The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Laying on the ground weakly, Joey stared at the taxi driver who walked towards him with his fearsome look. His arrogant expression when he threatened the driver had long diminished. 1 He grimaced in despair and pleaded, "Boss, I just went bankrupt, I am penniless and I have a lot of debts! And I was beaten up too! Please, I really have no money to pay you, please let me go!" 1 The driver growled furiously, "Do you think you're the only one with a debt?! Do you think I would still drive a taxi if I were rich? Do you think that forty-five dollars is easy money? It can fill my stomach for two days, for f*ck's sake! Hurry up and pay me!" 1

Joey struggled to get on his knees and cried, "Boss, I really don't have any money even if you want to kill me right now! Please, I beg you, please let me go! Is it not enough that I'm bowing to you? Please see me as your son who bows his head to you during Christmas! Like my father, you still have to give me a present, don't you?" 8

Joey sobbed, "Frankly, I've been an orphan since I was a child. I grew up in an orphanage. After years of hard work, I managed to save a hundred and twenty thousand dollars, but I was cheated by my friend from the orphanage. That b*stard had not only defrauded my savings but he had also lured me to take a five hundred thousand dollar loan from various online money lender platforms. I'm at a dead end now..." 1
