The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 1419
"You..."
Jacob was so angry right now, and his eyes were filled with resentful red.
His hands were tied when it came to counterattacking the tactics of a shrew like Elaine. 'A man with a pen can't reason with a man with a gun', that was what he felt like right now.
At this moment, Charlie started, "Alright now, don't quarrel so early in the morning." 6
Elaine immediately wilted as soon as Charlie's voice sounded. 5
If in the past, Charlie had dared to interrupt when she scolded Jacob, she would have bitten his head off for interjecting.
But things were not like it used to be now. Fortune knocks once at every man's door, and this time, it was Charlie's door. Now that she didn't have any money and had to live in a villa that was owned by Charlie Charlie held the most significant status in the family.
In order not to be kicked out by Charlie, she could only do whatever it took to please Charlie and not get on his bad side. 6
Thus, she glared at Jacob viciously and said, "If it wasn't for our good son-in-law intermediating, I would
definitely be done with you today! I'll spare you once for the sake of our good son-in-law!" 4
Then, she turned to Charlie with a wide grin on her face and asked, "My dear son-in-law, would you like me to make you breakfast?" Charlie asked, astonished, "Do you know how to cook?" 7
Elaine quickly said, "Watch your words, you're hurting my feelings. Before you came to our house, I was the one cooking at our house. Why don't I make you my famous tomato and egg noodles? I'll go pick some fresh tomatoes from our vegetable garden later!" i
Charlie had set up a vegetable garden at home some time ago, and later, he had the entire garden double-glazed and turned it into a greenhouse. In fact, it even had heating equipment installed inside, so the garden would remain warm as spring even in the winter. 5
This effect was guaranteed to be better than a real greenhouse where it provided an extremely good growing environment for the fruits and vegetables. 7
Charlie had been married to Claire for almost 4 years, and he had never once had a meal cooked by his mother-in-law. 6
Now that Elaine had volunteered to make breakfast, he was glad for the leisure time he was given, so he nodded and said, "Okay then, mom. Since you want to cook, I won't interfere. However, I need to go out in the morning. I might not be able to make it in time if it takes time for you to cook." 1
Elaine smiled coyly. "Don't you worry! I'll go and do it right away. It will only take twenty minutes at most!"
With that, she immediately went to the vegetable garden to pick the tomatoes. Then, she hurried into the kitchen and started cooking. 5 When Claire finished washing up and went down the stairs, she was utterly stunned to find her mother cooking in the kitchen.
For several years, she had never seen her mother in the kitchen again. Today was the first time since she had gotten married to Charlie.
