My Son-in-Law is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 1
"Mom, honey, I've got the water ready. Let me wash your feet."At eight o'clock in the evening, Selene Wilson and her mother, Carrie Cooper, had just returned from their family meeting. As usual, Scott Radley, who had finished cleaning the house, came over with two basins of warm water in hand.But tonight, something was different. Neither of them moved. Their faces were cold, distant. Carrie picked up her beloved poodle, cooing at it as if it were her own child. Then, without warning, she lashed out, sending one of the basins flying with a sharp kick. Water splashed across the floor."All you do is wash feet every day. What a useless man!" she snapped.In that moment, something broke inside Scott—something he had held back for a long, long time. He had endured their disdain in silence, the biting words, the endless humiliations. To them, he was nothing more than a low-paid clerk, a burden. Even the poodle in Carrie's arms held a higher status in this household."Here. Look this

The next morning, as promised, Scott and Selene arrived at the courthouse to finalize their divorce."Are you both sure you want a divorce?" The judge asked solemnly."Yes," Scott answered without hesitation."Me too," Selene added.With the heavy thud of the official seal, their marriage officially came to an end.Scott held the divorce certificate in his hand. He hadn't slept the entire night, and the exhaustion clung to him like a shadow. Even now, he found it hard to believe—his marriage with Selene had truly come to an end."Mom, look!" For Selene, however, the weight on her chest had lifted. She let out a sigh of relief, a genuine smile breaking across her face as she handed the divorce certificate to her mother, who stood beside her."Finally! You're rid of that useless bum. This is fantastic!" Carrie snatched the certificate, her voice rising with giddy excitement as she practically danced in place.Watching the mother and daughter celebrate so openly, Scott felt his he

"Selene, did you really divorce that useless guy?"It was two in the afternoon. In the grand office of the Wilson Group headquarters at Denblue Tower, the true matriarch of the Wilson family, Olivia Carhart, sat in a heavy rosewood chair. Her arched brow revealed a sharp curiosity."Yes, Grandma." Selene's face carried a distinct sense of relief, as if a weight had been lifted."Excellent. Well done," Olivia said, nodding slowly. "A man like that staying in our family would only bring us shame. I'm proud of you, Selene."In the past, no matter how well Selene managed the branch she was in charge of, Olivia never offered a word of praise. Her marriage to Scott was always a thorn in the old woman's side. But today, she seemed genuinely satisfied.Seeing this, both Selene and Carrie felt a surge of excitement. They both thought the same thing—divorcing that worthless Scott was the best decision they had ever made.Without missing a beat, Selene leaned forward slightly and said, "Gra

Selene had never been this humiliated in her entire life. She fled the scene as if chased by something unseen.The memory of that banquet at Peter Manor was still fresh—how Spencer, in front of countless distinguished guests, had taken the initiative to approach her and discuss a potential collaboration. The eagerness in his expression, the way he seemed so keen to work with her—it wasn't something that could be faked.She was on the verge of tears now, desperate to understand what had gone wrong. No matter how much she turned it over in her mind, she couldn't find an answer.If the project failed, her status within the family would plummet, and worse, she would face financial ruin. Bankruptcy wasn't just a distant threat—it was looming over her.Hadn't life after divorcing Scott promised to be better? Wasn't she supposed to be free and thriving by now? So how had things gone so terribly awry?She wandered the streets, lost in thought, aimlessly drifting until exhaustion pulled he

Early the next morning, Carrie and Selene arrived at the entrance of Nalheim Group's headquarters, where they met Calvin.Even though Calvin had promised to take care of everything the day before, Selene hadn't slept a wink all night. Part of her feared something might still go wrong; the other part, strangely, missed Scott. Without him in the house, an empty feeling lingered in her heart, as though something was missing.In the middle of the night, she even found herself missing him.She hated feeling this way. Scott was nothing but a loser. What right did he have to occupy her thoughts? And yet, the feeling clung to her like a shadow, leaving her mind foggy and unfocused as the new day began.Calvin, who had long harbored desires for Selene, mistook her distraction for worry about the deal. With a confident smile, as if everything were well within his grasp, he patted her shoulder gently. "Selene, don't worry," he said. "I'm the general manager of Nalheim Group. Once I get to the

Selene heard their conversation clearly. Carrie was initially worried that her kind-hearted daughter might intervene, but upon realizing Selene had no intention of getting involved, she felt relieved.With four security guards in tow, Calvin and the security guards entered the employee workroom and quickly spotted Scott. He was walking toward the CEO's office. Calvin's first thought was that Scott wanted to report to the CEO.He sneered. The CEO, Steve, was his uncle—why would he care about someone like Scott?With a gesture, the security guards moved to block Scott's path."Scott, are you deaf? I just told you—you're fired. Get the hell out of this company!" Calvin's voice rang out, sharp and full of hostility as he strode after him.But when he met Scott's gaze, his anger deepened. There was no fear or hesitation—just a cold, dismissive look, as if Scott were staring at a piece of garbage.And then, as if that weren't enough, Scott uttered a single word, "Idiot."Originally,
My Son-in-Law is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 7
Scott hadn't intended to make such a grand gesture. But since this company would soon be his, he needed to establish authority. If he didn't, managing things later might prove difficult. And, to be honest, he wanted Calvin to understand one thing clearly—when it came to firing people, only he had the power to do so.Without a word, Scott picked up the pen and signed his name on the equity transfer agreement in front of everyone.Steve, however, stood frozen in place."What are you waiting for?" Spencer snapped, irritation flickering across his face. "Sign the papers! Or have you decided you don't want the one hundred million after all?"Snapping out of his daze, Steve scrambled to pull a pen from his breast pocket. "Yes, Mr. Reed! I'll sign it right away!" His hand trembled slightly as he scrawled his signature across the page.He had always known Spencer's success wasn't solely his own doing. Behind him stood a figure with immense power, someone who could change a man's fate with

"Calvin, you—are you okay?" Selene stepped forward, her voice laced with concern."Don't—don't call me. Stay away from me!" Calvin's voice trembled as he watched Selene move closer. His eyes grew misty, and for a moment, it looked as though he might break down completely."Selene, from this day forward, let's not contact each other again. I've been fired. I'm not worthy of you."His gaze pleaded with her to understand. Without waiting for a response, he turned on his heel and walked away. He didn't have the courage to stay any longer, to let himself get entangled with her again."What? You've been fired?" Selene's voice quivered with disbelief. "Hey, wait! What about the product order we discussed?""I can't help you with that anymore. Don't come looking for me—you should talk to Scott!"Scott. The name hung heavy between them. Calvin couldn't understand it. With a husband like Scott, who had both power and wealth, Selene could have anything resolved with a single word. Why would

"Enough. I don't want to hear any more..."Lost in a daze, Selene stumbled back to her room.She stood by the bed, her gaze falling to an empty space on the floor. And then, suddenly, the tears came—unstoppable, raw.That empty space. That was where Scott used to sleep. For a whole year of marriage, she had taken the bed, while he had laid out his bedding on the floor.She had thought he was just another useless man, a parasite clinging to her family's wealth, devoid of love, devoid of sincerity.But now?Now, she knew.Her family and her so-called friends—none of them had ever cared for her the way Scott did. No one had shielded her like he had. He had supported her career in the shadows, dealt with every problem that came her way, and even after their divorce—after she had thrown him out—he had still avenged her when she had nearly been assaulted.Scott was the only one who had truly loved her.And she had cast him aside with her own hands.The more she thought about it, th

Seeing Olivia's furious expression, Henry finally felt relieved.He had assumed everything was unfolding according to his plan. Sitting comfortably at home, sipping his drink in satisfaction, he never expected his phone to ring with unsettling news. One of Matthew's subordinates called, frantic, telling him their boss had been beaten—by none other than Selene's ex-husband.At first, Henry refused to believe it. It sounded absurd. But when the subordinate sent him a photo of Scott standing over a battered Matthew, reality hit him like a slap in the face.Scott? That useless fool had shown up at the banquet?It made no sense.Confusion gnawed at him until another photo arrived—this time, Scott standing side by side with Spencer.Only then did Henry understand. Somehow, Scott had latched onto Spencer.To him, Scott was the lowest of the low, a man who had no business being in the same sentence as someone like Spencer. He didn't even consider the possibility that Scott's status coul

"Not a chance. Not a single cent less. If you can't pay up, call your family and have them bring the money!" The security guards showed no room for negotiation.Carrie was on the verge of tears. Regret gnawed at her insides, twisting her stomach into knots. Desperation left her with no choice but to call Selene.But Selene's phone was turned off. No matter how many times she dialed, there was no response. She lifted her head and scanned the surroundings, but there was no one willing to help her.Left with no other option, she reached into her pocket and pulled out a diamond ring—one she had hidden away for years. It had been her safety net, her secret stash. Back then, she had stolen and sold off all of Selene's biological mother's jewelry to acquire it. And now, in a cruel twist of fate, she had no choice but to hand it over to the security guard as collateral.Walking out of Nalheim Group, Carrie felt utterly hollow. She didn't even have the will to curse Scott anymore. But Scott

The security guards had long since lost their patience with Carrie. Without hesitation, they grabbed her by the arms and started pushing her toward the exit."What do you think you're doing? How dare you throw me out? Don't touch me, or I will have my son-in-law fire all of you!" Carrie shrieked, her face twisting in fury."Our boss made it clear—he has no wife, let alone a mother-in-law. Now get your butt out of here!" The receptionist, who had maintained impeccable service etiquette even in the face of rudeness before, finally snapped. It wasn't the insults that got to her, but the sheer arrogance—the way Carrie looked down her nose at everyone, as if she were some queen descending upon a court of lowly servants."That's impossible! I am Scott's mother-in-law! If you don't believe me, call him out here!" Carrie protested, growing desperate.The receptionist scoffed. "Oh, so now you're resorting to fraud? I'll give you one last chance—walk away now, and we'll let it slide. But kee

Meldovia Chamber of Commerce was an elite circle coveted by the wealthiest not just in Handorra but across the world. Their membership was a badge of honor, a testament to one's financial prowess and influence. But the barriers to entry were formidable—money alone wasn't enough. Without a powerful backing, even the richest could find themselves shut out.Spencer, despite his immense fortune, had never managed to break into its ranks. His foundation in Hazeld City was still unstable, leaving him without the leverage needed to join. That alone spoke volumes about how difficult it was to gain entry. But for those who did, the rewards were immeasurable. The association housed an extensive network of influential businessmen, fostering collaborations that could multiply one's wealth several times over within mere years. Some of the world's richest figures were among its members.After Scott left his family, his father had leveraged his personal influence to secure him a place in the as

Scott hadn't slept well last night. He had drowned himself in alcohol, and if it weren't for Amelia shaking him awake in the morning, he would have slept straight into the afternoon.Despite the passing of the night, the events of the previous day remained vivid in his mind. The moment he arrived at the company, he picked up the phone and called Spencer."Have you found Henry yet?" he asked."Sir, that guy somehow caught wind of our movements. The Wilson family's matriarch, Olivia, has hidden him away. I've tried multiple times to demand his whereabouts from her, but she insists she hasn't seen him. My men have turned her entire house upside down, but we still couldn't find him," Spencer reported.Olivia.Hearing the name, Scott's lips curled into a cold smile. His brows furrowed slightly but soon relaxed."You've done well," he said. "But from here on, leave this to me."This was something he needed to handle personally.Carrie looked down on him, but compared to her, Olivia w

One would assume Carrie would regret her past actions—deeply, bitterly, to the point of despair.But she had a skin so thick that shame never even grazed her. As soon as Selene returned to her room, Carrie's mind started spinning. If Scott was truly a wealthy tycoon, didn't that mean her former son-in-law was now swimming in money?If she could rekindle some kind of connection with him, just a little goodwill, even the scraps he tossed her way would be enough to keep living the luxurious life she was used to.Whether Selene would give her money or not—it no longer mattered.With this thought firmly in mind, she carefully dressed up early in the morning, preparing to visit Nalheim Group's headquarters.Just as she opened the door, Selene spotted her."Mom, where are you going?"Selene's voice was weak, her body barely holding up. She hadn't rested at all after yesterday's ordeal—her chest felt tight, and a cough rattled through her with every breath. Even standing took all the st

"Remember Spencer Reed? Do you know why he severed ties with us? It's because Spencer is Scott's follower. The reason he once tried to help me wasn't out of his own kindness—it was because Scott told him to. And do you know why I was able to achieve such miraculous success before? That, too, was because Scott was helping me from behind the scenes."Do you know why Lyndis became the general manager of the Nalheim Group? It's not because Scott is some lovesick fool living off her. It's because Scott bought the entire Nalheim Group! He owns it now—he's the real boss of Nalheim!"But none of that even matters compared to this. Do you know who the host of tonight's banquet is? Do you know who all these tycoons were bending over backwards to please? It's Scott! I saw it with my own eyes!"Selene clenched her teeth, venting all the frustration that had been welling up inside her. "I could have lived a life of luxury. I could have been a wealthy, pampered wife, never having to lift a finger
My Son-in-Law is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 22
Everything had become painfully clear to her. Just how ignorant she had been, how utterly blind to reality. And most of all, how deep Scott's love for her had truly been.Scott was wealthy and powerful. He could give her everything she had ever dreamed of. Yet she had thrown it all away and stupidly cast aside the life she had always longed for.Regret clawed at her. As she walked home, her vision blurred with tears, her breath hitching with every sob. She had been crying all the way home, and by now, her eyes were swollen beyond recognition. But no matter how much she wiped at her tears, the moment Scott's face surfaced in her mind, they would spill over again."Sweetheart, how did your meeting with Mr. Beckett go? Are you signing the contract tomorrow?"Dragging her exhausted body through the doorway, Selene barely had time to process before Carrie approached her, anticipation written all over her face.At that instant, a realization struck Selene like a bolt of lightning—Carr
