The Amazing son in law Chapter 562
“High salary?” Aaron said with a smirk, curling his lips. “How high are you looking for? Would four to five thousand be enough to bring you on board as a chef?” ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Find1Novel.net
Wanting to impress his father-in-law, Jake replied, “Dad, since Charlie is your old friend’s son-in-law, I should give him some extra perks. Alright, I’ll offer you ten thousand a month!”
Charlie chuckled lightly and replied, “I appreciate the offer, but I’m not interested in money.”
Aaron’s brow furrowed in confusion. “If you don’t want money, then what do you want?”
“Whoever hires me must marry his daughter to me. Take my father-in-law as an example: he wanted to hire me for household chores, and in return, he married his beloved daughter to me. So, Aaron, if you want to hire me, you’ll have to marry your daughter to me as well!”
Furious, Aaron’s face turned red as he shouted, “You’re incredibly ungrateful! I’m being generous by offering you a job, and this is how you repay me?!”
Jake glared at Charlie, anger simmering in his eyes. “Listen, my father-in-law has only one daughter, and she’s my wife! Watch your words, or I’ll make you regret it!”
Charlie laughed. “You two are quite amusing. Did I ever ask you for a job? It was you who approached me first. Since you were eager to offer me a position, I laid out my terms. Just say yes if you agree, or no if you don’t. Isn’t that how it works?”
Jake fumed, “Why would you make such a ridiculous request? You’re just looking for trouble!”
Charlie replied calmly, “I’m not looking for trouble. These have always been my conditions. To be honest, I’ve been married for over three years now, and during that time, I’ve done all sorts of household chores—cooking, cleaning, shopping. That’s my job, and my compensation is my wife. If you want to hire me, you have to meet my terms. If you can’t, then just be quiet. It’s a simple exchange, really. Can’t you grasp that?”
“You…” Aaron and Jake stood there, speechless and dumbfounded.
Charlie was correct.
He hadn’t asked for a job; it was they who had approached him with their proposals. Charlie had merely outlined his conditions for accepting the job, so why were they so upset?
As tensions rose, the crowd quickly intervened, saying, “Hey, we’re all here for the reunion. Let’s enjoy ourselves and not fight over trivial matters.”
Aaron and Jake were visibly agitated as the situation shifted against them, but they couldn’t find a way to calm their anger.
After all, they had initiated the argument, and everyone present had witnessed it. If they blamed Charlie, they would appear petty in front of the others.
On the other hand, Jacob was thrilled!
He had no idea his son-in-law was so clever and quick-witted, managing to defend himself while silencing Aaron and Jake. He gave Charlie an excited thumbs-up.
Jake shot a resentful glare at Charlie.
Initially, he had planned to subtly showcase his success at his father-in-law’s reunion, as he was the owner of a soon-to-be-listed company. However, Charlie had unexpectedly turned the tables on him, trapping him in a situation of his own making.
It was a bitter pill to swallow, and he knew he had to find a way to regain control!
