The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 127

Not long after, the general manager arrived.

In his fifties, he was an intimidating man. He glared at Jennifer and questioned, “Miss, can you please tell me how you got this card?”

“It was my ex-husband's,” Jennifer answered.

The general manager observed Jennifer. She was indeed exquisite. However, based on how she dressed and acted, she didn’t seem like a wealthy person. She had to go through eight cards to cash out a little over two hundred thousand. He had seen many people like her, all of whom were average citizens.

Therefore, he had reason to believe that Jennifer stole the card.

“Who is your ex-husband?”

“Donald Campbell,” Jennifer replied.

The general manager gave it some thought.

Since there were only fifty black cards available, he could remember every owner's name. However, he couldn't recall a Campbell.

“I have reason to believe you stole this card,” the general manager concluded. “This card has a limit of one hundred billion. Do you understand?”

Jennifer was utterly shocked.

Isn't this Donald's card? Why is there so much money¹? Besides Charles and Lana, who else would have a hundred billion?

“No! You guys must be mistaken!” Jennifer tried to explain herself.

However, the general manager was not listening anymore. As he was about to leave, he said, “Report to the police. Keep an eye on her. Contact the central bank and look for the owner.”

Jennifer was losing it. “I have to go!”

She tried to leave in a hurry, but the branch manager forcefully held her back and pushed her to the ground. “You are quite beautiful. Why must you become a thief?”

He looked at her condescendingly with a mocking expression on his face.

“But I have to thank you for getting me a merit.” The branch manager laughed. Once the owner of the black card finds out how I've helped to locate his card, I'll surely be rewarded. I'll get a promotion and a pay raise!
