The Son-In-Law Shot To Fame Chapter 78
Son-In-Law Madness
Rafe gave Frankie a thumbs-up. After a momentâs hesitation, he asked, âIs it true you have a beautiful cousin?â
Frankie froze for a moment and thought that Rafe was quite a shy man. âOf course, itâs true.â
Meanwhile, Donald arrived at Pollerton General Hospital to visit his grandfather.
Raymond was already up. Though he was quite thin, he was in good spirits. His eyes may looked aged, but they contained immense wisdom.
âYou have changed,â he commented as he looked at Donald straight in the eye.
Donald remained silent. Although he seemed rather reserved and unimpressive at this moment, Raymond could still see the majestic aura that Donald exuded.
âHave you ever regretted choosing this path because of me?â Raymond asked in a low voice.
Upon hearing that, Donald immediately raised his gaze and looked at his grandfather.
In his impression, Raymond had always seemed to be an ordinary man, even after Donaldâs return to Pollerton. But what is going on now?
âGrandpa, you,â
With a wave of his hands, Raymond interjected, âYou cannot break up with her. Do you understand me?â
âWhy?â Donald asked.
âJust remember what I told you.â Raymond looked at him meaningfully, and Donald returned the gaze as well.
After a while, Raymond gave another wave of his hand. âYou may go back now. I need my rest.â
As he quietly observed Donaldâs leaving figure, his face darkened. It seemed as if an imminent storm was brewing.
Donald went to Pollerton Real Estate after leaving the hospital.
When Reina welcomed him, she passed her phone to him. âHave a look at this.â
Pollerton Television was reporting an exclusive interview.
A young man whose face was pixelated to keep his identity anonymous was present in the video. In the clip, a reporter was asking, âAre you the person who took the video of Reina eating the scarlet swan?â
âThatâs right. After all, itâs against the law to eat the scarlet swan. My girlfriend was with me at the party that day, but I think itâs not a decent thing to do. So, I asked my girlfriend to stay away from Reina.â
âThere were some rumors of you with Ms. Wilson, werenât there?â The reporter suddenly became interested in the young manâs love life.
He remained silent for a moment before replying, âYes, but it was all in the past now.â
His reply seemed to pique the reporterâs interest in the topic. âArenât you worried that Reina might blame you for this? I even heard that your current girlfriend is one of her friends.â
âThereâs nothing I can do even if she blames me for this. Iâm doing this because this is the right thing to do.â
âVery well. Iâm sure this interview will get viral within a day. Letâs make the necessary preparations for the second interview with Pollerton Television,â Donald uttered.
Sure enough, the interview from Pollerton Television became the most viewed video of the week, and it was even trending on Twitter.
When the news reached Jennifer, she felt that something was off, but she could not quite put her finger on the odd feeling she had.
âNigel, have you seen the interview from Pollerton Television?â After giving it a thought, she decided to call Nigel, who was panting on the other end of the phone.
âIâve seen that, but donât you worry. It canât stir up anything. Our aim is to let the public know that eating scarlet swan is illegal.â
wa Jennifer replied, âBut I think that something is off.â
âWhat could be wrong? You just have to do your job!â With that, Nigel ended the call.
She frowned and hesitated for a long time before she called the number she had remembered very well. It was Conner Wilson whom she wanted to call.
The bedridden elderly man was the previous Tayhaven King and the pillar of the Wilson family. He wanted the Eight Branches of the Wilson family to unite and wished for their family company to be the top conglomerate.
âGranduncle Conner, how are you doing?â Jennifer asked.
âCut to the chase.â Conner sounded quite weak.
âNigelâs previous plan was to target Scarlet Swan Villa, but I donât think it will work now. First of all, itâs not worth the effort. Besides, Iâm positive that a wise man is giving them pointers. My suggestion is to give up on targeting that property and focus on Southwood E-commerce District instead!â she suggested.
