The Vengeful Son-in-law

Chapter 124

Tom finally invested in SK Company.

Because Phoebe finally agreed.

Everyone in the Scotts, including Richard, bowed their heads and apologized to Phoebe. Their attitude

were rather sincere. Those who didn't know the situation thought that the Scotts was such a loving

family.

Phoebe was a soft-hearted person. Even if she knew that their apologies were fake and only

temporary, she still nodded in the end and couldn't bear to see SK Company go bankrupt.

Tom did not break his promise and asked Elliot to hand over, intending to invest 100 million dollars. Of

course, he couldn't take out this money at once, but twice. The first he would give 40 million dollars,

and the second time 60 million.

Moreover, Tom directly bought 55% of SK Company's share, which was equivalent to buying the

decision-making power, and then the 55 % shares were transferred to Phoebe. In other words, Phoebe

was the largest shareholder of SK Company now, and directly became the chairman of the board.

At first, the Scotts did not agree, saying that Tom's approach was beyond limits. Later, Tom refused to

give in with a strong attitude gave them no way out, so they had to agree. Otherwise he would withdraw

the investment. After all, although their shares had shrunk, their annual dividends had actually risen

with this investment.

After all the procedures, Tom didn't stay inside anymore. He wanted to come out and get some air.

Elliot received Tom's gaze and he withdrew quietly.

"Mr. Chairman."

Walking to the corner to make sure there was no one around, Elliot called out respectfully.

Tom regained his cool demeanor as he was in the ZQ Inc, nodded gently and said, "You did a good job

today. I'm very satisfied."

Elliot was overjoyed inward. Outwardly, he bent down more respectfully and said, "You've been taught From NôvelDrama.Org.

us well!"

Tom smiled and said, "Okay, you don't have to flatter me. I know you have a lot of doubts, but there are

some things that you shouldn't know and get involved. Don't talk too much. I believe you know that

curiosity can kill the cat."

Elliot quickly lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Chairman. I won't!"

"Well, that's it. When you get back, arrange a few elites to come over and help my wife. This 100

million investment is not for nothing." Tom ordered.

"Understood!" Elliot immediately said seriously, indicating that he would carry out his instructions.

He still had some cold sweat on his forehead. Originally, he was really curious about Tom. Why a

uxorialocal son-in-law of the Scotts, with a humble status, could be the chairman of the ZQ Inc. His

intuition told him that Tom was not a nobody as he showed. But now, he did not dare to have this idea,

because Tom had read his mind. He completely believed that if he secretly investigated Tom's

background, once discovered, then Tom would never let him off lightly!

He was a smart man. He always knew the situation and made wise choice. That was why he could

survive in this circle for so long without any enemies.

Because sometimes, curiosity could really kill people.

Coincidentally, Phoebe also came out. She walked over from the corridor and saw Elliot being

submissive in front of Tom. Her brows furrowed and she was filled with endless doubts.

Today, Tom showed his power, but his action also brought endless confusion.

Tom noticed Phoebe's arrival, quickly put away his cold aura, bent down, held Elliot's hand with both

hands, and said gratefully, "Mr. Cook, thank you so much for your help today."

Elliot was obviously stunned for a moment, then he quickly reacted and said, "Mr. Howard, it's okay.

This is what I should do."

Tom continued, "Mr. Cook, I'll treat you to dinner another day."

"Okay."

At this time, Phoebe came over. Seeing them being so friendly, she frowned even more and said, "Mr.

Cook, how did you know Tom?"

Elliot and Tom had already made up their story in advance. He smiled and said, "Mr. Howard is a good

friend of our chairman. I just listened to the chairman's orders to cooperate with Mr. Howard."

"What?" Phoebe's eyes immediately widened, surprised that Tom actually knew chairman of ZQ Inc?

When Tom saw Phoebe's surprised look, he was actually quite guilty. After all, he helped in the name of

ZQ Inc this time, and his figure was so similar to chairman of ZQ. He didn't know if he could deceive

Phoebe.

Phoebe's heart beat faster all of a sudden. She didn't expect Tom to know chairman of ZQ Inc! So,

what happened between her and the chairman...

For a moment, Phoebe's mind became complicated again, a little confused.

When Elliot saw this, he didn't dare to stay and ran away. Tom and Phoebe were the only left ones.

After a while of silence, Tom broke the silence first. "Phoebe, you will be the chairman of SK Company

from now on. You can do whatever you want. Don't be afraid. If anyone still dares to disobey you, you

can fire him directly."

Phoebe didn't answer. After a while, she looked up at Tom and asked, "How did you know chairman of

ZQ Inc? Why didn't you tell me?"

Tom had already made up his story and said, "He's my childhood friend. We haven't been in touch for a

long time, and I just reconnected with him a while ago. As for why I didn't tell you, even if I told you, I'm

afraid you wouldn't believe me, so I just keep it secret."

Phoebe was in a mess. She couldn't tell if Tom was lying. She gritted her teeth and said, "It was all

because of you that he lent me money so generously and saved me from Brian?"

Tom nodded. "Yes."

He was complacent, thinking that Phoebe would definitely be moved. He straightened his back and

waited for Phoebe's gratitude. Suddenly, he realized something was wrong. Phoebe's face was much

paler, and her expression was not good. She clenched her fists, struggling and unhappy.

Tom's heart skipped a beat and he quickly explained, "Phoebe, I didn't mean to lie to you..."

Phoebe suddenly looked up and stared straight at Tom, saying, "Tom, you're such a self-righteous guy.

You hurt me!"

After saying that, she stopped talking to Tom and turned around to run away. Tears welled up in her

eyes.

Tom was stunned. What was going on?

He had helped her many times, so why did it turn to be hurt?
