The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 33 | Can't you just spend the money?
Meanwhile, Bella was in her room, laying on the king-sized bed as she idly pressed her phone, engaged in a series of funny reels after the maid left. Ding! Ding!A message notification popped up on her phone, and she hurriedly checked it, assuming Alex had sent her some money to make her happy. She swiftly opened the message, only to be taken aback by it being a normal message, not a credit alert. She scoffed, almost ignoring the message until her gaze landed on the word ‘Ballroom.’Hastily, Bella returned to the message, reading it carefully, as it caused her pink lips to part in a slow, contemplative motion.[Dear recipient of this message, if you are reading these lines, it means you are a valued member of the esteemed Rex family, and it is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the joyous engagement party of MR. RONALD and MRS. VICTORIA who holds a cherished place within this family. Although, the family relationships will be explained later at the engagement
The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 34 | We don't like this hotel one bit
July 1st...Upon reaching the hotel, Alex and Bella stepped out of the car hastily. Alex glanced over at his golden wristwatch, his brows furrowed, before cursing silently. “It’s eight o’clock, Gosh! We are late,”Bella, who was not concerned about their punctuality looked up, smiling sheepishly at her gown before facing Alex with a grin. “Tell me, how do I look?” She asked excitedly.“You look pretty as always, and thanks to your effort to make yourself look perfect, we are late,” Alex muttered under his breath.Bella huffed, “Whatever.”She walked into the grand lobby of the hotel, and Alex followed. A courteous doorman dressed in a tailored uniform welcomed them with a warm smile as he opened the massive double doors for them that led them further into the hotel.Bella and Alex reached the ballroom with no delay, as Bella’s hand was clasped around Alex’s elbow.Along one side of the ballroom, a lavish stage was there, elegantly decorated with lush velvet curtains and adorned with a

With no delay, Neil Young, Ronald’s friend, dialed the emergency service while the others tried to wake Rex, but it was to no avail.“Stay away from him, you bad luck!” Stella spat out, pushing Alex away from Rex’s unconscious body.A few minutes later, an ambulance rushed to the hotel, before rushing Rex into the hospital.The doctors attended to Rex. Meanwhile, Alex returned to his villa since the ambulance rushed to the hospital quickly and he was unable to get the hospital’s name or location. He went to his villa, and the first thing he noticed was Thomas, Evelyn, Ronald, and Stella were also present there.“Foolish kid! You returned to this villa after impersonating Rex’s true heir identity. Aren't you scared of death?” Stella inquired, and Alex sighed.He could not believe everyone would believe Thomas and the DNA test result. He also felt heartbroken, but he walked up the staircase and entered his bedroom, ignoring their glares.To his utmost surprise, Mrs. Vanderbilt, his moth

Alex became speechless, surprised at the sudden slap he was given. Why would Ronald slap him that hard? “How dare you talk back at me, you miserable thing!” Ronald retorted, his voice thundering throughout the villa as Alex became annoyed. Clenching his fists tightly, Alex’s eyes turned red. He didn't want to unleash his anger fueling in him, but Ronald was pushing him to limits that he could not control.“Haha, are you angry? Oh come on, I didn't know trash bags like you get annoyed over true statements,” Ronald uttered sarcastically, intending to mock Alex and make him more annoyed. Instead, Alex calmed himself, reminding himself that Ronald was only treating him badly because Thomas accused him of being an imposter. “Ronald, please. Let’s act more mature here,” Alex spoke softly, hoping Ronald would understand. But instead of that, Ronald flared up.“What do you mean by that?! Do you know what you caused to my engagement party? If Grandma Evelyn didn't plead with the Harrington
The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 37 | Working as a gigolo?
Alex stood in the ward, his heart sinking as he expected Rex to believe him and pull him into a soft embrace. But Rex’s statement struck him like a sharp blade. “What?” Alex uttered, his voice trembling. Stella, with a mocking tone, chimed in. “Finally, someone can talk some sense into that miserable thing,” she sneered, clearly satisfied with Rex’s response.Meanwhile, a smile crept across Thomas’s face. It was barely visible as he discreetly observed the impact of Rex’s statement on Alex. He watched Alex’s eyes turn red as Alex clenched his fists tightly, struggling to contain his emotions, and that made Thomas happy. He was excited that his plan worked perfectly!Feeling disappointed at his father’s statement, Alex turned to leave the ward. However, Rex’s next words shattered his hopes even further. “But just before you leave this ward, let me inform you. I'm calling my lawyer to transfer all the money or property I gave you back to me because you are not my son!”After deliveri

“Gosh! Why did I even call you Alex?! I meant imposter... Or what can I call you?” Thomas spoke proudly, then he stroke his beard, thinking before exclaiming. “Oh yeah! Trash bag! Since you are nothing but a trash bag, I will call you trash bag!”Alex chuckled loudly at Thomas’s words, causing Thomas to furrow his brows with confusion booming in him. “W-why are you laughing?” Thomas questioned, stammering. He assumed that Alex had found a solution to his plan, and he became worried.“I laughed because I was wondering why the managing director of a construction company will be outside so late at night, wasting his time on a man he calls a trash bag,” Alex replied. He crossed his arms, sensing that his statements will make Thomas unhappy.“You annoying trash bag! Don't get on my nerve!” Thomas stuttered. He knew that Alex would only try to talk against him, and the only solution was to silently leave that area since he was done with his plan. He rushed into his car and quickly drove a

The driver had to quickly stop the car, because the way Alex shouted also surprised him.“Mr. Scar on his eye, why did you shout that way?” The driver questioned, and Alex stuttered, recalling that he was supposed to hide his identity. “Nothing, I was just surprised,”The driver hissed loudly, ignoring Alex as he continued to drive.It was only after that that Bella noticed Alex. Upon seeing his face, she glared at him, recalling that Thomas said he was an imposter. She assumed that Alex didn't have a scar over his left eye, and the man seated next to her was the imposter.“Why are you here?! Are you stalking me?!” Bella questioned, her brows furrowed as she glared at Alex. Hastily composing himself, Alex replied, “No, I am just going to the villa.”“Villa? Are you alright?! Why will you go there?!” Bella exclaimed, before pointing her finger at him. “Don’t you dare think of going back there. It's my husband’s villa. So stay away!”“Husband?” Alex’s voice quivered. Clenching his fi
The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 40 | What did you do to the cars?!
A new day dawned upon Hidden Valley City, bringing with it a radiant burst of morning sunlight. Its warm and golden rays gently streamed through the room’s window, casting dancing patterns on the wall. Slowly, it found its way to Alex, nudging him awake from his peaceful sleep. His eyelids fluttered open, blinded by the golden rays. He recalled that he told Theo to bring a motorbike. Hurriedly, he got out of the room. The villa was silent, and he assumed that everyone was either sleeping or they had gone to work. Immediately he reached the staircase that led to the large living room, Evelyn spotted him and exclaimed. “You foolish imposter! Get your butt into the kitchen and get me a cup of tea!” Evelyn, who was in a bathing robe, wrapped a towel around her hair. She wore a flip-flop and looked exactly like those models who advertised soap on television, though no outsider would believe that she was very old, since she painted her grey hair black.“Oh oh oh,” Alex grumbled, swaying

At Evelyn’s villa, the maid escorted Fiona to the living room, and Fiona reached there, waiting for Evelyn patiently. As soon as Evelyn reached her side, Fiona approached her and muttered, “I need to talk to you.” “Alright, have your seat,” Evelyn responded, gesturing toward a nearby couch. Hastily, Fiona sat on the couch, and she spoke, “Ma. Evelyn, you need to listen to this recording. It is a conversation I recorded between Mrs. Bella and I.” As soon as she completed her statement, she played an audio she recorded which revealed how Bella intended to kill Daisy and have the entire empire to herself. Fortunately, Fiona didn’t follow Bella’s orders because she understood how it would feel if she was in the victim’s shoe. Also, the other time she injected a fluid into the IV fluid bag that was connected to Alex, it was the normal fluid she was supposed to inject. But, she pretended like it was a bad fluid, just in case Bella had a spy that was watching her. “Gosh, I knew she wa

“His entire empire?” Fiona mouthed, dumbfounded with Bella’s plan.“Yes. Now, get back to work,” Bella rasped before ending the call. She took a peek at the maid approaching her with a glass of juice then she gazed at her warily, recalling that the maid was always around her whenever she received a call. As soon as the maid placed the glass of juice on the table, Bella smiled, and she picked it up. She pretended to take a sip from the juice, and she got engaged with her phone.Meanwhile, the maid walked to a corner that had no CCTV camera, and she pulled out her phone to dial a phone number.The phone number was nicknamed, ‘Boss, Thomas.’As soon as Thomas answered the call from the other end, she narrated everything she heard quickly, while Thomas chuckled at Bella’s plan.After the maid completed the narration, Thomas instructed her to continue her work and he ended the call swiftly.Pushing her phone into her pocket, the maid turned around to leave, but what stood before her fri

“You have been diagnosed with liver cancer,” Diana explained, approaching his bed with steady steps.She pulled out a chair, pushed it towards Alex’s hospital bed and she sat on it.“Yes, Grandma Evelyn told me today,” Alex replied softly, his voice sounding weak and slow.“As your primary nurse, I will advise you to have more rest.”“Alright.”“Also, be careful. Something fishy is going on with Bella, but thank goodness, Fiona is the doctor taking care of you. She is more trustworthy than Doctor Ben-” Diana uttered, then she paused upon realizing that Alex’s eyes got shut.“I will leave you to rest then,” she uttered. She understood that he had fainted, and with his present condition, he needed more rest. So, she moved away from the chair, intending to leave the ward.Just as she was about to leave, Fiona walked in with a fake smile on her face, and her hands were dipped in her lab coat’s large pockets.“You must be working very hard to make him better,” Fiona muttered, gazing at Ale

Diana’s stomach clenched with worry as she absorbed Bella’s statement. Slowly, she released her hands from Bella’s collar with a web of worry lines forming on her face.“You let Daisy be in that condition because of your greed. Don’t you have any soul?” Diana asked, causing Bella to huff and straighten her blouse.“No, you are the one who allowed her to be in that condition. Stay away from Alex and I will stay away from your family. Also, you should visit your daughter at the hospital. She needs her mama,” Bella spoke sarcastically and she walked away with her head held high.Just then, Diana’s anger turned into concern, and she rushed out of the villa, intending to meet Daisy who had been admitted to the hospital.***“Ma. Evelyn, the CT scan reveals that Alex has liver cancer, and thank goodness we found out earlier; otherwise, it could have been too late,” Fiona uttered, causing Evelyn to gasp in shock.“But he will be treated as soon as possible, right?”“Yes,” Fiona replied with

Evelyn’s statement rang in Bella’s head and she stammered, “What?” with her body trembling at the statement, ‘Get rid of her.’“Guards, you should do your job or you will be fired. Meanwhile, Diana and Fiona should follow me,” Evelyn instructed and without a second thought, Bella moved away, being aware that the guards would definitely obey her.Immediately she moved away from them, she shot a glare at Diana, then, Evelyn, Diana, and Fiona walked away. Meanwhile, Bella was stunned by Evelyn’s actions.She didn’t expect Evelyn to visit the villa, or instruct the guards to get rid of her, especially when she is Alex’s wife, and his soon-to-be mother of his children.Just then, the same maid who repeatedly poured a liquid into the glass of water she offered to Alex passed by, with a tray and a glass of water.However, Bella spotted her and her eyes widened in shock.“Gosh, not now!” She muttered to herself, then she stopped the maid immediately. Dismissing the guards, she turned to the

“Though, you are very lucky. It will be easy to get rid of your allergy since it’s only been a few months,” Bella uttered, and she leaned forward with a smirk playing on her lips, “I know you love Daisy, Iris, and Melissa so much, so do this for them.”Afterward, the smirk on her face was replaced with a fake smile, and she leaned back, “You will do it, right?”With that, Diana’s eyes turned red as tears threatened to stream down. Earlier, she had decided to keep the baby and convince Jeffrey, but now, Bella is threatening her with her family.“Yes, I will do it,” Diana replied.“Alright, I will send a car to pick you up tomorrow. Then, we will get rid of your allergy,” Bella replied tartly, and afterward, she walked out of the restaurant.As soon as Diana watched her leave and her car sped off, Diana reached for her phone and she dialed Alex’s phone number quickly. But unfortunately, Alex could not answer it. He was in a wheelchair, sitting motionless as he stared into space in the

Knock!Knock!“Sir, I brought the painkillers,” the maid uttered in a soft tone. Afterward, Alex instructed the guards to allow her inside, and they obeyed. The maid walked in quickly, then she offered a glass of water and the painkillers to Alex.As soon as Alex took the painkillers, and the glass of water, a smirk played on the maid’s lips and she excused herself.***“Mr. Alex, you are alright,” Doctor Ben uttered swiftly, causing Alex to approach him.“Really?” Alex inquired.“Yes, we ran a CT scan and everything is fine,” Doctor Ben replied with a smile on his face, then he paused before muttering, “Sir, did you notice any negative symptoms?”“No, no. Since you said that I’m alright, then, I am,” Alex responded, causing Doctor Ben to bow his head.“I should take my leave then,” Doctor Ben spoke politely, and Alex waved his hand quickly as a sign of dismissal.Afterward, Doctor Ben left the room, while Bella walked in majestically.“So what did he say? You are fine, right?” Bella

Jeffrey’s voice rang throughout the room, causing Melissa to mutter softly, “Please, Daisy is here.”“Yes, mother-in-law,” Jeffrey replied calmly, while Alex walked out of the house, with Bella trailing behind him hastily.“Get into the car, we are leaving,” Alex uttered tartly.“What?!” Bella exclaimed, “We are here, now... You want us to leave?”“Yes,” Alex replied firmly.Meanwhile, in the dining room, Diana returned and she was a bit surprised to notice Alex and Bella’s absence.“They left,” Jeffrey uttered after he sensed her surprise.“Oh,” Diana replied, before her gaze fell on Melissa who had a worried expression on her face.“Are you alright?“ Melissa inquired with concern tinged in her voice and Diana responded with a nod, “I’m fine.”“Maybe you should consider seeing a doctor... You know, it might be a kind of disease or so,” Iris suggested quickly, causing Melissa to nudge her elbow and stop her from talking.“Sure, I will,” Diana replied, then she turned to her plate.Inw

“I’m worse? Oh, come on, what can be worse than a mother abandoning her biological daughter?” Bella scoffed, then, when she noticed that Alex tried to stand again, she rushed towards him and she placed his arm around her shoulder.She helped him to his room, and afterward, she returned to the dining room to confront Diana who watched how Bella assisted Alex to his room.“What are you doing here?” Bella inquired, folding her arms quickly.“I came to meet Alex,” Diana responded, then, she moved to the other side to walk away, but Bella blocked her path.“You can’t. He is fast asleep,” Bella hissed.“Then I will wake him... It’s something urgent I need to talk about,” Diana mattered, before walking past Bella hastily.“You have no shame at all...” Bella hissed, making Diana pause in her tracks.“First, you abandoned your daughter at an orphanage home, then you deprived her of the parental love she deserves-”Before she could continue her statement, Diana replied, “Yes, I did! But now, I
