'Father-in-law came?' Sett immediately bolted out of his stupor; at the same time, he caressed his temples. 'What's their reason for coming here? Then, is it possible that they were looking for Sheila?' Sett thought at the back of his head, but then again, he wouldn't be able to find out from their lips if he didn't open the door."Aunty Margaret, can you take Nini with you upstairs to her room?" Sett said solemnly that he had to be prudent in dealing with his in-laws, especially his father-in-law, who was quite the snobbish type."Brother..." Nini uttered while puffing her cheeks. She was unwilling to be unable to help her dear brother. "Nini, you have to listen to your big brother." Aunt Margaret started. The moment she saw Mr. Clayton Laurel and Madam Clair's aggressive expressions and body posture, she knew young Master Sett would be in trouble."I understand... But brother, don't let them bully you, alright? " She reluctantly agreed, understanding that she wouldn't be of much h
"Yes." Sett said truthfully while wiping the blood on the corner of his lips that smelled somewhat metallic from the punch. "Why did you do that?" Sheila said while her grip on her skirt tightened up. "That bastard deserves it. That A'hole should feel lucky that I didn't kill him." Sett's eyes grew cold as he said that. Mr. Clayton was dumbfounded, nearly losing his mind as he heard Sett's reply. He felt like killing Sett directly as he spoke. "How dumb can you get? The current Rotherford family head only has a single heir, and that's young master Marco! Do you realize what you've done? You literally ended their generation. On top of that, the current patriarch has already aged beyond his prime! I want you to personally apologize to them for this instance." "Why should I? They ought to be the ones that'll apologize to me." Sett said with a shrug of his shoulder. To him, the Rotherford family was simply the pestilence of society! 'They had better behave themselves if they still c
"I don't want your excuses. Sett, if you value our relationship, I want you to go to the hospital where young master Marco is being treated and personally apologize to him and compensate for the damage you've done. Otherwise, it would be too late!" Sett massaged his forehead. Actually, he didn't want to fight with his wife and wanted to simply agree with her terms. However, this time he didn't want to back down, as he had to stand on his principles. If they were simply chatting about other things, he might simply shut up without talking back to his wife. Yet this time, it was an entirely different story, as this accident involved several factors, such as the victims and their families, because of Rotherford's shady business. Apologizing to young Master Marco, who was a criminal's son, would be the same as admitting that all the allegations he submitted to the media would be for naught, and most of all, it would be disrespectful to the deceased victims. With that, Sett felt helpless a
"Don't joke with death, old man." Sett said through the phone while moving the dumbbell under his arm. "By the way, why'd you call me? Old man?""Take a guess~." Grandpa Mark spoke with amusement on the phone.What's with this suspense? Sett raised his eyebrows as he pondered his thoughts for a moment. 'Maybe it had something to do with the acquisition of the entertainment industry, namely the "Dreams Do Come True." That must be it...'"Old man, does it have something to do with the Laker Family entertainment business?""Grandson, your hunch was closer, just a little bit more and you'll have guessed it correctly! Anyways, I've heard from little Jane that you've accomplished the task I gave you." On the phone, Grandpa Mark's tone when speaking was relatively cheerful and full of taste. "So, I decided to make you a middle man and meet our bothersome clients! Just sign those documents in my name..." Grandpa Mark continues to chatter about the clients, that they should be arriving now at
"I suppose that you ladies wouldn't prefer to date a fat guy like me." Sett exaggerated the word "fat" as he suspended his sentence while glancing at his reflection in the mirror. "Well, technically."Sett lightly chuckled at the two spiteful girls, Lisa and Vanessa, making their faces turn red as a tomato. Sett smiled at them, showing his dimples. This causes them to blush hard. They had to admit to themselves that although Sett was a formerly fat guy and also mocked them just now, regardless, they couldn't bring themselves to hate him, and instead they admired his charms. Solely looking at his chiseled face and broad shoulders, they felt their bodies were being zapped in trembling. He was too damn hot to handle! Who cares if he was a fat guy before? It didn't change the fact that he had become a hot hunk of a dude! Just then, Lisa notices Vanessa's crazed gaze as she stares at Sett back, who was leaving. Instantly, Lisa understood that besides Kate, who was dragging Sett aside, t
Sett glanced at Kate, who was fidgeting beside him in the front passenger seat of the car while her eyes kept darting around the car controller and the windows.But why was she silent?It never crossed his mind that Kate would be this noiseless. Nonetheless, he preferred it this way.As he was having a peaceful time while driving, he found Kate seemed to want to ask him something, but in the end, she hesitated. She was acting like a brat that was afraid to be scolded by her parents.Kate finally gathered her courage as she cautiously asked him. "Um, fatso, is this car yours?" "If I tell you that I borrowed it from the rental agency, then how the h*ck would I be so familiar with this car?" Sett sarcastically told her. "Also, stop naming me "fatso." Don't you think that phrase doesn't apply to me now?" Just then, Kate's eyes lit up as she heard Sett's first sentence while completely ignoring the rest."Aha, I got you now!" Kate smugly blurted out with a high-nosed smile, as if she had
"Who cares if it's expensive? I'll buy this dress and prove you as*holes." Kate was driven mad by these two servers' unfair treatment of her. In the first place, do these scambags even know the phrase "customer code of ethics?" Kate gritted her teeth as she highly doubted they'd understood it, as even basic decency was thrown into the mud! "Is this how you treat your customers? You two should be ashamed of yourselves, hmmp!" Kate snorted as she dragged Sett with her to the lower floor. The two servers exchange glances at each other as they shrugged their shoulders and followed Sett and Kate toward the first floor. "Miss, this is our latest dress that we are promoting. It is made in France, with famous tailors as the designers." A sales lady knew of this design being sold out, and it was the last piece, even though the customer had to back down because of its expensive price. "Wrap it up for me. I also want this one." Kate snatched the dress from the sales lady's hand as she tossed
"Who are you to speak to me in that manner? Don't you know who I am? I'm the Crossword family heir!"Xander was momentarily taken aback before he let out a breath and retorted back while glaring at Sett. He wanted to see Sett's reaction, but because Sett was wearing sunglasses that covered his expression, he couldn't do so. Sett smirked while thinking of when this self-titled idiot became the family heir. His grandfather, San Francisco, must have gone senile to do that."Ha, are you an idiot? You want to pay for your master when you're merely a small bodyguard? How are you going to get that much money?" Xander endearingly poked Sett's chest, which was quite an offensive gesture. He had to bend this bodyguard into his place. "Also, when your master isn't even speaking as a little bodyguard, you ought to shut up! A watchdog is a lot better than you, poor nutjob!"During this period, as Xander was speaking. He somewhat found this bodyguard oddly familiar, yet he couldn't put his finger
