The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5921

Jacob instantly blushed at her words, and he stuttered as he tried to defend himself, “Who said I was asking my dear son-in-law for money? Did I say that?! I have other reasons for talking to my dear son-in-law. Don't make false accusations against me!”

Instead of arguing with Jacob, Elaine turned to Charlie and said, “My dear son-in-law, you heard what he said. No matter what he's scheming, don't give him a single penny!”

Jacob was immediately furious, and he angrily exclaimed, “Elaine, why are you like this? Why are you always just talking about money?”

Elaine playfully shook her head and grinned as she said, “What's wrong? Since you're not asking my dear son-in-law for money, why does it bother you if I tell him not to give you any?”

Jacob was speechless. Elaine's strong defense had thwarted his intentions completely. With her words, he couldn't bring himself to ask Charlie for money anymore. How could he, after being put in such a situation?

Jacob, who was at the losing end, was completely unable to refute Elaine’s words and could only say angrily, “I… I wasn't trying to ask my dear son-in-law for money. I just wanted to remind him to stay safe while he's away!”

Elaine pretended to heave a sigh of relief, patting her chest with both hands as she said with lingering fear, “Oh Jacob, you really scared me. I thought you were going to shamelessly ask my dear son-in-law for money! It's not easy for my dear son-in-law to earn money. Since you have a perfectly able body, you should not rely on others for money.”

Jacob was annoyed and retorted, “Elaine, what's wrong with you? I already said that I wasn't asking my good son-in-law for money. Can't you stop harping on it?”

Upon seeing Jacob's frustrated and hesitant demeanor, Charlie couldn't help but feel that the saying that there must be unbearable suffering that a pitiful man had in his life that pushed him to commit hateful deeds was indeed true.

Jacob's weak personality and indecisiveness always put him in a dilemma, causing him to miss opportunities and lose everything in the end even though he had had many opportunities to turn his life around.
