The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine

Panda Novel

“Hello, sir. I’m so sorry about everything. You must want to buy this dress for your wife; you have really good taste. As a show of our apology, we would like to give this dress to you for free.”

The female manager’s actions stumped her cousin. ‘This dress costs at least 3,000 dollars, and she said that she was going to give it to him for free!’

“No, this…” He was about to speak up when his cousin glared at him, scaring him into silence.

“Hello, sir. My name is Forest Clark. Let’s exchange numbers; I’ll send this dress to your house personally.”

Finn Taylor had been thinking of kicking up a fuss, but he didn’t feel at ease doing so given Forest Clark’s attitude. “Forget it. Let’s go with that.”

Without giving it much thought, he exchanged numbers with Forest Clark and let the latter know his address. He even insisted on it being delivered that very day.

Of course, Forest Clark was extremely respectful toward him.

Even after walking out, the couple couldn’t believe what had just happened.

It was true that they had been at fault to begin with, but Forest Clark had behaved so strangely. No matter how much the couple thought about it, they couldn’t wrap their heads around why it had turned out this way.

Of course, it wasn’t just Finn Taylor and Yvette Larson who didn’t understand Forest Clark’s behavior. Even the latter’s cousin, Kevin Smith, had no idea why she had done so. “No, doesn’t that dress cost at least 3,000 dollars? How could you just give it away for free?”

Forest Clark pouted and rolled her eyes at her cousin. “Take this; pay for it with this card.”

Kevin James was still confused as he took the card from his cousin. “You’re paying for it?”

“Of course.”

“Forest Clark, what’s gotten into you?”

But she couldn’t be bothered to reply to him. She knew what an important figure Finn Taylor was. Although she had lost about 3,000 dollars today, she had gotten the latter’s number.

This meant that she’d have the chance to get in contact with him in the future.

A Peregrine card holder was worth at least a billion dollars. Then, 3,000 dollars wouldn’t even matter to her.

Of course, it was too shameful to talk about this. As such, Forest Clark didn’t try to explain herself.

…

“Why did that person give us the dress for free?” Yvette Larson pointed at the boutique in confusion.

“I don’t know. Who cares? We’ll just take it.” Even Finn Taylor had no idea what had happened.

The only explanation he had was that the other party had gotten terrified that he would kick up a fuss in the boutique after witnessing what he had done previously. As such, she had chosen to give him that dress to keep him silent.

After strolling around for a while longer, the couple returned home.

Forest Clark happened to be sending the dress over right then. She made a call to Finn Taylor to say that she had arrived at the entrance to the neighborhood.

After letting his wife know, he headed out to pick the dress up.

Forest Clark was dressed in a very thin shirt. It was so thin that one could practically feel her body while standing at a close distance. “Hello, Mr. Taylor. Here’s your dress.”

Finn Taylor simply picked the dress up and walked off, not even saying a word to her.

When the former had walked away, Forest Clark stomped her feet furiously. ‘I wore this on purpose, but he hadn’t even spared me a glance. Am I not pretty enough? Is my body not tempting enough? Humph! Men are all b*stards! But I don’t believe you; you’re just putting on an act because we’re too close to your house. If I could just invite him out on a date, I’ll definitely find a way to get into a relationship with him.’

Upon returning home, Finn Taylor quickly got his wife to try on the dress.

But Yvette was in no hurry.

However, Finn Taylor was insistent, so she had no choice but to change into it.

The dress was beautiful, but she was even more stunning.

Finn Taylor had already mentally prepared himself, but he was dumbstruck by her beauty as she walked out.

It was hard to hide his surprise.

Of course, Yvette Larson was pleased with what she was seeing. “Is it nice?”

Although she already knew the answer, she still posed that question.

All women were like that. They wanted to hear it for themselves even though they already knew the answer.

“Yes, it’s really beautiful.” Finn Taylor’s answer satisfied his wife.

“Alright, I’ll wear this to the party tomorrow then. I’ll stun everyone there.” Upon talking about the party, Yvette Larson’s expression visibly darkened. ‘It’s the most prominent family of San Francisco—the Sanders family—we’re talking about. The host is also the family head, Grant Sanders. No matter how I look at it, I feel that going to this tea party is no different from entering a lion’s den. If I had a choice, I’d never attend it.’

Unfortunately, she didn’t have a choice.

…

Night fell, and dawn broke.

By the time dawn broke the next day, Yvette Larson had already gotten up and was getting dressed.

It was much simpler for Finn Taylor. He simply chose a suit for himself.

When Yvette Larson spotted that suit, she froze.

It was the suit that her spouse had worn at their wedding. To be honest, it was a very ordinary suit that she had thought her husband had thrown away a long time ago.

She had never expected him to still have it. It seemed like he had been waiting to surprise her with it. ‘How deeply does he actually love me?’

Very quickly, the couple finished their preparations.

After having their breakfast, Finn Taylor drove toward the Sanders family’s residence with his wife in the front passenger seat.

It was their second time there.

Last time, they had been dragged to the Sander’s family residence.

This time, they were going of their own volition.

Although the two visits seemed different, each was no less dangerous than the other. In fact, given Grant Sanders’s personality, Finn Taylor was sure that this wasn’t just a simple tea party.

By the time Finn Taylor and his wife arrived at the Sanders family’s gate, Joshua Sanders was waiting there to welcome the guests.

A cold gaze flashed past Joshua Sanders’s eyes the moment he caught sight of Finn Taylor, but it disappeared instantly.

Joshua Sanders turned toward Yvette Larson. “Oh, you’re here, Yvette. This way, please.”

Yvette Larson nodded and thanked him, then walked into the garden with her husband.

“Oh right, did Clarine receive an invitation?” Finn Taylor suddenly remembered about her and wondered why the Sanders family had invited his wife but not Clarine Landon.

“Clarine is being held captive.”

It was just a casual question, but he had been let in on such a huge secret!

“Captive? What happened? Was it the Sanders family?”

“No, but also yes.”

“What happened?”

“It’s because of the Sanders family. Clarine’s mother offered her up for marriage to the Sanders family, but she refused. That’s why her mother locked her up.”
