The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine

Chapter 36: Quince Larson’s Punishment

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yvette Larson answered every single one of Quince Larson’s questions. They all pointed to the same thing—that Yvette Larson was dirtied by Sean Fleming.

“You piece of trash, didn’t you go with her yesterday? Why can’t you even protect your own woman? You let your wife get raped right in front of you?” Quince Larson glanced at Finn Taylor in disdain.

“Yvette Larson, you’re such a disappointment. I’ve decided to…” The Old Master—Joseph Larson’s blood was boiling.

He slammed the today, causing everyone to shut up.

He was just about to announce that he would kick Yvette Larson’s family out of the Larson family. Right then, the door of the conference room was opened once again.

Three people made their way in. They were Hunter Sullivan, Seth Fleming, and Sean Fleming in a wheelchair.

Everyone was stunned. Nobody had any clue about what was going on.

“M-Mr. Sullivan?” Joseph Larson recognized Hunter Sullivan, who was the head of New York’s Sullivan family.

The Larson family’s Old Master had never expected him to show up at his company personally.

“Joseph Larson, I think you’re muddleheaded now that you’re old. How could you be in such a hurry to draw your own conclusions without investigating the matter? I’m here today to tell you the truth of the matter.”

The Larson family members had already dragged two chairs over for Hunter Sullivan and Seth Fleming.

“I…” Joseph Larson was full of doubts and didn’t know what to say.

“The whole of San Francisco knows about my collaboration with the Larson family. Why did the Fleming family dare to go against me and provoke me by standing in my way? You were called here by Quince Larson early in the morning to question Yvette Larson. Where was everyone yesterday? Why did Yvette Larson head over alone?”

Hunter Sullivan had only posed two questions, but that was enough to throw the entire Larson family off. Based on Hunter Sullivan’s logic, it was true that the whole matter seemed suspicious.

“What’s wrong? Yvette Larson told me that she would resign from her position if she didn’t resolve the matter within a week. She was in a hurry to get it done, and that’s why she headed there alone. As for why the Fleming family tried to stand in your way, perhaps it’s because they were resentful that they didn’t get the opportunity to work with your family.”

Quince Larson was calm and collected, easily answering the questions that Hunter Sullivan had posed.

Unfortunately, he had missed out on one point: Seth Fleming was present as well.

“Oh? Seth Fleming, Quince Larson said that you tried to ruin my project because you were resentful. What do you think about that?”

“He’s spouting nonsense!” Seth Fleming stood up emotionally and slammed the table. “Quince Larson, you were the one who asked me to ruin the project. You even said that you would split the profits from this project with me equally. As for what would’ve happened to Yvette Larson, that was also your idea. You said that you’d be able to chase her out of the Larson family as long as she was tainted. Then, nobody in the Larson family would dare to fight with you.”

Seth Fleming’s words were like a bolt out of the blue.

The entire Larson family was stunned.

Quince Larson quavered and tottered backward unsteadily.

Eleanor Larson tried to salvage the situation. “That’s impossible. Brother isn’t someone like that. Mr. Fleming, let me ask you: Is Yvette Larson tainted?”

Sean Fleming spat right at Eleanor Larson’s face. “You fool! Don’t you see that I’ve been crippled?”

Sean Fleming was furious. If he could stand up right now, he would’ve punched someone instead of simply lashing out at them.?‘Stupid Quince Larson! What kind of stupid idea was that? Great, not only have I been crippled now, but our Fleming family is also in danger.’

“Joseph Larson, I think your mind really is muddled because of your age. If you can’t even tell who the true hero and sinner in your family are, I think there’s no need to proceed with our project. I’ll tell the rest of the families that the Larson family doesn’t know right from wrong and that they’re not worthy of our collaboration.”

Hunter Sullivan was a prominent figure, after all, and his words held weight.

When Joseph Larson heard that, he got so frightened that he shot up from his seat.

It was true that Hunter Sullivan’s words could cause the Larson family to lose all of their partners. That would mark the Larson family’s end.

“Mr. Sullivan, these are the Larson family’s private matters. I’m willing to punish Quince Larson, but I hope that you won’t interfere in that. Alright?”

Hunter Sullivan didn’t reply to him and simply turned to leave.

Behind him, Seth Fleming followed along while pushing Sean Fleming.

Once they all left, Joseph Larson yelled at Quince Larson in a fury. “Kneel down!”

Quince Larson was scared stiff. Not daring to rebuke his grandpa, he simply fell to the ground in front of Joseph Larson with a thud. “Grandpa, I was wrong; I was just blinded for a moment. I know that I was wrong. I really do.”

Joseph Larson shut his eyes and waved his hands. “Say no more. From today onward, I’ll relieve you from all your duties in the company and stop giving you a monthly allowance for a year.”

Quince Larson repeatedly kowtowed before his grandpa, expressing his gratitude.

Joseph Larson left the office, mentally exhausted. He felt as though he had aged a decade in an instant.

Only after Joseph Larson left did his grandson gradually get up. He looked at Yvette Larson with a strange smile on his face. “Hahaha… Yvette Larson, I bet you didn’t expect this. You couldn’t even kick me out with this. Grandpa only asked me to leave the company, not the family.”

“Yvette Larson, remember that I’m a man and that you’ll always be a woman. No matter what I do, Grandpa will still hand the reins of the family over to me, not you. Just you wait and see. The next time I return to the company, it’ll be to kick you out of the family.” Quince Larson left the office with a gleeful smile on his face.

Although he had been relieved of all his duties, he was still happy.

He didn’t think that he had lost. In fact, he had managed to test his grandpa’s stance through this matter.

His grandpa had eventually stood on his side.

Yvette Larson had successfully kicked her cousin out of the company. Nonetheless, she wasn’t in a good mood at all.

‘Grandpa is getting more biased by the day. Quince tried to scheme against the family and had even put the family and company’s reputations at stake. What would Grandpa have done if I had been the one who had done so? But today, Quince Larson had gotten off with a mere slap on the wrist. Grandpa is too biased!’

…

At the same time, Finn Taylor received a message on his phone.

It was a text message from Logan Yeats: “Master Peregrine, I’ve gotten leads on the beggar. The Second Young Master is involved.”

Finn Taylor shut his eyes in contemplation.

The Second Young Master, Donovan Taylor. He was Finn’s younger brother but also his arch-enemy.

‘I can’t shake off the feeling that a disaster is about to strike, perhaps a huge disaster. However, I have no regrets.’

“Yvette, I have something on and will be away for a few days.” Finn Taylor brought the matter up to Yvette Larson in her office.
