The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine - Chapter 429

Chapter 429: Terrifying

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Hilary Stone was much more scheming than Finn Taylor had ever imagined. ‘I thought that it was simply the Larson family’s fate that they ended up in this mess. Yvette is a girl after all, so she never would’ve been in line to inherit the family. Although Quince Larson is a male, he’s useless and also wouldn’t be chosen, much less Eleanor Larson. As for Quinn Larson, he’s still so young. If he were to take over the family’s reins, we’d all go down. That’s why I thought that everything was a matter of fate. Who would’ve guessed that Hilary Stone was the one behind all of this?’ 

“Hilary Stone, I’m starting to fear you. In fact, I think it’d be better to kill you right now. You’ll surely bring more trouble to me in the future.”

“Sure, come and kill me if you want to. I don’t mind.”

“Kill you? I’d be letting you off too easily. Besides, I still have another question to ask you. Since you had affairs with both Franklin and Frederick, who’s the father of your son?”

“Finn Taylor, your imagination is so limited. Would you believe me if I told you that he isn’t a Larson?”

“Of course, I would. Why wouldn’t I? You’re capable of so much. You’ve never been normal anyway, so I wouldn’t expect any less from you.”

“That’s right—I’m not normal. In the eyes of your family, I’m just a demon. But have you ever wondered why I became one? It’s all because of you! If your family didn’t steal our rations, my family wouldn’t have died, and I wouldn’t have been left an orphan.”

“That’s a feud between the previous generations. I don’t really want to comment too much about it, but what I do want to say is that you’re just finding a scapegoat. To be honest, those rations couldn’t have saved your family either. It would’ve been up to fate no matter what.”

“Well said, but have you personally experienced it? There’s no way you would say the same if this happened to you. You need to experience first-hand to understand what I truly feel.”

Although Hilary Stone was wicked and downright unreasonable at times, Finn Taylor had to admit that she made sense.

Nobody could truly put themselves in others’ shoes. Everyone’s feelings were subjective after all.

“Finn Taylor, what else do you want to know? I’ll tell you everything.”

“Oh, since we’re here, let me ask you another question. How did Frederick’s wife die? Everyone says that she died in labor, but I doubt so. You should know about it, right?”

“Of course. Died in labor? Nonsense! But even if she did die in labor, she’d deserve it!”

“Stop beating around the bush. Tell me exactly how she died!”

“Maybe it’s because I let Frederick have a taste of other women, and he decided that his wife wasn’t good enough for him. Did you know that his wife got into an affair? Frederick was away on a business trip for some time—three months, I think. It was during that time that his wife hooked up with another man. Eventually, she got so daring that she even brought the man home.”

“Then, Frederick suddenly returned home and happened to catch his wife red-handed with some other man at home. I’m sure you can imagine how infuriated he would’ve been at that time. He didn’t think it through and charged over with a knife, wanting to kill that man. Of course, he never expected that man to hide behind his wife, and so, he couldn’t catch the man.”

“I’m sure you can guess what happened after that: Frederick accidentally killed his own wife. Well, he said that it was an accident, but who knows if he did it on purpose. I don’t have any proof against it, so it’s up to you whether you believe it or not.”

“Where’s that man? Is he still alive? Have you met him? Has he ever visited the Larson family after that woman died?”

“No, he’s a piece of trash. Frederick’s wife must’ve been blind to have fallen for him. After she died, he never once asked about her.”

“Do you think Eleanor is a result of her mother’s affairs then?”

“That’s impossible. I’m sure you can see how much she resembles her father.”

‘That’s true. Besides, given Frederick Larson’s personality, he definitely would’ve done a paternity test. This can only mean that they’re truly biologically related.’ 

“How many people know about Frederick Larson murdering his own wife?”

“I’m not certain, but I do know that his daughter knows nothing about it. Other than me, the Old Master and your dad know about it too. Finn Taylor, don’t always think so highly about your family. You guys aren’t all that righteous either.”

“What do you mean? Why don’t you tell me?”

“Did you know that your mother-in-law has tried to find men outside too? It’s just that she’s too ugly and that nobody fell for her.. If she was as pretty as me, she would’ve gotten herself a man a long time ago.”
