Jaw-Dropping Son-in-Law

“Don't get all worked up. My sister has found favor in your brother's eyes. If you rashly get into a fight with her, he might just take her side.”

“Don't get all worked up. My sister has found favor in your brother's eyes. If you rashly get into a fight with her, he might just take her side.”

Caridee clenched her teeth and scoffed, “Doesn't she know what a filthy sl*t she is? How dare she dream about designing me a gown for my coming-of-age ceremony? What a joke!”

Rhonda sighed and said casually, “That's not all. She even told your uncle and his wife that the son she bore back then was Edmund's child. I swear that the kid was born out of wedlock after she slept with Mr. Larson. How could the baby be one of the Chiverses?”

Caridee cringed as the corner of her lips twitched in disgust. She had learned something new about that shameless woman which redefined her understanding of moral values.

“Haha! Oh my goodness! Did she really say that Edmund fathered the child she gave birth to seven years ago? This is ridiculous! It's utterly absurd! Did my uncle believe her words?”

Rhonda shook her head helplessly. “He has requested Justin to run a paternity test on both of them, and the results will be out tomorrow. I'm rendered speechless by Bailey's actions. She's gone overboard by deceiving the Chivers family just because she longs to climb up the social ladder.”

“She's an absolutely brazen woman! Rest assured that I'll figure out a way to expose her true colors to my brother and bring Max home, Rhonda.”

“Caridee, please understand that I'm not trying to drive a wedge between the two of you, but that's the reality. You—”

“Don't worry, Rhonda. I won't tell anyone what you told me today.”

Meanwhile, in the study of the Chivers residence, Yoel and Edmund were staring daggers at each other.

Their terrifying auras permeated the air, causing the tension in the room to be so thick that one could cut it with a knife.

“Spill! Is that child yours?” Yoel broke the silence.

Edmund lifted his head and glanced at his father with a faint smile. “Does it matter whether he is or not? Is it a big deal? I want to marry Bailey, not her son. You've been pursuing a rational and nonchalant lifestyle your whole life. Thus, don't you start giving me a lecture now and bother yourself with those petty matters!”

Yoel slammed his fist on the coffee table and created a deafening bang.
