Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 832 Compensation

In Carmen’s perspective, Maggie’s attraction to someone as useless as Alex was proof that she was all style and no substance.

On top of that, Alex had just slapped her, which Carmen found unacceptable considering it was in defense of a homewrecker.

Feeling aggrieved, she resorted to playing the victim. She sat on the floor and cried, “This is absurd! My live-in son-in-law cheated on his wife, divorced her, and had the audacity to slap me. He’s such a jerk?”

However, Carmen’s dramatic actions would have carried more weight if she were making a scene in public. Being in the comfort of her own home with no outsiders around rendered her acts futile.

Alex simply stared at her coldly until she was finished before turning toward Heather’s room. “I will take my leave as I have other matters to attend to for the remainder of the day. I will see you tomorrow at ten in the morning at the Civil Affairs Bureau to settle the divorce procedure.”

Just as he was about to leave, Lucas hurried over to intercept them. “Alex, are you going to walk away just like that? That woman has caused irreparable damage to my manhood. Shouldn’t I be compensated for that?”

“Compensate? What kind of compensation are you looking for? I’ll give it to you!” Flynn seized Lucas by the collar, his voice filled with fury and intensity.
