The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine-Chapter 406 - Angry

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“What, did you think that I’d get upset? Did you really think that I’d be angry about you working with Willow?” Yvette Larson chuckled. “Don’t overthink it; I’m not as petty as you. That young girl was your friend, but you took advantage of her. You assigned her to such a lowly position and even gave her such a low salary!” ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

Finn Taylor wanted to laugh. He couldn’t tell if his wife was putting him down or whether she was angry at him. If she wasn’t angry, that would be even stranger.

‘If your husband and best friend met secretly—even if it was only for work—shouldn’t you get angry as a woman? Wouldn’t you get jealous? I’m sure you’re lying if you deny it. It’s natural to get jealous. Everyone experiences joy, sadness, and anger.’?

But Yvette Larson knew her husband well and knew that he had his own limits. She was certain that he would never cross the line with her ex-best friend.

“Actually, this isn’t what I want to talk to you about. Have you thought about it? Willow Stone only wants to work with me to defeat that family in Europe, not the Taylor family of South-East Asia. However, I don’t even know how powerful that European family is. From what I can tell, South-East Asia’s Taylor family doesn’t even mean much to Willow Stone. She can probably easily destroy them as long as she wants to. It’s just that she doesn’t want to do that just yet.”

“When I talked to her that day, she said that the Taylor family was just an underling of that European family. If she really wanted to deal with them, they would be no match for her. Yet, Melanie Taylor is such a strong opponent for me. If I take the wrong step, I might very well die in her hands. However, someone who has my life in their hands means nothing to Willow Stone! That can only go to show how influential that European family is! I’m starting to regret my decision to work with her, but I can’t possibly go back on my word. I’m worried about you.”

His wife was confused. “Me?”

“Yes, I’m worried about you. I never should’ve agreed to work with her. It’s alright if something happens to me, but you’ve now been implicated as well. What if that family tries to kill us? The Taylor family from South-East Asia is putting enough things on my plate, and I now have more to deal with. Sigh, I can only blame my incompetence. I met my master a few days ago, and he reminded me how he had tried to train me when I was younger. However, I slacked off and always thought that I could put off my training till the next day. That was how I lost so much precious time.”

“Master told me that finances aren’t the only thing I’m lacking at the moment. I’m lacking in my martial arts skills too. Who will I be able to beat up, much less kill? Those people may be influential, but don’t you think that they’ll be afraid of you if you’re able to beat them down with a single punch? If I could do that, the Taylor family of South-East Asia or even that European family will mean nothing to me.”

“Finn, remember that we’re married. We’ll stay together for better or for worse, do you understand? I’ll repeat myself if you don’t. Don’t try to bear the burden alone. I’ve never regretted marrying you, and I’ll support whatever decision you make. I don’t object to you working with Willow. Who cares about South-East Asia’s Taylor family or that family in Europe? You’re the strongest in my eyes. I believe that you’ll be able to defeat them! Didn’t your master say that you’d be able to protect yourself as long as you’re skilled enough? Stop wasting time here then. Let’s get down to training.”

“Haha! There’s no hurry for that. Let’s go have something to eat first.” Finn Taylor hadn’t expected his wife to be in more of a hurry than himself. He had brought her here for a meal, yet she wanted him to start training before they even had said meal!

“Have our meal? Do you think this is a joke? Since your master already said so, I’ll have to supervise you on his behalf.”

“No, no. Master is right, but I have something to say too. Humans need to eat to survive. I haven’t eaten yet, so how am I supposed to have any strength to train? Come on; a meal won’t take us long.”

“I’ll trust you one last time. Let’s go for a workout after this then.”

Finn Taylor then brought his wife into a restaurant. He had been here once and had enjoyed his meal.

The man then ordered several dishes before turning to his wife and asking what she wanted.

“Hey, I didn’t realize that you like cilantro.”

‘I thought you didn’t like eating cilantro. I remember that you even scolded me for buying it in the past because I wanted to have some. Don’t they say that there are only two kinds of people in this world—those who like cilantro and those who don’t? It’s obvious that we’re split right down into those different camps.’?

“But I’ve changed for your sake, and I eat it now. What, do you feel moved by my love?”

“Of course. I’m very moved that you love me so deeply that you were willing to change your old habits. I’m so lucky!” 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

“Stop it with your glib tongue and eat your vegetables!” However, Yvette Larson understood that her husband was the one who had truly made the most sacrifices in their relationship.. While they had gone through the past three years together, Finn Taylor had always been the subject of ridicule, not her.
