The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 82
Elaine was absolutely thrilled!
All these gifts were incredibly valuable!
While she wasn’t sure about the worth of the antiques, she knew that the box of collectible Moutai Flying Fairy liquor was significant—each bottle was valued at thirty to forty thousand, making the box of twenty bottles worth hundreds of thousands!
Then there were the collectible Yellow Crane cigars; each pack cost five thousand, and with fifty packs in a box, the total exceeded two hundred thousand. Combined, those two items alone were worth a million!
What a wonderful opportunity!
With those two VIP cards in her possession, she finally had the means to impress her old friends!
Claire observed Elaine’s greedy expression and sighed, “Mom…”
Elaine shot her a look, “What’s wrong? Can’t I accept a gift from someone?”
Claire replied, “I just think we shouldn’t take it. I still don’t fully understand what’s happening. How can I accept such a valuable gift?”
At this moment, Charlie stated calmly, “This is an apology gift; you should accept it.”
The middle-aged man felt relieved.
Before they came, the Pavilion Master had emphasized that if Mr. Wade did not accept these items, they couldn’t return.
Charlie turned to see Elaine joyfully arranging the cigarettes and alcohol in the house. She was admiring a pair of antique vases, examining them under the lamp. He sighed internally and told the middle-aged man, “You can head back now.”
“Sure, I won’t interrupt you, Mr. Wade,” he responded.
Charlie closed the door, turned around, and was surprised to see all three people in the living room staring at him curiously.
Elaine cleared her throat, faking a smile, and asked, “Charlie, when did you become friends with the Treasure Pavilion? Why did they come to our house with gifts and apologies?”
Charlie shook his head, “Mom, you’ve misunderstood. I don’t have any relationship with them. They came to apologize mainly because the Treasure Pavilion emphasizes good service. Their staff made mistakes, and the boss wanted to compensate extensively…”
Elaine deflated instantly, her expression falling as she said, “I thought you were successful and could mingle with important people, but it turns out it’s just because of their good service…”
Claire was somewhat puzzled. Did they really send such expensive gifts just to apologize for a poor service experience?
However, after receiving so many gifts, Elaine’s mood improved. She finally stopped directing her annoyance at Charlie and began to plot how to sell the cigarettes and alcohol first.
After dinner, while Charlie was washing the dishes in the kitchen, he suddenly received a call.
The caller was Graham, who had met Charlie on two occasions and had been supportive.
The jade bracelet had been gifted to him by Graham.
On the phone, Graham said respectfully, “Master Wade!”
Charlie replied indifferently, “What’s up?”
Graham hurriedly said, “Thanks to your advice last time, the Quinton family has experienced much smoother sailing lately. We owe you a debt of gratitude otherwise, our family would have faced significant trouble.”
Charlie responded nonchalantly, “I wouldn’t say it’s been that smooth. If it were, why are you calling me now?”
Graham hesitated, managing an awkward laugh, “You truly possess an uncanny insight, Mr. Wade. Nothing escapes your notice.”
Charlie merely smiled faintly and remained silent.
Eventually, Graham spoke with a tremor in his voice, “Mr. Wade, please help my Quinton family again. We will forever be in your debt.”
His voice turned pale and he trembled slightly as if gripped by fear.
Charlie frowned and asked calmly, “Is the jade cracked?”
“Indeed, Mr. Wade is truly perceptive. You’re absolutely right.” With deep reverence, Graham continued, “I followed your advice and worshipped the jade plug. I instructed my family to adhere to a vegetarian diet for seven days and avoid bloodshed.”
“However, my incompetent nephew Adam secretly consumed pigeon soup, accidentally tainting the jade plug with pigeon blood. It immediately shattered into pieces. I punished him and confined him at home, but strange occurrences continue to unfold!”
Charlie furrowed his brow and asked, “What strange occurrences?”
Graham rushed to explain, “Last night, a fierce storm hit and a lightning bolt struck the courtyard of the Quinton home, setting ablaze a century-old osmanthus tree. To make matters worse, the ancestral tablet in our ancestral hall inexplicably fell and broke into two pieces. This is an unmistakable bad omen.”
Charlie pondered this. In Feng Shui, an osmanthus tree planted in a courtyard symbolizes wealth and good fortune.
However, if such a tree was struck by lightning, it foretold the family’s downfall.
Breakage of the ancestral tablet indicated impending ruin for the Quinton family.
He hadn’t anticipated the ominous force of the jade plug to be so intense, to the point where it could be activated by pigeon blood.
Graham’s heart raced as he awaited Charlie’s response, pleading, “Even though my Quinton family is involved in business, we have always been kind and never engaged in wrongful actions. Please show mercy, Master Wade and save us!”
Charlie replied, “Graham, it’s not that I won’t help you, but the jade plug’s curse is far too severe. Adam has been affected for years and the evil presence now envelops the Quinton family home. Ordinary methods will not quell it.”
“What should we do, then? This calamity is truly devastating for the Quinton family!” Graham exclaimed, trembling.
Charlie contemplated for a moment before saying, “The evil force becomes more powerful with blood, especially pigeon blood. To subdue such a heavy curse, we must rely on the strength of heaven and earth’s treasures.”
“Alright, if there’s anything Master Wade needs, I will do whatever it takes,” Graham promised desperately.
Charlie replied calmly, “I’ll be attending an auction at the Treasure Pavilion tomorrow. I’ll look for any spiritual objects there. Whether you can acquire them will depend on your luck.”
“Thank you, Master Wade, I will owe you a great debt.” Graham remarked, relieved as if he had found a lifeline.
He quickly added, “Mr. Wade, I will send you a black card. If you need money for anything, just swipe it!”
Charlie acknowledged, knowing he couldn’t let his expenses fall solely on him while assisting the Quinton family. He then cautioned, “Prepare yourself mentally, obtaining heaven and earth treasures isn’t straightforward. You can only come across them by chance and whether they are at the auction depends on your family’s fortune.”
Graham kept insistent, “Yes, I will inquire further privately, but I still must trouble you, Master Wade.”
After the incident, he sought the help of several renowned Feng Shui Masters, but they took one look at the Quinton family’s home and quickly turned him away, not daring to enter due to fear.
Now, Graham’s only hope of salvation rested with Charlie.
Charlie couldn’t shake his feelings of concern.
According to numerology, Graham was an individual who had never done anything wrong throughout his life and should have met a peaceful end.
Who could have predicted that fate would turn against him? The presence of Adam, a harbinger of disaster, had caused chaos in the family. If he did not intervene, the Quinton family could face destruction within a year.
Not only would it be detrimental to Graham and Adam, but also to his charming little firecracker, Aurora, who might also suffer dire consequences!

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 73
Daniel Koch brought Claire into his office and once he closed the door, a burning desire flickered in his eyes. He quietly locked the door and gestured for Claire to sit on the sofa.
Claire appeared somewhat uncomfortable, sitting across from him with her hands nervously twisted together.
Daniel smiled and asked, “Miss. Wilson, did you come to discuss a potential collaboration with me today?”
Feeling a bit sheepish, Claire replied, “To be honest, Mr. Koch, our Wilson Group has been experiencing some cash flow issues lately and I wanted to ask if we could purchase a batch of building materials on credit.”
“On credit?” Daniel responded with an awkward expression. “Miss. Wilson, you should know our Elite Vault Enterprise’s stance. We don’t engage in credit transactions, we require payment up front before dispatching materials…”
“I understand,” Claire said apologetically. “I really don’t have any other options. But please rest assured, we have a partnership with Emgrand Group, which is the largest enterprise in Aurous Hill. They will definitely honor their payments for our project. Once the payment is received on time, we will immediately settle our due payment with you!”
Daniel chuckled lightly and said, “That sounds good in theory, but Miss. Wilson, it’s not personal. Do you know why I instituted the no-credit policy?”
Claire shook her head. “No, I don’t.”
Daniel explained, “I used to be quite accommodating. When customers wanted to take goods first and pay later, I agreed, hoping to foster business relationships. They all promised that once their client paid, they would make payments to us promptly. But what was the outcome? I ended up losing over 300 million in unpaid goods!”
“Three hundred million?” Claire was taken aback by that staggering figure.
The total assets of the entire Wilson Group only amount to a little over 100 million. It was surprising to learn that Daniel was unable to collect more than 300 million from other partners!
Daniel sighed, “It leaves me no choice. Those partners who refuse to pay always use the same excuses, claiming they will pay soon, but they never do.”
Shaking his head, Daniel said, “In the end, I had no choice but to halt all credit arrangements. You can take the goods I have plenty available, but they must be paid for in advance.”
Claire looked visibly disappointed. It seemed that this matter couldn’t be negotiated. Yet, she understood that given their policy, she couldn’t persuade them to abandon it. So, she stood up and said, “I’m really sorry, Mr. Koch. I’ll go back and tell my grandmother that it’s best if we gather the funds soon to work with you.”
Seeing her rising to leave, Daniel quickly interjected, “Wait! Miss. Wilson, don’t worry!”
He stood up hurriedly and continued, “What I just said applies to ordinary partners, but for you, Miss. Wilson, things can be considered differently!”
Claire, feeling confused, asked, “Mr. Koch, what do you mean?”
Daniel narrowed his eyes, looking at Claire with blatant longing.
Honestly, Claire was stunningly beautiful! Her beauty took Daniel’s breath away!
For years, he had been stuck with his frumpy, unappealing wife at home, a woman who paled in comparison to Claire.
Claire was flawless and her alluring figure was simply mesmerizing. She was perfection! Why didn’t he possess such fortune? Why would such an extraordinary woman choose to marry a well-known loser? Was her useless husband really better than him?
As these thoughts spiraled in his mind, Daniel felt restless, as if countless ants were crawling around in his heart.
He realized that he had missed so many opportunities for so long and now, in the twilight of his life, he was still shackled to that repulsive woman.
Today presented an incredible opportunity to break free from fate’s constraints!
Yes!
He was determined to take a chance with Claire!
To pursue this breathtaking beauty that every man in the city coveted!
With a smile, he said, “Oh, Miss. Wilson, since you have this need, let’s have a proper discussion. I, Daniel, am not so difficult to deal with as you might think.”
Excited by the prospect, Claire hurried back to her seat and asked eagerly, “Mr. Koch, are you willing to provide us with building materials on credit?”
Daniel intentionally left his answer vague, saying, “If it were anyone else, I would definitely refuse outright, but for you, Miss. Wilson, I can consider it…”
Claire eagerly stated, “In reality, our relationship with Emgrand Group is quite close. If you extend credit for the building materials, we can pay you immediately after receiving the first batch from Emgrand.”
Daniel nodded, “Just a moment, let me prepare some tea so we can discuss this further.”
He stood up and retrieved a teapot from the cabinet.
With his back turned to Claire, he added tea leaves to the pot while discreetly pulling out a box of sleeping pills from his pocket.
He had been prescribed these strong sleeping pills by his doctor due to his recent insomnia; one pill could easily keep him asleep all day.
Daniel intended to use this opportunity to take advantage of Claire in the office, so he added six sleeping pills to the tea.
This way, as long as Claire drank a cup of tea, it would practically be like consuming a pill.
Once she was drugged, she would be at his mercy. He could have his way with her, film compromising videos and photos and later use them as leverage to threaten her!
As soon as Claire showed any inclination to report him or inform others, he would threaten her by releasing those images and videos, ensuring she would be unable to lift her head in shame for the rest of her life!
He firmly believed that Claire would never dare to call the police or expose what had happened.
With that, he would possess all the power!
He could be with her whenever he desired, and if she ever resisted, he could threaten her with the incriminating evidence and force her compliance!
Wouldn’t that grant him a stunning partner? Hahaha, how exhilarating would that be?
As such thoughts consumed him, he became increasingly euphoric. After preparing the tea, his demeanor returned to normal and he sat back on the sofa.
While pouring a cup of tea for Claire, he said, “Miss. Wilson, don’t rush. Let’s enjoy a cup of tea and chat slowly.”
Claire, not suspecting anything, felt a bit parched after their lengthy discussion. She picked up the teacup and took a generous sip.
Daniel was filled with anticipation!
His eyes fixated on Claire, admiring her long, elegant legs, slender waist, perfect figure and exquisite face…
This woman radiated an irresistible allure, igniting his excitement even more.
Today was his golden opportunity!
As Daniel fantasized about fully enjoying this perfect woman, he felt an almost overwhelming heat coursing through his body!

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 94
In less than five minutes, the dishes that had just been freshly prepared on the table had all rotted and spoiled, insects and mosquitoes swarming out in clusters.
In the yard, a rooster raised by the White family was crowing away.
Several mosquitoes darted towards the rooster at incredible speed. Within just over ten seconds, the rooster let out a cry, flapped its wings, fell to the ground, and writhed before dying.
A swarm of black mosquitoes emerged from the feathers of the dead chicken and ascended into the air.
The black mosquitoes filled the sky, swirling towards the crowd like a violent storm.
Chaos erupted in the yard as people scrambled to avoid them.
These black mosquitoes were highly venomous. They not only bit people but could also penetrate the skin through open wounds.
Although the mosquitoes were tiny, no bigger than grains of sand, getting bitten by one would result in excruciating pain.
Those affected would swell visibly and experience intolerable agony.
The skilled individuals present deployed their best methods, casting talismans and chanting spells.
Some even took refuge under tables, while others leapt into the pool, screaming in panic.
“What on earth is happening?” Jasmine exclaimed, terrified.
“This is a corpse magic!” Finn replied, both shocked and furious. “It’s made from the corpse of an infant from Julesburg. I can’t believe Jack Yaleman would summon such a malevolent creature.”
Jack Yaleman laughed maliciously and declared, “This corpse magic is crafted from a fetus it’s the deadliest kind. If you don’t respect me, none of you will escape.”
The swarm of black mosquitoes continued to multiply, and an elderly man was bitten, swelling up and vomiting black blood before collapsing to the ground.
The sight of the black mosquitoes made everyone’s skin crawl, and Jasmine was equally unsettled.
But then she noticed something surprising, there were no mosquitoes near Charlie!
Whenever the mosquitoes approached him, they instantly turned into black ash, as if repelled by something profoundly terrifying!
Charlie, wearing a smug smile, walked purposefully towards Jack Yaleman, holding a white shell talisman in his hand.
This talisman was the Thunder Order he had created! The shell talisman emanated a faint glow, with threads of lightning crackling around it.
Jack Yaleman watched in disbelief and murmured, “What’s happening? How can this be…?”
Charlie appeared to be enveloped in a radiant aura, almost like a divine being, his expression icy.
“Impossible! The corpse magic has already been formed and no one can handle it!” Jack Yaleman shouted hoarsely.
Charlie regarded Jack Yaleman with disdain and scoffed, “You dare call yourself a Master with such pathetic tricks? Today, you will witness true supernatural power!”
Then, Charlie proclaimed, “Thunder is coming!”
The moment he finished speaking, a tremendous sound erupted!
“Boom!”
In an instant, a deafening roar resonated from the skies, rapidly transforming the previously clear sky into a mass of dark clouds!
Before long, the heavens were completely shrouded by ominous clouds!
“This is unbelievable!” Finn exclaimed, staring upward, rendered speechless by the sight.
Everyone, Jasmine included, wore similar expressions of astonishment.
Graham murmured, “It’s a miracle, this has to be a miracle!”
In the next moment, a silver lightning bolt snaked down from the sky!
“Crack!”
The lightning struck the mosquitoes, incinerating a substantial number of them in an instant.
Tables and chairs splintered, trees toppled and the air was saturated with the acrid smell of burning.
Charlie stood calmly with his hands behind his back, looking up with cold determination, with streaks of lightning crackling around him, resembling a deity descending from the heavens!
Strong winds whipped through the courtyard as heavy rain began to fall, washing away the charred remnants scattered on the ground.
A few seconds later, the crowd snapped back to reality, scrambling in fear of being struck by lightning.
“Oh my god, he… he isn’t human! He’s a god!”
“Don’t hit me! I’ll kneel and apologize to Mr. Wade!”
“Please, help me! I was wrong!”
Several individuals dropped to their knees, bowing before Charlie.
Graham, terrified, tucked himself under the table, overwhelmed by reverence.
Yet, the thunder seemed to have a mind of its own, targeting only the mosquitoes and leaving the people unharmed.
Jack Yaleman’s expression was one of utter shock and terror! He never imagined Charlie possessed such formidable power!
In comparison, he felt like a mere insect! If the raging thunder struck him, he doubted he’d even remain intact!
In a panic, he scrambled to his feet and rolled out of the courtyard, desperate to escape and vowing never to return to Aurous Hill. He couldn’t think about being a respected figure here anymore!
“Trying to run away?”
Charlie smirked coldly and pointed, “More thunder!”
“Boom!”
A bolt of lightning struck Jack Yaleman on the head, sending him crashing to the ground and smashing the pottery jar he held.
His hands throbbed with pain and fear gripped him as he trembled and screamed.
“Master Wade! Please, Master Wade… spare my life…”
Charlie’s expression remained frosty as he advanced toward him step by step.
“Using a fetus to refine Magic is utterly against the laws of nature and morality!”
“You are wicked and the heavens are right to punish you! I will bring you that punishment today with thunder! Do you accept your fate?”
Jack Yaleman’s mouth opened wide in horror, but words escaped him. He could only watch as lightning crackled ominously above him, wailing in despair, as if today marked his end…
Why! Why did such a terrifying force exist in Aurous Hill? Why had he been so foolish to provoke it…?
“Boom!”
Just as Jack Yaleman pondered the unfolding events, several bolts of lightning struck simultaneously, one of which struck him directly!
Mr. Jack Yaleman, who had been so aggressively arrogant moments ago, didn’t even have time to scream before he was left scorched and lifeless on the ground.
What remained of him was no longer human, reduced to a charred, lifeless husk. The scent of burning flesh filled the yard, nauseating those present.
“The rain has ceased and the winds pick up!”
With a wave of his hand, Charlie miraculously brought the torrential rain to an abrupt stop. A gust of wind rose from the ground, stirring sand and debris and sweeping away the stench of charred remains.
In the midst of the swirling winds, Charlie’s demeanor remained unflappable, as if nothing out of the ordinary had occurred.
But the people in the courtyard were already in shock, their mouths agape.
Adam trembled in fear, too afraid to say a word. Had Charlie unleashed that lightning upon him then, he would have been dead. He now understood that Charlie had spared him all along, which was why he was still standing.
“Master Wade, you… you truly are a god!”
Graham’s voice quivered as he dropped to his knees, clasping his hands in front of Charlie.
Zeke White was equally terrified he also fell to his knees, crawling several steps closer to Charlie while repeatedly bowing in supplication.
“Master Wade, please let me live! I was misled and colluded with Mr. Yaleman… no, with Your the God! Please spare me… I swear I will serve you faithfully and do anything you ask!”
Charlie cast a cool glance at him while walking past Zeke White.
Finn spoke with reverence, “From this day forth, Master Wade shall be recognized as the venerable leader of Newton! From now on, the metaphysical community of Newton will heed your commands.”
Commanding the entire metaphysical community of Newton! Moments ago, they had been in a battle for their lives, yet now there were no objections. Everyone was convinced and in unison, they shouted their agreement.
“Master Wade, please give us your orders for Aurous Hill!”

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 63
Seeing Mr. Quinton being obstinate, Charlie shook his head and sneered in contempt. “You can’t even distinguish between a gourd and a jade plug? Have you never heard the old saying, ‘Gold and jade in the nine orifices, the dead are immortal’?”
“What gold and jade? Dead people?” Mr. Quinton looked confused.
Charlie shook his head as if dealing with a “hopeless case.” “You don’t know this? Surely you’ve heard of nine-aperture jade?”
“What nine-aperture jade?” Mr. Quinton stared at Charlie, baffled.
Although Mr. Quinton had an interest in antiques, he lacked the dedication to truly understand them. He simply bought whatever others deemed valuable to show off.
“Foolish!”
Charlie scoffed, “Nine-orifice jade is the jade plug used by the deceased to seal their nine orifices. There are seven in the ears, nose, mouth and eyes, with the reproductive and excretion orifices adding up to a total of nine.”
“Dead people!!” Mr. Quinton’s mouth dropped open, his eyes wide with disbelief. He looked at the jade hanging around his neck, his skin prickling with sudden dread. This came from a dead person?
Charlie said mockingly, “It appears you really don’t understand. This piece in your hand was used by the deceased to block the excretion hole, essentially the jar door. You actually wear it around your neck. Don’t you think it’s disgusting?”
Mr. Quinton could no longer respond. He stared at the jade gourd in his hand, overwhelmed by a wave of nausea.
This jade gourd was actually used in such a way!
And he had mistaken it for a good luck charm, wearing it around his neck for three years…
What was particularly infuriating was that because he liked it so much, he often picked it up with his mouth to play with it…
Wasn’t that like indirectly consuming the filth of the ancients?
“Ugh!”
Mr. Quinton couldn’t hold it in any longer and doubled over, retching.
The crowd, which had been eagerly watching moments ago, now looked at him with scorn.
Some even took pleasure in his misfortune, mocking Mr. Quinton for being oblivious and wasting a lot of money on such an ill-fated trinket.
Charlie coldly added, “Additionally, this jade piece has soaked up corpse chi for a long time and absorbed enough malevolent energy. It is no longer a good luck charm, but rather a very ominous object! If you continue to wear it, you’ll undoubtedly face dire consequences within a year.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the people surrounding Mr. Quinton hurriedly stepped back, afraid of being tainted by the evil energy clinging to him.
Zachary, who stood near Mr. Quinton, also scrambled to the edge.
Although he typically made a living by petty scams, he had dealt with local crooks and realized that Charlie’s words weren’t baseless!
Mr. Quinton, also shaken, looked up at Charlie in a dazed manner.
Charlie’s expression was cold and he scoffed, “Have you had a streak of bad luck this year? Maybe a car accident or something?”
Mr. Quinton stared at Charlie, completely stunned. He had, in fact, been unlucky this year. He’d experienced a car accident at the beginning of the year. If he hadn’t been in a crash-resistant Hummer that day, he might have been killed.
The driver had died on the spot and he had broken two ribs, spending half a month in the hospital before he could return home.
Mr. Quinton was sweating profusely now. He quickly ripped the jade piece from his neck and threw it away.
The crowd retreated rapidly, not wanting to be associated with his predicament.
Seeing Mr. Quinton’s guilty expression, Charlie felt a twinge of satisfaction. If he hadn’t intervened today, Mr. Quinton would have likely met his end before the year’s end.
“Who are you?” Mr. Quinton gritted his teeth and glared at Charlie.
This person knew far too much. Could he be sent by his enemies?
“I’m someone you can’t afford to provoke.” Charlie replied coldly before turning to leave.
Mr. Quinton saw Charlie attempting to escape and bellowed, “Catch him! If he dares to come at me, that kid must have someone backing him! Can’t afford to provoke? Ha! In all of Aurous Hill City, there’s no one I cannot handle! Capture him, break his legs and find out who dares to cause trouble for my Quinton family.”
He convinced himself that Charlie was sent by a business rival, or else how could he know all the details of his car accident?
Several bodyguards swiftly moved in, rushing to block Charlie’s way.
The other two bodyguards approached Jacob, reaching out to seize him forcefully.
Jacob was terrified. He never imagined he would get into such trouble simply by going out to buy antiques.
Just as one bodyguard was about to grab Jacob, Charlie’s expression hardened. He kicked aside a strongman standing in his way and raced toward Jacob, punching the bodyguard squarely in the face.
“Bang!”
The bodyguard was about to take hold of Jacob when Charlie’s punch connected, causing him to bleed from his nose and stagger backward, covering his face.
When another bodyguard witnessed Charlie springing into action, he swiftly pulled out an electric baton and swung it violently at Charlie.
“Ah!” Jacob screamed in fear, “Charlie, move!”
Before he could finish, Charlie effortlessly dodged the incoming strike and seized the bodyguard’s left wrist, applying just enough force.
“Bang!”
The bodyguard with the electric baton was slammed to the ground before he could react, grimacing in pain and unable to rise.
Jacob was speechless, nearly failing to recognize the young man standing in front of him as his son-in-law.
How could he be so skilled?
Charlie bent down, retrieved the electric baton from the ground, weighed it in his hand, and declared, “Who’s next? Let’s take them all on at once.”
The crowd fell silent, their eyes locked onto Charlie.
Zachary was equally astonished, staring wide-eyed at Charlie and muttering, “Brother, you’re incredible!”
He was grateful he hadn’t angered Charlie earlier otherwise, he might have been felled by that overhand blow.
Jacob snapped back to reality and exclaimed in amazement, “Charlie, where did you learn that martial arts?”
“This…” Charlie smiled and replied, “Dad, when Claire was at work, I often stayed home out of boredom to watch TV. There’s a fighting show that airs every morning I picked it up from there.”
In reality, Charlie had been practicing Wing Chun, boxing, and wrestleing since he was a child, mastering its most authentic forms. After all, the famous Wen was a descendant of the Wade family and the greatest of these arts!
However, to conceal his identity, he naturally couldn’t divulge this to his father-in-law.
Moreover, what surprised Charlie even more was that he felt his strength had significantly increased!
His combat prowess had multiplied compared to his usual self.
It seemed this was the effect of the “Apocalyptic Book.”
The pebbles filled with reiki he had just handled had entered his body, instantly enhancing his overall physical condition!
The crowd gasped.
Such formidable skills surpassed even the martial arts masters at the Aurous Hill City martial arts hall, and he had learned them just by watching TV!
This self-taught talent was astonishing!
“I learned it from TV!” Zachary’s eyes widened in disbelief. A skill so incredible, obtained from watching television? He quickly beamed at Charlie in admiration, “Brother, which channel did you watch? I want to learn, too.”
Charlie glanced at Zachary and replied casually, “CCTV Sports Channel, quack!”

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 32
Loreen Thomas and Doris Young of Emgrand Group have confirmed their intention to join the company tomorrow.
After leaving Heaven Springs, Charlie dropped her off at her hotel and said goodbye before departing.
Loreen remained in shock from the dinner, lost in thought about her future prospects.
On the surface, her trip to Aurous Hill was for work at Emgrand Group, but beneath that lay a family obligation.
Her father had told her about a closely guarded secret: the Wade family, the foremost clan in Eastcliff, had located their missing Young Master from many years ago and purchased Emgrand Group for him to manage.
This meant that the Young Master of the Wade family was in Aurous Hill and he held the position of chairman at Emgrand Group.
While the Thomas family was also a prestigious family in Eastcliff, they were overshadowed by many formidable competitors and ranked as a second-tier family, far below the Wade family.
Consequently, the Thomas family hoped Loreen could find a way to connect with the Young Master of the Wade family before his identity was revealed. If she could form a relationship with him and facilitate a union between their families, it would be a tremendous advantage.
Although Loreen felt some aversion to this arrangement, the weight of revitalizing her family was a responsibility she could not ignore.
Her journey to Aurous Hill had been primarily to work at Emgrand Group, yet her unspoken goal was to find a way to reach out to the elusive chairman and capture his attention.
Loreen certainly possessed the beauty and elegance that defined the upper class in Eastcliff.
She believed that with her looks, intelligence, capabilities, and virtuous character, she would be able to catch the eye of the Wade family’s son.
If she successfully married him, it would mean a remarkable revival for the Thomas family, elevating them to the ranks of first-class families in Eastcliff!
With these thoughts racing through her mind, she felt a surge of excitement about her joining the company tomorrow.
Simultaneously, she was curious about the mysterious Young Master of the Wade family.
She found herself wondering how old he might be and what he looked like. Was he refined, tall, and handsome?
Unable to contain her curiosity, she took out her phone and opened a video app.
She selected a video that had garnered tens of millions of views, one that featured the moment Charlie slapped the sales director in the face with cash at Emerald Court.
Having analyzed this video previously, she recognized that it took place in Aurous Hill, coinciding perfectly with the recent news about the Wade family’s eldest son being found.
Thus, she speculated that the wealthy figure in the video was likely the eldest son of the Wade family, meaning he was the chairman of Emgrand Group.
She scrutinized the outline of the seemingly godlike rich man in the video, deep in thought.
From this grainy footage, it appeared the internet sensation was probably in his twenties, tall and lean, though his face remained obscured.
However, his physique seemed to be quite impressive, comparable to those tall male idols in Korea.
With such a figure, she reasoned, his face couldn’t possibly be unattractive!
Yet, a peculiar feeling washed over Loreen, why did this man remind her a bit of Charlie?
However, upon reflection, that seemed far-fetched.
Charlie was the son-in-law of the Wilson family, and how strong could the Wilson family truly be? They were nowhere near the level of the Wade family. If Charlie were genuinely the first son of the Wade family, how could he be confined to the modest means of the Wilson family? It appeared she was just overthinking!
……
The following day, Loreen arrived at Emgrand Group bright and early.
Vice Chairman Doris Young personally facilitated her onboarding.
Doris took her to the administrative department, explained her job responsibilities, and said, “Loreen, if you have any questions in the future, feel free to approach me directly or stop by my office.”
Loreen nodded appreciatively and cautiously inquired, “Vice Chairman Young, do you happen to know if I might have a chance to meet the chairman? Since I’ll be managing the company’s administrative affairs, it’s important I’m acquainted with him to avoid any unintentional oversights.”
Doris Young suddenly felt a twinge of caution.
Charlie had instructed her just the day before to keep a closer eye on Loreen, and given her immediate pursuit of the chairman’s presence, she seemed rather intriguing.
What could this beautiful woman’s intentions be in coming to Emgrand Group?
She replied to Loreen, “Our chairman seldom visits the office, but if he does come in, I’ll be sure to inform him and I will let you know if he wishes to see you.”
Loreen felt a flicker of disappointment but still managed a smile, saying, “Thank you, Vice Chairman Young!”
Doris Young returned to her office and reported the occurrence to Charlie.
Upon hearing that Loreen was eager to meet him right after starting at the company, Charlie grew even more cautious.
This woman was clearly here for him.
What could she want?
Was she trying to get close to him for some ulterior motive or perhaps to entice him?
Regardless of her intentions, Charlie felt a surge of discomfort.
So, he resolved to minimize any contact with Loreen and ensure she remained oblivious to his true identity!
……
That evening, after Loreen’s first day at the company, Charlie’s wife Claire made special arrangements at a high-end hotel to treat her to dinner.
As Claire’s husband, Charlie felt obliged to join her.
This left him feeling somewhat despondent.
Just as he was planning to maintain his distance from Loreen, he found himself again obliged to dine with her that evening.
However, despite his mood, he prepared himself as they headed to the restaurant together.
As they arrived, Charlie discovered that Claire had booked a table at the Sky Garden of the Shangri-La Hotel!
The Sky Garden banquet hall is typically reserved for high-profile guests and does not offer private service. However, it appeared Charlie had managed to make this unprecedented reservation for their anniversary.
Today marked just three days until their wedding anniversary.
An enormous and attention-grabbing notice was placed at the Shangri-La Hotel’s entrance that read, “The Sky Garden is reserved for a distinguished guest in three days. No guests will be permitted at that time. We appreciate your understanding!”
Everyone who laid eyes on this announcement was taken aback!
Someone had reserved the Shangri-La Sky Garden?
This was never typically an available service!
Rumor had it that several influential leaders children had attempted to book wedding receptions there but were turned away without exception.
Who on earth had the clout to reserve the entire Sky Garden at Shangri-La?
Claire also noticed the striking notice and exclaimed, “Oh my, the Sky Garden is really booked? That’s simply unbelievable!”
Charlie chuckled and said, “What’s so unbelievable about it? It’s a banquet hall, after all. Isn’t booking it part of its purpose?”
“You don’t get it,” Claire replied earnestly. “This Shangri-La is not just a local business; it’s a world-renowned top-tier hotel chain. Their Sky Garden is a unique feature. It caters exclusively to high-end guests. If it were open to the public, one big shot could book it today, another tomorrow, and the other high-end guests would be unable to use it, so they simply reserve it for VIPs.”
Pausing, Claire sighed, “I wonder what sort of person managed to secure this venue, it’s quite impressive!”
Charlie playfully smiled and said, “Perhaps he’s a devoted husband planning a wedding for his wife!”
Claire responded with delight, “A wedding for his wife here? He must truly cherish her and I can only imagine how happy she must be!”
