The Vengeful Son-in-law

Chapter 494

Roger realized that Tom was truly the chairman of the ZQ Media!

However, he had threatened Tom like this and humiliated Tom so much just now. When he thought of

these, his face immediately turned pale. He was so afraid that his legs were trembling!

If Tom was just the chairman of ZQ Media, Roger wouldn't be so scared. What really scared him was

Tom's other identity, that was, a master of the Innate Realm. Tom killed Peter, a member of the North

Sky Association, and May, a she-devil. Tom was known as the top master in G State!

Roger, who was just a fighter of the Extrinsic Peak, was nothing in front of Tom.

For a moment, Roger was so scared that he was in a panic and felt like weeping but had no tears. He

said to Tom, "Mr. Howard, I, I didn't know what was going on and offended you... I'm really sorry! Mr.

Howard, please don't lower yourself to the same level as me..."

Roger's reaction immediately stunned Violette and other people. They opened their eyes wide and

looked at Roger in shock. They couldn't understand why Roger was so afraid of Tom. After all, Roger

was also the general manager of a large group. Although he was not as rich as the chairman of the ZQ

Media, he should not be that scared.

Besides, the market value of the XG Group was not lower than that of ZQ Media.

They didn't know that Tom was powerful not only because he was the chairman of ZQ Media!

When Tom saw Roger's reaction, he immediately figured out that the reason why Roger was so afraid

of him was that he knew Tom was a master of the Innate Realm.

He said with a fake smile, "Mr. Shear, don't say that. How dare I quarrel with you? You are the general

manager of the XG Group. Besides, you are a master of the Extrinsic Peak. You are young and

promising."

When Roger heard Tom's words, he was even more scared. Swallowing his pride, he quickly slapped

himself and said sadly, "Mr. Howard, it's my fault. I failed to recognize you and offended you! Mr.

Howard, it's all my fault. Mr. Howard, you are a bigger person. Please don't lower yourself to the same

level as me. Let me off. Please..."

As he begged for mercy, he slapped himself in the face. He looked extremely miserable. He slapped

himself hard, not daring to slack off at all. The sound of his slaps suddenly attracted the attentions of all

the people present.

When Clarissa saw this scene, a light flashed in her eyes. She liked Tom even more. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

She could tell that what Tom really scared Roger was not just his identity as the chairman of the ZQ

Media, but his outstanding martial art. She was lucky to have seen that in the octagonal cage, a

professional boxing champion like Connor was no match for Tom.

Violette and Chloe were dumbfounded. They had never expected Roger, who had always been

arrogant, would be so afraid! This was completely unbelievable! They had known Roger for a long time,

and they knew Roger's strength very well... But now... They soon realized that it was not because

Roger was timid, but because Tom was too strong. Roger was no match for him at all!

Tom didn't want to lower himself to the same level as such a loser, so he said directly, "Get lost."

Roger was relieved. He put his hands on his head, turned himself into a ball, and rolled out.

The atmosphere suddenly became weird, and the scene was unusually quiet.

Everyone's eyes were on Tom. Tom didn't care about others, but Clarissa and Phoebe's gaze made

him ill at ease!

In particular, Phoebe's meaningful expression sent a chill down his spine. Just as he was about to

explain, Phoebe smiled and said, "Honey, why didn't you tell me that you know Miss Brown? You

shouldn't do that."

Phoebe called Tom 'honey', which made Clarissa jealous.

"Ugh..." Tom's forehead broke out in a cold sweat, and his heart beat so fast. Even in the nick of time

when he fought with Sean, he was not as nervous as he was now. His mind was racing, and he had to

think of an explanation!

"What?" Phoebe touched Tom's leg with her right hand. The smile on her face was full of threat, which

made Tom's heart skip a beat and his whole body was filled with goosebumps!

Wait a minute!

Tom suddenly thought of something. He shouldn't be guilty. Nothing had happened between him and

Clarissa. If Phoebe was asking him about Amelia, he really felt guilty, but nothing ever happened

between him and Clarissa.

After figuring it out, Tom immediately became confident and said, "Miss Brown and I have met a few

times. We are just friends."

He deliberately emphasized the word "friend". Now he was completely relaxed and no longer guilty.

After Phoebe heard this, her face softened a little. However, Clarissa's face became even paler.

She bit her lip, then smiled, and returned to her natural and graceful demeanor. She took the initiative

to say to Phoebe, "You must be Mrs. Howard, right? Indeed, you are very beautiful. No wonder Mr.

Howard is so infatuated with you and never be seduced by other women."

When Phoebe heard Clarissa's words, she looked over. She was a little nervous. No matter what, she

was a fan of Clarissa. She said quickly, "Miss Brown, don't pull my leg. I am not at all beautiful

compared with you. You're the real beauty. I'm a big fan of you."

Clarissa was stunned. Obviously, she did not expect that Tom's wife would be a fan of her. This feeling

was strange. However, knowing that Phoebe was her fan, she was not so sad now. She smiled and

said, "Mrs. Howard, you are too modest. You are really beautiful. It's Mr. Howard's blessing that he can

marry you."

Tom said proudly, "Of course."

But immediately, Clarissa added, "Mrs. Howard, I envy you from the bottom of my heart that you can

marry a good man like Mr. Howard. Unlike me, who are not young but still single."

When the people around them heard her words, they all thought in their hearts, "You are an

outstanding woman. How can you not have a boyfriend? Because you are too demanding!"

Phoebe also said meaningfully, "Miss Brown, you are such an excellent person. I believe that as long

as you take the initiative, you can win heart of any man in the world."

Clarissa glanced at Tom on purpose, shook her head, smiled bitterly and said sadly, "Mrs. Howard, you

don't understand. No matter what I do, the man I like won't take me seriously. Alas..."
