Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 52 : Revelations
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
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch -54 : Spilling the beans
Mark stabilized himself as the voice fell in his ears, and it sounded really similar to Alex's voice.And as he turned around, he saw none other than Alex standing there, in the flesh!He almost could not believe his eyes as he got up and circled around the swing to hug his best friend, who was standing with his hands at his hips. "Alex, you're here!""Of course, you dumbhead! I know my best friend is so scatterbrained that he wouldn't remember to inform me about the day's events let alone invite me over, at least not until the adrenaline would wear off at midnight.So I just took the initiative to show up on my own and force you to formally apologize later."He added with a sassy shrug as Mark let go of him and stepped back. Whatever Alex said, Mark knew that him showing up here was the only thing that could get his mind off things.Otherwise, until he had given him a jump scare two minutes ago, he hadn't even realized that it was already past dusk!All of a sudden, as if he had ju
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 55 : New Uncle
It took a few moments for Cassie to realise who he was, and where she had met him.The confusion didn't seem to last longer in the section of his identity, but rather, the words he was mumbling were not only confusing but bordering on the territory of being offensive.Because there was nothing to be congratulated about, on the worst day of her life! Yes, it was indeed true that she had become the Managing Director of her family's company… but at what cost?! And while she stood there, completely frozen in her state of confusion, he spoke again;"Oh, c'mon! Sister-in-law, I know it's just the second time we are meeting, but once, again your dear husband is the one to blame here.Because trust me, if he had not forbidden me to meet you, we would already have been a formidable team.But nevermind, it's never too late, I will be in a team with the new one!""New one?"Finally, Cassie realized that his indications were nothing regarding her professional life, but everything was completely
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch - 56 : Black magic
The words and demands of this man, both were thought- provoking for Connor.He hadn't even got a chance to move on from the fact that Mariella Holmes was the one who had pocketed all the money he had paid up to take care of this matter… Till now, he had been thinking that he was the one who benefited during every interaction with them, mostly financial but also social. But it was the first time that he was being made to stand in front of the reality… or was it even the reality? Maybe this person was trying to fool him.Because as far as he knew Andrew, he knew that that dumbo was good for nothing! And Moira was someone who indeed pretended that she was very clever, but in reality, she was nowhere to be found even in the vicinity of cleverness.And at last, Cassie was just a pure soul who couldn't even imagine something bad happening to someone, let alone doing it… then how could their grandma be this cunning!? And while he was busy in his thoughts, he heard the stranger's voice onc
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch -57 : New job ?
After dumping Alex on the bed, Mark turned to walk towards his bedroom.But now, everything was a complete mess!Originally, he had wanted to hide everything from Cassie for at least one week, so that the first hearing would take place in the meantime, and all the convicts would get their sentence.And then, they could have started off their life together, on a good note. He had planned to reveal the news to her in a private moment, which would, of course, be followed by a grand party.But now, nothing like this could happen, because his dearest friend had to ruin everything in his excitement, and he didn't even know what he was supposed to do next… His brain felt foggy as the day's exhaustion compelled him to let his eyes fall shut and give in to the inviting warmth of the void.But it was only the troubled look in Cassie's eyes and the trace of conflict in her facial expressions that he had noticed a few minutes ago, that kept his mind focused and his legs moving in a steady rhythm
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 58 : Tip
Mark had spent the last five years concealing every bit of his original identity from being exposed in any manner, be it through someone else addressing him, or his words, dressing style, or even any minute gestures or body language.So, it was natural for the defensive instincts to kick in from time to time, especially in uncomfortable social situations where he was surrounded by people with a hostile attitude. And before he could have gotten some time to understand what was going on, even after the realization of his revealed identity had set in, he heard one of them speak up;"Look! It's Cassie's husband… or should we call you a delivery boy! Tell me, have you ever seen this much money at once, or tell me, do you know what real earned money feels like?"Saying this, he pulled out a bundle of notes and fanned it in front of Mark's eyes, adding;"I am willing to give you these, if you wipe the table over there… as a tip."Mark wanted to give a snapping reply to all of them in a very
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 59 : Breakfast
The moment Mark stepped out of the house, Cassie opened her eyes.She had awoken long ago, but had been lying in bed with her back to him and her eyes shut, all the while he showered and got ready for the day.It wasn't that she was happy to avoid him like this, but she still had a decision to make. And with what she had in mind, it was best for her to avoid confronting him this morning, not knowing whether or not she would be able to follow through with her plan after facing him. She climbed out of bed, and a few minutes later, she walked out of the bathroom in a fluffy bathrobe that had been placed inside, with her initials embroidered on it. A trail of steam followed her outside, and she paused in front of the mirror as a sudden thought struck her. Only after taking a shower did she fully realize where they were and got concerned about what she would wear, as her mind had been so cloudy that she hadn't even considered this point.Sighing reluctantly, she slid the door to the wa
