The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 66

Graham wore a respectful smile as he addressed Charlie, “Master Wade, I will never forget your generosity towards the Quinton family. I’m a bit rushed today and couldn’t prepare well. Could you please come to the Quinton residence tomorrow? I’d like to host a banquet at my home to personally show my gratitude.”

“No, I have other commitments.” Charlie replied coolly, shaking his head. “I intervened today because of the kindness you’ve shown me in the past. I prefer to keep things low-key. Do you understand?”

Graham was taken aback but nodded repeatedly, saying, “I understand! If Master Wade will need the Quinton family in the future, just reach out whenever you need us.”

With that, he quickly presented a gold-plated business card that bore his personal mobile number.

Charlie accepted it without a glance, then turned and walked away with his father-in-law.

As Graham watched their departing figures, he shot an angry glare at Adam, urging, “In Aurous Hill, when you see Master Wade, be sure to bow respectfully and greet him! Don’t embarrass me!”

Adam replied, looking disgruntled, “I had no idea I could offend someone just by making a purchase on the street…”

Aurora, standing aside with a cold expression, watched Charlie leave, her teeth gritted in frustration. Although she held Charlie in high regard, she was clearly still resentful about how he had handled her.

For someone as proud as she was, this type of humiliation felt unforgivable.

Sighing, Graham tried to comfort her, “Sweetheart, please don’t think about revenge against Master Wade. Our whole family depends on him now…”

“Can he really help us?” Adam muttered skeptically.

Graham snapped, “If you keep talking like that, I swear I’ll break your legs!”

Adam retreated, silenced by his father’s anger.

Aurora huffed in disdain, saying, “I know, Dad… I won’t provoke him…”

Just thinking about the bruise from earlier made her uncomfortable all over.

“What a shame…” Graham shook his head, letting out a heavy sigh.

Aurora looked at him with curiosity, “What a shame?”

He glanced at her and said, “It’s a shame Master Wade is already married otherwise, you two would make quite the pair…”

“Dad! What are you saying!” Aurora felt a mix of embarrassment and anger.

During their drive back, Jacob was filled with astonishment.

To think that the prestigious head of the Quinton family was so deferential to his son-in-law!

“Charlie, were those things you said to Graham really true?” Jacob queried, wondering if his son-in-law was becoming more of a trickster.

Charlie chuckled, “It’s a mix of truth and exaggeration. Don’t all fraudsters love to maintain an air of mystery?”

Jacob, alarmed by this revelation, exclaimed, “Goodness, you had the audacity to deceive the Quinton family and accept such a precious bracelet from them. What if they come after you once they find out? Don’t drag us into your problems!”

Charlie reassured him, “I can always return the bracelet. In a lawful society, can they really harm me?”

Jacob sighed, clearly worried, yet after considering it further, he saw no alternative but to take the risk. Perhaps Charlie had a genuine strategy after all?

Once they reached home, Charlie entered the bedroom and retrieved the “peace and wealth” stone he had gotten from Zachary.

At that moment, Charlie suddenly felt a wave of energy surging into his body from the stone.

Warmth spread through his torso, inundating him with an indescribable comfort.

Soon, beads of sweat mixed with impurities began to pour from his body, leaving him feeling incredibly relaxed.

After a short while, Charlie sensed a stream of energy circulating within him.

This was the reiki!

When he examined the stone again, Charlie noticed that it had returned to its mundane state, like an ordinary rock.

He attempted to harness the cultivation method from the “Apocalyptic Book,” but was unable to extract any reiki from it.

Realizing he could only place the stone back into his pocket, Charlie felt this object had some significance, but without understanding it fully at the moment, he decided to wait until his cultivation level improved in the future.

Feeling sticky all over, Charlie hurried to take a shower. By the time he finished, it was already past 5 PM. His wife, Claire, called him.

On the call, she explained that she was discussing project details at the Emgrand Group and mentioned that the BMW 520, secretly a 760, he had bought for her was restricted today, so she had not driven it. Instead, she needed him to pick her up in her father’s 530 at the Emgrand Group.

Naturally, when his wife called, Charlie agreed to help her. He promptly asked his father-in-law for the car keys and drove to the Emgrand Group.

Once downstairs, Charlie pulled out his phone to call Claire.

She didn’t answer but quickly sent him a text message.

“Charlie, I’m still in a meeting with the project team. Please wait for me downstairs for a bit. Thank you for your efforts.”

“Sure, I’ll wait for you.”

After responding, Charlie waited outside the car, smoking as he passed the time.

At that moment, Doris Young, the vice chairman of the Emgrand Group, called him. “Young Master, have you arrived at the Emgrand Group?”

Curious, Charlie asked, “How do you know?”

Doris Young replied, “I’m in my office and can see your car from here.”

Charlie looked up with a smile, “Did you need to discuss something with me?”

Doris Young responded, “The young lady is still in a meeting and it may take some time. I’d like to ask if you’re available, as I want to report to you about my recent work.”

Charlie considered it, realizing he hadn’t been managing the Emgrand Group lately and shouldn’t remain ignorant of its affairs. He said, “Okay, just wait a moment, I’ll come up.”

Doris Young replied, “Then go straight to your office and I’ll report to you there.”

“Got it.”

After ending the call, Charlie entered the building, took the elevator, and made his way directly to the chairman’s office on the top floor.

As he stepped out of the elevator and walked toward his office, a door suddenly swung open behind him.

Loreen was on her way to the bathroom when she unexpectedly spotted a familiar figure.

Though she didn’t recognize him right away, the back of the man seemed strikingly similar to the god-level rich person she had seen on social media.

Could it be that the chairman she had longed to meet had finally arrived?

Loreen felt a rush of excitement!

Her main goal for coming to Aurous Hill and the Emgrand Group was to get closer to this mysterious chairman and work toward winning his affection, thus elevating her entire family’s status.

This task had been entrusted to her by her family, serving as their reliance on her prospects.

However, she also felt a growing frustration, having been there for days without ever catching a glimpse of the chairman. How could she build a lasting connection with him like this?

So now, seeing the chairman’s back, her excitement surged!

She quickly took a few steps and began to follow Charlie, hoping to catch up to him and say hello and then introduce herself!
