"I ain't gonna let you go just like that!" William twisted Thomas's hand harder, the bastard screamed in pain."Willing to donate or just die?!" The 32-year-old man asked with emphasis."Let me go!" Unable to bear the pain, Thomas struggled and managed to break free from his brother-in-law's grip. The bastard walked over to grab the pistol that was lying on the floor earlier, and shot it right at William.A bullet immediately lodged in his arm, rendering William powerless. Blood began to flow from his wound, and he began to hold his arm tightly to prevent the bleeding."Stupid, who told you to come here?" Meanwhile, the bastard looked pleased to see his helpless enemy.Damn it! The bastard had wounded him, and he couldn't move freely anymore."You son of a bitch, Thomas!" William yelled, as his enemy was about to fire a bullet at him. He quickly moved to block the gun in the bastard's hand by kicking it hard until the pistol fell again.Weak William tried to take back his own gun befo
William was desperate, there was nothing he could do to save his foster child's life. He had even sacrificed his own dignity by approaching Thomas to ask him to donate his bone marrow. But his efforts were in vain."James, just open your eyes for a little while."William hung his head in despair, deeply regretting not knowing that James was suffering from such a serious illness. The 32-year-old man wiped away his tears and walked away from James in his hospital ward. He was going to talk to the doctor about something.As he walked, he accidentally bumped into a woman with long hair."Sorry. Didn't mean to." The multitude of problems was making his mind race. He only apologized and then walked away."William?"
"Bianca?" The 32-year-old man was taken aback when he saw the woman who bumped into him was his ex-wife. He took a step back slowly as they came face to face again. William wiped his tears and asked, "What are you doing here?"Meanwhile, Bianca appeared with a faint smile. Her face looked pale and uninspired at that moment."I have a doctor's appointment today. That's why I'm here," the woman coughed and covered her mouth with a tissue."Bianca? What's wrong with you?" His face turned anxious after seeing a spurt of blood coming out of her mouth when she coughed. William immediately approached his ex-wife.Bianca shook her head, "I'm fine, William." Even her voice sounded weak. It seemed like Bianca was hiding something at the moment.William then guided his ex-wife to sit for a moment, taking a deep breath. He tried to forget the painful past caused by Bianca's behaviours.Bianca looked down for a moment, then sadly gazed at her ex-husband and embraced him tightly."I'm sorry, Willia
"Bianca? Are you willing to help me? I need you right now." The 32-year-old man pondered something, and he needed Bianca to execute his plan.Bianca furrowed her brow, not yet understanding her ex-husband's words."What do you want me to do?"William whispered to Bianca, discussing something with her.After hearing William's plan, the woman was slightly surprised and hesitant. It involved her past. Initially, Bianca wanted to refuse her ex-husband's request. However, she thought about her past mistakes again. Regardless, she had to make amends.***That night, Bianca looked stunning in a black dress that accentuated her beautiful figure. Her face wasn't pale anymore after being carefully made up. She walked towards William, who was waiting for her outside her residence."William? How do I look?" Bianca asked about her appearance tonight. The 32-year-old man fell silent for a moment as he gazed at his ex-wife. It seemed like he was slightly captivated by Bianca, as if he was drifting i
The starry sky tonight made William feel a little better even though he just heard from his friend that he had been scammed by his co-workers.William then left his room and climbed down the stairs that lined with red carpet and had golden railings. He stopped on the last stair and focused his eyes on the sight of a family who appeared to be having a small dinner party.The Patterson family seemed happy as they celebrated Thomas Patterson's success. Thomas is the Patterson's first son-in-law, meanwhile William is the second."We must celebrate Thomas's victory tonight...""This accomplishment will belong to all of us. We will go on vacation to Hawaii..."Proudly, they gathered in the dining room, raising their glasses of wine to celebrate Thomas's achievement in a project deal worth one hundred million dollars.Meanwhile, William hesitated to approach them. He had just been scammed by an irresponsible person who promised William a project with a large amount of profit to be divided eq
"What reason made you come here, William?"William met his father-in-law in the office, the handsome man with a little beard under his chin was about to tell Mr. Patterson something."I want to divorce Bianca, Dad. It seems like I'm just causing trouble for you all." He hesitated to say it, but last night Bianca was very angry and decided to divorce him."Do you think I'm going to grant your request? I brought you here and married you to my daughter so you could take care of her! Why do you want to divorce your wife?!" The old man spoke in a high note, making William unable to do anything but be quiet."But, Dad. This divorce is Bianca's will, I can't continue this marriage. I'm afraid if this happens, I'll hurt her feelings." The 32-year-old man looked sad in front of his father-in-law."I've failed to be a good husband to her. I can't even make her happy. The business I built is always failing." In his heart, he even admitted that he was a loser.William considered himself a lucky l
"This has become my absolute decision! Nothing can change it except for me! Do you understand?"His decision cannot be challenged, William will take over the Patterson family's parent company and manage it.The 69-year-old man then took a sip of wine and said, "Y’all don't know how Thomas works, do you? You only know his victories without knowing how he works!"Even though Mr. Patterson knows Thomas's cunning ways, he still lets his son-in-law do something bad at the family's company. Thomas has several times embezzled funds from one of the Patterson family's subsidiary companies. That's why Mr. Patterson will not entrust the parent company to Thomas."Stop accusing Thomas of wrongdoing, Dad! I believe Thomas has never done anything bad! He's a good man! We've always known Thomas always brings good name to our family! Unlike your chosen son-in-law here!" The blonde-haired woman immediately pointed at William with a red face because of her anger spilling over."You don't know what happ
William and his father-in-law headed to the office together, and seeing how fond Mr. Patterson was of William made Thomas seethe with envy. Now, he knew what he had to do. Mr. Patterson's personal driver started to accelerate the car that he and his boss were driving. It was William's first day working at the company, and the first time in six years that he had a job that was much better than his previous one. His past life was very sad, living in poverty with both parents deceased. Furthermore, there was not a single penny of inheritance left by his poor parents. "William? Today, I'm going to meet with one of my colleagues. Are you interested in meeting him?" His father-in-law asked, breaking his morning reverie. "Of course.” William replied with a slow nod. Throughout the journey, Mr. Patterson gave him directions on how to become the CEO of the Patterson family's main company. He learned it very well and carefully. This time, he would try to prove that he was not a loser. ***
