The Useless Son-In-Law Is The Overlord 61
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. Lola has been very spiteful of Thomas and his family since they moved in here when they were thrown out of their family. Lola always uses the opportunity to tell them that they were disgraced and thrown out. She mocked them at every opportunity she got, but Andrew has decided that this w

Ruby goes to the bank and withdraws everything she has left. She needs to pay their rent because she is paranoid that they will get kicked out of the house.

She will beg them, she will promise them that she will bring the rest at the end of the month or something.

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?! Jasper rushes into her office breathlessly and as soon as he sees her, he picks her off the ground in excitement and hugs the hell out of her. “Oh God, I thought I've lost you.” Jasper covers her face with kisses. “Is it true that I was gone for a month?!” She asks him. “I thought it was three days.” The secretary calmly leaves the room.

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? Why don't you ask why my grandfather has cut her and her family off? Ruby is a thief, just like her parents. Her father stole and when he was caught, he was banished and everything was taken from him–” “I believe that it's Ruby we are talking about here.” Frederick frowns. “Yes. She is a thief, just like a father.” Adriana nods. “Do you know that she and her useless husband bought a Ferrari on credit just to impress the family? As soon as she got the funds for the project, she paid off the car and I heard that she has been stashing some money somewhere.” Frederick's frown grows even more. “Miss Adriana, are you very sure of what you are saying?” He asks her. “Yes, sir.

Mister William Sanchez looks at her with a very angry face. “Is this true, Adriana? Have you had the guts to steal from me?” “No, grandfather! Are you going to believe this bullshit of a man? I didn't steal from you!” Adriana defends herself very fiercely. Mister William Sanchez still has his doubts.
