The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 67 | I need some money
“What?” Alex exclaimed, surprised by her statement. He composed himself quickly, assuming that what he heard was false.“Do you mean you want to sell Diana?” He inquired, causing Melissa to nod.“What are you still doing here?” Diana voiced out, approaching Alex.“Oh, I was just about to leave, until your roommate here talked about you,” Alex replied, causing Diana to fold her arms.“She is my mother,” Diana responded. With that, Alex’s jaw dropped. Why would a mother sell her own daughter?“She is your stepmom, right?” Alex questioned.“Just leave, the door is there,” Diana replied, not intending to talk to him as she walked towards her room.“Hey, what's wrong with you?! Do you know who he is? He is a rich man!” Melissa yelled, and Diana turned back.“Mum, don't waste your time. He is an imposter. He is only pretending to be a rich man’s son,” Diana replied, causing Melissa to narrow her eyes at Alex, before scoffing.“So you drank my tea and you are not rich?!” She yelled, her vei

Diana sensed that he was annoyed with her request for money, but she needed it for Iris’s surgery. She could not afford to lose her, for mere integrity's sake, even though she knew Alex would assume she loved him for his money.So, she continued her statement, “Actually, I'm only requesting an advance payment then you can lend me a little money.”“Borrow from the bank then,” Alex replied tartly, before he turned around to return to Rex’s room.Just then, Diana’s phone vibrated. She checked it quickly and realized that Melissa sent a message.[Hurry!]Hastily, Diana blocked Alex’s path.“I need the money urgently, and borrowing more from the bank will only consume time. Also, I work as a nurse, so I can pay you back in two more folds,” Diana replied quickly, intending to convince Alex.Sighing, Alex tucked his hands into his pocket and he turned around before responding, “When will you pay in two folds?”“Huh? Maybe in two years.”“Alright, Diana. I'm a businessman, and my money is not
The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 69 | A contract
“Sister-in-law?” Iris gasped, hastily grabbing Alex by his arm.“You two are getting married, right?” Iris asked quickly, and Alex nodded in response.As soon as she sensed that he meant yes, she squealed. “Thank goodness! Now, I will be referred to as Lady Iris, then I will have a big cosmetic shop to myself.”“Shut it,” Diana replied, giving Iris a murderous look.Swiftly, Iris pouted and yelled, “I am the injured one here, so you should treat me like one.”“Ow,” she muttered, feeling a throbbing ache as she yelled.“Just rest already and stop adding to your problems,” Diana scolded.With that, Alex shifted his gaze to Iris before smiling warmly, “Yes, Diana is right. You should rest, sister-in-law.”“Alright, brother-in-law. I will make sure I take a good rest,” Iris replied sweetly, with a smile spread across her face, causing Diana’s jaw to drop.Iris had never spoken to any of her male friends in a polite way, but this time, she was being too polite... maybe because Alex wore ex
The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 70 | I’m your wife
“What?! I mean why would he say that?” Diana questioned, causing Alex to interfere quickly.“Why can't I say that?” Alex inquired, and Barbara left their presence to excuse herself.“We are getting married soon, so you can stay in my room. Actually, I am here to pick you up.”“What do you mean by getting married soon?” Diana asked, her heart pounding loudly.Swiftly, Alex grabbed her arm, causing Diana to feel tingling sensations in the place he touched.“We are getting married right now,” Alex replied, and Diana released her arm from his grasp.“Getting married today was not in the contract,” she admitted.“Well, it is. The condition involved in the contract was that I would decide when, where, and how we would get married.”“I know... But I should get the opportunity to decide too. Also, you are married.”“That's not true. I'm divorced.”“What? You got divorced? Don't you think everything is happening too quickly? And what would you gain by getting married to a poor nurse like me?”
The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 71 | I’m Alexander Rex
Sharply, Alex turned around, and without a second thought, he responded to her statement.“You are my contracted wife or pretend wife, not a normal wife,” Alex corrected her statement, causing Diana to blink repeatedly.“I know, I was just a little curious,” Diana admitted.Alex scoffed, “Curiosity killed the cat, so stop being curious.”He walked toward the closet, then pulled out a blue pajama while Diana bit her lips nervously.“I got injured because of your carelessness. You know, telling me about yourself would be a little joy for me. Or how would you feel if you got married to a stranger?” Diana asked cautiously, intending to persuade Alex to tell her the truth.Instead, Alex flared up and retorted, “You are the careless one. Why did you deliberately fiddle with my fingers? Were you trying to s*duce me?”“S*duce?! I can't believe you have the guts to say that to me! Why would I deliberately do that?”“Obviously, you did it for my money,” Alex replied firmly, causing Diana to rol
The Son-in-law’s Supremacy 72 | Resignation letter
“I came here to give Mr. Rex a cup of water,” Diana uttered quickly, causing Alex to glance down on the floor.He looked at the broken cup, and the spilled water, before nodding, “Okay.”Rex, on the other hand, listened to their statements, but he didn't believe Diana’s. Hastily, he moved his wheelchair out of the room to interfere in their conversation.As soon as he got there, he stared at Diana coldly, before questioning her, “Were you eavesdropping?” “No, she wasn't,” Alex replied quickly, supporting Diana since he saw the evidence shattered on the floor. He walked towards Rex’s wheelchair to push him back into the room.Just then, Diana felt totally disgusted by Rex and Alex’s statement. She voiced out, her voice quivering at the end of her statement. “Yes, I was eavesdropping. I heard everything too.”With that statement, Alex paused in his tracks, feeling a little pained that Diana heard what they said. He turned around, observing how the sour expression on Diana’s face turn

“I’m sorry to say this, but Mr. Rex’s health worsened. This blood test states that the drug level in his bloodstream is now at a high level and it have affected his heart seriously,” Doctor Ben explained, handing over a report to Alex as it caused Alex’s heart to race.This was not what Alex wanted. Now, Rex’s health is at the grass level because Diana left, and he felt guilty about that. Though, he believed that it was Diana’s fault for resigning.With that, Alex gazed at the report, “He can still be treated, right?”“No, not anymore,” Doctor Ben stated, bowing his head slightly.Alex, on the other hand, sighed then he waved his hand as a signal of dismissal. Doctor Ben left the room while Alex recalled how Diana gave him a huge amount of money and resigned from her job. “Why is Dad’s health deteriorating when Diana is not working as his personal nurse?” Alex muttered to himself, as he sat comfortably on the plush sofa.Just then, he instructed Theo, “Call Diana, I need to speak wi

Diana stepped out of the cab after it halted before Rex’s villa. She walked softly into the villa, before striding into the dining room.Just then, she spotted different delicacies on the long table with Evelyn, Stella, Ronald, and Rex present. Swiftly, she sat on a chair, sensing that Alex was not present.“I’m sorry I'm late,” Diana uttered, taking a glance at Rex who had a wide grin on his face.“I should be the one apologizing for what I did,” Rex responded, and Diana smiled, “It’s fine.”Just then, Ronald sneered, “Aren’t you that sc*mbag’s girlfriend?!”“Yes...” Diana replied. Hastily, a masculine voice responded, “She is my wife now.”“Huh?” Stella gasped.Alex walked into the dining room, and he settled on the chair. “Diana is my wife now. Neil is her ex-boyfriend.”Though, Diana didn't say anything so she won't ruin the family dinner.“What do you mean by that? Are you two legally married?” Stella questioned, causing Alex to glance at her.“Yes, we are,” Alex muttered.With t

119 | Right decision
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
115 | Ma. Evelyn’s return
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
