The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine-Chapter 369 - Kicking Him to the Curb

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Melanie Taylor had never seen anything as shameless as the woman in front of her.

‘Linda James, look at where you’re living—Number One Pacific Heights. Your family never would’ve gotten the chance to stay in such a luxurious house even if you were to work for ten entire lifetimes. It’s only because of Finn Taylor that you’re living there. Forget about the divorce, but how could you kick him to the curb and backstab him now?’?Melanie Taylor couldn’t help but criticize the other woman inwardly, but that had nothing to do with her.

They were a family. The more viciously they fought, the happier she would be.

“Alright, contact me once you have news. I’ll definitely reward you with a satisfactory sum.”

Linda James bowed repeatedly, thanking the younger lady profusely.

“Linda James, I heard that your daughter is the prettiest woman in all of San Francisco.”

“That’s true.” Linda James was exceptionally confident. “Just take a look at her mother.”

She then took out her daughter’s photo. “My daughter is beautiful, isn’t she?”

“Yes, she is. Have you ever thought about finding your daughter a husband? She can’t remain a widow for life.”

“My daughter isn’t a widow. Oh, you’re saying that Finn Taylor is dead to us. Yes, yes. My daughter is a widow. Actually, I’ve been thinking of finding a husband for her, but she won’t take a fancy to just any average man.”

“Come on. I’ll introduce you to an outstanding one then.”

“Really? Who is that?”

Melanie Taylor patted her brother on the shoulder. “My younger brother—Levi Taylor. What do you think?”

Linda James had been rather excited just moments earlier because someone recommended by Melanie Taylor would definitely be of a certain caliber.

However, she was discouraged after hearing Levi Taylor’s name.?‘How could this young man possibly fall for my daughter?’?

“Don’t joke around with me, Ms. Taylor.”

“Who’s joking around? My brother has taken a fancy to your daughter. If you agree to it, you can invite him back for dinner for them to get to know each other.”

Linda James was still in disbelief.?‘Well, it’s true that Yvette is pretty. Has he really fallen for her?’

“What? Are you not satisfied with me, Linda James?”

“Of course, I am. I’ll go and arrange it at once. You must come for dinner tonight then!” Linda James walked away, elated.

Watching Linda James’s departing figure, the siblings could only sneer. “She’s such a vicious woman. I can’t believe she gave her daughter and son-in-law away.”

“Yes, she is.”

…

Finn Taylor immediately returned home once he gave Howard Dahl his instructions. He then knocked on Michelle Yeller’s door.

The moment the latter saw him, she rushed into his arms. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

“Come back.” Josie Meyer dragged her friend away. “Timothy Taylor, did you arrange for us to be kidnapped so that you could save a damsel in distress? Michelle Yeller didn’t catch that, but did you think that I wouldn’t realize?”

Finn Taylor couldn’t help but admire Josie Meyer for her stupidity.?‘It’s a pity that she isn’t a writer.’

“Do you really not know why you guys were kidnapped? Besides, I only saved you because Michelle sent a message to me. If I were the one who planned this, how would I resolve this if Michelle didn’t send me a message?”

Michelle Yeller nodded. “That’s right. Besides, wasn’t it Quince Larson who kidnapped us?”

“Quince Larson?” Finn Taylor was stumped.?‘What does this have to do with Quince Larson?’

“What’s going on, Michelle?”

Josie Meyer harrumphed. “Does it have anything to do with you? Do you mean that you’re going to take revenge on Quince Larson for us?” 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

She then slammed the door shut.

Finn Taylor shrugged.?‘I do want to interfere in the matter, but I have to understand what happened in the first place. I’m in no place to do anything if I know nothing.’?

“Sigh.” Finn Taylor felt a little helpless.

He was here to bid the young girl farewell because he was making a trip to Chicago. Since South-East Asia’s Taylor family was now in the picture, he had to consolidate his power, and that meant that Benjamin Taylor and his sons could scram from the family.

Unfortunately, he hadn’t gotten the chance to say what he wanted before Josie Meyer slammed the door shut.

However, that didn’t matter.

‘We’re just neighbors. By the time I come back, everything will be different. Nothing will matter then.’?

Finn Taylor returned home to pack his bags before making his way to the airport. This time, he was headed back alone and had made a call to his mother in advance, asking if she was willing to help him consolidate his power in the Taylor family.

Although she said that she would try her best to help him, Finn Taylor couldn’t be sure if his mother was telling the truth. However, he could tell that their relationship had improved ever since he had saved her.

On the plane, Finn Taylor couldn’t help but smile bitterly.?‘I have been too soft-hearted and chose to forgive her, but that doesn’t matter. There is no way I could’ve simply severed ties with my mother.’?

Besides, Finn Taylor knew that his mother had always been carrying out orders from others. She had never had the final say.

With nothing else to do, Finn Taylor engrossed himself in a book. But just then, a young child of about three to four years old started sobbing.

Her mother was in an awkward position and tried to comfort her, but nothing seemed to work. The child continued sobbing her heart out.

Eventually, two burly men walked up to her. “You idiot, can you shut up? Otherwise, I’ll throw you out of here.”

Not only did that not stop the child from crying, but it even frightened the young girl even more.

Finn Taylor placed his book down and said, “She’s just a child. You can just wear headphones.”

The two men waved their fingers at Finn Taylor. “This has nothing to do with you, brat. You better shut up.”

Finn Taylor sneered. “You said that the child is making too much noise and is affecting you.. You’re making too much noise, and you’re the ones annoying me.”
