When A Woman Retaliates - Chapter 75

Ruhan pretended to listen to the presentation while paying attention to everyone’s expressions, specially his father’s.

But dissatisfaction he was hoping to see in his face didn’t appear. In fact, he seemed to be very much satisfied.  He sometimes nodded his head in approval.

It didn’t take long for Ruhan to be thoroughly disappointed. It was clear from everyone’s expressions that they were very happy.

Lisa was really capable at giving presentations, Ruhan had to admit that.

She didn’t present the slides only. She actively interacted with the people in the meeting room…sometimes joked with them.

Ruhan…who would usually be bored to death in such meetings,  wasn’t bored at all. Naturally one could understand how well the meeting went.

After the presentation everyone began to praise her and Ahmed Corporations. The foreign investors fixed a meeting with Mr. Ahmed the next day to discuss about further co-operation.  Only them Mr. Ahmed sighed of relief. Today was a success. He could finally sleep peacefully.

Lisa, Ruhan and Mr. Ahmed waited until everyone left the meeting room.

When the last person left, Lisa immediately went near Mr. Ahmed and asked eagerly, “Uncle, did you see my presentation?  Did you like it?”

Her eyes were shining brightly.  She looked like a little kid waiting for praise for her mother.

Ever since she had regarded Mr. Ahmed as her elder, she had thrown away all her politeness and etiquette.  Instead,  whenever she interacted with Mr. Ahmed, her voice would automatically become somewhat coquettish and she would act spoiled. Lisa didn’t do it intentionally.  This wad how she interacted with Mr. and Mrs. Akter.

Mr. Ahmed, who had three sons but no daugher, had always been vulnerable such behaviour. He believed that boys should be disciplined strictly.  So he had rarely showed his soft side to any of his sons. He had always wanted a daughter whom he could spoil.

Lisa happened to fit the category he liked.

If it had been an other employee or one of his sons, he wouldn’t have praised them for today’s presentation. But when Lisa came to him enthusiastically ,  he couldn’t bear to be indifferent.  He chuckled and patted her head, “You did good.  I knew that you wouldn’t disappoint me.”

Then he stuffed his credit card in her hand and told her, “Go buy something for yourself.”

When Ruhan saw this, he almost vomited blood. Wasn’t it just a presentation?  Did he have to reward him like that?

Lisa also widened her eyes. The card Mr. Ahmed gave her didn’t have any limitations.  She could spend as much as she wanted!!! She had never thought that he would give his credit card just like that!!!

Lisa pouted and asked him, “Aren’t you worried that I would spend all of your money? ”

Mr. Ahmed shrugged,  “People earn money to spend. Buy whatever you want. I’ll just earn back.”

He then narrowed his eyes and asked her sternly,  “or is it that you doubt your father-in-law? ”

Lisa pretended to be scared and timidly,  “I don’t dare!!! I am not returning you the credit card ever.” she ran away with a naughty expression.

Mr. Ahmed chuckled again and shook his head helplessly.

‘Swindler’ this was came to Ruhan’s mind when he saw their interactions.

‘This damn girl was clearly swindling money from father by acting cute.’

Ruhan was really surprised.  He never knew that his hateful wife could even act like this in front of his father.

He was surprised even more to see that his father fell for it!!!

The image of his father in his mind collapsed a bit!

‘Damn you!’ Ruhan cursed her.

But soon an idea came to his mind!!!

He was more handsome and cute than Lisa. Moreover,  he was Mr. Ahmed’s biological son. If Lisa could get advantage from her father-in-law by acting cute,  he could take even more advantage from his father!!!!

With this thought in mind, Ruhan approached his father cheekily and asked him cutely,  “Dad, what about me? Amn’t I behaving well these days? Do I get a reward?”

Mr. Ahmed looked at him in disdain and told him, “A married grown up unemployed man like you  is asking for a reward!  What a joke!!! What did you do to deserve reward? You do nothing but freeload at home. You are the one who should pay me money.”

He then strode away.

Ruhan almost choked after being scolded by his father!!!

‘Gender discrimination.  It is pure gender discrimination. ‘ he mumbled softly.

His father’s discrimination against him really made him speechless.

He scolded his father once again for his gender discrimination and returned to party with a heavy mood.
