The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine Chapter 128
Advertisement
Finn Taylor's words were like a bolt out of the blue.
Everyone's eyes were glued to the piece of jade in Finn Taylor's hand. 'Cursed!'
What Finn Taylor was saying was that Heather Larson was trying to use sorcery to kill Yvette Larson, Quince Larson, and Eleanor Larson!
'This… If this is true, then Heather Larson will be doomed.'
It was common for families to have internal conflicts—even Joseph Larson had only earned his position as family head after a struggle.
However, blood ties were the most important factor that bound them all together. As such, no struggle should ever lead to any deaths.
But Heather Larson had gone against that rule.
"I have a piece of jade too." Just then, Quinn Larson stood forward.
He had a piece of jade in his hand as well—it was exactly the same as the one in Finn Taylor's hand.
"Heather Larson gave it to me."
At the same time, Quince Larson and Eleanor Larson took out theirs.
The four pieces of jade looked identical.
All eyes were glued to Heather Larson.
In an instant, the latter was thrown into the spotlight.
Nobody from the three branch families dared to say a word. Even they had no idea whether Finn Taylor was speaking the truth. 'If it's true, we would definitely be branded as accomplices if we speak up for Heather Larson.'
All that was heard in the room was Heather Larson's laughter. "Finn Taylor, what kind of mean prank are you playing now? You say that I'm trying to kill Yvette Larson, but where's your proof? Do you think that you can use this piece of jade as evidence just because I gave it to them?"
Heather Larson naturally wasn't going to admit to attempting murder. In fact, she was even trying to pull Finn Taylor down.

"Joseph Larson, do you hate us so much that you're trying to malign us now?" Heather Larson was trying to use the conflict between the main family and the branch families to make everyone misunderstand that Finn Taylor was only maligning her.
Unfortunately, there was no way Finn Taylor would've appeared before them and exposed everything if he didn't have concrete evidence.
Finn Taylor wasn't the slightest bit nervous as he tossed his phone to his wife.
She caught it and realized that there was a video on it. As such, she clicked it open.
When the recording started playing, everyone's expressions changed.
What Yvette Larson saw was Heather Larson taking the four pieces of jade from an old monk in the Thai temple.
The others could clearly hear the conversation between the monk and Heather Larson.
Heather Larson had asked the monk whether the pieces of jade were really cursed and how long it would take for them to die. She even asked if she would be in any danger.
After the video was played, Quince Larson rushed up and snatched the phone from his cousin to watch it again. He then pointed at the phone and roared at Heather Larson, "Heather Larson, you tried to kill me! I trusted you so much, yet you tried to kill me!"
Heather Larson was in complete despair. Faced with solid evidence, she had nothing left to say.
Nobody in the Larson family, especially those from the three branch families, dared to say a thing.
Finn Taylor glanced at Walter Larson. "Walter Larson, your daughter tried to kill her own family members. You've humiliated your father, so I'll burn his photo in front of you today. Do you have any objections to that?"
With that, Finn Taylor immediately lit the photo on fire without waiting for Walter Larson's reply.

As such, Harrold Larson's photo was completely burned to ashes in front of the three branch families.
"Grandpa, as the Larson family head, how are you going to handle this?" Finn Taylor naturally wasn't going to let Heather Larson off easily, but he wanted to see what his grandfather would do.
"Heather Larson, you tried to kill your family members with cursed pieces of jade. I'm announcing that you're going to be chased out of the Larson family. I'll let Yvette Larson and the rest decide on how to deal with you."
"Walter Larson, you didn't raise your daughter well. From today onward, you'll be stripped of all your positions and power in the Larson Corporation. None of Harrold Larson's descendants will be given a place in the ancestral hall either. The other two branches, you'd better not say that you didn't know anything about this. I won't believe you anyway. I'll reduce your salaries in the company by 10%."
With that, he harrumphed and walked off.
The Larson family had pretty much crumbled.
"What are we going to do with her?" Yvette Larson pointed at Heather Larson as she asked her husband.
Finn Taylor chuckled. "Hurry up and scram!"
Heather Larson was slightly confused. 'Finn Taylor has let me go!'
Although she didn't understand the situation, she didn't want to stay here. As such, she sprinted off the moment she got the chance.
Eleanor Larson thought that it was strange for Finn Taylor to let Heather Larson go.
Of course, Finn Taylor hadn't done so. There was no way he would let someone who had plotted against his wife go.
He simply didn't want to kill someone in front of his wife.
Someone would naturally end her life after she left. She would definitely be dead before the day ended.
"Finn Taylor, are you stupid? She tried to kill your wife, yet you let her off just like that?" Seeing that Finn Taylor had let Heather Larson off the hook, Quince Larson was visibly annoyed.
Nonetheless, Finn Taylor merely rolled his eyes at him. "Quince Larson, do you remember our bet? I bet you're regretting it now. Come on—my shoes are here. Lick them."
In an instant, Quince Larson was thrown into a daze. 'What's going on? Why did I have to say that? Great, I've made it obvious that I'm regretting it now.'
"I… I was only joking." As he said that, he turned to back away.
Finn Taylor took a step forward and snatched his phone back. Then, he pressed Quince Larson onto the ground.
Quince Larson had been forced onto the other's shoes.
'I don't care if you're willing or forced. Anyway, you licked my shoes.'
"Let's go home!" Finn Taylor picked his wife's hand up and walked out of the room.
The rest couldn't help but feel a whole range of emotions rise up. They had been exceptionally indignant when that piece of trash—Finn Taylor—had first started to wreak havoc at the ancestral shrine.
Who would've thought that it would turn out this way?
"Did you already know about it?"
"Not for long, but I had my suspicions from the first time I saw your piece of jade."
Yvette Larson was over the moon today. She hadn't understood why Finn Taylor had been trying to kick up such a huge fuss at the ancestral shrine. Thankfully, she had chosen to trust him.
And as it turned out, her trust had been well-placed. This man had spared no effort in protecting her.
Just then, Finn Taylor received a message from Zane Yeller.
