Thomas POV;I sneezed and I felt as if someone was cursing at me. I was sitting in my office and It wasn't dusty or anything so why would I even sneeze?I rubbed my nose a bit.I am exhausted.CEO Derek Paul had already left after showing me the ropes of everything before leaving the company to enjoy his early retirement.He refused to tell me where exactly he relocated to ,but last I heard from him bought a piece of land he wanted to use and farm.I have already asked him if he wants to start selling agricultural products but he just laughed it off.I don't honestly know what's going on in his mind.I looked over the documents piled on my office desk as I signed them after reviewing it.I thought being CEO meant you just needed to spend money and invest. Oh boy was I wrong.I have gone to numerous meetings just so I can introduce myself to potential investors.Yeah this wasn't as easy as I thought but seriously it has paid off. I can say now for a fact that this company was no lon
Underrated Son-In-Law Chapter 31: Grace is a sweet soul.
Thomas POV; Two days later I was sitting at a restaurant waiting for Grace to arrive.She called me earlier to tell me she would be running late because she overslept.I guess she was tired from work, don't blame her. I can't count the number of times I slept in my office in the past month.I ordered wine and was taking small sips from my glass of wine till she arrived."Isn't that Thomas the gold digger?" Someone asked and I was snapped out of my thoughts.I know that it was me she was referring to. I turned to the lady and her friends."You should shove those words into your mouth if you don't want your life to be ruined." I warned her and she was taken aback by my words.Seriously, people should learn how to mind their own damn business.I mean I was just sitting here literally minding my own business doing nothing but drinking wine and she had to go and open a blabbermouth.So unladylike and a complete turn off.How does a man even date a sly woman like her?"You have no right
Underrated Son-In-Law Chapter 32: Natalia is looking for me.
Thomas POV; I nearly chuckled when I saw how Grace was staring nervously at me. What could be possibly going through her mind. If there was anything I liked about her it was how she was extremely cautious and patient. That was why she stayed for more than 5 years in Natalia's house, because I knew many maids that have left that damn house because of how poorly they were treated. "I want you to…" The waiter arriving with our food cut my words short. I knew she was still listening but I waited till our food was served and the waiter left before speaking again. I didn't want to get interrupted again. "You can help me by cooking me a delicious meal. Sometimes it helps me regain most of my lost strength." I said and Grace glared at me. That wasn't what I wanted to say but I guess I missed her cooking as well. The words I wanted to say were , would you tell me what the heck got Natalia so stressed that she was lashing out at her beloved maid. Natalia liked Grace more than the othe

I took the elevator up to the floor of Oliver's office. Upon seeing me Oliver's secretary smiled."Good afternoon Mr. Thomas."

Thomas's pov;What are the odds that I will meet Natalia's younger brother in a bar,zero right but here he was standing in front of me with a big grin on his face.I don't think I have the strength to deal with him now but if I wanted to walk away I knew well enough that he might cause a scene given how childish he was. So I think it's best I play along because I was exhausted and just needed a drink.Ignoring Jasper for a moment ,I took out my phone and texted my driver the address of the bar and told him to come get me as fast as he could.I can explain to kelvin later why I left.Jasper was with two of his lady friends, one was clinging onto his hand and the other was just posing and showing off her body which was exposed because of her choice of dressing.He sure knows how to pick his women.He goes for the lowest that just boasts his ego.Jasper smirked as he walked up to me with his head held up high ignoring the forced smile I put on.It's either he was dense or he just doesn'
Underrated Son-In-Law Chapter 35: Did Jasper actually see Thomas?
Natalia's POV;Sitting on the couch in our living room, I crossed my legs as I nibbled on my lower lips,a finger tapping in my lips as I was in deep thoughts.I was already having a headache as it is so I didn't know why he would do this.He knows that I was already stressed from the pregnancy so adding more stress to it was not something he should do but I don't understand why he was acting this way.Ever since I gave Barke that money that made my Father hit me and I haven't heard from him.I informed him that my Father was furious and hit me because of the money I sent him and all he said is that he would make it up to me, but with the way Barke was acting I was doubting if I did the right thing.I was worried but he did send me a text explaining that he was attending a business meeting and couldn't call.But what type of business meeting would he be in that he can't answer a call nor even call me back later,he hasn't even asked about how I and my child were fairing.I didn't want t

Natalia's POVJasper chuckled and waved his hand frantically."What? No mom, I didn't get myself into any trouble." He replied."I think I had too much to drink and don't recall what exactly happened..hehe.." Jasper chuckled trying to cover the topic but I just wanted to know if he actually saw Thomas. I don't care about what he did or if he wants to get himself into trouble.Jasper is a trouble magnet and I won't be surprised if he had borrowed money from loan sharks because Dad refused to give him money,he has done it before and Dad had to pay for the loan he took.Jasper was grounded for a month then but Mom later intervened and Dad let him.off the hook.I wonder why he was the only one that got away with things easily."Are you sure you didn't see Thomas?" I asked Jasper."You can smell the alcohol reeking all over my clothes ,I am sure I don't remember what happened, I think my brain is just trying to cover up the memories I couldn't recall after I got drunk." Jasper replied."P

Natalia's POVThe guard must have noticed I lost my balance as he drew me backwards to stand on my feet as my back hit the wall behind me, stabilizing my balance but I had already gotten scared because I thought I would fall down.I took deep breaths to calm myself down as I glared at the guard.I pushed myself off the wall as I raised my hand to smack the guard across the face but he caught my hand midair."You should not act this way ma'am,it's ungraceful." He said and his time sounded as if he was mocking me.What exactly is going on here?Why were mere guards treating me without respect?"Have you lost your mind? Let go of me this instant!" I shouted at him." You are fired !Get lost! You are fired!"I yelled at the guard as I tried getting my hand out of his grip, that was when I heard Dad's voice from downstairs."What are you still doing upstairs? I told you to get her downstairs if she refuses to come down by herself,drag her downstairs!" I heard Dad's angry voice coming from d

Chapter 138: Epilogue.
A YEAR LATER Thomas's POV I was in my office looking over some files when I stopped to suddenly stare at the picture frame of Grace and I on my desk. She told me to keep it in my office so she could brighten my day anytime I felt weak. Remembering her words made a smile form on my lips. I was glad I met Grace and I was even more glad to have her as my girlfriend. She did more for me than I asked of her and she never expected me to do anything in return, that was how she showed me she loved me. Even if meeting Natalia made me go through hardships at least I met Grace and I would never want to change the past if it meant not meeting Grace again, that was how much she meant to me. Life takes drastic turns now and then all we need to do is brace up for the impact. That's what I did and I was glad I have gotten to this point where I feel confident and loved. I finally got the company back to its former glory and I told Mr Gabriel and Logan that this was what they couldn't do. Mr

I asked in confusion.I was only planning on seeing Thomas here and I wanted to talk to him,there was no way he would see me in this bad state and not help me."I thought you were going to do your job immediately when you came here, I didn't think you would be

Thomas POVI was curiously waiting to see who just walked in."I am home." The female voice announced as she walked into the living room and I turned to look at her.He was carrying a backpack so I would only assume that this was Grace's last sibling."Good afternoon mom, " she greeted her mom with a smile."Good afternoon… who are you?" She asked when her eyes landed on me."Jane, behave yourself,it's Grace's boyfriend."
