Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 13: Insulted In Front Of The Guest
Sett and Nini, who had just taken a seat, were suddenly reprimanded by the Crossword family waitress. Sett stopped his sister from standing up, but he did awkwardly stand up from his seat. It was impossible not to feel embarrassed when most of the guests were already seated and only the waitresses and the waiter were standing up to serve the guests. "Why are you standing there? Have you no manners? You're supposed to greet your uncles and aunts. How disrespectful. The family head's decision to cut ties with your parents was the right one." Madam Claire spoke in a taunting manner, and because her voice was quite loud, as though she was afraid that everyone wouldn't hear her, as the guests' eyes were now on Sett and Nini. She had intentionally done this to embarrass them all the more. "Waiter, give this nephew of mine the wine bottle. Now, now, Sett, be a good boy and serve us some wine to drink."Sett could feel his sister's anxious grip on his shirt, and he led Nini to a seat in the
Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 14: Not Enough
"Happy? You must be kidding me, my pig cousin. As long as you're alive, I won't let you off so easily." Xander had always hated Sett since childhood. He was often second in everything because of his cousin. Sett was good at both academics and sports, so the family elders always praised him. These invoke Xander's jealousy and envy toward him. After Sett's parents were kicked out of the Crossword family, Xander and his cousin Amanda, who also hated Sett, wouldn't let go of the opportunity to suppress him and teach him a lesson."Stop talking, the family head has arrived!"At this time, everyone stood up and clapped as an elderly man wearing sharp attire was accompanied by the Crossword family elders. He was heading toward the officials who were sitting at the guest of honor’s table. This elderly man was none other than the Crossword family head—"Francisco Crossword"—and also Sett's grandfather."Don Francisco, I wish you great health and prosperity for your Crossword family. It's tru
Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 15: Sheila?
As the Phantom Car's doors were pushed open, a woman walked out. At that instant, everyone's eyes were drawn to her. Like she was some kind of a magnet. She was extremely beautiful in her pink gown while her hair was tied in a bun. Xander was dazed as he was struck by her naturally green eyes. The hot-blooded young men that were present had their eyes shaped into hearts. On the other hand, the woman was green with jealousy.At this point, someone in the crowd recognized the lady."Isn't she the young missus of the Laurel family? Sheila Laurel. "She's gorgeous. No wonder the guys present are drooling over her." A lady in her twenties smiled bitterly as she saw her boyfriend's idiotic face as he kept staring at Ms. Sheila Laurel."I'm really jealous of her. Not only is she considered one of the most beautiful ladies in Darian City. She's considered a princess in the Laurel family. Her family owns one of the biggest real estate businesses in Darian City. Also, their jewelry shops are kno
Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 16: Rotherford Family
Although others may perceive Young Master Marco's speaking as arrogance, he indeed had the capital to be arrogant as the Rotherford family had a vast number of properties in the city center, and it wasn't limited to just hotels but also well-known bars and a grand gambling casino! "My apologies to family head Francisco for being late for your birthday. But don't worry, family head Francisco, my grandfather had me prepare a lavish gift for you! I hope you can forgive my earlier rudeness!" Marco said, in a voice that was neither arrogant nor servile. He handed a black card with an intricate design to Family Head Francisco. "What! T-This young Master Marco, isn't this the highest VIP card in your family casino? This black card entitles the holder to a variety of benefits, the most important of which is a 20% discount!" "How can you just give it away?" The family head, Francisco, was taken aback by this gesture. He was also flattered. As only first-class families can enjoy the VIP car
Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 17: Confrontation
Young Master Marco, threats fell on deaf ears as Sett passed by him. Sett was now standing in front of the silent Sheila, who was coldly looking at him.Sett could hardly believe that his wife would have such a chilling gaze. Sett couldn't give up just yet! Who didn't know what kind of reputation the young master Marco of the Rotherford family had? Without breaking eye contact with his wife, Sett parted his dried lips. "My wife... I know you hate my guts. Yes, I'm a fat coward, a worthless piece of sh*t who can't even stand in front of his in-laws and protect the woman I love... Regardless, that's all from the past." At this point, Sett took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but as soon as he caught a glimpse of young master Marco, who was the reason his wife wanted to divorce him, his emotions started to flood out. "Sheila, you know that I always put you on a higher pedestal and treated you like a queen, and it's alright if we have a fight, as every relationship is mess
Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 18: Ms. Jasmine's departure
"Why are you butting in you little brat? The adults are talking, so you better shut the f*ck up... Both of you siblings are inevitably good for nothing!" Xander let out, he knew that it was his chance to crush Sett once and for all. He wouldn't let go of such a golden opportunity!In response, Sett clenched his jaws, eventually letting out a breath. "Grandfather, I'm sorry for what happened here, and for being unable to hand my gift to you personally. I will leave immediately."After saying that, Sett didn't wait for a second longer as he left. He could still hear Xander's sneering voice."Gift? It must be something worthless, coming from a pig who can't even buy himself a proper set of clothes." Xander scornfully said, causing everyone to burst into laughter. "Anyway, if I see anyone helping or keeping in touch with that disrespectful brat, I'll make sure they suffer the same fate as him! I'll personally kick him out of the family. Do I make myself clear?" Xander questions the junior
Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 19: The Famous Painting
"Heh, although I'm not the young master of the Crossword family anymore, even a dog knows how to greet its owners." Sett smirked.The hot-tempered guard was stunned. If he really punched Sett, wouldn't that mean he was worse than a dog? Also, the family head would surely punish him if words got out. Just imagine what people would say? A guard was hitting a young master of the Crossword family that he was working for... By then, he could kiss his job goodbye!"I..." The hot-tempered guard stuttered. It was like he was poured down with a cold bucket. He quickly let go of Sett while apologizing profusely. He still had his family to feed, so he couldn't afford to lose his job. It was at this moment that a Lamborghini came speeding toward them. Stopping beside Sett and the shell-shocked guards, it was not the end of their surprise as a gorgeous lady suddenly came out. "Ms. Scarlett?" Sett did not expect that it was her. "Mr. Crow, I really apologize for being late. I almost forgot to g
Underestimated Son In Law Chapter 20: Difference Between Poor And Rich
"Director Lowell, if it turns out that this painting is genuine, can you take full responsibility?" Dr. Hottun's sharp gaze made Director Lowell nearly sh*t his pants. "You aren't afraid of losing credibility? How would people see it by then? No one would do business with people that do not have credibility." "Actually, Dr. Hottun, I was just joking. In fact, the painting is profound..." Director Lowell said with convection, making everyone flabbergasted. With no apparent shame on his face, Director Lowell moved on to explain. ".....Peering at this angle, this is indeed a genuine painting. The canvas and the oil paints are top-notch, and the artist has a high level of understanding of the art. The pattern and strokes through its smallest details are superb. It's a high-quality work of art..." By now, everyone was holding their breath. Looks of admiration were being thrown at the family head, Francisco, who appeared to be calm, but inside he was trembling with excitement and antic

Chapter 187: Saving Nostalgia
Jane was discussing the plan to everyone, which took a lengthy amount of time to properly formulate in order to avoid any kind of problems with the plan. Sett was also listening very closely as he was assigned a very crucial role in the plan. He was assigned as Azula’s compulsory plus one, which Azula agreed since Sett isn’t a Sapphire House subordinate.After everything fell into place, and everyone agreeing to their assigned positions, the meeting was finally adjourned. Azula dismissed the twelve and instructed them to start the preparations immediately, while letting Jane and Sett stay for there was something that she wishes to address to the both of them in private.As the twelve finally left the room, the atmosphere suddenly became breathable again, aside from the sudden silence that filled the air. Azula and Jane just sat there, not uttering a single word and just waiting on whoever breaks the silence first.Sett then thought of something mischievous that made him smirk.“Hey, A

Dear Ms. Rowena Azula Crow I am writing this letter to request personnel from the Sapphire House for an upcoming mission. I only ask for one individual, and I request that it would be you, Ms. Crow. Before we start with the formal briefing for the mission, I would like to Test your capabilities first, since the latest aid that I requested proved to be incompetent. Mock Training will begin tomorrow at the Emerald House’ Training Grounds. I’ll be expecting your attendance tomorrow, at 7pm. Please be there on time. Sincerely yours: Roman Isaac Crow“And that’s that.” Azula said as she finished reading the letter. “The nerve of that brat to ask for another assistance request.” she added.After Azula folded the letter back inside its envelope. Everyone inside the room stared at her, a

Chapter 185: An Unexpected Surprise
Sett left the Medical Room, leaving Jessica inside. As he was walking down the hallway, he was contemplating everything that he had learned so Far. Even though he was feeling a bit at ease because he had learned so much about his real family, it was still a lot of information to take in for someone who just arrived the very same day.By the time that Sett finally got time for himself, it was already almost midnight. He decided that he should just call it a day and go to his room to rest. He walked back towards the lobby to head upstairs and finally hit the hayAs Sett was about to go up the stairs, the sound of knocking suddenly resonated across the whole lobby, there was no one there other than himself so he opened the door. The moment he opened up the door, there was no one there. The only thing that’s there was a sealed envelope.It was addressed to his Aunt Zula, but he thought that she was already asleep. He closed the door and decided that he should keep this letter for now and

Chapter 184: The Revelation of Power
Sett raised his eyebrows in confusion as response to Jessica's statement. It was as if she was expecting that he would ask her about it then and there. She finished tidying up the equipment then grabbed a chair to sit next to Sett. Her eagerness was as if she was a child, trying to share something she just knew to her parents.“So how much do you currently know about it?” Jessica meticulously asked before sharing everything she knew to Sett.Sett was a little bit surprised and curious about how much she actually knew about. Intrigued with whatever information that she could give, he decided to lay down a brief and still non-detailed outline of everything he knew, still leaving some parts hidden for Azula’s sake.As Sett finished the information dropping, Jessica gave her a skeptical look. She had a hunch that there was some information that Sett withheld from her, which was understandable. She didn’t want to pry on whatever it was he and his aunt talked about upstairs. She knew that

“You’re joking, right?” Sett asked in bewilderment of the sudden revelation that just presented itself to him.His statement somehow managed to anger Jessica even more. She paced herself slowly towards where Sett was standing with clenched fists, ready to bust his head again. With her choosing violence as her response, Sett was forced to apologize for his statement earlier to avoid any other conflict to arise.“I should be the one to ask you that you prick!” Jessica naggingly said to Sett. “There’s no way that you’ve spent all that time at Mother Azula’s office, and not learned of the foundational rules that your house has!” she added.“I did learn a little bit about the foundational rules, but…” Sett was cutted off mid sentence.“See! Now you admit that you do know about the House’ foundational rules! But why the fuck didn’t you use that and deny Young Master Roman’s request, huh?!” Jessica furiously said.Though Sett was getting a little irritated with Jessica’s aggressive accusatio

Chapter 182: The Untimely Truth
“Oh, my apologies Sett! I must have been hit by the memories of old a little too strongly.” Azula said as she wiped the tears off her face.However, Sett wasn’t convinced by such reasons. Sure, you could cry when you’re hit with nostalgia, but that is out of a joyful, euphoric feeling that overwhelms you to the brink of crying. But in Azula’s case, Sett noticed that her tears weren’t a product of such positive feelings.In fact it was the total opposite. Sett sensed that, the moment he saw her eyes devoid of life. An imperfect match for her ocean blue eyes, that seemed so full of life. He thought that whatever was bothering her, seemed like a burden that was still weighing down his Aunt, even until now.“Are you sure you’re alright Aunty?” Sett asks, deeply in concern for what Azula is feeling.Azula just looked at Sett with heavy laden eyes. She wanted to tell him about what really happened to his dad. However, it was still too early for him to know the truth. If he’d learn about it

Chapter 181: The Past that Haunts The Present
With Azula willing to tell him everything he wanted to know, with a promise that no form of information would be held back. Sett felt conflicted. After all, there is a pressing concern that they should face first. As much as Sett wanted to sit down and potentially receive all the answers to his questions, he couldn’t overlook the fact that there is a life at risk.He was about to reason out with Azula and decline the opportunity she presented to him, but Azula cutted him off by standing up and walking towards a bookshelf near her office table. She took out a very old, hard-bound book from the top shelf. The dust that it accumulated is the indication of how long that book was left untouched.“This book holds everything that you want to know if you wish to learn more about our family’s history.” Azula stated as she gently blew on the book, revealing its true worn-out, rustic black cover.Upon further inspection, there was an embedded mark on one side of the book covers. It was a mark o

Chapter 180: It All Starts Here
“What the hell were you thinking Aunty?!” shouting Sett’s voice could be heard outside of Azula’s office. “Even a person who is mentally impaired could easily understand what wretched hell awaits Ann at the hands of that swine!” he exclaimed, making sure that Azula captures how dire Ann’s situation is, now that she’s in Roman’s clutches.Azula on the other hand, was assessing the situation silently, while sitting on the couch. She understood the way Sett feels especially after the stunt his emotionally and mentally disordered cousin pulled earlier. But this wasn’t the time for them to start acting like helpless children.All Azula could think of was Ann’s safety. She must come up with something to insure Ann’s safety, especially when the one she’s with is her psychoneurotic nephew. Now the question is “how?”. It would be useless for her to just recklessly barge herself through the Emerald House’s front doors because Roman would have told them about the whole thing.She also couldn’t

Chapter 179: True Colors
While Roman was still on the floor, wiping the blood off his nose. He scoffs, then proceeds to laugh in amusement, acknowledging the fact that Sett caught him off guard. Roman somehow considered it as an entertaining happenstance, that Sett found a small window of opportunity, and took it to give him a cheap shot like that.“That was very clever. Still a cheap shot, but it was clever.” Roman said as he stood up from the floor and fixed his now wrinkled button down shirt. “However, I’m not in the mood to fight you anymore. So stop cock-blocking me, and get the hell away from Azula.” He added with an irritated voice.“Make me.” Sett provokingly responded.Roman’s blood started to boil after hearing Sett’s remarks. At that moment, he thought that it would be an easy win to get past Sett since he didn’t possess that much threat. But what concerned him was how Azula would react right after. Roman glanced at Azula and saw how composed she still is. Even after what happened, she still seemed
