Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 1195 Liar 

Upon seeing the name on the screen, Soren’s heart leaped into his throat, not expecting Jim to call him at this time.

“Baby, I have an incoming call. Can you please give me back my phone?” Soren coaxed. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead from anxiety.

Veronica increasingly sensed that Soren was hiding something, so she didn’t return his phone. immediately. Instead, she answered the call.

“Hey, Soren, the car you borrowed is almost due! You’ll have to pay a penalty if you don’t return it within. two hours. Also, there can’t be any wear and tear on the front of the car, or you’ll be fined separately. Oh, and your watch is due too,” a man urged over the phone.

Before Soren could speak, it was already too late. Jim had spilled the beans about everything. Realizing the cat was already out of the bag, Soren helplessly covered his face.

Veronica almost lost it as she hung up the phone. Pointing at the Land Rover not far away, she asked Soren, “Who on earth was the person who just called you? Why is he saying that your car and watch are rented? Is this true, Soren? So you’ve been lying to me all along? You’re not the scion of a wealthy family and just pretending to be one by renting all these things to deceive me. Am I right?”

To Soren’s surprise, his secret was exposed much sooner than he expected. He had spent so much money renting a luxury car and a fancy watch just to impress Veronica and get her into bed. How could he be content with the situation when he hadn’t succeeded yet?

Wouldn’t the money he spent renting the car and watch be a waste? That would be such a loss.

“Baby, even though all of this is fake, my love for you is real. From the moment I first saw you, I fell in love with you. I know you are a princess on a pedestal, and I am just an ordinary man. I tried to make

myself appear worthy of you to be with you, so I spent money renting a car and a watch to hide my inferiority,” Soren said. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Veronica was still a bit angry that Soren had lied to her, but she wasn’t as furious as before.

Seeing Veronica’s anger had subsided slightly, Soren hurriedly added, “I’m just an ordinary worker, earning four to five thousand a month. I ate instant noodles for several months to buy a bag for you. I bought this bag to express my love for you. Veronica, can you give me a chance? I really love you.”

“I…” Veronica was deeply touched, but her goal was to find a scion of a wealthy family to marry, not a poor loser like Soren. So, she still wanted to dump him.

How dare he think of love when he doesn’t even have money!

Just as Veronica hesitated, unsure whether to dump Soren that instant, his phone pinged, indicating an incoming message on WhatsApp.

Soren’s heart lunged at the situation. Instinctively, he wanted to snatch the phone from Veronica’s hand, thinking it would be terrible if she saw something she shouldn’t.

Just as Soren was about to seize the phone, he felt someone grab his clothes from behind, preventing him from inching forward.

Looking back, Soren noticed the chairman of the Four Seas Corporation, Alex, was the person grabbing

his clothes.

In that brief moment of distraction, Veronica had already toggled to WhatsApp and saw the content of the message. Her previous guilt had been replaced with rage. She fiercely threw the phone at Soren’s

face.

The force she threw with wasn’t the least bit gentle. The phone hit Soren’s head, instantly causing a bump to form. The pain made him grit his teeth and grimace.
