The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2021

When Charlie heard Claire's ridicule, he felt a thump i n his heart.

He was really afraid that if his mother-in-law and wife had nothing better to do, they would continue reasoning with one another before finally revealing his true identity.

Therefore, Charlie could not help but feel a little nervous when Claire placed her doubts directly on him. 2

At this time, Elaine waved her hand before she looked at Charlie. After that, she said with a flattering smile, " Claire, I think that what you just said is very unlikely. Although my good son-in-law is a very promising young man now, this is also a pretty recent matter. When Loreen came to Aurous Hill, my good son-in-law had not achieved any great things yet. Have you already forgotten that during that time, even that cowardly and spineless Harold actually dared to provoke and annoy my good son-in-law?" 1

Claire smiled helplessly before she said, "Then, I truly do not know what kind of great treasure you are talking about."

Elaine smiled as she said, "It doesn't really matter what it is. After all, it has nothing to do with our family at all. However, the reason why I am saying so much is simply because I want you to know that your

best friend is not as simple as she looks. She must be hiding a big secret in her heart.” 1

Claire replied, "Alright, then. We should just let her be. Even if she is indeed hiding a big secret, it has nothing to do with me at all. I do not want to pry into her privacy.” 7

After that, Claire continued, "Mom, don’t ask Loreen too many questions when she comes here later. Don't make it seem as though we like to gossip about others."

Elaine nodded as she said, "Okay, I will not talk much later, then.” 1

Charlie was finally relieved. 2

When they went downstairs, Jacob was already eating his noodles as he sat in the living room.

When he saw the three of them coming down the stairs, he asked, "What kind of interesting scene did the three of you witness? Why is my mother making s 0 much noise and causing such a huge commotion outside so early in the morning?" 2

Elaine grinned before she said, "Oh, Jacob! Your mother is remarkably promising now. She has already learned how to swear publicly on the balcony now. It seems as though Hannah stole her hard-earned money. Your mother was swearing and cursing at her, and she even made a police report because she wanted the police to arrest Hannah!” 1

Jacob muttered, "My mother’s ability to swear publicly on the balcony is still nothing compared to how you used to scold everyone from our balcony in our community back then!" 4

Elaine slammed her hands on the table immediately a s she said, “Jacob, what are you talking about?!” 1

Jacob hurriedly waved his hand and said, “I did not say anything." 6

After that, he hurriedly tried to change the subject as h e said, "Why did Hannah steal my mother’s money? What are they trying to do this time?"
