The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine Chapter 120

Social butterfly!
Promiscuous woman!
Capable people!
Michael Sinclair caught the most important keywords, and in an instant, he realized that it was true that Heather Larson was Yvette Larson's elder sister. However, they were probably on bad terms.
What Finn Taylor had meant by 'taking care of her' really meant to drive her to death. Of course, Finn Taylor couldn't explicitly say that he was trying to destroy a relative, much less do it himself.
That was why he could only say it in such vague terms.
Michael Sinclair knew that this was his only chance of surviving.
Finn Taylor turned to Michael Sinclair. He believed that the latter was intelligent.
Although the latter had offended him, he wasn't deserving of death yet.
Of course, Heather Larson would have to die if she tried to harm his wife again. If Michael Sinclair didn't kill Heather Larson, he could wait to die as well.
Finn Taylor got up and bade Connor Miller goodbye before leaving with his spouse and Clarine Landon.
As for the others, they wanted to leave but were stopped by Michael Sinclair. "Hand your phones over."
Just one sentence from Michael Sinclair terrified them.
Without any complaints, they took out their phones one after another.
Then, Michael Sinclair smashed all their phones to pieces in front of them. "I don't know if any of you recorded this, so this is probably safer. Let me tell you something. If you dare to say a peep about what happened today, you'll face an ending even worse than your phones."
They shook their heads fervently, swearing never to say a thing.
Michael Sinclair believed that they wouldn't either. After all, these powerless people would never fight against those in power.
Peace was their greatest blessing. If they were to go against him and fail, there would definitely be unthinkable consequences.

After they left the restaurant, Clarine Landon looked at Finn Taylor curiously, "What's your identity? Why was Michael Sinclair so respectful toward you?"
Yvette Larson looked over too. To tell the truth, even she was curious.
She had always thought that her husband was very mysterious.
"What identity could I possibly have? I was just putting on a bluff. I've known Chef Miller for years, but who would've known that he'd have such an impressive background? I guess Michael Sinclair was probably just afraid of Chef Miller."
Although Finn Taylor's explanation wasn't what they wanted to hear, it was the most plausible. 'If Finn Taylor had such an extraordinary background, there's no way he would've been bullied for three whole years by the Larson family.'
"Oh right. Was it Chef Miller who gave you the money to buy the house and the car?"
"Yes, but not really. A few years ago, Chef Miller told me about some stocks. I bought some and earned some money from it. However, I didn't make any more money after I lost touch with him."
Since his wife thought that his money had something to do with Connor Miller, he would simply go with it.
Yvette Larson thought that she was acute and had found out about the truth of the matter, and she nodded in satisfaction. "Oh right. What shall we do about Jimmy Landon and Annie Fraser?"
At the mention of that, even the usually brash Clarine Landon started to worry.
Two people had died at that gathering. While they deserved to die because they had called Yvette a prostitute and a b*tch, Finn Taylor would probably be implicated if investigations were to be conducted.
However, Finn Taylor remained indifferent. "Did that have anything to do with us? Michael Sinclair was the one who killed them, so he'll resolve the matter."

Finn Taylor smiled. 'I never did anything. What do their deaths have to do with me?'
"Oh right. Why did you suddenly talk about Heather Larson?" Yvette Larson was full of curiosity today. She couldn't help but feel that something was different about her husband today.
However, her significant other simply took her hand. It seemed like he didn't want to answer that question.
Although this had happened within closed doors, it hadn't remained under wraps. After all, there had been witnesses who had seen Jimmy Landon falling out of the window.
The Terre family of New York.
Pierre Terre was in the middle of a tea ceremony.
Just then, someone ran in frantically.
He looked up to see Levi Terre running in.
Levi Terre was a servant who had grown up with Pierre Terre. They shared an extremely close relationship, and there were no secrets between them.
The fear on Levi Terre's face was evident.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a frenzy?" Pierre Terre poured a cup of tea. "Take a sip of tea and tell me what happened."
But Levi Terre had no intention of drinking any tea. "H-he's back."
Thud!
It was a simple sentence. In fact, Levi Terre hadn't even mentioned any names, yet the teacup in Pierre Terre's hands fell to the ground, smashing into pieces.
The latter's face was filled with terror and fear. "H-he's back?"
"Yes, he even went to meet Connor Miller."
Pierre Terre couldn't help but panic. "Is he here to bring the Terre family down? No, I can't sit around waiting for that to happen."
Pierre Terre's gaze turned ice-cold. "Finn Taylor, do you think so highly of yourself? Do you really think you have everything under your control? Don't you know how much everything has changed since you left New York? Today, the four families are allies. Although you were the one who raised the four families and wanted us to keep each other in check, we've made the business circle here our playing grounds. You've been away for too long. It's time for your four pawns to take control of the game now."
Finn Taylor was the one who had raised all four families.
Through the fight between the four families, Finn Taylor was trying to play out the fight between him and Peregrine Hall.
But things had gradually changed after Finn Taylor left New York. While they had all hated each other in the beginning, they eventually formed an alliance.
If one prospered, they would all prosper. If one fell, they would all fall.
Pierre Terre was sure that Finn Taylor was back to deal with the Terre family this time. 'If you want to destroy the Terre family, you'll have to destroy all four families. I'm not afraid of you, Finn Taylor.'
…
At that moment, Finn Taylor had an invitation in his hands.
It was an invitation from the Sinclair family for Old Master Sinclair's 80th birthday.
Finn Taylor had nothing to do with the Sinclair family; they were simply trying to get in his good books. 'This is interesting.'
"Are you going?" Yvette Larson's gaze was filled with worry as she looked at that invitation.
"Do you not want me to go?"
"I know Annie Fraser's personality, and the Sinclair family is terribly vengeful. I'm afraid that this is an ambush and that it's a feast of vengeance!"
'A feast of vengeance!' Finn Taylor gazed into the distance and into the sky. Suddenly, a word popped up in his mind—Terre!

Ebony Chitin - Eclipse
Richard Adams is something of a talented alchemist. One of the few magical professions that have anything to do with some kind of science. Everything was going swimmingly, until the 'cold night' incident happened. With it being determined as his fault, that such a thing happened. He was promptly exiled until he could return to Eclipse with a new 'discovery' for his field. What he didn't expect; was that he'd run into a strange humanoid monster that could seemingly heal any life threatening wound in a matter of seconds. Certainly this would be what he needs to become a master alchemist. The first step on a multi series journey. Please excuse the earliest chapters and their poor grammer. Ebony Chitin follows Richard Adams, and Mimi on their Journey to understand each other and the world around them. Due the the exploratory nature of such a claim, it will cover many different topics. This was my first attempt at actually writing a story, and because of that I will not edit it. I'd suggest reading the second part as it comes out as most of the things within this book will be recapped. Though if it becomes popular I hope it might inspire some of you readers to write your own stories. Cover Art by Rose Dragon

Sector 27
It wasn't until June 3, 2101 that World War 4 ended. This was not a war that ended in peace treaties or truces; this war ended with disease. The atomic war caused plague and disease that crippled major countries. The generals and great leaders of the countries at war died from the radiation that penetrated every part of the globe. It was only then that humanity realized what they had done- what they had created. The first ever mutant was publicly executed the very day the war ended, and a new war began: the war against mutants. The surviving nation of Japan quickly rebuilt their country by dividing it into safe zones, or Sectors. There are currently 26 livable sectors in Japan; Sector 1 is the richest sector and the only sector that has completely rid itself of all radiation left over from the war. In fear against the threat of mutants, the once small section of the police force grew until it became the main police force in Japan. After all, humans shouldn't be blamed for crimes when the real threat to society is mutants. This police force that goes by their motto: Special Treatment Against Mutants (STAM) is comprised of agents that go about their work to capture and detain all mutants. Sector 26 is the poorest sector that humans can barely survive in; but there is one more part of Japan. This "dead zone" has such a high concentration of radiation that if a human were to step inside the barrier, they would die in mere moments. But within this dead zone, this 27th Sector, there lies a secret organization of mutants that fight against STAM and protect all mutants from their grasp. The Mutant Recovery and Protection Agency (MRPA) operates to hide mutants in society and allow them to live human lives. The only thing that stands in MRPA's way is STAM and its agents who hunt them down ruthlessly, so MRPA has their own set of skilled agents. And the battle rages on...

Inside Metsys
Inside the universe of Metsys, life is chaotic, cruel and crazy. People with Stats have power and everyone wants to be a Player. Meet Corn, a slave who has no memory of most of his past and doesn’t know how most of the world functions. This doesn’t stop him from escaping the bonds of slavery by risking his life on a gamble. After all, he would risk everything for freedom and the right to be a mage. But how’s a scrub to learn Magic and get power? Why, join the magical under belly of the city, of course. And eat all the mana that he can get. Two Disclaimers: 1) This is a work of fiction. Any characters, places, organisations and everything else in this novel are fictional. Any resemblance between anything in this novel and the plane of reality we live in is purely coincidental. Was that a bit over the top and a wee bit unnecessary? Maybe. 2) This story features an antihero with a slight hint of villainy. So, sooner or later, it’s going to get dark. Very dark. Hence all the tags. If you are prone to be squeamish, this might not be for you. Well. You were warned. ;)
