The Vengeful Son-in-law

Chapter 435

All their pride and fortitude collapsed at this moment. They knelt down in front of Hawthorne and

begged him.

This reaction not only made Elliot and others look down on them, but also made other people in the

Paynes despise them.

Such traitors who didn't have the backbone would be looked down upon everywhere.

Hawthorne kicked them away and said coldly, "It's useless for you to beg me for mercy. Wanna mercy?

Beg Mr. Howard!"

Although they were despicable traitors, they were not stupid. They immediately understood what

Hawthorne meant. They quickly knelt down to Tom and begged for mercy, "Mr. Howard, it was our fault

just now. We failed to recognize a big shot as you and offended you. Please don't bother yourself

arguing with the likes of us. Mr. Howard, please let us off this time!"

"Mr. Howard, you are a great man with a broad mind, so please spare us this time!"

They were no longer as proud and arrogant as they were just now, and they had no choice but to keep

begging Tom. They were really afraid now. If they were expelled from the Paynes, they were no longer

rich kids, which was equivalent to falling from heaven to earth. They had been used to a rich life and

could not accept it at all.

Tom was not moved at all in the face of their pleading for mercy. Tom always hated traitors who

worshiped and had blind faith in foreign things.

However, they were Hawthorne's grandsons and people from H Country, so it was not his turn to

meddle in this matter. He waved and said, "Go away."

They didn't know Tom's attitude, so they begged for mercy a few more times, looking pitifully at

Hawthorne.

Hawthorne sighed deeply. They were all young men in their late twenties. Why was Tom so outstanding

and his two grandchildren so useless?

After only studying abroad for a few years, they had already forgotten where they were from, but

worshiped and had blind faith in foreign things! Hawthornee was genuinely embarrassed. They really

humiliated him.

However, he could tell that Tom did not intend to argue with them. He glared at them and scolded, "Say

thank you to Mr. Howard quickly, then get out!"

"Yes, yes, yes. Thank you, Mr. Howard!"

"Thank you, Mr. Howard. I wish you good health and prosperity!"

They thanked Tom quickly and left, laying themselves open to ridicule.

After what had happened, the Paynes was even more embarrassed. Even Hawthorne, who had been

through a lot of trouble, could not help feeling awkward.

In the end, Myles broke the silence first and said, "Mr. Howard, it's our the Paynes' fault for what

happened last time. We shouldn't have alienated you because of May's threats! Mr. Howard, you are a

bigger person. Can you please forgive us this time? We'll give you 10 billion dollars to buy a 10-point

stake in Shield Security Company as compensation, okay?"

Myles was putting himself on a lower position. He offered to use ten billion dollars to buy a 10-point

stake in Shield Security Company, which was equivalent to giving the ten billion dollars to Tom for free!

After all, the Shield Security Company had just been established and was worth no more than 500

million dollars at most!

In an instant, the hearts of Elliot and others beat a lot faster, and they admired Tom even more.

However, Tom remained calm. Ten billion dollars was just a number to him. He didn't care at all.

He waved his hand and said, "Mr. Payne, Myles, since we used to be friends, you can go back. I won't

make an alliance with you. Also, I won't make an enemy of you as long as you don't offend me in the

future."

Hawthorne gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Howard, Myles was wrong just now. Instead of using 10

billion dollars to buy a 10-point stake in Shield Security Company, we want to use 20 billion dollars to

buy a 8-point stake in Shield Security Company! Also, we won't send anyone to interfere in the

company's operations. We just need Mr. Howard to come to our the Paynes for a meal every month."

In an instant, everyone here was stunned when they heard this. Elliot and others widened their eyes

and their breathing quickened!

Twenty billion to buy only 8-point stake in Shield Security Company! Oh my god. This was like giving

Tom the money directly.

Even for someone as experienced as Elliot, his heart was beating faster and his breathing became

rapid, even his face turned red.

As for the rest of the Paynes, their expressions changed slightly. However, when they thought about it

carefully, it would be worth it if they could form an alliance with Tom with 20 billion dollars. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Tom, waiting for his reaction.

Many of the Paynes, including Hawthorne, were very confident that Tom would not refuse such a good

thing if he had his senses.

However, Tom sneered and shook his head, "Mr. Payne, you'd better go. Elliot, show the guests to the

door. I'm tired."

After that, he stood up and walked to the bedroom.

Hawthorne was stunned. He thought Tom would agree if he gave him the money. After all, there was no

one in this world who didn't like money. Nonetheless, Tom's reaction was greatly beyond his

expectations!

Elliot was also stunned. When he reacted, he hurriedly said to Tom, "Mr. Howard, don't you think about

it? This is 200..."

Soon, he couldn't continue his words. Tom glared at him, and his whole body trembled. He said quickly,

"I see. I'll show the guests to the door now."

Other members of the Paynes were stunned, including Isabella. She was completely shocked. Now

Tom's figure was constantly magnified in her eyes...

It was twenty billion dollars. Even if she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, she couldn't be

indifferent to twenty billion dollars. This was twenty billion dollars. Many of the big domestic companies

were worth less than 20 billion dollars!

As far as she knew, the total value of Tom's three companies were only about 10 billion dollars, but

Tom was not interested in the twenty billion dollars he could easily get.

She asked confusedly, "Tom, why! Aren't you interested in the twenty billion dollars?!"

Others had the same questions, and they all looked at Tom.

Tom also stopped. He turned around, smiled thoughtfully and said, "A few days ago, I went to W City. In

order to curry favor with me, Rufus directly acknowledged allegiance to me and gave me all his assets,

worth more than 60 billion dollars. Do you think it's necessary for me to be interested in the 20 billion

dollars you offer?"

Hearing his words, everyone was stunned.

Especially Hawthorne and Myles, who both knew Rufus. They knew what Tom's words meant!

Elliot was so excited that his body trembled. His admiration for Tom was beyond measure.
