The layout of the second floor was exactly the same as the third floor. There were three rooms on each floor and two of it were large bedrooms with two smaller bedrooms.
The large bedroom was similar to a suite with a living area outside and a bathroom inside.
Charlie and Claire naturally chose this bedroom. After that, they decided to give the bedroom next to them to Loreen.
There was another room on the second floor and Claire planned to turn it into her study room. She often had to do design drawings and construction plans for her company and she needed a room where she could do all of her work.
Charlie and Claire looked around the bedroom. At this time, Charlie deliberately asked Claire, "My dear wife, the bed that we’ve bought for the room is about two meters wide, right?"
"Yes.” Claire nodded before she said, "Since the bedroom is so big, it wouldn't look nice if we choose a smaller bed."
Charlie chuckled before she said, "Then, wouldn’t it be a little too big for you to sleep on the two-meter wide bed all by yourself?"
Claire understood the meaning behind his words
immediately. Her face flushed red immediately and she asked in a low voice, "What do you mean by that?" 4
Charlie smiled before he replied, "My dear wife, don’t you understand what I'm trying to tell you? I've been sleeping on the floor for the past three years. Don't you think that it's time for me to be upgraded?" i
Claire was very embarrassed and she quickly asked," What do you mean by that? I don’t understand what you are trying to say." 5
Charlie hurriedly replied, "I mean that I would like to b e upgraded from sleeping on the floor to sleeping on the bed." i
Claire blushed before she said, "No one said that you aren't allowed to be upgraded anyway! There was also this one time where I asked you if it was cold for you t o sleep on the floor and you told me that it wasn't cold at all! Who else can you blame for that?" 6
Charlie raised his brows immediately when he heard Claire’s words. After that, he said, "My dear wife, I'll officially upgrade myself as soon as we move into our new villa, okay?" 5
Claire felt very shy and she quickly replied, "It’s up to you!" 5
After that, Claire hurried out of the bedroom. 2
Elaine thought about it for a moment. Since they did not even have any beddings or quilts here, she could only reply, "Fine! We’ll just go home together and pack up all of our belongings tonight. After that, we can move into the villa together!"
At this time, Elaine deliberately asked, "How much money do we still have in our family's savings?"
Jacob replied, "Why are you asking me about the money?" 1
Elaine replied, "I’m simply asking you about it because I'm curious. Can’t I ask you about it?" 1
Jacob replied, "We have about tens of thousands of dollars left in our family's savings. However, I’m warning you not to have any funny ideas about this money. If you want to spend any money in the future, you can go out and earn the money on your own. Otherwise, you can eat and live for free in this villa but we won't give you any more money to spend outside!" 2
As soon as Elaine heard Jacob's words, she could no longer suppress the anger that she was feeling inside. She blurted out, "Jacob Wilson! Do you really think that you’re that great? It seems as though you’ve been getting more and more arrogant in the past few days!"
Jacob replied in a cold voice, "Don’t forget that you've already lost more than two million dollars from our family’s savings! I'm already being very kind to you!" 2
Elaine scolded, "Don't you dare use that against me now! I have not settled the score with you yet! You actually dare to change your cell phone password to Matilda's birthday! I really hadn't expected you to do something like this! We’ve already been married for more than twenty years and I even gave birth to your child for you! How could you still be thinking about that vixen at a time like this? What are you hoping for? Are you secretly hoping that you can still get together with that vixen?"
