The Rich and Furious Son-in-law

“Your aunt is right. There is nothing wrong to sacrifice for the company. It is an open society, and you all are young people.”

“There is no point in sticking to your husband; he is such a loser. He doesn’t deserve you. Mr. Moore and you are a perfect match.”

…

Everyone was trying to persuade Lumi and ignored Ryan.

They were determined to make Ryan a cuckold.

Ryan stood beside Lumi. He said nothing until everyone finished talking. “Have you all finished talking? If so, I have a suggestion. Aunt, why don’t you sleep with Allan for a night for the sake of the family? You are not going to lose anything, anyway.”

Answer a fool according to her folly.

Lilian’s expression changed. “What the hell are you talking about, Ryan?”

This Ryan was not a person to be trifled with; he had even got Raymond. So Lilian did not want to be presumptuous. She shot a glare at him and left Lumi quietly.

Ryan turned to Lumi’s uncle Jerome Meyer. “Since Lumi’s aunt is not going, why don’t you let your wife do the honor? Allan would be happy if she does.” He glanced at Jerome’s wife as he spoke.

Jerome’s wife was in her 30s, 40 at the most, fashionable in a miniskirt and black stockings.

“D*mn you!” Jerome snorted and left.

After Lumi’s second uncle and aunt left, Lumi could finally enjoy a peaceful moment.

Ryan took a step forward, casting a frosty look at everyone else. “I thought you said it was an honor to sacrifice for the company, even casting couch is acceptable? Now that it is your turn, and you all tell me you can’t? I tell you what, I will let no one bullying my wife go unpunished.”

Although Ryan did not speak loud, his personal aura had stunned everyone present.

‘This Ryan was a madman.’

Knowing that it was now a losing battle, Grandma, sitting on the main seat, winked at Allan. “Allan is not trying to offend anyone. Since Lumi doesn’t feel like wanting it, everyone should respect her decision. If she really can’t think of a way, she will ask Allan for help later. Now that everyone is here, please be seated and the banquet shall begin.”

Everything that Grandma said was so well-worded.

But by the sound of her, she was still biased towards Raymond and Allan. She couldn’t care less about Ryan and Lumi.

Neither would Ryan; what the Mears family thought did not bother him.

For all the years he spent in the Mears family, there were only two people whom he was grateful for. One was Lumi’s grandpa, who had passed away. It was Lumi’s grandpa who adopted him. The other person was his wife, Lumi.

Apart from the fact that Lumi was his wife, there was actually a more important reason he had been willing to be seen as a doormat and listen to Lumi.

Back then, when Lumi was four, Ryan had gone through a life-and-death experience. He had undergone a blood transfusion with Lumi. Perhaps Lumi and her grandpa had forgotten, but that blood transfusion had saved his life.

Allan was upset that Ryan had once again ruined his plan. He looked at Grandma and forced a smile. “Don’t worry about it, Grandma. I’m here for your birthday and have brought you some gifts.” He then shouted at the door. “Bring the things in.”

The bodyguards outside the door quickly carried several large boxes in.

As the boxes were opened, they revealed a coral, over one meter high, and emerald bracelets, each of which was worth several million dollars at least.

“Grandma, this is the least I can do. Hope you don’t mind. If I and Lumi can be together in the future, I promise I will honor you even more.” He was straightforward about it that this was a deal.

Moore Corporation had tens of billions of dollars of assets. Giving out gifts of tens of millions of dollars was nothing to Allan. But Lumi was too important to him. He was determined to get her by hook or by crook.

Others might not know the secret of Lumi’s bloodline, but not Allan. That secret was not something that a few hundred million dollars could buy.

Those things that Allan brought in began to pile up on the table. Grandma broke out in a smile when she saw so many emeralds and corals. “You shouldn’t have, Allan. These things are expensive. But thank you anyway.”

Grandma liked Allan more and more. How she wished he could be her grandson-in-law right now.

Lumi’s chest was heaving in anger as she sat next to Ryan. “This is too much. She did not even bat an eyelid when you gave her a pair of thirty-million-dollar earrings just now.”

Ryan patted the back of Lumi’s hand. “It is okay. We just do what we should do. Let’s eat. We will go out for a stroll after this.”

But just as Ryan was about to start eating, Allan accosted him again.

“Hmph! I thought you were ballin’, Ryan? Have you ever seen a one-meter-tall coral? Can you afford it? I’m curious about what you gave to Grandma. I dare you to take it out and show us.” Allan sneered.

Everyone was silent because Ryan had just given Grandma a pair of thirty-million-dollar star ruby earrings. It was Robert Franklin who appraised the earrings.

Ryan was not sure if the gifts from Allan were worth more than thirty million dollars. But they were definitely much, much larger than what he gave.

Ryan put down his cutlery with a frown. Just when he was about to refute Allan, his cell rang. He picked up the cell. “Mr. Fletcher, it is me, Preston Parker. Well, today is the birthday of your grandma-in-law. I am not sure if the gift is enough, so I have prepared some more. My men are outside the villa of the Mearses now. Should they be allowed in?”

It was very nice of Preston Parker.

Ryan glanced at Allan and hesitated for a moment. “Let them in then.”

As much as Ryan wanted to keep a low profile, sometimes situations might warrant him to show his strength.

All lay loads on a willing horse.

Allan was getting smugger when he got no response from Ryan. “What I said must have cut you to quick, doesn’t it? A wimpy trash from the garbage dump like you really think you are something? I tell you what—Lumi will be my woman, eventually. Quickly get a divorce if you don’t want to get hurt.”

While he was still babbling, Ryan had grabbed a chair next to him and walked forward. “Shut up! What is so great about a few gifts? I didn’t even bat an eyelid when I gave Grandma a pair of thirty-million-dollar ruby earrings. Your gifts are all trash in my eyes.”

He walked up to the pile of gifts given by Allan, raised the chair, and smashed it down on the corals and emeralds.
