The Vengeful Son-in-law

In a daze, Tom took Kaylie to have supper.

He had decided to go home, but now he had no choice but to text Phoebe that he would be back later.

Phoebe did not ask him why, but simply replied, "Oh."

There was nothing to eat nearby, so they could only take a taxi. He took Kaylie to eat beef hotpot. Tom looked at Kaylie, who was devouring and did not even know that her hair had fallen down. Now, although Kaylie was wearing men's clothes, she was behaving naturally as a woman. She did not deliberately pretend to be a man but restore her feminine side.

Tom found that Kaylie was quite beautiful. She was on the same level as Phoebe, but she looked more like a pretty girl from a humble family.

This kind of Kaylie was very eye-catching. From time to time, people in the hotpot restaurant looked over and felt extremely envious and jealous of him, as he was Kaylie's only male companion.

"Eat slowly. No one will snatch your food." Seeing that she was devouring and burned her tongue several times, Tom gave her a glass of ice water and kindly persuaded her.

"Thank you.” Kaylie smiled sweetly at Tom. She drank the water, stuck out her tongue and said, “I haven't eaten for two days. I'm starving.”

"Why don't you eat? Your family abused you?" Tom asked strangely.

Kaylie snorted and said angrily, "Well, they really abused me! My father forces me to marry the man I don't like... Uh..."

At this point, she suddenly realized that she had said something wrong and immediately shut up. Then she saw Tom's calm expression and knew that she had been seen through, and her face turned red again, feeling very shy.

"You, you know I'm a girl?" Kaylie said carefully.

Tom was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise, "Ah? Bro, what are you talking about? I don't understand.”

He was still pretending!

Kaylie rolled her eyes. She had already seen herself in the mirror next to her. She was just like her usual appearance. Besides, she came out in a hurry and didn't wear a corset. How could Tom not notice that?

However, Tom was quite cute to pretend to be confused.

"Tom, I'm a girl. I lied to you. Will you be angry with me?" Kaylie stared at Tom and asked, her tone a little anxious.

Tom laughed inside. "Why should I be angry? It has nothing to do with me whether you are a boy or a girl." He thought.

But he didn't have to say it out loud. He smiled and said, "It's okay. There must be a reason for you to do this. Why should I be angry?”

Kaylie was moved. "Tom, you're so nice. You're much better than other men.”

"Well, maybe you haven't met many men yet." Tom noticed that Kaylie's eyes had changed. He quickly changed the subject and said, "Eat slowly. I'll take you home after you finish eating.” "Okay..." Kaylie nodded subconsciously. Soon, she came to her senses and quickly shook her head, "I'm not going home. I'm not going back!"

Tom snorted and didn't ask much. Instead, he said, "Yes, you should calm down first."

"Yes..." Kaylie put two pieces of beef into Tom's bowl and said with a fawning expression, "Tom, can I stay at your house for the time being?"

Tom was shocked by her words. Fortunately, he had just picked up the teacup and had not drunk the tea. Otherwise, he would have sprayed it on Kaylie. "Are you kidding me?!"

Kaylie shook her head and said, “I'm not joking! I'm serious!"

"That won't do.” Tom refused.

"Why not? Aren't we good friends?" Kaylie said.

Tom was speechless. “When did I become good friends with you? We only met twice in total, okay?" He thought.

"Because my house is full." Tom said.

Kaylie said, "Then I can sleep on the sofa.”

"I slept on the sofa,” Tom said.

"Ah? Why? Why don't you sleep on the bed?" Kaylie was puzzled.

Tom sighed and said helplessly, "Because my wife doesn't allow me..."

'Wait a minute. Why should I tell her this?" He thought.

He quickly changed his words and said, "Anyway, it's not convenient. Besides, you are such a beauty, how can you live in my house?"

When Kaylie heard the word "beauty," she ignored everything else and her eyes lit up a lot. "Wow, it turned out that he thought I am a beauty, so happy..." She thought.

She didn't even realize that she was like a fangirl.

"Then where do I live? I can't live on the street, can I?" Kaylie said with grievance and looked pitifully at Tom, but she was actually acting coquettishly.

Tom had goosebumps all over his body.

Although Kaylie told him she was a girl, Tom still treated her as a boy. So when he saw Kaylie being coquettish, he felt very weird.

"You are rich. You must have a lot of savings. Just find a place to live, or you can go to your friends.” Tom said.

Kaylie said dejectedly, "Don't mention it. I didn't bring out my cell phone, wallet, or anything. I'm penniless. If I hadn't met you, I would have been wandering. Besides, I don't have any real friends in H City. If I looked for them, they would have informed my parents. So the only man I can rely on is you."

As Kaylie spoke, she held her chin in both hands and looked at Tom with sparkling eyes. It was impossible to say no.

Tom was speechless for a moment and almost couldn't resist her request. After a while, he reminded her, "Miss Knight, we've only met twice. We're not very familiar yet.”

"But I treat you as my old friend! Last time, I treated you to dinner. We had a good talk.” Kaylie said. "Now I'll treat you to this beef hotpot, and that's fair.” Tom said.

Kaylie put down her chopsticks. Her eyes darkened a lot and she said softly, “Tom, do you hate me?” "Uh..." Tom shook his head and said, "No. Why should I hate you?"

"Then why are you so cold to me? Aren't we already friends? You're the only person I can count on in H City." Kaylie's voice was very sad.

Tom couldn't bear to see Kaylie like this. After thinking about it, he said, "Well, I'll lend you ten thousand dollars. You can find a house or stay in a hotel by yourself. When you have money, you give it back to me. Okay?"

Kaylie thought for a moment and said, "Ten thousand is not enough. Lend me one hundred thousand dollars. When I have money, I'll pay you back two hundred thousand dollars.”

As a person who had only met twice, she actually dared to borrow 100,000 dollars.

But a hundred thousand dollars was nothing to Tom. In order to get rid of this trouble, he had to agree.

After eating the hotpot, Tom went to the nearby ATM and withdrew 100,000 dollars of cash for her. Then, Kaylie turned around and bought a brand new Apple phone, which cost more than 10,000 dollars. Then she went into the clothing store and spent more than 30,000 dollars on clothes. In less than an hour, there was only 50,000 dollars left.

Tom could only sigh with emotion. So she was really a rich girl! She didn't care about prices at all. Tom wanted to leave, but Kaylie still refused to let him go. She asked him to accompany her to book a hotel, send her into the room, and then let him go. It was as if they were a couple.

Coming out of the hotel, Tom suddenly felt something. He looked back and scared the two people in the car across the road. "Does he find us?"

"I don't think so. We're professional detectives. With such good tracking skills, it's impossible for him to find us. He must do it unconsciously. Look, he's gone."
