The Useless Son In Law

CHAPTER 2: He Was The Heir

Every time he met allen, Allen would think of ways to make things difficult for james, trying his best to belittle and humiliate him.

"hi, Allen." james composed himself and walked up to greet him.

"James." allen, in a decent suit, walked over. his voice filled with mockery and arrogance as he said, "if you are a man, go and beg your father-in-law. perhaps, ava's parents can help you with the medical fees.

"that's not necessary. as for the hospital expenses, i'm gonna fix it soon." james forced a smile

"alright. since you live a poor life, i'll do you a favor and pay it." after that allen took out a luxury brand wallet from his pocket, casually pulled out a card, and handed it to the nurse at the cashier desk

"i'll pay with my card.

unlike her attitude a few minutes ago, the nurse attended to the hospitalization procedures with a sweet smile

James couldn't help but allow himself a wry smile inwardly. he thought, "do i have to be despised just because i'm poor?

"let's go." Allen raised his head and looked upstairs. he said mockingly, "come with me. go upstairs and visit your wife. don't worry. uncle and aunt won't make things difficult for you with me around.

James could not be bothered to argue with this fellow. if allen lost his temper, he would talk nonsense and scold anyone around him like a mad dog

however, as soon as they arrived at the ward, james learned the cause of ava's injury

"Ava, i asked you to have dinner with mr jack, the manager of Cartier, to obtain the order of 150,000 dollars from him." allen who was standing by ava looked down at her and scolded her disdainfully

he just wanted to have a drink with you. but you hit his head with the bottle!

hearing that, james was dumbfounded, and soon he understood what had happened

the truth was that ava, his wife, was sexually harassed

he had met mr. parker from Cartier, and he knew that fat man was a leecher

"Allen, it was not ava's fault. after all, she's a woman..." amelia tried to defend her daughter, but she failed to do so

"Aunt Amelia, she was the one who requested to work at the company. if you think she can do whatever she wants just because she's a woman, "why don't you ask her to stop working and be a housewife. after that, allen glanced at James again, who was standing with his head lowered

"oh! i almost forgot that your son-in-law is a househusband. tsk tsk! if your daughter and son-in-law are both unemployed, they must have to live off you and uncle!

"Darrien! that's enough." ava raised her head with displeasure, her pale face darkened. 'i made the mistake, and i'll take responsibility for it.

"what? you'll take responsibility?" Allen sneered again. "how are gonna do it? Ava, there's something you need to know. mr. parker has sued you!

"what?" Amelia widened her eyes in panic upon hearing that

"Allen, do not shoot off your mouth if you are unsure about it." joseph's face turned pale as he heard it

"Uncle Joseph, i'm not talking nonsense!" allen looked at the bailey family with his nose in the air. he said proudly, "grandpa said that Ava should be responsible for it since she caused this trouble.

"how come she's the one who should take responsibility?" Amelia was furious. Ava met Mr. Parker at dinner for the sake of the company! now, something like this happened and you guys just want to stay out of it. do you think my family means nothing to Jackson Bailey

"no matter what, Ava is Jackson's granddaughter. Jackson can't leave her in the dark.

"Aunt Amelia." allen raised his brows again, his face full of contempt and disdain. "please don't try to threaten me with grandpa. think about it. between Ava and the Bailey Group, which one will he choose?

"you..." amelia's face darkened in anger, but she lost her words

after he said what he said, allen opened the door and walked out. before he left, he did not forget to mock james again

"James, if you want to be a man, you'd better help your wife fix this." as he spoke Allen's eyes darkened. then, he said with a hint of malice, otherwise, she would have to be kicked out of the Bailey group.

Allen's smugness made it difficult for james to calm down. however, there was nothing he could do

expecting that her mother would say something even worse to james later, Ava deliberately asks james to buy something to eat downstairs so that he could avoid it

however, the moment James stepped out of the door, he heard the sound of a glass smashing to the ground

"Joseph, you useless! why did i marry a good for nothing like you? i was stupid! everyone thought i was lucky to become the daughter-in-law of the Bailey family, but who would know that i've been living a hard life

"you're all Jackson's sons, but Blake and Turner are the managers in the company, and they have a lot of shares. even your two sisters live in high-end apartments. but you can only stay in the old villa!

Joseph was a typical, meek husband. facing amelia's fury, he could only lower his head, not daring to make a sound

hearing that, james could not help but mock himself in his heart. "that's right. we useless men always end up like this.

after venting her anger on her husband, Amelia sat on the ground in a rage and threatened ava, "ava, you're still young. i can't bear to see you live your life in the wrong way. promise me. divorce james tomorrow!I""."?..."..""?".."""..!.."..."".".."" Promise me. Divorce James tomorrow!"
