Jacob thought that he and Charlie were the only two people in the car. Charlie was not only his son-in-law, but he was also the person he trusted the most, s
Therefore, he was not guarded against Charlie at all. H e was also not afraid that Charlie would find out about the things that were going on between him and Matilda.
At this moment, as he was unpacking the gift, Jacob sighed as he said, "Oh, my dear son-in-law, do you know how popular your Aunt Hall is at the Senior University? Those who are interested in her range from young people between the age of thirty to forty years old, to old men between the age of sixty to seventy years old. It is simply a huge number, and I cannot count the number of people who like her at all! If I don't pay more attention to it, I am afraid that the situation will end badly for me, then." 7
Charlie laughed awkwardly as he tried to change the subject by saying, "Dad, you must have drunk quite a bit during dinner tonight, right? Why don't you stop talking and close your eyes to rest for a while instead?" 1
"How could I do that?" Jacob immediately said, "I have not even seen what your Aunt Hall has given to me yet."
As he spoke, he had already unwrapped the outer packaging of the gift.
As soon as Jacob saw the box inside, he could not help but exclaim, "Oh, my God! It turns out that it is a Rolex!"
When Charlie heard his father-in-law's words, he subconsciously glanced in his direction, and he saw a Rolex watch lying inside the box. 7
Jacob picked up the watch carefully before he looked a t it. After that, he exclaimed and said, "This must be the very popular Rolex Submariner Hulk, right? Isn't it worth about eighty thousand to a hundred thousand dollars at least?!"
Charlie took a look at the watch before he smiled and said, "Dad, you are too ignorant. This is not the Rolex Submariner Hulk. This is the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. It is a gold watch." 4
"Rolex Cosmograph Daytona?" Jacob frowned as he said, "I don't know anything about watches at all. I simply heard some people saying that the Rolex Submariner Hulk is really valuable. You’re saying that this is a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona? How much is it worth, then?"
