Chapter 769


    After lunch, Charlie declined Jasmine''s offer to send him home. He bid farewell to her and Lord


    Moore at Heaven Springs’s entrance, then walked to Construction Bank that was located not far


    from the restaurant. 1


    When he was at the bank, he transferred 998 million from the card that Lord Moore gave him to his


    own ount and went home with the card that only had a bnce of two million dors.


    At home, Jacob and ine had just eaten takeaway. 6


    When Charlie entered the house, ine barged forward like a dog weing her owner and


    asked," Hey, Charlie, how''s the job? Did you make any money?" 2


    Charlie nodded and said tly, "Some.”


    "How much is ''some''?" ine blurted frantically," Quick, take out the money now!" s


    Charlie took out the card and said, "There''s two million in this card."


    "Two million?!" Shocked, ine''s eyes opened so wide they almost fell out of her eye sockets! 1


    She quickly snatched the card off Charlie’s hand and blurted, thrilled, "Are you sure? You''re not


    bluffing, right? Is there really two million in this card?" 5 "Yes," Charlie replied monotonously, "I have


    checked a


    t the ATM, it has two million indeed."


    "Oh yes!” ine shrieked gleefully.


    Two million!


    The amount of money she had lost in the mahjong scam! 1


    In her mind, she started imagining visiting the beauty salon and spa with her friends, then a game or


    two of Mahjong with her friends, and then moving into Thompson First! A cocky grin appeared on


    her face as the imagination upied her mind. 5


    She flipped the card in her hand carefully and asked a s if something had struck her mind, "By the


    way, does this card have a password?"


    Charlie nodded. "Yes, the password is..."


    Suddenly, he gaped,ing to his senses. 1


    Wait a minute! This wasn''t right!


    Just yesterday, didn’t ine say that she would let Jacob be in charge of the family money in the


    future?


    How could she be so pompous to ask him for the password? 1


    Charlie quickly turned his nce at Jacob and said," Dad, didn''t we have a deal yesterday that you


    would manage the family money starting now?" s

    Jacob blinked as if he had been struck by lightning too! Charlie was right, he was in charge of the


    money, s o he should be the one keeping the two million! i


    Thus, he hurriedly raised to his feet, rushed to ine, and said, "Give me the card." 1


    ine hid the card behind her and looked at Jacob cautiously. "What are you doing?"


    "Yesterday, you said that I would be the one managing the money in the future. Do you want to go


    back on your words now?"


    ine stuttered sheepishly, "No, I''m not. I just want to make sure that it really has two million in it as


    Charlie said." 1


    Then, she tried a more direct tone. "Dear, honestly speaking, a big man like you can''t manage such


    arge sum of money in an orderly manner. Why don’t you let me manage the money as we used


    to, how about that?" 5


    Jacob flushed with anger, and he demanded, "ine, your promise hasn''t even passed 24 hours


    when you said itst night, and you want to break your promise now?" 5


    "No, I don’t mean that..."


    "What do you mean, then?" Jacob chided coldly, "Let m e tell you, don''t you ever think about the


    money and the management of it! If you insist, let''s get a divorce immediately!"


    ine crouched sheepishly. 4


    She wanted the two million so badly, but she couldn''t d o anything even if she had the card, as


    Charlie refused to tell her the password. 4


    Thus, she reluctantly gave the card to Jacob and red at Charlie viciously.
