The Vengeful Son-in-law -
Chapter 128
Even Kaylie's expression was a little unnatural. She knew that Tom was married or that he was theson-in-law of the Scotts. But now that she was Tom's plus one, others’ flirty gaze made her feelembarrassed.
So she let go of Tom's arm.
Tom saw her secret actions, but he did not blame her or get angry. It was normal for her to do that.After all, Kaylie was unmarried and had a good upbringing in a rich family. It was reasonable thatshe was shy.
Tom didn't expect that they would see Charles when they came to a random place to buy cars. Butsince he had met him, Tom didn't flinch. He smiled and said, "Charles, didn't you run a company andyou claim it earns millions a year? Why are you here selling cars?"
This was Charles's soft spot, and he went grim immediately. He gritted his teeth and wanted toscold him, but when he saw Tom's half-smile and posture showing he was ready to hit him at anytime, he was frightened again and snorted heavily, "It's none of your business! But you..."
Tom interrupted him and said jokingly, "So your company went bankrupt. Could it be that after thatnight, you started to have bad luck?"
Charles's face turned livid. Tom looked so mean! He was so angry that his face was distorted."Bullshit! Who said my company went bankrupt? I just came here to experience a different kind oflife!"
He was obviously flustered and began to talk incoherently. What he said was illogical. Anyonereasonable could tell that Tom was right. Charles was really down and out. He was no longer a boss,but a car seller.
Selling cars was not shameful. After all, this was just a job, but it was too shameful for a materialistlike Charles. So he didn't say he used to run a company when he came here to work as the salesmanager.
At this moment, those salespeople were looking at him gloatingly, which made him extremelyuncomfortable! Clenching his fists, he wanted to punch Tom in the face, but he didn't dare. Once hedid it first, Tom's beating him back was self-defense.
Fortunately, he had experienced much, and he was tougher in mind than ordinary people. He took adeep breath, quickly calmed down, and said with a cold smile, "But I am better than you, a good-for-nothing! Tom, you are so shameless. You depend on Phoebe for food and everything. You dareto pick up girls with Phoebe’s money? And you dare to buy this woman a car worth 800,000 dollars?What a big disgrace you are!"
It had to be said that his words were very vicious. Immediately, everyone around him began to pointat Tom, their words full of contempt and condemnation.
"I really can't see. This Tom looks like a real man, but he's so shameless. How dare he take his wife'smoney to have a mistress?"
"That's right. He is such a brute under a human mask..."
"I remember. This Tom is the son-in-law of the Scotts. He was very famous in our H City severalyears ago!" A voice broke out in the crowd and immediately attracted the attention of others.
"Yes! Right! I remember it, too. The Scotts does have a son-in-law who stays at home all day. Hedoesn't want to replace a job, so he stays at home to do housework. I heard that he washes underwearfor his mother-in-law. Hahaha..."
"Damn, really? It's too exciting. Is this real? Such a useless man in modern society? This blows mymind!"
"Tom's wife is very beautiful. Her name is Phoebe, and she’s one of the three beauties in H City!""This Tom is so shameless..."
For a moment, many people around them began to discuss heatedly, condemning and disdainingTom.
Tom felt quite helpless. He felt he was attracting more unnecessary attention no matter where hewent. He could do nothing about it. Almost everyone in the H City knew he was the son-in-law ofthe Scotts. He had also been on the H City Daily, so many people heard about his name even if theydidn't know what he looked like.
Kaylie listened to the discussions around her, and her face kept changing. There were some changesin her eyes when she looked at Tom.
"What? You think I'm such a person?” Tom asked Kaylie with a smile.
"No, no..." Kaylie shook her head hurriedly, but she did not dare to look Tom in the eye and loweredher head.
Tom smiled calmly. He didn't take it seriously. He just felt that gossip was a fearful thing.
Hearing people around him criticizing Tom, Charles smiled so happily. More than half of his grudgesthese years disappeared at this moment!
"Tom, I really feel bad for Phoebe. I am wondering what will happen to you if I tell Phoebe aboutthis." Charles said jokingly.
As he spoke, he took out his phone and pretended to call Phoebe.
Seeing this, Kaylie was even more embarrassed. She was a shy person and had never encounteredsuch a thing.
Tom smiled and said, "Charles, look at you. You look like a smug clown. In the past, Phoebe had ahigh opinion of you. I didn't expect you to be so narrow-minded. Just because you are living a badlife, when you see others’ life is better than you, you feel uncomfortable. You choose to bite peoplelike crazy dogs.”
Charles's face suddenly changed and he became even angrier. Tom's words hit him hard, causinghim to become pissed all of a sudden. "Okay, you don't want to accept the truth, do you? I'll callyour wife now and see how you will pay for what you did today!"
Tom frowned slightly. He was not guilty, but felt that it was not a good time to disturb Phoebe forthis kind of thing. Phoebe was still angry with him. He then said, "All right, Charles, stop it. You justhave a grudge against me for teaching you a lesson last time. I apologize to you, OK? Don't tellPhoebe. She's in a bad mood now."
When Charles heard that, he thought Tom was being guilty. Suddenly, he burst out laughing. "Nowyou are afraid? Hahaha... But it's too late! You just wait to be scolded by Phoebe. As a son-in-law,you don't know what you shouldn't do. How dare you take your wife's money and mess around withother women? I'll see how you die this time!"
After that, he dialed Phoebe's number. He also deliberately turned on the speaker so that everyonecould hear the conversation.
