Elaine waved her hand and wiped her tears: “Hey, I can’t mention it, I can’t mention it, it’s a bitter tear…”
Looking at her like this, Jacob didn’t dare to laugh even if he wanted to. He just stood there motionless or spoken.
Elaine glanced at him, and said angrily: “Jacob, what are you doing here!”
Jacob hurriedly said, “You said what I am here to do, of course I am here to see you.”
“See me?” Elaine said angrily: “I think you came to see me and laugh at me!”
Jacob hummed in his heart: “Hey, I really made you right, but I can’t admit it…”
So, he can only say embarrassingly: “What are you talking about it? Even if we are separated or divorced, we will be together for half a lifetime. You were bullied in this way. I must feel sorry for you!”
Elaine glared at him: “You feel bad a*, you! don’t know what you old dog are thinking, you fcking want me to be lame forever!”
Jacob did not expect Elaine to guess so accurately, but he did not dare to respond.
Fortunately, Claire on the side said at this time, “Mom, don’t quarrel with Dad. He came to see you out of concern.”
Elaine said angrily, “I don’t need his care.”
After speaking, she looked at Charlie again, and said bitterly: “Good son-in-law, this time I was tossed by the same group of people who engaged in MLM last time. Mom is really in bad luck. This time I will be fighting for a few months with the plaster, not only I can’t cook for you, but also won’t be able to go anywhere in the future. The days to come will be extremely depressing…”
Charlie understood Elaine’s meaning at once.
So he immediately said openly: “Mom, in this case, I’ll cook the food in the future. In addition, I will transfer you 100,000 in pocket money. You are really bored during this time. You can buy something online. Just play with things and it’s time to manage and be patient.”
When Elaine heard this, she was immediately moved!
In fact, she didn’t expect Charlie to give her money at all.
She just felt that Charlie had promised her that he would pay 30,000 a month for food and another 10,000 for the hard cost of cooking. She did not dare to deduct the food cost, but the hard work should be taken for granted.
But now she is limping again, and she can’t buy vegetables and cook. No one can do this work. She was afraid she couldn’t ask Charlie for the 10,000.
