The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 65
Graham was taken aback by Charlie’s words. The destruction of his family? Wasn’t that a price too steep to pay?
Graham’s complexion turned ashen and he let out a long sigh. “I have lived my life without wrongdoing, performing good deeds every day. How did it come to this?”
Charlie smiled and said, “Then, if I recall correctly, your desire to purchase that piece of topaz was related to this issue as well?”
Graham nodded. In the past year, he had exhausted all possible solutions without any success until he met Charlie.
Initially, he thought Charlie was simply knowledgeable about appraising treasures and didn’t pay him much mind.
But today, Charlie’s pointed revelation of the evil spirit made it clear that he was far from ordinary. The salvation of the Quinton family might very well lie with him.
Immediately, he clasped his fists toward Charlie and pleaded, “Master Wade, please help us!”
Afterward, he leaned in and whispered urgently to his assistant, who promptly turned and left.
Charlie smiled faintly and remarked, “Graham, you should address your family’s problems on your own.”
He had no personal ties to the Quinton family and had only met Graham once before.
Moreover, Adam, who stood before him, had previously offended him.
Beside them, the panicked Aurora was indeed striking. She possessed an impressive figure and a fiery temperament, almost like a feisty pepper. But what did her looks matter to him? First of all, she wasn’t his wife and secondly, they had no intimate relationship.
Thus, Charlie had no compelling reason to assist the Quinton family.
Yet, Graham was determined not to squander this great chance to save his family. He immediately bowed again and said, “I implore you, please offer us some guidance!”
Graham gazed at Charlie almost with reverence, bowing deeply in a gesture of humility.
But Charlie remained unmoved.
Seeing Charlie’s indifference, Graham made a decisive choice and knelt on the ground.
At that moment, Aurora also knelt without hesitation. She knelt before Charlie and pleaded passionately, “Master Wade, I spoke rashly and angered you earlier. Please forgive me. The fate of my Quinton family lies in your hands. I beg you for your help!”
Afterward, she turned to Adam, who appeared stunned, and slapped him, exclaiming, “Adam! This is all your fault! You brought that bizarre, cursed item home and now you’ve jeopardized our family and offended Master Wade. Come on, bow to Master Wade! Plead with him to assist us!”
Adam was genuinely terrified! He never anticipated that the Quinton family’s misfortunes stemmed from that piece of jade. Now, he couldn’t evade responsibility, especially after provoking Master Wade, the only one capable of resolving their issues. He feared he would return home only to be viciously punished by his family.
Thus, he immediately knelt before Charlie, repeatedly bowing his head as he begged, “Master, I was wrong! I was blind to my own fate, failing to recognize what was truly valuable. Please forgive me and help our Quinton family. I bow to you…”
Saying this, Adam struck his forehead against the concrete floor with a resounding thud.
At that moment, Graham’s assistant returned, presenting him with a gift box.
Graham quickly accepted it and handed it to Charlie respectfully, saying humbly, “Master Wade, this is the most exquisite jade bracelet from Emerald Court, worth over 6 million. Please accept this gift, Master Wade!”
Charlie glanced coolly at the gift in Graham’s hand. It was a premium jade bracelet made from high-quality ice-type jadeite, clear and translucent like glass.
Although it didn’t surpass the jade necklace he had previously gifted to his wife Claire, as a bracelet, it was nearly unparalleled!
The crowd watched in awe, fully aware that this bracelet was the most expensive piece in Emerald Court, priced at six million.
Graham had indeed asked his assistant to procure it as a gift for Charlie, demonstrating the depth of his desire to win Charlie’s favor!
What kind of person was this Charlie?
Charlie’s father-in-law was equally astonished. He had never witnessed anything quite as remarkable in his lifetime…
Charlie looked at the jade bracelet but didn’t take it. Instead, he turned his gaze back to Graham and asked with a smile, “Graham, what makes you so certain that I can resolve this evil spirit?”
Graham replied earnestly, “If Master Wade can’t handle it, then I fear no one else in the world can!”
Charlie smiled faintly. Graham’s words held a grain of truth. He really did possess a method to deal with it. The “Apocalyptic Book” had documented this form of evil spirit and the means to dispel it was clearly outlined as well.
Charlie casually took the jade bracelet in hand. He envisioned how beautiful it would look adorning his wife Claire’s wrist.
As for Graham?
Truthfully, he wasn’t a bad person.
Disciplining the family’s younger members was acceptable and their sins weren’t beyond redemption.
Since he had ardently pleaded for help, Charlie decided it wouldn’t hurt to assist him.
Thus, Charlie said, “Alright, since you’ve beseeched me, I will grant you this favor.”
Seeing Charlie accept the bracelet, Graham was elated and bowed deeply once more, “Master Wade, the Quinton family holds a significant position in Aurous Hill City. Once the evil spirit has been dispelled, should you require assistance from the Quinton family in the future, we will certainly do our utmost to help!”
The onlookers erupted in shocked murmurs, all astounded by the audacity of the Quinton family!
Charlie thought for a moment and replied, “In that case, I will assist you this once. It’s also the destiny of your Quinton family that is at stake.”
Graham immediately knelt deeply, filled with excitement as he exclaimed, “Master Wade, I implore you to help us!”
Charlie requested a yellow paper talisman and some cinnabar from the nearby antique shop, made a few strokes on the paper and then handed it to Graham.
“Place this talisman on the jade plug, take it home and burn incense daily. After 49 days, the evil spirit will be entirely exorcised. During these 49 days, your family must refrain from killing or bloodshed and all members should bathe and burn incense daily. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Master, I will adhere to your wise words!”
Graham accepted the talisman with both hands, expressing deep gratitude to Charlie. He carefully affixed the talisman onto the jade plug and wrapped it in yellow paper.
At that moment, as the jade plug was wrapped, Adam suddenly felt a sense of lightness in his body. The irritability that had plagued him seemed to fade away, leaving him feeling refreshed.
Graham also sensed changes within himself; he felt clearer and more at ease than before!
He recognized that Charlie’s method was effective!
This realization elated him!
Fortunately, he had found Charlie otherwise, the Quinton family would have faced obliteration after today!
Zachary stood nearby, equally astonished. Once Graham finished, he hurriedly approached Charlie with a bashful smile, bowing as he said, “Brother, could you help me assess my prospects? When do you think I might find a beautiful wife?”
Charlie frowned, shaking his head as he replied, “If you wish to marry someone beautiful, you should first consider getting a facelift.”
Aurora chuckled from the side.
Indeed, Zachary was too unattractive it was hard to believe any girl would be interested in him! But Charlie was undeniably handsome…

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 14
Seeing such an extravagant ceremony, Jane Wolfe was taken aback, wondering if the impoverished man had actually called in some favors. But then she dismissed the thought—there was no way someone like him could possibly know someone this influential.
Stephen Thompson stepped out of the third Rolls-Royce and walked into the Emerald Court, prompting Jane Wolfe to quickly stand and greet him. However, Stephen Thompson ignored her entirely and made a beeline for Charlie.
“Master, I’ve arrived with the funds,” Stephen Thompson announced, gesturing for the bodyguard behind him to enter the Emerald Court. The bodyguard placed a box filled with cash on the ground and opened it.
It was overflowing with stacks of bright red cash!
Gasps of shock erupted from the crowd around them.
That arrogant loser… No way! What he said is actually true!
Oh my goodness, who is this powerful person?
Many onlookers took out their phones to record the astonishing scene, not wanting to miss a moment. However, Stephen Thompson’s bodyguards swiftly cleared the area, leaving only a glimpse of Charlie’s back for the cameras.
Charlie pointed to the cash on the ground and asked Jane Wolfe, “Haven’t you ever seen this much money before? How about now?”
Jane Wolfe was so struck with fear that she almost lost her composure. She nodded timidly, “I’ve seen it, I have seen it…”
Charlie then turned to Stephen Thompson, saying, “I want to see the manager of this store.”
Stephen Thompson nodded, pulled out his phone, searched briefly, and made the call.
As soon as the call connected, he berated the person on the other end, “You fool, this is Stephen Thompson! I’m in Emerald Court right now, and I give you one minute to get here! Otherwise, I’ll have Emerald Court set ablaze! And believe me, I’ll break your legs!”
Jane Wolfe’s face turned white as she watched Stephen Thompson in fear.
Is this man really that powerful?
Her boss was a well-known figure in Aurous Hill, highly regarded in the underworld. Who would dare to confront him? Who would be bold enough to talk to him like that?
Less than a minute later, a middle-aged, overweight man appeared, rushing from the back office. Upon seeing Stephen Thompson, he hurried over and said, “Mr. Tang, I didn’t know you were coming to my shop! I would have welcomed you properly!”
Stephen Thompson gave the man a hard slap across the face and said angrily, “You are so arrogant! Your employee dared to neglect our Young Master. Are you tired of living?”
Stephen Thompson was aware that the Young Master had faced a lot of indignities over the past decade. Seeing a clerk mistreat him aggravated his irritation.
The middle-aged man, although initially taken aback by the slap, now felt a rising panic as the implications sank in.
Stephen Thompson’s Young Master? Oh my gosh, if Stephen Thompson is a dragon, then his Young Master must be like a deity!
Trembling with fear, he glanced at Charlie, who appeared quite ordinary beside Stephen Thompson, yet he was indeed the Young Master of this powerful family!
Realizing this, the middle-aged man panicked even more and hurriedly addressed Charlie, saying, “Young Master, I sincerely apologize! I beg your forgiveness!”
Then, he turned with a furious expression and shouted, “Who is the blind fool that offended the Young Master? Step forward!”
All the other salespeople turned their attention to Jane Wolfe.
Quickly, Jane Wolfe tried to retreat.
But the middle-aged man charged over, grabbing Jane Wolfe by the collar and slapping her hard across the face while cursing, “You foolish woman! How dare you offend the Young Master?”
Jane Wolfe fell to the ground, crying, “Boss, I’m sorry! I was blind! Please forgive me this time!”
“Forgive you?” The middle-aged man scowled, yanking her hair back and delivering a powerful punch to her face.
After punch after punch, her face was covered in blood. “What? You want to kill me? I’ll be the one to end you!”
Jane Wolfe’s teeth were shattered, her nose, freshly done, was broken too, and she was left bloodied.
Sobbing and in distress, she broke free from the middle-aged man’s grip and crawled to Charlie, clutching his legs, and cried, “Master, I truly know I was wrong! I promise I’ll never look down on anyone again. Please forgive me!”
Charlie replied coldly, “You brought this upon yourself.”
The middle-aged man was terrified when he saw her grabbing Charlie’s legs and rushed over, kicking her in the head while cursing, “Do you think you can touch the Young Master’s legs? I’ll take you down!”
With that kick, Jane Wolfe fell unconscious.
The middle-aged man ordered the security guard beside him, “Get rid of this worthless creature! Throw her in the trash behind the building!”
“Yes, boss!” The security guards wasted no time and quickly lifted Jane Wolfe, whose face was smeared with blood, and took her away.
Charlie turned to the middle-aged man and said, “My wife is interested in that jade piece, please wrap it up for me.”
The middle-aged man quickly nodded in agreement, “Of course! I’ll wrap it up right away!”
Charlie took out his black card and instructed, “Charge this to my card.”
Then he told Stephen Thompson, “You can take the cash back.”
The middle-aged man added nervously, “Young Master, if you like this jade, I’d like to gift it to you!”
Charlie replied, “I don’t need your charity.”
The middle-aged man pleaded, “Master, just consider it a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it!”
Stephen Thompson interjected, “Master, if he insists on giving it to you as an apology, you should accept it. Otherwise, he won’t rest easy tonight.”
Charlie pondered for a moment and then nodded slightly, “Alright, I accept, thank you.”
Relief washed over the middle-aged man as Charlie accepted the jade necklace.
If Charlie had refused, he genuinely feared Stephen Thompson would take matters into his own hands. With his influence, he could easily make him vanish without a trace.
At this point, Stephen Thompson asked Charlie, “Do you want me to escort you out?”
“No, it’s fine,” Charlie waved his hand dismissively. “Where’s the back door? I can find my way.”
The spectators were completely astonished by what they had witnessed!
Several Rolls-Royces had delivered 13 million in cash just to buy a single piece of jade.
In turn, the boss of Emerald Court was too intimidated to accept it!
Who exactly was that seemingly unremarkable young man?
Numerous individuals uploaded videos of the event online, where they quickly went viral.
People dubbed this mysterious figure “the super-rich heir,” “the domineering CEO,” “the god-level wealthy man,” and even initiated a “find the god-level wealthy man” movement, attracting countless participants.
Fortunately, during the video shoot, onlookers had been cleared out by bodyguards, leaving Charlie’s image unclear and making it impossible to use as a basis for identification.

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 88
One hundred million was spent for a giant clam.
While everyone else deemed Charlie insane, he remained unfazed by their opinions.
On the way home, Charlie explained the auction to Jacob, clarifying that the one hundred million was authorized by the Quinton family, ensuring his father-in-law wouldn’t feel overwhelming fear and panic this time.
Upon arriving home, Charlie immediately started examining the giant clam, with Claire still at work.
The clam was as large as a wheel, its golden and smooth shell polished to perfection.
With a firm push, Charlie broke it into several pieces.
He picked up one piece to inspect it closely.
Sure enough, three white beads were revealed within the thick shell.
These were the essence of the giant clam, known as the Holy Pearl of the Ocean.
Giant clams are considered one of Buddhism’s seven treasures, and the pearls they produce are especially rare and valuable.
Only shellfish that have lived over a hundred years and possess a spiritual essence can create these pearls, which form by absorbing the ocean’s essence.
The Holy Pearl of the Ocean is excellent for refining tools and is hard to come by, which is why Charlie decided to spend a fortune to acquire it.
Charlie discovered a total of three Sea Spirit Pearls from the giant clam, which was quite satisfying.
He then took out the blood dragon lightning wood and used techniques from the “Apocalyptic Book” to create hand gestures infused with Reiki.
As soon as the hand gestures made contact, they unleashed the strongest thunder energy contained within.
When the Holy Pearl of the Ocean encountered this thunder energy, it emitted a faint golden glow, swiftly absorbing the released aura.
Charlie then picked up the Holy Pearl of the Ocean to begin the refinement process for a magical weapon.
Before long, the Holy Pearl of the Ocean started to take shape in his hands.
Next, he retrieved the pearl necklace he had purchased at the auction earlier, selected some pearls from it, and combined them with the Holy Pearl of the Ocean to ultimately create a bracelet.
The remaining giant clam shells were also of top quality for refining.
He chose one of the shells and refined it into a “Stun Talisman,” intending to gift it to Graham.
The stun Talisman, crafted from giant clam shell, was fused with thunder energy specifically meant to dispel evil spirits and exorcise negativity, which would be effective for the Quinton family in dealing with that malevolent force.
After completing these tasks, Charlie noticed several giant clam fragments remained. Seeing that it was still early, he took the fragments to attempt refining a “Thunder Order.”
As recorded in the “Apocalyptic Book,” this Thunder Order is a low-level magical tool designed mainly for summoning thunder and rain.
However, by adding the thunder energy from the blood dragon thunder wood, he enhanced its effectiveness. It can now be used to dispel ghosts, suppress evil forces and even for offensive tactics.
Just as he finished refining the Thunder Order, he heard noises coming from downstairs.
His wife was back.
Charlie quickly tucked the remaining clam fragments beneath the bed and stepped out of the bedroom, holding the newly refined Sea Spirit Pearls.
When he looked up, he saw Claire in the living room, talking to his mother-in-law, Elaine, with a look of exasperation on her face.
Charlie approached and saw Elaine waving her wrist. On it was the jade bracelet Graham had initially gifted him.
Elaine exclaimed, “Claire, this bracelet is simply delightful! When I wear it out, everyone compliments me on it. I feel so proud!”
Claire replied with a hint of frustration, “Mom, didn’t Charlie leave this bracelet at home a few days ago? Why did you wear it without mentioning anything? I thought it was lost!”
Elaine shot back, “I’m your mother! What’s wrong with me wearing it? Let me enjoy it for a few more days and show it off!”
Watching the playful squabble between mother and daughter, Charlie quickly interjected, “Claire, if Mom likes it, let her keep wearing it. I made a new bracelet to give to you.”
“What bracelet?” Elaine exclaimed, as if she had discovered a hidden treasure.
But when she saw it was merely a string of shell beads, she instantly handed it to Claire with a huff, saying, “Another worthless trinket, is it?”
Claire accepted it, slipped it onto her wrist and asked, “Did you make this yourself?”
“Yes,” Charlie confirmed, “This shell pearl bracelet promotes calmness and aids sleep, while also warding off evil spirits and providing protection. I didn’t have much time today, so it’s a bit rough around the edges. I’ll craft you something finer if I get the chance.”
Before he could finish, Claire smiled warmly, saying, “Thank you, I really like it.”
“As long as you love it,” Charlie replied, feeling relieved.
The jade necklace he had previously given Claire was quite valuable, yet she seldom wore it. She typically favored simplicity and paid little mind to gold or silver jewelry, avoiding anything too flashy.
But Claire appeared genuinely fond of this giant clam bracelet.
Elaine, noticing Claire’s enthusiasm for the simple bracelet, muttered discontentedly, “It’s neither gold nor jade, just a string of worthless shells. What good is it?”
Charlie smiled and chose not to engage. It was probably best that Claire remained unaware of its true worth, if she knew this magical bracelet could be sold for at least ten billion, she’d likely reconsider wearing it.
After gifting the bracelet to Claire, Charlie went downstairs, found a local courier and sent both the stun Talisman and the black card to Graham.
This way, he felt satisfied with his actions.
……
At the Quinton Family residence,
Mr. Yaleman was seated in the main hall, his face dark and silent. He had come to Aurous Hill specifically for the giant clam, which housed the Holy Pearl of the Ocean, priceless for crafting a magical instrument.
Yet, he hadn’t anticipated Charlie appearing randomly, ruining his plans and igniting his fury!
Standing nearby, Adam held himself rigidly, his hands at his sides.
The distinguished Mystery Court was well-known and the Quinton family treated Mr. Yaleman with utmost respect.
Graham smiled nervously, saying, “I didn’t expect Mr. Yaleman to visit my humble abode. The Quinton family is indeed fortunate. What brings you here, Master?”
Mr. Yaleman slowly sipped his tea, set the cup down, and replied, “I ran into Adam at the auction, he invited me to assess your family’s fortunes.”
Graham initially intended to reprimand Adam for his impatience, but upon seeing that Steven had invited the esteemed Mr. Yaleman, he tempered his irritation.
“Mr. Yaleman, please, guide us!”
Mr. Yaleman nodded, saying, “If my intuition is correct, the Quinton family has faced misfortune over the past two years. It seems someone in your family is harboring an ominous presence. Last year brought a bloody disaster and as for this year…”
He glanced around dramatically before sighing, “I believe your family’s fortune has reached its end. If this trend continues, negative energy will envelop this house, leading to the Quinton family’s collapse and eventual extinction!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Graham’s face grew pale and he hastily replied, “Mr. Yaleman, you truly are a Master of the Mystery Court. The Quinton family has indeed faced bad luck. Please, assist us!”
The rest of the Quinton family looked on in shock!
Mr. Yaleman was remarkably insightful, his observations were spot-on.
While waiting anxiously for Charlie’s response, Graham was eager to find relief.
The arrival of the renowned Mr. Yaleman felt like a lifeline, prompting him to ask, “Mr. Yaleman, do you have any solutions?”
“Indeed, there is a solution,” Mr. Yaleman replied slowly before suddenly furrowing his brow, “However, I’ve sensed a fraud sowing rumors and misleading people within your household, disrupting the feng shui and hastening the Quinton family’s demise. If this individual continues their deceit, your entire family may face extinction within six months!”

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 20
When Wendell Jones fled, Harold had just arrived, accompanied by his sister Wendy and her fiancé Gerald.
Next to Gerald stood a young man dressed in luxurious clothing, who bore a slight resemblance to Gerald White.
Upon noticing Wendell Jones, Harold exclaimed, “Hey, Wendell! When I walked in just now, I heard something serious happened with your family. Is that true?”
Wendell Jones, overwhelmed with despair, pushed Harold away and murmured, “It’s over, it’s over, it’s all over…”
Concerned, Harold asked, “Young Master Jones, what’s wrong?”
Wendell Jones shook his head in fear, unwilling to share anything. He knew that if he said something inappropriate, it could lead to dire consequences.
In a state of despair, Wendell freed himself from Harold’s grasp and ran out.
Harold watched him leave and sighed, “I guess the Jones family is really done for. Wow, that was fast! Everything seemed fine yesterday, and now they’re bankrupt today!”
Afterward, Harold spotted Charlie and Claire and had an idea. He hurriedly greeted Claire, saying, “Claire, let me introduce you to this esteemed guest. This is Gerald’s cousin, Kevin, the eldest son of the White family.”
“Kevin, meet my cousin, Claire,” Harold added with a flattering smile.
Since Kevin’s arrival, he had his eyes on Claire. Upon hearing Harold, he quickly extended his hand and said, “Hello, Claire. I’ve heard the daughter of the Wilson family is beautiful, and today, I see she certainly lives up to her reputation.”
Charlie’s eyes narrowed in dissatisfaction. He was tired of men constantly flocking to his beautiful wife, and it was becoming increasingly irritating.
Taking the lead, he reached out, shook Kevin’s hand, and said coldly, “Hello, I’m Claire’s husband.”
Surprised, Kevin scrutinized Charlie and his contempt was apparent. He withdrew his hand and remarked indifferently, “I didn’t realize Claire was married. She’s a flower in a pile of manure…”
Wendy rushed to explain, “Kevin, this guy is just a loser who married into our Wilson family. He has no job and no real skills!”
Then she playfully winked at Kevin, saying, “Kevin, once I marry Gerald, we’ll all be family, so everyone should get to know each other better…”
Understanding her implications, Kevin smiled and responded, “Miss Claire is as beautiful as a fairy. I’d love to interact with her more.”
Just then, Charlie spotted his mother-in-law Elaine and father-in-law Jacob approaching.
As Elaine neared, she hurriedly told Claire, “Claire, did you hear? The Jones family has gone bankrupt!”
“Really?” Claire replied, surprised. “When did that happen?”
“Just now!” Elaine lamented. “I thought that once you divorced Charlie, you’d be able to be with Wendell Jones, but now, it seems there’s no chance…”
Charlie felt a wave of frustration. Was his mother-in-law really that clueless? Did she not recognize the true wealthy son-in-law standing right in front of her?
Upon seeing Elaine, Kevin took the opportunity to introduce himself, saying, “You must be Claire’s mother, right? Hello, auntie! I’m Kevin, Gerald’s cousin. You’re so beautiful; it’s no wonder you have such a lovely daughter like Claire.”
When Elaine realized Kevin was Gerald White’s cousin and a rich heir, her eyes brightened instantly. “Yes, I’m Claire’s mother! Are you friends with Claire?”
Kevin nodded, smiling. “Yes, we’re friends, but we just met today!”
Elaine beamed with joy and urged everyone, “Everybody, find a seat quickly! Don’t stand around. Mr. White, our Claire is beautiful and pure; you young people should definitely spend more time together in the future…”
“Mom!” Claire interjected with irritation, trying to stop her mother from continuing.
Elaine was about to respond, but Claire pulled her attention to the stage.
At that moment, Lady Wilson appeared under the spotlight!
Excitedly surveying the room, she stepped up to the microphone and said with a smile, “First of all, on behalf of the Wilson family, I welcome all of our friends and partners to our banquet.”
“Now, let us welcome Ms. Doris Young, the vice chairman of the Emgrand Group.”
The spotlight instantly shifted to the front row.
Doris Young, adorned in a black evening gown that accentuated her perfect figure, shone like a fairy under the lights. All the men at the event were irresistibly drawn to her.
Vice Chairman of Emgrand Group! A rare beauty! Each of these titles was enough to capture everyone’s attention.
As Doris stood, she merely nodded at the crowd, her gaze lingering on Charlie for a brief moment before moving on.
Lady Wilson continued, “Today, I want to extend our gratitude to Emgrand Group for trusting the Wilson family with such an important project. We will certainly do our utmost to live up to their expectations.”
“Additionally, I would like to introduce an outstanding member of our younger generation. Without him, our cooperation with Emgrand would not have been possible. After discussions, we have decided to nominate him as the director of our Wilson Group, and he will oversee the collaboration with Emgrand Group!”
Excited, Elaine exclaimed, “Oh, Claire! It’s your turn to go on stage!”
Though Claire was prepared, she felt a wave of nervousness.
Charlie offered her an encouraging smile.
Harold, noticing Claire’s excitement, couldn’t help but smirk.
Lady Wilson then took to the podium and cheerfully announced, “Let us welcome the new director of the Wilson Group, Harold!”
Claire was frozen, her disbelief evident as she watched Harold stride onto the stage with a smug expression.
Charlie’s demeanor changed instantly; he felt betrayed.
What a treacherous act, discarding Claire without a second thought after using her!
Claire’s eyes filled with tears as she quickly stood up and ran out, her heart heavy with despair.
Charlie observed her departure, his expression darkening.
Are they really bullying my wife? They have no idea who they’re messing with.
Meanwhile, Harold stood proudly on stage, saying, “Thank you for the trust placed in me. I will work diligently as your director and ensure the success of the project assigned to us by the Emgrand Group!”
Lady Wilson nodded in approval and continued, “There is one more special announcement for tonight’s banquet. We are fortunate to have Mr. Wade, the new chairman of Emgrand Group, here with us! Please offer Chairman Wade a warm round of applause!”
The audience erupted in applause!
All the guests had come tonight for the new chairman of Emgrand Group!
Everyone was eager to witness his presence!
Speculations ran rampant as people whispered, trying to guess who would soon stand out.
Some murmured, “I suspect the mysterious chairman of Emgrand Group is the same super-rich individual who recently caused a stir at Emerald Court online!”
“I believe it’s highly likely! That mysterious figure must not have any ties to the Aurous Hill circle!”
“My goodness! If that’s the case, the chairman of the Emgrand Group must be the most powerful affluent figure in Aurous Hill right now!”
“I can hardly wait to see his true self!”
As the applause roared and countless eyes eagerly focused on the stage, Charlie slowly rose, his expression cold…

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 23
The call was connected without delay.
As soon as Elaine spoke, she said, “Hello, is this Kevin White? Yes, I’m Claire’s mother…”
Since Kevin White had seen Claire at the banquet, he was immediately captivated and couldn’t forget her.
He worried that he might never get a chance to approach Claire, so when her mother called him, he seized the opportunity.
He assumed that Elaine was facing some trouble, and naturally, he wouldn’t miss the chance to be of assistance.
Politely, he responded, “Auntie Elaine, is there something troubling you?”
“Yes, there’s something I need your help with,” Elaine quickly replied. “Actually Kevin, me along with some old friends, invested all our savings in financial products from a company called Axel. But now they’ve stopped us from withdrawing our funds. Can you help me recover our money?”
Upon hearing this, Kevin felt a surge of excitement; it was his opportunity to demonstrate his capabilities. “Auntie, don’t worry! I’ll come over right away and definitely help you resolve this issue!”
Elaine was thrilled and quickly expressed her gratitude, saying, “Thank you so much!”
After hanging up, she turned to Charlie and expressed her frustration, saying, “Some people are useless and can’t be depended on. Besides shouting slogans, what else can they offer?”
Charlie silently scoffed at her words. His mother-in-law was truly shallow and shortsighted.
Asking Kevin for help?
This company had swindled at least tens of millions, if not more. Anyone bold enough to pull off such a scam likely had a powerful backing, possibly even connections to the underworld. How could Kevin possibly make them return the stolen money?
The White family was quite ordinary. Since their collaboration with the Emgrand Group ended, their influence had diminished even further. Given the White family’s background, they were practically powerless against such substantial financial fraud.
In reality, this minor issue could be easily resolved by simply contacting Isaac Cameron from Shangri-La.
After all, he was the Wade family’s representative in Aurous Hill. Any entrepreneur or influential figure in the area would have to treat him with respect.
However, his mother-in-law was incredibly infuriating. Since she trusted Kevin, let her rely on him!
When others saw Elaine on the phone, they immediately gathered around, eager to find out if she had managed to engage someone influential to assist them.
With a proud smile, Elaine told the group, “Don’t worry, I’ve asked the eldest son of the White family to help. He’s very capable, and I’m confident it will be easy for him to recover the money!”
Someone gasped, “The eldest son of the White family? Elaine, you’re amazing! How did you get such a powerful person to assist us?”
“Yes! Mr. White must have numerous connections. A few words from him should resolve our issues!”
“Elaine, since you know such an impressive young man, why not have your daughter marry him instead of tying the knot with someone like this?”
Elaine looked at Charlie dismissively and huffed, “Someone like him will be kicked out of our Wilson family sooner or later!”
Charlie kept quiet, planning to observe how Kevin would face defeat.
Soon, a sleek black Porsche rolled up in front of them.
A sharply dressed young man stepped out of the vehicle.
It was Kevin.
The crowd around Elaine sighed in admiration, commenting, “Wow, look at him! This is a true young talent! Who knows which fortunate girl will end up with such a great son-in-law!”
“Absolutely! If my daughter could marry him, I’d die happy!”
“Dream on! Even if you did, he wouldn’t even notice your daughter!”
At that moment, Elaine spotted Kevin and eagerly rushed toward him, exclaiming, “Oh Kevin, you’re finally here! Auntie has been so anxious!”
It was indeed Kevin.
He greeted her with a smile, saying, “Auntie, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting!”
Elaine quickly replied, “Oh, Kevin, you’re too kind! I barely waited ten minutes! You arrived so quickly!”
Kevin returned her smile, “I heard you were in trouble, so I drove over as fast as I could, even running a few red lights along the way.”
Elaine’s pride swelled, but she then expressed concern, “Won’t that be troublesome for running so many red lights?”
“Not at all,” Kevin replied confidently. “The traffic police are all acquaintances. With one call, I can get any violations cleared.”
Then he inquired, “Now, tell me about your situation! How much money have you lost in total?”
Elaine sighed, “I invested over a million dollars, and they promised a $200,000 dividend this month, but now I can’t withdraw my principal.”
Kevin nodded reassuringly, “Don’t worry, leave it to me. I will certainly help you get your money back.”
Just then, he noticed Charlie standing behind Elaine, and his expression shifted slightly.
To his surprise, that frustrating waste was also present.
Since meeting Claire, Kevin had entertained thoughts of getting closer to her. After hearing his brother Gerald White mention that Claire was still single, those thoughts became even stronger.
So, when he spotted Claire’s unambitious husband, he couldn’t help but snicker.
Grinning, he said, “Oh, Charlie is here too. Do you have a plan to help Aunt Elaine recover her investment? Why not give it a shot first? Otherwise, I might steal your thunder later.”
Elaine quickly remarked, “Let him try! What can he do? He just talks a big game and shouts slogans! Kevin, don’t pay any attention to him.”
Kevin nodded, his sarcasm evident, “Since Charlie lacks the ability, I’ll give it a try first!”
Charlie smiled faintly and replied, “Go for it, Mr. White.”
Kevin laughed dismissively. At that moment, the elderly friends surrounding Elaine approached and began to flatter her, saying, “Elaine, we’re all friends here. Please ask this handsome young man to help us! We were robbed of our hard-earned money!”
Elaine replied arrogantly, “Oh, I can’t make that decision; it’s up to Kevin, as he’s doing me a favor and doesn’t know you.”
Others chimed in, pleading, “Oh, Mr. White, please lend us your assistance too!”
Though Kevin looked down upon them, noticing Elaine’s desire to capitalize on small victories, he smiled and said, “Since you’re all Aunt Elaine’s friends, I can help you out.”
With their spirits lifted, Kevin added proudly, “However, since I’m helping you for Aunt Elaine’s sake, you’ll need to give Aunt Elaine 10% of the money I recover for you. Is that acceptable?”
They quickly responded, “No problem! Recovering 90% is far better than getting nothing!”
Upon hearing this, Elaine was absolutely thrilled!
The total amount these friends had lost added up to tens of millions. If Kevin really could help them recover it, wouldn’t that mean millions for her?

The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 44
Julie failed to notice Claire’s expression. With a proud smile, she pulled the man beside her and announced, “Let me introduce you to my husband, Kyle! He is the eldest son of the Sullivan family in Aurous Hill and the heir to their vast fortune!”
Claire nodded politely in response.
Charlie’s expression darkened slightly. He had brought his wife to celebrate their wedding anniversary, but now an unpleasant person had intruded unexpectedly!
Julie continued her bragging, “By the way, my husband is a platinum member here, enjoying many privileges. I bet Charlie can only manage to reserve an ordinary private room, right? How about I see if he can upgrade you to a luxury box later?”
Claire was about to decline the offer, but Charlie intervened with a laugh, saying, “The table I reserved is actually quite nice, let’s skip the upgrade.”
After all, he had booked the sky garden on the top floor for a lavish anniversary celebration for his wife. What’s so special about being a platinum member?
Moreover, the whole Shangri-La Hotel felt like home to him. Taking his wife to a luxury box meant for platinum members would be beneath him.
At that moment, Julie remarked, her tone laced with dissatisfaction, “Claire, just look at your husband, he has no respect for you at all. How do you usually keep him in line?”
As she said this, she clung to Kyle’s arm, resting her head on his shoulder as she smiled sweetly. “Charlie’s behavior doesn’t fit such an elegant occasion. You should have my husband teach him about proper etiquette. After all, he studied in the UK.”
Kyle glanced at Charlie with disdain and chuckled, “Wife, don’t set me such an impossible job. Mr. Wade is quite peculiar. Teaching him etiquette would be quite the task.”
Julie nodded and sighed before turning to Claire, “Honestly, you should think about divorcing him. Living with someone like Charlie for the rest of your life isn’t fair to you!”
Julie spoke bluntly, showing no regard for Claire’s feelings at all.
Claire could no longer tolerate it and replied coldly, “Julie, what’s your problem? It’s not your place to judge my husband.”
Julie covered her mouth with a smirk, “I never liked you in college. How could you be called the school beauty with just a little money from your family? Now that you haven’t married well, you won’t even let me comment?”
Charlie felt a surge of anger upon hearing this.
Julie had been fickle in school, using her average looks to attract wealthy men. Now that she had lucked into marrying into a wealthy family, did she genuinely believe she was a classy lady?
Moreover, she dared to mock his wife? He thought to himself, this was utterly ridiculous!
Fueled by his rising anger, he pulled out his phone and sent a text message to Isaac Cameron, the CEO of Shangri-La.
“In three minutes, I want every bit of information on Julie, daughter-in-law of the Sullivan family in Aurous Hill!”
Julie, noticing Charlie absorbed in his phone, couldn’t help but mock him, “Look at your husband. I’m mocking you and he doesn’t even have the courage to stand up for you. It’s hysterical!”
Just then, Charlie received a text from Isaac Cameron, “Young Master, the details on Julie have been sent to you.”
Charlie glanced at the lengthy message, then turned to Julie and her husband Kyle with a smile. “I’ve come across some interesting information. Interested in hearing it?”
Julie frowned, inquiring, “What information?”
Charlie declared loudly, “Julie, female, 26 years old, graduated from Aurous Hill University. During her freshman year, she had no less than 100 check-in records with eight different men, including Brett Cooley, Jack Pierce and Austin Cannon, among others.”
Julie’s face went pale as she exclaimed, “What nonsense are you spouting! Be careful, or I’ll sue you for defamation!”
Kyle’s expression soured, clearly stunned.
Charlie pressed on, “Oh, this gets even more interesting. You checked into rooms with two men multiple times. Named Ben and Jay Decker brothers, it seems. Were you having a little fun?”
Julie screamed in shock, “You’re lying! This is ridiculous!”
Charlie continued, “Additionally, in your sophomore year, you were supported by the vice president of Herolutions Group at a rate of 30,000 a month. You were with him for three years during which you had four abortions, all done at Aurous Hill Women and Children’s Hospital. The last doctor even reported that you would be infertile for life.”
At this, he curiously asked Kyle, “If I’m not mistaken, you still don’t have any children yet, right?”
Kyle’s face darkened and he glared at Julie, demanding, “What’s the meaning of this?”
Panicking, Julie responded, “Ahao, don’t listen to him! You know I told you it was my first time!”
Charlie grinned, “No need to worry. I can track down her medical records for the membrane repair. You’ll find out for yourself at the hospital.”
Kyle grabbed Julie by the collar and slapped her, shouting, “You still refuse to come clean? If you don’t, I’ll kick you out after I get to the bottom of this and your entire family, including your parents and brother, will be out of my house too! I’ll ensure your whole family ends up on the streets!”
Julie broke down, sobbing on the floor, pleading for mercy, “Husband, please! Don’t be angry. I was young and foolish, I’ve changed and will devote my life to you!”
Charlie added at that moment, “Don’t believe her words! After you married her, she also had several encounters with one of the men who supported her. That guy even filmed their last encounter for keepsakes. If you’d like, I could locate that video and share it with you.”
