The Vengeful Son-in-law -
Chapter 488
All of a sudden, the other three looked at Tom with disdain.
"Okay." Tom didn’t seem to notice Roger's sarcasm. He smiled and agreed. Tom's reaction madeRoger look down on him even more. He believed that Tom was just an ordinary man, but he waslucky to marry a beautiful woman like Phoebe.
Phoebe was furious. She snorted and said, "Thank you, Mr. Shear. It's just a member of the AliceRestaurant. We haven't taken it to heart yet."
She was telling the truth. As long as she wanted, she could let Tom start a restaurant much betterthan Alice Restaurant. Besides, she didn't like Roger's pretentious appearance.
However, in their opinion, her words was an expression of anger and embarrassment, blindlydefending Tom.
It was obvious that Roger often came here to have meals. Even the manager knew him. When hesaw him coming over, he made a welcoming gesture and called President Zhu respectfully. He justglanced at Tom and Phoebe and realized that they were Roger's friends, so he didn't ask them morequestions. Instead, he led them directly to VIP seats.
These seats were not very central but at the corner. The space was large, and the environment wasvery elegant.
"Order whatever you want. It is on me." Roger said proudly, then said to the manager, "ManagerTann, is Clarissa here? When will she start her performance?”
Manager Tann said with a smile, "Miss Brown has arrived. In about 20 minutes, when most of thedistinguished guests arrive, Miss Brown will appear and sing.”
Roger's eyes flashed with excitement. He was very excited and in high spirits. He had been lookingforward to Clarissa's performance soon. Not only could he see a big star, but he could also make agood show in front of Phoebe! He believed that as long as Phoebe saw his power, he woulddefinitely leave an impression in her heart. Once she was impressed, then his next move would gosmooth .
He was very talented in flirting with girls. Playing a long game, he could definitely conquer Phoebe,the super beauty in the world!
The other three people, hearing that Clarissa would appear in 20 minutes, also had their eyes lit upand began to look forward to it, including Phoebe. To them, Clarissa was their idol. They could oftenhear the popular songs Clarissa sang, the TV series she played, and a lot of variety shows. Even nowthat Phoebe was the president, she was still a fan of Clarissa.
Tom didn't quite understand them at all. In his opinion, celebrities were nobody. Clarissa was a bigstar, but she had to be respectful in front of him. Smith, the super international movie star, died inhis hands.
But Phoebe liked Clarissa. In order to fulfill Phoebe's wish, he didn't mind inviting Clarissa over inthe name of the chairman of the ZQ Media and asked her to sign for Phoebe.
At this moment, the two female friends winked at Phoebe and invited Phoebe to go to thebathroom. Thinking that she had drunk a lot of water just now, she just wanted to pee, so shenodded and went to the bathroom with them.
When she got to the bathroom, one of her female friends said to Phoebe, "Phoebe, what does yourhusband do?"
Phoebe said, "I've already told you. He owns a company.”
"Come on, we've been friends for so many years. There's nothing to hide.”
Another female friend also said, "Yes, there are just us. Just tell us the truth.”
Phoebe said with a helpless smile, "I didn't lie to you. My husband is really the chairman of the ZQMedia. If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself. It is a listed company, you can replace outeasily.”
When the two female friends saw how absolute Phoebe was, they looked at each other and did notbelieve her. Instead, they confirmed their own conjecture that Phoebe’s husband happened to bethe same name as the chairman of the ZQ Media, so they could not replace anything on the Internet.Or else, it was Phoebe's husband who pretended to be the chairman of the ZQ Media.
But Phoebe had already said that, and they couldn't continue arguing, so they changed the topicand said, "Phoebe, I think Roger is interested in you. Don't you think about it? He's from W City, richand handsome. He came to H City to develop. He's young and promising.”
"Yes, although you're married, you haven't given birth yet. Besides, you're still in good shape. I'msure Roger won't mind if you take the chance actively.”
When Phoebe heard this, she couldn't stand it anymore. The more they spoke, the more ridiculousthey became!
She said with a serious face, "Hey, Violette, Chloe, that's enough! I treated you as good friends. I'vebeen tolerating you all this time, and now you still say that! If you keep doing this, I'll be angry!”Violette and Chloe saw that Phoebe turned to be angry and scolded them like this. They couldn'ttake it. Violette frowned and said, "Phoebe, do you have to lose your temper with us like this? We'vebeen good friends for so many years, and what we just said was for your own good. Everyone couldtell that your husband is just an ordinary man. Chairman of the ZQ Media? Bullshit. Who wouldbelieve that? We're not fools.”
Chloe also said, "That's right. Do you think we're idiots? If he is really a big boss, how could he be soembarrassed that he can't even afford shoes? I think he's a beggar. We get you and Roger togetherfor your own good. Roger is much better than Tom."
Phoebe was very angry at this, but she could not say anything to refute them. Tom lookedembarrassed today. She had known Tom for so long, and she had not seen Tom like that.
"Believe it or not! I won't betray my husband anyway. If you mention this later, don't blame me forfalling out with you!" Phoebe said coldly.
Violette and Chloe were also a little angry, thinking that Phoebe didn't take their favor, but theywere more gloating than others. Phoebe was indeed beautiful, so what. In the end, she married anordinary man. Thinking about it, they felt comfortable.
To Tom, Roger also revealed his true colors. He crossed his legs and raised his head, looking at Tomwith disdain without hiding his arrogance and contempt. He said, "You are Tom, right? Now thatthere are only men left as all the women are gone, I'll talk to you in man's way.”
Tom looked at him with a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Really? What do you want to say?"
Roger said with a condescending attitude, "Phoebe, I like you. You can make a price."
