The Vengeful Son-in-law

Chapter 97

After work, when he came out of the office, he saw Forrest standing alone at the door, hovering

uneasily with a gift box in his hand.

Seeing Tom come out, he immediately showed a surprised expression and quickly walked up to him

and said, "Chairman, I'm sorry about today! This is an antique that a fan of mine gave me a while ago. I

heard that the chairman also likes to collect antiques, so I especially brought it to you. Please calm

down, chairman, and please forgive me!"

It was obvious that Forrest was nervous. He said it in one breath and handed the gift box to Tom with

both hands.

Tom said, "There's no need for this. I have nothing to do with Megan. You can pursue her if you like,

and I won't be angry with you."

When Forrest heard this, he was even more afraid. Desperately, he pleaded, "Chairman, I was really

wrong. Please don't ban me from the business, chairman. I promise I won't talk to Miss Watson

anymore!"

At this moment, there were still a lot of employees around. When they saw this, they all started

gossiping, but they didn't dare to look over. They were afraid that they would make the chairman angry.

They were all listening carefully but they pretended not to hear anything with their heads buried in their

works.

Tom rolled his eyes for Forrest got frightened so easily. "Okay, okay, I won't ban you. Don't worry. Just

work hard and make money for me."

Forrest relaxed a lot. "Then I beg you to accept the gift!"

"Is this necessary?" Tom frowned.

"Please accept it, or I will feel uneasy!" Forrest looked very serious.

Tom understood he was not joking for he was really scared. If Tom didn't accept it, he might be worried

the whole time in his future work. If he failed in the filming, it would be a tragic loss to the company. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

After all, Forrest was ZQ Company's money-spinner now.

"Okay, I'll take it." Tom took the gift and found it quite heavy.

Only then did Forrest relax completely. He bowed deeply to Tom and said, "Thank you, chairman, for

your generosity!"

Tom waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.

Forrest was very happy. The antique he sent this time was authentic blue and white porcelain of the

early Ming Dynasty. It was very valuable. He believed that the chairman would definitely like it!

At the same time, Rory was also picking out antiques to visit James tomorrow.

However, he couldn't bear to spend millions to buy the real one. He found a friend in this industry who

was proficient in imitation and spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy a high-grade fake blue and

white porcelain. It would take a professional to know the real differences.

Early the next morning, Rory wrapped the fake blue and white porcelain nicely and went to visit James.

...

Tom fell asleep on the sofa and suddenly heard Elizabeth exclaim, "What? Rory is coming for a visit?

Which Rory are we talking about here?"

Phoebe pulled Elizabeth aside and said unhappily, "Mom, calm down. Tom is still sleeping."

Elizabeth said indifferently, "So what? This is my house. Do I have to indulge him? Besides, it's seven

o'clock. He's still sleeping? Lazy pig!"

"That's because he worked late last night to meet your needs." Although Phoebe didn't like Tom very

much, Elizabeth's unkindness to Tom still made her couldn't stand it.

"All right, all right, let's not talk about this trash anymore. Tell me what's with this Rory. Who is this

Rory?" Elizabeth said eagerly.

Phoebe glanced at Tom on the sofa. Seeing that he was still sleeping and seemed not to be woken up,

she began to say, "It's the Rory we have known four years ago."

"Ah! I remember now. Hadn't he gone abroad? Why did he come back?" Elizabeth was very surprised,

and then she gossiped, "Phoebe, it seems that Rory still has feelings for you. I heard that the TF

Company is doing well now, with two or three hundred million dollars in profits every year. If you marry

him, you won't worry about money anymore."

"Mom! What are you talking about? What a nonsense!" Phoebe was immediately angry. She couldn't

stand Elizabeth's philistine look. "Who do you think I am? You asked me to get close to the chairman of

ZQ Company a few days ago, and now you want me to marry Rory. What kind of mother are you!"

Elizabeth was not embarrassed at all and said naturally, "How can you say that? I'm doing it for your

own good. You're not very young anymore. Do you want to waste more time on Tom? Mom is more

experienced in this matter, and I won't hurt you. If I hadn't had you earlier, I would have remarried and

wouldn't have suffered with your father? Mom was also a beauty at that time..."

Phoebe couldn't bear any longer and said, "Mom, are you serious? Dad has taken good care of you all

these years!"

"So what? Money is all that matters." Elizabeth snorted.

Phoebe really didn't want to talk to Elizabeth anymore.

At this moment, James came out of the room. "What are you two talking about? You seem to have fun."

"Nothing." Phoebe said hurriedly, afraid that Elizabeth would repeat what she just said unexpectedly,

caussing an unnecessary fight.

"By the way, dad, Rory will visit you later, we won't cook then. Let's go out to a hotel for dinner."

Phoebe said.

James was also surprised. "Rory? He's back!"

"Yes." Phoebe nodded. Just as the doorbell rang, Elizabeth immediately said, "It must be Rory! I'll open

the door for him!"

When she passed by the sofa, she deliberately slapped Tom on the face and scolded, "Get up! A

distinguished guest is coming. Clean up the sofa now!"

Tom couldn't pretend anymore. He quickly got up and rubbed his sleepy eyes. Immediately, he saw

Elizabeth open the door. The handsome Rory was standing at the door. Behind him were two tall and

burly bodyguards with gifts in their hands.

"Oh! Isn't this Rory? What brings you here? Come in, please." Elizabeth's face was filled with surprise.

Rory smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm here to visit you and uncle."

Elizabeth saw two big bags of gifts in the hands of the two bodyguards. There were tea leaves, famous

wine, and so on. She put on a really big smile. "Oh, Rory, don't blame me for talking too much. Your

visit is good enough for us. Why do you have to bring so many gifts?"

Even though she said so, what she did was quite the opposite. She couldn't wait to take the gifts over.

She looked down and saw that they were all expensive gifts, which really thrilled her.

"These are nothing worth much. I hope Auntie will not be offended." Rory said with a smile. When he

came in, he saw Tom on the sofa in the living room with the quilt on his body. Obviously, he spent the

night on the sofa last night. The corner of Rory's mouth couldn't help but rise for he was so happy!

His information was right. Tom, the trash, was indeed sleeping on the sofa. He couldn't even get near

to Phoebe's bed.

So Phoebe's body was still untouched by other men, haha!
