MY SUPER SON IN LAW, VOLUME 2 - Season 3 Episode 47

Quince Larson was slightly stunned. ‘Donovan Taylor? Who’s that?’

Seemingly realizing the confusion on Quince Larson’s expression, Gremlin went on with an explanation. “Donovan Taylor is Finn Taylor’s twin brother, but they’re as different as day and night. Finn Taylor is a jinx who’s here to ruin the Taylor family, while Donovan Taylor is different. He’s a saint who will bring the family to glory. Your owner has run into some trouble, so he couldn’t show up today. I now need your help to defeat Finn Taylor on his behalf. I’ll give you some money. Tell me—how much do you need?”

Quince Larson hadn’t really understood what Gremlin said earlier, but he surely understood the last part of the latter’s speech. ‘He’s giving me money! That’s great!’

“I-I need a billion dollars.” This was what he had requested for Yvette Larson’s ransom.

‘Since the Taylor family is so rich, a billion dollars probably doesn’t mean much to them.’ Yet, he couldn’t help but feel frantic after voicing out his thoughts.

“A billion? You fool, I’ll give you ten billion.”

Gremlin’s words stupefied Quince Larson. ‘Ten billion? I’ve never even seen so much money in my life!’

“I don’t expect you to defeat Finn Taylor even after giving you ten billion, but it shouldn’t be hard for you to slow him down with this money.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll be like a dog and take a huge bite out of him!” With that, Quince Larson even barked like a dog. “Woof! Woof! Woof!”

…

The moment Finn Taylor walked out of that abandoned warehouse, he received a phone call from Chloe Yeats. She informed him that she had found a worker from Mars, who had agreed to lock two people up in Mars.

Finn Taylor was overwhelmed with emotions as he heard so because he had his suspicions of his grandpa being in Mars.

That was why he was sending Phoenix and Triton to Mars to retrieve his grandpa.

How could Finn Taylor not get excited after receiving news about Mars? “Alright. I’ll go to San Diego right away.”

The Larson family would be busy organizing Joseph Larson’s funeral for the next few days.

Since Finn Taylor wasn’t going to care about it, he would naturally be free. As such, he headed to Los Angeles with Patrick Taylor and Felix Taylor to look for Chloe Yeats.

“Can you bring me to meet that worker from Mars?”

“No, he wants me to bring those two people to a landfill outside Los Angeles. They’ll take them from there.”

Finn Taylor couldn’t help but feel disappointed. He had thought that he would be able to meet that worker from Mars at the very least. Then, he would have some news regarding his grandpa.

However, it seemed like things wouldn’t be going that smoothly.

“Don’t worry, Master Peregrine. Leave this to us. Grandpa saved our lives, so we’ll do our best to save him once we get to Mars.”

Finn Taylor had no doubts about the duo’s loyalty. He knew that the duo would even risk their lives to save his grandpa.

“You must be careful. I’ll remain outside and try my best to save all of you.” Finn Taylor wasn’t saying this for the sake of doing so—it was a promise to them.

Finn Taylor was ready to risk his own life for them too.

Grandpa was important to all three of them. Without him, they would’ve died a long time ago.

Based on their agreement, Chloe Yeats took Patrick Taylor and Felix Taylor to the landfill. Before that, she had asked Finn Taylor if they should place tracking or listening devices on the pair.

However, Finn Taylor rejected that suggestion at once. ‘Mars is way too mysterious. There has to be a good reason why nobody has even found out about the place over the years. We’d definitely be caught if we tried to use such underhanded methods. Then, all our plans of saving my grandpa would go to waste if we were to alert the enemy prematurely. All we can do is place our hopes on Felix Taylor and Patrick Taylor and hope they’ll be able to adapt swiftly.’

After completing her mission of sending the pair to the landfill, Chloe Yeats left. This was what they had agreed on.

The moment she returned, Finn Taylor asked, “Do you think their lives will be in danger?”

“What do you mean?”

“Since we haven’t been able to find Mars, do you think it’s possible that all those people we think are at Mars are already dead?”

Chloe Yeats shook her head. “That’s impossible. We couldn’t install listening or tracking devices, but we placed detectors in their hearts. We’ll know if they’re still alive. Since we could send people in, I’m sure others can do the same. If those people are dead, Mars would’ve been exposed a long time ago.”

‘That makes sense.’

Chloe Yeats then asked, “Do you want me to keep an eye on that landfill?”

“Absolutely not. We must follow their instructions. All we can do is hope that the two of them do their best.”

Chloe Yeats smiled bitterly, shaking her head helplessly. “You grandpa must be important to you.”

“He was the only one who treated me well.”

Chloe Yeats didn’t pursue the matter any further. She knew that Finn Taylor didn’t want to touch on the topic.

“I have something to attend to in San Francisco. I’m leaving.”

“Are you leaving so soon?”

“Yes. Joseph Larson is dead, so I need to go back in case the Larson family does something to Yvette.”

Badump!

Chloe Yeats felt her heart leap when she heard that. ‘Is it because of the sudden news of Joseph Larson’s death, or is it because Finn Taylor has only Yvette Larson in his heart?’

She shook her head, warning herself to know her limits. ‘I’ll never match up to Finn Taylor. I’ll have to take my love for him to the grave. He must never know of anything!’

Finn Taylor didn’t stay any longer and simply left. Just as he had expected, something had indeed happened in the Larson family.

Of course, it wasn’t because the Larson family dared to kick up a fuss. After witnessing what Finn Taylor was capable of, there was no way they’d dare to do anything.

This time, it was the various families of San Francisco that were stirring up trouble for the Larson family—the old men from the Chess Association.

They had gone to the Old Master’s funeral on purpose, demanding that they be allowed to cease all collaborations with the Larson family. They even declared that anyone who sided with the Larson family was their enemy.

This shocked the entire San Francisco. ‘What kind of grudge do they have between them? Why do they have to go so far?’

The Larson family cared most about their reputation and appearance, and this meant that the Old Master’s funeral had to be extravagant beyond measure.

And inviting all the renowned figures in San Francisco was the way to prove to others just how powerful the family was.
