Triumph Of The Belittled Son-in-law CHAPTER 147
Estevan glided towards his brother, Frank Winston, his gestures were fluid and his eyes unwavering. “Brother, we have to be careful of every action we take right now. I don’t know what exactly you are thinking of right now but I can tell that it’s not good. I know you too well, Frank.”“You know it’s the right thing to do,” Frank responded, his body language aggressive and tight.“What is possibly right about that? You are acting based on impulse and we can’t afford that right now. I know that you are thinking of hurting Jeffrey but how can we hurt the only person who is our currency toward getting the antidote,” Estevan spoke, trying to dissuade him of the idea that was brimming in his head.“It’s because they have declared war on us,” Frank seethed, his eyes narrowed into a deadly glint of vengeance. “When there is war, we don’t hide behind our shelves and hope that they don’t attack us further - we retaliate with an attack of ours. We are not cowards, damnit!”Frank’s throat was ti

Jeffrey’s lips were a trembling whisper and his eyes were downcast as he murmured words under his breath as if he were saying a silent prayer.He was standing on his feet but he lacked so much balance that it looked like he was going to fall anytime soon.“Hmm, so you are the one who is wanted by Rico right?” Frank Leonard queried, his eyes narrowed with a deadly inquiry.“No! Please, I beg you. I didn’t do anything wrong. I don’t know why they want me. I don’t know anything,” Rico pleaded, his voice tumbling over one another as he trembled with fear.Frank spoke over him immediately. “You don’t know why they want you? That means that you know that they want you. How were you able to know that?”Rico’s head was a storm of confusion as he didn’t know which question to answer first. All he knew was that he couldn’t find it easy to breathe. He forgot his inhaler when the guards were pulling him with so much force.“Oh, you can’t say anything. Why don’t you tell me where they are?” Frank’

Jeffrey could barely complete his statement when he received a big hit across his face that sent him lying on the ground in a heap.Frank’s nostrils flared in a dangerous flare of fury and a pant of outrage as he erupted in wrath. “Who told you that you are not at fault? If you were not born into this world, then perhaps there wouldn’t be a reason for such a ridiculous demand.”Jeffrey’s hands clutched his face in a spasm of pain as his eyes were pleading with fear. He seemed to have delved into a world of oblivion as he reeled in the effect of the slap.“Kneel!” Frank commanded.Jeffrey took to his knees immediately, his body itching as he regretted that he was ever in a position to be used as a bargaining chip. He wished he would just put a call through to Rico and tell him that he wasn’t worth saving. He wasn’t worth all of the commotion that was going on. It was too much for him.Frank’s eyes twinkled with a deadly gleam of mischief and his grin spread in a deadly curl of devilry

Janet was surprised to hear that Sarah’s tone changed. She could have sworn that Sarah wasn’t going to change her mind the way that she was speaking in the phone call the other time. Janet had her words hanging in her throat until she then spilled it out. “What’s the condition sister? I am happy to know that you are taking a new turn. You have no idea how pleased I am right now.”“Oh, don’t be so happy yet. I am only proposing that we could end this phone call without an agreement. I am still very much upset with how things are,” Sarah spoke, her voice tinged with a warning signal.“Oh, sorry big sis. I’m sorry about that. I am all ears,” Janet spoke, realizing that she had gone too far by stating how she felt.“Firstly, I would want all of you to convince Lady Winston the moment she wakes from the coma that I was the one who provided the antidote. You are all going to tell her that I do not deserve the treatment that I was given and that I must be welcomed back into her good books.”

Alright then,” Sarah spoke, her voice was a drowsy tone that seemed to draw her into her deep thoughts.Their faces lit up with a deadly radiance of delight as they felt that Sarah was finally going to come to her senses.“So you are going to get us the antidote right?” Janet asked for confirmation.“What?! No, not yet. There is still one last condition,” Sarah spoke.Janet’s face twisted with a portrait of desperation as she gritted her teeth. What exactly did Sarah want again? Had they not talked about everything? What the hell were these demands? Why make these kinds of demands when time wasn’t even on their side?She eventually took a deep breath in patience to hear the final condition that Sarah was going to say. “Alright, what condition is that? I am ready to satisfy you in whatever way that would make you feel comfortable.”“I would need to have my position back as secretary of Winston Corporation.”What?! Janet’s face went white, her pale skin was a reflection of the terror th

Thomas just sat still, folding his arms in a defensive gesture that shielded him from the conversation and arguments that the others were having. He seemed to be skeptical of their arguments but he kept it to himself. It was like he wanted to see how everything was going to pan out first.Frank spoke to encourage Janet. “Just put a call through to Sarah again okay? It doesn’t make you less of who you are. We have only one goal here and we can’t afford to throw in the towel when we are this close.”Janet’s inner voice bore witness with Frank and she decided to put the call through to Sarah again.Janet pressed the call button as the seconds went by and her heart was full of anticipation. She thought of what she was going to say if Sarah picked up the call because she knew that Sarah was going to ask why she hung up the other time.“Why are you calling again?” Sarah asked, her voice echoing through the phone and filling the air.“Erm, Sarah, I agree to your demands. I will concede my po

She couldn’t help but anticipate the moment that she was going to tell Lady Winston that she had made a costly mistake that almost ruined her. She couldn’t wait to hug Lady Winston so tight and let her know that she suffered a lot when she was in a coma.“I just need you to let Frank, Thomas, and Estevan in on our agreement. Without their go-ahead, we still don’t have anything concrete,” Sarah spoke.“Oh, of course, Sarah. I will get back to you within the hour. That’s not going to be an issue,” Janet spoke reassuringly.Janet then hung up the phone and immediately had an expression of a beacon of light dawn on her face. The enthusiasm on her face spread through the whole room as jubilant spirits coursed through their veins.Frank folded his fist in an excitement of victory. “Yes, the foolish b***h is finally coming back to her senses. You played this out so well Janet. You did much more than expected. All of this is possible because you were at the end of that phone call.”Estevan sp

“Hey watch your words Janet. I am your uncle - you don’t get to disrespect me like that. I wouldn’t take such from you ever again. Don’t mistake me for your sister Sarah who you can trade words with and insult or fight like cats and rats with. I am not like that. Be careful with your words.Janet’s face was a mask of displeasure, her tightened lips showing that perhaps she wasn’t going to argue about Thomas’ stance of not wanting to be disrespected. She rolled her eyes dismissively though, showing complete contempt.“Yes, you are right to say that I was initially on board with the idea that we call Janet and things were perhaps going well initially but you can’t tell me that you don’t see what happened after that? “Everything just seemed so thought out. Those conditions she gave, those words of worry and uncertainty that came from her - everything just seemed so thought about. I am not buying it even if you all are.”Frank frowned, his face narrowed in disappointment. “Thomas, this i
