The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 1531-1535
Chapter 1531
In the Sun Family Hospital's top ward, Hank and Carl, the Sun family's second and third sons, underwent initial treatment after CT scans. Hank suffered a broken wrist, and Carl a bladder injury. Neither was life-threatening, but both required further treatment. This was all due to Charlie Wade.
Sun's Hospital, a private, high-end facility owned by the Sun family, though not on par with Union Medical College Hospital, was a leading private hospital. Eastcliff's top families each maintain private hospitals, ostensibly public, but primarily for internal use.
Besides Hank and Carl, the others Charlie Wade expelled from Orrin's house were also at the hospital, grimly devising countermeasures. Today's events were a complete shock. They hadn't anticipated a stranger at Orrin's house, much less one so powerful. The God of War and realm master Hank hired were diagnosed with severe muscle weakness—a mysterious condition baffling the medical community. This illness gradually weakens muscles, causing extreme fatigue. In severe cases, even simple tasks like lifting a water bottle become impossible; sufferers may lose control of their eyelids.
Hospital doctors conducted thorough examinations, finding significant neuromuscular transmission disruption—a classic symptom of muscle weakness. This was caused by Charlie Wade using Reiki to seal their meridians, though the doctors, unable to detect Reiki, only observed the muscle weakness.
Hank and Carl were baffled. Their hired masters, easily subdued by Charlie Wade, were now incapacitated. Were they dealing with a hidden master?
Chapter 1532
Even hidden-world masters supposedly abide by a code. Why would a neck pinch cause muscle weakness? The analogy to rendering someone impotent by touching their face was equally baffling.
The brothers sought revenge on Charlie Wade but lacked even his full name or background. More importantly, the God of War and realm master were helpless, leaving them without recourse.
Hank was devastated. He’d lost two powerful retainers and suffered a broken wrist—a considerable loss. His rage at Charlie Wade was immense, yet he lacked a plan for revenge.
Carl, clutching his injured bladder, suggested focusing on seizing their brother Orrin's shares before seeking retribution. His son, Trevor, agreed, emphasizing this as the priority.
Hank coldly concurred, noting Orrin's precarious health (he predicted a lifespan of only two or three months). They would secure the family's finances first, then deal with Charlie Wade.
Carl inquired about Hank's plan for the upcoming board meeting. Hank revealed he'd secured the cooperation of enough shareholders (over 51%) to seize control. He intended to force Orrin from the chairmanship at the meeting and install himself. This would allow them to legally take over Sun Group and transfer assets to shell companies, rendering Orrin's shares worthless.
Trevor then asked about Orrin's personal assets—mansions, luxury cars, a private island, jet, yacht, and valuable antiques (including a vast collection of calligraphy and paintings potentially worth billions).
Hank scoffed, asserting Orrin's collection alone was worth over ten billion. He had a comprehensive plan: seize the chairmanship, transfer assets, then force Orrin to bequeath them the remaining property, or else make their uncle's life—and the lives of his wife and daughter—miserable.
Carl eagerly awaited the upcoming board meeting and the opportunity to "give their dear eldest brother a good show." Hank planned to effect a "cultural change" on the board, forcing Orrin's resignation and establishing a "more prosperous Sun Group." Carl ensured Hank would remember his contributions to this endeavor. Hank affirmed their partnership, declaring it time they stepped out of Orrin’s shadow.
Chapter 1533
While Hank and Carl plotted, Trevor and Daniel, their sons, also contemplated their futures. The three brothers had eight children: Orrin had one daughter, Stefanie; Hank three (two daughters and Trevor); and Carl four (three daughters and Daniel).
Daniel, observing his father and uncle's machinations, wondered if he’d have to similarly manipulate his cousin, Trevor, to secure his inheritance.
Trevor, considering Daniel less astute and not his full sibling, reflected on potentially exploiting him as his father and uncle had done to each other and Orrin. He envisioned a scenario where he'd ultimately control the entire Sun family fortune, becoming Eastcliff's wealthiest individual.
Daniel, oblivious to Trevor's scheme, casually asked about Orrin's rumoured girlfriend. Trevor professed ignorance. Their conversation turned to a previous insult by Orrin’s daughter—the claim that they would be infertile—and their plans for retribution. They then boasted about their sexual conquests. Daniel offered to introduce Trevor to some European models.
Chapter 1534
Trevor readily accepted Daniel's offer. That evening, they went to No. 1 Mansion, a high-end club requiring a ten-million-dollar investment for VIP membership, offering luxurious suites, personalized service, and complete privacy.
Daniel, aiming to impress Trevor, arranged for four European models. Trevor immediately selected two.
Minutes later, both brothers emerged from their rooms in a panic. Trevor asked if Daniel was experiencing the same problem—complete loss of sexual function. Daniel confirmed it, overcome with despair and tears. Trevor similarly confessed his impotence. They speculated about a connection to Charlie Wade's earlier actions.
Chapter 1535
Within half an hour of leaving, the brothers returned to the hospital, fearing a leak to the public would shame the family. They rushed to the dean's office, urgently requesting medical attention. Trevor bluntly stated his impotence to the shocked dean, who initially attributed it to a functional disorder. Trevor's outburst of anger and threats, along with Daniel's physical intimidation, spurred the dean to arrange an examination by andrology specialists.
A team of experts examined them, finding no physical abnormalities, despite their persistent claims of complete sexual dysfunction. Hank and Carl, alerted to the situation, arrived to their sons’ distressing revelation.
