Chapter 51
Through their interactions in the past few days, Naomi had realized that her husband wasn’t all that ordinary after all. This was in spite of the humiliation he had faced in the past three years and how he had been labeled as a piece of trash.Ever since she had made it clear to her mom that she wasn’t getting a divorce from him, Arthur had changed.Even so, he was still nothing more than a matrilocal son-in-law in this family. He was still the same piece of trash who was at her mother’s mercy.Naomi had already thought it through; she knew that her husband had done this all for her sake.At the thought of this, her heart blossomed with joy. This was why she had passed her spouse a drink and had even told him to stay safe as he was heading out.“Ok.” With a simple reply, Arthur headed out of the house.The information that Wampus had sent over had to do with the Donovan family.Arthur was very interested in the Donovan family. As such, he headed toward Pacific Heights.Very qu

Nella Collins’ unique fragrance nearly threw Arthur off-guard as he started getting a little dizzy.He shook his head, trying to break free of that pain.But Nella merely smiled gently at him as she moved over to sit right next to him.Initially, the pair had been sitting opposite each other. But with Nella right next to him, it was inevitable for the pair to touch each other.“Auntie, you…”“What’s wrong? Aren’t we relatives? Why do you mind?”Arthur picked up a glass of water from the table and poured it over his own face as he shook his head vigorously. Then, he rushed off.Seeing Arthur in such a frenzy, darkness covered Nella eyes. “Humph, he’s just a piece of trash! If not for the fact that I need to help my son take down your family, you wouldn’t even have a chance to touch me, you piece of trash! I’m letting you off this time. Next time, I’ll surely accuse you of raping me. We’ll see how your family maintains their place in the Downey family when that time comes.”…A

“Sir, please leave.”Arthur had never in a million years expected that the manager—who had been very kind and friendly just seconds earlier—to chase him away after hearing that he was the Downey family’s matrilocal son-in-law.“So what if I’m that matrilocal son-in-law? I’m here to buy a car. Does it matter what my identity is?”The manager sneered.?‘It’s true that it’s my principle not to look down on anyone because even the most plainly dressed customer can be secretly wealthy. Unfortunately for you, Arthur Grey, you’re really too ordinary. You’re so ordinary that there’s no way you’ll ever have a chance to even prove yourself.’‘Everyone knows that you haven’t been allowed to sleep upstairs in the past three years as the Downey family’s matrilocal son-in-law. You even have to cook and clean every day. You’ve done everything remotely possible to humiliate all men. It’s embarrassing to even let you stay here.’The one thing the manager wanted to do most was to chase this jinx ou

Ms. Corbin?’?Arthur was stunned.?‘Has something happened to Priscilla Corbin?’ He got in the car and stepped on the accelerator, flying toward Pacific Heights. By now, Andrew Grover, Robin Hemsworth, William Corbin, and Joseph Rhodes all owned their own properties at Pacific Heights. Very quickly, Arthur Grey arrived at the Corbin family’s residence. Andrew Grover, Robin Hemsworth, and the rest were pacing up and down at the gate. Arthur could tell from their faces that they were worried sick. As he headed into the house, he asked, “What happened?” “Master Atlas, I’m afraid Ms. Corbin isn’t doing well. Dr. Vega came over, but he shook his head as well.” Arthur knew that the Dr. Vega they were talking about was Aaron Vega. He was the most renowned doctor in the entire world and was known to raise people from the dead. But even Aaron Vega had shook his head this time. Arthur walked into Priscilla Corbin room, but the rest did not follow. They stood outside the door, not allowi

“Ack!”Everyone outside the room clearly heard Priscilla Corbin vomiting blood.Her brother flew into the room frenziedly, but he was greeted by an unexpected sight.After vomiting that blood clot out, Priscilla now looked much better. As she lay there and saw her brother rush in, she sneered.The pitiful weeping beauty in front of him pained his heart.?‘My sister has suffered through too much while staying by my side. There are many who envy me because of my position as the head of Seattle’s Corbin family and Thunderbird of Atlas Hall. But nobody knows that my deepest desire is simply for my sister to live a peaceful life. At that time, I had only entered Atlas Hall because they had saved my sister.’Arthur Grey remained outside the room; he was in no hurry at all.Everything was under his control.He had initially intended to stay the night to watch over Priscilla. But now that she had already vomited blood, he could put his mind to rest.Arthur strolled into the room.When

Naomi Downey hummed as she walked out with a trash bag. Then, she spotted her husband lighting a cigarette in a car.She tossed the trash bag into the trash can next to her and walked straight up to Arthur Grey. There was an indecipherable smile on her face.Arthur felt his hair stand on end as he caught a glimpse of that smile.“Not bad, Mr. Grey. You’re even driving such a luxurious car now.”Arthur was so frightened that he immediately got out of the car and stubbed his cigarette.“Explain yourself.” Naomi was polite and still had a smile on her face.Arthur picked up the cigarette and walked toward the trash can.“Where are you going?”“To throw this cigarette away.”Thud!Naomi slammed her fist down on the car. “Stop right there!”Arthur Grey—Master Atlas, head of Atlas Hall—stopped in his tracks, not daring to move the slightest bit.“Tell me what’s with this car.”“Oh, the car. Would you believe me if I said that I won it in a lucky draw?”Naomi’s smile got more ch

Naomi Downey could no longer take it.?‘My husband has made great contributions to our family. Does my mom think it’s very easy to wash the clothes, cook our meals, and clean the house every day? There were many times that my significant other paid for our food out of his own pockets. In fact, it was my husband who had gotten me this position as the Deputy CEO.‘Also, he had clearly purchased this car with his own money. Mom was going overboard by telling him not to even touch the car. Now, she’s even saying such hurtful things.’“Mom…” Naomi shouted, wanting to blurt out the truth so that her mom would treat her husband better in the future.However, Arthur walked up to stop her. “Yes, Mom. You’re right. I’ll remember whatever you said.”“Go away then; don’t stand in my way. Naomi, what did you want to say?”Naomi paused for a moment but chose to respect her husband’s decision. “Nothing much. I’m tired, so I’m going back to rest. You can look at the car all you want.”With that,

“Forget it; I’ll let you drive. Will that do?” Arthur Grey got out of the car and headed to the front passenger seat.Mateo was overwhelmed with emotion as he heard those words. After getting into the driver’s seat, he looked and felt around, wanting nothing more than to steal that car key.“Aren’t we leaving?” Arthur glanced at Mateo.?‘He’s like a country bumpkin who is seeing the world for the first time.’“Alright, alright. Let’s go.” Mateo stepped on the accelerator, and the car flew off.Earlier on, Arthur had been slightly worried that Mateo didn’t know how to drive. But after they moved off, he realized that the latter drove rather steadily.However, he thought about it again.?‘Mateo James cares a lot about appearances. Even though their family doesn’t have a car, he probably rents a car often. Of course, the ones he rents can’t compare to this BMW 5 series.’“Arthur Grey, your family seems quite rich now. You guys can even afford a BMW?” They hadn’t driven far before Ruth

As expected, Ruth Carlton’s words were effective.Sarah Carlton—who was on the other end of the call—exploded. “What? Arthur, you hit someone with the car? Do you want to die? Where are you? Did you damage the car…”Arthur could feel her murderous intent even through the phone.?‘It seems like I won’t be able to clear the air on the phone. We need to have this conversation face-to-face.’As such, Arthur told her the address.Within ten minutes, Sarah, Henry, and Naomiarrived.Without saying a word, Sarah rushed up to slap her son-in-law in the face without any hesitation. “Arthur, what did I tell you before you left? You still damaged the car!”Sarah glanced at the car; there were indeed a few scratches.Her heart ached, and she was about to slap him a second time when her daughter grabbed her arm. “Alright. Let’s find out what happened first.”“Humph!” Sarah was utterly displeased with her daughter’s actions.“How is it? Are you hurt?” Naomi knew that her husband was the one

What Ruth Carlton meant by a perfect plot was to frame Arthur and make him take responsibility for her son’s crimes.Yet, Sarah Carlton agreed to that suggestion. It wasn’t because she liked her nephew very much. Rather, she felt that her sister was right.?‘It was the late Old Master who had introduced Arthur Grey to us and forced him to marry into our family. As such, I can’t afford to chase him away for fear of offending the Downey family. But what if he has killed someone in a hit-and-run accident? As his mother-in-law, I have full authority to chase him out of the Downey family because of that.’Thus, this strange pair of sisters came to an agreement.…In the hospital.Beatrice looked at the examination report and heaved a sigh of relief.“I’m really sorry. Is Granny feeling alright?”Beatrice shook her head. “I haven’t thanked you for what you did the previous time. She’s fine; she was just a little shocked. She’s recovering well.”Upon hearing that the old granny was fi
