The Amazing son in law Chapter 786
At that moment, Jacob nodded repeatedly, fully aware of the challenges that came with having a cunning woman in the house. It felt like he was constantly walking on eggshells.
With two shrewd women under the same roof, he knew it would be anything but a home.
Thus, he steeled himself and said, “Mom, why don’t you just give me your bank account number? I can transfer the money to you right now. If not, you can take your furniture back, and we can have the porters move it out of the villa immediately.”
Lady Wilson’s anger flared as she jabbed her finger at Jacob. In a fit of rage, she lunged at him, attempting to slap his face. Luckily, Jacob reacted quickly, stepping back just in time to avoid her strike.
Trembling with fury, Lady Wilson seethed at Jacob’s defiance. What frustrated her even more was the thought of not being able to enjoy living in such a grand villa. It felt as if a thousand needles were pricking her skin with discomfort.
Yet, there was little she could do at that moment.
Glowering at Jacob, she ground her teeth and declared, “Fine! You truly are my wonderful son! From now on, we will have absolutely nothing to do with each other! I don’t want you at my funeral, even if I were to die!”
Elaine chimed in, “That sounds perfect; it would save us a lot of hassle.”
“You…”
Lady Wilson coughed violently, then pulled out her bank card, thrusting it at Jacob. “Transfer the money to me now! I want 1.21 million dollars!” she ordered, her voice rising.
Elaine frowned, questioning, “Why should we send you 1.21 million dollars? Didn’t we agree on 1.2 million earlier?”
Lady Wilson retorted angrily, “Do you think I don’t need to pay for the trucks and the movers?”
Elaine responded coolly, “What does that have to do with us? Why should we pay you extra for your arrangements to move your furniture? Should I also reimburse you for the toilet paper you used this morning?”
Lady Wilson gritted her teeth, fuming. “You little brat! You’re a cunning woman! I’ll make you regret this!”
As she spoke, she reached out to grab Elaine.
Unlike Jacob, Elaine was not one to hold back. She swatted Lady Wilson’s hand away and retorted coldly, “What do you think you’re doing? Trying to hit me? Sure, I’m cunning, but so are you! You’re just an old shrew trying to create chaos in my own home! Do you want me to slap you right now?”
After years of being belittled by the old woman, Elaine had been waiting for a chance like this to stand up for herself. Today felt like a long-awaited opportunity for revenge.
Lady Wilson was taken aback, never expecting Elaine to confront her so boldly. Anger boiled within her, but she found herself powerless in this situation.
Meanwhile, Jacob hastily pulled out his cell phone to transfer the money to Lady Wilson. Within moments, he informed her, “Mom, I’ve sent you 1.21 million dollars. Please check your account and leave if everything is in order.”
Elaine interjected, “Do you have money to waste? You could have given me that ten thousand dollars instead for a few spa visits! Why give it to her? It’s like throwing money away for no reason!”
Jacob gestured for her to be quiet. “Okay, enough already.”
Just then, Lady Wilson received a notification on her phone. Pulling it out, she saw the 1.21 million dollars had arrived in her account. Glaring at Elaine, she warned, “You, Parker! Watch your back. I’ll see to it that you regret this!”
With that, Lady Wilson turned to Harold and Wendy. “Let’s go!” she commanded.
Relief washed over Harold and Wendy. They had been worried that Jacob might buckle under pressure and let the old lady move in with them, which would have been disastrous for their family.
Fortunately, the old lady didn’t get her way! Newest update provided by f͟i͟n͟d͟n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟.net
