The Amazing son in law Chapter 199
“`html
At this moment in the Wilson family villa,
Lady Wilson and Christopher were anxiously awaiting Harold’s return with news of his successful takeover of the villa at Thompson First.
However, their hopes were shattered when they learned that Harold had been seriously injured and arrested by the police, who were holding him on charges of breaking into private property and causing intentional harm to others!
This news ignited Lady Wilson’s fury!
“This must be Claire and her family’s doing again! This is absolutely unacceptable!” Lady Wilson exclaimed angrily.
Christopher, filled with anxiety, began to panic upon hearing of his son’s injuries. “Mom! Jacob is being far too arrogant! You need to seek justice for Harold! After all, Jacob has always listened to you. If you tell him to stop whatever he’s doing, he will definitely heed your words and follow your instructions.”
“Of course!” Lady Wilson snorted in defiance, adding, “So what if that family managed to keep the villa? It’s just an empty shell! They don’t have any money or power in Aurous Hill. How could they possibly stand up to us? I not only plan to reclaim the villa, but I will also ensure they pay dearly for their actions today!”
As they discussed this, someone entered with a message. “Lady Wilson, Zeke White, head of the White family, has just arrived.”
“Oh?” Lady Wilson said, surprised. “Please let him in right away. I was just about to confront him about why he decided to give that villa to Charlie and his family! After all, he is our future in-law; how could he do this to us?”
As she finished speaking, Zeke arrived at the front door with his nephew, Gerald.
They had actually come with the intention of calling off the engagement.
Gerald had long grown weary of Wendy, feeling that her family was simply not on par with the White family.
So, when his uncle suggested annulling the engagement, Gerald readily agreed without hesitation.
Seeing them at the door, Lady Wilson hurriedly greeted them, “Oh, my in-laws are here! Why didn’t you notify me about your visit?”
Zeke sneered, speaking coldly, “Lady Wilson, you truly are remarkable!”
Confused by his words, Lady Wilson managed an awkward smile and asked, “What do you mean by that?”
Then she turned to Christopher and said, “It’s not every day Mr. White visits us personally. Why don’t you invite him in for a seat? He is your future in-law, after all!”
“I won’t be coming in,” Zeke replied, waving his hand dismissively. “I’m here primarily to discuss the marriage arrangements between our families.”
Lady Wilson quickly responded, “Mr. White, please rest assured that we will host a grand wedding banquet and won’t embarrass you in any way. Let us know if you have any special requests.”
Zeke replied coldly, “I’ll get straight to the point. The White family has given this matter considerable thought, and we believe there are too many differences between our families. Therefore, I am here to inform you that we wish to annul the engagement between Gerald and Wendy.”
“What?! You mean you want to cancel their engagement?!” Lady Wilson and Christopher gasped in shock.
Wendy was equally stunned and exclaimed, “Why?! Gerald and I have already booked our wedding banquet!”
Turning to Gerald, she asked, “Gerald, what is happening?”
Gerald shrugged, saying, “This decision was made by the White family. There’s nothing I can do about it.”
The Wilson family felt as if the ground was crumbling beneath them!
This engagement had been arranged a long time ago, and they had meticulously prepared for the wedding, already informing friends and family since the wedding was scheduled for next month.
Now, the White family wanted to annul the engagement?
Lady Wilson had been eagerly anticipating this marriage, hoping to leverage the White family connections to bolster the Wilson Group.
Now that this engagement was in jeopardy, wouldn’t all her efforts have been in vain?
