The Untouchable Son-In-Law: The Master Peregrine-Chapter 400 - The Truth

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

What Linda James said could’ve been the truth if someone else had said so. While it was true that couples loved each other dearly, it couldn’t compare to a parent’s love. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

However, this wasn’t a typical family.

Linda James was the clearest about herself. She was an exceptionally selfish and arrogant woman that had even forced her daughter to get a divorce for her own self-interests. Yet, she accused Finn Taylor of causing the divorce, saying that the couple never would’ve separated if he didn’t agree to it.

But she had never considered that she was the one who had proposed the divorce in the first place. She was the one who had guilt-tripped Finn Taylor, saying that Melanie Taylor would eventually try to kill Yvette Larson if they didn’t get divorced.

How was Finn Taylor supposed to refuse the divorce when his mother-in-law was threatening him with his wife? If he were to refuse, she would definitely spread news that he didn’t even care about his wife’s safety.

Other mothers-in-law may not be vicious enough to do such a thing, but there was no question that Linda James was perfectly capable of that.

Finn Taylor had been forced into a corner and had no other choice but to divorce his wife, yet Linda James was now saying that he had done so because he didn’t truly love his wife.

In fact, her values were so warped that she felt that Finn Taylor had led her daughter astray.

‘Are you angry that Yvette said that you lost your mind? Do you feel embarrassed because you’re being scolded by your own daughter? But have you ever thought about why this is happening? It’s your own fault! You may not like me, and I can even leave aside the divorce. Even if you don’t like your own daughter, I was the one who gave you everything you have now. How could you go help my enemy? How shameless can you get? Are you still human?’

“Tell me. What did you tell Melanie Taylor, or what intel did you get from her?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t know Melanie Taylor, and I’ve never talked to her. What evidence do you have?”

“Mom, we wouldn’t question you without evidence. Whether it’s photos and videos or whether we personally saw you, we know for a fact that you walked into Melanie Taylor’s hotel. There’s no point trying to lie to us. We’re a family, so we won’t blame you. Let’s think of a way to resolve this matter so that we can live together in the future. But if you remain so stubborn, I don’t know how we’re going to live together in the future.”

“Live together? Do you think that I would agree to you two reconciling and living together as though nothing happened? That’s impossible. Yvette, I’ll kill myself in front of you if you dare to remarry Finn Taylor!”

“Mom, don’t say such things in the future. It doesn’t do us any good. Do you think I’d trust you? You’re a coward who shies away from all sorts of danger. Do you think you would have enough courage to commit suicide?”

Now that she had been exposed by her daughter, Linda James was indignant. She had lost all dignity.?‘This is all Finn Taylor’s fault!’?

“Finn Taylor, why did you have to come back? Did I really treat you badly? Do you hate me that much? Do you want me to die, or do you want to kill me? Come on—you can take my life. Just kill me and end everything now. I don’t want to see you guys anyway. I don’t understand why you’re back; you have nothing to do with our family anyway. You’ve already divorced Yvette. You signed the papers. Since that’s the case, why are you back? Are you trying to let me know that my daughter would rather listen to you than me?”

“Mom, there’s no point in saying such things now. I still think of you as my mom, but I can’t deny that I need some time to recover from learning about your interaction with Melanie Taylor. If you tell us everything, we’ll forget about this whole incident. I won’t punish you either. But if you keep everything from us, it won’t benefit any of us—including your daughter. Didn’t you just proclaim that you’ve done everything for her sake? Don’t you see how worried your daughter is? Do you know what she’s worried about? She’s worried about what you told her, what kind of mission you received from that woman, and what you want to do to me. That’s all I want to know. Is it that difficult to tell me about it?”

Linda James opened her mouth and was about to say something when she stopped herself.

To be honest, Finn Taylor’s words had stirred something within her heart.?‘I know that Melanie Taylor looks down on me and that I’ll have to stand on the same side as Yvette eventually. Therefore, I’ll have to reveal these secrets in the end. However, I can’t bring myself to apologize to my son-in-law! Besides, he’s not just an average son-in-law—he’s a matrilocal son-in-law! That’s a huge difference. He’s just a leech in our family. We spent good money supporting him! We paid for his life so that their children wouldn’t take his surname. How can I apologize to someone like that? It would be better to just kill me!’

“Then, tell me. Don’t you know how Finn is after interacting with him for three years? Has Finn ever taken revenge on us? All we want to know is the truth so that we can plan for the future.. It’s not like we’re punishing you for it.”
