THE LEGEND SON-IN-LAW IS BACK

Chapter 3

 Eleanor's face was all smiles; she was enjoying what she was doing. How could a mere civilian cheat on her general?

She took it personally and upon herself to humiliate and cause misunderstanding to Diana and the overweight man standing beside her.

Dominic wasn't interested; he just wanted to leave and contemplate his life although there was a sly grin that appeared at his chin as Eleanor humilates Diana. But it left as quickly as it came. He looked at Eleanor, and for a moment, he didn't recognize her. He had never seen this side of her. So, he gently pushed her hand away, eager to get out of there.

Eleanor still held his hand, unwilling to let them further humiliate her general. She was prepared for them.

“Stand down, Captain,” Dominic ordered coldly. Eleanor's face immediately changed. She released his hand but stood beside him she didn’t expect him to reprimand her.

Frank watched closely. "Who could this beauty be, and why was she so clingy around this loser?" He immediately left Diana's waist where his hand had been. He was obviously consumed by jealousy.

He kind of forgot about Diana for a bit because this new girl grabbed all his attention. He couldn't believe how silly Dominic was being. This pretty lady was interested, and Dominic was saying no! Maybe she was from a rich family...

Anyway, if Dominic wanted to act like a fool, he thought he'd take advantage and win the girl for himself.

Since he's the rich guy, he moved closer to Eleanor, trying to chat her up. "I might not be her dad, but I could be something much more impor..."

“Get out,” Eleanor barked with fierce anger and coldness that shocked Frank.

Frank reluctantly retreated, surprised at how cold she seemed, as if she were some sort of military personnel. He suddenly felt really embarrassed.

He quickly stepped back, to Diana's side, who was visibly angry and shooting him irritated looks. She expected him to pick her up from the law firm and show off in front of everyone, especially Dominic, to prove she had better options now.

Instead of making him jealous, he was being an idiot and trying to flirt with another girl, almost like he had a mission to embarrass her further. She grabbed Frank's hand, and was about to leave when she abruptly stopped staring at Eleanor who was approaching her.

Eleanor stepped further toward Diana, clearly intimidating her with every move. “How shameless of you. You have no idea what you've missed just because of how gullible you are.”

Diana, attempting not to show she was intimidated, reacted, “How dare yo…” Eleanor cut her off with a swift and resounding slap that left Frank speechless.

No one, including Diana expected that slap; she staggered in humiliation. “That's for disrespecting the general commander of Victoria,” Diana winced in pain as she held her burning cheeks.

"So filthy, how dare you cheat on my general. Is that how you repay his love?" Eleanor voiced with disgust evident in her tone.

If Dominic wouldn't react, she wasn't going to fold her hands and witness someone disrespect their general. Not even a soldier in Victoria would tolerate this. She had lost her cool and was seething with anger.

She felt like taking Diana to a dungeon, where she would teach her the lesson of her life. Eleanor moved closer to Diana again, who was shaking in fear; it was evident that she was not done teaching her a lesson.

"Shaking in fear? Good. You deserve every bit of it for what you've done. I should drag you to a dungeon and teach you the lesson of your miserable life for disrespect."

She was prepare to give her the glimpse of what the Giant Hall soldiers of the Victoria had plan to do to her for disrespecting and cheating on the supreme commander.

“Eleanor!” Dominic called. She froze in her tracks. It was the first time he had called her by her name. She turned to him, her eyes begging him not to stop her from teaching Diana a lesson. 

"She doesn't deserve the effort. Save your strength." Dominic said to her casually, his expression indifferent. Eleanor stopped, but she still felt upset by Diana's insolence.

Diana was shocked to hear Domini insult her, although politely. She continues to hold her cheeks in disbelieve.

“This was meant to be yours,” Eleanor spat, pointing to the supercar she had arrived with earlier.

Diana stood there in doubt and disbelief. Everything was so confusing to her. How could it possibly be hers? She asked "How do you mean? How could it be mine? How?” 

She had many questions in her mind. Who was this lady, and where did she come from? She even called Dominic commander.

Eleanor turned to leave with Dominic who was already on his way after his last statement, but abruptly turned and face Diana again. She was’t satisfied with humiliating her.

Eleanor threw the car keys to Diana, who couldn't catch them; which made it fall to the ground. Diana fumbled to catch it, she hadn’t regain from the slap she received earlier. As Diana was about to pick up the keys, Eleanor stepped on them.

“This was indeed my gift to you. But now, you don't deserve it,” Eleanor stated, enjoying the humiliation. She swiftly picked up the keys and immediately activated the autopilot of the supercar, and immediately the car turned on. 

"Watch closely, darling. This is what happens when you disrespect the general." Eleanor exclaimed 

It roared towards Diana, who ran towards Frank in fear.

“Help, Frank!” she cried. She ran back to where Frank was and covered her face against Frank's body, who pushed her off him.

The car roared around Frank and Diana three times before colliding directly with a truck parked by the roadside. Eleanor smirked in satisfaction before stating to Diana, “You have no idea what you missed.”

The truck driver, angered, emerged from a restaurant nearby. Seeing what was done to his truck, he was about to rant when Eleanor walked up to him gallantly.

“Here,” she said as she handed over the keys of the supercar to him. "Here, take these keys. Consider it a gift." she brought out a platinum card."And for the damages, here's a platinum card with ten million dollars. Consider it your lucky day."

The truck driver was too surprised to utter a word. His life had just turned around in a matter of minutes. 

The truck driver stammers "Ten.. million... dollars? Are you serious?"

Eleanor gave him the card, turning to leave, she winked at Dominic. She was satisfied with the way she humiliated the bitch.
