Chapter 524 He Really Is Our Live In Son In Law

When Henry looked over at the man kneeling in front of Alex, he could not tell who was from the rear.

However, the sight of Alex immediately roused a smidgen of hatred in Henry's eyes,

Coincidentally, Warner turned around at this instant, allowing Henry to recognize him in no uncertain terms. That gave the latter a positive fright.

What's this here! Why on earth would the butler of the Grant family bow to this good-for-nothing Alex Jefferson?

Henry rubbed his eyes in the belief that they might be playing tricks on him.

"W-What's this about, Mr. Green?" Henry asked, perplexed.

"So it's you!"

Warner then pointed toward Harper. "Is this your wife? Let me tell you this. They've crossed Mr. Jefferson today. Even the gods won't be able to save them!"

"Huh?"

Henry was taken aback. "I don't understand, Mr. Green. He's just a live-in son-in-law, so why are you kneeling before him?"

Warner was in a righteous fit. This dastardly thing is still insulting Mr. Jefferson at a time like this. He really has no idea what kind of trouble he's gotten himself into! Not only is Mr. Jefferson a multi-billionaire, but he's also the big shot that every Grant wants to get in with. Isn't this little prick suicidal by calling him a good-for-nothing to his face?

With that in mind, Warner got back up quickly and closed in on Henry within two or three strides. The first thing he did at the end of it was to send one tight slap across the latter's face. Following that, he turned to the security guard beside him. "Get the three of them down on their knees to apologize to Mr. Jefferson!"

The clueless Henry's befuddlement only grew when Warner raised his hand and delivered another backhand across his other cheek.

He had seriously thought Warner and his own father were not only acquainted but on solid terms as well!

However, he had no time to seek clarification as he was forced to the ground by two security guards.

At the same time, the previously self-assured Harper and Jacob, too, were compelled to join him in humbling themselves before Alex.

The two siblings were stunned. Did Henry not say that he knew Warner? Why then did the man show such blatant disregard for him?

Warner then turned to regard Alex diffidently. "I've already had these ignoramuses who dared cross you subdued, Mr. Jefferson. May I know how you would like for them to be dealt with?"

Alex replied impassively, "I'm not someone who enjoys going around picking on others, but I won't back down from anyone who tries to push my buttons. This supreme VIP card was previously given to me by Ms. Grant herself. She said that the status of Supreme VIP was one that was specially conferred as an expression of her esteem toward me. Who would have expected for that to be dismissed as the mere fabrication of some idiot? Isn't that tantamount to them calling Ms. Grant a fool?"

Warner's face grew severe as he glanced back at Jacob and Harper. "Are you tired of living, daring to insult Ms. Grant like that? Do you believe that I can bankrupt your entire family myself?" The duo was shaking in their boots as they did not expect the card to be genuine!

That made it even more incomprehensible to them how their own live-in son-in-law Alex could have garnered such respect from the Grants.

The mortified Jacob promptly tried to push the blame for the whole shenanigans unto Harper beside him. which led the stammering Harper to speak in her own defense. "He was the one who said that and not me, Mr. Green! I've nothing to do with this!"

Harper glared at her own older brother in dismay for doing this to her."

Not only was she afraid, but she was also furious as well, for the feeling of being betrayed by her own kin was worse than death to her.

Harper was not going to just roll over like that.

She purposefully acted aggrieved. "There is absolutely no description of this so-called Supreme VIP status on the information displayed at the ground floor lobby, Mr. Green, therefore I'm sure Alex has made this up. You mustn't fall for his trickery!"

"That's right, Mr. Green. You may not be aware of who Alex Jefferson is, but I am. He really is the Jenningses' live-in son-in-law-a useless man who practically sponges off his own wife. The gall of him to fabricate this membership status, showing no respect whatsoever to both you and the Jennings family. It's truly despicable!" Jacob hurriedly added, and the two siblings smirked confidently as they went along. The ruthless duo was convinced that Warner would be able to uncover Alex's deception should he delve deeper into it.

However, the one point they were missing was the relationship between Alex and the Grant family, as well as the truth behind Alex's real identity.
