Lucas Reid always dreamed of living a happy life, especially as the live-in son-in-law of the Wright family. He thought marrying Ava Wright, a member of the influential Wright clan, would be his ticket to happiness. But things took a turn for the worse after Lord Wright, the man who set up the marriage, passed away. His in-laws only made his situation more difficult. With nothing to his name and only his wife to lean on, Ethan felt like he had hit rock bottom. Just when he was about to throw in the towel, he stumbled upon a shocking revelation: he wasn't just the son of a billionaire; he was the sole heir to a massive fortune. Now, he's determined to make those who wronged him pay. But it’s not straightforward when he learns that his family isn’t who he thought they were—they’ve been pulling the strings all along. Will he find justice, or will his own demons take over? The only way to find out is to dive into the story!

Chapter 1
Lucas's pov‘‘Ding!’’ The oven chimed into the silence, startling me shortly as I rushed to turn it off. I brought out the steaming hot strawberry cake and left it in a tray to cool up.“Lucas!!’’ It finally came, Lady Wright's yell that I'd been expecting. I stepped out to catch her gaze from the dining area where they were all seated, awaiting desserts. From Lady Wright, my mother-in-law, to Ava, my wife and the only reason I'm in the Wright mansion, on to Daisy, their daughter-in-law whose father owned a famous corporation. She lived here with her husband, Romeo who runs the family business. And lastly is Ava's cousin, Natasha. ‘‘How much longer will desserts take, isn't there a single thing you can do right?’’ Lady Wright spiked.‘‘I'm sorry, I'll serve it now.’’“Please tell me you'll wash those filthy hands before touching anything,” Daisy called out, referring to the cleaning towel in my hands. ‘‘Oh c'mon, he should know better than that.’’ Natasha scoffed. “You can't be s
The Tycoon's Son-in-Law Chapter 9
Lucas's povI scoffed underneath my breath at Lady Wright's charge. Why are they making a big deal out of it anyway, if they need a slave they should hire one! “I had to see someone. I informed Ava before leaving. And I apologize for leaving the way I did.’’ My voice came out unusually hard, I was doing a lot trying to contain their ruckus.‘‘Who was it?’’ Lady Wright demanded. “Who cares about who he went to meet? I don't think there's any justification for what he did.’’ Daisy argued, and I found myself nodding. Lady Wright released a scoff, turning to Daisy. “You won't believe this! The day at the hospital, wasn't that yesterday?’’ She asked no one in particular, but Natasha was fast to confirm it. Lady Wright continued. “I was just in a chat with Mr Sikes about an hour ago, and guess what happened?’’Things were getting complicated at this point. The three women looked utterly puzzled, trying to get Lady Wright's point. Lady Wright searched through her phone, and it dawned o

Lucas's pov Caleb adjusted uncomfortably on his seat, clearing his throat in a composed manner. “May I get your reasons, sir?’’ He requested rather carefully. I scoffed. “That idiot doesn't deserve his monthly paycheck, he's a jerk. I'm pretty sure there are others just like him, but I'll make him my scapegoat since he fell into my trap first.’’ “It's alright. He'll receive the dismiss letter by tomorrow.’’ Caleb stated, and I couldn't help the leap in my heart. Commanding authority was really great, you get whatever you want just at the mention of it. Pride sat on my shoulders like brazen armor as I read through the rest of the names. “I'll keep this,’’ I said. “Yes, you should! There's one more thing before we call it a day, I have just thirty minutes to get to a meeting.’’ Caleb informed me, staring into his wristwatch. “It's the black card.’’ He said, handing me something more like a purse. ‘‘What card?’’ I asked puzzledly. ‘‘Check it out. It's to take care of your needs

Lucas's pov I dried my hands in a napkin after finally finishing up with the heap of dirty dishes from the party last night. I proceeded to serve the kimchi rice and sauce which was now warm enough to eat. The Wright family was already completely settled on the dining table. While Natasha was busy on her phone, Lady Wright and Ava were engrossed in a little chat with Romeo. Daisy just watched with less interest. I served their portions and filled their glasses with juice when my phone chimed against my pocket. I unlocked the message once I returned to the kitchen, and my heart skipped a beat when I saw Caleb's name in the content. I took off my cooking apron and hurried upstairs to call him. ‘‘Hello, Mr Lucas.’’ Caleb's voice came through. The first thing that came off my lips were complaints. “Why didn't you call me yesterday?’’ “Uh..I didn't see any need to. Is there a problem?” Caleb stuttered. ‘‘So why did you send a message now?’’ I asked, remembering the message content t

Lucas's pov The gigantic mansion was flooded with lights. Twinkling blue, green, and red lights alongside the normal yellow bulb. From the gate, the thumping beats from the party were heavier, and the air literally shook. I paid the cab man as I alighted, bracing myself for whatever was to come as I headed in. Various epicurean cars which displayed their high worth merely by the sight of them lined down the compound. I wondered what time the party was scheduled to commence for this number of people to have arrived. I proceeded into the house, and I appreciated the loneliness that embraced me. The party was happening at the third floor which holds a large hall for such purposes. I retired to my room to freshen up and change into something more presentable for the party. I drew in a deep breath and almost pulled the door, but someone else did it before me. My heart sank subconsciously. Ava showed up by the door, sizing me up with her eyes before speaking. Probably after she was sat

Lucas's povLady Wright's piercing voice echoed through the air as she halted before us, her gaze still fixed on me.“What did he do this time?’’‘‘Good day, Ma'am. I'm Barnabas from Folicks firm, a loan company.’’ Barnabas introduced himself. ‘‘Loan sharks?’’ Lady Wright cut in sharply, and Barnabas responded with a subtle ‘hmph’.‘‘What do you have to say, Mr debtor?’’ Lady Wright directed at me. She had her eyes on me the whole time, waiting for a course to humiliate me. I summoned the courage to meet her gaze. “I asked him to come for it tomorrow.” A menacing smirk crawled onto her lips. ‘‘Where did you plan on getting it, my purse?’’ Gasps erupted from the surrounding crowd at her outburst, some had even begun capturing the scene on their phones. “I don't think I've ever stolen from you.’’ I replied firmly. Mrs Royce stepped forward, her eyes ravishing my body with a lustful smile. ‘‘How about me then, should I reveal our little secrets?’’I swallowed hard. Since the firs

Lucas's povI stared, eyes wide with wonder as Caleb opened the briefcase, emotions brimming in his own eyes. He had probably tried opening the briefcase all these years so it seemed like a dream too. He gently extracted files from the case, and crisp bundles of dollar notes revealed beneath, widening my gaze further as shock coursed through my veins. Caleb closed the briefcase sharply, scanning the surroundings briefly before facing me. “These are the main documents to be signed, but you still need to sign that one to affirm your identity.’’ He nodded his chin towards the first file in front of me.I swallowed hard as I signed, my throat constricting as sweat drenched my shirt. The air suddenly became too hot as Caleb explained the various purposes of each document while I signed. My mind actually still hovered, fixated on the content left in the briefcase, was all that money also supposed to be mine?“Finally, there's this device.’’ Caleb said, picking out a gadget with a thumbp

Lucas's pov Ever since I got adopted by my foster parents, Mr and Mrs Williams, two years after I lost my biological mom, my surname has been changed from Reid to Williams.It's been what? Twenty-seven years already! I doubt that people who knew me by my biological father's surname would still recognise me if we crossed paths, he didn't even spend up to a year of my life with me.Different questions roamed my mind with no answers. Mr Caleb had driven us in his car to a bigger hospital, actually one of the biggest in Virginia. He offered to pay the surgery bills without a refund and it made me wanna go crazy!I was confused, I was anxious. Just who was he?‘‘Ah, there you are!’’ His sharp masculine voice made me look up. I stood hastily as he approached.‘‘Everything will be fine now; she's been taken into the ward.’’ He reassured me with a warm smile.‘‘Who are you?’’ I spewed the only words that hovered my mind. ‘‘How about we save the explanation for today and talk tomorrow instea

Lucas's povI burst into the ward, and the scene before me weakened my knees. Some nurses were hastily disconnecting my mother's life-support systems, while Dr. Collins turned to face me with a glaring scowl. “Thank goodness you're here. I was going to dump her outside if you didn't show up soon.’’ He conceded in a mean voice. “Wh..what's going on?’’ My voice trembled. ‘‘Isn't it obvious?’’ He sneered. “We can't accommodate your mother anymore, take her away, elsewhere. It's none of my business.’’ He stormed out of the room, leaving me shaken. The nurses watched me with disdain, but I ignored them and rushed to my mother's bedside. Her weary eyes brimmed with tears, she could barely manage a gesture. “Mom, are you okay?’’ I fought hard to hold back my tears, my heart tearing apart. “You can just take me home.’’ She whispered weakly, but that was impossible. She's totally incompetent and needs hospitalization. ‘‘Don't worry, I'll fix it,’’ I reassured her. “Sir, please take h
