The Disabled Son-in-law Is Secretly The Richest Lord

5

...At this point, Stanley feels like his bones are about to be broken, so he cries out for his in-laws and his wife to stop hitting him.

"Please, I am just a cripple. How can a disabled man like me try to destroy this powerful family?!" He wails.

"I see what's going on here!" Andrew exclaims. "He overheard how we want to get him divorced from Emerald, so that she can get married to the young Lord Snow, but he wants to sabotage it!"

Stanley's jaw drops to the ground. This, in fact, is the first time that he is hearing that his wife wants to leave him for a rich anonymous man.

His eyes swell with tears, and he doesn't even attempt to hide his pain.

"Why do you want to divorce me, Emerald? For seven years, I have been nothing but good to you. You have kept so many boyfriends and broken our marriage vows, but I never ever complain!"

Emerald doesn't feel guilty, instead she snarls and hits him even harder.

"You call yourself a husband? You are nothing but a vegetable in a chair! You are not even half a man!"

"Yes, she is right, it's time you are kicked out of this family. We have not benefited from having you here!"

"All you do is sit on your weak legs, and eat our food!"

"And steal from us!"

The beating gets even harder and Mr Hudson immediately runs up the stairs to grab the already drafted divorce papers.

He smacks Stanley very hard before forcing the papers into his hands. "Sign this quickly! Emerald needs to be free from you, so that she can go be married to the young Lord Snow!"

But Stanley won't do this one thing that they have demanded from him.

The truth is that Stanley has unfortunately fallen very deeply in love with Emerald over the seven years that they have been married.

Sadly for him, this is one sided love, and there is no way that Emerald would fall for a poor cripple like him.

Even though he knows this very well he turns to her with tears in her eyes.

"Please, Emerald, you know I love you. Don't divorce me! I will be a better husband! I will visit more doctors to help with my legs, I will get better for you."

But Emerald laughs with mockery and throws her head back. "Look at this fool!Keep building castles in the air! You are a cripple forever, and no one will be able to help you!"

"Emerald, I swear, I can be a better husband!"

"You can be a better husband than the anonymous Lord Snow?! Ha! Only in your wildest dream!"

It's at that moment that the last string of kindness snaps inside of him, and Stanley's heart turns cold as ice.

He has begged, but they refused to listen to him. Now, he is done begging.

He wipes the tears from his eyes and calmly takes the pen and the papers.

Damn Emerald and her family. He has tried for seven years to be nothing but the best son-in-law to them, but they have only rewarded him by spitting in his face.

He will never forget how they have treated him...

The Hudson family watches in awe, they can't contain their joy as they watch their bum of a son-in-law severe the marriage.

"He has finally done it! Now our Emerald is free to marry Lord Snow!"

"This is the best day of our lives!"

Stanley stays in the corner, watching them dance around and around.

Finally, they notice him, the trash in the room, and they immediately push him and his wheelchair out of the gates.

"Never you return, Stanley Adkins! Our family has gotten rid of the useless son-in-law after seven years!!"

They won't even allow him to take his little belongings, but he tries not to dwell on that too much.

The sun is scorching hot, but is it worse than the humiliation that he has just faced?

He keeps wheeling himself down the hot road, until he notice an expensive jeep parked by the side.

John Plummer is alone this time around, and he bows deeply to Stanley, his eyes weak with emotions.

"Young master, why didn't you tell me that you are married to Hudson's daughter?"

"WAS married," he corrects the man. "I am single from today,"

John looks down with a sigh. "I'm sorry, sir. Emerald is a very beautiful woman, why didn't you just tell her the truth about your identity? She would have surely treated you differently."

Stanley chuckles painfully, "She has shown me her true colours, John. I am moving on from that. Now, I know what to do..."

John Plummer brings out the signet again and gives it to Stanley, who slips it on his pinky.

It fits him so well, and it's all fate.

"Take me back to the Mansion," Stanley orders.

John Plummer's face breaks with excitement.

"Ar-are you serious, young master? You have finally agreed to come home?!"

Take me to my father's mansion, John, and call me the best Doctors to fix my memory! I want to remember every single person who has ever wronged me!”
