Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 46 : Escape
Moira had never faced this situation ever before, where she was forced to control her rising emotions for so long.Earlier, whenever she had felt like doing something, she had always just gone ahead and done it without hesitation.Either just the Holmes name had been enough to silence anyone who dared to think about confronting her, or her father had taken care of it on her behalf.But for the first time, she was in such a dire situation where she needed Connor's help to escape; and so for the first time, she had bothered to think about the weird and unnecessary concept of consequences. That's why she had been biting back every single sassy retort till now- but on facing his unforgiving relays of sarcasm, she couldn't hold herself back at this point."Thank you for your advice, and since you've been so kind, I'll offer you one in return - if my ship is in danger, then there's no way yours is going to stay afloat for much longer. After all, you know what you've done…"A dark shadow cr
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 47 : He is back
"Who is it? Who is back?" Moira uttered the question in slight confusion.Because as far she knew, the only big and bad thing that had disrupted their life, was the new identity of Mark.Then who could it be, and why was Connor so afraid of this person.Like, what could Mark probably do to him? Unlike Andrew, Connor hadn't even touched him, or tried to assault him. "But what about grandma-" Her thoughts were left hanging in the middle as she heard his voice once again;"The only eye witness of that accident…Anthony…Anthony is back in the city-""An- Anthony… It can't happen! It cannot be happening, no no no… but wait…wait. Grandma… grandma will handle everything like she did earlier. We didn't have to worry last time, so we don't have to worry at all this time. Right-""Moira, come back to your senses!"Connor spoke, interrupting the monologue from Moira. He wanted to speak again, when she jumped in the conversation once again;"She will save us, she will make everything right, she
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 48 : Ruined
Moira slowly repeated the words spoken by Connor.She was completely unable to wrap her head around the possibility that the… event from five years ago would be standing in front of her once again, like a repeating nightmare.She remembered each and everything that had happened that day, in detail. And most importantly, she remembered clearly how the events had played a role in steering everything towards pure and utter chaos.She had always been aware of the fact that her grandmother tended to prefer her because she was the daughter of her only daughter.Unlike Cassie, who was her son's second daughter… but that was the first day Cassie had ever earned praise from her grandmother, as she had scored the highest marks in her high school and was eligible to join any college in the city for her further studies.Moira had been so upset that for the first time, she felt ready to go to any extent, only to bring Cassie down from the pedestal she had recently occupied.And for that, she had
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 49 : Crash
In the dimly lit bar, a volatile atmosphere hung heavy, threatening to erupt at any moment after the initiating punch had already landed. Before Matteo could retort, Andrew picked up a bottle from the bar, and smashed it against his shoulder, making him crumple to the floor as he shouted;"That'll show you, you rascal!" Although he had been aiming for the back of his neck, he had missed the target, but it seemed like it had still worked anyway. The patrons, initially gathered for a typical Friday night of drinking and dancing, found that they had become involuntary witnesses to a dramatic confrontation.The storm had already been set into motion by Andrew and Connor, who had responded to the provocation without bothering to know the identity of the person they were targeting.The two were fueled by anger and a misguided sense of justice for defending the dignity of someone who had already lowered herself enough. Stunned and disoriented, Matteo tried to stand up on his own legs, st
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch -50 : Dark secrets
Cassie dusted off her clothes after the final jump, which landed her on the ground at long last.Walking around the yard and out of the gates was simple enough, as the guards on the gate had not been informed of the spontaneous house arrest placed on her, maybe because Mark never expected her to leave like this in the first place.Still, she made sure to take a few steps away from the gate before holding out her hand to hail a cab.As soon as the taxi stopped in front of her, she asked, "To the police station, please?"Cassie could feel the judgment in the driver's questioning eyes as he looked at her from head to toe, taking in her clothes and state before nodding.With a flushed face, she got into the back seat, thanking her stars for the emergency cash she kept stashed into her phone case.Before she realized it, they had reached the police station, and she rushed towards the holding cell that the police officer had told her about. "Grandma!"She reached towards Lady Holmes with t
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 51 : Blood relations
Moria whirled around the moment she heard Mark's voice, feeling like her throat was suddenly lined with thorns.Before Connor could get a word out of his mouth, the tension on her face melted away into a wide smile. For a second, this left Connor utterly confused, but everything started to make sense as soon as she rushed towards Mark with her hand pressed against her chest."Brother- in- law! I'm so relieved that you're finally here!"With a pitiful look on her face, she latched onto his arm, "I don't know if you know this, but Co- Connor was also involved in that accident and I rushed here as soon as I could, to stop him from fleeing!Had I known about your identity earlier, brother- in- law, I would have told you the truth forever ago to bring the culprits to justice!I- I was told to stay silent by my grandmother, and you know how powerful she is within our family."She blinked softly, with her big eyes filled with tears that were just about to fall off- to show how helpless she

They two of them hadn't even taken two steps, when Mariella yelled again;"Try, try! Try as much as you can, but always remember, that you may fool my granddaughter, but not me!"That's it! That was the end of Mark's patience, which snapped right then and there. He turned around and walked towards her once again, letting go of Cassie's wrist."Really? And how do you think I am fooling her?""I know that you only chose to come closer to her because you doubted that her brother Andrew had killed your brother, isn't it-""Oh, really? So that's what you think!"Mark tried to tame his anger, knowing that the lady standing in front of him was just trying to provoke him… otherwise, she also knew well enough that when he had met Cassie for the first time, he wasn't aware of her family background at all.But while he was trying to control his emotions, he heard her voice, challenging him once again. "Why? Why can't I think about what the reality is! Because let me tell you, I am just making
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 53 : Resemblance
Doubts, hopelessness and uncertainties were the main reasons for anxiety and panic attacks in Mark's case.And while holding the door of his car, the moment he thought that he was going to experience another one of them now, he felt a hand on his left shoulder.That touch made him look back, bringing him face- to- face with another set of eyes. It took a minute for him to realize that he wasn't dreaming, but it was really Cassie who was standing in front of him.For a moment, they both stayed silent as their gazes locked with each others'.They both stayed stuck in the dilemma of what they should say next.But then when Mark had finally found the words to ask her why… why did she have to betray him like this, when he had clearly asked her to stay away from her family?He had clearly told her that they were not the kind of people she thought them to be.And they didn't like it, which was also apparent to her.Then why did she have to betray him like this, after lying to him and escapi
