The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 1942

She was already thinking of pretending to be pitiful in hopes that Charlie wouldn't deduct her allowance.

What was totally unexpected was for Charlie to be so generous, offering the considerable sum of a hundred thousand dollars!

Elaine immediately felt refreshed and energetic the moment she heard Charlie's words. She immediately thanked Charlie gratefully. "Wow, you are really the best son-in-law! It must be due to all the accumulated good fortune that I have you as my son-in-law..."

Claire was speechless when she heard her mother's words.

She was so stupefied because she realized her mother said those words sincerely. Rather than just a polite gesture, it seemed as though she was really saying them from the bottom of her heart... Charlie, too, didn't expect Elaine to be so moved with a mere hundred thousand dollars. He couldn't help but laugh secretly while thinking to himself, 'If I knew this superb mother-in-law of mine would be so easily controlled by such a small amount of money, wouldn't it be easier to keep her in line if I just gave her a bit more money?' 3

But after thinking things through, it was not what it seemed.

Back then, Elaine controlled her family's wealth. At that time, she would have had at least two million dollars in her hands. Even if she were to be given a few hundred thousand more, she wouldn't even budge. 2

However, after experiencing the incident where all their money was spent by Hannah, and after spending a few days suffering in the detention center, she lowered her expectations and minimized her lifestyle; she wasn't as greedy anymore. 4

Charlie's way of handling things has always been very straightforward. As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately transferred a hundred thousand dollars t 0 Elaine's card. The moment Elaine received the receipt message from the bank, she directly beamed and said happily, "Still, my son-in-law is the one who cares for me!"

During this time, the doctor walked in during his rounds, and Claire immediately implored her. "Doctor, may I know how my mother's condition is now?"

The female doctor smiled as she explained. "The patient is currently required to recuperate. This will definitely take some time. Other than that, there's nothing too serious. You can let her stay in the hospital fo further observation, or you can take her home to recuperate there. Either way works." 3

Claire turned to Elaine. "Mother, why don't we discharge you from the hospital and bring you home? It'll be much easier for us to take care of you. Plus, it is almost the new year, and staying here in the hospital

doesn't seem nice since it's too deserted."

Elaine nodded repeatedly. "This hospital feels very uncomfortable. I don't want to stay here any longer. Anyway, this is not the first time I broke my leg. I already have the necessary experience to take care of i t. Let my IV drip finish dripping first, then take me home." 2

At the same time, at Aurous Silverwing hospital. 1

Christopher and Harold Wilson were forced to leave the ward because they could not pay the hospital fees. 2

The father and son duo were lying on the mobile bed in the hospital. Lady Wilson and Wendy were pushing them to the parking lot.

When they arrived, it was Wendy who drove the newly bought Bentley.

The Bentley is not an ambulance; thus, there was no way for them to lie down safely or comfortably in the car. Therefore, they could only look for an ambulance t 0 transport them home. But to hire an ambulance was going to cost a sum.

A family of four, and yet none of them had any cash 0 n them. All their credit cards and electronic payment accounts had been frozen. They were literally penniless and didn't even know how they would pay for their parking ticket once they left the parking lot.

Just when they were at a loss, two middle-aged men

walked over and said, "Are you Lady Wilson?"

The men continued, "Mr. Webb sympathizes with your family and has arranged an ambulance to send the four of you back to your villa."

Lady Wilson breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully. "That's great! Could you arrange an ambulance to bring my son and my grandson back? I will drive back to the villa with my granddaughter."

The man waved his hand and said, "So sorry. The two of you will have to take the ambulance as well because this Bentley was bought by Mr. Webb, so he asked us to take the car back!"
