The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 1976
Right then, Elaine persuaded her, "Oh, Claire! You don't understand anything about Feng Shui, so you should not be interfering in Charlie's work or telling him what to do."
After that, Elaine had a stern expression on her face a s she said very seriously, "I do not expect you to be able to help Charlie in his career. However, I will never allow you to be a stumbling block in Charlie's way! Our family's future depends entirely on Charlie now!"
"Mom..." Elaine had already rendered Claire completely speechless at this time.
She could tell that her mother was already completely submissive toward Charlie, and nothing that she said would be of any use anymore.
So, she could only sigh helplessly as she said, "Sigh. I am going to the company first..."
Elaine hurriedly said, "Claire, aren't you going to wait for me to open up all the gifts before you leave?"
Claire shook her head and said, "I am already very late. Everyone is still waiting for me to hold a summary meeting."
Elaine said, "Alright, then. You can leave first. I will take a picture and send it to you if there is anything good!"
Claire hummed slightly before she told Charlie and Jacob, "Husband, Dad, I am leaving first."
Charlie nodded as he said, "Drive slowly on the road and pay attention to your safety."
Claire hurriedly replied, "Don't worry. I will definitely pay attention to my safety."
After Claire drove away, Charlie returned to the living room in the villa.
At this time, Jacob and Elaine had each taken a pile of gift boxes apart by themselves.
When Elaine opened one of the gift boxes, she exclaimed excitedly, "D*mn it! It is actually a limitededition Chanel bag!"
Jacob took out a bottle of Moutai. After reading it carefully, he was stunned as he said, "Oh, my God! This is a five-star Moutai that was produced in 1958! There is very limited stock, and a bottle of this Moutai even appeared at an auction a few years ago. The price of this bottle was 2.99 million dollars!"
"What?!" Elaine asked in horror, "A bottle of Moutai costs 2.99 million dollars? Isn't that insane?!"
Jacob curled his lips as he said, "Just look at the expression on your face now! You look like someone who has never seen this world before! A bottle of Moutai that costs 2.99 million dollars can already scare you like this? Let me tell you, there is another kind of liquor, and there are only ten bottles of that
Moutai in the entire country! It is called the Drought
Spirit, and it is worth tens of millions of dollars each!" 1 "Drought Spirit?" Elaine frowned as she asked, "What do you mean by that? Was the liquor dug out from the drylands?!"
Jacob replied contemptuously, "Are you sure you graduated from university? I am talking about the drought period, not the dry and barren lands!"
Elaine spit before she said, "Pfft! Who are you looking down on? It is obviously because you did not say it clearly! Who said that I do not know about the drought period?"
Jacob immediately retorted, "You definitely will not know who was the king during the drought period, then! If you can tell me the name of the king during the drought period, I will regard it as though you were truly a university student!"
Elaine was immediately speechless.
In truth, she really could not remember the name of the king during the drought period.
When he saw the anxious look on her face, Jacob sneered as he said, "Why? You can't remember it now? Did you go to university in vain, then?"
Elaine replied angrily, "Why are you talking so much bullsh*t? Let me tell you something, Jacob. The bottle of liquor in your hand is worth three million dollars. Therefore, you are not allowed to drink it! We should save it so that we can sell it after the price appreciates
eventually!"
Jacob was very annoyed, and he said, "This is what someone else gave to my son-in-law, Charlie. Do you think that it is up to you to tell me what to do? If my son-in-law says that I can drink it, I will drink it. If my son-in-law asks me to sell it, I will sell it, and if my son -in-law asks me to just smash it on the ground, you will only be able to watch me do so!" 4 "You!"
Charlie could only shake his head helplessly when he saw both of them arguing again.
Just then, his cell phone suddenly started ringing. It was actually a phone call from Quinn. Hence, Charlie told the couple, "Dad, Mom, I have something that I need to do. I will go back to my room first." After he was done speaking, Charlie went straight into the elevator without waiting for their response.
