The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 171: Imposter
"He's the old friend who has been secretly helping me all this while. I wouldn't have guessed it was him if he hadn't admitted it himself."Susan said calmly, indicating Douglas.At this, Douglas smiled humbly and waved his hand. "Just some small favors, easy to lend a hand. No need to stand on ceremony. If I hadn't heard you were looking for me, I wouldn't have admitted it."But upon hearing this, Jason was dumbfounded. Old friend? And he admitted it himself? If only this guy knew the original, authentic "old friend" was Jason himself!Was he impersonating Jason?Staring at the arrogantly boasting Douglas, Jason looked puzzled. This guy really had some nerve to brazenly admit it himself. Where did he get the audacity? It turns out that's why he looked familiar. As the youngest successful entrepreneur in Emerald City, his name was indeed well known. But Jason didn't expect him to know Susan, let alone have such history with her. If not for the fact that he was impersonating him, Jaso
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 172: Mr. Hill Appeared
Hearing this, Susan realized it made sense. She apologized awkwardly, "Sorry, I was too blunt. Mr. Douglas is the rising star of the new generation in Emerald City, your methods must be extraordinary." Seeing this, Douglas secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Crisis averted. But the next second, Jason calmly continued, "Then I presume you must also know Mr. Hill?""Mr. Hill? What?" Douglas cursed internally, but saw Susan excitedly stand up and cry out joyfully, "Mr. Douglas, you know Mr. Hill too? Could it be...my billion dollar investment was also thanks to you lobbying for me?"She had always wondered about this matter, and had suspected the "old friend", but didn't expect it to really be so!Seeing her excitement, Douglas hastily smiled modestly, "Just small favors, didn't expect you to find out. Mr. Hill is actually a long-time friend of mine. We had dinner together the day before yesterday. Our relationship is great."Who cares who the Sir is, just agree to everything now. The
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 173: King
"What?" Everyone was shocked hearing this.Scanning the entire cafe, there were only the four of them. It definitely wasn't Susan or Mr. Hill, and aside from Douglas, the only one left was... the leisurely Jason!That most improbable, unbelievable person?"It's... him?"Upon hearing this, Douglas laughed uproariously, mocking, "Utterly ridiculous, preposterous! This useless fool couldn't even help without messing up. I admit I'm not that 'old friend', but it certainly isn't this useless fool either.""You pretend to be serious, but your lies are even more outrageous than mine. If he really was that 'old friend', I'll immediately... wash my hair!" Hearing this, Susan's expression also changed, giving Jason an odd look as if reassessing him.But under everyone's gaze, Jason helplessly smiled wryly, "Mr. Hill, you praise me too much. I merely happened to meet Mr. Hill by chance, knew Susan needed investment, so I connected the dots. "The success of Southside Branch is entirely Susan
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 174: Unexplainable Misunderstanding
Jason was so angry he almost wanted to curse out loud, itching to explain everything to Susan.He had to remember Emily's endless exhortations for him to keep it a secret no matter what, otherwise once her identity as a Cook family heiress was exposed, it would definitely cause estrangement between her and Susan. Their pure friendship would become difficult to regain.After all, one stood at the pinnacle of the pyramid, while the other stood at the base. This disparity in status was too great."It looks like you're finally willing to admit it. Go on, choose. No matter what you pick, I won't blame you," Susan said indifferently. "I..." Jason was exasperated. "This is a huge misunderstanding. Let me get Emily to personally explain to you that this is all fake."But after making calls for half a day, no one picked up. It was as if everyone had gone incommunicado."Give it up. I called her dozens of times without a single answer. Emily definitely doesn't want to see this. But since it
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 175: Hand Over the Bank Card
However, the happiest one was undoubtedly Mary Martinez. She had finally caught Jason's handle, and would definitely take this chance to drive him out."What act? Stop pretending at this point. Do you think we're idiots? Freeloading in my house for three years, harboring sinister designs all along. He's no good, it'd be disastrous if he stays any longer." "Get out! Get out of my house. If you dare step in again, I'll break your legs and ruin you."Mary Martinez stood with hands on hips, cursing fiercely.But at this moment, Kyle's mother Grace Diaz, who had heard the commotion, quickly dissuaded, "Madam, please calm down. I don't think Mr. Gray is that kind of person. There must be some misunderstanding here."Having lived half a lifetime, she had seen all kinds of people. She still had that much judgement. She believed Jason had an upright heart, after all he was the merciful and skilled Medical Sage. Also, if he had really done such a thing, he wouldn't be painstakingly explaining
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 176: Withdraw Money
Nothing that entered her mouth had ever come back out. After getting all of Jason's private money, she would kick him out with one foot. This was the outcome for useless things.After handing over the bank card, this farce finally temporarily died down.Jason was extremely tired, but things weren't over yet. He still had to prove his innocence. He immediately called Lawrence."Help me find someone as fast as possible. Her name is Emily..."With Lawrence's help now, some of Steven Martin's headaches and difficult matters were not even worth mentioning to Lawrence, such was the gap in their abilities.This was also why Steven Martin respectfully addressed him as Mr. Lawrence.Night fell, and Jason silently slept in the living room, letting out a helpless long sigh. Back to the living room again, when could he return to the warm bed?"Emily, hurry up and show yourself!"The night passed silently, with nary a gust of wind. Jason had slept in the living room all night. On Lawrence's end,
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 177: Able to Withdraw $100 Million
A gaudily dressed lady also mocked, "Nowadays there are many shameless braggarts, and many fools too. But I'm seeing people with mental issues coming to cause trouble in a bank for the first time."The uniformed beauty was also impatient. "If you're here to make trouble, don't blame me for asking security to kick you out. If you're looking for a psychiatric hospital, turn right." "How dare you! Who's making trouble? I just want to withdraw some money, what does it have to do with you? I see you're just jealous. What, can't stand seeing me have money? I live in a mansion and drive sports cars every day. $100 million is nothing!" Mary Martinez retorted arrogantly, unwilling to back down.
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 178: Youth Summit
No matter how tempting the card was, she still believed there was no such thing as a free lunch. She absolutely could not touch the $100 million. It was likely some financial scam - her mother had already fallen for it at the investment company last time."No problem, please come with me." The manager quickly led the way respectfully. No matter what, he absolutely could not afford to offend them. That was what the bank president had warned him.Mary Martinez wanted to say more, but stopped herself. Only $1 million? But seeing the strange looks from the lady and the crowd, she cleared her throat. Let it be for now, or she'd be embarrassed if she couldn't deliver later.

Chapter 381: Conclusion
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"A series of dull impacts resounded through the room, accompanied by cries of pain. Bodyguards were sent flying with single slaps or kicked into walls, the scene utter chaos.In moments, over a dozen guards lay incapacitated. Even Bennett found himself on the receiving end of a devastating punch to the chest, sent flying as he coughed up blood."Who... who are you? It's impossible... How can someone so young possess such formidable skills? Cough... ugh..." Bennett struggled to speak through his pain.Jason was undoubtedly the youngest Martial Arts Master he had ever encountered, and easily among the top ten in skill."My name is Jason. I warned you: harm her, and you'd face a gruesome end. The Murphy family will pay dearly for this transgression." Jason's cold voice accompanied his methodical approach.He made no move to pursue Henry Murphy. There was no need—the man couldn't truly escape. Even if he fled Central Area, Jason could drag him back."Jason? Jackson! You
Chapter 380: The Tables Turn
Jason, his face a mask of cold fury, tightened his grip on Henry Murphy's throat. He addressed Bennett, "The tables have turned. Your choices are simple: mutual destruction or her release. Decide."His grip tightened further, nearly crushing Henry Murphy's windpipe. The young heir's face turned an alarming shade of purple as he struggled for air."Quickly... cough cough... save... save me..." Henry Murphy choked out desperately.Henry Murphy never anticipated falling into such a trap. He had dismissed Jason entirely, viewing him as nothing more than a notorious weakling. Who could have foreseen that he was actually a formidable opponent?A grave miscalculation indeed.This young man was far from ordinary.Alas, this realization came too late. Two powerful fingers now threatened to crush his windpipe at any moment."Stop... stop this, you scoundrel! If you dare harm our young master, the Murphy family will annihilate your entire Brown family. You'll all perish!" Bennett roared in threa
Chapter 379: A Tricky Situation
Her venomous words dripped with contempt, a stark contrast to her recent pleas for mercy. It was Jason who had shown her kindness then, advising her to disappear. Clearly, his words had fallen on deaf ears.Perhaps the allure of wealth and status proved too strong to resist.Henry Murphy, disdaining further dialogue, fixed Jason with an intense gaze. "I hear you possess jade pendants of a particular hue. Moreover, you seem to understand their significance and have been collecting them. Excellent. Hand them all over to me.""Such high-grade Mystical Objects are beyond the likes of you. Cooperate, and if I'm feeling generous, I might spare your miserable life.""Jade pendants?" Jason's pupils constricted as he suddenly turned his piercing gaze towards Ashley, murderous intent radiating from him."It was you. You told him!"The revelation stunned him. This wretched woman had not only betrayed his kindness but had also sold him out.Ashley's knowledge of the jade pendants was no surprise
Chapter 378: Jealousy Drives People Mad
"Cough... cough!"Susan coughed with difficulty as the gag fell away. She gazed at the frenzied, sharp-tongued Ashley, shaking her head with a complex expression. "You're mistaken. I've never tried to compete with you. This is all in your imagination.""Besides, no matter how envious you are, it shouldn't drive you to such extremes. Do you truly harbor such hatred towards me?"Had Ashley not confessed, Susan might never have imagined that envy could transform someone so drastically, leading them down this irredeemable path of ruthlessness."Hmph, spare me your false sympathy. In my eyes, you're nothing but a contemptible wretch. If I hadn't caught you, would you be uttering these words so meekly? You're probably gloating inside!""Let me tell you this: you'll never rise above me again. You belong beneath my feet, nothing more than a lowly creature!"Ashley sneered through gritted teeth.As she raised her hand to strike again, another resounding slap echoed through the room. However, t
Chapter 377: Familiar Face
Jason's face turned frosty, his teeth clenched as he spoke, "I swear, if you harm a single hair on her head, I will annihilate your entire lineage. No matter who you are or what your status might be, do not underestimate my capabilities or my resolve.""State your demands clearly. Whatever you want, I'll provide. But if you provoke me... you will regret it immensely."He spoke while barely containing his fury, utterly shocked by this turn of events. With the enemy holding the upper hand, he rapidly tried to deduce their identity.The voice was vaguely familiar, but not entirely recognizable. Who would dare to be so bold?Lotus Thirteen? Or had Justin Wesley arrived in Emerald City to make his move? No, it seemed too soon; he hadn't fully inherited the Wesley family yet.But if not them, then who? Matt Turner or Gerald White? He had certainly made quite a few enemies recently."Heh, such big words, Mr. Gray. Why don't we continue this conversation when you arrive? The last hotel on Sea
Chapter 376: Susan in Peril
No matter how Mary Martinez explained or pleaded, it had no effect. The old lady simply ignored her.It was as if she was saying, "Just wait and see in three days!"Aunt Diaz was alarmed. If the old lady were to cause such a commotion, what would become of Susan and Mary Martinez's reputations?Soon after, James Brown returned home with Susan. Upon hearing about the $100,000 allowance demand, they were stunned. Good heavens, they knew the old lady would be trouble."What... what should we do? Try to talk her out of it, or send her back home. If she keeps carrying on like this, we won't be able to live here anymore," James Brown said, rubbing his temples."Easy for you to say. Why don't you do it? I promise I'll support you, but I don't want to be labeled as unfilial," Mary Martinez retorted, her lips twisted in a grimace. She had already talked herself hoarse trying to reason with her mother.Seeing the situation, Jason furrowed his brow. If Susan was in a difficult position, he could
Chapter 375: An Exorbitant Allowance
"What do you understand? Listen carefully: from now on, whenever you see Gray divine physician, you must show the utmost respect. Never offend him, or even the Parker family won't be able to protect you!" Leonard Wood warned her gravely.Stephanie Parker, thoroughly frightened, nodded repeatedly...Meanwhile, Jason had returned home, where Old Mrs. Martinez was inevitably causing a scene again, making everyone uncomfortable. However, given her status, no one could say anything."A good-for-nothing loafer who's busier than my granddaughter. What's going on? Is everyone avoiding me? Do you all want this old woman to live out her days in loneliness?" Old Mrs. Martinez's voice dripped with sarcasm.Jason and Grace Diaz could only sigh inwardly as they served her tea, cut fruit, and attended to her every whim to avoid further complaints."Mom, what are you saying? I'm here to keep you company, aren't I? We don't need to pay any attention to that useless fellow. Out of sight, out of mind -
Chapter 374: More Powerful Than Lee the Divine Doctor
Stephanie Parker and the onlookers were struck dumb, their eyes wide and jaws hitting the floor in sheer disbelief.This seemingly ordinary individual had managed to make Uncle Wood bow his head. What was going on? What kind of background did he have? What was his story? Had the world gone mad?Even Kelly Harris, who knew of Jason's exceptional medical skills, was left speechless at the sight before her. She gaped at the nonchalant Jason, unable to comprehend the scale of his influence that commanded the reverence of hundreds.While others might not grasp the full significance, as a medical student, Kelly understood perfectly. These were the cream of the crop in the medical field, each capable of being the crown jewel of any major hospital.One person alone could sustain an entire hospital!Over a hundred such individuals - can you imagine the impact? It was as if half the medical world was trembling before him!"This... this..."As everyone stood in shock, Jason turned to Roger Cox,
Chapter 373: Universal Adoration
"As if! You can't even get in yourself, and you have the audacity to make such an offer? Have you no shame?" Kelly Harris rolled her eyes, clearly unconvinced.But Stephanie Parker just smirked. "Clearly, you don't know me well enough. My family, the Parkers, are part of the Medical Family. If I choose to reveal my identity, getting in there would be as easy as strolling through my own backyard. Many of the medical geniuses in there even know me personally.""Do you think this Chinese Medicine Conference could keep me out now? Well, do you believe me now?" she boasted.She had never revealed this information before. Even her admirers and followers were unaware of her prestigious background."You're from the Medical Family?" Jason was surprised, not expecting to encounter two members in one day.Kelly Harris was even more shocked. This was the first time she had heard about this. She never imagined that her insufferable rival was from such an esteemed background. No wonder Stephanie ha
