The Amazing son in law Chapter 816
“Okay.” Charlie felt a wave of relief wash over him.
Just two minutes after hanging up the call, his phone buzzed again. A text message appeared: “Dear Mr. Charlie Wade, a total of $21,900,000,000.00 has been credited to your black card account at 15:06 today.”
With the money finally back in his possession, Charlie began to relax. Find the newest release on Find★Novel.net
But then, a serious thought struck him.
Elaine had taken his card, guessed his password, and had seen the staggering balance.
What would happen if Claire found out? How could he possibly explain this to her?!
Charlie’s expression turned increasingly grim.
‘Elaine, I’ve tolerated your terrible behavior for so long because you are Claire’s mother, but you’ve crossed the line today.’
‘I won’t let this slide!’
With determination, he dialed Isaac’s number once more.
As soon as the call connected, Isaac’s respectful voice came through. “Mr. Wade, how can I assist you?”
Charlie replied, barely containing his anger, “My troublesome mother-in-law has taken my card and drained my account, totaling 21.9 billion. I want to teach her a lesson. Please coordinate with the appropriate department to set up a demonstration for me.”
“Absolutely, Mr. Wade!”
Charlie detailed his plans to Isaac, emphasizing, “Everything must go smoothly. I won’t tolerate any mistakes, understand?”
“Yes, Mr. Wade!”
***
At the Citibank VIP lounge, Elaine was obsessively refreshing her banking app, but her account still showed a dismal thirty-two cents.
She was eagerly waiting for the 21.9 billion to be transferred to her account, dreaming of effortlessly reaching the heights of luxury!
However, ten minutes passed with no sign of the funds increasing.
Frustrated, she considered berating Dorian, the manager, when her phone rang with a call from a friend.
“Hey, Elaine, do you want to join us for a facial tomorrow?”
Elaine scoffed, “A facial? What do you mean? Who am I to go for a facial? What kind of nonsense is that?”
The woman’s tone shifted immediately. “What do you mean by that?”
“I mean, going to a beauty salon for a facial is for people like you. As for me? I’m planning to buy the entire beauty salon for myself! I’m done associating with your kind!”
“Elaine, are you out of your mind? You want to buy a beauty salon? You? It’s far too early for such daydreams!”
Elaine smirked, shaking her head in amusement. “I have nothing to say to you poor people. Believe me, I’m not the same Elaine you used to know. The money I have is beyond your wildest dreams!”
The woman retorted with disdain, “I think it’s time you seek help!” and abruptly hung up.
Elaine brushed it off, feeling as if she were floating in the clouds, euphoric and carefree. It was best to distance herself from those less fortunate; she found it tiresome to think they might ask her for money once she became rich.
Sipping her Blue Mountain coffee, she glared at Dorian and barked, “Hey, hurry up! What is taking so long? The money isn’t in my account yet! Just know, with one phone call, you could be out of a job tomorrow!”
Dorian was growing irritated with Elaine’s arrogance but held his composure, saying, “Ma’am, please be patient; the headquarters needs time to process the transaction!”
“I don’t care! Find out what’s going on, or I’ll make sure you regret it!”
