Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 747: Chapter 747: Going Home

The final resolution of this incident was carried out according to Xu Ke’s method. The police took the three girls to the police station, and they were facing astronomical compensation and a prison sentence. The female shop assistant who tried to make Xu Ke the scapegoat was also fired by the owner. Once today’s events spread, no shop would dare to hire them, and it can be said that their future prospects are bleak.

Xu Ke seemed to have let them go, but in reality, the punishment they received was on par with what they would have suffered at Claude’s hands, perhaps even worse. After all, even if Claude’s knife cuts deep, its pain is momentary; once it’s over, everything is past. But Xu Ke’s knife is like a soft blade, its pain not as intense as Claude’s but lasting much longer, causing them daily suffering without respite.

After dealing with the toy store incident, Xu Ke naturally released Alice’s hand, which he had been holding, and looked at Claude and said, "I guess you must have come personally because you have something you need me to do. I wonder if there’s anything I can do to help you." Xu Ke said with a slight smile on his face.

Behind Xu Ke, Alice showed a hint of disappointment on her face, her eyes unblinkingly looking at the hand that had just been released. Her heart felt like it was on a roller coaster, going up and down without ever reaching the ground, feeling uneasy and unsure of what Xu Ke meant.

In front of Xu Ke, Claude turned around, looking serious and earnest. After a while, he said, "I admire you a lot. Sometimes I wonder if you have some special power because you can so easily read my mind. I came personally this time partly to thank you for saving me last time. Although I gave you some money afterward, I always feel that some things cannot be replaced by money, so I came personally. On the other hand, I really do have something I need your help with. I don’t know who else could help me; the only person I could think of is you."

Claude looked at Xu Ke with sincere eyes, as if Xu Ke were his last hope.

"As long as I can help, I certainly won’t refuse. There’s no need for you to make a special trip." Xu Ke adopted a flattered posture but felt no emotional stir within; even being tested by others didn’t make him feel any nervousness. It was as if he was born missing this part, with few people or things able to make him feel tense.
