The Stanton siblings, alongside their mother Beth, gazed at their father's lifeless body on a stretcher in the morgue.Agata still wept, using a napkin to dry her tears, while Carson and Campbell silently endured the overwhelming sense of helplessness.Beth, bored out of her mind, struggled not to yawn in front of her children. They had been at the place for a couple of hours, and Beth couldn't wait to leave and return to her mansion.She discreetly gestured to check the time on her watch, hiding the immense boredom she felt during this painful moment for them."And... what if we go back to the mansion?" Beth timidly suggested.Agata looked at her in disbelief, while Carson and Campbell couldn't believe she would say that."How can you think of that at a time like this?" Agata exclaimed."My dad just died," added Campbell."We should be with him," Carson said, puzzled.Beth rubbed her forehead as if suffering from a migraine. She was tired of pretending empathy and playing the grievin

It was clear to him that Beth Aldress had something to do with Joseph's death.Scott had to inform the police immediately. The whole world needed to know that she wanted her ex-husband dead.The doorbell of his apartment began ringing unexpectedly.For Scott, it was very strange since he had no relatives living nearby, nor did he have any friends who could come to his house.So it was a mystery who could be the person calling at his door."Maybe it's the police," he said to hi

Beth had hired some men that same day to clear out all of Joseph's paintings and artwork.From the smallest images to his gigantic portrait hanging in the main hall, painted by a very famous artist."I want everything out of the mansion," Beth ordered as the men carried out their tasks.Just then, the Stanton brothers arrived and found these individuals loading their deceased father's belongings onto a truck."Mom?" Agatha exclaimed, a bit confused."Dear children... you're back," Beth approached them with a satisfied smile, reflecting how much she was enjoying the moment."What's happening here, Mom?" Carson asked."What are these men doing with Dad's things?" Campbell began to struggle with one of them over one of Joseph's paintings."Children... Children... Children..." Beth exclaimed, taking Campbell's shoulder and letting the man take Joseph's painting.Beth stood in front of them, arms crossed over her chest."I just want to give this house a little touch of modernity," Beth shr

"Should have started there," exclaimed the terminal manager."What!?" said the obese woman in astonishment."You, shut up!" ordered the manager, pushing the obese woman with his shoulder.The obese woman fell silent, but the expression of bewilderment didn't leave her face."The gentleman is a special customer and deserves special treatment," the manager took Curtis by the shoulders, smiling cheerfully. "What is your name, distinguished friend?""Curtis?" said Curtis, also very puzzled."I want you to give our friend Curtis the best seat you have on your bus," ordered the manager."I don't understand anything that's happening," said the obese woman, scratching her head."I don't pay you to understand; I pay you to drive and obey," shouted the manager."Yes, sir," the obese woman lowered her gaze, furrowed her brow, and shrugged her shoulders.Curtis put the card away again and couldn't help but smile at the face of the obese woman. Deep down, he enjoyed seeing her get what she deserve
The revenge of the mafia son-in-law. Chapter 54. Widow in disguise
The funeral of Joseph Stanton had changed venues. It was now taking place at the Ballmer mansion, adorned with dignified decorations.Beth found out and promptly appeared at the Ballmer mansion, putting on her best performance as a grieving widow. She dressed entirely in black, holding a Bible in hand, mourning beside Joseph's casket while Alfred wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.She knew perfectly well that the elite would attend Joseph's funeral if it was held at the Ballmer mansion, and she cared about the opinions of those magnates for potential future business."If you look up the word 'hypocrisy' in the dictionary, you'll find a picture of your mom," Charles Ballmer said to Carson as they observed Beth from a distance.Carson sighed, lips moving with arms crossed over his chest. "You can't blame her for doing what's necessary to secure that endless fortune," Carson replied.Charles smirked ironically, placing his hand on Carson's shoulder. "Your dad had very bad luck cro

One of those guards shoved Curtis forcefully, making him step back several paces. He felt deeply offended. He clenched his fist tightly but couldn't retaliate.Curtis decided to walk away to find another way into the cemetery. As the hours passed, Joseph's burial drew closer.Joseph's coffin traveled in a special carriage personally paid for by Charles Ballmer, followed by a whole caravan of black cars.Beth rode alone with Baxter, complaining throughout the journey about how annoying it was to be in that place. Alfred sat in the back and simply listened to the conversation between Beth and Baxter."I want that old man buried once and for all," Beth calmly applied makeup in the rearview mirror as Baxter drove."We're almost there," Baxter replied without looking at her."I can already taste that immense fortune," Beth celebrated, leaning back in her seat, daydreaming about Joseph's inheritance.Baxter continued driving, not speaking much. He seemed distracted and pensive."That stupid

The burial of Joseph took place, and then everyone tried to get back to their lives to continue after that loss.Curtis decided to leave the country, taking advantage of the golden card that Joseph had left him.He arrived at the airport intending to take a flight to any nation in the world where he could be away from the Stanton family, the Ballmers, and Amber."Good morning," said Curtis as he approached the ticket counter."Good morning," the employee said, looking at Curtis with doubt."I would like to buy a ticket."The employee raised her eyebrow, and her lips moved to one side of her face to express distrust."Are you sure you can pay for it?"The girl discreetly rolled her chair back a bit and prepared to press the alarm button to call security."Of course... I have enough money to pay for all the seats on the plane," Curtis shouted, losing control a bit."Don't shout, sir. Please remain calm."The girl pressed the button under the podium, and immediately the silent alarm went

Cartago is the most elegant and distinguished restaurant in the entire city where Curtis lived. It was Joseph's favorite place to dine, and one could only attend there by helicopter."Are you nervous?" Lucius shouted as the helicopter descended atop that beautiful building.Curtis clung to the helicopter's safety bar, fear evident on his face. He was terrified."I just want to get down," Curtis said.The helicopter's door opened, and restaurant staff courteously helped Curtis descend.Lucius Garner began to walk towards the interior of the restaurant without saying a word, and Curtis had to hurry to catch up with him.Entering that place was like visiting a palace from another world. It was sublime, something Curtis had never seen before in his life. It was easy to understand why it was Joseph Stanton's favorite place.Curtis was shocked when he saw a giant portrait of Joseph right in the center of the restaurant."Amazing, isn't it?" Lucius asked, also admiring the artwork.After tha

Campbell watched with concern the news of his mother's arrest on his cell phone as he prepared for the flight where he would escape with Dany.Dany noticed Campbell's demeanor and immediately took his hand to comfort him."We can't look back," Dany said, "I know just the thing to cheer you up."Dany went to the airplane minibar and grabbed a bottle of champagne, perfectly chilled. Without hesitation, she uncorked it in front of Campbell, letting the bubbly foam cascade everywhere, soaking the red carpet beneath their feet.It was all laughter, hugs, and kisses until a voice amplified by a megaphone wiped the smiles off their faces instantly."Campbell Stanton, step out of the plane with your hands on your head," the police chief's voice echoed through the megaphone.Campbell and Dany peered out the window to see an entire army of international special police agents on the runway, aiming their firearms directly at the plane.Curtis returned to the Stanton mansion safe and sound, as he

Charles Ballmer laughed maniacally. He couldn't believe that he had finally ended the life of the wretched Curtis Stanton. He had always known he would kill him since the day Curtis had used him as a stool alongside Araña years ago.His escorts also laughed, pleased to see that their boss had finally gotten what he wanted. However, things changed in an instant. A shot came out of nowhere, hitting one of the escorts directly in the forehead, killing him immediately. Another shot hit the leg of another escort, and that's when everyone finally reacted, starting to shoot in all directions without knowing where the shots were coming from.Charles Ballmer crouched down and quickly sought shelter from the gunfire while continuing to give orders."Shoot! Shoot at anything that moves!" Charles shouted, hiding behind one of the containers.Curtis was also crawling on the floor, completely unharmed by the shots Charles Ballmer had just fired at him.Immediately, the dock was filled with internat

The limousine slowly came to a stop in front of the Stanton mansion, and Agatha looked through the window while accompanied by Angeline."Welcome to your true home," said Agatha as the gigantic gate opened to allow the limousine to pass.Both were personally greeted by Curtis.Agatha quickly got out of the limousine and ran to hug Curtis."What the hell are you doing here? I told you to stay on the island and take care of Angeline," Curtis reprimanded."He came back, Curtis. He managed to find me," Agatha confessed, terrified, with a look of fear in her eyes."That's impossible!" Curtis exclaimed."I know, I know. But he did it. He reached the hotel and chased me up the stairs. He said Angeline was his daughter and that he had the right to know her," Agatha said, unable to stop crying."You are safe now," Curtis comforted her with a kiss on the forehead."Daddy!" Angeline exclaimed, hugging her father's leg while Alfred carried Agatha's suitcases."Hello, my love," Curtis greeted with

“Curtis?” said Beth, peeking onto the balcony, “I finally found you. I've been searching all over the mansion for you.”“I was reminiscing about the view from this magnificent balcony,” Curtis replied.“Remembering old times, I imagine.”“Exactly in this spot, I stood the day Baxter went crazy and killed Lucius for no reason,” commented Curtis, fully aware that Beth was the culprit. However, he never pointed the finger at her directly.Beth immediately understood the accusatory remark and simply smiled to keep up the pretense.“It’s a real shame that such a beautiful place brings such bitter memories to your mind,” Beth responded.“No, not at all. It’s the perfect occasion to remember the inexplicable things that only happen in the Stanton mansion. Ander died and no one knows a thing about what happened. It’s exactly the same with Lucius and Baxter,” Curtis remarked sarcastically. “These elegant walls hold mysteries that the world has no clue about.”Beth only responded with a feigned

Agatha couldn't believe it. That man had found her and surely wanted to harm her and her young daughter. She could expect anything from Prince Rick at that moment. It was impossible to trust someone who had abandoned her and stolen all her money."Let's go, Angeline. We need to go back," Agatha said, terrified, taking her young daughter by the arm to return to the elevator."Agatha!" Prince Rick shouted, rising from his seat when he saw that Agatha wanted to flee from him.However, the elevator had already closed again and was on the upper floors. No matter how many times Agatha pressed the buttons, the door simply wouldn't open.Agatha watched with concern as Rick quickly crossed the entire lobby to reach where she was."Let's go through the stairs," Agatha said, picking up her young daughter and carrying her to move much faster.She was forced to walk a bit further to her right to enter the door leading to the hotel's stairs. She tried to move as quickly as possible without drawing

The next day, all the media outlets were abuzz with a story that went global in a matter of minutes.Ander Stanton, the youngest member of the powerful Stanton family, had been found completely charred inside the remains of a limousine that had been intentionally set on fire. He was found alongside a girl, also charred, who, for some strange reason, had a chain tied around her neck.This news plunged the Stanton family into mourning and called into question the performance of the city's police authorities. The citizens were alarmed. If something like this could happen to someone as important as Ander Stanton, what could an ordinary citizen expect?"That's common in this city. People are murdered like that every day. It's just that now it's someone rich, and that makes the difference," said an old woman being interviewed on television while Charles Ballmer and Beth Aldress watched.They were both completely naked and sitting in a hot tub. Charles was enjoying a cigar while Beth just re

Ander lost all the harshness in his voice and his bravery vanished as if by magic. Now he was just a scared and cowardly child, trembling like jelly in front of what seemed like a ghost from the past."Annie..." Ander sobbed, a mix of lament and high-pitched cry.He began to sweat profusely, and tears streamed down his face like waterfalls as he remained in disbelief. He couldn't believe what his eyes were seeing.Annie was there, staring at him face to face. However, she seemed unresponsive. Somehow, Charles Ballmer had managed to destroy her feelings and emotions. Everything that Annie once was had been erased from her mind forever. Now she was just a kind of pet that only served to wag her tail when her master, Charles Ballmer, came home tired from work."What did that bastard do to you?" Ander said, crying like a child.He took the chain that bound Annie's neck and noticed it was made of very resistant material. Perhaps that was why she had never managed to escape. Or maybe Charle

Ander woke up again in the middle of the night due to a horrible recurring nightmare that he had over and over again. Annie's face and voice tormented him during his dreams, preventing him from resting. Since it happened, Ander hadn't been able to sleep peacefully on any of the following nights."You're a damn coward," he told himself to gather the courage to go on with his life.His idea was to convince himself that he had chosen well by showing loyalty to Charles Ballmer. After all, Annie had brought that horrible end upon herself. However, the nightmares and the bitter taste in his mouth didn't go away with anything. Maybe it was something he had to learn to live with.The next day, everything returned to normal at the Stanton mansion. Beth walked proudly around the mansion, not missing any opportunity to rub her triumph in Curtis' face.However, Curtis was locked in his room with no desire to come out. He just stared out the window while everyone else enjoyed the pool. Maybe they

"Congratulations," said Campbell innocently."I think you should be grateful he didn’t get your wife pregnant, idiot," Beth snapped angrily, while Campbell felt ashamed."My personal life with my wife is none of the business of anyone present," Curtis commented immediately, although, to be honest, he was still in shock."You’re right. We don’t care about the child of a bastard and a traitor," Beth said venomously, not caring that she was talking about her own grandchild."He will own everything you see," Curtis defended himself with a sharp comment."That reminds me," Beth stood up and began walking around the office, "the new company directors have been talking, and...""And what?" Curtis questioned."And we’re thinking of kicking you out of the business," Carson immediately attacked.Curtis smiled, letting out a bit of air in a half-laugh."That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard," Curtis said, smiling."We want to remove you from your duties as president of Stanton Enterpr
