The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 59

After a while, Duncan and his family couldn't stay any longer and left dejectedly.

They were supposed to stay for lunch, but the minister's call just now made them so embarrassed, especially Duncan. His was the most embarrassed one. Staying here for another second was a kind of torture!

He couldn't eat here at all, so he quickly found an excuse to slink away.

After they left, Tom couldn't help but laugh.

Phoebe had the same feeling.

Elizabeth said unhappily, "Is it funny? Although he was fired by ZQ Company, he was positive and ambitious at least. He was much better than you. You actually became a real estate agent! What a disgrace to my Scott Family!"

Tom was confused. Was it very embarrassing? He thought it was pretty good. At least he made money by working. He didn't steal or rob anything. He was better than those who were sneaking around, right?

"Mom, it's not embarrassing for you to be a real estate agent. I gain money with my own hands." Tom said unhappily.

Elizabeth said, "Oh, trash, how dare you retort? Now the real estate market is not good, so how much money can you gain in a month? It's a shame if you can't make money!"

Tom really didn't know what to say about Elizabeth's views, so he could only say nothing.

While Tom was cooking, Elizabeth pulled Phoebe aside and said with a gossipy expression, "So, the chairman of ZQ Company was really rich!"

As her daughter, Phoebe immediately what Elizabeth was up to. She said, "Mom, don't think about it. That chairman won't like me."

When she said this, she couldn't help but feel upset and frustrated.

"Maybe not." Elizabeth said, "Phoebe, you should have confidence in yourself. Look at you. You're so beautiful, much prettier than many celebrities. You have a good figure and you are well-educated with a good temperament. Men drool when they see you. That chairman is a man, so he will definitely like you too."

After hearing this, Phoebe had a glimmer of hope, but she immediately shook her head and said with a bitter smile, "It's useless. Brother Duncan had said, as a golden bachelor like him, there is no shortage of women around. As long as he needs it, numerous women would run to him. How would he pick me, an ordinary woman? Besides, as the chairman of Zijiong Film Company, his company has so many popular actresses. I have no chance."

Elizabeth peeked at Tom in the kitchen, seeing that he was not eavesdropping, and then she said in a louder voice, "No. I know the psychology of men very well. It's because that chairman is used to seeing those immodest women outside, so he will be interested in a virtuous young woman like you. Besides, he didn't touch you when you went to ZQ Company that day, yet he lent you 20 million dollars without having to write an IOU? This means that he must be interested in you!"
