A SON IN LAW TURNS BILLIONAIRE AFTER DIVORCE
In his past life, Leonard Buck was the ultimate fool. For nine grueling years, he endured relentless abuse as a live-in son-in-law to the arrogant Miller family. He cooked, cleaned, surrendered every dollar he earned, and lovingly raised a boy he believed was his own—only to be cold-heartedly betrayed during a frozen global apocalypse. Left to freeze to death by his unfaithful wife, Susan, and her lover, Jonathan, Leonard died with his heart full of bitter regret.
Now, reborn ninety-two days before the apocalyptic "Great Freeze" strikes, Leonard awakens with a mysterious dimensional ring and a lethal resolve to take total control of his destiny. He wastes no time breaking free from his toxic past. Striking with calculated speed, he secures a secret $500 million lottery jackpot entirely as a single man, instantly leaving the astonished Millers with nothing.
While the shameless Millers attempt to sue him for marital assets and reclaim their "free laborer," Leonard plays a dangerous game of psychological warfare. He secures a $12 million luxury estate directly across the street from them, hires elite military contractors to fortify it into an impenetrable underground survival shelter, and sets his legal team on a path to thoroughly destroy their public reputation.
With millions flowing through the stock market to fund his massive survival preparations, Leonard races against a ticking clock to stock his dimensional space with endless supplies of food, fuel, weapons, and medical gear. As the world blithely counts down to total civilizational collapse, the unsuspecting Millers believe they are fighting for a cash payout. They have no idea that the man they once treated like trash is building a fortress—and preparing a cold, merciless front-row seat to their ultimate downfall.

Chapter: Chapter 10The looks aimed at the Millers changed instantly. Whatever faint sympathy they had enjoyed moments ago vanished in a heartbeat, replaced by raw, open disgust.Michael and Magret stood frozen under the heavy, silent contempt of the entire neighborhood.“No!” Magret finally snapped out of her shock, her voice cracking as she shrieked. “That’s bullshit! Complete bullshit! Susan would never do something like that!”Leonard gave her a cold, terrifying smile.“Really?” He calmly pulled his phone out of his jacket pocket. “Then how about I show everyone the videos right now?”Truthfully, while Leonard had concrete proof of the affair and Mark’s official DNA report, the "videos" were mostly a bluff.But the Millers had no way of knowing that. And judging by the utter panic washing over their faces, none of them were willing to call it. If Leonard actually started playing explicit footage in front of the entire neighborhood, the Miller family would never be able to show their faces in this cit

Chapter: Chapter 9At the mention of twelve million dollars in cold hard cash, Michael, Joseph, and Magret suddenly found a remarkable burst of energy and shot straight out the front door, leaving Susan straggling behind.Michael and Joseph made it across the street to the estate first, only to find a large crowd of neighbors already gathered outside.The massive property sat behind an elegant, tall wrought-iron fence, with a pristine landscaped front yard separating the quiet street from the main house. Since no one could get inside through the locked electronic gates, curious neighbors had clustered along the iron bars, craning their necks for a better look at the luxury villa.“Michael!” someone in the crowd spotted him immediately and yelled out.Then came the loud, envious congratulations from every direction.“Michael, your family really made it big this time!”“You lucky bastard! Where on earth did Susan find a husband like that?”“Seriously, Michael, you never told any of us Leonard was this loa

Chapter: Chapter 8“What do you mean that bastard divorced you?!”Michael Miller’s face turned an ugly, mottled purple as he stared at the official divorce certificate held in his trembling hands. He glared at the red stamp on the paper as if staring at it long enough might somehow make the crisp ink vanish into thin air.In this house, Leonard had been nothing more than an obedient, quiet dog. He cooked every meal, drove them wherever they wanted to go, fixed whatever broke, and meekly handed over practically every single cent he earned without a word of protest.Yet somehow, that spineless mutt had bitten back and run off?!Michael simply could not accept it. He couldn't digest it.“Where is that son of a bitch?!” Joseph shouted, leaping up from the leather couch with his fists balled tight. “Where is he hiding?! I’m gonna go find him and beat the shit out of him!”Little Mark, sitting on the rug surrounded by his toys, immediately piped up with an eager, cruel grin. “Where’s Daddy? I wanna hit Daddy

Chapter: Chapter 7He woke before sunrise, showered, changed into fresh clothes, and headed straight for the finest restaurant he could find.Sitting by a sunlit window, Leonard ordered without so much as glancing at the prices. Prime steak, fresh seafood, delicate pastries, and the restaurant’s most expensive single-origin coffee were laid out before him.By the time he set down his fork, a deep, comforting warmth had spread through his entire body.So this is what it feels like, he thought, letting out a quiet, relaxed breath.Spending money on himself without an ounce of guilt felt... so damn good.After breakfast, he called a car and headed straight to the state lottery center.The moment the security guards and senior staff learned why he was there, their entire attitude changed instantly. Smiles replaced stiff formality, and a senior executive personally escorted him into an executive private reception room. His physical ticket and identity were verified through several meticulous rounds of securi

Chapter: Chapter 6Susan hung up the phone with a derisive, bitter click of her tongue.She tossed her device onto the bed and sneered. Marrying Leonard had never been about love—it was nothing more than a masterstroke of convenience. Nine years ago, it had been a hasty shield to avoid the dark scandal of an unmarried pregnancy, keeping her real lover’s reputation completely pristine.Better yet, Leonard had been criminally easy to manipulate. He was essentially a live-in servant who cooked, cleaned, took care of the kid, and handed over nearly every single dollar he earned without asking a single question. Now that Mark was eight years old, the threat of scandal had long evaporated. It was just a minor shame to lose such a reliable, free laborer.The next morning, the sun broke over the county courthouse. Susan arrived right on time and found Leonard already standing outside near the entrance, his hands tucked inside his coat pockets.She strutted up to him, crossing her arms and attempting to reign hi

Chapter: Chapter 5The private DNA testing clinic on Millfield Road offered expedited, same-day processing for an exorbitant premium fee. Leonard didn't even blink as he swiped his card and paid it without hesitation.He sat in his car in the parking lot, carefully swabbing the inside of his own cheek, sealed the sample into the tube, and handed it directly to the technician.After that, there was nothing left to do but wait.He spent the entire rest of the afternoon sitting in the clinic’s quiet waiting area, holding a small paper cup of cold water, left alone with his thoughts. Every minute felt like an eternity, but his heart remained eerily still.At exactly seven o'clock in the evening, the phone vibrated heavy in his pocket.BZZZ.A new email had arrived. Attachment: Expedited_Genetics_Report_Ref8821.pdf.Leonard’s fingers didn't tremble as he tapped the file open. The report was only a few pages long, filled with complex medical charts and allele matching tables. He skipped past the technical jar
