Veangence of the Abandoned Son-in-Law

“Lick it like the beggar you are”Despite all that Darius had experienced in his life, he had never licked another person’s feet, not even his Father. But here his stepmother was telling him to bend and lick her feet.Darius’ face turned red in anger and embarrassment. How dare she! He had been taught by his mother several times to never bow down to anybody who wanted to humiliate him no matter what he had to suffer. So it was already ingrained in him to never bring himself too low for anybody.Immediately he stood up straight in anger as he glared at his stepmother and spat angrily. “Keep your money to yourself! I would never humiliate myself in front of you for any reason!”Instead she mocked him with a sinister laugh and asked him. “So how do you plan to treat your poor mother? I think you’re just so proud that you’ll rather see that bitch die than beg for help”“There’s no one who can help you Darius but I and my husband. But you’re too proud to beg. Since you don’t really want th

“Hahaha! Hahaha! This guy has finally gone crazy”Even though Carla’s family was laughing at him, it was an evil laughter as they mocked him. His grandmother in-law looked like she was about to pop a vein on her forehead.“You must be mad. Do you think you think I’m joking with you here? Or you’re trying to take advantage of the house that we have you and swindle someone with it?”His wife’s grandmother was obviously very irritated at him and she looked like she was about to explode.“After everything we’ve done for you ingrate, this is how you choose to reward our benevolence towards you? We provided a house for you to live in, gave you a job and now you think of it as a perfect time to show your true colours?”In her mind she had always disapproved of Carla getting married to Darius but her granddaughter was just to stubborn. Despite knowing Darius’ financial state, she still stayed with him. Her grandmother never knew what was going through her mind and she had always failed to ge

Darius felt much better with himself as he watched other cars pass by the ones he was in. A little while later he heard a loud growl from his stomach. It was protesting that he had not eaten since the previous day. ‘Calm down, almost there. Things are going to be so much better now.’He picked up his phone and called the hospital. He wanted to check up on his mother and see if she was faring well. A nurse picked the call and assured him that the surgery had been completed successfully and that his mother was resting. He told the nurse he wanted to speak with his mother so the nurse took the directed the call to his mother’s bed.“Hello mum, how are you doing?” There was a tone of worry in his voice. He heard a low chuckle as his mother replied him weakly.“I’m doing well Darry, you don’t have to keep calling me everytime.” *cough* She paused and swallowed. She sounded weak and tired.“The doctors have performed the surgery on me. I’m feeling much better but I need to rest. I hope you’

Darius was quite surprised that his wife called him. They hadn’t spoken since the argument the previous day, but he picked up nonetheless.“Hello, Good morning dear.” He greeted in a full tone.“Hey Darius, I had a discussion with Grandma after you left yesterday.”‘Wow, no greeting..’ Darius thoughtShe continued. “She still wants to you sign the divorce papers but after I spoke to her she agreed to let you stay on one condition. I’m trying to get a 10 Million Dollars deal from the Charlton group of companies. She said we must seal the deal before she’ll allow us to stay together.”‘Charlton Company? Isn’t that my company now?’ Darius thought.“That’s great news, Carla. Why don’t you go on ahead. I’ll come meet you there. We’ll work it out together.” Darius said with a little relief and excitement. Perhaps this was his opportunity to show who he was now and make them respect him. He’ll surely gat his wife back.“Okay, I’ll be there in 30 mins. You don’t really need to do anything. Dr

Immediately Carla left the office. She approached Philip.“Thank you very much Philip. I really couldn’t have done it without your help.”“This is a small thing Carla. It didn’t even take much to convince the CEO. My dad had everything handled. I can do much more than I'd ever need. You just need to ask.” He said smugly.She opened her mouth to talk but was abruptly cut off again, “I have influence all over the companies here. Just let me know anyone, I won’t hesitate to destroy them for you. When it comes to my woman, I’ll do anything.” He added arrogantly, a cocky grin on his face.“Alright Philip, I’ll take you by your word. I won’t hesitate to call you when I need a favour.” Carla replied, managing to throw him a smile before walking away.Suddenly, he grabbed her hand and pulled her back towards him, catching Carla in surprise as she widened her eyes.“Let me drop you at home. It won’t be nice after signing a deal that was granted because of me and taking a cab home. I’ll drop yo
