Paxton The Outstanding Son-in-law

CHAPTER 5

Paxton, of course, wouldn't tell the truth.

Facing the inquiring looks of those around him, he spoke with a smug tone.

"Before coming to the Adams family Mansion, I randomly bought this painting for a few dozen dollars from a street vendor. I Never expected to strike it rich and make a fortune this time."

Countless envious gazes were cast towards Paxton.

This young man was really lucky.

He spent just a few dozen dollars and bought a painting worth billions.

Why couldn't they have such good luck?

Some even began to point fingers at Derby, who had tried to fool them with a fake painting.

Since Paxton's painting was real, Derby's painting must be fake.

They never expected that the Young and talented Derby, who was famous in the city, would try to deceive people with a fake painting.

"Derby, I spent ten million dollars on a fake painting…" 

Derby wore a pained expression under the gaze of those around him.

Of course, he knew the painting was fake.

But the forger had repeatedly assured him that even the most experienced experts wouldn't be able to tell that the painting was fake.

Derby had spent hundreds of thousands on this well-made fake painting.

Many experts in the art world were initially fooled by this well-made fake painting.

They just never expected that Paxton would bring an identical painting with him.

Mr. Roxwell later confirmed that Paxton's painting was a real one, exposing Derby's scheme.

"Derby, you were also deceived by someone else. This matter was not your fault. Just be more careful when buying things in the future. Mr. Roxwell said."

Amelia continued to accuse Paxton,

" You useless waste, you only relied on your luck to get a big fortune, What's there to show off?"

Derby didn't expect his future mother-in-law to defend him like this. 

He nodded continuously and began to taunt.

Paxton, "Auntie, don't worry good luck won't always be with this useless waste".

" I don't know if I have good luck or not, but I know that you are not far from bad luck".

Derby didn't expect Paxton to curse him openly in front of so many people. 

He was about to get angry when he unexpectedly received a phone call, 

"Hello, I am Derby the general manager of a subsidiary of the Brave Ventures Group"...

"I Know you are Derby, but you are no longer the general manager of the Brave Ventures Group's Subsidiary. 

You have been fired by the Brave Ventures!"

Why? What did I do wrong?

What's going on with the headquarters? Derby shouted in panic.

"Because you offended someone you shouldn't have…"

He was clearly in Hawaii, why did he offend someone from the United Kingdom headquarters?

Derby wanted to ask for clarification, but the other end of the phone hung up directly.

"Derby, didn't you say that the tech company in the United States was founded by you?" Amelia asked curiously.

" Brave Ventures Group provided some start-up capital at that time, and I bunt at company… Those American Capitalists are ruthless.

I just made a little progress, and they started to kill the donkey. My father in America has money, alone if I don't go to the United States I can still live a worry-free life.

Amelia nodded.

 Although it was regrettable that this happened Derby was still much stronger than Paxton in all aspects.

When Derby saw that he had fooled Amelia, his face finally looked a little better.

At this moment, another phone call came in "Derby, who the hell did you provoke outside?"

Dad, why are you saying this? I haven't offended anyone with a background recently!

Just now, people from multiple departments came over and seized my company on the charge of illegal business.

I secretly asked one of my acquaintances, and that person told me that it was all because you offended someone outside that you brought this disaster to me.

What did you do that made me lose everything in a day?

The father's voice seemed to come from the sky.

Derby doesn't even know how he hung up the phone in the end.

"Aunt, although I have nothing now, as long as you give me a few years, I will make a comeback. You won't be wrong to be troth Anastasia to me…"

"Get lost"

Amelia suddenly turned her face. 

You said you have nothing, and you still want my beautiful daughter.

Come back and talk to me about this kind of big talk after you make a comeback.

" Paxton is a useless waste and you are even worse than that waste!"

In the beginning, when Paxton saw Derby being so arrogant, he quietly made up his mind.

After the banquet ended, he called Amira to teach the other party a lesson.

Unexpectedly, before he could even speak, Amira, who was delicate and transparent, had already taken the initiative to dismiss Derby and quietly destroyed Derby's father's company.

"Paxton, you are the most distinguished guest of our Adam's family. Come sit next to me ", Eleanor pointed to a seat next to him and said with a smile.

The seat was originally specially prepared for Derby but now Eleanor had it to Paxton, who had given him a gift worth over Hundred million dollars.

Amelia, I cannot accept such a valuable gift from you for nothing.

How about this, I will give you Greystone Mansion as your new house Eleanor said kindly.

"Grandpa, uncle has been asking for that House for years, and a leader in the city has all taken a liking to it recently. Why did you give it to this useless Paxton?"

A young man from Adam's family said unwillingly.

Another middle-aged man from the Adam's family said in a dissatisfied tone, 

"Just because he got lucky and picked up a big leak, you are giving this worthless person a House worth billions, family head!"

Picking up a leak?

Those antique dealers are all more cunning than ghosts. How could they be easily picked up by others?

If it was really about picking up a leak.

It was Anastasia, his smart and beautiful granddaughter who had picked up a big leak. She was able to destroy Derby's family in an instant.

Paxton's identity is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

In the face of the complaints from his fellow tribesmen.

Eleanor slammed the table and said, 

"If any of you can also send a generous gift like Paxton in the future, whether it's by relying on your luck to strike it rich or by other means, 

I am willing to reward you no less than the Greystone Mansion.".

" If you have no ability but only envy other's rewards, don't blame me for not giving you face!"

"As for the matter of Paxton and Anastasia's divorce and remarriage, don't mention it again.

 Also, I heard that you don't get along well with Amelia.

In the House, they can live alone as a young couple. As an elder, you should visit less."
