The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 566-570

Chapter 566

Everyone erupted in laughter at the revelation! No one had predicted such an amazing twist.

Jake exclaimed, "Wow, Uncle Wilson, you're incredible! You're like the main character in a romance movie who dumped his college sweetheart and married his nemesis! Hahaha!"

Charlie Wade remained silent, but found the incident hilarious. He never imagined his in-laws had such a backstory. Elaine Ma was truly herself. Not only did she get Jacob Wilson drunk, but she also slept with him! It was a devious act.

After their laughter subsided, the men sympathized with Jacob Wilson, offering encouragement and comfort.

Aaron, still watching Jacob Wilson, chuckled, "Don't sympathize with him yet. Elaine Ma was miserable marrying him!"

The crowd was puzzled. "What's so miserable about marrying Jacob Wilson?"

Aaron sighed. "You don't know the whole story. Elaine Ma was aiming for rich kids, dreaming of a lavish life. She fell for Jacob Wilson because his family was wealthy then…"

He then mocked, "But who knew Jacob Wilson would become so useless after graduation? He received no family resources or attention, and their family deteriorated year after year. Elaine Ma's dream shattered! She married a deadbeat loser!"

Humiliated, Jacob Wilson's face reddened. He shouted, "Aaron Philips, stay out of my business!"

Aaron snorted, "Aurouss Hill knows your family's affairs! Do you think I'm the only one who knows?"

He continued loudly, "Your family was once influential, letting you get away with things using their name. But now, you're finished. You're a loser who can't earn money, Elaine Ma plays mahjong all day, and your son-in-law is a moocher. Your family depends solely on your daughter's income! I wonder what sins she committed in a past life to end up with such a useless family and loser husband. I pity her!"

Charlie Wade, agitated at the mention of Claire Wilson, frowned. He wouldn't tolerate comments about his wife. He said, "Uncle Philips, mind your own business. Stop meddling."

Aaron scoffed, "Concerned about your family? Am I wrong?"

He stood, boasting arrogantly, "Jacob Wilson's daughter is in a dysfunctional family. Look at me—senior management at a petrochemical company. I earn twenty thousand a month and will get a twenty-thousand-dollar pension and 100% medical reimbursement at 65! My wife, also a deputy manager, earns fifteen thousand a month. Our combined pension will be forty thousand! Jacob and Elaine are in their fifties without jobs and will have no pension. They'll become a social burden!"

He then pulled his son-in-law forward. "My son-in-law is CEO of Aurous Continental Technology, soon to be listed on the GEM! His company's revenue will reach one to two billion a year. He's a top pioneer in Aurouss Hill! This is a comfortable life!"

Flattering and envious voices surrounded them, praising Aaron and Jake. Their careers and finances were enviable. Aaron reveled in the admiration, thinking, "I've waited for this moment! It's perfect!" He missed the playful smirk on Charlie Wade's lips.

Charlie Wade said, "So, you and your wife work at the petrochemical company, and your son-in-law is CEO of Aurous Continental Technology? Good. I was worried about how to deal with you, but thank you for revealing all this information."

Chapter 567

Using Aaron's information, Charlie Wade messaged Isaac to investigate Aaron and his wife, their track record at the petrochemical company, and Aurous Continental Technology.

While Isaac worked, Aaron enjoyed the flattery. His friends, mostly government or state-owned enterprise employees, earned a few thousand dollars a month. Aaron's position was enviable.

His petrochemical company job was lucrative, surpassing everyone present. His son-in-law's soon-to-be-public company could be worth billions. Jake, still young, would likely become super-rich.

Jacob Wilson felt defeated. Aaron had been his rival for Matilda, who completely ignored Aaron. Jacob and Matilda fell in love at first sight; Aaron's claims of Matilda seeing him as a backup were false. They were deeply in love, even planning to marry. Matilda had even lost her virginity to him.

Elaine Ma, however, got Jacob drunk, slept with him, and told Matilda. Matilda, heartbroken, left the country. Elaine was the cause of everything. Without her, he would have married Matilda, studied abroad, and started their life together. Overwhelmed by bitterness, he felt like crying.

Charlie Wade received Isaac's reply. Aaron Philips, deputy chief of sales at the petrochemical company, had a lucrative salary but took significant bribes and kickbacks. He'd embezzled millions, transferring assets to offshore accounts, his daughter's name, and Jake's company.

Jake Dunn had failed in business and, seeing Aaron's position, pursued and impregnated his daughter. Aaron funded Jake's company with $30 million. Aurous Continental Technology was a money-laundering operation for Aurouss Hill's illegal casinos. Their crowdfunding app, disguised as helping sick patients, funneled millions from underworld accounts. Their biggest client was Don Albertt Rhodes, who laundered money through the app.

A gratified smile spread across Charlie Wade's face. "Aaron Philips, Jake Dunn, enjoy this for a few minutes. Then, endless darkness awaits!"

Chapter 568

Someone shouted, "Mr. Lee is here! Help carry him upstairs."

Jacob Wilson sighed in relief, urging Charlie Wade to help. Aaron told Jake to help as well.

Jake walked ahead, ignoring Charlie Wade. Charlie Wade didn't care; Jake and his company wouldn't last.

Downstairs, they saw an eighty-something-year-old man in a wheelchair, looking at the old school building. His middle-aged son explained that his father wanted to revisit the school.

The old man, Mr. Lee, joked about his son's protectiveness. His son laughed, mentioning his father's long teaching career. Mr. Lee stated that teaching was a lifelong mission. Charlie Wade respected their dedication.

Jake showed disdain but said, "Let's go." He then urged Charlie Wade to help carry Mr. Lee. Charlie Wade replied, "I'd rather do it myself than with someone clumsy. I don't want Mr. Lee to fall."

Jake glared in disbelief. Charlie Wade easily lifted the wheelchair and carried Mr. Lee upstairs. His strength, enhanced by Rejuvenating Pills, made the task effortless.

Astonished, Jake followed, suggesting Charlie Wade work at a construction site. Charlie Wade retorted, "Oh, do you want to carry bricks and concrete?"

Jake growled, "I meant you!"

Charlie Wade chuckled. "Good to know you've made arrangements for yourself. I'll arrange for you to work at a construction site for 20 years."

Chapter 569

Jake hissed, "Do you think this is funny? It's an honor to work at a construction site!"

Charlie Wade nodded. "Alright, I know. I'll arrange it for you."

Jake chided, "Crazy! You're young; find something serious to do. You might still be successful."

Charlie Wade said, "Working in construction isn't obscure. Arnold Schwarzenegger laid bricks! Use TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, and Facebook to post your work, maybe you'll become famous! I have a Snapchat account; want to follow me?"

Jake sneered, "A househusband with a Snapchat account? Aurouss Hill's biggest loser?"

Charlie Wade chuckled, "A househusband? I'm an amazing son-in-law!"

Jake scoffed, "Amazing? If you're amazing, I'm Godlike! You're a muddy son-in-law."

Charlie Wade laughed. "The son-in-law who carries bricks!"

Jake cursed, "How dare you!"

Charlie Wade ignored him, carrying Mr. Lee to the classroom. Mr. Lee praised Charlie Wade's ability to handle humiliation with humor.

Jake muttered about the old man. Charlie Wade ignored him.

Mr. Lee's arrival caused a cheer. Their teacher-student relationship was like father and son. Mr. Lee, emotional, gave a lecture.

Chapter 570

Eyes turned red; some cried. Mr. Lee, smiling, said, "Be contented with a simple and virtuous life, delight in wisdom. I'm still poor, but I've lived happily with no regrets!"

Loud applause followed. Jacob Wilson felt inspired. He had his sources of pain (Elaine Ma), but found happiness in antiques.

Mr. Lee lectured, then, exhausted, was helped down. Everyone was grateful.

Aaron suggested a celebration at a club. Jake recommended the Glorious Club, a luxurious venue he was a member of.

The crowd gasped. Membership was prestigious, signifying top social status. Jake was exceptionally well-connected to be a member at his age. They all wanted to go.

Jake enjoyed the attention. He hadn't earned his membership; Don Albertt had given it to him in exchange for money laundering. Albert saw Jake as a tool, a "dog" to be rewarded occasionally to keep him working.
