The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 611

Elaine knew that if she was busted, she could be charged for gambling. Worse still, if her husband and daughter knew that she had gambled with such a large amount of money, they would be infuriated. 1

She would be condemned for what she had done.

Although the money was gone now, at least she did not end up worse than those people who were sent to the coal mine for the next one to two decades. 2

Yet, she couldn't help feeling depressed with the money and bangle lost.

She could still explain herself about the broken bangle. She had taken the broken pieces with her anyway, she could tell her family that the bangle broke. 2 What explanation should she come up with regarding the money? 4

Jacob did not have his own bank account. All the household money was in her own hands, including the money her husband earned from reselling the antiques. 1

Now, she had lost all the money to gambling. If Jacob were to replace out about it, he would be extremely angry at her!

Elaine was sighing in depression and agitation. She

was regretful about what happened today.

On the way home, Albert called Charlie and said," Master Wade, I personally watched the team departing to the highway and they are on the way to Erith now. I should have gone there myself and handled the situation, but I have some business to tend to at Heaven Springs tonight. Some bigshot reserved the Diamond Suite for a dinner banquet, so I need to go and take a look..."

Then, he added, "But don't worry, I'll fly there tomorrow to check on things. The convoy will be there when I arrive in the afternoon." 2

Charlie asked curiously, "Do you have noble guests tonight at your restaurant? Who is it?"

"The Webb family of the South Region, that is, Donald Webb and his son, Sean."

Charlie frowned in confusion. It has been several days, why hadn't they left yet? 1

Did they intend to stay at Aurous Hill and dig him out? 2

After all, he was the reason why Kian Webb had to eat poop every hour. 4

The Webb family must have realized that there must be a hidden agenda behind this, and so, they have stayed back in search of the truth. 2 However, Charlie was not worried at all. No matter how powerful the Webb family was, they were not on par with the Wade family. Besides, even without mentioning the Wade family's name, the Webb family couldn't touch him with his current power and strength. 2

If they insisted on targeting him, he had no choice but to counterattack them. 1

Hence, Charlie said into the phone, "Okay, noted. Get busy, then."

"Okay, Master Wade!"

They almost arrived home when he ended the call.

Elaine said, "Pull the car over, TH drive back by myself. You can walk home, I don't want your dad and Claire to see us coming back together!" 3 Charlie nodded indifferently. He stopped the car by the road and got off. He could visit the market and buy some ingredients for dinner. 1

When he was at the market, he called Jacob to see if the party at Glorious Club was over.

Jacob told Charlie that he had just returned home after the party and thanked Charlie profusely for amending his honor tonight. 3

When Charlie returned home from the market, Jacob was sitting in the living room, humming delightfully while holding a cup of tea. 2

He grinned from ear to ear when he saw Charlie coming in. "Hey, my dear son-in-law, welcome home!"
