My Husband Is a Brother-in-Law Supporter

After falling pregnant, a woman's life turns into a nightmare when her brother-in-law, Reese Flynn, incurs a million-dollar gambling debt. Her mother-in-law, Kaylee Larsen, demands she sell her deceased parents' house to clear the debt. When she refuses to surrender her only inheritance, her in-laws and Reese violently assault her, while her sister-in-law Lizeth threatens her life. Worst of all, her husband Cedric mockingly sides with his family. Left with nothing but defiance, she dares them to try and take it.

The moment I walked in.

I saw a crowd of relatives gathered in our living room.

Kaylee and Lizeth were sobbing on the couch, while my father-in-law Glenn Flynn sat off to the side, sighing heavily.

Reese knelt in front of Kaylee, slapping himself repeatedly.

I walked over and asked, "What's going on?"

Kaylee shot me an angry look. "What's going on? You tell me! Reese is in deep trouble, and you, as his sister-in-law, were the last to show up, acting like it's none of your business."

Before we got married, Kaylee used to be all smiles and kindness toward me. But after the wedding, she changed, scolding me frequently. I always chalked it up to her age and didn't let it bother me.

I looked at my husband. "Cedric, tell me."

My husband pursed his lips, looking a little down. "My brother got hooked on some shady online gambling and lost over a million dollars. He owes it all to loan sharks, and now they've come to collect. If he doesn't pay, they'll kill him."

I got angry right away, "Six months ago, he fell for a scam and lost 300 thousand dollars, and your parents barely managed to bail him out. How is he gambling again?"

Reese had always been trouble, constantly getting into messes that the family had to clean up.

When that scam happened six months ago, I wasn't even married to Cedric yet. I had already warned my husband then that they couldn't keep enabling Reese, but he wouldn't listen.

I never imagined Reese would make an even bigger mess this time.

The last time, his parents had to empty their life savings to cover that 300 thousand dollars. Now he owed one million dollars. How were they going to pay that?
