Rise of Betrayed Son-in-law

Evan lounged on the couch in his cozy living room, engrossed in his phone.The sound of his wife, Andrea, bustling around in the kitchen filled the air as she prepared their breakfast. Five years of marriage had brought Evan immense joy, especially with Andrea by his side. However, there was always a tinge of unease when it came to her parents, particularly her mother. Mrs. Sanchez had a reputation for being demanding, which often left Evan feeling a bit intimidated. She was descending the stairs, clad in a striking pencil skirt and a perfectly tailored jacket that accentuated her figure. Evan's heart skipped a beat, knowing exactly what was about to unfold. It had become a routine for Mrs. Sanchez to ask for money, claiming it was for various expenses. Evan, not wanting to upset his mother-in-law or create any tension within the family, had always obliged. "Good morning, mom," Evan greeted, rising from the couch. "I need some money to splurge at the mall today," she stated, h

As he lay in his hospital bed the next morning, thoughts of worry consumed Evan's mind. Just then, a glimmer of hope entered the room as Leo, Evan's long-time best friend, walked in. Evan's face lit up with surprise and joy. "Leo?"he uttered in disbelief. "Yes it's me, man. Long time no see," Leo responded, smiling. It had been six years since he had seen or spoken to Leo, too preoccupied with his own troubles to reach out. Leo's concern was evident in his voice as he asked, "I heard about your accident. Are you okay?" Evan nodded, unable to find the right words to express his emotions. Leo pulled up a chair and held Evan's hand in his own. Leo's gaze shifted towards the pile of bills resting on the bedside table, instantly grasping the weight of Evan's concerns. "Are these the bills? How much do you owe?" Evan hesitated, but Leo snatched the bill from his hand. Leo's expression fell, but he swiftly regained composure and reached for his wallet. "Allow me to take c

Moments later, she appeared, her eyes meeting his with a hint of guilt before quickly averting her gaze. "Where have you been?" he inquired calmly, his voice betraying none of the turmoil within. Caught off guard by his composure, Andrea‘s embarrassment suddenly became furious. "Somewhere with electric." she answered with an irony tone. Evan stunned. "What are you talking about?""They're right, I can't get anything from this marriage. I don't want to spend the rest of my life taking care of a poor and disabled useless man." Andread answered, "If you can leave me along, I might still accompany you for a while longer. But since you have to ask even when I'm not coming home, well, forget it."Her words hung heavily in the air, leaving Evan momentarily speechless, his body almost going numb with shock. "Are you kidding, Andrea?!" His voice carried a mix of desperation and disbelief. "Do I look like I'm kidding? "Her frustration was palpable, her emotions raw and unfiltered. Refu

“Thank you for your kindness, sweet heart. You're truly sweet," Andrea expressed with a smile. Evan overheard the conversation as he made his way back towards the cashier area where the two were standing. Leo held Andrea's hand and kissed it. "I would do anything for you, my love. I can buy you anything you want, unlike your poor ex-husband," Leo retorted. Evan felt a pang of annoyance at being underestimated by Leo. He was no longer the poor guy he once was. He had transformed into a different man and wouldn't allow anyone to belittle him again. "I thought you were going to run away. Where's your payment?" the cashier questioned skeptically. "Can't you see someone is calling me?" Evan responded coldly and firmly. Leo and Andrea were taken aback by Evan's voice behind them. Leo turned to face Evan, stunned to see him standing there. "Evan?" Leo asked in disbelief. "Oh! Nice to see you again," Evan smirked. "Especially you, my dear ex-wife," he added, looking at Andrea. Andre

Leo and Andrea arrived at Carter Mansion around 8:00 pm, where they were warmly welcomed by Andrea's mother."Good to see you both. have you eaten dinner?" Mrs.Sanchez asked. "Yes, mom. "Andrea responded."Good to know. anyway, I have something to share with you," Mrs. Sanchez said with a smile.Leo glanced at Andrea, expecting her to mention Evan's sudden appearance at the mall to her parents.But Andrea remained silent so he spoke. "I have news for you as well, mom" Leo announced.Mrs. Sanchez immediately became curious and asked Leo, "What is it?""You won't believe this, but we actually saw Evan at the mall," Leo revealed.Mrs. Sanchez was shocked, "What?!"Leo decided to twist the story a bit to boost his ego, "Yes, he's still struggling financially. Can you believe he tried to buy expensive clothes worth a million dollars?""He don't have any money to pay for it so the security had to drag him out,"he chuckled.Andrea couldn't understand why Leo was exaggerating the story, but s
