The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 646

Claire came out of the bedroom as she stretched her waist and asked Charlie, "Do you have something on today?” 2

Charlie replied, "I am going to attend a friend's birthday party later at noon." 1

After that, Charlie asked Claire, "Wife, did you need something?"

Claire nodded slightly before she said, "Yes, I wanted t o do some shopping, but if you're busy, you can go ahead and do your own thing! I will ask Doreen to accompany me."

Charlie replied, "Sorry, my dear wife. You can go shopping with Doreen today. I will accompany you some other day."

Claire smiled slightly as she said, "Okay, then."

Charlie's mother-in-law, Elaine, had a very black face a s she said, "Oh, Charlie, are you going to attend your friend’s birthday party? Is he old?" 3

Charlie nodded as he said, "Yes, he is eighty years old."

Elaine sneered before she said, "Are you trying to use your set of silly skills to try and fool those old men so that you can cheat them out of all their money?"

Charlie simply replied, "I did not lie to anyone."

"You are still pretending even now?" Elaine said as she snorted coldly. "Are there any more wealthy and powerful figures in Aurous Hill that have not been fooled by you yet? Let me tell you something. I can already predict your future. You are no different from those fortune-tellers from back then. Only two futures are awaiting you. You will either end up in prison or get hacked to death!” 7

Elaine had been very upset with Charlie recently. The main reason was simply because Charlie has donated all of the money she had lost to Linda and Hannah to the Hope Foundation. 1

Now, her pockets were even cleaner than her face.

Even though her store-value card for the beauty salon had already been used up, she did not have the money to top up the card to renew the beauty services. Elaine did not know how she was going to explain things to her husband or daughter if they found out she had lost all the family money. 1

Elaine felt that Charlie was the main culprit behind this matter! 5

Therefore, she was naturally very unhappy with Charlie. 3

When Jacob heard Elaine targeting Charlie again, he hurriedly stood up to defend him as he said," Seriously, why are you doing this again? What did Charlie ever do to you? Don't you think that Charlie has really done well to prove himself during this time?" 5
