Christopher was trembling with anger at Jacob's deliberate sarcasm!
Indeed, he occasionally saw such news on virtual news portals. In fact, he admitted that he had even imagined such a scene before. He imagined that one day when he was super rich and bumped into a young and beautiful girl who told him that she didn't want to work anymore, he would just send her an address and let her come to him...
Of course, it was nothing but a figment of his imagination. He had never had the courage nor the ability to turn it into a reality.
However, when Jacob talked about his wife like that, for some reason, a very vivid and realistic picture showed up in his mind!
In the imaginative picture, there was a young man leaning against his wife's embrace and calling her name sweetly...
Christopher was extremely agitated, wondering how many times his wife had cheated on him. He stomped furiously and cursed, "Jacob, don't you dare mock my wife like that! Your wife isn't any better! You should b e thankful that you are poor, otherwise, Elaine would have ten toyboys under her paycheck!"
At this moment, Jacob's bedroom door opened wide.
Elaine barged out rapidly, pointing to Christopher's nose and cursing, "You b*stard! Your wife ran away, why did you come to my house and cause a scene? How dare you insult me? Just look at yourself, you pathetic old coot!"
When Elaine finally revealed herself, Christopher asked sharply, "Elaine! Have you seen Hannah or not?!"
"I told you that I haven't seen her! You are so irritating! I told you that Hannah eloped with her toyboy, taking all your money with her! It's up to you if you want to believe me or not!"
"You said she cheated on me with a toyboy, do you have any proof?"
"Huh, your wife disappeared along with the money, what proof do you want? If you want the proof so badly, just go and look for it yourself! Why do you come here?"
Christopher was so angry that his heart nearly burst out of his chest. Lady Wilson said coldly, "That's enough, let's go home now! Stop embarrassing yourself!"
Christopher pointed to Elaine with his ghastly glare and exclaimed, "Vixen, just you wait and see! I’ll f* eking come at you!"
