The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2030

At this moment, Charlie and his family were in the living room, eating New Year’s Eve dinner while watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV. The whole family was happy and harmonious, enjoying the atmosphere.

Jacob and Elaine, the old couple who always found each other despicable, had made an exception and held back their bickering during the dinner.

Jacob and Charlie drank some white wine together, in which Jacob was in a delightful mood.

Claire wanted to drink some red wine with Elaine, but Elaine snatched the red wine from her hand and poured it for herself while saying very seriously," Claire, you can't drink alcohol if you are trying to get pregnant. It's not good for the baby!”

With that, she turned to Charlie and said with a smile," My dear son-in-law, don't drink too much. Drinking too much wine will affect seeds' qualities in men! Eventually, it will affect the quality of pregnancy and the development of the fetus!"

Claire was immediately flustered. Blushed in embarrassment, Claire huffed, "Mom... Why are you being such a blabbermouth!"

Elaine said in an earnest tone, "I'm teaching you health care and pregnancy knowledge. These are

mentioned by those parenting and genetics experts on TV!"

Claire shook her head helplessly. "You don't have to be so blunt though! At least be more tactful!"

Elaine frowned, aggrieved. "Didn't I use the term " seed" instead of sperm? Isn’t that tactful enough?"

Jacob was a lightweight drinker, so he was a little tipsy after a few glasses. He looked at Charlie and said in a rather stern tone, albeit a little drunk, "Dear son-in -law, don’t listen to Elaine's nonsense. Years ago I drank too much, but Claire was still able to be conceived while I was in an unconscious state. Look a t Claire, is she of poor quality? In terms of quality, I daresay that my daughter is top-ranked in our country! She has inherited all my good genes!" 4

Elaine immediately snorted and said, "Oh, please! You say Claire inherited your good genes? What good genes do you have? Claire looks so beautiful, and it is all thanks to my naturally born beauty!" 2

"Bullshit!" Jacob pursed his lips. "Gorgeous? No one would want to pick you up even if you're dumped down the drain! Naturally gorgeous, my *ss!” 3

Elaine slammed the cutlery down on the table and shouted angrily, "Jacob Wilson, what do you want? I don't want to fight with you on New Year's Eve, so you better watch your tongue!" 4

Jacob quickly diverted the subject and said to Charlie, "Come, Charlie, let's drink!"

Charlie nodded. He picked up his wine glass and clinked it against Jacob's.

After finishing the wine, he received two text messages on his phone. 2

He clicked them open, and they were surprisingly from Nanako in Japan.

She first sent a photo of the courtyard of her Kyoto residence. In the photo, the courtyard was filled with snow again. 3

Soon after, she sent a line of text. "Charlie-kun, today i s the traditional festival of your country, New Year's Eve! I would like to wish you a happy New Year!

Besides, I want to share a piece of good news with you: it's snowing again in Kyoto tonight..."
