Chapter 380: Waiting To Take Advantage

Fortunately, Eddie just suffered a hypertensive crisis again because of getting too agitated, which made his blood pressure rise.

After taking some blood pressure medication, his breathing slowly stabilized again.

But Eddie now looked visibly more haggard than before because he was as pale as a sheet and looked like he had aged several years all of a sudden.

He had clearly suffered a massive blow.

After recovering from the attack, he looked at his children and grandchildren standing around him.

He said with a despondent expression, “Cheyenne, come here and bring me back!”

He was extremely miserable and full of regret for what he had done.

Lucas, Cheyenne, Charlotte, and William had all said that the tea leaves were authentic, yet he insisted that they were fake and refused to believe them!

The tea leaves worth more than a million dollars were flushed down the sewer just like that, while the Buddha statue, which he was certain was made of genuine jade, was smashed into bits.

How could he not be heartbroken and grief-stricken

After Cheyenne helped Eddie back to his room, Alex happened to return home and heard about the matter, leaving him in utter shock.

He asked in disbelief, “How is this possible How could the tea leaves and Buddha statue that Karens good-for-nothing son-in-law gave possibly be authentic”

He could hardly believe it!

Gretchen slapped her thighs and said with great regret, “Exactly.

Who would have thought that those tea leaves and the jade Buddha statue were authentic I heard that those tea leaves were worth more than a million, and that Buddha statue must be a rare and expensive item worth about the same.

Yet theyve been ruined! Otherwise, we would have struck a windfall!”

Gretchens words made the Turners feel great heartache.

“But knew that Karens son-in-law would be able to give such valuable gifts”

“Yes, this just goes to show that Karens life is getting better and better.

The gifts her son-in-law gave her parents were worth so much money!”

“Exactly.

Karen has always been beautiful since she was a child, and since she married into the Carter family, she has been living in luxury.

What an enviable life! Now that she has such a capable son-in-law, her life will definitely get even better in the future!”

“Yes, both of Karens daughters are so competent too.

Not only are they pretty, but theyve become the general managers of large corporations at such a young age.

Theyre going to bring so much money home.

Ah, so envious!”

Everyone in the Turner residence kept singing praises about Karen, and they were making it sound as though she was the most successful one in the family.

Karen modestly accepted the compliments, but deep down, she was incredibly smug and was enjoying the praises.

But when she heard these people praising Lucas, she felt extremely displeased.

In particular, the fact that Lucas had given her parents such expensive gifts, which he had never given her before even though she was his mother-in-law, made her extremely exasperated!

In fact, Karen really wronged Lucas.

Soon after Lucas returned some time ago, he had also given Karen lots of gifts, such as the top-grade diamond bracelet that James Wilsons wife, Sharon, had taken a liking to previously.

It was worth several million dollars, but Karen simply treated it as an inferior good and even mocked Lucas about it.

Karen, like the Turners, were all improvident people who failed to recognize valuable items.

“Karen, Cheyennes husband seems pretty good!”

“Yeah, he doesnt seem to be as terrible and incompetent as you made him out to be.

He gave us such expensive gifts, and most importantly, hes willing to spend on your parents.

Hes really quite a good son-in-law!”

A few of them started praising Lucas, and even Alex had a change of attitude.

He said to Karen, “Were about to have dinner soon, but William and Lucas left because we made them upset just now.

Quickly, give him a call and ask them to come back!”

Feeling indignant, Karen deliberately hollered, “Lucas Gray isnt as good as you make him out to be.

You have no idea how sloven he is at home.

He idles about all day and doesnt even have a proper job.

Hes just a freeloader! The tea leaves and Buddha statue he gave were bought with Cheyennes money!”

Of course, some people believed Karen, while some did not.

Cheyenne and Charlotte were now the general managers of major corporations.

It would make sense that they had spent so much money on those gifts.

But some people thought that there was no way they could have earned so much money since they had only become general managers recently.

“Karen, dont you keep demanding that Cheyenne divorces Lucas Are they still going to get a divorce or not If they are, Id like to do some matchmaking!” one of Karens cousins said excitedly with anticipation.

Karen knew that the son of her cousins relative was still a bachelor, so she reckoned that her cousin was thinking of introducing Cheyenne to him.

She rolled her eyes and said disdainfully, “Drop the idea.

I dont want my daughter to marry into your family and end up suffering!”

Karens cousin didnt get angry and instead said smilingly, “Dont worry.

We know were not worthy of Cheyenne.

Im referring to Lucas.

If you dont want him to be your son-in-law anymore, I can set him up with someone.

My husbands niece happens to be single.

I can introduce Lucas to her!”

A few more relatives were inspired by her words and hurriedly said, “Yes, I also know a girl in her twenties whos a suitable candidate.

Itll be quite a good thing to set her up with Lucas!”

“My colleagues daughter is almost thirty but still unmarried.

My colleague and her husband are worried sick.

They just hope for their daughter to marry a decent man.

I think we can set them up! Anyway, Karen doesnt want him to be her son-in-law anymore.”

Karen originally thought that Lucas was just a good-for-nothing whom no one wanted.

But to her surprise, many of her relatives were trying to set him up with people they knew.

She was displeased that they were thinking of picking up the trash she left behind.

“Hmph, hes just an incompetent good-for-nothing, but all of you are treating him like a gem.

Hah, Im really unimpressed! Fine.

I dont want him to be my son-in-law anyway.

You guys can take him for all I care.

You dont have to inform me!” Karen rolled her eyes with contempt on her face.

“Mom, Aunt, what are you guys talking about” Cheyenne walked out of Eddies room with a sullen expression.
