The Son-In-Law Shot To Fame Chapter 331

Chapter 331 A Call From Ysabel “If I hear you speak another word, I’ll tell Kingsley to break off the partnership with you. Do you want to guess if Kingsley will do my bidding?” asked Donald.

Instantly, Kevin and his family shut their mouths.

Looking at the current state of things, it was highly possible that Kingsley would listen to Donald.

At that moment, Donald’s phone rang. It was Ysabel. “Donald, where are you? My mom has encountered a bit of trouble. Can you come over?”

Ysabel was Jennifer’s cousin. In addition, she was also Linda’s niece.

“I’m not free,” Donald rejected without hesitation.

Ysabel’s mother, Beatrice, and Jennifer’s mother, Linda, were sisters. However, Linda was not willing to keep in contact with the former.

There was a reason for that.

Beatrice was a university lecturer. She was not only highly educated but also had a high income. She was a capable woman. Back then, Ysabel’s father was also a lecturer at Pollerton University. As for Linda, she was merely a country bumpkin. She married Leonard, an average man.

Therefore, Linda had always been jealous of Beatrice.

Despite the fact that Ysabel’s father passed away early on, she still continued to be jealous of Beatrice.

Linda’s parents were still alive, but she had never taken up her responsibility to care for them. All along, Beatrice had been the one to do so.

Linda had always hoped that Jennifer would become successful, and they could then return to the Stern family and flaunt to them. However, her dream never came true.

The Stern family was not a prominent family in Pollerton. Most of its members were mediocre and unambitious.

However, they managed to raise two very capable businessmen.

One of them was called Jeremiah Stern, while the other was called Adrian Stern. Both of them were Jennifer’s distant relatives, her uncles.

Jeremiah opened a few gas stations near the toll stations and service areas.

As for Adrian, he was the general manager of sixteen toll stations along Pollerton’s highway. He was a talented businessman.

Ysabel was furious upon hearing Donald’s rejection. “If you don’t come, I’ll tell Jennifer that you’re Lord Campbell,” she threatened.

Donald furrowed his eyebrows. “Are you trying to threaten me?”

Hearing his displeased tone, Ysabel instantly changed her tone into a coquettish one and pleaded, “Please come! I beg of you!”

“What happened?” he asked in a resigned tone.

Ysabel sighed before saying, “I need your help in two matters. For the first matter, my mom has arranged for me to go on a blind date. It’s with my distant relative, Adrian’s son. The other thing is the director of Pollerton Film Academy keeps harassing my mom.”

After some deliberation, Donald asked, “How did he harass her?”

Ysabel answered, “Mr. Harper keeps stalking her. Every night, he knocks on my house door. I’m scared for my life! But we can’t afford to offend him. His nephew is a famous celebrity called Julian Harper.

Furthermore, he hangs out with Ethan Lynch, a gang leader in Pollerton.”

Donald looked at the time before saying, “All right, when do you want me to go over?”

“This afternoon. I’ll meet you at the entrance of Pollerton University. See you there!” she answered.

With that, not giving Donald a chance to respond, she quickly hung up.

Almost simultaneously, he received a message on his phone: Lord Campbell, the large collider has arrived in Terrandya. It should arrive in Pollerton by this afternoon. However, it’s not possible to bring the artificial sun to Pollerton. It’s too huge. It’s over sixty meters long and twelve meters wide. On top of that, it takes up four car lanes and has to go past sixteen toll stations to get to Pollerton.

“In that case, we should dismantle the city’s tolls. After that, we will compensate according to the market value,” Donald muttered to himself.

Following that, he phoned Joshua and asked, “Mr. Green, can the sixteen toll stations along Pollerton highway be dismantled?”

Joshua was utterly astonished to hear his words. “These toll stations are controlled by the Yund family.

It’s one of the local economy’s income streams. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to negotiate a price for tearing them down.”

Donald remarked, “I will pay for the costs of demolishing and reconstructing them. Additionally, I’ll compensate them at a price that is one and a half times the market value.”

Joshua pondered for a bit before saying, “That’s not for me to decide. Mr. Yund is already back, so why don’t you discuss this with him instead?”
