SON-IN-LAW GETS AN UPGRADE - Season 5 Episode 82

What? The Grant family actually gave him that car?

Everyone was shocked once more. Their gaze shifted from Alex to Maggie, then back to Alex again. The surprise in their hearts had maxed out.

That was especially true for Lupin, who hated himself for trusting Stuart’s words and suspecting the divine physician. Damn it!

“Ms. Grant, did… did you really give this car to Mr. Jefferson, t-the divine physician?” asked Lupin in a timid manner.

“Would you like to see my identity card as well?” asked Maggie with a grouchy expression on.

“N-no, no need for that,” Lupin stuttered as he shook his head. He then turned to bow to Alex. “I am so sorry, divine physician, for suspecting your identity.”

“It’s fine. It’s good that you guys are so cautious. It’s your job, after all, and you did nothing wrong,” reassured Alex as he nodded.

Lupin sighed a huge breath of relief when Alex let him off easily.

“Thank you for understanding, divine physician,” said Lupin appreciatively.

Alex nodded before he turned to Stuart and mocked, “Hey dumbass, get on your knees.”

Stuart looked utterly pale.

He was sure that Alex couldn’t afford a luxurious car like that, but he never thought that the Grant family would buy it and give it to Alex as a gift.

That was a huge twist no one could have possibly seen coming!

“Don’t act so f*cking arrogant, Alex Jefferson. The Grant family were the ones who paid for the car and gave it to you, so why are you acting so proud?” scoffed Stuart.

Stuart refused to get down on his knees for Alex.

He wouldn’t do it even if they were alone and no one was watching, so he certainly wasn’t going to do that in a public space with so many witnesses.

“I am not being proud. I am simply asking you to honor your bet. Our bet didn’t specify that I needed to buy this car myself, it only stated that I needed to own it, remember?” said Alex as he grinned cruelly.

Stuart scoffed, “So what? I am a member of the Nixon family. Do you honestly think I would my knees for you?”

Ally threatened in distaste, “You better not ruin your own life, Alex Jefferson. The Nixon family is the second only to the richest family in the city. Do you even know what the consequences of offending the Nixon family are?”

Stuart waved his hand dismissively and gestured for Ally to stop talking. He scoffed and said, “I will stand right here. I’d like to see how he’s going to make me kneel.”

Stuart believed that Alex wouldn’t dare to force Stuart to kneel, even if the other man had somehow made and drank a brave tonic.

Everyone began worrying for Alex upon learning Stuart’s family background.

They all looked down on Stuart for being a sore loser, but Stuart was from a powerful family. That was why no one dared to make him honor his part of the deal.

That would just be suicide.

If Alex forced Stuart to kneel, the Nixon family would surely seek vengeance, and they might even target his family.

Heather thought about that too, so she couldn’t help saying, “Alex, it’s fine, that’s enough. Don’t be mean, okay?”

“Mean? How am I the mean one?” blurted Alex as his heart burned with fury when he turned to face Heather.

He didn’t think that Heather would repeatedly side with Stuart.

“Director Harvey was just joking around with you. Why are you being so serious?” Heather chided.

Alex’s lips curved into a skin-deep grin before he said, “I have always been a serious man. I don’t care if heaven itself made a bet with me. They must do as promised!”

“You!” exclaimed Heather, who was too angry to say anything else. She began stomping on the spot.

Alex ignored Heather and shifted his gaze back to Stuart. The former then warned, “I will give you three seconds. Kneel in front of me, or I will teach you what the consequences for acting out are.”

“F*ck you! Who do you think you are? How dare you threaten me? Well, then I will insist on acting out. What are you going to do about it?” scoffed Stuart, seeing Alex as a nobody.
