The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 648

After that, Claire looked at Elaine before she said, "Mom, can you stop making things difficult for dad already? He does not usually spend much money anyway. Why are you confronting him now that he simply wants to treat some of his friends to dinner?"

Elaine said, "I am simply trying to save some money for the family! Are we the kind of family who should be spending twenty thousand dollars just for a meal?" 5

After that, Elaine glared at Jacob before she said, "No matter what it is, you will have to give me the money today, whether you want to or not!"

In truth, Claire already knew what her mother was up to.

She knew that her mother was just a very materialistic person who was mad about money. If her father refused to give her mother the money today, it would be impossible for him to leave the house, i

At this time, Claire quickly cut in. "Mom, stop making things difficult for dad. You want ten thousand dollars, right? I will give it to you." i

"Okay!" Elaine replied in excitement, "Then you'd better transfer the money over to me right away!"

Claire nodded slightly before she took out her cell phone and transferred ten thousand dollars over to Elaine. 5

Elaine quickly turned on her cell phone to check that she had already received the money that Claire had transferred over to her. She could not help but grin to herself when she saw that she had already received the money. 3

After that, Elaine quickly texted her group of five friends: [Sisters! I am joining all of you for the facial later in the afternoon!]

Someone in the group asked: [Eh! Didn't you say that you had something on in the afternoon earlier in the morning?]

Elaine hurriedly replied: [I was planning to go shopping at first, but my legs are hurting a little. So, I decided not to go shopping and to go to the beauty salon to do some facials and relax instead!] Claire could not help but sigh helplessly when she saw the look on her mother's face after receiving the money from her. After all, Claire did not know that her mother was already left with nothing as she had already lost their entire family's savings. 1

At this time, Charlie's cell phone started vibrating on the dining table. 1

It was a phone call from Jasmine.

Charlie quickly picked up the phone to answer the call, and Jasmine's gentle and pleasant voice sounded over the other end of the line, "Master Wade, I will arrive at your house in less than ten minutes. When will it be convenient for you to come out?"

Charlie replied, "Please wait for me for a short while. I will come down after cleaning up the dishes when my family is done with breakfast." 1

"Alright, then. I will be waiting for you outside your house."

Jasmine could not help but feel a little distressed after listening to Charlie's reply.

Master Wade was such a perfect and capable man. Why did he still have to clean up the dishes at home? Wasn't it simply too insulting to him?! 5

At this time, Jasmine could not help but think in her heart that if Charlie was her man, she would never allow him to do any housework at all! s

After all, a man should go out and pursue a career for himself, and he should be carefully served and waited on by his wife when he comes home. How could a man be made to do the house chores at home?! 3

On one hand, Jasmine felt very strongly about Charlie being treated so worthlessly, and on the other hand, Jasmine was very eager to become the woman who could serve Charlie well at home. 3

As soon as Charlie hung up the phone, Claire asked," Charlie, is your friend here to pick you up?"

"Yes." Charlie nodded before he said, "My friend's granddaughter just came over here to pick me up."

Claire nodded, and without even thinking about it, she quickly said, "Alright then, you should just go now. I will help to clean up the dishes today. Don't keep her waiting for too long." 3 Charlie hurriedly replied, "My dear wife, it is okay to let her wait for a short while. I will leave as soon as I am done with the dishes." 1

Claire quickly pushed him away before she said, "Oh, come on. Just let me do the dishes today. You should leave since you have something on. Don't make people wait too long for you!"
