Since the day he came to the Vonne mansion, Resh had only been mocked and scorned by the family of the grand patriarch who had adopted him. He grew up to be a trustworthy, diligent and brilliant young man, in-charge of the family stables. The grand patriarch, knowing how deceptive and ill-mannered his second wife and her family is, decides to let Resh marry his granddaughter,Patrice, the only child of his son from his deceased first wife. A portion of the old man’s fortune were given to them as well as a few shares in his company just before he died. It angered the second wife and her family and they tried to make every day miserable for the young couple. And that's how the story was going until reality sets in. Payback time came, and The Wheel of Fortune is now changed in favor of the good for nothing son-in-law who was writing the Story of his Life.

Chapter 1 The Yacht Party

Dazzling chandelier lights will blind one's eyes as you step into the carpeted deck of the five hundred-foot mega yacht. The sweet scent of the pink stargazers and white roses drifts to your nostrils as they fill the railings and take the centerpiece of cocktail tables that dot the vast area.Tall men dressed in black pants and white long sleeved shirts accentuated by a bow tie darts through the crowd bringing glasses of wine or hors de oeuvres. Every now and then, a guest stops them to get some drinks or food, or makes a request for something.One word for the party preparation - Lavish! It was the sixty fifth birthday for the matriarchal head of one of the prestigious families of Hamstead County. They may not be as rich as they were before and precisely they tried to throw off a grand party to invite prospected partners to revive their business.A few meters from the deck is a hall decorated with imported orchids and huge rainforest plants. Lace curtains...

Chapter 2 Meet the Vonnes
Someone's POV Seated at the center of the long table in front was the grand matriarch, Lady Henda. Although celebrating her 65th birthday today, she looks a decade younger still. Thanks to her vanity, she had spent countless hours at 5th Street Salon&Spa and millions of dollars on botox and whatever new beauty technology there was to try. To her right is her first born son, Richmond Vonne, my father's half brother.  Although he is younger by two years, he had the advantage in built and height and bullied my dad ever since they were young. Next to him is another bully, his wife, Leila Vonne. She too is a regular customer at 5th Street Salon&Spa, always enjoying free treatment when she goes with grandma by sweet-talking to her in-law every time. She had been divorced twice before getting married to Richmond but had no children in her previous marriage.Beside the couple are the fraternal twins, Micah and Micco. Supposedly they are

Chapter 3 The Dinner
Patrice's POVThe Vonne family was seated in front of everyone else. The guests were introduced as they entered the dining hall and took their seats among the round tables. Lady Henda had a plastered smile on her face and gently tilted her head with a bow as every guest was introduced.Last to come in was the guest of honor, a man with streaks of grey hair but who stood with propriety despite holding a cane. He was the head of the Zeller, a multi-company empire located at an off-shore island twice as big as Hamstead county. Recently, they have announced their interest to expand business in Hamstead County by putting up a twenty-story mall, the tallest building to ever graze the county's skies yet. Everyone seems eager to try to get a contract with them, including the Vonne Family.Lady Henda stood up and clapped her hands as Mister Zeller walked down the aisle with his male assistant. Everyone else stood up as well."Thank you Mister Isaac Zeller for grac

Chapter 4 The Gift
Resh's POVI just came back from changing my shirt when it was announced that everyone should proceed to the adjacent part of the yacht for fireworks display and gift giving.  As usual,we'd be last to get our ass out of the room so I sat first next to my wife, Patrice. I noticed her sweet smile as I took my seat. She was so pretty in her dark blue gown and I was quite ashamed to accompany her wearing one of those old shirts of Mister Mikael Vonne.  I had no choice though. I'm not interested in parties like this but to show gratitude to the old man's help for putting a roof over my head and food to fill my tummy, here I am to fullfill one of his "deathbed wish", to present a valuable gift to his second wife, the lost ruby ring that once contained the poison given to him.A month before he died, one of the servants found the ring half buried in the garden. It was Lady Henda's favorite ring but she lost it a few days prior to the day it was found by the servant.

Chapter 5 Disaster at Sea
Resh's POVIt had always been this way. My wife would be walking ahead of me every time we are in public. I presume that she may feel ashamed of me. Since our marriage two years ago, we have not even held each other's hands. We have never looked each other in the eye, not even on our wedding day. Perhaps, she is just waiting for a chance to divorce me after her fate is determined regarding the CEO position in the Vonne textile corporation.We had just stepped into the platform when the lights went out and a loud booming sound was heard. A shower of lights flooded the dark sky. Everyone's head was turned towards the sky as myriads of colors burst all over. But my eyes were fixated on the woman before me. Her porcelain skin shone bright, as bright as her gleeful smile. Patrice looked so cute as her lips rounds up to express a silent WOW with each burst of the fireworks in the sky. Perhaps it won't be wrong to hope that one day  I can hold her hand as we watch firewo

Chapter 6 Critical Situation
Chapter 6 Critical SituationPatrice's POVA second splash was heard after my good for nothing husband fell into the water. Everybody headed towards the railings and stared at the water below. The ripples had died down so it can be presumed they have gone deep down into the water.I was suddenly gripped with fear. Why was he so stubborn not to show our gift for Lady Henda? The crowd lost interest waiting for the two of them to come back up to the surface but the crew of the yacht had prepared a rope ladder and were using spotlights to flood the area with light.“Patrice, let’s go. Your good for nothing husband might be good as dead down there.” Dad said with an I-Don’t-Care tone of voice.“Huh! He really brings shame to us! Now we don’t even have a gift to present and he steals the show by jumping into the water,” a dismayed expression on my stepmom’s face.Mister Isaac Zeller approached near t

Chapter 7 Bad Memories
Chapter 7 Bad MemoriesResh’s POV… Ten years ago …Ahhhh. It’s so hard to hold on to the piece of log. I’ve been drifting endlessly for I don’t know how long. The water is so cold and everything is pitch black now that the flames from the burning boat had sank to the waters together with everything and everyone else.Waves splashed against me. It’s so hard to stay alive but I must live. I want to find out who ever tried to kill my father. Just this morning, I was so eager as I pack my things for our weekend trip.“Have you got everything ready dear?” Mama asked me as I went down the stairs carrying my bag. She was preparing our food baskets together with two housemaids.“Yes, Mother Earth,” I said grinning.“What about your new fishing rods?” It was Papa also carrying some luggage and passing by the kitchen to stuff his mouth with some toasted bread and e

Chapter 8 - Thalassophobia
Chapter 8 ThalassophobiaResh’s POV...10 years ago.. continued...My throat feels dry already. It was useless screaming. In a few minutes the last flame had died down and everything is cast into darkness. The waves were getting fiercer every minute. I am starting to feel cold. Very cold. Then a wave covers my head. I tried to swim to the surface and lucky enough I found a log to hold on to. Coff.Coff. I drank a mouthful of sea water. I think my lungs is full of sea water already. I tried to stay afloat. It doesn’t matter which way I go. What matters is I survive and avenge my father’s death. Who has my father offended? He was so secretive with his work I have never heard him talk about it at home. How grave a fault did he commit that they would want him dead? To make matters worse, it started to rain. At first, it was just few fine droplets. Suddenly, there was heavy downpour. It was pretty strange be

Chapter 9 Rescued
Patrice's POVCoff. Coff. Water sprouted out from his mouth. Finally,Resh was breathing. However, he had not open his eyes still.  Then he started shivering."He's having a convulsion!  Quick get me some warm blankets!" The assistant of Mister Isaac Zeller gave instruction to one of the crew who immediately left."Pete, I'm glad you are back! Please call Boss and request for a chopper. This guy needs urgent medical assistance." The assistant commanded a tall guy who earlier assisted Mister Isaac Zeller. He must be the driver who came back for the assistant."Noted, Lou!" Then he was on the phone.The crew came back with some warm blankets. Lou, that seem to be the assistant's name, took off the wet clothes and shoes from Resh leaving only his underwear and wrapped him up in the warm blanket."Fever is starting. Get me some wash cloth, please!" A member of the crew left to comply to Lou's request.Lou looked around and asked,

Chapter 10 In the Stables
Patrice’s POVI gave the direction to our home to Pete. It wasn’t hard to find because we occupy one big compound in Hamstead County. Lady Henda and her children occupied the mansion. My family and I used to live there when Grandpa was alive. However, after his death, his second wife had become rude so Dad decided to live in one of the smaller houses but still inside the compound.My husband Resh lives in the stables. He had lived there for the past ten years since he was adopted by Grandpa. Even after we got married, he chose to live there. My Dad had warned him never to set foot in our home as he isn’t welcomed there nor would he allow me to live in the stables with him. So my marriage really was just written in papers. My father had told me to agree to my Grandpa’s request so that he can be written in the old man’s will. There was always an option to divorce later on.“Uhmm, I guess we are here, Madam,” Pete disrupted
