The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 107

In the private room, there was absolute silence, and everyone looked at him.

Rory trembled a few times. He wanted to cry.

"Impossible! You must be wrong! How could it be blue and white porcelain from Ming Dynasty with this color?" In a hurry, Rory's mind was in a mess and he pointed the spear at Cal.

Cal's face immediately turned serious when he heard this. "Rory, are you questioning my ability or my character?"

Rory felt Cal's unhappiness, and he realized that he had said something wrong. However, it was impossible for him to kneel down, kowtow and call Tom a hundred times grandpa!

Therefore, he would rather offend Cal than betray his dignity.

That must be a joke to make him knelt down for Tom. He would rather die if so.

So he snorted heavily and said, "I can't tell. As everyone knows, Tom is just the uxorialocal son-in-law of the Scotts and a poor boy from the countryside. For so many years, he couldn't even find a job. He would only stay at the Scotts to rely on his wife and do housework every day. Someone like him would receive the valuable Ming Dynasty's blue and white porcelain, which is absolutely impossible!"

He sounded reasonable, but now, no one believed him, because the person who made the judgement was Cal, famous for his integrity and excellent expertise in the antique field. How could such a person lie?

This time, Phoebe looked at Rory's stubborn look and felt sick.

Even James and Elizabeth's impression of him had dropped to the bottom. Rory was rich, but he was not a man of virtue.

Tom had expected this kind of situation long ago, and he was not surprised at all. "Rory, are you cheating? Remember, you just wrote it down. Do you want me to read it?"

Rory's face showed a ferocious expression. He violently snatched the paper from Tom's hand and tore it into pieces. "What did you say? Where is the chit?"

Tom was not angry. He sneered. "Admit it or not, Rory, you're such a piece of trash."

Rory's face was very bad. He wanted to struggle, but when he saw Phoebe's disgust and disdain, he felt extremely sad.

Even James and Elizabeth looked down on him now.

He was even more in a twisted mood. He glared at Tom and said, "It's not over!"

Then he turned around and ran away. He was in an embarrassing state. When he ran to the door, he bumped into the waiter who came in with the soup. Half a pot of boiled soup spilled on him, making him jump like a monkey and scream miserably.

Seeing this, Tom finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

After Rory left dejectedly, Elizabeth showed the expression of a money-grubber. She walked over and greedily touch the blue and white porcelain. "Wow, this is the blue and white porcelain from the Ming Dynasty worth tens of millions. That's great! It's mine from now on!"

Phoebe couldn't stand it any longer. She came over and pulled Elizabeth. "Mom, what are you talking about? It belongs to Tom. When did it become yours?"

Elizabeth looked back at Phoebe and said, "Tom's is mine. Without me, he couldn't have all these today? Everything he owns is mine! I'm going to be rich. This is a real antique! We've been poor for so long, and we're finally going to be rich."

Cal coughed. Elizabeth's thick skin made him uncomfortable.

James was also very thrilled. The real blue and white porcelain from the Ming Dynasty was of great value! If it was in his study, he would be proud. When he released the news, numerous people could pay him a visit.

"Mr. Hall, how much do you think this blue and white porcelain can cost?" Elizabeth asked with light in her eyes.

Cal said, "This is the blue and white porcelain of the early Ming Dynasty. The forging skill is extremely exquisite. Look at this pattern and material. It should be used in the palace. Its value is limitless!"

Elizabeth's eyes brightened even more. "Isn't that going to sell for a lot of money?"

Phoebe was also curious. She thought to herself that now the Scotts company was facing difficulties. If this antique could be sold at a high price, it could also help the family get through the difficulties. In this way, maybe there was no need to ask for funding.

Cal didn't like Elizabeth's idea of using money to measure the value of antiques, but out of professional ethics, he replied, "This kind of blue and white porcelain can sell for at least 25 million dollars."

"What?!"

Elizabeth's eyes widened and his breathing quickened!

Phoebe was equally stunned.

Tom was also stunned. He knew that this blue and white porcelain was genuine, but he didn't expect it to be so valuable. Forrest actually gave up so much money in order to please him? Was he that scary?

In fact, Tom really misunderstood Forrest. He got this blue and white porcelain from a fanatic female fan. It happened that fan's family was in the tomb raiding business. It was easy to get these antiques, so they didn't know that this blue and white porcelain, including Forrest. Otherwise, he would not have given it to Tom. It was 25 million!

"I AM BEING RICH, hahaha..."

Elizabeth immediately laughed.

Cal said directly that he would pay 28 million dollars for this blue and white porcelain.

Of course, he said this to Tom. After all, this blue and white porcelain belonged to Tom.

Elizabeth was unhappy on the spot. She said, "Mr. Hall, you're mistaken. If you want to buy this blue and white porcelain, you should also ask me! Why do you ask Tom?"

Seeing that Tom didn't say anything, Cal had no choice but to ask Elizabeth once again. Elizabeth floated on air. Twenty-eight million dollars. How heavy would it be if it was cash?

She was an expert in haggling. Seeing Cal bid 28 million so readily, she naturally knew that there was still room to raise the price and directly said 30 million.

Cal hesitated for a moment and agreed.

James didn't want to sell it. He wanted to show off in his study. Unfortunately, he had no voice in this family and was rejected by Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was extremely excited and said, "Deal. Thirty million is fine. You can transfer it to my card immediately. This blue and white porcelain is yours!"

Cal said, "Thirty million is a little too much. I can't afford so much money at the moment. Give me two days. I'll transfer it to you."

"Well, you have to hurry up, or I'll sell it to someone else!" Elizabeth said proudly with blue and white porcelain in his arms.

"Okay!" Cal nodded.

Elizabeth held the blue and white porcelain in her arms and was extremely excited. It was as if she was holding her own treasure. Without asking Tom's opinion, she took it directly.

However, at this moment, she suddenly had an itch under her armpit. She subconsciously reached out to scratch it, but unexpectedly, she was still holding blue and white porcelain in her hand. With a bang, she threw it directly on the ground and it was broken.
