The Useless Son-In-Law Is The Overlord 59
Doreen cries into her hands, her painful sobs pierces the heart of everyone that hears it. Thomas is heartbroken, he gathers her in his arms and comforts her, but that does very little. Her father gave her the pearl necklace before he died when she was just a young woman. It was passed down to his mother and he gave it to her mum, his wife, before she died. When he knew his time was up, he gave it to her and it was her most prized possession. It wasn't because it was expensive, it was barely worth a few hundred dollars, but she loved it because it was her father that owned it. It pained her because she couldn't go back to get it, she knew that the creditor won't give it to her. Ruby looks down as a tear slips from her eyes as she goes on and comforts her mother. “I am expecting some money next week. I will pay as much as he wants to get it back.” “But what's the use?” Doreen wails. “He is going to come back for his money and more others like him! We are into so much debt! We ow

I never thought I was going to get my necklace again.” She says with a heavy voice. “I just asked him really nicely, mum. Don't worry, no one will ever take that from you.” He smiles at her.

When Andrew returns to the house, he meets Uma playing alone in the living room. She has been fed and changed out of her dress, but it's very unlike anyone to leave her alone by herself. She runs into his arms as soon as she sees her father. “Daddy! Daddy! I've missed you!” He picks her up and throws her a little in the air, she giggles because she likes it. “Where is your grandma?” He asks her. “Why have you been left alone?” Uma goes back to her toys with a shrug. “Grandma has been really moody since we got back home. The neighbor insulted her and called us poor. I think Grandma is crying in her room about it.” This makes Andrew frown because he knows the neighbor that they are talking about.

Jasper laughs because Andrew must be crazy if he thinks that he would crawl and beg his little daughter for anything. “You just be high on something! Do you know how much my shoes are worth? This was a handmade suit and it's worth more than you will ever be.” Jasper says. “Besides, why would I crawl to beg your daughter?” Andrew smiles at Jasper's foolishness and says, “You have to remember that I'm not the one whose girlfriend is missing…” Andrew shuts the door, but Jasper puts his leg and stops him from shutting the door. He can't believe that Andrew is really asking him to kneel and beg his daughter. “What kind of man are you? Do you realize that if you ask me for money, your family will never lack anything again?” Andrew doesn't reply, instead he widens the door and calls over his shoulder. “Uma? Why don't you go up to your room?” “Okay, daddy!” She picks up her doll and runs up the stairs in a few minutes. Andrew gives Jasper a one sided smile. “Now you will have to crawl

The secretary sees that she is in trouble, she swallows a gulp, but answers. “I don't know what happened exactly, ma'am, I wasn't there, but it's rumored that the anonymous partner removed you and put your cousin.” She says. “That's a lie! Ruby doesn't know how to run anything, that was my contract, I fought to have it!” She shouts. “How dare they? I was only gone for three days!” “Uh, ma. Today is exactly a month since your vacation.” The secretary corrects her. Adriana is wide eyed with astonishment. A whole month?!

It works for her because Frederick Cargo immediately stops and looks at her with a hard frown. “What did you say?” He asks her. “Weren't you the one who gave her the job?
