The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine - Chapter 303

Chapter 303: The James Family’s Ambition Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios “Mom, you’ve really grown muddleheaded.

Although we’re relatives, I’m sure they don’t treat us as relatives because we have no money.

Even though she agreed to help us on the surface, I’m sure they’re in cahoots and that it was nothing more than an act.

It’s the Larson family’s company, and the chairman is your granddaughter.

However, she simply pushed the decision to the board of directors.

Don’t you think she’s just trying to get rid of us? You were right; it’s only right to have the board of directors decide on matters regarding strangers.

Aren’t we no different from strangers then?” “Mom, to think that you still think of this as your daughter’s house and even brought the one and only chicken that you raised here.

However, they’re rich.

I’m sure they won’t even care about that.

Forget it.

In my opinion, I think we had better forget about this and leave.

We better only get in touch with their family once we make a name for ourselves.

Otherwise, we had better not embarrass ourselves.

” Henry James’s words were like knives stabbing at his eldest sister’s heart.

Linda James—who had already calmed down—was once again taken in.

She turned to her family and promised, “Mom, Henry, Karen, just you wait.

I’m sure that I still have the power to make the decision on this.

It’s just a matter of jobs.

” With that, she marched up the stairs.

Without even knocking or considering her daughter’s feelings, she shoved the door open.

She then rushed in and stared at her daughter.

“How many shares do your dad and I have in the Larson Corporation?” Yvette Larson was stunned.

‘My mother is still at it?’ “I’m talking to you.

How many shares do your dad and I have in total?” “Dad is the eldest son of the Larson family, so he has 10% of the shares.

As his wife, you have 5%.

Together, you guys have 15%.

” “Alright, 15%.

Do I have any authority to hire employees then?” .

.

.

Yvette Larson was fuming—she didn’t want to answer that question.

“Let me ask you again.

With 15%, do I have the authority to hire anyone?” “Based on the company’s rules, anyone with more than 10% of the shares can hire employees for non-managerial roles without seeking permission from the board of directors.

” “Alright then.

I’ll hire my relatives—how’s that?” Continue_reading_ on MYB0XN0V E L.

COM “Mom, can you be more rational? Do you think any good will come out of this?” Yvette Larson was so incensed that her head hurt.

“Didn’t you say that I have the authority to do so? What, I’ll assign them to low-level jobs and not managerial positions.

Will that affect the company too?” ‘Mom has over-simplified the problem.

Does she really not know the personalities of those from the James family? Even if they are to enter at the lowest ranks, they will definitely use their relationship with me to make their presence known in the company.

Due to this, other employees naturally won’t dare to offend their boss’s relatives.

As such, there is only one solution to this problem—refusing it.

’ “Mom, I don’t want to talk to you.

Anyway, I’ll veto the decision as long as I’m the chairman of the company.

” “Boohoo.

” Linda James started sobbing miserably, even hitting her head against the wall.

“My life is so hard.

I was bullied at home when I was younger, and now that I’m married and have a daughter, I’m still being bullied by my own daughter.

Is this my fate? I’m not even asking for much.

All I want to do is make a small decision, yet I still can’t do even that.

” Of course, her relatives downstairs weren’t going to let this go either.

Her siblings shared a meaningful gaze before heading upstairs.

“Linda, don’t put Yvette in the spot.

We’ll just leave.

It’s true that we don’t have technical skills; it won’t be good for the company.

” “That’s right, Linda.

Karen and I are used to lazing around, so I understand how Yvette feels.

I’m sure she’s worried about us affecting the company.

” “Yes, we’re not asking for high positions.

We’re asking for jobs as security officers or janitors.

But since Yvette doesn’t agree to it, let’s not push her into a corner.

” The siblings worked in perfect harmony, and their eldest sister foolishly believed them once again.

“Yvette, look at how kind your uncle and auntie are being.

They don’t want to be leaders in the company; they just want to be security officers or janitors.

Can’t they do even that?” Linda James was fuming, and her heart ached as she looked at her daughter.

Yvette Larson didn’t even know what to say.

‘I know that it’s best if I simply keep mum.

Once I speak up, the Larson Corporation will be thrown into chaos.

However, it seems like my mother won’t accept my refusal either.

’ “Mom, are they really my uncle and auntie? What kind of relatives would kidnap their own family? I was nearly…” Yvette Larson hated the James family to their guts.

She hadn’t intended on bringing this up, but now that they were going to put on a pitiful act, she wasn’t going to back down either.

Unfortunately, Linda James didn’t buy into that and instead raised her voice.

“Yvette, who hasn’t made a mistake? Do you mean that you’ve never made a mistake? It’s true that your uncle and auntie have let you down, but that’s in the past.

Let’s not talk about it.

” Linda James was really downright foolish at times.

This was her daughter—her biological daughter—yet she was asking her daughter to forgive those who had hurt her so deeply for the sake of her own dignity.

It seemed like the mother-daughter duo was on the brink of a huge fight.

Finn Taylor finally stepped in.

“Mom, let’s not talk about it.

We’ll arrange for them to work at the company when we go back tomorrow.

Will that do?” Now that Linda James had gotten her way, she pushed her limits.

“Not just for your uncle and auntie.

Make sure you hire everyone in the family.

” Finn Taylor nodded.

“Alright.

Mom, Yvette is really exhausted, so can we rest now?” His mother-in-law finally nodded.

“Fine, go have a rest.

I’ll go make Yvette’s favorite fried chicken.

” She then left the room with the rest of the family.

Yvette Larson immediately shut the door and then turned to her husband.

“You know that they don’t mean well.

Why did you agree to it?” Yvette Larson wasn’t scolding him.

She merely felt bad for how he always made compromises for her sake.

But compared to Yvette Larson, the James family had been much more vicious to Finn Taylor.

Back in Los Angeles, they had looked down on him.

.

However, he had chosen to tolerate it for his wife’s sake.
