The Vengeful Son-in-law
Chapter 68

Tom said this to Phoebe, but another person next to him heard his words and stared at him withwide eyes. "What? You don't even know Forrest?"

"Ridiculous! You don't even know Forrest? Phoebe, is your husband a martian?"

"Wait, what did he just say? Forrest is an unknown star? That's hilarious! Tom is incompetent butarrogant.”

The people around them began to laugh at Tom, as if they were looking at a retarded person.Some of Forrest's female fans, in particular, did not like Tom at all. They felt that Tom was foolishand arrogant, and they could not believe he dared to regard Forrest as an unknown star. Even ifthere was a scandal about him six months ago and he had been keeping a low profile recently, hewas still a superstar. Moreover, it was hard for ordinary people to see him.

Phoebe was so angry with Tom that she pinched him. "I beg you, can you keep quiet? You doembarrass me."

Tom said innocently, "I'm just asking something about Forrest who played a role in “Like a Dream".Why did that embarrass you?"

"How dare you talk back!" Phoebe glared at him. "There are a few youths who don't know Forrest.How dare you say that he's noteless. You did that on purpose. I shouldn't have brought you here!"Tom rolled his eyes, feeling helpless. “I'm not wrong. Forrest is really unfamous, and he's the kind ofactor who has almost been forgotten. If he sees me, he has to be respectful.”

Tom didn't brag. He saw Forrest two days ago, but he remembered very well that in the end, Forrestwas about to cry.

If Forrest saw him now, Forrest would have to kneel down and beg for his forgiveness.

It could not be denied that sometimes the world was really small. Who would have thought thatTom could meet Forrest when he accompanied Phoebe to a class reunion?

But when Tom told the truth, Phoebe thought he was shameless.

When the others heard this, they laughed at him and regarded him as a psychopath.

"Hey, everyone, please calm down and let me tell you something interesting!"

A fat young lady stood up, clapped her hands, and said loudly to everyone. All of a sudden,everyone looked over.

She continued, "Just now, Phoebe's husband said that Forrest is obscure, and Forrest has been out-dated. If Forrest sees him, Forrest has to be respectful to him! So, you guys just misunderstood him.Tom is not a useless person, but a hidden big boss! Even Forrest has to give him respect..."

She said in a strange tone and she ended her words by throwing Tom a teasing look.

After her words, people burst into laughter, and the atmosphere in the hall was extremely joyous fora moment.

Charles was stunned for a moment, and then he also burst out laughing till tears came. Tom was afool. He could even say such ridiculous words. Charles was afraid that there was something wrongwith Tom's brain! And he wondered why Phoebe found such an idiot as her husband.

Phoebe's face turned red all of a sudden. She really couldn't stand Tom anymore. If there was acrack in the ground now, she wouldn't hesitate to get in. It was so embarrassing! What did she do inher previous life so that she married Tom?

At this moment, her eyes were red and her nose was sore. She really wanted to cry.

When Tom saw her like this, he fell silent and sighed. He was already very low-key. Why was healways provoked by some fools? He could not help but sigh. Could it be that he was a jinx so thathe would cause a’ bloody storm’ wherever he went?

Tom held Phoebe's hand and said seriously, "Phoebe, don't worry. I won't embarrass you this time.”Unfortunately, Phoebe didn't believe him at all. She flung his hand away and scolded angrily, "Don'ttouch me. I'm so angry that I've had enough!"

After saying this, she stood up and left.

Tom asked, "Phoebe, where are you going?”

"None of your business!" Phoebe went into the bathroom without looking back.

After Phoebe left, Tom became the only laughing point in the crowd.

Of course, Tom would not be affected by them. Not only was he not angry, but he smiledthoughtfully. He was looking forward to those people's reactions when Forrest arrived.

Seeing his calmness, others just thought Tom was shameless, and they hated him more.

Just then, Charles received a phone call and stood up with surprise and excitement. "You've arrived?Okay. I'll pick you up right away!"

After hanging up the phone, he took a deep breath, smiled, and said to everyone, "Tell you a pieceof good news. Forrest is here. He will be right there.”

"Wow!"

"Here comes the superstar!”

"I'm so excited!"

The atmosphere at the scene reached a peak, and everyone was excited.

Only Tom shook his head secretly, thinking that this group of people was too boring. And he didn'tunderstand why they were as excited as they met a god when Forrest arrived. Was it necessary?Charles deliberately gave Tom a mocking look and went out to meet Forrest.

Not long after, a group of people appeared at the door. Hundreds of people came in with a youngand handsome man. It was Forrest that Tom had met not long ago.

Now Forrest had regained his elegant demeanor. His face was clean and white, and his thick bangscovered his forehead, looking like a Korean handsome young boy.

Apart from him, agent Ms Gomez, his assistant and two bodyguards were there.

Now Forrest looked radiant and smiled brightly. In the face of so many people's worship, hisoriginally depressed mood finally disappeared.

Ever since he offended Tom that day and was banned by ZQ Film Studios, he had been depressed,agitated, and had insomnia. He was in a particularly bad mood and felt that his star life almostfinished.

He really wanted to apologize to president of ZQ. And he even would like to kneel down andkowtow to admit his mistake!

However, the president of ZQ was mysterious. Forrest had no chance to see him at all. In the pasttwo days, agent Ms Gomez had been seeking help from someone they were familiar with, but noone would like to do them a favor. Elliot even directly blacked them out.

Forrest really regretted what he had done. If he was given a chance to come back, he would notoffend that unimpressive young man!

Alas, if it weren't for offending the president of ZQ, no matter how depressed he was, he wouldn'thave come here to sing for a million dollars!

Charles obviously didn't know this. He received Forrest and came in together. Facing so manypeople's worship and admiration, Charles felt refreshed and walked more vigorously.

"Forrest, it's our honor to invite you to come over and sing for us. We are so happy!" Charlesflattered.

"Charles, thank you for inviting me." Forrest said with a smile, maintaining a haughty posture.

It was undeniable that Forrest was quite handsome. Many girls tried their best to squeeze in andkept calling Forrest's name. If it weren't for the bodyguards, they would have jumped on him.

As long as they walked into the hotel, Charles changed his voice and said in a teasing tone, "Forrest,before you sing, I want to take you to see someone.”

"Who is it?" Forrest was a little curious.

Charles coughed twice, and the smile on his face became even more intense. "This man is thehusband of a classmate of mine. Just now, he told us that you were just an unfamous star who hadbeen behind the times. And he even told us that when you saw him, you would be respectful to him,not daring to make a scene in front of him..."
