MY SUPER SON IN LAW, VOLUME 2 - Season 3 Episode 63

The manager—Theodore Gillies—even made a welcoming gesture.

Finn Taylor stared at him, not backing down. “What are you guys up to?”

Finn Taylor had just spent ten billion dollars at their auction house, yet they weren’t letting him leave. Something was wrong, and he couldn’t help but have his suspicions.

“Don’t get us wrong, sir. My boss has no ill intentions. Because you’re such a good client, he’d like to get to know you.”

Finn Taylor wasn’t afraid of the boss of this auction house. It was just that he had to watch his behavior with his wife by his side.

Theodore Gillies was acute and immediately caught on. “This way please, Miss. Our boss would like to have a private conversation with your husband.”

Yvette Larson glanced at her husband, reminding in a very serious tone, “Stay safe.”

She then headed to another room.

As for Finn Taylor, he followed Theodore Gillies into the room the latter’s boss was in.

But very quickly, Theodore Gillies left.

As soon as Finn Taylor walked in, Liam Gillies got up on his feet. “Hello, please take a seat. Let me introduce myself. My name is Liam Gillies—I’m the head of Cupid Island’s Gillies family.”

Finn Taylor nodded but didn’t shake the other’s hand.

“Mr. Taylor, you were so decisive and generous earlier. You must have a good family background.” Liam Gillies poured the other a cup of tea before trying to find out about Finn Taylor’s background.

“What are you trying to say?” Finn Taylor cut straight to the chase.

“Mr. Taylor, you offended Terry Money earlier, and I’m afraid that you’ll run into some trouble on Cupid Island. Of course, if you’re willing to be friends with me, I’ll definitely be able to help you solve this problem.”

Finn Taylor smiled. “Friends? Let’s wait for you to expand your business to Chicago before we talk about that.”

Someone who could fork out ten billion at once—for a necklace, no less—had to have a powerful family backing him.

The only reason Liam Gillies wanted to meet Finn Taylor was to strike up a relationship with a family like that. However, he knew nothing about which family Finn Taylor was from.

Now that the latter had mentioned ‘Chicago,’ Liam Gillies finally had some clue.

‘Chicago, the Taylor family.’ His eyes widened all of a sudden. ‘There’s only one family in Chicago that is worthy of being called the Taylor family of Chicago—the Taylor family of Peregrine Hall!’

“Peregrine?” Liam Gillies asked hesitantly.

What he got in reply was Finn Taylor’s nod.

‘A nod! He nodded! That means he’s really from Peregrine Hall!’

“Sir, I won’t accept your ten billion. Please take it as a gift to the Taylor family.”

The Gillies family was just an ordinary family on Cupid Island that seemingly ranked second. But outside of Cupid Island, they had no standing at all.

However, if they could get on the good side of the Taylor family and become part of Peregrine Hall, everything would be different!

By now, Liam Gillies was no longer thinking about ten billion—but even more!

“Liam Gillies, I hate people who take advantage of others. Since I’ve already offered you this ten billion dollars, I’ll definitely give it to you. However, I want you to resolve that matter with the Money family.” Finn Taylor naturally wasn’t fearful of the Money family. They posed no threat to him.

But if he were to let the Money family do as they pleased, he was worried that his wife would be implicated.

Understanding his intentions, Liam Gillies nodded at once.

As Finn Taylor and Yvette Larson left the auction house, the latter took with her several packs of snacks.

To be honest, the past few days had been downright exhausting. Seeing the snacks in the lounge, Yvette Larson naturally didn’t want to miss out on them and simply took them all with her.

…

No sooner had Finn Taylor left than Liam Gillies received a call—one from Chicago.

He was dumbfounded. ‘Chicago? Could it be from the Taylor family?’

He picked up the call, his hands trembling. “May I know who you are?”

“Gremlin from Peregrine Hall!”

‘I was right!’ Emotions surged within his heart, yet he didn’t understand how Finn Taylor could be that fast. ‘I just finished speaking to him, and Peregrine Hall is looking for me right away!’

“Hello, Sir Gremlin!”

“Did that piece of trash spend ten billion dollars at your auction house?”

‘Huh? What’s going on? Piece of trash? Was it not Finn Taylor who got this person from Peregrine Hall to contact me?’

“Yes, someone did spend ten billion here.” Liam Gillies didn’t dare to repeat the phrase ‘piece of trash.’

“Hehe, I heard that he offended the Money family at the auction house. I’m sure the Money family won’t let him leave the island alive. He must’ve gone to ask for your help because you’re the second-most powerful family on the island. Of course, he might even have used the Taylor family or Peregrine Hall’s name. Unfortunately, he’s not a core member of either. Both the Taylor family and Peregrine Hall belong to Donovan Taylor. It’d be better for that piece of trash to just die on Cupid Island. Remember: If you kill him, I’ll make sure that your family ranks among the top ten families in Peregrine Hall.”

With that, the call ended.

Liam Gillies was thrown into turmoil. ‘It seems like things are different from what I thought. Finn Taylor is indeed from the Taylor family, but it looks like he doesn’t hold a high position. That’s why someone’s out to kill him. Who should I choose to follow then? I might be able to enter Peregrine Hall in the future if I follow Finn Taylor, but that means that I’ll definitely offend the Money family now. I’d also have to wait for Finn Taylor to cement his position in the Taylor family before I’d get to join Peregrine Hall.’

‘But if I follow Gremlin, I just need to make use of the Money family to kill Finn Taylor. Then, I’ll enjoy benefits I’d never even dreamed about!’

Eventually, Liam Gillies made up his mind—he was going to follow Gremlin.

…

At the same time, Finn Taylor and Yvette Larson had arrived at the hotel.

Finn Taylor immediately started packing up their things.

“Finn, why are you packing? Are we going back?”

“No, we’re going somewhere else.” He was almost done packing.

Just as the couple opened the door and was about to leave, they bumped into Jamie Little.

Finn Taylor looked at Jamie Little and asked, “Do you know Wampus?”

“Hunter Sullivan?”

Finn Taylor nodded. ‘I can trust Jamie Little. If Hunter Sullivan has told her about his identity as Wampus, she can’t be an enemy.’

“Let’s go.”

Still in a state of confusion, Jamie Little followed behind Finn Taylor.

With the two women, Finn Taylor drove to a dense forest in a secluded part of Cupid Island. There stood a wooden hut.

“Stay here for a few days. I need to resolve some matters.”

Yvette Larson’s heart hurt when she heard those words. She knew that her husband had offended the Money family for her sake and was going to resolve that issue alone!
