The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 521

When the news about the Weaver family hit the streets, Charlie Wade, who had kicked Jordan and

Jeffrey into living hell and helped Liam to rise up, was in the kitchen cooking lunch for his wife and

in-laws.

At the dining table, Jacob Wilson and Elaine Ma were actively talking about the Weaver family. They

loved to talk about such gossip, especially Elaine Ma. She would be thrilled for the next three days if

she knew about the misfortune that happened in another family.

When Elaine Ma mocked Jordan and Jeffrey for their misfortune, Claire Wilson Wilson chided,

“Mom, don't mock others like that, it's not nice.”

Elaine Ma snorted in disdain. “Huh, I can ignore other people, but I won't miss a chance of mocking

the Weaver family!”

Then, she said in a sheepish tone, “Oh yes, did you know that Wendy was seemingly with Jeffrey a

few days ago?”

"Huh?" Claire Wilson Wilson gaped in bewilderment. “No way. Jeffrey is thirty-something, isn't he?

He is at least a decade older than Wendy! I don't think Wendy wants to be with him.”

Elaine Ma clicked her tongue amusingly. “Haha, do you really think Wendy is a saint? Tell you

something, I heard that she had been Kenneth's lover for some time! You know Kenneth, right?

Kenneth Wilson, the chairman of Modestway Group in Eastcliff. Then, it was Kenneth who passed

her to Jeffrey!”

This time, it was Jacob Wilson who was in utter shock. “What? Did you say Kenneth from Eastcliff?

Wendy was his lover? No way! Kenneth is older than Chris!”

Elaine Ma said, “Your mom wanted to curry favor with Kenneth so that she could get investment

from him to save the company, so she instructed Wendy to sleep with Kenneth. I must say, the guy

kept his promise, he invested 10 million into the company. Everyone knows about it, it's the truth.”

"Oh my goodness..." Claire Wilson Wilson gasped, “How could Grandma do that?! How could she

ask Wendy to be with Kenneth just for money? How could my uncle and aunt agree to such an

arrangement?”

“Them?” Elaine Ma snorted contemptuously, “I bet they were looking forward to it!”

Then, she said in a mocking tone, “Well, the old lady had quite wishful thinking, but too bad

Kenneth only invested ten million and that's it.”

Claire Wilson Wilson said, “Wilson Group's debts amount to about thirty million, the ten million is

just a drop in the bucket. I guess Grandma and the rest must be having a difficult time now.”

“She deserves it!” Elaine Ma growled, “Your grandma deserves every last bit of it! Don't you see how

she has bullied us for so many years? I wish that they'd go bankrupt soon and I hope to watch the

old coot sleeping on the street! Only then would she realize how many mistakes she’s made!

Honestly, I feel relieved and at ease when I think of it!”

Jacob Wilson started awkwardly, “Enough. Mom might be wrong at some point, but you can't curse

her like that! If they really go bankrupt and they are kicked out of the house, do you think we can

turn our backs on her when she comes to us?”

Elaine Ma blurted furiously, “Are you kidding me? I don't care, of course! So what if she has to sleep

on the street? I won't even care if she starves to death! Did you forget what she said and how she

looked at us when she kicked us out of her family? I will never forgive her!”

Jacob Wilson sighed and said nothing more.

He was indeed angry with his mother, but he wasn't as angry as Elaine Ma was.

Elaine Ma smiled triumphantly and said, “Huh, I can't wait to see the end of the Wilson family. When

they are done for, we'll be moving into the big Thompson First villa, and it would be like heaven and

hell! Until then, I'll let them know that fortune knocks once at every man’s door!”

She turned to Charlie Wade and urged, “Charlie Wade, have you been in contact with Mr. Zeke

White? Ask him to urge the contractor to speed up their renovation progress. I want to move in next

month!”

The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 522

Charlie Wade nodded and said, “Yes, Mr. White informed me that the work will be completed next

month and we can move in then.”

Claire Wilson Wilson said, “Would it be good to move in right after the renovation is completed?

Shouldn't we wait for a while for the smell of the paint and whatever to disappear first?”

Elaine Ma interjected, “Ah, it's okay. I went to see the progress with your dad the other day. They

used imported non-polluting materials for the renovation containing zero formaldehyde. There was

really no smell at all in the house. In fact, they installed an air purifying system in the house that

replaces fresh air twenty-four hours a day, it is very advanced and healthy!"

Claire Wilson Wilson nodded without a word. She was rather indifferent and aloof about the whole

idea of moving to the Thompson First villa, but Charlie Wade was right.

They would not live on the same floor as her parents after moving into the new house. In this case,

they would have more privacy and personal space, unlike now, where there was no such thing as

privacy even in their own room.

Moreover, she promised Loreen that she would reserve a room for her in the villa and invite her to

live in. After all, it wasn't so nice for a girl to stay alone at a hotel.

Charlie Wade couldn't be bothered by the villa. He lived a great and lavish life before he was eight,

and spent the rest of his childhood and adolescence in the orphanage. He was already at the stage

where he was not pleased by external gains and not saddened by personal losses.

At this moment, Elaine Ma received a text message that made her smile when she glanced at it.

She lifted her delightful gaze and said, “An old friend of mine is asking me to play eight rounds of

mahjong at her place this afternoon. I won't be home for dinner.”

Jacob Wilson asked in surprise, “Eight rounds? Won't it take about ten hours then?”

Elaine Ma rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, “So what if it's ten hours? I even played for two

days straight when I was young!”

Jacob Wilson tried a persuasive voice instead. “You said it yourself, when you were young, but you're

not young anymore! Sitting for long hours makes one prone to many illnesses—lumbar disc

herniation, cervical problems, high blood pressure, all of which are caused by sitting for too long.”

Elaine Ma waved her hand agitatedly, “Ah, shut it! I'm feeling fine, don't curse me!”

Claire Wilson Wilson frowned and said in a concerned tone, “Mom, I don't mind if you play mahjong

for leisure, but please, there are two things I want to say, so listen. One, don't play for too long and

two, please don't play by the rules that will make you win or lose thousands of thousands per

round, okay?"

“Argh, you're no fun! We're just playing to pass our time!” Elaine Ma said nonchalantly, “Besides, I'm

doing this for our family! Look at your dad who's a loser. Look at Charlie Wade, who isn't only a

loser, but also a liar who goes around deceiving people—I bet he will cause trouble to our family!

And you, you are still in the beginning of your business and have not earned any money yet. How

else can your dad and I retire leisurely? I'm depending on mahjong to earn some side income for

the family!”

Charlie Wade was agitated by his mother-in-law's harsh remarks. She still mocked him once in a

while and even felt that he was a big liar. In his mind, he imagined such a scene—he would slap her

across the face and said, “Since you think I'm a big liar, then don’t move into the villa that I've

gotten from deceiving people!”

His mother-in-law needed to learn some lessons for herself!

The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 523

Since people were waiting for her, Elaine Ma did not even bother to finish her meal. She quickly

grabbed her bag before she took a cab to an older villa complex in Aurouss Hilll, the West Garden

Villa.

An old friend of hers lived in the vicinity of this villa complex.

The West Garden Villa had been relatively prosperous and luxurious in Aurouss Hilll twenty years

ago. However, since it was already an old villa complex, it was not as luxurious and elegant as it

used to be.

In the past, Elaine Ma felt that the West Garden Villa was already very good and luxurious.

Moreover, she felt that she would never be able to move into a villa like this in her lifetime.

Nevertheless, things were different now. When she thought of how she was going to move into the

best villa at Thompson First very soon, Elaine Ma felt a little dismissive of the West Garden Villa

Her old friend who lived at this villa complex was called Summer Gibson, and Elaine Ma had met her

many years ago.

Summer came from a pretty good family background. Her husband made a lot of money in his early

years, and after he passed away in an accident, he left Summer with a lot of money,

After raising and sending her child abroad for further education, she would simply play mahjong for

fun to pass time every day.

Summer was very rich but she had very lousy hands and poor mahjong skills. Therefore, she would

always lose points to Elaine Ma whenever they played mahjong together. Elaine Ma would always

have more points and a better hand than her.

Therefore, Elaine Ma regarded Summer as her God of Wealth and would definitely be there

whenever Summer invited her over to play mahjong.

As soon as she rang Summer's doorbell, the door was opened almost immediately. At this time, a

woman who was about the same age as Elaine Ma quickly greeted her with a warm smile on her

face. “Sister Elaine Ma, you're here! Come on in!"

This middle-aged woman was none other than Summer.

Elaine Ma hurriedly greeted her before stepping through the door and saying with a smile, “Oh,

Summer! I am sorry to keep you waiting for a long time.”

After that, both of them headed to the living room. At this time, the other two friends who had

gathered to play mahjong with the both of them were already sitting and waiting for Elaine Ma at

the mahjong table.

“Sister Elaine Ma, you are finally here!”

Another middle-aged woman said impatiently when she saw Elaine Ma walking into the living room

"Come and sit down! We will start by playing eight continuous laps today!”

As soon as Elaine Ma and Summer sat down at the mahjong table, the mahjong game officially

began.

As Elaine Ma rubbed the mahjong tiles in her hand, she turned around and said, “Summer, you have

already lived in this villa for quite a long time, right?”

After touching a tile, Summer smiled before she replied, “Yes, this villa was bought for more than

ten years ago, mainly for investment purposes. After my child went abroad, I was living alone in the

city, but the villa was too big for me. I could not help but feel very anxious living alone in such a

huge villa.”

“Then, have you thought about renovating and refurbishing your villa?” Elaine Ma asked with an

interested expression on her face. “Let me tell you, my daughter happens to own a renovation and

refurbishment company, and she is also partnering with the Emgrand Group!

If you are interested in renovating or refurbishing your villa, I can ask my daughter to give you a

special price. When that time comes, she will surely turn your villa into a magnificent palace!”

"Sister Elaine Ma, thank you for your kindness,” Summer replied as she smiled slightly. After that,

she sighed before she said, "However, I am already planning to sell this villa.”

"Sell it?” Elaine Ma was very puzzled. “Why do you want to sell your villa? You are not short of

money. I know that your husband left you seven or eight different houses, and you have also

invested in several real estates yourself. Isn't it good for you to keep this villa for investment

purposes?”

The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 524

Summer shook her head before she smiled and said, “Actually, I am going to the United States after

a while. I am going to settle down there, and I am not going to come back to Aurouss Hilll

anymore.”

At this time, Elaine Ma asked in surprise, “How are you planning to settle down in the United

States?”

Summer nodded slightly before she said, “Didn't I tell you that my son went abroad to study in the

United States? He has not returned to the country after leaving for the United States. He is already

married there, and my daughter-in-law is also pregnant now.

My son does not intend to come back to Aurouss Hilll anymore. Therefore, he wants to bring me

over to live with him in the United States so that I can help him to look after his children in the

future.”

One of the women sitting at the mahjong table suddenly blurted out, “Oh, Summer! Are you going

to sell all of your houses and properties in Aurouss Hilll then?”

Summer replied, “I will just keep one of the smaller condominiums in the urban area. If there is an

opportunity in the future, my family can come back to Aurouss Hilll for a short vacation for a few

days.”

Elaine Ma could not help but feel a little sorry and disappointed when she heard Summer's words.

She was not sorry that she was going to lose a good friend whom she could chat with and play

mahjong with. Instead, Elaine Ma was upset because she felt that she would never be able to find

another person like Summer who was rich and bad at playing mahjong, but would never get upset

and was always willing to lose money to her!

At this time, outside the West Garden Villa, Christopher and Hannah had just parked their car at the

entrance of the villa and were waiting for their real estate agent to arrive.

Christopher intended to find a suitable house that would cost them less than ten million dollars.

Therefore, he had contacted a real estate company and had asked for a real estate agent to help

him find a villa that cost about ten million dollars.

The average price of the houses in Aurouss Hilll was a little more than thirty thousand dollars, but a

villa was naturally more expensive. It would be basically impossible for anyone to buy a brand new

villa for ten million dollars. Therefore, they could only afford to come and look at this old villa.

Hannah was very dissatisfied as she stared at the entrance of the West Garden Villa. “Christopher,

don't you think that this villa complex is a little too old? Just look at the villas here! It looks even

older than the old lady's villa. Why don't we look at some other villas in another area instead?”

Christopher quickly replied, “There is no way we will be able to afford another villa elsewhere.

Moreover, the first-grade houses at Thompson First are actually pretty good, but you refuse to buy

a house there.”

Hannah became very annoyed as she replied, “That piece of trash Charlie Wade owns a villa at

Thompson First! I do not want to risk running into Jacob Wilson and Elaine Ma there in the future! I

am not going to buy an ordinary residential house or condominium apartment at Thompson First!”

Christopher replied, “Therefore, it would be more cost-effective for us to buy this kind of old villa. It

has a very large and spacious area, and it will be very comfortable for our entire family to move in. It

does not matter if the villa is a little older because we can always renovate it again.”

After that, Christopher continued speaking, “You have to consider the situation that we're in,

Hannah. Both Harold and Wendy are both single. Each of them will already occupy one bedroom

each. Both of us will take one bedroom, and that will already be three bedrooms.

If Harold gets married in the future, he will definitely continue living with us. When he has a child,

we have to make sure that the child has a room too. That is already four bedrooms!”

Christopher continued explaining, “And wouldn't mom come to live with us in the future too? At

that time, we will have to make sure that she has a bedroom to herself too. We would need five

bedrooms in total! Thus, it would be most practical for us to buy a villa.”

Hannah asked angrily, “Why must your mother come and live with us? Why doesn’t she go and live

with Jacob Wilson instead?”

Christopher shrugged as he said, “Since the old lady has already severed all ties with Jacob Wilson's

family, do you think that Jacob Wilson will allow her to live with them?”

Hannah was very dissatisfied and she continued her argument, “No matter what, the old lady cannot

come and live with us! I will not allow it! Anyway, the Wilson family is already done for, and we will

not reap any further benefits from the old lady any longer.

We should just send her to Jacob Wilson's house. It is none of our business if he allows her to live

with him or not! We do not need to care about that old lady anymore!”

Christopher quickly replied, “Hannah, you might not know about this, but my mother bought a life

insurance policy about twenty years ago. It is a financial insurance policy.

The insurance payout after her death is at least six million dollars! If you drive the old lady out of

our house and ask her to live with Jacob Wilson instead, the six million dollars will belong to Jacob

Wilson after she dies!”

“More than six million dollars?” Hannah's eyes lit up immediately as she asked in surprise, “She

bought so much insurance?”

The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 525

"Yes." Christopher quickly explained, “This is the life insurance that my dad bought for her when he

was still alive in order to leave a way out for the future generations.”

After that, Christopher also said, “Why don't you analyze and do the calculations yourself? How

many more years could my mother possibly live when she is already so old?

I think that she can only live for another three to five years at most. Let's just let her live with us for

another three to five years. After her death, we will be able to get our hands on the six million

dollars life insurance. Don't you think that it is very worth it?”

“Yes, it is worth it!” Hannah replied as she rubbed her hands excitedly. After that, she said, “We have

to take good care of your mother now. We should not allow Jacob Wilson and his family to lay their

hands on your mother's life insurance!”

Christopher nodded as he smiled, “That is only natural. Don't worry, we will not split the six million

dollars with Jacob Wilson and his family when the time comes!”

Hannah hurriedly replied, “Not only will he not get a single penny from the six million dollars, but

we also have to make sure that Jacob Wilson pays half the amount of money for your mother's

funeral and burial plot when she dies!”

At this time, Christopher subconsciously replied, “The old lady has already severed all ties with him,

Do you think that he will willingly pay the money for her funeral and burial?”

“Are you stupid?” Hannah could not help but burst out immediately. “The old lady might have

already broken off all relations with him verbally, but it does not have any legal effect at all!

When the old lady dies, we can go to court and sue Jacob Wilson if he refuses to pay half of the

amount that we will have to spend on the old lady's funeral and burial. After all, before the law,

Jacob Wilson is still legally the son of that old lady, and he has the obligation and responsibility to

pay for her funeral and burial too!”

Christopher beamed as he broke out into laughter. “Wife! You are right. At that time, we certainly

have to ask Jacob Wilson to come out with half of the money for the expenses incurred. You are still

the smarter one between the both of us, darling! Hahaha!"

Hannah was very proud of herself and grinned as she said, “The two fools, Jacob Wilson and Elaine

Ma, are always trying to play with us, but how could they possibly be our opponents?”

As soon as her voice fell, a young real estate agent who was dressed in a small suit came over

before asking politely, “Hello, are you Mr. and Mrs. Wilson?”

"Yes, yes, yes!” Christopher replied as he nodded hurriedly. “You must be the real estate agent from

the Lynnox Real Estate Company, right?”

“That's right,” the young girl replied with a smile on her face. “Sir, madam, I have already made an

appointment with the owner of the villa, she is already waiting for us. We can go in and take a look

around the villa now.”

"Okay." Christopher nodded before he replied, “Let's go over and take a look, then.”

As she led them toward the villa, the young girl took the opportunity to explain the situation. “I will

tell you a little about the villa. The owner of the villa is a middle-aged lady.

She wants to get rid of all her properties as soon as possible because she will be migrating to the

United States soon. That is the reason why she is selling her villa at a slightly cheaper price as

compared to the market price. This is definitely a very good deal!”

Christopher and Hannah could not help but smile to themselves when they heard the young girl's

words.

It was simply perfect if it was cheaper!

If this villa was suitable, they could use the money that they saved from the purchase of the villa to

renovate and refurbish the villa instead!

Meanwhile, Elaine Ma was still playing with Summer and her friends. As they were in the midst of

the mahjong game, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Summer looked at her friends apologetically before she said, “I'm sorry but please excuse me for a

short while. I think the real estate agent is here with my potential buyer. I am going to go and open

the door to invite them in now.”

Then, Summer stood up before she walked toward the entrance and opened the front door.

When Summer saw the real estate agent standing at the front door with a middle-aged couple, she

knew that these were the potential buyers who had come here to take a look at her villa today. She

smiled pleasantly at them before she said, “Hello, please come in...”

At this time, the real estate agent quickly spoke up, “Miss Gibson, let me introduce you to the

potential buyers. This is Mr. Wilson and his wife, Miss Queen. This is the couple that I told you about

over the phone, and they seemed to be very interested in buying your villa.”

The middle-aged man smiled slightly before he took a step forward and said politely, “Hello, Miss

Gibson. My name is Christopher Wilson, and I am very pleased to meet you.”

The visitors were none other than Christopher and his wife, Hannah.
