The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 501-505
Chapter 501
Jeffrey was stunned when his father, Jordan, and Kenneth simultaneously slapped him for questioning Charlie Wade's identity. He understood Kenneth's anger—he'd given Kenneth the medicine that caused his current state. But Jordan's actions were shocking; he’d rarely disciplined Jeffrey before.
Covering his face, Jeffrey asked, "Dad! Why did you hit me? Did I do something wrong?"
Jordan roared, "Shut up!" He cursed inwardly, frustrated by Jeffrey's lack of judgment. Anthony also served Charlie Wade, making Wade the Weaver family's only hope. Even if Wade was "trash," he couldn't be offended.
Jordan quickly apologized to Charlie Wade, "Mr. Wade, I've dealt with Jeffrey. Please forgive him."
Kenneth, equally panicked, kicked Jeffrey before coldly warning, "Stop talking! If you offend Grandpa Wade, I'll kill you!"
Jeffrey screamed as he was sent flying. Kenneth then groveled before Charlie Wade, "Grandpa Wade, ignore him. Please treat me!"
Jeffrey was bewildered. Wade was a supposedly useless son-in-law who used "Feng Shui tricks" to deceive the wealthy. Why was he being punished for telling the truth?
Charlie Wade responded coldly, "If Liam hadn't begged me, I wouldn't be here. Liam deserves all the credit for resolving your family crisis."
Jordan hastily praised Liam, promising to remember his contribution. Liam, thrilled, believed curing Kenneth would make him Weaver Pharmaceuticals' chairman. However, Jordan harbored other plans. Liam was Jordan's illegitimate son with a village woman, a child he'd always despised. Jordan's promise to make Liam chairman was a ploy to motivate Jeffrey. He had no intention of fulfilling it.
Chapter 502
Jordan considered Liam nothing more than a mistake, an illegitimate child born from a casual encounter. He'd never intended to marry the mother and had abandoned her after she became pregnant. His wife's subsequent nagging only intensified his resentment. Jordan was selfish, with numerous unacknowledged illegitimate children. He believed their mothers were to blame for their existence and felt no responsibility towards them. He felt women should abort unwanted pregnancies. This underlying resentment was the root of his hatred for Liam. Only his father's discovery of Liam's existence forced him to accept the boy. Even Liam's significant contributions wouldn't earn him the company; he didn't deserve it in Jordan's eyes.
Concealing his true feelings, Jordan respectfully requested, "Mr. Wade, please help Chairman Wilson!"
Kenneth, desperate for a cure, also looked at Charlie Wade with a bitter expression.
Charlie Wade examined Kenneth's pulse, feigning concern, and diagnosed blood stasis, exacerbated by medication, resulting in ulceration. He claimed conventional treatment was insufficient.
Kenneth eagerly asked for a treatment plan. Charlie Wade prescribed a complex herbal mixture.
Chapter 503
Charlie Wade then added a surprising element: the medicine required a "drug primer"—human urine. Kenneth was appalled at the suggestion of using urine, but Jordan confirmed the historical use of young boys' urine in traditional medicine. However, Charlie Wade then stated that due to Kenneth's condition, it had to be the urine of an adult male who had slept with many women, to balance the "ying" energy.
Kenneth questioned whether Charlie Wade was deliberately deceiving him. Charlie Wade vehemently denied this, offering a $100 million guarantee. Kenneth, desperate, considered his own urine, but Charlie Wade explained that wouldn't work.
The search for a suitable donor began.
Chapter 504
Everyone looked to Jordan, known for his past womanizing. Jordan boasted of having slept with hundreds of women. Charlie Wade selected Jordan as the source of the urine. Kenneth was disgusted but accepted it for the sake of his health. Charlie Wade instructed Jordan to collect one liter of urine. Kenneth protested the quantity, but Charlie Wade insisted on it for effectiveness. The herbal ingredients arrived, and Charlie Wade detailed a complex decoction process resulting in a liter of concentrated black liquid.
Chapter 505
Kenneth waited anxiously as Jordan retrieved the urine. The intense bitterness of the medicine filled the air. After a painful process, Jordan delivered the urine. Charlie Wade, pinching his nose to avoid the smell, instructed Kenneth to drink the urine first, followed by the medicine. Jeffrey felt nauseated. Kenneth, despite feeling sick, forced himself to drink the urine, followed by the potent herbal concoction. The onlookers were equally repulsed.
