The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 1641-1645

Chapter 1641

Hannah followed the Wilson family to the restaurant, resentment simmering toward Mrs. Wilson. Lady Wilson seated herself at the head of the table and eyed Hannah's cooking with a frown. "Why are all the dishes home-cooked?" she complained. "I don't have any elaborate dishes. Do you need to replenish your body?"

Hannah responded with a hint of grievance, "Mom, you can't blame me. The family's money is yours. I only have a few hundred dollars. How can I afford expensive fish and meat?"

Lady Wilson coldly snorted. "I know you'll find an excuse. You could buy a chicken for a few hundred dollars, couldn't you? A local chicken costs only a hundred dollars."

Hannah's anger flared. "Mom, five people eat, and you don't pay me living expenses. I'm a clever woman, but I can't cook without rice! There's pork in this meal, but I might not even have meat for the next."

Lady Wilson glared. "Living expenses are fine, but you'll be reimbursed. In the future, buy groceries at a regular supermarket and bring me the receipt for reimbursement."

Hannah knew Lady Wilson was afraid of spending her own money. The thought of buying hundreds of dollars' worth of vegetables daily and reconciling expenses with Lady Wilson disgusted her, but she remained calm. "Okay, Mom. We'll settle accounts daily from now on."

Lady Wilson smiled sarcastically. "I don't find it troublesome. I'm very energetic."

Hannah ignored her, ate her meal. Wendy, beside her, scrolled through her phone while eating, then said to Mrs. Wilson, "Grandma, can I request an image allowance?"

Lady Wilson frowned. "What image allowance?"

Wendy explained, "Grandma, I'm the commercial director of Wilson Group. Commercial directors handle external affairs and represent the company's image. My clothing, cosmetics, and skincare need to align with our company's positioning."

Lady Wilson gave her a withering look. "Just tell me what you want."

Wendy requested $100,000 for a bag, new clothes, and cosmetics.

"One hundred thousand?!" Mrs. Wilson scoffed. "Do you think our family's money grows on trees?"

Wendy argued, "Grandma, Mr. Webb gave us tens of millions, and the company's funds are abundant. $100,000 is nothing!"

Lady Wilson retorted, "Nothing? That's precisely the problem! Thinking $100,000, $200,000, or even $1 million is insignificant is how we nearly destroyed Wilson Group! We must seize this opportunity for rebirth and avoid past mistakes!"

Wendy, slightly unhappy, muttered, "After all this hard work, I don't even have decent cosmetics. I look disheveled when I go out to conduct business. It reflects poorly on Wilson Group. My bags are worn-out. I'll be laughed at!"

Lady Wilson waved impatiently. "Fine, buy a fake Hermes bag. It'll do."

Chapter 1642

"A fake?" Wendy was anxious. "As commercial director, being caught with a fake Hermes is embarrassing!"

Lady Wilson sneered. "You don't understand! With high status, a fake bag is believable; with low status, even the truth seems fake. Wilson Group is reborn. As commercial director, you'll be perceived as affluent. Even a fake bag won't be questioned."

Wendy pleaded, "Grandma, even for your granddaughter, $100,000 isn't excessive."

Lady Wilson snorted. "Ten thousand dollars. Take it or leave it!"

Wendy, though disappointed, accepted the $10,000.

Lady Wilson declared solemnly, "We must restore Wilson Group's glory, even surpassing it! Everyone must work diligently, no hedonism allowed. Even my son or grandson will be out if they fail to comply. Do you understand?"

Christopher, Harold, and Wendy, though disheartened, nodded in unison, "We understand"

Mrs. Wilson, satisfied, waved them to eat. She had work at the company. They ate in silence.

Wendy saw Elaine Ma's WeChat Moments—pictures of Elaine with multiple Hermes bags. Anger surged. Elaine Ma had real Hermes bags while Wendy was told to buy fakes.

Chapter 1643

Wendy's anger intensified. Why couldn't she have what Elaine Ma had?

She exclaimed, "Grandma! Elaine Ma has real Hermes! Why can't I?"

Lady Wilson snatched the phone, furious. Christopher saw the photos and commented on Elaine Ma's apparently healed leg. Harold wanted revenge.

Jacob Wilson said, "Her leg is healed. We'll seize the opportunity to deal with her."

Christopher hated Elaine Ma for the numerous "green hats" (a symbol of infidelity) she displayed outside her home. He planned revenge, also wanting to upset Charlie Wade. He needed an opportunity.

Mrs. Wilson agreed, "That damn Elaine Ma needs to be taught a lesson! We should break her legs!"

Wendy and Harold readily agreed.

Lady Wilson instructed Christopher, "Christopher, Elaine Ma has insulted you and the Wilson family. Take action!"

Christopher vowed revenge.

Later, Charlie Wade went to the kennel.

Chapter 1644

Charlie Wade asked Don Albertt about Ichiro and Jiro Kobayashi's behavior. They were kept separate due to their mutual hatred.

Charlie Wade summoned both brothers. Upon seeing each other, they immediately fought until separated by Don Albertt’s men.

Charlie Wade met with them and they both knelt, begging to return to Japan with him, each offering a greater percentage of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical’s shares. Ichiro Kobayashi even accused Jiro of poisoning their father.

Charlie Wade, remembering his promise to Ichiro, chose him, leaving Jiro behind.

Chapter 1645

Ichiro Kobayashi worried about his reputation in Japan.

Charlie Wade suggested a video confession from Jiro confessing to poisoning their father and attempting to eliminate Ichiro.

Jiro Kobayashi protested, but reluctantly agreed.

Charlie Wade contacted Paul to accompany him to Japan to finalize the Kobayashi Pharmaceutical share transfer. He used Cameron Isaac’s private jet and enlisted his assistance. Cameron Isaac and some of his capable subordinates would also accompany them. Don Albertt also joined the trip.
