Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch -84 : Settling accounts
If it would have been some other day, and the tides of time would have been in favor of Mariella Holmes, she would surely have shown this girl what she was capable of.But today… today, neither her time nor her stars were in a good position, dragging her down from the throne she was the only righteous owner of.Hence, after going through all the options in her mind, she replied with her best weapon: self-pity."What can I say for your generous offer, apart from that my old bones are not suitable for any kind of work -""Tch! Tch! Oh yeah, how can I forget, your bones are only capable of hiding the evidence! Right!"Violet spoke again, looking directly in Mariella's eyes."You… you bi- Brat! Why are you teasing an old lady like me? I am Cassie's grandmother, and if you are her friend then in a way I am your grandma as well!"Mariella spoke, biting back her anger, and carefully choosing the word she was about to say, otherwise all her plans would have gone in vain within no time at all.

Cassie turned her head to look in the direction where the voice had come from, already knowing who it belonged to.The words were clear and loud in her mind."Is it too late to apologize for my mistake…? Sister in law?"But she was still trying to figure out if she might have misheard the words, because no matter that things were seemingly coming back on the track of getting better….She was still not sure that everything was ever going to become alright, just like it had been before.Not only were her days still hazy, but the sun that was supposed to rise after the jury's decision… she was still unable to catch a glimpse of it.And because of that, she was still unsure about her future, because the hope that had risen after Mark had saved her from her grandma's rage seemed to be vanishing since the moment she talked to the attorney.Because she was not sure how she would clear up the misunderstanding of why she was scouting a new lawyer, because even if she were to say the truth, wou
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch -86 : Burden
Cassie was once again lost in her thoughts, when Alex began to speak, his eyes fixed on his fiddling hands. "I know that sometimes Violet is a lot, it's because she is the pampered, only daughter of both the households.And trust me, there are few times when no one can handle her, apart from Marcus.Hence, I accept that this time, I was the one at fault as Marcus was already in shock, and I didn't stop her from the grave mistake she was making, while being carried away by her emotions.But Sister- in- law, I… I am really here to request you to forgive me this time; and trust me I will never repeat this blunder of mine. I will never disappoint you.""Alex, I am not mad at you… I am neither angry, nor disappointed in you. It's just that I am so disappointed in myself.Although I haven't opted for the abortion in the end, but I had considered it as an option, thinking that Mark doesn't love me and I was just a pawn for him in the game of revenge.""Cassie! Don't think this way, avenging
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch -87 : Spark
Cassie was indeed left speechless; no matter how hard she was trying to wipe the traces of fear off her face… But the shadow of the insecurity that had been raised after the blunder she had created, was never ready to leave her in the first place.She immediately tried to divert the conversation in another direction, as she had always believed in the theory which advocated in favor of leaving the things we are not sure about, as they are. So ignoring the question, she hurriedly spoke up, without taking a pause between her own words. "Grandma, do you want to eat something? You might be hungry after the trail, aren't you?Please take a shower and change, and come to the dining area. Till then, I will ask the staff to prepare something for you… a- a few dishes you like-""Cassie my child, come here kid, sit with your grandma."Mariella spoke, making her voice sweeter than sugar, while her heart was aware of the fact that whatever she was going to say, every word of it would consist o
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 88 : Misunderstanding
After the visitor left, Cassie wanted to visit her grandmother and see if she was doing well.But her words were just making her lose her confidence further, and she really didn't want any misunderstandings to occupy the space between her and Mark, all over again.Thinking this, she decided to stay away from her, just for this evening. Because after this dinner, she knew she would at least have an answer about what was going to be the fate of her life.And with this determination, she went into her shower. She needed to get ready soon, as Mark would be waiting for her.The cream- colored walls of her new bedroom provided a serene backdrop for the rich, dark wood of the antique vanity that stood near the window. As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow across the room, Cassie stood before her mirror, the amber light reflecting in her hazel eyes.But her eyes, usually vibrant, now held a hint of vulnerability. In recent days, the ritual of getting ready became
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 89 : No one
Mark was waiting while sitting in his place, thinking that Cassie would be arriving at the given time only.Of course, she couldn't be as eager as him, to have rushed to the restaurant almost an hour earlier, just because he didn't want to get late for the most important meeting of his life!He turned away from the breathtaking view of the mountainside, afforded by the large floor to ceiling window beside his seat, when he heard the staff welcoming someone in.How was it possible for the restaurant to attend to any other guests, when he had booked the entire restaurant for himself?The thought made him frown out of displeasure, and caused him to stand up from his chair.He didn't want anything imperfect to take place today.But this was when he noticed Cassie entering the room, while thanking the staff members. She was wearing a beautiful crimson red dress that hugged her figure perfectly, and Mark almost felt his breath leaving him. The silky fabric shifted ever so slightly with ev

Mark knew what he was saying.He knew what he was doing.He knew what effect his presence had on Cassie.And moreover, he was completely familiar with how their close proximity had always been able to make her forget everything she was doing, thinking of, or planning to do.And he used to quite enjoy it, when he was completely sure that she loved him from the core of her heart. And now, when the slightest doubt had appeared in that belief… The same reactions shown on her accord made him let out a sigh of relief.The next moment, he noticed her eyes getting a little teary as her lips parted and closed twice.As if she was trying to say something but she wasn't able to.He forced himself to jump out from the thoughts he was going through in his mind, as he would have his entire night ahead of himself, to dive deep in those thoughts of pleasure But right now, Cassie was the most important entity for him.And also, while she was in his arms, some other thought bothering her was somethi
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch-91 : House rules
After Guolong left, Anthony suddenly became a little more cheerful… in fact, to such an extent where his behavior began to give chills to his staff.The same staff members, who had only seen their Master burning with the anger of a Demon King, or the wrath of a person who has no mercy for anyone or anything in this entire world, had to avert their gazes in shock and horror. That's why, the cheerfulness on his face was making them believe in all the superstitions they had ever heard, as they all were fearing the ominous silence that had started to spread in the house! Anthony also seemed to be aware of this silent environment of terror, but he was quite enjoying it.Seeing people in fear, pain and panic was his favorite pastime.And today, when he finally had all the three Aces in his hands… didn't he deserve to enjoy himself a little bit?Humming to himself, he sat on the couch and gestured to the butler to bring the bottle of scotch… after all, today called for a time of celebratio
