The Vengeful Son-in-law -
Chapter 105
When Tom saw Cal's confused expression, he was shocked. Could Cal really recognize him?!
If he was recognized, his plan would be in trouble.
To be honest, Tom didn't want to get involved with the Howards now, nor did he want Phoebe toknow that he was a member of the Howards
Fortunately, Cal didn't know him well, and the confusion in his eyes quickly disappeared.
Rory was holding back his grievances. Hearing Tom's words, he laughed. "Do you know howvaluable the blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty is? How dare you say that!"
He didn't think Tom was showing off but thought he was just being a fool. He dared to say so. Hehad investigated Tom clearly. He was just a poor man from the countryside. A poor person like Tomcould not afford the modern blue and white porcelain, not to mention one of the Ming Dynasty. Itwas even funnier to say that someone gave it to him as a gift.
Tom smiled and said, "I know. Didn't you just say it was worth more than ten million dollars?"Damn Tom, he was mocking him again! Rory was furious.
When James and Elizabeth saw how determined Tom was, they glared at him angrily, thinking thatTom was embarrassing them
Cal didn't really believe it either. In his opinion, Tom was from an ordinary family. How could he ownsuch a rare blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty? He didn't want to waste time here andwanted to leave.
However, Rory had just lost face. Now that he finally had the chance to embrace Tom, how could helet it go easily? If Tom also showed them a fake, it would definitely offset his previous awkward andbad impression, so he quickly said, "Mr. Hall, please wait a moment. You might as well stay and seeif Tom can really have the blue and white porcelain of Ming Dynasty."
"Well..." Cal was a little unhappy. He didn't believe that Tom could own such valuable porcelain.James said, "Rory, you really believe that Tom can show us the blue and white porcelain of MingDynasty? He's just an ordinary person. Who would give him such a precious gift? Mr. Hall, if youwant to leave, just leave. Don't be delayed by us.”
Rory said, "Well, that's not the case. Uncle, didn't you see Tom's confident look just now? And hecalled out that his wasn't a fake! I admit I was deceived. I spent more than ten million dollars to buya fake. I was humiliated. But I, Rory, can't be humiliated by anyone!"
Phoebe began to get anxious and pinched Tom fiercely. Rory was already humiliated, but Tom stilljumped out to say this. Would he want to be humiliated too?
Elizabeth glared at Tom and said, "You trash, what nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up andapologize to Rory!"
Tom was speechless. He didn't insult Rory. Why should he apologize to Rory? His mother-in-law'sthinking ways were "new and unique”.
"Rory, you don't believe that I can own a genuine blue and white porcelain of Ming Dynasty?" Tomtook a step forward and said to Rory.
Rory straightened his back and said disdainfully, "Of course!"
"What if I have one?" Tom said his purpose, and a cunning look flashed in his eyes. If it was Dylan,he would not dare to fight with him when he saw his eyes.
Unfortunately, Rory was not Dylan. He didn't know Tom well and didn't take Tom seriously at all. Hesneered and said, "If you can take out a genuine blue and white porcelain of Ming Dynasty, then I'llkowtow to you, plead guilty and call you grandpa a hundred times!"
Tom said awkwardly, "Isn't that appropriate? You're a friend of Phoebe and you're older than me. It'sso embarrassing for you to call me grandpa.”
Rory's mouth twitched when he saw Tom's despicable look, and he was angry. He snorted, "Youdon't have to put on airs there. It's disgusting! My promise is based on the fact that you can show agenuine blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty! If you can't... I don't need you to kowtowand apologize to me. I just want you to divorce Phoebe right away. Phoebe deserves a better man!"His last words were deliberately loud, and his eyes were still on Phoebe affectionately, causingothers to have goosebumps.
"This... Is it too much?" Tom frowned and said angrily.
Rory was immediately overjoyed and thought that Tom was losing confidence. He immediately tookadvantage of his lack of confidence. "Why? Are you afraid? You are deliberately trying to make afuss. There is no genuine blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty! Don't you feelembarrassed? Bah!"
He looked at Tom with disdain.
James and Elizabeth were immediately affected by Rory, and their words to Tom became evenharsher.
Tom showed a disdainful expression and said, "Are you kidding me? A genuine blue and whiteporcelain of the Ming Dynasty is in my car. I will bring it to you immediately. I'm afraid you'll goback on your word!"
Rory laughed again. "I will go back on my word? What a joke!"
Tom narrowed his eyes and said, "There's no evidence. If you cheat, I can't do anything to you. Youhave to write a note and sign your name. Also, I'll show you a genuine blue and white porcelain ofthe Ming Dynasty later. If you don't admit it to be true, then I can't do anything to you.”
Rory didn't realize that Tom was trapping him step by step. "You're just trying to be petty! Mr. Hall ishere. He's a master in the antique industry. If Mr. Hall identified it to be genuine, then I'll fulfill mypromise immediately! But how about you, what if you don't admit it?"
Tom blinked and smiled, "It's very simple. I'll take Mr. Hall's judgment as the basis and never goback on my word. Anyway, in one word, one who eats his word or cheats is a dog. He would bepunished. He will die a horrible way. His son will be disabled, okay?"
When others heard Tom's words, they gasped and said in secret how cruel he was!
Rory saw Tom's cunning look. For some reason, he had a bad feeling that this trash Tom couldreally.
Soon, he got rid of this idea!
It was impossible. Even his connection couldn't easily help him get the blue and white porcelain ofthe Ming Dynasty. It was even more impossible for Tom, this loser.
This was definitely Tom's bluff.
It must be!
"Okay, one who eats his word is dog!" Rory insisted.
A “grand gamble’ began.
Phoebe was so anxious, for Tom was so arrogant that he could even make such a bet. Wasn't helooking for his own death?
Mr. Hall was going to leave, but in this situation, it was not easy for him to leave, so he could onlystay helplessly.
At the same time, he also had an unrealistic hope in his heart. What if this young man named Tomcould really have a blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty ?
