Son In Law Madness novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 You Have No Right To Challenge Me

Everyone stared at Donald, especially Irene and Rebecca. Their eyes were filled with blatant curiosity.

“Donald, I didn’t know that you were so influential.” Irene leaned closer to Donald and wanted to hold the latter’s arm.

Donald took a step back wordlessly, avoiding her grasp.

The smile on Irene’s face froze.

On the other hand, Rebecca laughed girlishly. “Donald, you’re pretending to be weak to conceal your true power. You can even book the ninth floor with a mere phone call. That’s amazing!”

When Oliver heard them praise Donald, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

I should be the main character today. What’s the point of being wealthy and accomplished if I can’t boast about my wealth? I did everything I could to steal a cultural relic and sell it for a hundred million just so I could show off! I want everyone to be dazzled by my wealth. Why have things turned out like this?

“Perhaps I can explain,” Mark said.

He had a strong aura and tattoos were inked all over his head. At first glance, one could tell that he was not someone to be crossed with. When he spoke, everyone shut their mouths. They fell silent and looked at him simultaneously.

 

Mark explained in a deep voice, “Yesterday, Ms. Collins accidentally fell into the water when she was on an outing. Donald happened to walk past and saved her. Ms. Collins gave him a million as a token of appreciation and promised to fulfill a request of his that was within her power. Is that correct?”

When Mark finished speaking, his gaze sharpened, and a faint light shone in his pupils as he turned to look at Donald expressionlessly. Narrowing his eyes, a look of contempt appeared on his face.

All he did was save Ms. Collins yesterday. How dare he make demands? Furthermore, he even brought a bunch of annoying brats into the supreme ninth floor.

A cold smile appeared on his face. He lowered his head and a frosty gleam shone in his eyes as he contemplated getting rid of Donald when he had the chance to do so.

“Yes. You’re right.” Donald was still expressionless. That was his personality. He did not like to explain too much, let alone waste his time talking nonsense. After experiencing huge, life-changing events, he had no interest in such trivial matters. The sole reason he attended the gathering was out of consideration for Rafe’s feelings.

Everyone immediately understood what was going on.

So that’s how it is. He just happened to save Lana Collins, who has a net worth of more than twenty billion. To repay his kindness, she not only gave him a million but also promised to accede to a request of his. No wonder we can enter the ninth floor. Lana’s life and promise are too important. Entering the ninth floor once is nothing in comparison.

“I see. I thought that Donald has reinvented himself!” The gloomy look on Oliver’s face disappeared and was replaced with a smile.

“So, you’ve only saved Ms. Collins’ life. Why are you acting like it’s a big deal?” Irene instantly moved away from Donald with a look of disdain on her face.

“What? That’s it?” Rebecca frowned and walked away. Annoyance and disgust were evident on her face as she glanced at Donald.

“I see. This Donald is such a fool. Lana’s promise is so valuable. He could’ve requested an apartment or a car, but he used it to bring us to the ninth floor instead. He’s dumb.” Some of the classmates discussed in low voices.

“That’s right. If our roles were reversed, I’d request ten million from her. Yet, he used it just to show off.”

“Just so he can show off, he wasted a promise from Lana. What a stupid man.”

Everyone started discussing and looking at Donald with utter derision.

Mark smiled faintly and looked deeply at Donald. “Pretty impressive.”

His gaze was gloomy, and his tone was meaningful.

Donald narrowed his eyes and looked back at Mark. He suddenly laughed. “Are you threatening me?”

He’s just Lana’s lackey. It’s not like I can’t kill him.

Mark solemnly nodded. “Whatever. You can think of it like that.”
