The Vengeful Son-in-law

Tom's face darkened. It was okay for his mother-in-law to be so mean. Now even his father-in-law was becoming so snobbish and superficial

Phoebe bit her lip. She lowered her head and did not answer.

To be honest, her mind was in a mess and her heart was in a mess.

She didn't love Tom, but she had feelings for Tom. After all, she had been with Tom for four years, day and night. Besides, except for being useless, Tom was really good to her and took good care of her in life.

She didn't say it, but she still remembered it.

Especially at the last family dinner, Tom knew Malcolm and stood out for her in front of the Scotts. She was very grateful for it.

She couldn't divorce Tom like this, because she knew that it was cruel for Tom!

Besides, she didn't love Rory either. The person she was fond of and thought in her mind now was the tall and burly figure who wore a clown mask.

Chairman of ZQ Inc...

However, Rory's generous gift and passionate wooing did make her flustered and nervous.

Rory watched this and sat back in his chair, proud and happy like a peacock. It had been a long time since he had been so happy.

Just then, Tom said, "Dad, mom, you're going to sell Phoebe just for some bullshit porcelain?! Isn't that too hasty?"

Tom smiled helplessly and shook his head.

Rory was crossing his legs. Hearing this, his pupils suddenly contracted, and a trace of surprise and guilt flashed through his eyes!

What the hell, this loser Tom? How could he know that his blue and white porcelain only cost several ten thousand dollars? James and Elizabeth were also stunned for a moment. Then their faces changed and darkened. James slapped the table and scolded rudely, "Tom! What are you talking about? This is the blue and white porcelain of the Ming dynasty. It's worth more than ten million dollars. Didn't you hear what Rory said just now? Are you deaf?"

Elizabeth also scolded, "Tom! You loser, if you don't have the ability, forget it. You're even so petty. You deliberately defamed Rory. Why are you so disgusting? I order you to apologize to Rory immediately!”

Phoebe also frowned. She also thought that Tom said this deliberately because of jealousy, which was a little disgusting.

Rory regained his composure. He told himself in his mind that he had overreacted just now, and he even felt guilty just now. Was he really afraid that Tom, a loser, would make a change over something?

Rory gave up the crossing gesture, waved his hand, and said with a smile, "Uncle and aunt, don't be angry. There must be a reason for Tom to say something like that. It's not because of jealousy that he deliberately smeared me."

Tom did not care about his strange attitude, and stood up and said, "Dad, mom, you are both deceived by him. The quality of his blue and white porcelain is indeed very good, and the material, texture, and forging process are excellent. Unfortunately, it was made in five years. It's not some blue and white porcelain from the Ming dynasty. It's a high-end fake and is worth just 30,000 to 40,000 dollars. But if you say it's worth several ten million dollars, it would be a big joke."

Phoebe knew something about Tom and knew that although he was a little incompetent, he was not a liar. Maybe this porcelain was really fake?

She looked at Tom, and Tom smiled and nodded at her.

But when James and Elizabeth heard this, their faces didn't look good. They were so excited just now that they had already determined that this was the real one. If it was really like what Tom had said, a fake, wouldn't that several ten million dollars be gone?

It was unacceptable to them!

Besides, they didn't believe what Tom said either. They thought that Tom said it on purpose because of jealousy, and their impression of Tom became even worse.

Elizabeth stepped directly on one of Tom's feet and scolded, "Shut up you loser! Get out of here now! You're still naive and have already behaved so badly, with such terrible character. Even if you're not as good as Rory, you even have the nerve to slander him!"

Tom rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, this is really a fake. Why would 1 lie to you? If you don't believe me, just let the experts authenticate it."

When Rory heard this, he immediately panicked. The fake porcelain could fool ordinary people, but it could never fool experts!

Rory quickly stood up and said with a cold face, "Tom, you haven't been able to give Phoebe a happy life in the past few years. You've humiliated Phoebe, uncle, and aunt so many times. I didn't care about you. Now you're making me embarrassed? Well, if you say it's a fake, then tell me where you can tell that it's a fake!"

After a pause, he narrowed his eyes and said, "If you can't say it but slander me, then don't blame me for being rude to you!"

To be honest, Rory really hated and even envied Tom. How could a loser like Tom marry Phoebe? Even if Tom had never slept with Phoebe, and only spent time with Phoebe, he would not allow it! Phoebe then said, "Rory, forget it. Tom didn't mean it. Don't be serious about him."

Rory glared at Tom fiercely and said, "Okay, Phoebe, for your sake, I won't take this seriously.” Phoebe pinched Tom in his waist and glared, "Why are you still standing there? Why don’t you apologize to Rory?"

Tom curled his lips and said, "Why should I apologize to him? I didn't say anything wrong. He should be the one to apologize. He took several the counterfeit to lie to you, saying that it is worth more than ten million dollars. His intentions are not good."

"You!" Phoebe was so angry with Tom that she stomped her foot fiercely. She really wanted to bite Tom. What kind of person was Tom? He was so ungrateful!

James and Elizabeth started to scold Tom again, and Rory's face became colder, and he laughed back in anger, "Okay, you keep saying that my porcelain is a fake. Now tell me why it is!"

Then he said to James and Elizabeth, "Uncle, auntie, you don't have to scold him anymore. Just let him say it and see what he can say. The porcelain I gave is authentic, and I am not afraid of his slandering. The true piece cannot be replaced, and I'm not afraid of his defamation!"

His words came out with a straight aura, a clear conscience, and a sense of resentment. His acting skills were so good that it was hard to tell if he was guilty at all. His acting made people believe that he was angry after being misunderstood, which made Phoebe and her parents feel more disgusted and angrier with Tom. At the same time, they appreciated Rory more. Unconsciously, they stood on Rory's side and joined forces. They all looked at Tom coldly.

There was a very obvious hint that if Tom could not say it properly, he would not be spared.
