Triumph Of The Belittled Son-in-law CHAPTER 34
Paul’s eyes lit up with curiosity. “What is it Grandpa?” He asked. He had always wanted to know more about Miriam and when he thought he had known something tangible about her, there always seemed to be something more left to be known.“Oh, chill, don't be too serious, it……” Grandpa Leonard responded but was cut short by a long streak of labored cough. His dry chest was rattled as he let out the painful cough.“Grandpa, you need to take care of yourself better,” he said, offering him a glass of water that he received from the driver. “I have received some reports that you are slacking in taking your medications.”“Reports?” Grandpa Leonard asked, his eyes opened in surprise.“Of course. Did you think that I would not have had the contacts of some of your guards to get information on how you are faring? Of course, the fact that I am now the head of one of the largest syndicates in the world doesn't mean that I would forget you.”“That is so good of you, my boy,” Grandpa Leonard remark

He soon widened his eyes in surprise when he found out that there was blood on his hands.Shit! Was it from his body? Was it Grandpa’s blood. It was quite dark but he angled his gaze toward Grandpa Leonard’s stomach and saw that the area was thick and melted. “Sir, we would have to help you out of there slowly is that alright,” the paramedic informed him, a small torchlight was on his hand.“You have to help my Grandpa, he seems to be bleeding,” Paul said nervously. He was still not yielding to the paramedic’s request to leave the crashed vehicle.“Sir, we will help you. That's why we are here but we need you to give us your arm so that we can lift you out of there. It's not safe for you in there,” another paramedic explained.The vehicle was in a destructive state with the roof pressed inwards and glass pieces shattered all over the ground.Paul realized that one of the glass pieces was stuck inside Grandpa Leonard’s body and that was what made him bleed.“You have to help him. He h

The EMTs looked at each other without talking but their demeanor showed a sense of defeat.“Let's use the defibrillator,” one of the EMTs pressured, not willing to give up on the poor man lying on the stretcher.“It's over man, we lost him. It would have been a miracle if he had survived. Now we have to look forward to the condition of the other two,” an EMT responded, referring to Paul and Grandpa Leonard.They all slumped their head in defeat, their eyes hanging low as they gritted their teeth. **Meanwhile, Paul was lying still in an hospital bed after the accident. His eyes were heavy and he had his vision a little blurred. His breathing was shallow and his mind was clouded with a host of thoughts.What could be going on with his grandpa? ‘What was today’s date again?’ he questioned himself. Perhaps he should write it down to remember it as the day that he lost his grandpa.No! Not today, another voice flushed into his mind. He started recalling how his mother died in a hospital

“What?! Are you asking me to excuse you? Who are you to tell me to excuse you? I am bringing to your notice something which you should take into consideration but you are too shallow to understand,” Mr. Timber fumed.“Sir, I have no problem with you. I just….” the nurse said but Mr. Timber interrupted her.“I have no problem with you either but I assure you that you will regret the day you were born if you bring up a reason why I should have a problem with you.”The nurse retracted her gaze away from Mr. Timber in a manner that seemed like she had succumbed. She really didn't want to annoy Mr. Timber. She was just an ordinary nurse on an average pay - why would she want to lock horns with someone from one of the richest families around?“Apologies Sir,” she uttered, bowing her head slightly.“I forgive you. I am sure you don’t know quite well who you were talking with and that is why you had the guts to ask that I excuse you,” Mr. Timber said, his shoulder rising in a pompous manner.

“How dare you assume that I would be jealous of you? Are you trying to turn this around and make yourself look like someone who isn't an idiot? You really have the guts to tell me to keep quiet. I will show you what it means for a cleaner and errand boy to talk back at someone like me.”Mr. Timber was clearly angry but he was still not done processing what Paul told him. Had they really divorced? Who was Sarah now pregnant for? He tried to crack his brain so that he could identify her suitors but it could be any of them.He thought of calling Sarah many times to woo her one last time but she always made up one excuse or the other as to why they couldn't even go on a date. Mr. Timber had always assumed that Paul was the reason for his constant rejection from Sarah.“Since you have not learned your lesson, you will….” Mr. Timber paused and then turned over to the nurse. “Excuse us, nurse,” he asked.“And why would I do that Sir, I came here to help Paul today. If I miss his chance, we m

“Shusssh! You need to be quiet,” Mr. Timber said, forcing the envelope into his pocket and straightening his uniform.“That is for you to go in there and get Paul arrested — he is the one on that hospital bed. I am sure you can do that for me right? I mean 500 dollars would make you look more handsome, wouldn't it? You could afford a few more of those male toning creams,” he winked toward the security even though he was still very fidgety, sweat forming a camp on his forehead.“But Sir, I don't have such powers. I don't have the power to arrest on my own. I can only restrain a person while I inform my bosses to come and make the arrest.”Mr. Timber’s mouth curled into a false smile, disappointment written on his face. “Erm, okay then. This is what you are going to do. I need you to request his license. If he doesn't have, you are going to tell your bosses that you have reason to believe that he attempted to kidnap the grandmaster but unfortunately got into an accident.”Officer Yoro’s

“Okay, okay, Listen to me. Let's start here, what is your name?” Paul asked.“Camille.”“Alright Nurse Camille, I need you to take a breath. Take it in, take it out,” Paul urged Camille, leading her through the way as she tried to breathe in and breathe out.“Take it in, breath out—-take it in, breath out,” Paul led Camille through the procedure for almost 90 seconds before she started feeling a little better.Her hands were still fidgety but at least she didn't look like she was going to faint the next minute anymore.She soon folded her fists to absorb the pressure. “Hey, look. Paul or whatever your name is—since I started my career almost 10 years ago, I have never had a patient who gives me as much trouble as you have done.”“What do you mean? You agreed to come down here with me.”“Oh, are you now going to pin this on me?” the nurse flared her nostrils.“No, no—I am not trying to pin anything on you. I appreciate you coming down here.”“Which was a huge mistake,” the nurse cut in

“Okay, listen. My grandfather is a popular name among the richest families in the country. He is known to be the sole owner of the Imperial Society Syndicate,” Paul explained, still trying to hide the fact that Grandpa Leonard had now willed most of his possessions to him and put him as the head of the syndicate.Camille listened intently, her brows furrowed in concentration as Paul continued.“He has a lot of allies but also enemies. It's impossible to be that wealthy and influential without having a host of enemies who want to kill you.”“Hmm, I guess you are right,” Camille nodded.“Yes. He is currently in his most vulnerable state right now as he is lying on that hospital bed. If I had enough strength, I would have fought off the paramedics and prevented them from bringing them here. He has more than enough to give himself private medical care which is top-notch.”“That is why I have been asking about his condition. I am very sure that several men from these families would have be
