The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 70

"Phoebe, you're so discreet! You have never told us that your husband is so powerful."

"That's right. You married such a rich man and said that he was of a humble origin. Are you afraid that we'll steal your husband away?"

"I told you. Phoebe is the most beautiful girl in our class. How can she marry an ordinary person?"

"That's right..."

As soon as Phoebe came over, she was surrounded by a group of female classmates. They kept flattering her, which made Phoebe very confused. She didn't know what happened, "What are you all talking about? Why can't I understand?"

"You're still pretending. Are you afraid that we'll steal your husband away?"

"Yeah. Just now, your husband was so imposing that even Forrest had to respectfully call him Mr. Howard. That was awesome! Phoebe, what does your husband do? Why didn't you talk about him before?"

They all began to inquire about Tom's background.

Phoebe frowned. She was totally puzzled.

Soon, as all these female classmates explained to her and supplemented each other, Phoebe understood the ins and outs of the matter. She felt it incredible.

After four years of marriage, Phoebe was almost the one who knew Tom best. However, she didn't know how Tom made acquaintance with Forrest and earned Forrest's respect. Why did that sound unrealistic?

Phoebe was confused. Walking over, she pulled Tom aside and frowned, "What's going on?"

"What?" Tom blinked.

"Don't play dumb!" Phoebe pinched him, "Make it clear to me!"

Seeing that she was really a little angry, Tom did not dare to keep her in suspense. He smiled and said, "You know I saved Samuel before. Then I happened to meet Forrest once I met Samuel. He thought I was a relative of Samuel, so he was so respectful when he saw me just now."

"Really?" Phoebe was a little confused. She always felt that Tom was more mysterious than before as if he was hiding something from her.

Tom looked at Phoebe with all his eyes and said, "Of course it's true. Why do I lie to you? Besides, don't you know my background?"

Phoebe believed it. Indeed, she knew Tom's background very well. He was just a poor boy from the countryside.

That seemed to be the reason.

Phoebe didn't think much about it. She rolled her eyes at Tom and said angrily, "You're good at taking advantage of others' influence. If Forrest finds out that you're lying to him, he'll hate your guts."

"Huh, how dare he?"

"What did you say?"

"Nothing." Tom shook his head and pointed to Forrest, who was singing on the stage, "Listen to the song."

It had to be said that as a popular star, Forrest was indeed adet at singing. Many people took out their phones to take videos and post the video clips on their WhatsApp Moments to show off.

Feeling Tom's gaze, Forrest sang even more enthusiastically.

After singing a song, he made up his own mind and said loudly, "Next, I will sing a song called 'eternal meteor' to Mr. Howard and his wife. I wish them to live in harmony and mutual respect, grow old together, and love each other forever!"

All of a sudden, the spotlight fell on Phoebe and Tom. Everyone looked at them enviously, especially those female classmates. They were extremely jealous.

The crowd applauded enthusiastically.

Phoebe blushed all of a sudden, and her heart was beating fast.
