Even Kaylie looked at Tom in surprise.
Although she was born into a rich family and owned several sports cars, a hundred million dollars was a large sum of money for her.
It was only at her father's level that could easily invest a hundred million dollars.
Tom was about her age, that young. How could he invest a hundred million dollars in a company? The point was, Tom was the uxorilocal son-in-law of the Scotts. Everyone said he was poor and ignored in the Scotts. How could he own a hundred million dollars?
This was a very unusual thing!
Charles was the most shocked one among everyone here. He was completely confused now. His mind was in a mess and it couldn't work. An uxorilocal son-in-law like Tom was even hard to find a job. He now had a hundred million dollars? Wasn't this a fantasy?
Tom also had a headache. He knew that Phoebe wouldn't fall for it, but he didn't expect Phoebe to tell Charles about it. It wasn't Phoebe's way of doing things.
It seemed that Phoebe was still angry with him. What she said just now was obviously filled with resentment.
Tom was right. Phoebe was indeed in a bad mood. She went to the company today. Although everything was back on track and she had unprecedented power, she still had some unhappiness with the people from the Scotts during the meeting. She had to take advantage of her position as chairwoman, and the elite team sent by Elliot to face them down.
Of course, all these didn't bother her so much. What really annoyed her was that Tom knew the chairman of ZQ Inc. According to her analysis, it implied that the first two times that the chairman of ZQ Inc saved her was not because of liking her, but because of Tom, which really made her feel very disappointed, sad, and hurt. Her heart felt empty!
Charles's call made her even more intense.
In fact, why she did not doubt Charles's words was because she now knew that Tom was rich and could get any woman he liked. This made her even more unhappy and even feel aggrieved.
She was still angry, but she still helped Tom to humiliate Charles.
Because she owed Tom more than one favor, even a great one. Regardless of the credence of Charles's words, even if Tom was really having an affair, she could only bear it. Because she had never fulfilled her responsibilities and obligations as his wife...
So now she was in a very complicated mood. One was about the chairman of ZQ Inc, the other was Tom, but she never had the thought that the chairman of ZQ Inc and Tom was actually the same person.
Tom did not know that Phoebe was in such a complicated mood. He said to Charles now, "What other tricks do you have? Do it now. Otherwise, when I start, you will have no chance to fight back."
Charles was shocked. He opened his mouth wide and looked at Tom as if he had seen a ghost. "You really invested 100 million dollars in the SK Company? It's impossible. How could you have so much money? You're just an uxorilocal son-in-law."
The other people around also had the same question.
Tom wouldn't answer him. Instead, he took out his phone and called Elliot. "Is the Audi store in the downtown yours?"
"Yes, Mr. Howard, what can I do for you?"
