The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 64

The people around believed Charlie’s words wholeheartedly, their excitement bubbling as they anticipated diving into the world of martial arts.

Mr. Quinton, who had been standing in a daze nearby, finally snapped back to reality, his face twisting in frustration.

This is utterly humiliating!

He had spent a fortune hiring bodyguards, all seasoned martial artists from the local martial arts dojo, yet he never expected…

He never imagined he would be taken down so easily by a young man who learned martial arts from television!

Mr. Quinton, an outsider to the martial arts world, couldn’t gauge Charlie’s skill, but his bodyguards were far from foolish.

A true expert can assess someone’s capabilities with just a single move!

They saw immediately that Charlie was not exaggerating and that he hadn’t even unleashed his full power.

He was indeed someone they couldn’t dare to provoke!

Consequently, the bodyguards, brimming with awe, hesitated to approach Charlie.

Watching from the sidelines, Jacob was oblivious to the realities of martial arts. To him, Charlie’s techniques seemed basic just wrist grips and shoulder throws but he mistook them for mere strength. He had no idea that what he witnessed was true martial arts in action.

Charlie flashed a grin at Mr. Quinton and asked, “Are you coming over on your own, or do I need to come to you?”

“Please, don’t come any closer,” Mr. Quinton stammered, dread washing over him as he instinctively danced back a few steps.

Seeing him back away like that, Charlie scoffed and advanced toward him.

Mr. Quinton, terror etched on his face, recoiled further. If he got thrown like that, there was no doubt he’d be stuck in the hospital for at least two weeks!

Just then, a sleek black BMW appeared at the street corner and pulled over nearby.

The driver quickly opened the door, beckoning someone to step out.

Mr. Quinton’s spirits lifted at the sight and he called out, “Sister! I’ve been beaten! Come save me!”

Charlie looked up as the crowd parted to reveal a woman clad in form-fitting black athletic wear striding their way.

The outfit accentuated her figure flawlessly and her furious expression lent her an air of fierce determination.

“That’s Adam Quinton’s sister, Aurora!” someone in the crowd exclaimed, sparking a wave of whispers.

Adam Quinton yelled out, “Sister, this guy hurt me please help me get back at him!”

As Aurora approached, she surveyed the fallen bodyguards and then fixed her icy gaze on Charlie. “Did you do this?”

Charlie replied coolly, “Yes, I did. What’s your issue with that?”

Her sneer conveyed disdain as she retorted, “Nothing, but you need to apologize to my brother right now!”

“And if I refuse?”

“Then I’ll make you wish you hadn’t!”

Before she had a chance to finish her threat, Aurora executed a swift kick aimed at Charlie’s face.

Surprised, Charlie noted that her skills far surpassed those of the preceding bodyguards.

Her whip kick was both powerful and lightning-fast, marking her as a genuine martial artist!

Adam watched, thinking, “Let’s see if my sister doesn’t wipe the floor with you!”

Having practiced martial arts for many years, she was adept in ancient training and modern combat styles and even seasoned martial artists had fallen to her.

But in the next moment, Adam’s astonishment grew.

“Pathetically weak!”

With a furious shout, Charlie dodged to the side in an instant and then propelled his leg to kick Aurora in the rear, sending her sprawling.

Adam’s jaw dropped in disbelief, his mind reeling. “This… is impossible!”

Aurora was mortified and enraged. Since taking up martial arts, she had never faced such public humiliation, especially in such a degrading manner!

Fuming, she sprang back to her feet and lunged at Charlie, determined to teach this disrespectful punk a lesson.

“Aurora, stop! Show some respect to Master Wade!” Suddenly, a middle-aged man dashed forward and grabbed her by the arm.

Aurora, seething with shame and anger, shouted, “Dad, let go! I’m going to make him pay!”

How could he kick my rear? Doesn’t he know how to treat women gently? It still stings!

“Be quiet!”

The middle-aged man glared at her, his voice firm.

Then, he approached Charlie, taking a deep breath as he transformed his demeanor into one of respect. “Master Wade, it’s good to see you again… I sincerely apologize on behalf of my incompetent daughter and son. Upon returning home, I will ensure they reflect on their behavior.”

Aurora and Adam stood frozen, disbelief washing over them. Their father held a prestigious position in Aurous Hill City, yet here he was, being so deferential to this young man.

Charlie recognized him. He had encountered Graham during a trip to assess some treasures with Jasmine.

Nodding politely, Charlie remarked, “Mr. Quinton, your son could certainly use a reminder about respect.”

Graham nodded vigorously, glaring at Aurora and Adam as he commanded, “Come here and apologize to Master Wade!”

“I refuse to apologize to the jerk who humiliated me!” Aurora pouted, her anger palpable.

Graham shouted sternly, “Apologize! Now! Immediately!”

Aurora’s defiance crumbled in the face of his anger she bit down on her grievance and mumbled, “I’m sorry…”

Adam, on the other hand, was livid. “Father, this kid just insulted me and hurt my sister! It’s one thing for you to let this slide, but now you want me to apologize? If you won’t deal with him, I’ll find someone else to handle it!”

Smack!

Graham struck him sharply across the face, his voice seething with fury. “Brat! Kneel before Master Wade!”

Adam, stunned by the blow, saw stars and tasted blood in his mouth, clutching his face in horror. He was awestruck, completely unprepared for the direction this conversation had taken.

But kneeling in public…

That would completely tarnish the Quinton family’s reputation. They would lose all face in Aurous Hill City!

Graham gritted his teeth, imploring, “You wretch! Do you realize that if Master Wade hadn’t identified the clues associated with your jade, not only would you have faced doom, but the entire Quinton family would too?”

His stern reprimand continued, “I couldn’t understand why the Quinton family has faced such misfortune lately, with incident after incident. Now it’s clear you, an ungrateful fool, have brought us this trouble. If your grandfather were here, he would surely break your legs!”

Terrified by his father’s serious tone, Adam felt his legs weaken and he collapsed to the ground.

Graham commanded, “Why aren’t you apologizing to Master Wade?”

“Yes, I’m sorry…” Adam trembled, fear evident in his voice as he pleaded with Charlie, his eyes brimming with trepidation.

Graham turned to Charlie, voice respectful. “Master Wade, does this resolution meet your satisfaction?”

Charlie replied calmly, “It’s fine. Since he has knelt, I won’t pursue this matter any further.”

Relieved, Graham asked eagerly, “Master Wade, may I ask one more question? After the jade is lost, will my Quinton family’s fortunes ever return to normal?”

Charlie chuckled derisively, “You’re dreaming! The malevolence tied to that jade is substantial and it’s not just affecting Adam. In my opinion, your family will likely face ruin within a year!”
