The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5920

Jacob felt a mix of envy and jealousy when he heard that Charlie was giving Elaine a million dollars. Although he had some income from the Calligraphy and Painting Association, it wasn't nearly enough for his expenses.

As the Vice President of the association, he often had to entertain guests, and his frequent trips in the luxurious car incurred substantial expenses. Despite his position, he was not as shameless as Elaine was, and he had always felt indebted to Charlie for his achievements and the opportunities he had, such as driving the luxury car and living in Thompson First. So, he didn't feel comfortable asking Charlie for money.

But when he saw that Elaine was about to receive a million dollars simply by asking for it, he couldn't help but feel frustrated. He even contemplated asking Charlie for some financial assistance, but when he thought of how he had insulted Elaine earlier, he was embarrassed to ask Charlie for money.

Meanwhile, Charlie wasted no time and transferred a million dollars directly to Elaine's bank account. Though he had grievances with Elaine before, as long as she behaved herself, he would treat her kindly, even if it meant giving her a few million dollars.

Shortly after, Elaine received a text message confirming the bank transfer. She was overjoyed and danced with excitement as she thanked Charlie profusely, expressing her gratitude, “Oh, my dear son-in-law, I’ve received the money! Thank you so much, my dear son-in-law!”

Charlie smiled indifferently and calmly reminded her, “Mom, don't forget what you promised me. No more arguments with Dad while I'm away.”

Elaine immediately raised her right hand and swore, “Don't worry, my dear son-in-law. I won't argue with him while you're gone. I swear!”
