The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade novel Chapter 617

The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 616

It was possible that Hannah would make a run for it if she really had that much money in hand. After all, she and Elaine Ma were two peas in a pod. They were greedy and loved money more than anything.

‘Mother is right,’ Christopher thought. ‘Now that me, our children, and even my mother have become burdens, it’s possible that she has chosen to run away with the money!’

A layer of resentment and gloom surfaced on Christopher’s face. He said in a deep voice, “Let me call Elaine Ma and ask.”

He grabbed his phone and called Elaine Ma.

His call was answered almost immediately.

“Hey, Elaine Ma, it’s your brother-in-law, Christopher…”

Elaine Ma gritted her teeth in disdain when his voice came from the other end of the line!

This f*cking old dog! He must have known about Hannah’s plot to scam her!

Maybe he was the real mastermind behind all this!

When she thought about the terrible losses she had suffered today, she wanted to curse him at the top of her lungs!

However, when her thought shifted to the fact that Hannah was on her way to the coal mine, she suppressed her anger and said disdainfully, “Christopher Wilson, my husband and I were kicked out of the Wilson family, remember? Why are you calling yourself ‘brother-in-law’?”

Christopher huffed a heavy breath of dismay, but since he had called her for an important reason, he knew that he couldn’t annoy her. Hence, he cleared his throat and said sheepishly, “Sorry, Elaine Ma, I misspoke.”

Elaine Ma snorted. “Alright, I don’t have time for your bullsh*t. Talk, what do you want from me?”

Christopher asked hastily, “Elaine Ma, have you seen Hannah today?”

Elaine Ma quickly denied, “No! I’ve not seen her since we met at Summer’s house the other day. What happened?”

“No?!” Christopher yelped, and then cursed in his heart, ‘B*tch, who do you think you’re fooling, you lying b*tch? Hannah has been broadcasting to me live the entire day today! She reported to me when she arrived at your house, she reported to me when she was in your BMW, and she reported to me when she was playing mahjong with you. In fact, she even reported to me how much money and assets she had won from you! And you dare to say that you didn’t see her?!’

Christopher was exceptionally furious, but he swallowed his fury, and tried again, “When Hannah went out this morning, she said she was going to play mahjong with you. Are you sure you didn’t meet her?”

Elaine Ma was rather chagrined. The three women who played mahjong with her today along with their gangster had been sent to the coal mine. If their family members somehow found out that their disappearance was related to her, they might get revenge on her. Worse, she wouldn’t be able to defend her innocence if they called the police!

So, she had no choice but to deny it to the end!

She said impatiently, “Hey, you’re funny, do you know that? How can I not know if I have seen her or not? The answer is still NO! No, I didn’t meet her today!”

Christopher didn’t care if he would be exposed. He started to ask with a frantic tone, “Elaine Ma, please don’t hang up. Tell me honestly, please, did you see her? Where did she go? At noon, she sent me a message saying that she was playing mahjong with you at a friend’s house and she even told me that she had won Charlie Wade’s Thompson First villa! How could you not have met her?”

“Christopher, are you trying to make a joke here? It’s not funny, by the way! Since when did she win our villa? Besides, I said I haven’t seen Hannah today, do you understand? I can’t stand her, how could I have played mahjong with her?”

Speaking of which, she figured that Christopher must be behind the scam, so she gritted her teeth and exclaimed, “Christopher, it’s possible that your wife has eloped with someone and used me as a smokescreen! I heard a rumor that she used to frequent a gigolo at the KTV lounge who is about the same age as your son Harold. I even heard that they wanted to save money and run away together!”

Christopher shouted angrily into the phone, “Elaine Ma, you’re slinging mud—that’s a pack of f*cking lies!”

Elaine Ma blurted anxiously, “Oh, don’t you believe me? Fine! If you can find Hannah, I’ll admit defeat!”

“What do you mean?”

“Go and figure it out yourself! I’m very tired now, I don’t want to talk to you anymore!”

Immediately, Elaine Ma ended the call.

Christopher almost smashed the phone with anger when he heard the busy tone on the phone.

Harold caught his arms hurriedly and said, “Dad, calm down! The priority right now is to find Mom!”

Unfortunately, Harold didn’t know that his mother was on the way to the gullies in Erith and it was utterly impossible for the Wilson family to find her with their resources.

Wendy leaned against her father and persuaded, “Yeah, Dad! Don’t be so mad! What did the b*tch say?”

Christopher huffed indignantly, “Elaine Ma said that your mom has an affair with some dude and that she eloped with him!”

“What?!” Harold, Wendy, and Lady Wilson looked shocked! Their jaws almost dropped to the floor!

“An affair?!” Lady Wilson shouted. “Is this true?”

“I don’t know, Mom!” Christopher said anxiously, “That’s what Elaine Ma said on the phone! She said that the setup and scam were just a decoy, and that Hannah had actually set me up for me to let down my guard so that she could grab more time for herself to run away!”

Harold cursed in dismay, “The b*tch lied, Dad! My mom did not have an affair, let alone elope with him!”

Christopher’s face twisted a little weirdly. He said in a much calmer and colder tone, “We aren’t sure! Anyway, now that I think about it, your mom did seem a little suspicious!”

“What are you saying?” Harold and Wendy asked simultaneously, “What do you mean by that?”

“Your grandma has been asking me for the eight million dollars but your mom didn’t want to give it to her. She’s the one who had suggested that I transfer all the money into her account and let me tell your grandma that the money was stuck in the fund management account. That was why I had transferred all our money to her—the fifteen million, all of it!”

Upon hearing the amount, Lady Wilson’s eyes opened so wide they almost popped out of her eye sockets. She slapped Christopher across the face and chided, “Didn’t you say that you only had ten million?!”

Christopher was shocked by the slap as well as the truth he just blurted impulsively. He was feeling extremely aggrieved and angry that he raised his voice and talked back, “Mom! It was you who estimated that I have ten million! I didn’t say it myself!”

“Then why didn’t you be honest with me?! I’m your mother! Why didn’t you come clean with me and tell me how much money you actually had?!”

Christopher was dumbstruck.

Indeed, it was his fault for concealing the fact about the actual balance in his account, he was guilty as charged.

Lady Wilson huffed in anguish, “I always thought that you were different from your brother. I thought that you were better, smarter, and slicker than him! But, how dare you, how the hell dare you lie to me!”

Then, she gritted her teeth and muttered, “A wise man can be ruined by his own wisdom, silly boy! Instead of being truthful to your mother, you gave all the money to your wife. Great, now that she has run away with all the money, we’re done!”

Wendy uttered in agitation, “No! Grandma, my mom wouldn’t do that!”

Lady Wilson glared at her and blurted from the corner of her lips, “She wouldn’t do that, you say? Then, tell me, where is she now? Where did she go? Why did she disappear now?!”

Then, she continued aggressively, “Also, your mom kept talking about the scam, but why did all of her accomplices including herself disappear except Elaine Ma? This shows that there is a lot of oddity in this matter!”

Harold blurted his opinion that popped at the top of his head, “Is it possible that Elaine Ma was behind this? Could it be that she, in turn, took care of my mom and her accomplices?”

Lady Wilson exclaimed disgustedly, “Elaine Ma? Do you think that the stupid b*tch is capable enough to do such a thing? Only your idiotic uncle would be fooled by her! I don’t want to comment about your mother’s character right now, but she is ten times more clever than Elaine Ma, that’s the fact! If she had really wanted to fool Elaine Ma, there’s no way that Elaine Ma could have counterattacked!”

The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 618

There was a dash of uncertainty and doubt on Christopher’s face. He was almost convinced that his wife had run away with the money!

There was no other better explanation than this!

How could four adults disappear out of thin air just like that?

Even if they did, there must be some clues or traces left behind, right?

The more he thought about it, the more certain he was that Hannah might have betrayed him! Indeed, she was very rich now with the winning and their fifteen million cash.

He huffed and bit his lips in anguish, then said, “No, I can’t just wait here. I want to go to Elaine Ma and ask her in person!”

The annoyed Lady Wilson smacked Christopher with her cane and cursed, “You’d better get some answers from her and find Hannah! Even if you can’t find her, get the fifteen million back for me! You don’t have to come back if you can’t get the money, I’ll just assume that I only have one son!”

Christopher nodded dejectedly. “Okay, alright, I’ll go now!”

Suddenly, Lady Wilson said, “Wait! I’ll go with you!”

“Why? Mom, you’ll only create more trouble if you go!”

“Did you just say I’ll create more trouble?!” Lady Wilson cursed, “After losing all the money, you dare say that I’m a troublemaker?! I must go, nothing you say or do can stop me! If you don’t resolve this matter, I’ll break ties with you and live with Jacob Wilson!”

Annoyed and upset, Christopher nodded reluctantly and said, “Alright, fine, let’s go then!”
