The Hidden Dragon In-Law

"Am I not worthy? Are you?"

Matthew Zhang's eyes were cold as he said, "You're just a worthless piece of trash. You can't even keep an eye on your own wife. Mary is suffering with you. She'd be much better off with me. I can give her anything she wants!"

James Ye's face turned icy. Lowering his voice, he said coldly, "I'll give you two choices. First, kneel and apologize to Mary in front of everyone, and take back everything you said. Second, I'll make sure your family's company goes bankrupt. You decide."

"Hahaha, are you kidding me? Who do you think you are, making my family's company go bankrupt?"

Matthew Zhang laughed wildly, looking at James with disdain, clearly not taking his words seriously.

"Are you delusional? How are you going to bankrupt my family's company? Do you even know its market value? You think you can just say 'bankrupt' and it happens?"

James remained expressionless, staring at Matthew as if he were an idiot. He then took out his phone and called Anthony Tang.

"In three minutes, I want to see Matthew Zhang's company bankrupt and its debts exposed."

Three minutes to bankrupt a company worth billions? It was like a daydream!

Matthew's eyes were filled with malice as he stared at James. "Damn it, you're full of crap! Do you think you're some kind of online super tycoon?"

Then, Matthew coldly added, "Trash, stop pretending. I'll give you two choices too. First, kneel and apologize to me, then divorce Mary immediately. Second, I'll get some people to cripple you and make you watch as I live happily with Mary. You decide! I'll give you one minute!"

James glanced at his phone and said, "You have one minute left. Are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"

"Get lost! You have thirty seconds to think. If you don't kneel, you'll regret it for the rest of your life!" Matthew said indifferently.

"Twenty seconds!"

"Ten seconds!"

"Five seconds!"

"Time's up. Don't blame me for being ruthless. You're the one asking for it!" Matthew shook his collar and signaled to his bodyguards to deal with James.

But just then, Matthew's phone rang.

Matthew was stunned. Seeing it was his father calling, he quickly answered.

"Dad, I'm already at the banquet. Are you here?"

On the other end, his father roared, "You idiot! Who did you offend? What trouble did you cause? All our shareholders are dumping our stocks like crazy! Our stock has dropped over eighty percent!"

His father continued to shout, "The bank suddenly demanded repayment of our debts! All our partners have abruptly terminated their contracts and stopped payments! Our cash flow is cut off! We have no choice but to declare bankruptcy!"

Matthew's face turned ashen, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

"Our family is finished! Completely finished!"

As he tried to ask more, he heard police sirens and the sound of doors being broken down, followed by officers demanding his father's cooperation for an investigation.

He suddenly felt weak all over, dropping his phone, which shattered on the ground.

His legs gave way, and he knelt before James.

The wind blew, leaving his body and heart cold.

The bodyguards, seeing this scene, were unsure and did not move forward.

Matthew, terrified, asked James in a low voice, "Who are you? You did all this, didn't you?"

The onlookers were also shocked. Matthew had taken a call and suddenly knelt before the Xiao family's live-in son-in-law. What was going on?@@novelbin@@

James looked down at him, bent slightly, and said in a low voice, "I gave you a choice, but you didn't choose wisely."

"I know I was wrong. I apologize. Please, spare me! Mary has nothing to do with me. I never touched her. The Dihao Group project wasn't because of me. Everything I said was made up. Please, forgive me and my family!"

Matthew kept kowtowing and apologizing. He never dreamed that the Xiao family's live-in son-in-law would have such power! One phone call, and his family was bankrupt!

Looking at James's calm face, he felt it was more terrifying than a demon's!

To bankrupt his family in minutes, such a person was not someone he could afford to offend!

James shook his head and said, "You should be grateful because at least I spared your life! Otherwise, your entire family would be dead by now!"

Hearing this, Matthew's face turned deathly pale, and he trembled violently.

James looked at him and said coldly, "To tell you the truth, I am that online super tycoon. If you don't want to die, you'd better keep my identity a secret. Otherwise, you and your father won't live to see tomorrow!"

With that, James patted Matthew's face and walked into the hall without another glance.

Matthew collapsed on the ground, completely humiliated, but he didn't dare to resist at all.

Seeing James walk into the hall, Matthew scrambled in as well.

Spotting Mary Xiao, he crawled over and knelt at her feet, kowtowing and crying, "Mary, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have spread rumors about you. The Dihao Group project has nothing to do with me. Please, forgive me!"

Mary was startled by his actions and quickly backed away, only to bump into a warm embrace.

Turning around, she saw it was James holding her.

James had seen Mary as soon as he entered. Today, Mary was dressed up beautifully, standing out like a star in the crowd.

Seeing Matthew rush towards Mary, James quickly held her to prevent her from falling and glared at Matthew.

Terrified, Matthew immediately backed away, afraid of angering James.

Mary, puzzled, asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Holding her, James whispered, "Maybe he's having some kind of fit. Ignore him."

Though they were married, they had never been close. Feeling James's warm embrace, Mary's ears turned red.

She quickly pulled away from James's arms, stammering, "Um, Chairman Ye of Dihao Group should be here. I need to go check..."
