MY SUPER SON IN LAW, VOLUME 3 - Season 4 Episode 77

For some reason, Sarah Eaton felt that something was wrong. ‘Won’t I still have the car then? The difference is just that this would be for the short-term. Who knows how short that will be? But Finn has already said that he’ll take the car back once he returns. However, the last time I saw him was more than a decade ago. Do you mean this car will be mine for more than ten years?’

“Timothy, I really can’t take your car.”

“Who’s asking you to take it from me? I’m just asking you for a favor. Aren’t you going to help me out, or do you not want to spend money on gas? Alright, I’ll give you 1,500 dollars. It should be enough. If it isn’t enough, you can ask me for more once I’m back.”

Sarah Eaton grew even more confused. ‘We were only talking about the car earlier. Why are we talking about money too? Is he going to add on more things if we continue with this conversation? I can’t let that happen; I can’t take anything from him. Otherwise, he’ll think I’m greedy.’

“Stop it. I’ll help you drive the car around, will that do? But take your money back. Otherwise, we can’t be friends.”

Given his childhood friend’s personality, Finn Taylor had already expected her to refuse his money. Without saying a thing, he took the stack of cash back.

“I’m done eating—let’s go. I don’t know the place well, so why don’t you drive?” By the time he finished his sentence, he was already in the passenger seat.

‘Er…’ Left with no other choice, Sarah Eaton could only get into the driver’s seat.

Once she fastened her seatbelt, she ignited the engine.

Luxury cars were really different from ordinary ones. The car started smoothly, and Sarah Eaton could feel the difference at once.

Because Sarah Eaton’s best friends were well-to-do, they had chosen to meet at a five-star hotel in Chicago.

This put pressure on Sarah Eaton because everyone cared about their own appearances. But since her best friends had already suggested going there, she couldn’t possibly refuse by saying that she didn’t have enough money for it.

Her heart ached every time she met her friends for a gathering.

No matter how careful she was in front of her friends, her friends never spared a thought for her. They all felt that Sarah Eaton was earning a measly pay and would be better off starting her own business. However, the latter couldn’t even do so because she wasn’t capable enough.

Her friends had never thought about what would happen if she were to fail. It was fine for some to fail since they had rich parents supporting them, but not Sarah Eaton.

She had grown up without her father, and her family had barely gotten by with her mother’s earnings from the snack store.

Even with just over a thousand dollars a month, she was satisfied. There was nothing more she’d ask for.

…

At the hotel, Sarah Eaton’s best friends had already arrived.

One of the ladies glanced at her watch. “Why isn’t Sarah here yet? We’ve been waiting for half an hour.”

The girl beside her smirked. “Why’s that strange? She’s probably still waiting for the bus.”

“Sigh, why doesn’t Sarah just try to start her own business? Remember the business deal that I offered her last time? I handed it to one of my subordinates, and she’s already made 30,000 dollars!”

“That’s right. Not only is she a coward, but she’s also useless. I guess she’s fated to be stuck working jobs that pay 1,000 dollars at the very most.”

“Sigh, I could probably make more in a year than she could in her entire life. Why doesn’t she just start a business with me?”

“Why do you think she’s done so badly?”

“Yes, weren’t her results the best amongst us while we were still in school?”

“Results? Those are useless. People in society don’t care about your educational qualifications. They care only about your abilities and how you look.”

Just as they were in the middle of their discussion, the door to the room was pushed open.

Sarah Eaton then walked in. “I’m sorry I’m late. You must’ve waited for a long time.”

One of her friends pointed at her watch. “Sarah, we’ve been waiting for 15 minutes and 20 seconds. I could’ve earned a few hundred dollars if I was handling a business deal.”

The moment she opened her mouth, she talked about money.

That irked Finn Taylor. ‘They don’t seem very friendly.’

“Why are you here?” Finn Taylor hadn’t gotten the chance to take a look at the women in the room before someone pointed him out. She had an exaggerated expression on her face as she glanced at the man.

The latter looked in the direction of the voice, realizing that it was Snowy whom he had met on the plane.

Finn Taylor didn’t reply to her. After all, the two of them had only had a chance encounter previously.

They weren’t close.

Seeing that Finn Taylor ignored her, Snowy fumed.

“You know them?” Sarah Eaton turned around and asked curiously.

“We met on the plane.”

“Oh… Oh!”

‘Oh right, Snowy is a flight attendant. I guess Finn could’ve met her on the plane.’ Sarah Eaton then walked in with her friend.

The pair sat beside Snowy, who was the closest to Sarah Eaton amongst the best friends. After all, the others were all business owners. Sarah Eaton and Snowy were the only two employees.

Of course, while they were both employees, Snowy was doing much better than the former.

“Sarah, did you take the bus here?”

“No, not this time.”

“No? Did you think that you’d be able to trick us? Forget it. Why don’t you introduce him? Is he your boyfriend?”

“No, no. He’s my childhood friend.”

“Childhood friend? Oh, are you chasing Sarah? You’ll have to work hard to win us over then.”

Snowy quickly interrupted them. “Stop teasing them. He has a girlfriend.”

‘A girlfriend?’ Sarah Eaton was taken aback. ‘I don’t even know about it, so why does Snowy know about it? Finn said that they only met on the plane, so they can’t be that close.’

Finn Taylor was equally puzzled. ‘She’s just a flight attendant, so she can’t possibly know about my relationship with Yvette.’

“Miss Snowy, how do you know if I have a girlfriend?”
