2023-11-17 22:15:20After a while, everyone regained their composure and burst into laughter.
"What's this joke now? He alone plans to organize a wedding?"
"Wow, I bet he'll slaughter a huge cow for his wedding, I'm already drooling at the thought!"
"The poor thing can't even afford a wedding ring, yet dares to say he'll organize a wedding a hundred times grander than ours?"
"Just look, Lauren has been married for so long, but she doesn't even have a wedding ring to wear."
"She'll become a bride again, just divorce this useless man and marry someone else. She's so beautiful, she'll definitely have opportunities. Otherwise, she'll just wait for the rest of her life."
"By the way, my boss, Young Master Miller, has long fancied Lauren. If she really wants to be a bride, she can divorce him and remarry Young Master Miller." Conrad mocked and pointed towards Young Master, who had just invited Ye Tao for a drink.
Hearing everyone's scornful laughter, Lauren's face turned red, then pale, and she wanted to tear Anderson's mouth.
"What nonsense are you spouting now? Just a moment ago you called someone to act, and now you're staging another scene? Even a madman would talk about organizing a big wedding in Lightharbor. Don't you think this joke is enough for me? I told you to be stronger, not to brag or lie like this! Now you dare to make up such a story, your tongue is indeed quick, why can't you leave me any dignity? Must you make me feel humiliated for you to be happy?"
Lauren was about to explode, but Anderson just looked at her affectionately and said: "Lauren, trust me, if I dared to say that, I'm sure I can do it. From today, I won't let you be sad or cry anymore."
Lauren looked at him in surprise, her eyes wide and shimmering, stunned by his words for the first time. She had never seen Anderson so confident before. Especially, his determined eyes made her feel like they were the gaze of a deity.
"Alright, I'll trust you this time." Lauren said, somewhat perplexed by Anderson's gaze.
"Great, then we have a show to watch. On the 14th, pick up my sister from this house to see who has the grander wedding, let it become the most grand event in Lightharbor." Caroline suggested.
"No problem, I will certainly pick up your sister with all the grandeur possible." Anderson replied.
"Okay, just don't come without saying a word!" Caroline suddenly imagined the scene of Lauren and Anderson coming to her wedding in tattered clothes with ashen faces, and she couldn't help but laugh.
"Anderson, what if you can't do it? We can't allow our family to be humiliated." Mrs. Harris asked.
"If you really want me to divorce Lauren, then if I fail, I'll divorce her and leave the Harris household immediately." Anderson said.
"Very well, good! Remember, you said this. Many people here are witnesses. Don't regret it later!"
Mrs. Harris had always wanted Lauren and Anderson to divorce, intending to have Lauren remarry into the Miller family.
"Rest assured, I will never regret this decision." Anderson stated.
"Lauren, are you deciding to leave with this useless man?" Mrs. Harris asked again.
"Yes!" Lauren, despite her rage, answered firmly.
"Fine, if that's your decision, from tomorrow, you don't need to come to work at our company anymore. After you divorce him, you can come back to work." Mrs. Harris said coldly.
As Mrs. Harris spoke, a stunned silence enveloped everyone. No one expected her to banish Lauren. Lauren herself was shocked. Despite Anderson being of no use to the Harris family over the years, but Lauren had worked diligently. Just because she showed anger today and chose to leave with Anderson, was she ousted from the company?
"I hope you won't regret this decision in the future. Don't expect me and Lauren to help the Harris family with anything." Anderson said icily.
"The Harris family begging you for help? A hollow drum makes the loudest noise; you overestimate yourself!" Mrs. Harris said disdainfully.
She was worried Lauren would use the company's funds to organize a wedding with Anderson, so she ousted her to prevent that from happening, blatantly disregarding all her contributions.
"Anderson, can you think of anything more amusing? Have you taken the wrong medication today? Don't dream, only a dog would beg you!" Christian said.
"Exactly, if you're dreaming, wake up! What do you have that anyone would beg for? Even a dog wouldn't need you! Better go home and take your medicine!" Caroline added.
Seeing Lauren ousted from the company, Caroline and Christian were the happiest. Now that Lauren was gone, she had become inferior to them. They had long wanted to drive Lauren out of the company and the Harris household. They couldn't believe how smoothly everything had gone.
"Lauren, let's go." Anderson said, turning away, ignoring these people and pulling Lauren out without looking back.
"The worst thing about him is his uselessness and his penchant for showing off!" Mrs. Harris's voice could be heard loudly from behind, intentionally loud enough for them to hear.
Outside the Harris estate, Lauren felt like she had just stepped out of a dream.
"Anderson, if you want to divorce me, just say it. Why do you keep embarrassing me with these pointless acts?" Lauren said angrily.
Anderson suddenly stopped: "Beloved wife, when did I want to divorce you?"
"If you don't want to divorce me, why did you make that bet with my grandmother?" Lauren paused, then suddenly asked: "Wait, how are you addressing me right now?"
Because Anderson called her "beloved wife" very affectionately.
"I'm absolutely confident that I won’t lose." Anderson replied calmly.
"Why are you still pretending with me? I still have some savings we can use for our wedding, I don’t want to be embarrassed anymore, let's use it!"
"No need, I have my own way."
"Alright..." Lauren had to pretend to trust Anderson, but she was so angry that she had lost all hope in him: "It doesn’t matter, I’ve been embarrassed for three years now, I don’t care anymore. Being embarrassed one more time won’t make a difference."
Then, with a sad smile, she said: "Anyway, it's good that I can divorce you after this embarrassing event. We will be divorced soon."
Anderson, sweating profusely, didn’t want to explain too much: "Can I borrow your mobile phone for a moment?"
"You don’t have a mobile phone?" Lauren said, displeased.
"I... I’m about to run out of phone credit." Anderson said awkwardly. Actually, he had left his phone at the Harris house, right next to the expensive necklace that had been smashed.
"....."

Lauren was so angry she was speechless. The man who couldn’t even pay his phone bill was boasting about organizing a grand wedding in Lightharbor? Without a word, she angrily handed her phone to Anderson. He took the mobile, went to a corner, and dialed a number listed by the system. This was the number of Fernando Lewis, his grandfather, and also one of the top three most powerful people in the country. Not to mention a small city like Lightharbor, even the whole country could be easily influenced with just a flick of his hand. Meanwhile, at the Lewis residence in Rose Quay city. A man in his seventies was leisurely reviewing a list, appearing both relaxed and dignified. This man was Fernando Lewis, the head of the Lewis family, and a significant influencer in Ivory Essence. Suddenly, his phone rang. He was quite surprised, as no one had called this mobile number in recent years. He only kept it in the hope that his daughter, who had been missing for over twenty-five years, might

"No need, I want to take things slowly. If I suddenly stand too high, it won't win people's hearts." Anderson said. "Alright, tomorrow, you will surely become the chairman of that corporation." Mr. Lewis said. For people like Mr. Lewis, with global achievements, even if his grandson wanted the entire city of Lightharbor, it wouldn't be a problem. But surprisingly, he only wanted a small corporation! "Second, on the 14th of this month, prepare a grand wedding for me in Lightharbor." Anderson began stating his second condition. “Who are you marrying?” "Three years ago, when I got married, it's a pity I didn’t have a wedding then. The 14th this month is my anniversary with Lauren Harris. I want her to be truly happy that day, so I will organize a wedding for her." Anderson said. "Can I attend then?" Mr. Lewis asked, appearing smaller and more humble than ever. It was evident that even a boss like him could seem so diminished in front of his grandson, clearly showing his deep love fo

The next morning, a sensational piece of news spread through Lightharbor City. Pinnacle Dynamics, the largest corporation in Lightharbor, had been acquired by a mysterious owner for a staggering price of 100 billion USD! Pinnacle Dynamics underwent a change of ownership, with the original chairman stepping down and handing over the company to a young talent. This news set off a buzz throughout Lightharbor, with all the major families speculating about the identity of this business giant. When Anderson woke up, he received a message from his grandfather saying that everything had been arranged smoothly and asking him to take over Pinnacle Dynamics. The night before, after buying a new phone, he had sent a message to Mr. Lewis about this new number, so it was not surprising to receive a text from him. But the fact that a seventy-year-old man texted instead of calling showed a certain distance, unfamiliarity with this grandson who had fallen from the sky. Anderson didn't rush to take
I Am Not Useless Son-In-Law! Chapter 11: Termination And Contract Cancellation.
The President's office of Pinnacle Dynamics Corporation is situated on the top floor, and Anderson took the direct elevator to the topmost level. Upon the elevator doors opening, Anderson immediately saw a woman of elegant demeanor, porcelain skin, a tall and slender figure standing beautifully outside the elevator, waiting. This woman was Hannah Allen, the CEO of Pinnacle Dynamics. Fernando Lewis had previously informed Hannah Allen, the CEO, that the new President wished to keep his identity secret and didn't want it widely known, so top personnel should not be present. Only Hannah was waiting on the top floor for the new President's arrival, having waited for quite some time. When Anderson emerged from the elevator, she was momentarily stunned. She had never imagined that the new President of Pinnacle Dynamics would be the notoriously useless son-in-law of the Harris family! She had made numerous guesses about this mysterious new mogul, but Anderson? He was someone with no good re

What Everett valued wasn't the salary of the Director of Project Development, but the influence and status of this position! Never underestimate the power of this managerial role, as its potential could bring limitless benefits to his family. Whenever Pinnacle Dynamics had any new projects, he could prioritize his own family. It's fair to say that being ranked at the top among the major families of Lightharbor was closely related to his position. At last night's party, the people from the Harris family were right. Any family could soar high if they had even a small connection with Pinnacle Dynamics Corporation. How many families had to bow before Pinnacle Dynamics, the emperor of Lightharbor's business district? Now, with Everett removed from his position and Pinnacle Dynamics suspending cooperation with the Lopez family, how could he not be devastated? And the reason for his dismissal was just because he had signed a contract with the Harris family, and his grandson had insulted

"Uncle, no matter what, we're still part of a great family. The Lopez family has its own company; we don't have to work here. Let's return and work for our own company." Conrad consoled. "Hmph, what do you know? Can our family's company compare with Pinnacle Dynamics? Do you know how much I've contributed to the Lopez family from this position?" "Now look, I've lost this position because of you two, disrupting the Lopez family's contracts as well. Do you realize how severe the losses are?" Everett's anger was unabated, with no outlet for his frustration, he continued to berate Conrad. Conrad's face was bruised. He understood that his uncle's loss of position was his fault, and the consequences were indeed severe. "Uncle, it's all that terrible Anderson's fault, he cursed you into being fired. I never thought it would actually happen." Conrad tried to shift the blame to Anderson. "Get out! All of you, leave! I don't want to see the likes of you again!" Everett shouted, clearly not
I Am Not Useless Son-In-Law! Chapter 14: No Wedding Ring.
At that moment, a man's voice suddenly came from inside the house: "Lauren, I've heard about your troubles. You have no feelings for him. It was all because of your grandfather's coercion. But he's gone now, and we can change that on the 14th. I will give you a grand wedding on that day, after all, you will divorce him, why not marry me?" Anderson was certain this man was Cameron Miller, intending to propose to Lauren. Unexpectedly, Avery had even brought Cameron to their doorstep! "I've admired you for a long time. I truly love you. I don't mind that you've been married. Marry me!" Miller continued. Worried that Cameron would grow tired of her daughter, Avery quickly explained: "Although my Lauren married a useless guy, they slept separately. Lauren has never let him touch her. She's still a virgin." "Mom, what are you talking about?" Lauren said, embarrassed. "I'm not saying anything wrong, it's the truth. Otherwise, why haven't you been pregnant in these three years? I've known
I Am Not Useless Son-In-Law! Chapter 15: Multiple Family Contracts Terminated.
Anderson suddenly felt a chill. He realized that using force to reveal Cameron's weak nature was pointless, and he let go of his hand. However, Avery and Cameron thought Anderson was afraid of the Miller family and had to let go. "Anderson, if you have any conscience left, don't delay Lauren's marriage any longer, divorce her quickly so everyone can be happy!" Avery said. "There are only 6 days left until the 14th. Can’t you wait these 6 days? On that day, I will make Lauren the most beautiful bride at the grandest wedding, you will be satisfied. After that, if you still want us to divorce, I will have no further objections." Anderson said. "Why do you keep wanting to embarrass us? With your abilities, you can’t do that, know your place!" Avery retorted. "I don’t want to talk more about the wedding. You will see for yourself then." Anderson said, looking disheartened. Avery didn’t have time to worry about Anderson, she was more concerned about Cameron: "Young Master Miller, are yo

Gregory was a three-star lieutenant. Someone like him couldn’t possibly accompany Anderson to such a dangerous place without bringing some backup!With this thought, Kelly felt much calmer."Want to come here for revenge? How many people did you bring?" Youssef asked arrogantly."To deal with small fries like you, why would we need many people to make a scene? Just the two of us are more than enough." Anderson said coldly.Kelly was surprised to hear this. How could Anderson and Gregory dare to enter the den of the Fierce Tiger gang alone without reinforcements? Were they too arrogant?"Haha, you two nobodies dare to invade my territory without help, truly as bold as if you were deaf to the danger! Your arrogance is irritating! If you want to die that badly, I'll grant your wish!" Youssef said, laughing maniacally."Let’s see who dies first! I will turn your Wonderland into a living hell." Anderson smirked."Fine!

Kelly angrily responded."Of course, you wouldn't want to work here just yet, but after my guys record a few intimate videos between us, you’ll have to obey." Youssef laughed, clearly pleased with himself."I have no quarrel with you people, why do you want to harm me?" Kelly realized she was about to be violated and was completely cornered, but still wanted to try to prolong the conversation to look for a way to escape, so she continued to find something to ask Youssef.Kelly could never have imagined that she would end up in this den of evil; this was truly a horrifying disaster for her."True, there's no grievance between us, but m

But Anderson quickly waved his hand to cut him off: "Enough! No need to discuss it further! I've made my decision. Just follow it!""Understood, General Campbell!" Gregory had no choice but to comply with Anderson's plan."Moreover, to catch the big fish, I can't let anyone find out my true identity. So, tell the task force to alter my personal records." Anderson said."What exactly should we do, sir?" Gregory asked, frowning."It's not complicated, just ask the higher-ups to encrypt my information at the highest level and only show on the public records that I'm a regular special forces soldier." Anderson explained."Got it! I'll get right on it." Gregory said, then hurried off.At the same time, Tobias Obrien, Chairman of the City Law Council, received a call from the Cruz family asking him to investigate Anderson's identity.Tobias Obrien couldn't refuse a request from the wealthiest family in the city, so he personally looked into Anderson's records.After some research, he discov

"What is it? Tell me now!!" Anderson urged, anxious."I just received a confidential document sent from higher up." Gregory said."What confidential document?" Anderson asked, surprised."Our superiors also realize that this city of Lightharbor is too chaotic and facing many issues. Many people in key positions within the city's leadership are corrupt and of poor character. Therefore, our superiors have decided to establish a secret investigative commission." Gregory explained."So, it's about that. But I'm just a man who's been at war all year round, what does that have to do with me?" Anderson asked."It does! It's directly related to you. The higher-ups know that you are originally from Lightharbor, born and raised here. Currently, you are on leave at home. Therefore, they have appointed you as the head of the investigation team."

Anderson almost fell over backward, shocked that his kind and gentle Lauren could entertain such violent thoughts!"You're even considering hiring the underworld?" Anderson couldn't believe his ears."It's just a plan, don't shout about it!" Lauren whispered, regretting her slip of the tongue."The underworld or hired goons are unreliable, don't be deceived by them." Anderson said, starting to sweat. The Sentry Dragon Warrior was right in front of her, and she was still thinking of hiring assassins?"I'm just worried that if you keep acting rashly like you did this afternoon, you'll find yourself in danger sooner or later. Hiring assassins is the best way to both get revenge and avoid those bad situations." Lauren argued, clearly unhappy with Anderson's disapproval."Don't worry about revenge. This place is full of villains. You never know when you might be deceived. Hiring assassins really isn't a good idea!" Anderson said calmly."Fine! Then I won't interfere in this matter anymore.

No one dared stay at the Cruz house any longer, to avoid getting involved.Ultimately, Mrs. Cruz's celebration was completely ruined by Anderson, with the masters injured and the grandson crippled.

He knew Norman's strength, a man with fists as hard as iron. Since knowing him, Tucker had never seen him defeated by any opponent.Norman still couldn't find any opening in Anderson, but he couldn't just stand there forever, so he rushed towards Anderson's right side to punch him first.Immediately, quick as a gust of wind, Anderson moved aside to dodge the punch, while delivering a punch of his own to Norman's body!"Thump-----" the sound of the fist colliding with the body was distinctly audible.Followed by the sound of breaking bone "Crack----".Norman was suddenly pushed back, his right arm bending unnaturally.Meanwhile, Anderson still stood still, his right foot still stepping on Tucker, without any signs of being disturbed!Norman staggered back seven or eight steps before managing to stop himself with his feet.At this point, Norman's face turned pale.
