The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine Chapter 34
Advertisement
Sean Fleming glanced at Finn Taylor and shook his head. 'This man is ridiculous.'
In the past, Seth Fleming had thought that the latter had to be a prominent figure. After all, he had been respected at the All Stars Hotel.
However, he had never expected him to be the infamous, good-for-nothing matrilocal son-in-law of San Francisco, Finn Taylor.
There was nothing he could do right.
It was humiliating for a man to live his life in this way.
"Yvette Larson, are you a fool, or are you just pretending to be one? Look around you. Where are you? It's the Fleming family's house. You can't blame me since you were the one who threw yourself into my arms. Piece of trash, you'd better scram. If you dare to stand in my way, I'll get someone to break all your bones!" Sean Fleming whistled, and immediately, four bodyguards appeared.
They rubbed their palms while staring at Finn Taylor, their gazes full of hostility.
Yvette Larson was afraid and shrank before her husband—she was scared stiff. 'I never should've been so impulsive to turn up here with only Finn Taylor. I regret even coming to the Fleming family's house. We should've invited Seth Fleming to a restaurant instead. Am I really going to lose my virginity here?'
"Oh, what's going on?" Just then, they heard an authoritative voice.
Seth Fleming turned and felt immense fear in his heart when he realized that he had a visitor.
This person was none other than the true head, Hunter Sullivan.
"Seth Fleming, don't you think that you've done me dirty by standing in the way of my collaboration with the Larson family?" said Hunter Sullivan as he walked into the room.
When he saw Sean Fleming trying to throw himself at Yvette Larson, he smiled. "Oh, who's this? I think I saw him on the news. I heard that he was stripped naked and hung on a tree. Seth Fleming, is he part of your family?"

Sean Fleming's face turned pale, and he didn't dare to respond. "Mr. Sullivan, he's my younger brother—Sean Fleming."
"Wow, he's young and handsome. He's even learned human art."
The most humiliating thing Sean Fleming had experienced in his entire life was having been stripped naked and hung on a tree that night.
His heart was full of grudges due to Hunter Sullivan bringing the matter up.
"What's wrong with you? How dare you mention that?"
"Beat him up!" With Sean Fleming's order, the four bodyguards rushed toward Hunter Sullivan.
Seth Fleming was so stunned by the sight that he shut his eyes. 'My brother has gotten himself into trouble—big trouble.'
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After throwing out only four moves, he returned to his original position as though nothing had happened. However, the four bodyguards from the Fleming family were crumpled on the ground in front of him.
"Sean Fleming! Kneel down and apologize to Mr. Sullivan!" Seth Fleming felt fear like he had never felt before. 'This is Hunter Sullivan, the head of New York's Sullivan family. Sean Fleming, is your brain dead? How could you do that to him?'
Unfortunately, Sean Fleming had been pampered growing up. Anyway, he would never get to inherit the company. As such, he had set his life goal on becoming a rich second-generation heir from a young age.
This was his family's turf. There was no need to be afraid of anyone.
"Why? Do you think that I'll be afraid of you just because they're here? You'd better know that you're in the Fleming family's house now." Sean Fleming was full of confidence and perfectly fearless.
Unfortunately, his words made Seth Fleming sigh even more. 'What a pity. This is my younger brother.'
"Cripple!" The moment Hunter Sullivan finished his sentence, someone walked in.

He punched Sean Fleming's calf, and they all heard a loud crack. His bone had been broken.
From now on, Sean Fleming was crippled. He would spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
After completing his task, that man quickly returned to his position outside the room.
Discipline was key, and nothing could go wrong.
Seth Fleming was shivering in fear, and he quickly knelt in front of Hunter Sullivan. "Mr. Sullivan, this is a misunderstanding."
"Give me a reason not to kill you."
"I will. The one behind this isn't me but Quince Larson."
"Hehe, do you think that you can cheat me just by conjuring a name up? Quince Larson is from the Larson family. Why would he ruin his own family's business?"
"He's envious of Yvette Larson and is afraid that she would ruffle his position in the Larson family with this project."
Hunter Sullivan nodded. He had already found out all he wanted to know.
He got up and walked up to Yvette Larson. "Ms. Larson, you should've come to look for me when you encountered problems in the project."
Yvette Larson had narrowly escaped death. If Hunter Sullivan hadn't turned up in the nick of time, something bad would've happened to her.
At that moment, she was still in a trance and couldn't utter a single word.
"Tomorrow, the Larson Corporation! Seth Fleming, I hope that you'll turn up to denounce Quince Larson. Otherwise, I'm not sure how many of the Fleming family members will still be alive."
Hunter Sullivan strode off with a hundred people following him.
They walked in synchrony as a whole unit.
Finn Taylor returned home with his startled wife. Then, he went out.
…
Starbucks.
Finn Taylor took a sip of his latte and shook his head.
Hunter Sullivan quickly took the latte away, rushing to get a cup of cappuccino instead.
Finn Taylor took another sip before splashing it on the other.
There was not a single complaint from Hunter Sullivan before he left to get another cup of coffee.
He had made that round trip three times before Finn Taylor looked at him. "Do you have any complaints?"
"Of course not, Master Peregrine."
"Do you really have no complaints, or is it not the right time yet?"
"I… Master Peregrine, I really didn't notice it. None of my subordinates informed me of it."
"Oh, so you'd only have found out when something happened?"
"Master Peregrine, I'm willing to bear all responsibility."
"Alright, transfer half of the Sullivan family's assets to Yvette Larson. Remember to help her get a Swiss bank card, and don't tell her about it."
The Sullivan family of New York! They were one of the most prominent families in the country!
Half of their assets could easily bring one into the Forbes list. Even so, Hunter Sullivan dared not refuse Finn Taylor's request.
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
…
The next day.
Joseph Larson walked into the Larson Corporation. It was the first time in a long while since he had visited the company.
It was Quince Larson who had invited him over. He had told his grandpa that there was chaos in the Larson family, something so serious that he didn't even dare to write it out.
He had invited his grandpa to the company to announce the matter in front of the entire Larson family.

Doctored Chance: The Unpleasant Preceding of "Pajama Boy" and What Drove Him to Murder
I, Mick Chadwick, regret to inform my readers that this memoir contains nothing but the truth, which in the case of Tobias MacClain, most ridiculed as Pajama Boy, is far from pleasant. If you seek to relate to a hero more than to aspire to them and have the stomach for unpleasant things such as a hero left for dead, villainous scars, bomb threats, and murderous intent, then look no further. All of these gruesome things and more await from my research, and though I do not wish them on any man or woman, I cannot bear this burden on my own much longer. In the words of Tobias MacClain himself, "Sometimes, a villainous act can cause the greatest good." I hope that all my villainous acts of sneaking, blackmailing, diary-reading, and grave-digging, among others, will be redeemed as I present this complete and truthful memoir to the world, and with any luck, open eyes to the truth of what we call "villainy". Doctored Chance: The Unpleasant Preceding of "Pajama Boy" and What Drove Him to Murder ********* MATURE FILTER IS FOR:- violence- graphic imagery (blood, burns, fairly dark headspaces)- cartoon depiction of burn scars for visual aid Despite graphics, Mick Chadwick's writing keeps Mr. MacClain's terrible tale light somehow. This is foremostly a comedy.

Winter Sovereign
Serra Recquir, a boy born in the world of Sierra, was born with weak and with mediocre talent. Despite the odds, he pursued the path of cultivation. He faced numerous trials, deadly foes and great friends. Eventually, he stepped into the world of the Divine Realm. Breaking past the limits of the world and traveling to higher planes. After millions of years, he finally reached the summit. Becoming a Sovereign Paragon. Longing for the world he left countless years ago, he finally returns to his own world. Author's Note: This story is different from other wuxia novels. If those novels focus on characters that struggle from the bottom and reach the top, this story is one where someone already reached the top. I figured it would be interesting to start a novel from this concept so I started it. Well, however this plays through, just like how I finished my previous novel, Doll's Smile, I'll finish this novel too. Of course, I'm writing this novel just for fun. I like to write lighthearted novels like this. Novels that I would read while listening to music and eating snacks on a pleasant and relaxing afternoon. Do forgive me if I'm slow in writing.
