Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 895 Reason

While Jared wasn’t a great man in the past, he was an authentic businessman. He poured his sweat and blood into expanding his family, and his efforts paid off.

Thanks to his hard work, the Wallace family became one of the most prestigious families in Lumenopolis. Just as he was elated with his achievement, something strange happened.

Four years ago, one night after dinner, just as he was about to go for a stroll in his courtyard, he suddenly suffered massive pain coming from his skin. Then, he abruptly transformed into a green monster with scales.

The bodyguards following behind him were flabbergasted. They shouted in fear, and some even tried to attack Jared.

Thankfully, at that time, Jared had a very loyal subordinate called Austin Wallace, an orphan he had adopted.

Following Jared’s order, Austin murdered all the bodyguards who personally witnessed Jared’s monstrous transformation. Then, he sent Jared back to his room in secret.

During that period, the Wallace family was developing at a meteoric rate. If anyone learned the head of the Wallace family was a monster, the family businesses that he had worked hard to manage would be severely affected.

Because the Wallace family was Jared’s life’s work and pride, Jared refused to let the news of what happened leak out.
