The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1127

"Daffodils?" Claire asked in surprise. "Where are the daffodils? Why did they eat the daffodils?"

Charlie smiled as he said, "The small plot of plants that I planted at the foot of the wall looks like leeks, but they're actually daffodils."

"Oh my!" Claire blurted out, "Aren’t they leeks? I had really wanted to eat that!"

Charlie smiled before he said, "They look like leeks but they aren't leeks."

Claire replied, "I remember reading in a biology book that daffodils are poisonous, aren’t they?”

Charlie nodded as she smiled and said, "My wife is really very knowledgeable. Daffodils are indeed poisonous. There is a kind of narcissus in the daffodil plants and excessive consumption of it can cause food poisoning.”

Elaine widened her eyes in surprise as she exclaimed, "Oh, Charlie! Did you do it on purpose? It's no wonder why you asked me what kind of vegetables the old lady likes to eat! I told you that she likes to eat leeks and that is the reason why you planted so many daffodils, right? You’re trying to trick them on purpose!"

Charlie had a serious expression on his face as he said, "Mom, you can't say that. I didn't mean to trick

anyone at all. I had simply planted some daffodils in m y courtyard. As for the person who had stolen it and eaten it, that has nothing to do with me at all."

Elaine hurriedly smiled before she said, "Oh, my dear son-in-law! What are you thinking of? Do you think that your mother will blame you for this? I am more than grateful for what you’ve done! You’ve really done a great job today! Your mother can finally exact revenge on them and relieve my anger!"

Jacob could not help but ask, "Charlie, would it be life threatening if someone eats too much daffodils?"

Charlie smiled as he replied, "No. At most, they’ll only suffer from food poisoning."

"That's good then," Jacob replied as he heaved a huge sigh of relief. "Although their family is really despicable, no matter what it is, blood is thicker than water. You can teach them a lesson but you shouldn’t try to kill them."

Elaine pointed at Jacob before she cursed, "You’re just too soft-hearted! You don't want to take their lives, but they’re waiting to take yours! Do you know what your mother did to me in the detention center? Your mother was the one who broke my leg!"

As she thought about this, Elaine was very angry and she reprimanded, "That d*mn old lady is very vicious! She should be taught a lesson. Let’s see if she can still be so cocky and continue showing off in the future!"
