The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 87

Jack Yaleman was losing his mind! He was a well-respected figure both locally and internationally, yet he was so arrogant that he continually sabotaged his own presentation, which was infuriating!

To make matters worse, he dared to insult Charlie!

This was an invitation for disaster!

Everyone around was taken aback!

Where did this audacious kid come from? How could he have the guts to insult Mr. Yaleman? Was he tired of living? Mr. Yaleman was a Feng Shui Master and there were countless subtle ways to make him pay without raising a finger!

Despite his fury, Mr. Yaleman maintained a facade of composure in an attempt to acquire the giant clam at a bargain price. With a smile, he said, “My friend, there seems to have been a misunderstanding between us earlier. It’s just a minor issue. If you’re bidding against me out of vengeance, don’t you think that’s beneath you?”

Originally, Mr. Yaleman intended to secure the giant clam for 15 million, but if he fought Charlie head-on, the next bid would likely exceed 30 million.

He wanted to avoid overspending!

So, he bit back his anger, hoping Charlie would retract his offer.

Once Mr. Yaleman had won the clam for 15 million, he could take his time settling scores later on!

Charlie had already seen through his intentions and replied disdainfully, “Quit the nonsense. I want that giant clam too. If you can afford to pay for it, go ahead. If not, why don’t you just leave?”

The atmosphere erupted again!

Incredible!

This guy actually dared to challenge Mr. Yaleman…

Wasn’t he just a tad too bold?

Mr. Yaleman’s expression darkened, yet he pressed on, “I truly desire this giant clam. Would you consider giving me a break here?”

Charlie glanced at him and replied coolly, “Give you a break? Do I even know you?”

Then he added, “Come on, just be honest. Can you afford the price?”

Mr. Yaleman’s expression twisted in anger. No one had ever spoken to him that way!

And the bravado was coming from someone who looked to be about 20, younger than his own disciples!

In a fit of rage, Mr. Yaleman let go of his pretenses and shot back coldly, “I can’t believe my face has been so disrespected! Fine, since this is a fair competition, let the highest bidder win! I’m curious to see how much money you really have to go up against me for this giant clam!”

With that, he raised his voice and declared, “I’ll bid 50 million!!”

The loud announcement sent a wave of commotion through the audience!

The auction had turned into a fierce contest and the tension in the room escalated quickly!

The rules were simple! The one with the most money wins!

Mr. Yaleman was playing it straightforward. He figured that if he continued a game of increments with Charlie, it could drag on indefinitely. So, he aimed low, hoping to scare Charlie away. If he threw out a 50 million bid, surely Charlie wouldn’t dare to follow.

But to everyone’s astonishment, Charlie remained unfazed and calmly stated, “One hundred million!”

The price had just doubled!

The excitement in the venue reached a fever pitch!

In mere minutes, the price of the clam had skyrocketed tenfold, setting a record for auction history!

Adam couldn’t help but shout, “Charlie, stop pretending! Do you really have that kind of money?”

Charlie chuckled and replied, “I genuinely do. What’s the matter? Can’t handle it? Let me clue you in the card I’m using is from your Quinton family. Your father gave it to me personally. Surprised, aren’t you?”

“You! You!” Adam spluttered, his face flushed with rage. “You’re a scoundrel for using my family’s money! I promise you, I will tear you apart for this!”

Mr. Yaleman turned to Adam and inquired, “Adam, do you know this individual?”

Adam scoffed, “He’s a son-in-law of the Wilson family, unemployed, living off his wife. He’s only made a bit of money lately by flattering my second uncle…”

“Is that so?” Mr. Yaleman raised an eyebrow, as if he had just relieved his anxiety and sneered.

“You’re just bluffing, young man. I advise you not to get too cocky, or you may regret it. It’s not that I look down on you, but can you genuinely afford a hundred million?”

Charlie’s expression turned rigid as he replied, “Worry about whether I can afford it or not. If you have the guts, keep bidding if you lack the courage, then be quiet!”

Mr. Yaleman could no longer hold back and cursed, “Kid! You’re courting disaster!”

Charlie laughed, “Am I courting disaster? You, the one who can’t even buy anything and yet talks about killing me? Hahaha, you’re truly foolish!”

Mr. Yaleman, repeatedly mocked by Charlie, could no longer maintain his composure. His gloomy voice trembled as he admonished, “Young man, you better stop! Hand over the clam peacefully, or you’ll pay the price!”

At those words, Charlie’s expression shifted. It was clear that this was a veiled threat from the Treasure Pavilion!

His face grew pale with anger, but he dared not defy Mr. Yaleman. He was clearly unsettled.

Charlie smiled lightly and replied, “If you want my life, you’ll have to wait until the auction ends, right? It hasn’t concluded yet. I just bid 100 million, so let’s see what you do next!”

Jasmine was wide-eyed with astonishment. Mr. Yaleman was not an ordinary figure. Even the Moore family couldn’t ensure they could handle him. So what was Charlie thinking by provoking Mr. Yaleman like this? Where did he get such confidence?

Jacob slumped on the sofa, clutching his heart in shock and gasping, thinking, “It’s over, it’s all over now. My son-in-law is done for and so is my family.”

Mr. Yaleman’s expression tightened. Charlie was not taking him seriously. His words slapped him in the face! But Charlie was right, this was an auction. To win the giant clam, one had to keep bidding.

However, one hundred million…

Who on earth could pay that much?

All eyes were on Mr. Yaleman, eager to see how he would respond.

Mr. Yaleman’s face paled, but for the sake of the giant clam, he stifled his rage and spoke to Charlie with forced humility,

“My friend, if I offended you earlier, it was unintentional. Please forgive me.”

“But I truly need this giant clam. I would appreciate your kindness and would owe you a favor. My favor holds more value than the clam!”

There was a cold glint in his eyes. This young man had humiliated him to the core. As soon as this was over, he had to find a way to end Charlie!

Charlie replied flatly, “Sorry, but this clam is also useful to me, so I can’t let you have it!”

“Besides, I’ve said it before, you’re just a petty bully to me and your favor means nothing!”

Mr. Yaleman was at the end of his rope!

One thought consumed him: wait until the auction was done and find a way to take Charlie’s life!

He had to eliminate him!!!

Witnessing Mr. Yaleman’s frustration, the onlookers couldn’t help but gasp. They were stunned by how this young man had held his ground, even reducing Mr. Yaleman to a defeated opponent!

With the final thump of the auctioneer’s gavel, Charlie successfully purchased the giant clam for 100 million.

Mr. Yaleman was furious. He glared at Charlie with hatred, his face pale, before storming off.

He wanted to eliminate Charlie immediately, but the current situation didn’t allow for it, he would have to bide his time.

Jasmine watched Mr. Yaleman leave and cautioned Charlie, “He’s not an ordinary individual. I have a feeling he won’t just let this go and will definitely come after you. Be careful in the coming days.”

Charlie smiled and replied, “I doubt he’ll dare to show up!”
