Promising Son-in-Law

Chapter 31 The purchase program

Doris replied to Bar Martin with a serious face, “What?”

“I need a female companion to attend a banquet with me. May I ask you to go?” Barr Martin smiled at

her.

“I have a husband.”

“It doesn’t matter,” Barr did not care about it at all, “Doesn’t he mean nothing to you?”

Eva Gray nodded her head and said: “Of course! You’ll get divorced sooner or later!”

Back then, she thought the chairman of the Marquis group was the best candidate for her future son-in-

law, but it had been too long, which made Eva believed that compared with the secret chairman, Barr

Martin who was right in front of her was more practical.

“Mom, I said I had no plan on divorcing.”

Doris was fully aware of the change of Colin Ward, and she found that her husband was not so

unendurable. She intended to accept Colin and be with him as a real couple.

Her words pissed Eva off though, “Colin Ward is just a piece of shit! Look at your father! He’s a loser,

too! Look at me now! I’m telling you, with this kind of man, your life will be miserable!”

Baker Lee: “...”

“Colin Ward is not a loser, mom. This house and my car, he bought them both! And he has a job now!”

Doris tried to prove her husband was qualified, but Eva just did not care.

“So what? What about his salary? Can he support his family? This house and that car didn’t mean

anything! The money he used might even be a loan!”

Hearing this, Doris just bit her lips tightly. She knew Eva could not be reasoned right now, because

ultimately, her mother just despised Colin’s family background and did not believe at all that her

husband would have the ability.

“She’s going. I’ll make the call for her.” Eva turned to Barr and said.

Doris was going to say something more, while Barr Martin cut in, “Doris, don’t worry. It’s only a

banquet, and nothing more. You’ll do this favor for me, right?”

“Doris, he just promised to help you, but look at you now! Just do the man the favor!” Eva spoke to her

daughter.

Having no other way, Doris had to nod her head.

After that, she did not want to stay here anymore and went back to her own house.

When she opened the door, Doris found Colin Ward was chatting and laughing with a man she did not

know, which disappointed her a lot. She compromised for her husband, while her husband was just

having fun and did not care.

“Doris.” Colin heard the sound and saw Doris walked in.

“Ms. Ward.” Lenard Wang greeted her as well.

“So, they released you.” Doris said indifferently.

Colin nodded his head and thought she was being worried, “It’s fine, now. Don’t worry.”

“Good, I’m going to bed.” And she just went upstairs to the bedroom after saying that.

Colin did not know what caused her upset like this.

Wasn’t he released?

Why was she still unhappy?

Was it because of the project?

Lenard who saw this knew it was time to leave, so he stood up and said: “Alright, I guess I’ll catch up

with you later then.”

“Yeah, I’ll meet you next time.” Colin smiled at him and nodded his head.

In the morning, Fox Lee showed up fatuously in the police station with a fancy suit.

“What’s your business?” The police officer who stood guard stopped him.

“Get out of my way.” Fox Lee answered impatiently.

The police officer raised his voice, “I said what’s your business!”

“I’m here to see Captain Liu, so don’t mess around with me!”

Hearing his words, the two police officers looked at each other and then grinned at Fox, “So you must

be his friend! Come on in, please!”

Fox then walked in with a supercilious look, but next second, his hands were cuffed.

“What are you doing?”

The police officers said: “Captain Liu was captured because of bribery, but he never told us the name

of the people who gave him the money until you showed up yourself. You’re such a good citizen!”

Looking at the handcuff on his hand, Fox Lee tired to struggle but still, he was suppressed by the police

officers and sent straight to the interrogation room.

...

Colin Ward asked Lenard Wang to come into his office.

When Lenard came in and saw Colin, he was stunned, “You are the chairman of Marquis group!?”

Colin smiled slightly, “Yeah, I was promoted just a few days ago.”

Lenard Wang: “...”

“Okay, I’ll go straight to the point, Lenard. I’m aware of your ability and ambition, so let’s do it together!”

Colin looked at Lenard seriously as he spoke.

Lenard was very excited. He and Colin Ward were both men with abilities but had no supports, while

now, with such an excellent opportunity coming, he was so pleased that he even wanted to kiss Colin

on the face right away.

But still, Lenard calmed himself down quickly and asked: “You gotta know, I have no other supports.

Will it still be okay?”

“Of course, or why would I tell you who I am?”

“Okay! Since you believed in me, I’ll never let you down then!”

For the next two days, Lenard Wang became a senior executive first, and then the two of them stayed

in Colin’s office, collecting data.

Before Nina White could understand what was going on, they purchased plenty of companies and

factories which were about to be eliminated and go into liquidation.

Two people, three days, two billion...

Nina could not talk this to Colin, for he would never listen to her, while on the fourth day, she was

unable to hold it, so she called to Abe Ward and told him about this madness of his son.

“I’ll do something. You keep your eyes on him.” That was how Abe told her.

And on the fifth day, the company that was selling to Colin and Lenard changed their mind.

“Never mind, we had it enough.” Colin stretched himself and said.

“Yeah, otherwise, we will definitely earn less.”

Hearing their conversation, Nina White who stood aside rolled her eyes.

“Nina, could you take care of the rest, please?” Collin turned to Nina and said.

“Sure thing, Mr. Ward.”

Nina went out of the office and Colin then said to Lenard, “Come on, let’s go and celebrate.”

These days, all the companies and factories were chosen by Lenard Wang, and he proved his ability to

Colin once again. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

The two of them got out of the building and went to a small restaurant serving BBQ near their school.

“Cheers!”
