Son-In-Law Madness

Chapter 865 Rare Jewel

“It's just a spirit stone mine. If you say it's yours, so be it. What's there to brag about?”

Ezra and Jairo snorted before leaving the base.

Even though they had no idea who Donald was, they could tell from his clinical skills that they stood no chance of obtaining the spirit stone mine.

After ordering his subordinates to clean up the surroundings of the mine, Raphael served Donald a cup of coffee at the base. He sang Donald's praises with a chuckle. “You're amazing, Donald. I was sure that there would be no problem too difficult for you to solve if you stepped in!”

“Enough of bootlicking. Hurry up and check if there's anything else. I'm heading home if there isn't.”

“No, wait.” Raphael rubbed his hands. “My subordinates are still conducting a search across the entire island. I wouldn't want you to make another trip if there was another monster hiding somewhere, would I?”

Raphael's words left Donald no choice but to wait patiently.

Since he had nothing better to do, he began chatting with Raphael.

“I have no plans to take that monster's corpse back with me. Do you have a research team here that can deal with it?”

“Of course I do. You're clearly underestimating my influence now. That said, what's so special about the monster's corpse?”

Donald threw Raphael a glance and explained, “I know you have no interest in its body, but aren't you the least bit curious about why it appeared around your spirit stone mine? Besides, the monster is radioactive and can disappear into the void. If you don't find out more about it now, more people will die the next time another one appears.”

Donald's mention of the potential loss of life caused Raphael to take the matter seriously.

He's right. The spirit stone mine may be important, but human life is just as important.

“Don't worry, Donald. I'll have my men work on it right away. Once the research report is out, I'll inform you immediately.”

No sooner had Raphael spoken than one of his subordinates ran in from outside.

“Boss, we found something.”

The subordinate opened a wooden box to reveal a porcelain-white jewel.

The sight of the jewel caused Raphael's eyes to widen in awe.

“I've dealt with jewels for so many years. I've never seen anything quite like this.” He thought for a moment before suggesting, “Donald, since you're the one who killed the monster, this jewel will be my gift to you. You can bring it back to your wife.”

Taking the jewel in his hand, Donald could somehow feel that something was amiss.

“All right. I'll take it with me, then.”

After ensuring that there were no more monsters on the island, Donald and Raphael flew back to Pollerton in a helicopter. Then, Raphael drove Donald back to his mansion.

Donald didn't bring the jewel home. He ordered Billy to take it to Quadfield for research instead.

Given that the monster was radioactive, there was a chance the jewel shared the same property. Giving it to Jennifer would end up harming her. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

After unlocking the mansion door and entering the living room, Donald was greeted by the sight of Jennifer and Geraldine watching TV on the couch, while Hannah was sitting at her desk, busy working on her laptop.

“You're back. Where did you guys go last night?”

Jennifer gave Geraldine a pat on her back, and the latter approached Donald, sniffing him like a dog.

“Jenny, there's no cigarette smell on him and neither is there the scent of women's perfume.”

“Hmm? Darling, be honest with me. Where did you go last night?” Jennifer asked with a teasing look on her face.
