The Amazing son in law Chapter 807

Elaine was certain that Charlie, whom she considered a loser, wouldn’t dare to refuse her if she asked him for money directly.

Once she had the cash in hand, she could treat her friends to a lavish dinner at a high-end restaurant, followed by a relaxing spa day and facial treatment. This was what they referred to as the upper-class lifestyle.

Charlie shook his head at her request. “Mom, I can’t give you the money.”

“Why not?” Elaine asked, her brow furrowing in confusion.

“Dad is now in charge of the household expenses. If you want to use any funds, you’ll need to get his approval first.”

“What do you mean?!” Elaine snapped, her frustration boiling over. “So my words don’t matter anymore?”

Charlie nodded. “When it comes to money, you have to go through Dad.”

“Don’t you dare use Jacob to intimidate me! I’m your mother-in-law, and if I ask for money, you should give it to me without hesitation!”

Charlie smiled slightly. “I can give you the money if Dad agrees. In fact, I could give you all of it!”

“You…” Elaine seethed, confronting Charlie with a mix of anger and disbelief. “Is this how you want to play it? You’re challenging me!”

“Mom, you said it yourself—Dad is in charge of the finances now. I’m just following what you’ve instructed.”

“Enough of this nonsense! Just give me the money already! Do you hear me?”

Charlie raised his hands in a gesture of helplessness. “Sorry, Mom, but if Dad doesn’t give me permission, I can’t give you the money, even if you threaten me.”

With that, he turned and walked back into the villa, leaving Elaine seething behind him.

She glared at his retreating figure, imagining what she would do if she had the power to shoot lasers from her eyes!

She considered going to Jacob to ask him to talk to Charlie, but quickly dismissed the idea. She knew Jacob wouldn’t be inclined to help her out.

The old man had become more arrogant than Charlie. Not only did he ignore her commands, but he also dared to stand up to her, even hinting at a divorce! Approaching him now would feel like a humiliating defeat.

Frustrated and indignant, Elaine found herself at a loss for what to do next.

Meanwhile, her friends were still waiting for her response in their message group. She felt embarrassed and was unwilling to abandon her plans for entertainment just like that.

In the kitchen, Charlie was tidying up while Jacob lounged on the Lexington sofa, sipping tea and perusing the newspaper.

An idea suddenly struck Elaine as she stood at the door, watching them.

Charlie had been involved in dubious Feng Shui jobs, conning many wealthy and influential clients. He could easily earn two million dollars from a single job. Who knew how much money he really had stashed away?

What if he had actually made three million dollars? The thought was tantalizing.

Her mind drifted to the two BMWs Charlie had purchased.

He bought those cars with his own money! Each was nearly a million dollars!

This meant Charlie had a habit of keeping a significant amount of pocket money!

If she could find his card and crack the password, she could access all that money!

She didn’t even need a million—just a hundred thousand dollars would be more than enough to enjoy some time with her friends!

A sly and cunning grin spread across Elaine’s face. She made up her mind: she would steal his card! Thɪs chapter is updated by Find★Novel.net
