.The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 516When Kenneth returned to the Wilson family home, Wendy hurried forward and greeted him withjoy, “Kenneth, you're finally home. Did the Weaver family fix you?"Kenneth huffed in annoyance, “They couldn't fix me at all, in the end, they asked Charlie Wade tocure me."“Charlie Wade? Charlie Wade Wade?” Wendy asked in surprise, “So, did he heal you?”Kenneth sighed, “Yes, but just the necrosis, it’s still unusable...”Wendy said indignantly, “Then you shouldn't let the Weaver family go so easily, especially Jeffrey! Itwas he who fooled you into taking their lousy medicine and caused you so much distress andmisery. You have to let them heal you no matter what!”Kenneth's expression was distant and cold. “I let the Weaver family go because of Charlie Wade, butwhen I return to Eastcliff, I will pursue the Weaver family on this matter!”Wendy was stunned. “Ken... Kenneth, are you going back to Eastcliff?”Kenneth glanced at Wendy emotionlessly and said, “Of course I'm going back. Aurouss Hilll hasgiven me enough bad luck already!”Wendy immediately panicked when she heard that her god of wealth was leaving. She clung on himand said coyly, “But Kenneth, I don’t want to leave you. Take me to Eastcliff with you, okay?”Wendy knew that the Wilson family had no hope of bouncing back this time.He had only given them ten million dollars out of the eighty million dollar investment that hepromised them. It wasn't even enough to cover the debt.She had nowhere to go now. Everyone in Aurouss Hilll already knew about her being Kenneth'smistress, so it was almost impossible for her to replace a decent husband to marry in the city.Therefore, the only option she had right now was to cling on Kenneth and never let go. This was theonly chance she could start anew.However, how could Kenneth take her to Eastcliff? He was married, what if his wife found out abouther? World War 3 would erupt in no time!Besides, it was useless for Kenneth to bring Wendy with him. He couldn’t do anything to her rightnow. She had lost the sole purpose as a lover.So, Kenneth said in a direct and harsh manner, “No, I can't, Eastcliff is not someplace you can go to.Just stay in Aurouss Hill.”Wendy shrieked frantically, “Then, what should I do?”"What else can you do? We are over. As for the future, let's see when I'll be coming to Aurouss Hilllagain and we'll see if there's still fate between us then.”The entire Wilson family was equally confused and stuttered when Kenneth suddenly decided toleave.Lady Wilson was expecting Kenneth to give them the remaining seventy million dollars as hepromised, but if he left now, it would devastate the family to the point of kicking them into theabyss.They had no other way to go except declaring bankruptcy.Besides, due to the outstanding debts, even the deteriorating mansion might be put up to cover thedebt!Lady Wilson saw Kenneth as their floating boat in the ocean of debt. If he left, the Wilson familywould be in despair again.So, she pleaded to Kenneth, her eyes reddish and her voice hoarse, “Kenneth, if you leave now, ourfamily is done! We are family, Wendy is your lover, you can't just leave us!”Then, she hurriedly blurted, “Why don't you take us back to Eastcliff? We'll follow you like loyalservants, you are our boss!”Christopher interjected, “Yes! Kenneth, throughout your stay in the city for the past few days, wehave treated you like a distinguished guest. My father saved your father's life too! Please, I beg you,please be merciful and take us to Eastcliff.”A dash of irritation flashed across Kenneth's eyes. He sneered and said, “That's so funny. We aren“trelated at all, why do I want to take you to Eastcliff?”He added, “Furthermore, yes, your father did save my father, but I've returned the favor by investingten million in your company, so that's it between us!”The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 517Kenneth turned up his nose at Lady Wilson and the rest of the family, so he couldn't care less abouttheir devastating statusRight now, all he could think of was getting back to Eastcliff as soon as possible, then visiting thefinest doctor in the city to treat his erectile disorder.Lady Wilson marched forward to plead with him again, but Kenneth shoved her away irritably andsaid, “That's enough, I need to pack my things now. End of discussion.”Lady Wilson's face turned pale. “No, Kenneth, you can't just leave us like this. You know how we areright now. Without your help, we'll go bankrupt...”Then, she winked at Wendy.Wendy stuck herself on Kenneth's arm and pleaded, “Kenneth, Grandma is right. Besides, didn’t yousay that you want to invest eighty million dollars in our company? You only gave us ten million sofar, it's not enough to solve our crisis!”Then, she added, “Why don’t you give us the remaining seventy million to keep the company afloat?Perhaps we'll already be up and moving when you return to Aurouss Hill.”The rest of the family looked at him expectantly and desperately. Kenneth could leave whenever hewanted, but he had to give them the money before he left, otherwise, the Wilson family would bedone for.Harold marched forward too. “Kenneth, everyone in the upper-class circle in the city knows that mysister is your lover. Her reputation is somewhat tarnished now. If you go, she will be a laughingstock!”They didn't expect that Kenneth would be enraged by their remarks!He cursed, his face as gloomy as a thundercloud, “Money, money, money! All you can think of ismoney! You should be grateful that I didn't take back the ten million dollars, how dare you still askme for more money? Don't make me laugh!”Lady Wilson didn't want to give up. She squeezed out a few drops of tears and said, “Kenneth,please, we really need your help!”The rest of the family pleaded with him at the same time like the group of beggars by the street.Kenneth was annoyed. He slapped Lady Wilson across the face and growled, “Get the h*Il away fromme! If you dare say another word, I'll ask my lawyer to seek compensation from you and ask you torefund the ten million dollars! Deal with it!"Lady Wilson covered her reddened face and fell silent.If they really irritated him to the point where he sought legal action for the ten million dollars, theycouldn't produce the money now!So, she could only sigh in despair and watched as Kenneth carried his bag and left with hisbodyguards.After Kenneth left, the five members of the Wilson family fell into a silent and sad ambiance.Lady Wilson was upset, Harold and Wendy were at a loss, while Christopher and Hannah exchangedsinister glances.Actually, Christopher still has some savings in his hands.He had about ten million dollars of saving in his account, and the additional five million thatKenneth had given Wendy as her pocket money. They planned to use the fifteen million dollars tobuy a house.The money could be used to pay off most of Wilson Group's debts, but he wouldn't want to do that!The current Wilson Group was a bottomless pit. Using his money to pay off the debts was likethrowing his money down the drain, for he would not get any returns from it. Why should he do itthen?Anyway, the company was registered under Lady Wilson's name, so she was responsible for thedebts too. If the court took action for the failure of debt settlement, they would only seize her villaand personal funds and would not include him. He could use the fifteen million dollars as hispension fund.He cleared his throat and said, intending to toss the problem back to Lady Wilson, “Mom, we stillowe a lot of money to the banks and suppliers. What can we pay them with if they come knockingat our door? I'm afraid that this house will be seized and auctioned by the bank, you'd betterprepare yourself for the worst case scenario...”The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 518Lady Wilson was down in the mouth.What should she do? What else could she do?The Wilson family did not have other sources of income, they were deep in debts, and their capitalchains had long been broken. The only way they could get out of this mess was to replace investorsquickly, otherwise, they would fall apart soon.But Kenneth, who was most likely to help them, had also left. Who else could they replace now?Lady Wilson sighed and said, “Right now, we can only take one step at a time.”Suddenly, her eyes shone brightly as if something struck her mind. She looked at Wendy and said,"Wendy, Kenneth gave you to Jeffrey Weaver, didn't he? Although the Weaver family isn't as rich asKenneth, at least their net worth is around one to two billion! Why don't you beg him to investseveral million to our company to help us get through the mess?”Christopher clapped his hands in excitement. “Oh yeah! How could we forget about Jeffrey! Wendy,you were in a brief relationship with him, weren't you? I think he won't watch us die!”Wendy couldn't care less about the embarrassment of her being around men. She quickly took outher phone and called Jeffrey, thinking that he could solve their problems.However, she didn't know that Jeffrey was sitting in a Land Cruiser, heading north.The song North to Alaska by Johnny Horton was playing on the player, without a way to knowwhether or not it had been done intentionally by the driver. Jeffrey felt his heart getting colder andbleeding as he listened to the song.Besides, his phone was confiscated by Albert's men because Charlie Wade precisely ordered thatJordan and Jeffrey could not use their phone or surf the Internet. So, he didn't know that Wendywas looking for him anxiously.Wendy felt a little peculiar and surprised when she couldn't get through his phone. She mumbled,confused, “What happened? Jeffrey switched off his phone. It should be time to celebrate sincethey've just solved Kenneth'’s problem!”Lady Wilson said, “Maybe his phone battery is dead. Try again later!”“Okay!”At this moment, the great turmoil that had just occurred in the Weaver family had spreadthroughout Aurouss Hill like wildfire. It had created such huge turbulence, especially in thepharmaceutical industry.Rumors had it that Jordan Weaver, the head of the Weaver family, and Jeffrey, his son and also thesuccessor of Weaver Pharmaceuticals, were hurled to Mount Golmin. There was even a hit orderagainst them, jointly issued by multiple prominent families. Everyone realized that they must haveoffended some VIPsNo one knew for sure whom they had offended.The rest of the Weaver family members dared not talk about it, let alone Don Albertt.The news spread across the city at such a high speed that it soon reached Christopher.He was totally devastated when he knew that Jeffrey and Jordan had lost power and were now ontheir way to Mount Golmin.He told his family about the news. Lady Wilson's blood pressure shot up in an instant and fell backin a daze. She would have freefallen into trouble if Christopher wasn't fast enough to catch her.Christopher helped his mother up on the sofa. The old lady wailed in anguish as she slapped herthigh and said, “Oh god, you want us dead, don't you!"The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 519Lady Wilson fell into complete despair.She didn't want the legacy that she worked hard for her whole life to be gone just like that.Besides, this villa was the only property she had in Aurouss Hill.If they went bankrupt, the villa would definitely be seized. Next, she, her son, and his family wouldbe kicked off to the streets.Then, she suddenly remembered that Christopher must have some money in his hands. She quicklyasked, “Chris, how much money do you have right now?"Christopher's heart skipped a beat in panic. He blurted, “Mom, I don’t have much, just a fewmillion...”"A few million? Why so little?” Lady Wilson frowned in dismay. "Kenneth gave Wendy five million.Over the years, you've stayed here without any additional expenses and you even receive salaryfrom Wilson Group! Where did all your money go?”Christopher's face twisted into a sad grimace. “Mom, I don't have any savings! Yes, my livingexpenses have been quite low because I stay with you, but I still have to spend money on Harold,Wendy, and Hannah. I'm quite a big spender too, so I don't have much savings.”“If so, invest whatever money you have into the company first. It can at least drag the whole matterfor a while. Then, I'll replace a way to get more investments.”“Mom! I... I put all my money in fixed deposit accounts... I can't withdraw them now!"“Oh, just shut it!” Lady Wilson roared. “Do you think I don’t know what you're thinking in your nastylittle mind? You want to keep the money for yourself, don't you?”Christopher zipped his mouth awkwardly."Have you heard of the saying “no eggs remain unbroken when the nest is overturned? If theWilson family crumbles, do you think you can live well?”Christopher nodded frantically, “Yes, Mom, you're right... but the money is really stuck in a fixeddeposit account right now.”“So what?" Lady Wilson growled, “Do you think I'm not familiar with banking matters? You canwithdraw the money before maturity, you'll just lose your interest, that's all. Is that what you careabout at a critical moment like this?I'll give you one day to withdraw all your money and transfer it to the company account. Then, I'llcall our creditors to see if we can come out with some sort of an instalment plan for the payment, atleast it can give us a year or two to regain our composure!”It had been very troublesome for the creditors to collect debts in recent years. Therefore, if thedebtors were courteous and could provide them a clear installment repayment plan, most creditorswould agree to the idea, especially if they could repay a little of their debts first.Lady Wilson was thinking of using Christopher's money to calm the creditors down and buy hersome time to manage the debts. Otherwise, her villa would be seized next month!Christopher was very reluctant and unwilling to succumb to his mother's request.He knew that Wilson Group was a bottomless pit now and he didn't want to throw his money intothe pit. He could only nod his head to his mother’s intense request and said, “Okay, Mom. Don'tworry, Hannah and I will go to the bank later and transfer the money to the company’s account!”Lady Wilson was slightly relieved by his remark. “I guess you have at least ten million in cash, right?You transfer eight million first and we'll see how things go.”Christopher cursed his mother in his heart, “D*mn it, she is such a greedy monster! How can she askfor eight million when she presumes that I have ten million? I don't want to give her even a singlepenny!’He hid his disguise with a nod while winking at Hannah secretly. He said, “Alright then, Mom. I'll goout with Hannah to handle the matter, you stay at home and wait for our good news.”Lady Wilson nodded in satisfaction. “Okay. Go on now.”Christopher dragged Hannah out of the house. When they were outside, Hannah shrieked, “Whatthe h*ll, are you crazy?! How could you agree to the old lady's ridiculous request? Do you reallywant to give her eight million? We only have a total of fifteen million dollars in our hands!"The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 520“No, I'm not!" Christopher yelled frustratedly, “I'm just trying to get my mom off my back! Hurry andspend our money quickly so she won't bug us about it. It's best if we can replace a good house todayand buy it!"Hannah asked in shock, “What? Now?""Yes!" Christopher said, “My mom thought that I have ten million, didn't she? So, let's use ten millionto buy a house. Then, we can show her the house purchase contract and tell her that we've used themoney to buy a house. What else can she say then?"Hannah grinned in delight and said, “Wow, Chris, you're such a genius! Alright! Let's go houseshopping!”When the Wilson family was in the muddy situation again, the Weaver family became the hottesttopic in town.What happened in the Weaver family was a harsh reminder to everyone that if you were not thebest, you would likely be crushed by the people at the top of the pyramid!Weaver Pharmaceuticals was one of the top pharmaceutical companies in the southern region, andbecause of that, Jordan and Jeffrey had indulged in the unlimited glory and luxury.But now? In the blink of an eye, they had been sent to Mount Golmin and had become the docileginseng pickers. In fact, they had to spend the rest of their lives on the mountain! It couldn't bemore miserable than that!Meanwhile, Liam Weaver, Jordan's illegitimate son whose existence was almost invisible in thefamily, had suddenly become the head of the Weaver family and the chairman of WeaverPharmaceuticals. It was very shocking and astonishing!However, it was definitely a new chapter for Liam and the Weaver family as he started to take thelead of the family and the company.Besides, rumor had it that Don Albertt, the White family, the Quinton family, and even the Moorefamily were helping Liam to be elected as the chairman behind the scene.This proved that Liam shared some kind of a relationship with these prominent families, whichindicated that Liam's strength would be improved by multiple folds on the basis of the Weaverfamily.Before today, Liam was the target of bullies in Aurouss Hilll. As the illegitimate son, his status in thefamily was no better than the servants’.Whenever he was out with Jeffrey, many people bullied him for no reason. In fact, most of theminsulted him in order to please Jeffrey. They thought that Liam would not rise to a respectable statusdue to the suppression from his father and brother, but unexpectedly, he did rise up andimmediately moved his way up the social pyramid.So, starting from noon, many people came knocking on the Weaver family house's door. They camewith generous gifts to congratulate him on his appointment as chairman of WeaverPharmaceuticals.Among them were people who had tormented and beaten him. Not only did they prepare luxuriousgifts, but they also hoped that Liam could forgive them and not seek revenge after he came intopower.However, Liam had never ever borne the thought of retaliation. He treated everyone who hadinsulted him with a kind smile and sincerity because he remembered Charlie Wade's advice to notbecome the kind of person he hated the most!He saw the humiliation and oppression as a test from God. If it weren't for those horribleexperiences, he wouldn't have the good fortune to be supported by Master Wade and reachedwhere he was now.Therefore, he did not dare to be cocky, and he never wanted to.He wanted to be a low-key good man and manage the company well so that Master Wade wouldbe pleased by his growth. Besides, he hoped he could gain more experience and abilities to repayMaster Wade's favor.
