Quentin’s plan couldn’t get any more vicious. He had asked Kate to tell Arthur about the instigator behind the whole matter.What would he do after learning about it?Firstly, he could choose not to let Naomi know about it. Then, she would have to resign from her position.Once she resigned, Quentin would tell her that her husband had already known about the instigator behind the whole thing. It was just that he hadn’t told her about it.The couple was sure to get into an argument then, and they might even get divorced.What would happen then? It would be going against the late Old Master’s wishes.That way, Naomi’s family was sure to be chased out of the Downey family.His grandpa cared most about filial piety and the family’s reputation.Of course, Arthur could choose a different route: telling Naomi about the instigator.What would that lead to? She was sure to head to the Ramsdale family for a discussion to avoid having to resign from the company.This was what Quentin h

You can’t enter.”“Her husband, Arthur Grey.”Pfft!The security officers burst out into laughter. “Oh, you’re the infamous, good-for-nothing matrilocal son-in-law of San Francisco’s Downey family.”“You’re famous in San Francisco. I’m sorry for not recognizing you earlier, but you aren’t allowed to enter.”Even though Arthur had already announced his identity, the security officers refused to let him in.Arthur shrugged. “Alright then. We’ll visit another day.”He then turned to leave with his wife.“Why are you guys leaving? My subordinates are just incompetent. You could’ve just called out for me.” A man with a cigar in his hand was looking toward the gate from t

Ethan Ramsdale glanced at Arthur and shook his head. ‘This man is ridiculous.’In the past, Liam Ramsdale had thought that the latter had to be a prominent figure. After all, he had been respected at the All Stars Hotel.However, he had never expected him to be the infamous, good-for-nothing matrilocal son-in-law of San Francisco, Arthur Grey.There was nothing he could do right.It was humiliating for a man to live his life in this way.“Naomi Downey, are you a fool, or are you just pretending to be one? Look around you. Where are you? It’s the Ramsdale family’s house. You can’t blame me since you were the one who threw yourself into my arms. Piece of trash, you’d better scram. If you dare to stand in my way, I’ll get someone to break all your bones!” Ethan whistled, and immediately, four bodyguards appeared.They rubbed their palms while staring at Arthur, their gazes full of hostility.Naomi was afraid and shrank before her husband—she was scared stiff.?‘I never should’ve be

It was so serious that it couldn’t be written in the books. However, he had been here for more than half an hour, but Quentin had yet to say anything.The Old Master was starting to get a little impatient.“Grandpa, the person Brother is talking about isn’t here yet.

If you don’t say it, I’m going back.”He slammed his watch on the table. The wait had made him uncomfortable.“Forget it, I’ll just say it.

Naomi answered every single one of Quentin’s questions. They all pointed to the same thing—that Naomi was dirtied by Ethan Ramsdale.“You piece of trash, didn’t you go with her yesterday? Why can’t you even protect your own woman? You let your wife get raped right in front of you?” Quentin glanced at Arthur in disdain.“Naomi, you’re such a disappointment. I’ve decided to…” The Old Master—Albert Downey’s blood was boiling.He slammed the today, causing everyone to shut up.He was just about to announce that he would kick Naomi’s family out of the Downey family.

“Call the boss over,” ordered the staff as he stripped off his uniform, revealing a muscular and toned body. “Why don’t you look at whose turf this is before trying to stir up trouble?”The staff thought that the man standing in front of him was crazy. How could he be so daring as to make a din here?His boss, Scott Barnes, was possibly the only prominent figure in San Francisco that had reaches across half the city. Did he have a death wish?The staff threw a punch at Arthur; it was full of vitality and strength.Arthur wasn’t at all interested in getting into a fight with someone like this.

But the moment Ruth Carlton’s family left, Sarah’s heart started aching for that sum of money.She started to blame Arthur Grey. “Why did you throw that punch? Look, because of that punch, our family lost 30,000 dollars for no good reason.”Naomi quickly stood up for her husband. “Mom, I’m sure we both know just what kind of people Ruth’s family are. Even without Arthur’s punch, their family would’ve found another reason to take this money from us. Besides, it isn’t even the first time such a situation has happened. If you really want to resolve the matter, you have to deal with the root cause of it. There’s only one solution: severing all ties with them.”“It’s not even the first time I’m telling you to do this, but you’ve never agreed to go through with it. Not only did Arthur do nothing wrong this time, but he even managed to help you gain respect as an older sister. Don’t you think so?”Sarah naturally knew in her heart that everything her daughter had said was true. However,

“Ms. Jones, right? One billion—I want to withdraw it right now. If you don’t have enough cash here, you’d better call your superiors and get them to send it over now. I want cash.” Arthur placed his Atlas card in Ms. Jones’ hand.In an instant, Ms. Jones was on the verge of tears.?‘A billion dollars. It’s true that an Atlas card holder can choose to withdraw any amount at any branch, but I don’t want that branch to be my branch. This is because I would have to take full responsibility for whatever happened in that case. Perhaps they won’t just fire me for losing this Atlas card holder. In fact, they might even kill me. I would be blacklisted from the finance industry from then on.’In fact, Ms. Jones was even worried that they might simply kill her because of their fear of Arthur Grey.Ms. Jones landed a slap on the manager’s face. “Scram! You’re fired! Get lost! Don’t you dare to show up here again!”The branch head’s furious roar attracted many dumbfounded stares.As onlookers

“Arthur Grey.” Naomi had thought that her husband would use this opportunity to fight for some benefits for himself, but he had asked for this instead!?‘It’s true. Everything he does is for our family.’Arthur waved his wife off, seemingly knowing what she wanted to say. However, he didn’t let his wife say anything.“Alright, we’ll agree to your request.” After a discussion, Ruth Carlton’s family finally agreed to Arthur’s request. “When are you going to give us the money?”“Tomorrow.”“Ok.”After what had just happened, family couldn’t stand to sit down for their meal any longer.As they left, Ruth turned back constantly. Perhaps her heart ached for all the seafood she had yet to eat.Once the family of three left, Sarah started worrying about money again. She started blaming Arthur. “You’re really a good-for-nothing. They were dealing with Mateo, so why did you have to step up? Our family now has to fork out 30,000 dollars for nothing.”Naomi rolled her eyes at her mother. “

Alfred Shelby thought that this was great, and he acted as though he was watching a show.He took great pleasure in turning someone against someone else.But Mateo was a nobody. If he could even touch Arthur Grey, the latter never would’ve become Master Atlas.Arthur simply flicked his finger at Weston Shaw’s neck. Then, the latter flew back as though he was a balloon that had been kicked.Thud!Mateo slammed against the wall and fell to the ground.Seeing her son getting beaten up again, Ruth Carlton flared up once again and starting yelling. “Arthur Grey, how dare you hit my son? I’m going to kill you!”Ruth roared, completely forgetting that her son had started the fight in the first place. It was just a pity that her son was too weak and was no match for Arthur.“Shut up.” Arthur’s gaze froze Ruth Carlton in her tracks.She felt a chill run down her spine.?‘Why am I even afraid of a good-for-nothing matrilocal son-in-law?’Unfortunately, she was truly terrified.

Naomi Downey wanted to get up, but her husband stopped her. In the end, she sat back down.“I’ll fight it out with you since you dare to step on my son!” Ruth Carlton was an unreasonable person to begin with. Now that someone was stepping on her son, she rushed forward without any thought.But another muscular man gently pushed her back into her seat.Everyone froze.“Boss, what did my son do? How did he offend you guys?” Lawrence James was still sober and not drunk. As such, he stood up, wanting to learn about what had happened.The bald man slammed a wallet onto the table. “Your son stole my wallet. How do you think I should handle this?”“My son stole your wallet?” Lawrence James was dumbfounded.“Dad, don’t listen to their nonsense. I was in the toilet, and the wallet was on the basin. Finders keepers, so I took it. But now, they’re saying that I stole it!”The bald man chuckled. He opened the wallet in front of everyone and took out the identity card in it. “Look, isn’t t

Very quickly, Mateo found out where the seafood area was.Then, the shameless family of three headed over to take a look at the spread.“This looks good. It’s an Australian lobster, isn’t it?” Ruth pointed at a lobster while asking the waitress nearby.“Yes, these are authentic Australian lobsters.”“Alright, we’ll take seven.”The waitress was stunned. “Madam, customers usually order only one Australian lobster. It’s more than enough.”“What, can’t we have one per person? Do you think we can’t afford it?”“You misunderstood me, Madam. That’s not what I meant.”“Hurry up and put it aside for us then.”The waitress could only say that she had been enlightened today. She had never seen anyone order an Australian lobster for each person.“This—is this abalone?”“Yes, these are authentic abalones from the East China Ocean.”“We’ll take five kilograms of this for now.”‘Er…’?The waitress seemed to want to say something but restrained herself.“What’s this?” Ruth Carlton point

He had clearly bought the car, yet her mom wouldn’t even allow him to touch the car!Even after Mateo had gotten into an accident with the car, her mom had chosen to blame her husband instead!She thought about how much Arthur had had to endure and tolerate in the past three years—things he shouldn’t have needed to tolerate.Naomi gave the matter some thought.?‘Have I ever thrown tantrums or scolded him for no good reason in the past three years? But I’m certainly not that kind of person. I’m an educated and useful member of society.’?However, she thought deeper about the matter. Then, she suddenly remembered about a dozen incidents where she seemed to have unreasonably scolded her husband just like she had done today.In the face of this unjust punishm

Because of Ruth Carlton’s provocation, Sarah Carlton grew even more dissatisfied with her son-in-law. She felt that her family had encountered so many troubles all because of him.?‘We’re the eldest family in the Downey family, yet we’re about to get kicked out of the family! Isn’t it all because we have a piece of trash that is Arthur Grey who’s dragging us down?’“Mom, can you be more rational? Do you really not know how much Arthur Grey has done for our family? Don’t waver just because Auntie is saying some things.”Sarah panted heavily; it seemed like she was truly infuriated.“Naomi, stop it. Look at how angry your mom is.”Naomi wanted to calm her mom down but was lectured by her father before she could even do so.“She’s trying to drive me to my grave. I’m going to die.”Naomi could no longer stand watching her mom throw her tantrum. “Fine. You can throw your tantrum for all I care.

Of course, Arthur wasn’t saying that just to show off his affection for his wife. He wasn’t that lame.“This is my wife, Naomi Downey. She’s the Downey family’s eldest daughter and the Downey Corporation’s Deputy CEO.”As Arthur introduced his wife, Beatrice felt that the latter’s name sounded familiar.When he finally finished his introduction, Beatrice had an awkward expression plastered on her face. “You mean that she’s Naomi Downey and that you’re Arthur Grey?”He nodded.Beatrice’s expression fell even further. She seemed to have something to say, yet she didn’t dare to voice her thoughts.Even Arthur thought that it looked ridiculous. “Is there something you don’t dare to say? Do you mean to ask if I’m that useless matrilocal son-in-law everyone in San Francisco talks about?”Then, he nodded. “Yes.”Because he had been so direct, Beatrice’s expression changed to one of indignation. “That’s maligning you! That’s entirely false! Do you know who spread that rumor? I’ll help
