Tame Me My Brother -in-Law Chapter 13
At exactly nine o’clock in the morning, while I was sitting behind my
mahogany desk reviewing the monthly cost accounting report of Anderson
Corporation, I observed that there were some differences between the
reports of the costs of the materials and the costs of the output.
“What the fucking hell is this!?” I yelled, and my rage immediately grew to the
point that I had to dial the number of the head of the financial department,
Mr. Hunt to know what happened.
In my entire life, I have been a man who has been competitive but impatient.
I wanted everything, especially my businesses and the people working for
me, to be well–organized and excellent.
“Good morning, Mr. Anderson…” the middle–aged man answered the phone
cheerfully and I grimaced since I was not in the mood to greet him back. “Is
there any-”

“Mr. Hunt!” I interrupted him off quickly. “I need you to immediately send the
members of the internal audit team to the materials department. When I
compared their reports, I found some inconsistencies, and what the hell?! C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Where can I see the report that the Warehouse department compiled after
the most recent inventory? This is not an exhaustive report by any means! I
need to know if there will be enough of the necessary materials for the next
production that we are working on. Dammit! It’s possible that these
individuals are stealing metals and aluminum, chopping it up, and then
selling the pieces at the local junk shops.”
“Y–yes, Sir…” I became completely still as he stuttered. Even when I was very
upset with him, he never stumbled over his words, toward me. “I will get them
audited as soon as possible.”
“If they can’t justify these discrepancies, I swear! Everyone working in that
department is going to lose their jobs!” I inhaled deeply and let out a huff as I
did so.
“O–okay, sir! I’ll let them know as soon as I can.” The tremor in Mr. Hunt’s voice

was audible. “Uh… anything else, sir?”
<98%
“Yes!” I yelled, and I could almost see him grimacing even though he was on
the other end of the line. “Mr. Hunt, I noticed that your monthly report
contained a significant number of altered items. Tell your employees to really
put their all into what they’re doing. It’s aggravating to look over the report
and notice a lot of corrections. Minimize it! Or even better, make it absolutely
flawless!”
“Yes, Yes. I… I’m very sorry about that, Mr. Anderson. I will let my team know.”
I hung off the phone and went back to looking over the upcoming monthly
report from the accounting department when I heard someone knock on my
door. I chose to ignore it and carry on with working, but shortly thereafter… the
door suddenly opened, with Jason showing up.
“What do you want?” I queried him without turning my head to look at him
because I was already aware of his identity. He was the only one who is
permitted to come to my office without my first giving him permission to do
So.

Chapter 13 Investigate
“I already have the information about the lady we saw at the Angelwood
Hospital that looked like Brylee, Sir…” He responded as he handed me a
brown envelope. “The private investigator just forwarded that to me.”
I heaved a sigh, stopped working, and stretched out my hand in an attempt
to grab the brown packet that was in his hand. Jason was about to turn his
heels and leave the room but I stopped him. “Stay…”
He gave me a nod before moving to the chair in front of my desk and taking
a seat there. He then watched as I opened the envelope and removed the
documents from it. I quickly began to read what was written on the page,
focusing only on the most important words.
The name of the woman is Celine Lauren, who was currently attending St.
John’s University on Staten Island and had reached the age of twenty–one.
She is Brylee’s twin sister and their parents are Julio and Sandra Lauren. They
got married here in New York but after only four years of being together, they
got divorced due to the wife’s infidelity. It was discovered that she was
having an affair with one of her co–workers.

As I turned the page to the following section, I noticed a change in the
expression on my face.
Following the conclusion of their divorce, the court decided that each parent
should have custody of their own child. Because Sandra had been disloyal to
her husband, she had not received any alimony during their marriage. And
then she moved to Staten Island with her lover and Celine..
Celine’s poor background led to her engaging in risky behaviors such as
stealing from the school, cheating on her partners, and having two abortions
while she was still a high school student. Her personal life was a complete
and utter mess, and she deceived others by putting on the appearance of a
shy and timid woman while also adopting friendly alter egos. She used her
innocent face to steal money from people.
Before a year had passed, her mother Sandra Lauren was given a diagnosis
of stomach cancer, which caused her lover to leave her. The two of them had
a hard living their lives before Brylee came along to help them. Half a year
ago, Celine had stolen someone’s husband in their place and when the wife

found out about it, they decided to sell their house in Staten Island and
moved here in the city.
When I completed reading the findings of the investigation, I didn’t know that
my hands had already balled up into fists while I was holding the paper. I
clenched my jaw before I ripped the paper in my hands and threw them on
the carpeted floor.
“Sir, I think the information written here are inaccurate…” Jason said as he
swiftly picked up the pieces of paper. “I’ve met the girl and her personality
was nothing like what was described in this article. She wouldn’t help me if
she’s…”
“Enough, Jason!”
“But Sir-”
“I said enough!” I yelled at him. “I have no interest in learning any more
information about that woman at this point. You can leave now…”

SOC……
“What?” When Brylee finally got back to their mansion, the first thing she did
was go straight to her mother and hug her. “Why would Seb hire a private
investigator to dig into Celine’s background?”
“Sebastian must have seen Celine somewhere. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have
checked for her information!” Sasha said while she was relaxing on the couch
and enjoying a cup of coffee.
When Brylee heard this, she immediately grew worried and began to pace
back and forth across the living room. “He must have seen her in the hospital
that day, Mommy. What should I do now? Will he find out that she pretended
to be me that night?”
Sasha set her cup down on the coffee table and smirked as she watched her
stepdaughter looking so anxiously. “You shouldn’t panic, sweetheart… you are
the daughter of a rich and powerful family. You should show to everyone that
you can keep your cool and no one can destroy you!”

“But mom…”
“Don’t act like that if you want to make a good impression over that bitch!”
Brylee always knew who the bitch her mom was referring to.
“I…I’m sorry,” she mumbled. “I’m just a bit strung out. You should know that in
two days, Seb and I are going to get engaged, and I have no idea what I’m
going to do if something goes wrong…”
She looked at her stepdaughter and nodded before gesturing for her to join
her on the sofa. “It has not been an easy journey for any of us to get this far.
To find a virgin who was willing to do the job so that we could convince
Sebastian that you’re pure and innocent for him to marry you was so tough.
So, how can I let anything happen to you, my dear?”
She gave Brylee’s blonde hair a gentle stroke before she continued.
“Don’t worry… Seb won’t find anything. I’ve already prepared the information
he needed.”

“What do you mean?” Brylee’s expression revealed that she was perplexed
as she gazed up at her. “Are you trying to tell me that all of the documents
have been forged?”
