The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1441

Jacob did not eat dinner at home that night.

According to him, he was having dinner with several leaders of the Calligraphy and Painting Association as well as a few core members of the Senior University. 5

Jacob called Charlie a little after nine o’clock.

When Jacob called, Charlie was watching television with his wife in the living room.

His mother-in-law, Elaine, had put on a caviar antiaging facial mask as she lay down on the two-seater sofa in a leisurely manner while she scrolled through her online short video platform. As she was scrolling o n her cell phone, she muttered, "Oh! That Japanese girl who came to Aurous Hill to participate in the combat and fighting championship has a pretty good appearance!"

Charlie knew that she was definitely talking about Nanako. At this time, he did not say anything, but his cell phone had already started vibrating. 2

When Charlie saw that it was a phone call from Jacob, he hurriedly answered the phone and said, "Hello, Dad."

Jacob sounded a little drunk over the other end of the line as he laughed and said, "Oh, my good son-in-law, why don't you come over to the Heaven Springs to pick me up? I drank some wine."

Charlie did not think too much, and he casually replied, "Okay, Dad. I will come and pick you up now."

After that, he stood up before he said, "Mom, Claire, I'm going to go and pick Dad up now. He had some drinks with the people from the Calligraphy and Painting Association."

Claire stood up at this time and said, "Charlie, I will go along with you to pick Dad up." 2

Charlie did not think too much and nodded lightly as h e said, "Okay, then we can just drive your car."

When Elaine heard that Jacob had been drinking outside, she said in annoyance, "That old b*stard is getting more and more presumptuous now. My good son-in-law, don't go and pick him up. Let him come back on his own. When he comes back, I will lock the door so that he cannot come into the house. Let him sleep in the courtyard, then!" 1
