The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 1171-1175
Chapter 1171
Hannah was mortified by Christopher's insults but remained silent, fearing his wrath. She still longed for a happy family and hoped he would accept her. Christopher, however, despised her, though not abalone. While enjoying his abalone dinner, he coldly declared, "A woman as disobedient as you will be a servant in this house!" Hannah silently ate her noodles. Unbeknownst to her, Christopher already had a venereal disease. Had she known, she wouldn't have prepared the lavish abalone banquet to appease him. He devoured a dozen abalones and a bottle of wine, fueled by anger. The previous homeowner had left a substantial wine cellar, containing red wine, white wine, and champagne, which the Webbs had inherited. Christopher later retrieved a bottle of Moutai and shared it with Harold, consuming over a catty between them.
After eating and drinking, Christopher went to his bedroom for a nap, but soon an intense itching began. He frantically scratched, breaking the skin, but the itching persisted. Overwhelmed, he rushed to see Mrs. Wilson. Impatiently, he demanded money for a hospital visit. Mrs. Wilson, wary of expenses, questioned his need. Christopher, pained, vaguely explained his discomfort. Mrs. Wilson, suspecting a sexually transmitted infection, bluntly asked if he had been intimate with Hannah. He hesitantly confirmed their encounter at the Webb house.
Chapter 1172
Christopher's admission confirmed Mrs. Wilson's fears. She fretted that Hannah, having been in a coal mine, might carry various diseases. She insisted on accompanying him to the hospital. Christopher, though annoyed at the likely source of his infection, prioritized getting medical attention. He initially tried to go alone, but his mother's insistence prevailed, and they left for the hospital.
Meanwhile, a lone Webb family retainer infiltrated the local hospital morgue. Bribing the gatekeeper, he gained access to the bodies of the eight men killed in the Golim Mountain avalanche. He confirmed their identities and photographed the corpses before sending them to Donald. Back in Southaven, the Webb family clung to a sliver of hope, which shattered upon seeing the photos. The Eight Heavenly Kings were dead, killed in an avalanche—a blow that devastated Elder Webb and left the Webb family reeling. Sean, however, noticed inconsistencies in the injuries, suggesting foul play. The injuries didn't seem consistent with an avalanche.
Chapter 1173
The Webb family refused to believe the Eight Heavenly Kings had been murdered, struggling to identify their powerful enemy. They suspected neither Charlie Wade nor his associates possessed such strength, suggesting the possibility that the Heavenly Kings had provoked a secluded Golim Mountain master. Elder Webb found this plausible. The loss of the Eight Heavenly Kings, a pillar of the Webb family's power, threatened to destabilize their position. The news of their demise spread quickly, other powerful families watching the Webb family's misfortune with relish. The Webb family’s success was built on two things: Elder Webb's shrewd business acumen and the Eight Heavenly Kings' might. Their deaths left the Webb family vulnerable, attracting opportunistic rivals.
Chapter 1174
Christopher and Mrs. Wilson arrived at Aurouss Hill People's Hospital's andrology department. Christopher felt acutely embarrassed seeking treatment for this issue with his mother. His mother, however, insisted on accompanying him. He tried to go in alone, but she refused. He finally agreed to show her the results. The doctor quickly diagnosed a serious condition, questioning Christopher about visiting a brothel. Christopher denied this, the doctor interpreting his denial as typical. The doctor provided advice about safer sex practices and the risks associated with less reputable establishments. Christopher was mortified that the doctor equated Hannah to a prostitute. The doctor stressed the high cost of treatment versus the cost of choosing a safer option. The doctor then diagnosed gonorrhea, syphilis, and serious inflammation, also raising concerns about the possibility of AIDS.
Chapter 1175
Christopher, bearing the test request forms, revealed the diagnoses: gonorrhea, syphilis, urethritis, ulceration, and suppuration. Thankfully, there was no AIDS. Mrs. Wilson, terrified of contracting AIDS, recoiled from Christopher. Her self-preservation instincts outweighed her maternal concern. She gave him money before departing, leaving Christopher to endure the process alone. He was relieved about not having AIDS, but concerned about the treatments ahead and contemplating revenge on Hannah. His hospital visit confirmed the doctor's initial assessment. A 14-day treatment plan was established.
