The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 397

He had never felt so bad before!

From the moment he saw Isabella, he had made up his mind to get Isabella and he had absolute confidence in himself.

But unexpectedly, a man suddenly appeared snatched away the woman he liked. How cruel to him!

He couldn't stand it.

He stared at Tom, wishing he could punch Tom to death.

But he knew he couldn't do that. First of all, they were at Wade's birthday party. If he made a scene, he was embarrassing Wade, who was very powerful. If he offended Wade, he would be terribly punished and his entire family would be implicated, so he would never dare to do anything here.

But that didn't mean he would give in!

He smiled again and said to Tom, "Mr. Howard, right? I'm Coen, the chairman of Sally Group is my father. I wonder what's your job?"

Tom could tell what Coen was thinking about immediately. But he was here to do something important today, and he didn't want to waste time with him. Tom said directly to Isabella, "Isabella, I have something else to do. I can't accompany you. Have a nice time with your friends."

He was about to take his hand out and leave.

However, Coen thought he did that because he felt inferior. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise and he felt proud.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Isabella felt reluctant. She grabbed his arm and refused to let go of him. She said, "Where are you going? Let me go with you."

Seeing Tom looking at her in surprise, Isabella blushed and explained, "Don't misunderstand. My grandfather has asked me to get along with you."

So that was the case...

Tom smiled and said, "Then you don't have to do that from now on. Your grandfather has already made a decision to draw a line with me."

Isabella naturally knew about this, but she didn't understand her grandpa's decision. Was their the Paynes so afraid of May?

"I haven't thanked you for helping me last time." Isabella looked at Tom and said.

"What happened last time was accidental, and I'm not helping you. Well, you'd better keep a distance from me, or it's not good for you." Tom said seriously.

The topic of their conversation changed so fast that no one else understood.

Realizing Tom didn't want to be close to her, Isabella became angry.' I'm the campus belle and the miss of the Paynes. I took the initiative, but why do you keep estranged from me? Well, the more you want to distance yourself from me, the more I will get close to you.' She thought.

So Isabella took Tom's arm again and said coquettishly, "Brother Tom, just be with me. I haven't talked to you for a long time."

Hiss...

When Tom heard Isabella spoke to her in a coquettish way, he could not help but gasp. Was she still the Miss Payne he knew?

And the other female classmates were also quite shocked. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have thought that something wrong had happened to Isabella! How could she be so coquettish?

Unbelievable.

And Coen and the boys were even more envious, jealous, and angry.

Tom thought for a while. Anyway, he had nowhere to go now. He might as well stay and eat with young students like Isabella, waiting for Wade and May.

So he said, "Okay, then I'll talk to you."

When Isabella heard Tom's promise, she was in a good mood and smiled brightly.

After sitting down, Coen couldn't wait to say, "Isabella, you haven't told us what Tom does and what school did he graduate from?"

Just as Isabella was about to speak, Tom said, "I'm an unemployed bum. I can't compare to you rich children."

Tom was right about that. He had already handed over the management rights of all his three companies, and now he only waited for dividends. It was right to say he was unemployed.

Sure enough, when they heard that Tom was unemployed, they immediately showed disdain.

Isabella was stunned. She did not expect Tom to answer like this, but she did not expose Tom. Instead, it was the disdain of Coen and others that made her feel particularly uncomfortable.

Another boy said, "By the way, I think you're not young anymore. I wonder which famous school you graduated from?"

They were all top students in a finance university and felt proud of their school.

Tom smiled again and said, "I didn't go to college."

"Hahaha... Really? Is there anyone who hasn't gone to college in today's society?"

"Why, is it embarrassing not to go to college?" Tom narrowed his eyes and asked.

The boy waved his hand and said, "It's quite embarrassing for us, but it should be normal for you. After all, you are not a young student but still unemployed. Going to college is nothing you can imagine."

The other boys laughed at him as well, and their expressions were especially disdainful.

Isabella's face became even colder. She especially hated the way they laughed at Tom. They just relied on their families and enjoyed their life. They were no match for Tom at all!

"Enough!" Isabella couldn't help but stare at them, "Tom is not unemployed. He's just joking. He's the chairman of that powerful ZQ Media. In addition, there are two other companies, Tengyue Advertising and Shield Security Company. He's much more powerful than your elders. How dare you brats mock him? Where did you get the courage?"

Isabella was rarely so angry. She couldn't bear to see their disdain anymore.

They were stunned for a moment, then Coen burst out laughing. "Isabella, are you kidding? Can he be the chairman of the ZQ Media? You're treating us like a fool."

"That's right! He's just a delivery guy with a cheap outfit. Haha."

"Well, Isabella must have been deceived by this guy."

None of them believed her words, but they all laughed at him.

Even the girls now agreed that Isabella had been fooled by Tom. As long as they were sane, they would not believe that Tom was the big boss. Wasn't that a joke?

A female classmate pulled Isabella aside and said worriedly, "Isabella, what's wrong with you? You were deceived by this guy."

"Yes, Isabella, I think you should be careful. There are so many liars nowadays. They may cheat you, such a beautiful girl, out of money and sex."

"It seems that Heath's betrayal has affected you so much and now you were deceived. Alas..."

Isabella said, "What are you talking about? What I just said is true. Tom is really the chairman of ZQ Media. He is very rich."

When the girls saw Isabella's confident look, they were even more worried that Isabella had been brainwashed.

Isabella still wanted to explain, but when she saw Tom's indifferent face, which showed that he didn't seem to care at all about being laughed at. She was discouraged and didn't want to help him explain.

At this time, they were talking about Hans, the birthday boy tonight. A boy asked Coen, "Coen, I heard that you and Mr. Hall are good friends. Can you introduce us?"

When the girls heard this, they immediately ignored Tom, who was a nobody.

Coen said proudly, "Then you're really asking the right person. Mr. Hall and I have been good friends for many years. As long as I introduce you to Mr. Hall, you can be close to him, but if you want to get along with Mr. Hall, it's up to you."

After hearing this, they were all excited.

When Tom heard this, he had a strange expression on his face. Then he smiled at Coen and said, "Coen, since you and Wade are friends, I wonder if you can introduce me as well."
