The Vengeful Son-in-law
Chapter 59

After a while, Duncan and his family couldn't stay any longer and left dejectedly.

They were supposed to stay for lunch, but the minister's call just now made them so embarrassed,especially Duncan. His was the most embarrassed one. Staying here for another second was a kindof torture!

He couldn't eat here at all, so he quickly found an excuse to slink away.

After they left, Tom couldn't help but laugh.

Phoebe had the same feeling.

Elizabeth said unhappily, "Is it funny? Although he was fired by ZQ Company, he was positive andambitious at least. He was much better than you. You actually became a real estate agent! What adisgrace to my Scott Family!"

Tom was confused. Was it very embarrassing? He thought it was pretty good. At least he mademoney by working. He didn't steal or rob anything. He was better than those who were sneakingaround, right?

"Mom, it's not embarrassing for you to be a real estate agent. I gain money with my own hands.”Tom said unhappily.

Elizabeth said, "Oh, trash, how dare you retort? Now the real estate market is not good, so howmuch money can you gain in a month? It's a shame if you can't make money!"

Tom really didn't know what to say about Elizabeth's views, so he could only say nothing.

While Tom was cooking, Elizabeth pulled Phoebe aside and said with a gossipy expression, "So, thechairman of ZQ Company was really rich!"

As her daughter, Phoebe immediately what Elizabeth was up to. She said, "Mom, don't think aboutit. That chairman won't like me."

When she said this, she couldn't help but feel upset and frustrated.

"Maybe not." Elizabeth said, "Phoebe, you should have confidence in yourself. Look at you. You're sobeautiful, much prettier than many celebrities. You have a good figure and you are well-educatedwith a good temperament. Men drool when they see you. That chairman is a man, so he willdefinitely like you too."

After hearing this, Phoebe had a glimmer of hope, but she immediately shook her head and saidwith a bitter smile, "It's useless. Brother Duncan had said, as a golden bachelor like him, there is noshortage of women around. As long as he needs it, numerous women would run to him. How wouldhe pick me, an ordinary woman? Besides, as the chairman of Zijiong Film Company, his companyhas so many popular actresses. I have no chance.”

Elizabeth peeked at Tom in the kitchen, seeing that he was not eavesdropping, and then she said ina louder voice, "No. I know the psychology of men very well. It's because that chairman is used toseeing those immodest women outside, so he will be interested in a virtuous young woman likeyou. Besides, he didn't touch you when you went to ZQ Company that day, yet he lent you 20million dollars without having to write an IOU? This means that he must be interested in you!"Phoebe could not help but feel shaken when she found Elizabeth said seriously. Could it be that theman really had different feelings for her?

With that in mind, she looked back at Tom in the kitchen, swallowed her saliva, and said, "Mom,actually, there's one more thing I didn't tell you. A few days ago, I went to Brian's birthday, but..."Then she told Elizabeth the whole story of attending Brian's birthday that day. She told her motherthat she was being drugged by Brian, almost losing her virginity. However, finally, she was saved bythe chairman of ZQ Company. "It seemed that he knows me."

After hearing this, Elizabeth immediately clapped her hands in excitement and said, “That must be it!The chairman of ZQ Company must be interested in you, otherwise, why would he spare no effort tosave you! Besides, think about it, if he wasn't secretly protected you, how could he know that youwere in trouble at Golden Dragon KTV and save you? So, he must have liked you! Or is he trying toplay cat and mouse and waiting for you to look for him?"

Speaking of this, Elizabeth's face turned red with excitement. She kept rubbing her hands andpressing Phoebe's shoulder. "You're gonna be rich! The chairman of ZQ Company, with tens ofbillions of dollars in wealth, likes you! Don't be hesitant! Divorce Tom and go replace him!"

Tom was in the kitchen and heard something, but he didn't hear it clearly. He walked out curiously.Phoebe happened to see this scene, so she could not help but panic in her heart, and then pulledElizabeth into the room, and closed the door, "Mom, I think things are not as simple as you say. Heknew I had a husband, and, moreover, he has said several times that I should replace my own husband.If he really likes me, why does he keep mentioning my husband? Besides, a man like him will not beinterested in me as a married woman at all."

Elizabeth was lost in thought when she heard this. She paced back and forth, then her eyessuddenly lit up. "I see! He was a special type!"

Phoebe was confused when she heard this. "Mom, what are you talking about? *

"You're stupid. He was special because he only likes other's wife. He doesn't like girls yet." Elizabethsaid seriously, "In my opinion, he belongs to this special type. Thus, you can't divorce Tom and youshould maintain a marriage relationship, and then contact that chairman. Take the initiative, and youwill definitely win his heart!"

Phoebe's face blushed when she heard this. "Mom! How can you say such a thing? How shameless!What do you think I am? Although I don't like Tom, I can't agree with you asking me to do such athing! Besides, it's not fair to Tom."

Elizabeth poked Phoebe on the forehead and said, "So you're stupid. Just don't let Tom know!Besides, you and Tom are just a fake couple, so you don't have to be a virgin for him. As long as youhave a relationship with that chairman and kick Tom away, who knows what you've done?"

"No, no!" Phoebe shook her head desperately and rejected Elizabeth's ridiculous idea.

Elizabeth wanted to say some other thing, but she was kicked out of the room by her daughter.Phoebe stayed in the room and looked at the wedding photos of her and Tom hanging by the bed.She felt extremely complicated.

"Tom, how good would it be if you were the chairman of ZQ Company? Then I don't have to sufferlike this..."
