James' wife asked for a divorce, but not before revealing that his little daughter was not his biological child. Later, he was sent to prison, and upon his release, he was no longer the cowardly, poor, disgraceful man he had once been. He divorced his ex-wife that day and the next day, he was shown on TV as the richest billionaire in the world.

Counterattack Of The Useless Son-in-law Chapter 1 1

"James, let's get a divorce," James' wife, Lilian, spoke with a hard and cold tone.

James froze immediately after he heard those words; his fingers trembled a little as he continued cutting the cabbage that he had placed on a cutting board, trying to act as calmly as possible.

A divorce?

Why? What could've possibly gone wrong?

"You can't be serious, right?" James asked with a chuckle, wishing deep inside of him that what she just said was a joke.

"I am serious, James. I want a divorce as soon as possible" Lilian repeated, getting seriously pissed off.

James paused, dropping the knife before turning towards his wife. "But....why?. Is there anything that you're upset about? You can tell me, and I will try to make changes. I will--"

"James, I've had enough of this bullshit life we are living! Just take a look around! Does this place look big and beautiful to you? We've been living like this for four years!" Lilian yelled and James flinched.

The house that the family of three was living in was a medium-sized house with two bedrooms and a living room. It took James, who was a delivery guy more than a year to build this house. When the house was still being built, Lilian was always unhappy and nagging about the littlest things.

Lilian believed that James was just a poor guy her grandfather had forced her to marry. He had failed to move up to her expectations countless times. During her birthday, James decorated the whole house with love-shaped balloons and roses. He even cooked her favorite meal and bought her a diamond necklace worth $78. However, the moment Lilian entered the house, she went ballistic, smashing the roses with her foot and bursting the balloons.

And when James offered her the necklace, she threw it out of the window and into a pile of mud at a corner. "I don't know what my granddad saw in you that he had to force me to marry a poor wretched thing like you! Have you ever been to Lucy or Joan's birthday parties? Their husbands throw a very massive, well-decorated grande party with a cake towering the height of up to 6 humans put together!"

James apologized and promised to do better. James thought that things would change for the better after the birth of their daughter, Lily. How wrong he was. Things didn't change. Lilian and her family, except for Lilia's grandfather, still hated and disgraced him to date.

Even after doing everything to make her happy. He did his delivery work, cooked, cleaned, took care of their baby, and tried his very best to provide for them but none of them moved Lilian.

Just last week, her grandfather passed away and now, she was asking for a divorce.

"What about our kid, Lily? You can't let her grow up without a father" James spoke softly. He knew how it felt to grow up without a father, heck, without a mother too!

He didn't want his daughter to know that feeling.

"What kid? Lily isn't even yours, so you shouldn't care about that," she said, her voice dripping with malice.

James felt like he'd been punched in the gut. His eyes widened, and his breathing hitched. "What...what are you talking about?" he stuttered.

Lilian's chuckle sent shivers down James' spine. She popped a gum into her mouth, chewing slowly as she continued, "Isn't it obvious? Lily looks nothing like us. You saw me pregnant, saw her born...but she's not yours."

"Lily's father proposed to me last week after the death of my grandfather and we would be getting married next week. Isn't that great? He is 10 times richer than you could ever be in your next life, plus he has a great body, too. Let's get a divorce and ---"

"When?" James interrupted with a question, making Lilian raise an eyebrow.

"Huh?"

"When exactly did you cheat on me?" James asked, anger and disappointment laced his voice. He clenched his fists beside him as his body quivered.

Lilian grinned as if his pain and everything that was going on now were amusing. "Don't call it cheating, if not I would feel like a bad person"

James gritted his teeth as his fist tightened more. It was his way of trying to stay calm and not give in to his anger.

Lilian's gaze seemed to glaze over, lost in thought. "It was a month after we got married...I was with him." Her voice dropped to a whisper. "He came inside me that night. I thought it was just a mistake, that I wouldn't get pregnant."

James' face contorted in anguish.

Lilian's expression transformed, a sly grin spreading across her face. "But I did get pregnant. And when you asked me to go to the hospital, I lied. I told you it was just stomach discomfort.

"I went to the hospital only to find out I was pregnant. I knew I had to do something. I wanted to abort Lily at first, but the doctor said my body was too weak for an abortion, so I decided to pin her on you. I got naked that night and we had hot sex for hours"

Lilian smiled once again as she took sensual steps towards him before pressing her breasts on his chest. "There are only two things you got better than him, handsomeness and a nice big dick. Damn, you poor but you got some hell of stamina"

Lilian touched his belt buckle with her fingers. "One last time, James. For old times' sake." Her voice dripped with sarcasm. "You might not get this chance again...in this lifetime or the next."

James pushed her away from him before asking once again, "Who is Lily's dad?"

"Mr. Bill," Lilian said and James gritted his teeth. Lilian's boss. James always suspected that they shared a relationship other than a boss-and-employee relationship when Lilian got promoted from a newcomer to a secretary the very first week after getting a new job, but he didn't want to accuse her without evidence.

How stupid of him.

Suddenly, the sound of a car honking was heard and Lilian jumped up, squealing like a little child who was just given candy, "Oh my, Bill is here to take me out for wedding ring measurements"

Lilian took fast steps out of the kitchen and into the living room to find Bill already standing there. The man had a dark suit on and an expensive carate watch made out of pure Silver, costing more than $9, 000. He seemed to be a few years older than James.

"Honey, James agreed to the divorce," Lilian said happily as she hugged Bill's right arm.

"Oh? And here I was thinking he was not going to accept so easily. At least, he knows his place" Bill said with a chuckle, "Let's face it, James, you were never in the picture, not really. Lilian only stayed with you out of pity. She was waiting for someone like me all along-a real man who can give her everything she deserves"

James stood motionless, his eyes fixed on Bill, but his face betrayed nothing. He didn't flinch, didn't blink. They just stared as though the words bounced right off him.

"Lily's better off without a broke, loser dad like you. She deserves someone who can provide for her, not someone scraping by on tips. I'll show her what a real father is like"

Mr. Bill clicked his tongue, clearly irritated that his jab hadn't gotten a reaction. He took a step closer, "Look at you-barely getting by. And then look at me-wealth, success, and now, your wife and kid. No wonder Lilian chose me. You're out of your league, pal"

"Just a few more days after the divorce is finalized, and she'll be calling me dad. You know how easy it is to manipulate a kid like Lily at that age. She'll believe anything her guardian tells her. I could even convince her you're the villain in her story, like Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty. Imagine her hating you for---"

Before Bill could complete his statement, a hard painful punch hit his jaw. The sound of the punch echoed through the now quiet living room, and Bill's head snapped back. Bill felt a wave of pain wash over him, his vision blurred, and tears pricked at the corners of his eyes as he struggled to speak.

"Don't you ever call Lily's name with your vile mouth, if you do so again, I will kill you"

Lilian took a step back in fear.

For four years of their marriage, Lilia had done countless things to get James' pissed off. Ranging from destroying the necklace James had bought for her to even referring to him as her servant in an overcrowded supermarket, but he never snapped.

Not even once. But this time...

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

I sat on the edge of the examination table, the crinkle of the sanitary paper sounding like thunder in the sterile room. The doctor didn't even look at me as he confirmed the news: the pregnancy was over. My husband, Keyon, didn't answer my call. He just sent an automated text: "In a meeting." When I returned to our cold mansion, I found his iPad glowing with a message from his "muse," Katina. He was throwing her a secret gala tonight-on our third wedding anniversary. He told her he couldn't wait to escape the "boring" and "draining" atmosphere I created at home. Keyon didn't stumble in until 3 AM, smelling of Katina's perfume with a smear of red on his collar. When I handed him the divorce papers, he laughed in my face. He called me a "glorified housekeeper" with no skills and no future, promising I'd be back in three days begging for a subway ticket. He even bet his friends ten thousand dollars that I wouldn't survive a week without his name. He had his assistant cancel my credit cards and block my gate access before I even reached the end of the driveway. He wanted me to starve. He wanted me to crawl. He sat in his office, mocking the "desperate" woman who pawned her three-million-dollar wedding ring for scrap metal just to pay for a meal. I stood on the rainy curb, watching the man I had protected for three years treat my life like trash. He didn't know about the ultrasound I just threw in the bin. He didn't know that while he was calling me "dull," I was the one secretly writing the code that kept his billion-dollar empire from collapsing. As I slid into a cheap Uber, I opened a hidden, encrypted app on my phone. The screen refreshed to a dashboard for an account Keyon didn't know existed. The balance was ten figures long-the accumulated wealth of "Solaris," the world's most elusive tech genius. Keyon thinks he just evicted a parasite, but he's about to find out he just declared war on the only person who can hit "delete" on his entire life.
