THE RICHEST MAN SON-IN-LAW

NOTHING IS FREE

"What? What kind of requirement is this, Michael?"

Alexander was very surprised by the requirement that Michael proposed to him.

Yes, Michael requested a condition to help Alexander, by asking for half of the shares in his company.

"Nothing is free in this world, Alexander. If you want me to help you, then agree to my request. I propose this condition because I can ensure that I can save your company quickly."

Alexander looked at Aldebaran, as if seeking advice from his father-in-law. Because, to be honest, he objected to having to give half of his company's shares to Michael.

Aldebaran walked towards Alexander and whispered something in his ear.

"Just give Michael what he wants now, because you have no other choice but to agree, Alex. Later, we can make a secret plan so that your shares are not far from his hands."

Upon hearing advice from his father-in-law, Alexander nodded his head in response. Yeah, he was really unwilling to give his shares to Michael, but he had to follow Michael's will first to solve the problem.

"Okay, Michael. I agree to your suggestion. Now, tell me, when will this problem be resolved?"

"Now, go to the police and give a statement to them. While you are at the police station, I will take care of your company. I assure you that your problem will be resolved quickly if you obey my words, Alexander."

Michael convinced Alexander about his help. His facial expression was full of confidence when he said that sentence.

Alexander sighed slowly, then nodded his head.

"Okay, I will follow your words and surrender to the police now."

"Yes, Alexander. It would be better if you obey all my words."

The next day....

"Alexander has agreed to the terms I wanted, now he is at the police station and may stay there until the case is resolved."

Michael is now at Gracia's house. And now he is talking to his grandmother.

"So now we just have to solve Alexander's company problem, then take care of the condition you proposed to his company, Rafael."

Gracia talked about the next plan that she and Michael had to do.

However, Michael suddenly shook his head. With his eyes that looked so flat and deep.

"What's wrong, Rafael? Do you have another plan now?"

"Yes, Grandma. I have another plan."

Michael looked into Gracia's eyes, then smiled.

"What's your plan? Tell me," Gracia asked.

"Grandma, I want to slow down the time. I don't want to help Alexander too soon. Let him stay in jail for some time."

Michael told his new plan to Gracia, which of course surprised her.

"Why do you want to do that? Do you have a reason?" she asked.

"Yeah. I want to see his gloomy face in prison. He always belittled and insulted me and Adelle. So, let him enjoy his time in jail and reflect on all the bad things he has done to me."

There is a personal reason why Michael changed his plan. He wants to see another regret in Alexander's face. Because he didn't feel satisfied when he saw Alexander kneeling in front of him yesterday.

"I know Alexander and Aldebaran have another plan after this problem is resolved. And I don't want their plan to go smoothly. I want to destroy them one by one, Grandma, as my revenge."

Gracia understood what Michael was thinking and clearly supported whatever her beloved grandson wanted.

"Okay, do whatever you want, Michael. I will always support you. Let me know if you need any help."

"Sure, thank you very much, Grandma."

Meanwhile, Aldebaran is currently visiting Alexander in prison.

"Dad, what about this? Has Michael taken any action for me?"

Alexander looked panicked as Aldebaran met him at the police station.

Upon hearing the question, Aldebaran shook his head in response. In reality, Michael hadn't taken any action yet, as agreed upon with Alexander yesterday.

"No, he hasn't taken any action yet. But from the information I got from Adelle, Michael is meeting with Gracia now."

Alexander became even more frustrated after hearing Aldebaran's answer. He had only been in jail for one day, but he already felt stressed and wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.

"I think Michael deliberately did all of this to destroy me, Dad."

Suddenly, Alexander thought of something bad about Michael.

"What do you mean, Alexander?"

However, Aldebaran didn't understand the meaning behind Alexander's words.

"Yeah, Dad. Aren't you suspicious about why Michael hid his identity from you and let us belittle him all this time? Maybe now he will take revenge on us by destroying me first, Dad."

Alexander connected his situation with his bad prejudice against Michael.

"That's not possible, Alexander. Yes, I am also suspicious of Michael's behavior and identity. But he is Gracia's grandson, and I am very sure that if Gracia is an honest person, so is Michael."

Aldebaran disagreed with Alexander's statement. For him, Gracia wouldn't support Michael's bad actions.

"Why are you so sure, Dad? Do you know a woman named Gracia?"

"Yes, I know Gracia very well, Alex. She was a close friend of my father when he was still alive. She's very kind, so she wouldn't do anything bad to my descendants.

Honestly, when I found out that Michael was Gracia's grandson, I felt regretful for treating him badly all this time."

Aldebaran expressed his opinion to Alexander and convinced his son-in-law that Michael and Gracia were not the reason for his company's downfall.

However, the conversation between Alexander and Aldebaran was interrupted when they heard Aldebaran's phone ringing.

"Your phone is ringing, Dad. Check who's calling you, maybe it's Michael."

Alexander asked Aldebaran to answer the call immediately, hoping to hear good news if it was from Michael.

"This call is from Kevin."

Aldebaran read the contact name on his phone screen, and his face showed a surprised expression.

"Wait, is this Kevin who was going to marry Adelle but didn't?"

Aldebaran nodded, then chose to answer the call from the man named Kevin immediately.

"Hello, Kevin. I'm glad you contacted me after all this time."

The middle-aged man tried to politely make small talk.

"Hello, Mr. Aldebaran. I'm Kevin. I hope you still remember me. There's something important I want to talk to you about, Mr. Aldebaran."

"Sure, Kevin. Just say it."

"I know your son-in-law, Alexander, is in big trouble right now. And I can help him and free him from all his problems right away."

After hearing the offer from Kevin, Aldebaran looked at Alexander with a meaningful gaze.

"But in return, I want Adelle to be my future wife again and divorce her current husband, Mr. Aldebaran."
