  The next day, Shelton took the car keys Vera gave him to drive the BMW 740 to the front of the villa after breakfast and waited for Vera.

  

      It was the first time he had driven Vera to work in the past three years, so he was a little excited.

  

      He felt it was the beginning of a change in his relationship with Vera, so he was careful.

  

      Soon Vera, in her suit, and Kate, in her dress, walk out arm in arm.

  

      They were both tall and beautiful. One was aloof and the other was sassy.

  

      Vera was known as an "aloof beauty" in business and Kate was known as the "goddess of geeks" in school.

  

      It should be happy to have such a wife and sister-in-law, but in fact, Shelton was not happy at all but tired.

  

      His wife was indifferent to him and his sister-in-law scolded him and wanted him to divorce her sister soon. How could he be happy?


  After hanging up the phone, Weldon couldn't wait to call his parents and his aunt and uncle to his office.

  

      "Weldon, why are you so happy?"

  

      "Yes, Weldon, have you learned any news?"

  

      "Is it some good news?"

  

      Seeing Weldon happily rocking in his chair, Weldon's parents and his uncle and aunt were curious.

  

      "You all must have heard that Vera has a Golden Card from Citibank, right?" Weldon asked with a smile.

  

      "Yes, she's really something. She even managed to get a Golden Card. I wonder what big shot lent it to her," Weldon's aunt said.

  

      Weldon's father, Gary, said angrily, "Why are you happy? You won't become the president if she saves Nilson Group."

  

      "Dad, don't get me wrong. That's not why I'm happy." Weldon was helpless.

  

      "Then what are you happy about?" His mother, Natalie Nilson, asked.

  

 

  "Haha!"

  

      Hearing Shelton's words, Mr. Owen almost laughed his head off.

  

      "What? He said he was going to make me lose my job? Who does he think he is? How can a damn loser stand up to a manager?"

  

      "Haha!"

  

      All the employees in the room laughed and mocked Shelton.

  

      "He's just a damn live-in son-in-law. His mother-in-law takes all his money and he can only buy the cheapest cigarettes. How can he take the job of Mr. Owen who buys Marlboro?"

  

      "He delivered the fewest deliveries and was paid the least in the entire company. Mr. Owen was right to fire him. How dare he threaten to make Mr. Owen lose his job!"

  

      "Shame on him. He has to be home every day at noon and at night on time to make dinner or his mother-in-law will scold him. Who does he think he is? A damn loser!"

  

      "..."

  

      The man Shelton called Carl couldn't stand it anymore and stopped them. Then he persuaded Shelton, "Shelton, since Mr. Owen fired you, you should go. How could you possibly make him lose his job?"

  

      "Losing your job is no big deal. If you really can't find a job, I'll ask my friend's courier company if they're hiring. If they are, I'll introduce you to him."

  

      "Just hang up the phone and go. It's normal for Mr. Owen to fire you!"

  

      At that moment, Shelton got someone on the line.

  

      "Mr. Reed, what can I do for you?" Sarah asked.

  

      "I want Kyle Owen, the manager of Branch of FedEx Group in Chicago, to receive notice within five minutes that he's been fired."

  

      Beep...

  

      Shelton hung up the phone straight away.

  

      Sarah was the president of Branch of Tripod Group in the State of New York, and Tripod Group was the third largest shareholder in FedEx Group. He trusted Sarah to do the job.

  

      "Haha!"

  

      Once Shelton hung up the phone, everyone laughed again.

  

      "Look at this damn loser. He sounds like he's the son of the president of the headquarters in the State of New York. How ridiculous."

  

      "He said he would make Mr. Owen receive notice within five minutes that he's been fired. In his dreams!"

  

      "..."

  

      None of Shelton's colleagues believed he was capable of that and looked at him with contempt.

  

      Mr. Owen laughed, pointed at Shelton, and shouted, "If you can get me fired in five days, I'll get down on my knees and call you Dad, let alone five minutes!"

  

      "Then be prepared to get down on your knees and call me Dad," Shelton said lightly.

  

      "What the hell..." Kyle was about to start cursing.

  

      Suddenly!

  

      His phone rang.

  

      All of a sudden, it became quiet and everyone looked at Kyle.

  

      The call was bizarre.

  

      Kyle froze too.

  

      "Here it is. Answer it." Seeing Kyle frozen in place, Shelton smiled and reminded him.

  

      "There's no way you damn loser can get me fired!"

  

      Kyle pulled out his phone and saw that it was the president of the headquarters in the State of New York calling. He immediately picked up the phone and asked with a smile, "What can I do for you, sir?"

  

      However, as soon as he finished speaking, the person on the other end of the line scolded him, "What the fuck did you do to the big shot? The president of the headquarters called me and told me to fire you within three minutes or he would fire me. Now I officially inform you that you have been fired. Pack your things and get out now!"

  

      Beep...

  

      The phone was hung up.

  

      Clap!

  

      The phone slipped from Kyle's hand and fell to the ground.

  

      "What's going on?"

  

      All the colleagues were confused and looked at each other.

  

      Has Mr. Owen really been fired?

  

      When everyone was wondering, a woman in her thirties came out in her high heels and said, "Kyle, Mr. Lance from the headquarters in the State of New York just called me and told me that you have offended some big shot and have been fired. I'll take your place for now and help you with the paperwork. Come with me."

  

      "What!"

  

      All the colleagues were stunned and stared at Shelton in shock.

  

      Is Shelton the big shot?

  

      Just then, Kyle knelt down in front of Shelton and cried out, "Dad, don't fire me. I was wrong. I shouldn't have helped Haward make you think your wife was having an affair with him. I shouldn't have listened to Haward and fired you. I shouldn't have docked your salary. I beg you to forgive me. I have to support my parents and my girlfriend. I can't lose this job, Dad!"

  

      "Humph!"

  

      Shelton snorted. "Didn't it occur to you when you fired me and docked my salary that I have parents-in-law and a wife to support?"

  

      With that, Shelton looked at the woman and said, "I should have been paid over 600 dollars, but Kyle told the accountant to give me only 50 dollars. Get the accountant to give me the rest of the money in half an hour or you'll be fired too."

  

      "And," Shelton pointed to Carl and said, "Carl's nice. You can promote him."

  

      With that, Shelton strode away.

  

      "Yes, Mr... Mr. Reed!"

  

      The female manager bowed respectfully.

  

      Soon Shelton left in his Mercedes S65.

  

      "My God! Why did Shelton buy a Mercedes?"

  

      Carl was shocked.

  

      "What the hell!"

  

      The colleagues who had been mocking Shelton were stunned at this time.

  

      "Is Shelton the son of some big shot at headquarters? Is he here for an internship?"

  

      "It's possible." Some colleagues nodded their heads. "It looks like he's doing well so he bought a Mercedes. We just mocked him! We're nothing compared to him."

  

      ...

  

      Since Shelton didn't sleep last night, he went straight to the hotel to get a room and slept until his alarm went off at 5:00 p.m. before driving back.

  

      He parked his car on the side of the street near the neighborhood, walked to the supermarket to buy some groceries, and went home to cook dinner.

  

      Jessie and Kate came home and played on their phones on the couch.

  

      When dinner was almost ready at 6:00 p.m., Vera came home tiredly.

  

      "Vera, did you still not get the loan?" Jessie asked.

  

      Vera shook her head. "I went to a few banks today but they turned me down and scolded me."

  

      "You deserved it!" Jessie glared at Vera. "You wouldn't be so tired if you divorced that loser and married Mr. Black!"

  

      "Yeah, Vera," Kate said, "some of my girlfriends' brothers-in-law are rich and give them tens of thousands of dollars at a time. I'd love to have a brother-in-law like that."

  

      Vera was tired and sat right down on the couch. She didn't even have the strength to speak.

  

      "Kate, don't worry. This loser will get out of our house in two days!" Jessie gave Shelton, who was cooking in the kitchen, a vicious glare.

  

      "Okay, Mom, I'll put up with it for two more days." Kate gave a big smile and looked forward to it.

  

      ...

  

      After dinner, Shelton did the chores and bathed Tommy before coming back to the room, where Vera was still sitting on the edge of the bed in her pajamas. When he came in, she said, "You can help me wash my feet twice more. Go get the water."

  

      Shelton walked over to Vera instead of fetching water this time. He took out his Golden Card and handed it to her. "I want to wash your feet for the rest of your life."

  

      Vera froze. "What's this?"

  

      "My classmate gave it to me and said you could take it to Citibank and get a loan of 20 million dollars," Shelton said.

  

      "What! 20 million dollars?"

  

      Vera was stunned and immediately grabbed the Golden Card and looked at it carefully.

  

      Soon she exclaimed, "Oh my God! It's a Golden Card from Citibank! Nilson Group is saved!"

  

      "That's great!"

  

      She was happy as a child.

  

      Seeing her happy smile, Shelton also smiled and immediately pulled out his phone and snapped a picture of her.

  

      "What are you doing?" Vera stopped smiling and asked.

  

      Shelton scratched his head. "I've never seen you smile for the past three years. You look good when you smile, so I wanted to save this picture."

  

      Vera was silent.

  

      Turns out my smile can heal his broken heart. How silly.

  

      "I'm in my pajamas. Delete that picture and I'll send you another one," Vera said.

  

      "Okay."

  

      Shelton deleted the picture immediately.

  

      Vera gave a sly smile. "Come with me tomorrow to get the loan. I'll send it to you when it's done."

  

      Then she lay back down.

  

      Shelton froze for a long time and smiled. "Turns out she can be naughty, too."
