Triumph Of The Belittled Son-in-law CHAPTER 186
Arggghhh! Eeek! Vanessa screamed in pain as she lost a slight grip on Rosette which she quickly took advantage of as she fled away from Vanessa in a sudden motion. Pow!Miriam immediately noticed that Vanessa had been exposed and with her body bracing against the recoil of her gun, she fired a decisive shot on her legs, rendering her crumbling to the ground.Vanessa’s knees were broken by the force of the bullet and she was rendered paralyzed from her knee down to her foot.Miriam then took long strides towards where Vanessa was writhing in pain.“I thought you were running your mouth so vigorously not long ago. What happened to you now?” Miriam mocked, her lips widened in a smug smile.Vanessa had so much disdain in her heart that she couldn't help but spit at Miriam in rejection, her lips curling with contempt. “To hell with you, Miriam!”Vanessa knew that she had lost the contention with Miriam and she was ready to die. She would rather die than beg Miriam like a coward.Miriam to

“Well, I am someone who came to save you,” Miriam responded.“Come on, I already know that. What I really mean is who you are, and where are you from. Who told you about me? Are you sent by my father to save me?”Miriam stylishly dodged the questions as she sipped an energy drink for a long time just to aim for less tension.“I mean, aren't you scared? You have just killed three people just to save me. What if the police come here and find out what you did? How are you going to defend yourself?”“I won't be alone though, would I?” Miriam asked, trying to poke Rosette with some mind games.“Erm, yeah, of course, it is only right that I stand by you but I still need to understand why we are not running for our dear lives because some more of those assassins could still be around.”“Don’t be scared, Rosette,” Miriam spoke calmly. “I can assure you that you are safe with me.”“Alright, thank you. But I need to see my dad. He has been worried about me and I have to tell him the good news a

Even before Sarah got to the wooden bed where Lady Winston was laid, she could see how tormented she was. Lady Winston’s body trembled greatly as if she were a leaf caught in the wind, her body faint and ragged. Her body was ragged with delicate shudders and her skin was pale. Her eyes were also glassy and the bed handles were shaking with effort.Why didn't they let her know that her condition had deteriorated to this extent? Sarah asked within her mind. She didn't like to see her mother suffer in the way that she was suffering. Is this the kind of horrible death that Paul and Doctor Lopez meant for her? Everyone watched with great focus, their eyes narrowed and their attention riveted on Sarah. Some of the other top employees who held big positions with Winston Corporation were also there to witness what was going to happen with Ladu Winston.Only one question was on their mind - Was Sarah going to be the one who would eventually rescue Lady Winston and save her?It was as if Sara

“Yeah, that’s very true. It was never this bad. The foot of the bench is even shaking so much as if it would give way.”“I suggest that they should take her into another larger bed before this one makes her fall - this one is too small, especially with the way that she is convulsing.”“Yeah, that is true. But does this mean that the antidote is not working? I thought Sarah was so sure about what she was administering on Lady Winston.”“My dear, I thought so too. It even looks like the matter is going to get worse and who knows if she will die.”“Stop saying that. She won't die. For the sake of all of us, she better not die. I heard that she was close to having a breakthrough with the company’s finances. If she dies now, how are we going to be paid our previous salaries that have been owed? Frank or Thomas isn't going to take that responsibility on them.”“What then makes you think that Lady Winston would take such responsibility after recovering from a coma that is as dangerous as thi

Sarah shared in Janet’s panic, her eyes wide with terror and her body trembling with confusion. Sarah had her heart in her mouth as she prayed silently for Lady Winston to get back to consciousness. The extreme convulsion was definitely a function of the antidote, she thought.But was it something that was going to get better? She wasn't sure what was going to happen but she hoped that Lady Winston better respond positively. She couldn't even start imagining the way that Frank and even Janet were going to turn on her if she died just after giving her the drug that was meant to be the antidote.“Yes, let’s just be patient. She would get better,” Sarah responded. Her voice was low and uncertain and her body language betrayed her doubt.That was the most unsure response that she had ever given to someone in her life.She started replaying in her mind the moment when she fought with Doctor Lopez. What if the bottle Doctor Lopez showed to her actually wasn't the antidote? What if it was on
Triumph Of The Belittled Son-in-law CHAPTER 191
One of the agreements she had with Janet and the others that led to her getting the antidote was that she was going to be recognized as the hero and everyone would be made to respect her.But could it be that Janet had forgotten so soon or she was intentionally trying to steal her glory?Frank, whose scrutiny and suspicion had melted walked towards Lady Winston, his face edged with concern. “Do you not remember where you are?”Lady Winston looked around once again in an attempt to decode further what she was experiencing. “Oh, yeah. I remember, you are Frank and you are Janet. You are also Thomas, where is Estevan? I remember Estevan is supposed to be her too.”Estevan pulled towards Lady Winston and embraced her tightly. “Of course, I am here, Mum. I am so happy that you are back. I am so happy that you didn't die. I was so scared.”“You see, that is what I don't quite understand. I remember you all but I don’t know why there is a crowd here and why they are all looking at me as if I

Lady Winston soon spoke, her words drowned with fatigue and her speech slow and deliberate as she feigned an extra bit of tiredness. “Hello everyone. I appreciate that you have all come here to witness this moment. I appreciate all those whose prayers and thoughts have been with me.”“But as you can see, I am recovering from a very delicate condition that would require that I have a long rest so I will be accompanied by my family - Frank, Thomas, Estevan, and Janet who I am sure must have been working day and night to ensure that I am back to normalcy.”The employees all erupted in applause, their faces contorted with nervousness as they gradually returned to their duty posts.Sarah’s expression was glazed, her eyes unfocused and her mouth hanging slightly open as she stared blankly, her features slack with confusion. Her haze was disoriented as she stared back and forth, her expression clouded with confusion and uncertainty. The applause was like a torment to her because it was cons

She recalled that she had forgotten the gun that Arianna gave to her in Doctor Lopez’s office. That gun was the evidence that was going to stand against her if Doctor Lopez died. Her mind started reeling with desperate thoughts. What if she had committed murder all for nothing? Was she going to lose on both ends? How long was she going to keep foolishly trusting her family to back her up and then proving that they were always going to stab her in the back?An investigation was going to be carried out into what happened with Doctor Lopez, she reasoned. They were going to trace it to her and tell Paul about it. She couldn't imagine how disgusted Paul was going to feel to learn that she had betrayed him even much more intentionally this time.The inner chamber had high ceilings adorned with intricate carvings. The walls were lined with tapestries and brilliant decorations conveying a sense of power and prestige. Frank and Thomas led Lady Winston until she reclined on a sumptuous chair

Paul who was darting from side to side in confusion soon saw a figure in front of him. His ropes were cut off a lightning speed as he was escorted out of the hall by a figure.Paul gasped in shock when he saw the figure that had come to protect him.“Dane Michaelson?!” Paul gasped in surprise. “Is this you? What are you doing?”Dane Michaelson was Paul’s long-term friend and high schoolmate who had always been like a guardian angel to him. He always protected Paul from bullies when he was in high school and even had a young age, Dane Michaelson had impressive fighting skills that he used to defeat anyone who came across him to defy him or any of his friends. Paul learned a few fighting skills from Dane but their friendship was put to a halt when Dane had to travel far away for a scholarship. He promised that he was going to be back though and that he would always keep an eye on him.“I told you that I would be back for you, didn't I?” Dane spoke in a hurried tone, his words coming o

He didn’t want Grandpa Leonard to suffer more than he already had and he was feeling as though he should have done more to protect Grandpa Leonard.Grandpa Leonard was also tied with bonds to the wheelchair and his face was set in a mask of grim determination as he endured the agony, his eyes narrowed with focus against the torrent of pain.“I am the head of the Imperial Society Syndicate, not him,” Pail spoke, trying to defend Grandpa Leonard.“Son, do not worry about me. This is not the time to speak of vain things,” Grandpa Leonard spoke sternly as if to tell Paul not to worry about him.The Red Witch erupted in a burst of laughter that echoed through the hall, her expression twisted into a malicious smile as she took pleasure in her evil deeds. It brought her so much joy to see Paul and Grandpa Leonard sit side-by-side and have their faces contorted with grief.Her smile curved into a malicious grin as she turned towards Paul. “Long time, no see Paul Leonard. Don’t tell me that yo

Paul could hear their voices and it was mixed with laughter and merriment. The stench of alcohol filled the place and Paul was wondering if it was the same person that was tied to a chair that everyone was celebrating about.But there was something else that caught Paul’s interest. He kept hearing them call out a Red Witch. He had heard the word more than twice already since his eyes fluttered open and from the conversation that his ears were able to pick, it seemed as if the Red Witch wasn’t just an ordinary person.It could be one of their leaders, he thought. Or could it be the person that was assigned to kill him and render whatever punishment they had against him?Paul was suddenly shocked when he received a huge flow of water attacking him on his face. He spluttered and shuddered as his body shook violently, expelling the water from his lungs. His throat was constructed painfully as he tried to draw breath. He shook his face repeatedly so that the water could fall off his face a

Sarah couldn’t help but defend herself. She wasn’t just going to keep quiet and allow things to happen to her. She had to speak up and defend herself, she thought.“I brought the antidote that is now the reason why you are alive. I suffered a lot and risked a lot to get the antidote. I had an agreement with Janet, Frank, and Thomas but they haven’t told me anything,” Sarah stammered in panic, her words tumbling out rapidly as she tried to explain herself. “I don’t deserve this treatment and I don’t understand why you have to force me here as if I shouldn’t be one of the partakers of the good things of Winston Corporation. If you knew what I did to get the antidote for you, you probably wouldn’t be treating me this way. What else do I have to do to prove that I deserve my previous position back.”Janet retorted. “Liar! Liar! You cannot get your previous position back. You are a rotten piece of dirt!l Janet retorted.”Janet was always upset by the fact that Sarah was desperate to get h

Sarah’s voice was breaking because she wondered what she said that was wrong. “Y-e-s.”“What?!” Arianna fumed. “What exactly are you still doing at the inner chamber? You have already made the mistake of giving them the antidote but what business do you still have there?”“I just think that maybe they would—-” Sarah’s voice was breaking with tension.Arianna spoke over her in a loud frothing. “You think what exactly? What exactly do you think? Are you still delusional enough to think that Lady Winston would give you the requests that you asked for?”Arianna’s tone was insistent and her expression furious as she rendered a warning. “What exactly are you still there for when they have already shown you the writing on the wall? Oh my goodness!”“You had better start running away from there because if the history of your family’s wickedness is anything to go by, then it won’t be long until they arrest you and even do much worse to you than they wanted to do before.

Arianna’s voice was tinged with a hint of unease as she tried to communicate her fears. “Doctor Lopez? Wait, don’t tell me that you tried to get the antidote from him to help Lady Winston.”Sarah bit her lips again because she didn’t know how to answer the question. “That’s exactly what I did,” she finally spoke out.“My goodness!” Arianna spoke out loud, her voice ringing with a loud echo from the phone as she conveyed her disappointment. “I thought that Paul already gave you a new and improved job. What happened that would make you go back to the same mess that you were coming from.”“I just couldn’t find it comfortable there. I couldn’t stop thinking about Winston Corporation. I thought that I felt at home at Winston Corporation,” Sarah attempted to justify herself, her voice faltering because she realized the fault in her argument.“Can you even listen to yourself?” Arianna seethed, her voice rising with a cold anger and tinged with disappointment. “You are somehow trying to justi

“Do you really think that I will listen to her deceits? She has seen that Paul can do no good for her and now she wants to return to where she made a life. Oh, how foolish does she think we would be.”“In any case, I am glad that she came right into our hands because now she will get the punishment that she escaped narrowly before. Who would have thought that she would come right under our nose so easily for us to dismantle her.”Janet's cheek flushed with happiness as she smiled brightly, her eyes shining with excitement.Of course, neither she nor her brothers had the intention of fulfilling the pact that they had with Sarah. They were all trying to get the antidote and now that Lady Winston was back in a healthy condition, they could do away with Sarah. In fact, Frank and Thomas especially were expecting Lady Winston not to suspend the punishment that she had earlier placed on her.“Come to think of it. Where is she now? Where did she go? “ Lady Winston asked. They all turned the
