterned.She rushed past the guards and servants welcoming her, not bothering about her belongings still in the boot of the car. A light shower has started, miniature droplets of it getting soaked up by her blazer. She burst through the front door, eyes wide and searching as she scanned the premises. It was empty and her heart did a painful lurch. Next, she ran up the stairs to the bedroom and with
