The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 200

Ordinary people didn't know about the family meeting of the Howards due to the wide gap. But for the upper class in H City and Phoenix , it was a big deal, and many people would pay attention to it.

In particular, those great restaurants in H City and Phoenix would contact the Howards early, hoping to make a big profit by contracting their family meeting.

This year, they did not choose any restaurant, but directly held in Wind Pavilion, which disappointed many restaurants and let them feel they missed a big deal. Everybody knew that the Howards had always been generous. The annual family meeting was held in a grand manner, which would make those restaurants earn at least ten million dollars.

But on second thoughts, their choice was reasonable. In H City and Phoenix , according to the level, there was no place comparable to Wind Pavilion. It was a super high-class club. Not everyone could afford it.

Early in the morning, people from the Howards had already gone to Wind Pavilion, waiting for Tom's arrival.

Wind Pavilion was the Howards's business, but they only had the freedom of Wind Pavilion but had no ownership, which meant people from the Howards could only come to Wind Pavilion free of charge, but they couldn't control Wind Pavilion's running or trade this place. Every year they could only get two-thirds of the profit-sharing, and the remaining one-third would be automatically deposited into another account. Members of the Howards were not very dissatisfied with this.

However, they could only obey. Anderson had set such a rule since the club was founded. It was written down and recorded with legal force. Even Samuel, the current head of the family, could not change the rule.

Over the years, that account had accumulated quite a lot of money. People from the Howards were extremely jealous but helpless.

No one knew when they would be able to control the money, because Anderson had already made a will and kept it at the most authoritative law firm in the country, assuming that it would be released only two years after his death. Till then the Howards would know what conditions to inherit Wind Pavilion and the huge sum of money in the will.

The Howards was a big family with many branches, added up to more than 200 people. They were now all in a room.

As the master of the family, Samuel was sitting at the head of the table in a domineering manner.

Owen sat on his right, Michael on the left, and the other people sat on both sides in line with distinct ranks.

At this moment, someone complained in a low voice, "Isn't Tom too arrogant? He didn't even arrive so far. He doesn't take our the Howards seriously."

His voice was not loud, but because it was quiet and the atmosphere was frighteningly depressing, his words clearly reached everyone's ears. When Samuel heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, obviously a little unhappy.

Indeed, today was the family meeting, the most important day. All the people were waiting here, but Tom was late and did not show up until now. This was a disgrace to them.

However, he did not say anything and kept waiting. Tom was holding more than 50 billion dollars in his hands so Samuel had to endure even if he was angry.

Owen's face was expressionless and his eyes were closed as if he had fallen asleep. Only those who observed carefully would find that he was not asleep, for his eyes were rolling around, but obviously awake.

Dylan, who was sitting next to Owen, could clearly feel Owen's aura, which was especially frightening. This made Dylan feel like he was riding a roller coaster. His body kept tense all the time, and he only dared to sit half of the chair.

Everyone saw that Samuel and Owen keep silent, and then someone complained, "That's right. Tom really goes too far. We are all his elders at least, and we let him come back to the family meeting. How dare him to be that arrogant!"
