Max was getting more agitated when he saw Charlie's beautiful wife, so he put on a sarcastic smirk and said, "Hey, Charlie, I haven't seen you for years, you have changed a lot, man. You look so polished and shiny, a typical toyboy and moocher face!" s
Then, he scanned Charlie from head to toe, shook his head, and said in a mocking tone, "If only I knew how easy it was to be a live-in husband, I wouldn't have had to spend years working my *ss off. Just look at m e, after working so hard for years, ruining my health i n the process, I’ve finally been promoted to a director position. It's so shameful to compare myself to the king of moocher like you!" 7
Max deliberately teased Charlie in such a cynic way because he wanted to boost his social status as well as discriminate against Charlie.
He couldn't help looking at the young and attractive Stephanie, s
Since he couldn't get his hands on Claire, the younger Stephanie with her tender skin and flawless face was the second-best choice!
When they were in the orphanage, why didn't he notice that this little girl could turn out to be so beautiful! He would have had his way with her back then! 7
At this moment, the guys behind Max smirked sarcastically when they heard Max mocking Charlie. They didn't say anything, but the disdain in their eyes was as clear as crystal.
As for Charlie, he stood in place, his expression as calm as the lake.
Claire, on the other hand, was annoyed, and said coldly, "Mister, can you watch your tongue, please? My husband didn't provoke or mock you, why do you speak so rudely to him? Besides, what does it have to d o with you whether my husband is a moocher or not, anyway? Does he mooch on you?" 10
Max’s eyes widened in shock. He didn't expect such a comeback from Charlie's beautiful wife!
Life was so unfair!
He was a hardworking and excellent man, why couldn't he have such a perfect wife? 9
