Strongest Son-in-law

''Kelvin, why are you always dragging your feet when you go out to buy groceries. Do you want to starve all of us?'' As soon as he got home, Kelvin saw his mother-in-law, Grace sitting on the sofa as she started scolding him as usual. " Sorry mom, there was traffic'' '' Don't give me any excuses, why can a freeloader like you use your brain. Even if there was traffic, you could have walked. Its just 7 kilometres. Can't you see what time it is? You want to starve us all to death. No wonder people say you are a good for nothing. Other people have better son-in-law, why do I have a useless son-in-law.'' Grace Smith berated. '' Go Cook and clean the floor.'' "yes...yes...'' Kelvin went to the kitchen to go and prepare the meal. As this has been his usual routine ever since that faithful night. The Smith family was a second-rate family in Petronia city. Three months ago, Kelvin was going home after working at the mechanic shop, he saw a pretty young Lady who was walking haphazardly. He took pity on her and sent her home not knowing she had been drugged upon reaching home, she forced herself on him. The next morning, upon waking up, Selina Smith was shocked beyond belief at what had transpired and went home to inform her Parents. They insisted Kelvin marry her to avoid bringing shame as their daughter became pregnant. As such his mother-in-law never really liked him as she thought that Kelvin had destroyed her daughters future. The wedding caused a huge sensation in Petronia city as one of the daughter of the Smith family had married a useless husband. It was a ridiculous farce that was well-known among the upper circles of Petronia city. Although Kelvin was an orphan as his parents died when he was young he still remembered their teachings and told himself that he would change his life as his marriage was a contract marriage. It would expire once the child was born. He remembered that his dad always said to not rely on others but to build yourself up from wherever dark place you may find yourself. His father-in-law was a man of dignity and said he would help Kelvin if he passed the test. But he never stated what type of test. After they got married, Kelvin and Selina had never had a real relationship. They had not had a real conversation as a couple. He was made to quit his job and be a live-in son-in-law. He was surprised as he would have no income to take care of his child but his father-in-law, Nathan insisted. Nathan soon traveled after the marriage and grace has made Kelvin's life a nightmare as he had to do everything at the house and would not be allowed to eat with the family. His life was medicre at best but he still held on. Although Kelvin didn't like it, he still endured Grace's treatment. When Selina returned home, she gave Kelvin. the cold shoulder and went to her room. After taking a shower, she sat by the window in her bathrobe. The light above her head illuminated her smooth and delicate skin, and the dews on her shoulder just beginning to form. However Selina's face was filled with sadness. ''Ah, its really tiring to be alone.'' Selina sighed as she looked at shersekf Indus mirror. ''Visionary Company, Larson Group , they are all companies that I cant afford to offend. Now even Dragonfire, which is an inferior company, is even bullying me.'' Selina's eyes were filled with tears as she couldn't continue. She thought of Kelvin who was cooking. Other people's husband where elites in their companies. Even if they didn't have extraordinary abilities, the were still reliable and dependable. Why did hers haa to be useless even after impregnating her. ''Dinner is ready.'' Kelvin's voice derailed her thought. She jumped up in fright and angrily rebuked. ''Why didn't you knock before talking? Now get out!" Kelvin mustered up the courage, approached her and asked, ''Are facing difficulty in the company? '' ''None of you business. I said Get out.'' '' Even though I may be a live-in husband, I can still help you. '' Selina became even more angrier as she couldn't figure out why her husband was becoming annoying. 'Did I do something bad to deserve this ' she thought. Kelvin saw his wife becoming more angry and decided to leave. He would find out about it from his friend at the company. ''Kevin did you do something to my daughter? '' Grace who heard the commotion, decided to check what was going on. Upon seeing her daughter angry she immediately exploded, scolding Kelvin. '' You good for nothing man, why do you have to anger my daughter, other people's son-in-laws are CEOs and live in luxurious apartments, whereas mine is a useless piece of crap who angers my daughter even after impregnating her.'' '' But more I didn't do anyth...'' '' Shut up you piece of crap, how can you be a monster even if we don't treat you right she is your wife and the mother of your child how can you make her this angry '' ' She is right, I shouldn't have made her angry. After all, she is pregnant with my child.' With the thought in mind, Kelvin became quiet. Upon seeing him becoming quiet, Grace became even more angry as he was too weak to be her son-in-law, she must find a way to make him suffer till the deadline comes. With this thought in mind, she left the room with Selina. Seeing them leave, Kelvin clenched his fudt tightly. He was helpless and aggrieved. Grace was right, he is a married man expecting a child he should have a backbone and be the man of the house since Nathan, his father in-law, was on a business trip abroad. No one knew when he will return. 'I have to come up with a plan.' he thought as he walked to his room. Naturally, the didn't cal Kelvin for dinner. After Grace finished eating she dumped the remaining food into the trash to prevent Kelvin from eating when they leave. She wanted him to starve to death. VROOM. VROOM. The car downstairs started as the beautiful Porsche 911 left the house. Kelvin was standing at the window, watching it leave. The more he thought about Selina being sad, the more resolute. He took his phone and dialed his friend.
