The Vengeful Son-in-law
Chapter 54

When Tom heard the sound, he turned around and saw her sitting on the ground with her faceburied in her knees. Her shoulders twitched. It seemed that she was crying. He walked back andsaid, "Hey, what are you doing?"

Megan did not speak and cried even louder. A couple who happened to pass by saw him andpointed at him. Tom was also embarrassed. He kicked Megan's foot and said, "Okay. Okay. Stopcrying. I'll take you home. Okay?"

"You can go. Let me die from coldness here alone.” Megan said angrily.

Tom rolled his eyes and felt helpless. "Okay, then you can stay here for a night.”

Megan sobbed and said, "I'll Phoebe that you bullied me."

Tom's mouth twitched. "How did I bully you?"

"I don't care. You're bullying me anyway!" Megan cried.

Tom wanted to leave several times. He wanted to leave Megan here alone but he still didn't dare todo that. If Megan, this crazy woman, really went to complain to Phoebe, then he would be finished."So what do you want?" Tom compromised.

Megan said, "I want you to carry me up."

Tom immediately frowned and said in a low voice, "Megan, don't go too far!"

"How could I go too far? I really can't walk anymore. My feet are swollen!" Megan said wrongly.Tom looked down and saw that Megan's feet were indeed a little swollen. Just now, as they walkedall the way over, he did not help Megan much so as to avoid making others misunderstandsomething. Speaking of her swollen feet, he was partly responsible to that.

He thought for a moment and said, "I can carry you up, but you can't threaten me with Phoebe inthe future, let alone tell Phoebe my identity.”

Megan immediately looked up and nodded hard. "OK, I promise you!"

She was so happy that she didn't expect Tom to really carry her. As for the request that Tom made,she had never thought of telling Phoebe Tom's true identity, okay? She wasn't that stupid.

Tom squatted down in front of her and said, "Come on up."

Megan was so happy that she quickly stood up and leaned on Tom.

She had absolute confidence in her figure, and Tom would definitely be tempted.

Sure enough, when Megan lay on his back, Tom immediately blushed.

Megan noticed this. She deliberately spoke in Tom's ear, which made Tom panic and flustered. Tomquickly told her to shut up.

Tom breathed a sigh of relief when he finally succeeded in sending Megan home. He found that hewas a little useless. He was even more tired than he had just had a fight in the bar. One shall knewthat he just sent a woman home now.

The point was that Megan was such a flirtatious woman. Along the way, Tom was like being in a war,almost losing control of himself several times.

Fortunately, his willpower was strong enough.

After putting Megan down, he didn't give Megan a chance to ask him to stay. He ran away and letMegan call him from behind without turning back.

Megan called him several times, but she didn't stop him. She angrily picked up the pillow andpounded it. She was very regretful. If she had known, she shouldn't have gotten off Tom's back justnow.

After a while, she thought of something, and the corners of her mouth slowly rose again and a slysmile appeared on her face. "Tom, even if you run this time, so what? Can you run next time? Youcan't always run away like you did today. I already know your weakness. Next time, I'll definitelysucceed! Hehe..."

Tom run out of Megan's house. But he felt surprised as he found that he was sweating. Megan hadindeed put too much pressure on him just now.

At this moment, his cell phone rang. He took it out and found that it was Phoebe who called him.He suspected that he was wrong. Phoebe rarely called him.

After answering the phone, Phoebe's pleasant voice immediately came from the phone, "Where areyou? You're not back yet?"

Tom looked around and didn’t recognize where it was, so he said, "I'm doing a business outside. I'llbe right back.”

"Buy a bottle of shampoo. We don't have any at home." After Phoebe finished speaking, she hungup the phone. After a while, Tom's WhatsApp received a red packet from Phoebe, accompanied bythe name of the shampoo brand and the purchase address.

Tom didn't open a red packet. He had plenty of money now. Not to mention a bottle of shampoo, itwould take minutes for him to buy the company that produced it.

After buying shampoo, Phoebe said, "Why don't you take my red packet?"

Tom smiled and said, "I'm working now. I have money."

Phoebe nodded and walked over to pick up the shampoo in Tom's hand. But immediately, shesmelled a woman's scent on Tom's body. She immediately frowned and her face darkened a lot. Shesaid, "Where did you go to talk about business?"

Before Tom could react, he said, "I'll take the owner to see the house. It's a nearby building."Phoebe said with a half-smile, "Is the client a man or a woman?"

Tom said, "Of course it's a man, honey. Don't worry, I don't have female clients.”

However, Phoebe's face suddenly turned cold and she stared at Tom in disgust. "Tom, please, nexttime you go fooling around, can you clean up the stench on your body first? Don't bring thisdisgusting stench into my house!"

Tom was stunned and said, "Honey, what did you say? Why can't I understand?”

Phoebe's expression became even colder, and her eyes were filled with disgust and disdain as shelooked at Tom. "Still pretend? Then tell me where does the smell which belongs to a woman on yourbody come from?"

Tom secretly said, "Damn it." He had been carrying Megan on his back all night and had her scenton his clothes.

"Honey, listen to me. It's not what you think..." Tom said hurriedly.

Phoebe folded her arms around her chest. "Okay, explain it to me. What's going on?"

Tom stammered, unable to give a quick and clear explanation.

"What happened? Can't you say it?" Phoebe sneered with disdain on her face, "Tom, I knew youweren't a good person. If you have some money, you will go out and drink. Megan is right. Men arenever good, including you!"

Speaking of this, a cold figure flashed through Phoebe's mind. "Except the chairman of ZQ.” Sheadded in her heart.

Tom was speechless. He was in inarticulate misery and could not explain. He wanted to explain thatthe smell on his body was Megan's, and his relationship with Megan was very clean.

But he knew that once he said that, the consequences would only be worse!

He was not a good liar. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of a perfect excuse."Honey, please believe me. I really didn't do anything wrong to you!" Tom looked deeply at Phoebe,trying to move Phoebe with his sincerity.

Unfortunately, he failed. Phoebe didn't even want to see him anymore. She snorted impatiently andsaid, "Stop. Put away your hypocrisy. I don't care what you did outside. I just want to tell you thatthis is my home. If you do those things in the future, please do not go back to my home, lest youdirty my home!"

Tom was anxious. "Honey, I believe that you and the chairman of ZQ are innocent. Why don't youbelieve me?"

Tom regretted upon he said this. Sure enough, Phoebe's expression became gloomy at a speedvisible to the naked eye.

"Honey, I didn't mean that..."

Phoebe glared at him, "Tom, this is what you did to get back at me, right? You think I've beendefiled, so you want to fool around outside to get back at me?"

Tom became even more anxious and quickly explained, "Honey, you misunderstood. I really didn'tmean that!"

"Enough!" Phoebe took a deep breath. She was expressionless with no emotion in her eyes. "I knowyou won't believe me. None of you believe me. I don't care. Tonight is the first time. I won't arguewith you. Next time, if you mess around outside and don't clean up your smell, don't come back! Iwon't interfere in your private life, but please respect me!"

After saying this, Phoebe turned around and left. Before entering the room, she added, "You cancontinue sleeping in the living room tonight. I don't want to smell that disgusting smell.”
