Elaine figured that Charlie the loser wouldn’t dare to disobey her if she asked for the money from him directly.
As soon as she got the money from him, she could invite her friends for a meal at a luxurious restaurant followed by a spa and facial treatment. This was what they called the upper-class lifestyle.
Charlie shook his head at her request. “Mom, I can’t give you the money.”
“Why not?” Elaine frowned, perplexed.
“Dad is now in charge of the household fund and expenses. If you want to use the money, you’ll have to get Dad’s approval first.”
“What do you say?!” Elaine growled hastily, “My words don’t count anymore, do they?”
Charlie nodded. “For anything regarding money, you’ll have to go through Dad first.”
“Hey, don’t you dare use Jacob to overpower me! I’m your mother-in-law and if I ask you for money, you have to give it to me, no questions asked!”
Charlie smiled. “Of course, I can give you the money if Dad says okay, I can even give you all of it!”
“You…” Elaine confronted Charlie in great dismay, “Oh, this is how you want to do it, right? You challenge me, huh!”
“Mom, Dad will be in charge of the money in the future. You said this yourself, not me. I’m just following your instruction.”
“Argh, stop with your bullshit! Give me the money quickly! Do you hear me?”
Charlie spread his hands helplessly. “Sorry, Mom, if Dad doesn’t give me the permission, then I won’t give the money to you even if you point a gun at me.”
Then, he turned and walked back into the villa, ignoring her.
Elaine glared at his back. She would kill him right now if her eyes were equipped with laser guns!
She wanted to go to Jacob and asked him to talk to Charlie, but gave up on second thoughts. She knew very well that Jacob would not comply with her request.
The old man was even cockier than Charlie was now. Not only did he refuse to listen to her and obey her orders but he also dared to challenge her and even intended to divorce her! If she were to go and beg him now, it would be asking for an insult!
Elaine was grumpy and indignant. She didn’t know what to do next.
Her friends were still waiting for her reply in the message group. She was embarrassed and unwilling to give up all the entertainment plans just like this.
At this moment, Charlie was cleaning up in the kitchen while Jacob was sitting on the Lexington sofa left by his father, sipping tea and reading the newspaper.
An abrupt thought struck Elaine’s mind as she stood by the door, looking at them.
Charlie had engaged in deceitful jobs under the guise of Feng Shui and had fooled so many rich and influential people that he could even earn two million dollars in a single job. Who knew how much more money he had in his pocket?
Maybe he had actually made three million dollars from the job, who knew?
As she thought of the possibility, she immediately remembered Charlie buying two BMWs.
Charlie bought those cars with his own money! Both cars were worth nearly one million dollars!
In other words, Charlie had the habit of keeping his own pocket money and he kept a lot!
If she could find his card and tried out his password combination, she could get all his money in her own hands!
She didn’t even expect him to have one million. One hundred thousand dollars would be enough for her to entertain herself and her friends for some time!
A sheepish and vicious grin appeared on Elaine’s face. She decided to steal his card!
