The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 233: Despair
He was withdrawing funds? Damn it, was he insane? There would have been returns in a while!What's more, he even wanted compensation for losses? Was that in the contract? How did he not remember this?The meek secretary said at the side, "Final interpretive rights belong to Mr. Hill. Temporarily changing the person in charge does count as us breaching the contract.""Currently, in addition to repaying Mr. Hill the $1 billion principal, we also need to pay $130 million in breach penalties...""$130 million?!" Robert Brown shrieked, his heart seemed to stop for several seconds. It didn't seem like much compared to the $1 billion. Just a tiny fraction. But one had to know, much of that $1 billion had already been spent on various major projects, Raymond's investments, and more. Coming up with even $500 million would be difficult.Forget the principal. But that $130 million penalty was fatal. Without the investment, even selling off their entire Brown Family might not raise that much mon
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 234: The Only Way
But even as he thought this, his heart shuddered in fear. It was one thing after another, like the collapse of the world, flayed alive inch by inch as he slowly sank into the abyss.He was so anxious he felt his head would explode.This must be more of Jason and Susan's tricks!But Raymond Brown and his son stared furiously. "We agreed on a first investment of $100 million, but so far only $10 million has come through. I don't even see a shadow of the second and third investments. How am I supposed to do the project without money?""What's more, just now, Loyalty Group asked me to send over a batch of medicinal materials for inspection first. If it's late, it counts as me breaching contract, and I'll have to pay a tenfold penalty. Do you know how massive a sum that is? Sky-high!""Cut the crap. I'm asking you, where's the money? The agreed upon investments? Hurry up and transfer it over, quick!"He was truly anxious, fanning the flames. Although Loyalty Group requested an inspection,
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 235: Reinstatement
Old Brown also glared at Jason. "Where's my female pendant? Daring to covet even my belongings, I see you're truly tired of living!"But at his words, Jason disdainfully laughed and casually took out an antique pendant from his pocket. "Grandfather, you can eat randomly, but don't speak randomly. The pendant is yours? Where's the proof?""Bah! My word is the proof. Don't make me destroy you for daring to steal Grandfather's possession!" Alexander Brown threatened with bulging eyes.But just as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt an icy wind gusting behind him. Looking back, he discovered over a dozen burly security guards coldly watching them."Daring to cause trouble at Mr. Gray's residence? Do you believe I'll destroy you right this instant?" The patrol captain asserted arrogantly. Alexander Brown and the others were scared stiff, deferentially obeying.Seeing this, Old Brown's mind stirred. Hard tactics didn't work, so he had to try soft tactics, moving them with emotion and re
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 236: Apologize to Susan
"Jason, you're really pushing it, aren't you? That grandfather is allowing her reinstatement is already gracious and merciful. Yet you still dare overreach and demand an apology from him? Looks like you're asking for death. That will never happen.""Let me make this clear. Grandfather's word is law in the Brown family. Not just dismissing someone, even banishing a useless person from the Brown family, no one would dare say it's wrong!" Robert and the others bellowed in shock and fury.Not just them, even Mary and her husband were startled. They had thought it was merely talk, and had not imagined he would seriously demand an apology from old Brown. Madness! Who dared force old Brown's hand? Reinstatement was already a blessing, who would dare ask for more?Old Brown's expression also darkened, rage smoldering within. His forehead veins bulged and throbbed. This shameless, useless wimp!Never once had he apologized to his own descendants. Not in the past, nor would he ever in the futur
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 237: Lawrence's Past
Little did he know, Jason did not care at all about such things. All he did was for Susan's sake. "Return it to you? Impossible. However, if Susan will no longer encounter today's situation at the company, I may consider gifting it to you again.""As for when I'll gift it, that depends on Susan's mood. Also, if grandfather insists on dragging this out, I'm afraid Brown Group will go bankrupt..."His words instantly drained all color from the old man's face. He had almost forgotten about the massive crisis, all because of this useless fool's nonsense. Suddenly, Margaret Brown shrieked in terror, "Grandfather, this is bad! The company said Mr. Hill and some other partners have come to demand repayment. They said if it's not resolved, they'll make us use the entire Brown Group as collateral!""What? This...this absolutely cannot happen!" Scared pale, the old master grabbed his cane and scurried off as fast as his legs could carry him.Robert Brown and the others also screamed and rushed
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 238 School Bullying
Not having seen her for several days, Jason was quite fond of the little girl whom he regarded as a sister.Soon, Jason arrived at Emerald City Elementary just as school was letting out in the afternoon. The lively youthful energy was infectious, yet also chaotic with parents and caregivers blocking the school exits.Jason was truly massive in stature. In hindsight, he should not have readily agreed to Lawrence's request. The scene here was far too grandiose. With his fighting skills, he could barely squeeze through the crowd, and his car was parked several blocks away, leaving him shaking his head in exasperation. There was no other way. He could only stand by the side and wait. Batch after batch passed, but there was still no sign of Natalie."Hmm? Where's that girl?" Jason wondered suspiciously. Despite the bustling crowd, he was certain Natalie had not come out yet.By the time the crowd outside Emerald City Elementary thinned, Jason still did not see Natalie. Most people had alr
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 239: Don't Hit Me
Mark and the chubby boys were dumbfounded. That was Big Bro Yellow Hair, yet he got knocked out by a single slap."Who...who is that person?"At this moment, Natalie unexpectedly cried out in pleasant surprise and disbelief: "Mr. Gray, how come you're here?"She absolutely did not expect Jason to appear. She planned to stall for time until her father arrived, yet unexpectedly it was Mr. Gray instead. This was truly a pleasant surprise. "Silly girl, you really made me search for you. Didn't expect you to be so popular at school." Jason jested.Upon hearing that, Natalie's face immediately flushed red in embarrassment.Meanwhile, Yellow Hair struggled up, frightened out of his wits. He screamed: "You dare hit me? Just you wait, I'm getting my boys right now. You're dead meat!"Speaking so, he fled even faster than a rabbit.As for Mark and the others, they had long scattered away in fear. Even Big Bro Yellow Hair was no match for that guy. It seemed this Natalie really did have someon
The Rise of the Useless Son-in-Law Chapter 240: Nose Hit Again
His nasal bone had even cracked with a "ka-cha" sound."Ah...ahhh..."Yellow Hair screamed miserably, covering his nose which was in excruciating pain as he rolled on the ground. But he still could not escape Tiger's blows.He did not even understand why Tiger was hitting him?Behind them, the others were even more dumbfounded, their expressions changing dramatically in fright. Had Tiger lost his mind? Why was he attacking his own? And so ruthlessly too?"This... this...""Tiger, are you...alright? You hit the wrong person! The bastard making trouble with us is that one!"But at his words, Tiger instead turned his head and glared at them in shock. He angrily berated: "You fools, why aren't you quickly kneeling down to beg the big boss to spare you? Whoever dares make big boss angry today, I'll skin you alive when we get back!"After saying so, he immediately knelt on the ground again, kowtowing nonstop while shivering in fright.That punch just now felt so satisfying. He really had no

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
