Chapter 11: deals with the in-laws He moved closer nevertheless. “I will take a cab,” he told him. Alfred
nodded in understanding. “I will see you soon right?” “Oh yes,” Grey smiled. “I lost my job and I need
another. So, I’m thinking your company can actually serve well by hiding who I am.” ” Great,” Alfred
opined. ” You can come to P.K corporation tomorrow. I will definitely find a suitable position for you.” ”
Thanks, I will leave then,” he announced again. ” Wait then,” he opened his car and retrieved a wine
bottle. ” Here’s Diva Vodka and it’s worth one million dollars. I think you should give it to your in-laws
since you will be seeing them for the first time.” Grey took the wine bottle and handled it like an egg.
Then, he looked up at Alfred again. “Thank you so much.” Alfred flashed him a bright smile. “My
pleasure, Hercules.” He got a cab and left even before Alfred did. He suddenly developed sweaty
palms while thinking about his in-laws. The car pulled up in front of the big house and Grey’s heart
skipped a beat. He finally summoned the courage to walk in after a few minutes of taking the breathing
exercise. A couple was sitting close together on the sofa and Grey didn’t need anyone to tell him that
they were Avery’s parents. Actually, there was a striking resemblance between the three. If Grey had

he walked in. Grey gave them his best smile as he walked nearer. “Greetings, my respectful in-laws,”
he said politely. “I got this wine for you!” He stretched out the vodka. Benjamin stared up at Grey for a
moment before he took the wine from him. “Oh seriously?” Emma hissed and looked away. Benjamin
studied the wine. “Oh my, this is a very expensive wine. And very tasting as well,” he smiled. “Ha! What
kind of expensive wine could this rag afford? It’s either fake or just stolen from others.” Emma
shouted. Grey didn’t know how to explain, tell them it was a gift from Alfred, the richest guy in the city?
No one would buy that. ” I don’t really get what’s happening right here. Is he here to bribe us for raping
my daughter? Now a thief as well?” Emma boomed. Grey let out a sigh. ” I’m sorry ma’am but it wasn’t
a rape nor a theft.” “Oh, yes!” She snapped. “You intentionally slept with her so she could take you out
of your poverty state? Right? Or you deem yourself fit to be with a sexy and beautiful girl like
Avery?” Grey felt a stab of annoyance at her words. He wondered why no one was thinking through his
point of view. He slept with Avery, fine! But he couldn’t even remember how it happened. Would he
have done something like that if he knew? But he didn’t want to say anything. The last thing he would
ever do was get his in-law upset. “Oh, you can’t talk? Cat got your tongue?”Emma continued,
screaming the word as if she would wake the whole house. Grey kept shut and stared down at the
marble floor. He didn’t know how he was supposed to reply. The woman looked as though she wouldn’t
even believe any explanation he made. “You little son of a bitch! You this pauper!” She stressed out,
anger vivid in her eyes. Benjamin glanced at Grey again, amazed that he was keeping it cool while
Emma was abusing him. So, he tapped Emma slightly. “I think you should stop. It’s ok.” Emma stopped
talking and looked away but there was still evidence of annoyance in her eyes. If only she could have
her ways, she might abuse Grey till the next morning. Benjamin looked up at Grey.” sit, young man,” he
offered and Grey complied, with a grateful heart. Emma was still fuming beside Benjamin. “So, we’ve
already discovered what had happened. Though Avery still can’t tell what had really happened. And I
must say it was a great misunderstanding, though the fact that you and Avery are getting married can’t
be changed.” Grey nodded. Getting married was the best of his life anyways. If it wasn’t for Avery, he
wouldn’t have met Alfred. That aside, proving to Avery’s family that he wasn’t a nobody was a way to
prove to everyone that he was somebody. If he walked away at this point, he would forever be ridiculed
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmby the Robinson. “So, what do you do for a living? And where do you work?” Benjamin asked
softly. Grey looked up at him. ” I was actually fired today,” he forced the words out of his mouth even
though they were very difficult. It was awkward anyways. Benjamin nodded briefly. “But you should find
a nice job real soon or you won’t be qualified to marry my daughter,” he stated. Grey nodded his head.
” Agreed sir,” he said with a smile on his face. Benjamin nodded as well. ” Then, you are free to
leave.” Grey stood up and took a short bow before he turned to walk away. ” See this dead meat!”
Emma struck suddenly as if she had been polishing her armor for another attack. “Look at how
confident he is. How can a pauper be so confident? What the heck is this guy feeding you with,
Benjamin? Will it be possible for him to get a nice job?” She asked amazingly. Her voice actually pulled
Grey to a sudden stop. He turned around to look at her. “I am confident,” he reassured with a nice smile
and a boldness that amazed Benjamin. “Will you give me a chance to prove I am qualified to marry
Avery if I can get a nice job?” Benjamin laughed out loud. ” He has some courage and I love that!” He
complimented. “He’s bluffing!” Emma hinted. “Well, you asked for it. Prove to us that you weren’t a
pauper that wanted some solace.” Grey’s smile widened. He was Hercules after all
