The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 51

Raymond was taken aback! He never imagined that the bottle repaired by the egg would turn out to be an even more valuable treasure! He quickly pointed to Charlie and said, “Miss, this gentleman is the one who repaired it…”

Jasmine looked at Charlie, puzzled. He seemed too young to possess knowledge of such a rare cultural relic restoration technique.

With a slight smile, Jasmine asked politely, “I am Jasmine from the Moore family. May I know your name and from which master you learned this craft?”

Jacob, the scared father-in-law, was left speechless upon hearing Jasmine’s name!

The Moore family!

The Moore family is the leading family in Aurous Hill! Although they may not match the super families in Eastcliff in strength, they are indeed a giant that no one in Aurous Hill can compete with!

He certainly didn’t expect to meet the eldest daughter of the Moore family here!

Meanwhile, Charlie had no idea about Jasmine’s identity. Although the Moore family was significant, it was merely a family possessing hundreds of billions in assets. Compared to the Wade family, which boasted trillions, it was quite a difference. So he replied casually, “My name is Charlie, but I don’t have a Master.”

Then Charlie added, “My father-in-law damaged your Jade Spring Vase. I’ve repaired it. Please assess its value to see if any compensation is necessary.”

Jasmine shook her head with a smile, “Since you repaired it, this bottle now holds far greater value than before. Technically, it should be us at Vintage Deluxe who owe you.”

Charlie smiled slightly, “No need to be overly polite. Since everything is resolved, my father-in-law and I should be on our way.”

Jasmine’s eyes brightened as she said with a smile, “Sir, may I know your full name? Could you provide a contact number for future communication?”

As she spoke, Jasmine pulled out her business card and handed it to him, saying, “Sir, here is my business card. Please accept it.”

Charlie nodded, took the card and replied, “My full name is Charlie Wade, but I don’t have a business card.”

“That’s alright.” Jasmine said “Could Mr. Wade share a phone number with me?”

Charlie thought that it would be beneficial to meet new people and Jasmine seemed polite and humble certainly not overbearing. She was quite pleasant to be around.

Thus, he exchanged phone numbers with Jasmine.

Jasmine then asked, “Mr. Wade, would you like me to arrange a car to take you two home?”

Charlie waved his hand and said, “No need, I drove here.”

Jasmine nodded and said, “Then I’ll walk you both out!”

With that, Jasmine escorted them to the BMW 530, watched as Charlie drove away and then slowly returned to Vintage Deluxe.

On the way back, Charlie’s father-in-law couldn’t help but ask him, “Charlie, where did you learn the skill of restoring cultural relics?”

Charlie couldn’t mention that he had discovered a magical “Apocalyptic Book” inside the broken bottle. After all, the book was extraordinary and there was so much content to process that he needed time to digest it. Besides, this was something he couldn’t share with anyone. So he casually replied, “I learned from a janitor at the orphanage.”

His father-in-law nodded appreciatively, sighing, “Thank goodness! If you hadn’t had this ability, I would have had to face some serious consequences…”

He then quickly warned, “By the way! Don’t mention this to your mother or Claire, alright?”

Charlie nodded, “I understand, Dad.”

The father-in-law felt relieved, rubbing his face in frustration and muttering, “If I had known you had this talent, I wouldn’t have run around like a fool. Not only did I exhaust myself, but I also ended up being slapped a few times. What bad luck!”

He then turned to Charlie, “Can you still see the mark on my face?”

Charlie replied, “It’s still a little red.”

The father-in-law grunted, “If your mother asks about it when we get home, just say I accidentally bumped into an electric pole.”

After returning home, Charlie busied himself by heading to the vegetable market to buy ingredients and prepare dinner.

He called his wife, Claire, asking what she’d like to eat, only to find out that she would be discussing a construction plan with Doris Young that evening, during which Doris would treat her to dinner at the Emgrand Group.

Shortly after, Doris Young texted him, saying, “Young Master, construction for the Young miss is about to commence, so she may be quite busy. Please don’t take it personally.”

Charlie, being reasonable, understood the importance of work, so he replied, “The company should provide good meals, please don’t let her settle for boxed lunches.”

Doris Young quickly assured him, “Don’t worry, I’ll arrange for the company’s executive restaurant to prepare the finest dinner for the young lady.”

“That sounds excellent.”

Since his wife wouldn’t be home for dinner, Charlie didn’t dwell on it too much. He bought some ingredients and returned home to cook a simple meal for his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

After dinner, the elderly couple went out to dance at a square.

Charlie was left alone at home, still contemplating the mysterious contents of the “Apocalyptic Book.”

At that moment, he suddenly received a call from Douglas Adams.

Charlie was reluctant to answer the call. He felt that this kid was becoming a bit obsessed. After Charlie had kindly warned him, Douglas had turned hostile, which left Charlie feeling a bit upset.

However, thinking about how pitiable Douglas was, Charlie decided to answer the phone, asking, “What’s the matter?”

On the other end, Douglas sobbed uncontrollably, “Charlie, my good brother, I’m so sorry! I totally misjudged you!”

Hearing him cry so hard made Charlie feel sympathy, prompting him to ask, “Do you know the truth now?”

Douglas continued to cry, “After you told me, the more I thought about it, the more I realized something was off. I tracked her iPhone to a villa in a gated community. When I knocked on the door to catch them in the act, I was beaten up by the man, his driver and the housekeeper and then I was taken to the hospital by an ambulance…”

Douglas broke down further, pleading, “Charlie, I was blind and wronged you. Please don’t stay mad at me. You’re my only true friend! If you turn against me, I’ll be left with nothing in Aurous Hill…”

Charlie sighed, saying, “I don’t blame you. Which hospital are you in now?”

“I’m at the Silverwing Hospital.” Douglas replied. “They broke my leg with a baseball bat. The doctor said I won’t be able to get out of bed for a while. I had the painting you gave me when I attempted to catch the cheaters. Could you help me pawn it to the pawnshop? I’ve spent all my money eating out and now I’m broke and unable to pay for my treatment…”

Upon hearing this, Charlie quickly asked, “Did the people who hurt you not cover your medical expenses?”

“No…” Replied Douglas.

“Did you report them to the police?” Charlie inquired.

Douglas answered “It was useless. The police said I broke into a private residence and that they acted in self-defense…”

“How unreasonable!” Charlie exclaimed in anger. “Just wait, I’ll be there shortly!”
