Part 1: Main Character of Slumdog Billionaire Husband
![Gerald in Slumdog Billionaire Husband](https://www.dreame.com/resources/media/2023/04/slumdog-billionaire-husband-main-character.png)
From the very beginning of the story, we are introduced to Gerald as someone who works at a construction site. Though, there is a lot more to his past that he does not realize whatsoever as a beautiful short-haired woman tries to convince him that she was not lying about knowing who he was.
The woman claimed over and over that Gerald was the ace of the mysterious army, Night Watch, and that he was famous around the world. He was even called a slaughterer by some for his excellence and feared aura.
However, Gerald disputed these claims and continued working for his family. Little did he know, he would be abandoned by them right after that, forced to sign divorce papers after his wife, Irene, finds a rich boyfriend who buys her cars and expensive things.
Angry at the treatment he received from his in-laws despite his efforts to support them, including the down payment on their house, he signed the papers while trying to hold his anger.
This initiated the chain of events that would lead him to the short-haired woman again, while she informed him that all of his former wealth was on a diamond card that he once owned and that the password was his birthday. This leads him to discover that the balance on his account was over 200 million dollars!
Part 2: The Tragedies of Gerald in Slumdog Billionaire Husband

Most novels starring divorced sons-in-law start with their mistreatment and Gerald was no exception. His mother-in-law approached him at the construction site he sweats blood and tears at with expensive clothing, mocked him over and over despite him restraining himself from talking back, and made him sign divorce papers after all he had done.
He gave every penny of his earnings to his family, he had placed a down payment on their house of which he owned no part, he worked hard every single day to provide for them, and this was the treatment he got right after Irene found a slightly rich boyfriend that bought her things. The real salt in the wound was that Gerald never even touched Irene’s finger in all their years of marriage.
These exact tragedies are exactly what make the story so enticing when you move further on. Gerald’s newfound wealth was given so much more meaning, his lost memories were made so much more exciting considering how low he had stooped in status, and the way he exacts his revenge on his former family that completely abandoned him was made oh so much more satisfying.
It isn’t saying much to state that novels starring sons-in-law that exact their revenge aren’t unique by any means, though they are wildly entertaining.

The story progresses after their divorce of Gerald as he finds out more and more about his past, starting with his insurmountable bank balance. The way he shocked the security guards of his premium bank was quite exciting to read through.
We slowly get introduced to some more of his friends that support him, and Gerald shows his generous side as he supports them financially with all the issues they may have. Further characters like Irene’s cousin get introduced, and while they try to be commanding over Gerald and think of him as scum, he’s the one that’s laughing over all his wealth and their commoner-like status for him.
Reading through every chapter of this novel is an experience filled with anxiety, as we patiently await when Gerald reveals his true nature to both us and the people around him, and we also patiently wait for the revelation of his past and who he really was.
