Chapter 100 – Disdained Son-in-Law, Destined Riches

Before he could even finish his sentence, Claire smiled and said, “Thank you, Joe. I like it very much.”

“I am glad that you like it.”

Joe heaved a huge sigh of relief at this time.

The jade bracelet that he gave to Claire before this was in fact very precious and valuable. However, Claire did not wear it much.

In fact, Claire was a very simple and casual person. She did not care much about gold or silver jewelry and she did not like to wear anything that is too showy.

However, Joe could tell that Claire really seemed to like this handmade bracelet.

When Elaine saw that Claire was really impressed and in love with the broken handmade bracelet, she muttered under her breath, “It is not even gold or jade. It is just a bracelet made out of worthless shells and pearls. What is the use?”

Joe smiled because he did not want to argue with her.

Moreover, it was fine even if Claire did not know the value of the bracelet. If Claire were to find out that this was a magic bracelet that the rich would bid at least a billion dollar for, then she would not want to wear it at all.

After giving the bracelet to Claire, Joe went out to look for a courier in the city in order to mail the stun talisman and return the black card to Graham.

This way, he would at least have a satisfactory explanation for Graham.

…

At the Quinton family mansion, Jack was sitting on the sofa in the living room at this time and he had a very gloomy expression on his face. He had not said a single word since he entered the house.

His main purpose in making this trip to Aurous Hill was simply to get this treasure. He knew that the Holy Pearls of the Ocean was embedded in the clam and he knew that if he used the clam to make magical artifacts, he would be able to make a lot of money out of it. The value of the treasure was immeasurable!

However, he did not expect Joe to disrupt his plans. He could not stop gritting his teeth in anger.

Adam was standing beside Jack with his hands by his side in a respectful manner.

Mystery Court was a very well-known place and everyone in the Quinton family recognized Jack immediately. Therefore, all the members of the Quinton family came out to greet him respectfully.

Graham also smiled as he complimented Jack. “Welcome. I really did not expect you to make a trip to our humble house, Mr. Yaleman. The Quinton family is really fortunate to have you here today.”

Jack took a sip of the tea in his hands before he placed the cup on the table and spoke up.

“I ran into Mr. Quinton at the auction today and he invited me to come to your house to read your fortune for you.”

In fact, Graham was already prepared to teach Adam a lesson for sneaking out of the house. However, when he saw that Adam had invited the reputable Jack to their house, he was a little less furious at him.

“Mr. Yaleman, please take your time and make yourself at home.”

Jack nodded before he said, “If I am not wrong, the Quinton family has already experienced bad luck and misfortune over the past two years. I am afraid that someone in the family had contact with an ominous thing. One of you has also gotten into a bloody disaster last year. As for this year…”

After that, Jack glanced around the mansion with a mysterious expression on his face before he sighed. “I think that the Quinton family’s fortune is really at risk right now. If this situation persists, the entire Quinton family will be completely destroyed!”

Graham turned pale as soon as he heard Jack’s words. After that, he pleaded in a respectful manner, “Mr. Yaleman, you are indeed an expert from Mystery Court. The Quinton family has really experienced a lot of bad luck and misfortune in the past two years. Please help us!”

Everyone in the Quinton family was also surprised!

Jack was truly an expert in this matter.

Since he had not gotten a response from Joe, Graham was starting to get a little impatient.

When Jack appeared at his house today, Graham felt as though he had finally met his lifesaver! Therefore, he quickly asked, “Mr. Yaleman, do you have a solution?”

“Of course, there are ways.”

Jack replied slowly before he frowned suddenly. “However, it seems as though someone has used a magic trick to confuse your family lately. It seems as though whatever this person did has messed up the Feng Shui in this house and hastened the demise of the Quinton family. If you allow this person to continue to harm your family, I’m afraid that all the Quinton family members will die within half a year!”

“What? A trick on the family?”

Graham was stunned for a moment.

Joe was the only one who had done anything to change the Feng Shui of the Quinton family recently.

Graham was very convinced with Joe’s skills and abilities. Therefore, he quickly asked, “Mr. Yaleman, are you sure about this? There has indeed been someone who has recently helped to deal with the Feng Shui in my house. His name is Mr. Smith. However, it seems as though his methods had been working well so far. I don’t think that he’d cast a spell or magic trick on us.”

Jack snorted before he shouted, “There are some people who pretend to be God and they’re the best at deceiving ignorant people! If you are willing to continue trusting him, then I will just leave immediately!”

“Mr. Yaleman, please stay.” Graham panicked as he tried to stop Jack from leaving. “Could you please enlighten me, Mr. Yaleman? Could you please tell me what is wrong with his methods?”

At this time, Jack reached out his hand and pointed towards the hall without even raising his head. “Ask someone to bring me a bowl of water.”

Graham quickly ordered his servant to bring a bowl of clear water before them.

After that, Jack dipped his finger in the bowl of water before he placed a few talismans in the bowl of water. After he was done, Jack flicked the water at Graham’s eyes.

As soon as Graham opened his eyes, he was suddenly filled with fear as he backed away from Jack.

“Mr. Yaleman, what…what is this?”

Graham suddenly saw the Quinton family mansion covered in a strange layer of black smoke.

Furthermore, there was a wisp of lifeless gray smoke above the heads of the Quinton family members and all of their faces were as pale and lifeless as zombies!

Jack snorted before he said, “I am opening your eyes for you. You are looking at the future of the Quinton family. All of you will drop dead soon!”

Graham was so frightened that he fell onto the sofa before he muttered, “What should I do about this?”

“I guess it is fate that I am here today, so I will help you because this seems to be our destiny.”

Jack took out a peace talisman from his pocket before he handed it over to Graham.

When Graham took the peace talisman in his hand, he saw that it was glowing and there was a faint golden light emitting from it.

Moreover, the vision that Graham was seeing disappeared and everything returned to its original state as soon as Jack handed the peace talisman over to Graham.

“This…this…” Graham was breaking out in cold sweat at this time as he hurriedly said, “Mr. Yaleman, you really are incredible. Please save the Quinton family and help us to get out of this misfortune that we have landed ourselves into. I am willing to pay however much it costs to get rid of all this bad luck!”

“It is my mission to save people and give them peace. That is the reason I am here today.”

Jack continued speaking as he took out a dozen more peace talisman before he handed it over to Graham. “Give this to all of your family members and tell them to carry it on them at all times. This way, you will be able to get rid of all your bad luck.”

Graham took the peace talisman from Jack before he hesitated for a moment. “How can I repay you for your kindness, Mr. Yaleman?”

Jack waved his hand before he replied, “Helping someone to get rid of his misfortune is also a form of merit. I do not wish to accept any money from you today. However, if a swindler tries to convince you to spend a lot of money to purchase any magic weapon, you must remember to reject it at all cost.”

At this time, Adam, who was standing next to Graham, quickly spoke up. “Father, look! I already told you that Joe is a liar! He took our family’s money and he doesn’t even know what he’s doing! He must return us all the money that he took! Otherwise, I’ll sue him for fraud and make sure that he spends the rest of his life in prison!”

Aurora frowned as she thought about the entire situation. She did not know why but she felt as though Jack was the one who was lying to them.

Apart from being a little cold and having no EQ, Joe did not seem like a bad person. Moreover, Joe gave her a sense of security and warmth even without doing anything at all.
