The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 611
Elaine Ma knew that if she was busted, she could be charged for gambling. Worse still, if her husband
and daughter knew that she had gambled with such a large amount of money, they would be infuriated.
She would be condemned for what she had done.
Although the money was gone now, at least she did not end up worse than those people who were sent
to the coal mine for the next one to two decades.
Yet, she couldn’t help feeling depressed with the money and bangle lost.
She could still explain herself about the broken bangle. She had taken the broken pieces with her
anyway, she could tell her family that the bangle broke.
What explanation should she come up with regarding the money?
Jacob Wilson did not have his own bank account. All the household money was in her own hands,
including the money her husband earned from reselling the antiques.
Now, she had lost all the money to gambling. If Jacob Wilson were to find out about it, he would be
extremely angry at her!
Elaine Ma was sighing in depression and agitation. She was regretful about what happened today.
On the way home, Albert called Charlie Wade and said, “Master Wade, I personally watched the team
departing to the highway and they are on the way to Erith now. I should have gone there myself and
handled the situation, but I have some business to tend to at Heaven Springs tonight. Some bigshot
reserved the Diamond Suite for a dinner banquet, so I need to go and take a look…”
Then, he added, “But don’t worry, I’ll fly there tomorrow to check on things. The convoy will be there
when I arrive in the afternoon.”
Charlie Wade asked curiously, “Do you have noble guests tonight at your restaurant? Who is it?”
“The Webb family of the South Region, that is, Donald Webb and his son, Sean.”
Charlie Wade frowned in confusion. It has been several days, why hadn’t they left yet?
Did they intend to stay at Aurouss Hilll and dig him out?
After all, he was the reason why Kian Webb had to eat poop every hour.
The Webb family must have realized that there must be a hidden agenda behind this, and so, they have
stayed back in search of the truth.
However, Charlie Wade was not worried at all. No matter how powerful the Webb family was, they were
not on par with the Wade family.
Besides, even without mentioning the Wade family’s name, the Webb family couldn’t touch him with his
current power and strength.
If they insisted on targeting him, he had no choice but to counterattack them.
Hence, Charlie Wade said into the phone, “Okay, noted. Get busy, then.”
“Okay, Master Wade!”
They almost arrived home when he ended the call.
Elaine Ma said, “Pull the car over, I’ll drive back by myself. You can walk home, I don’t want your dad and
Claire Wilson Wilson to see us coming back together!”
Charlie Wade nodded indifferently. He stopped the car by the road and got off. He could visit the market
and buy some ingredients for dinner.
When he was at the market, he called Jacob Wilson to see if the party at Glorious Club was over.
Jacob Wilson told Charlie Wade that he had just returned home after the party and thanked Charlie
Wade profusely for amending his honor tonight.
When Charlie Wade returned home from the market, Jacob Wilson was sitting in the living room,
humming delightfully while holding a cup of tea.
He grinned from ear to ear when he saw Charlie Wade coming in. “Hey, my dear son-in-law, welcome
home!”
The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 612
Charlie Wade smiled at him. After finding out that Claire Wilson Wilson and Elaine Ma were not in the
living room, he asked, “Have Claire Wilson Wilson and Mom returned?”
“No and yes,” Jacob Wilson gestured indifferently and said, “Your mom went into the room as soon as
she came home, saying that she was not feeling well. I wonder what’s wrong with her, she must have lost
money playing mahjong and is heartbroken!”
Charlie Wade nodded and asked attentively, “Dad, don’t you want to check on her? Just in case?”
“Argh, forget it.” Jacob Wilson gestured, unconcerned. “She only knows playing mahjong and nothing
else, I’m sick of it. Even if she loses, it’s only about several thousand, just leave her be. She’ll know how
to slow down after crying for two days!”
Charlie Wade tried to stifle his laugh.
Several thousand?
Dad, you should multiply that by eight thousand!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYour wife has lost more than sixty million today!
Now that he thought about it, he couldn’t help but sigh at Elaine Ma’s stupidity. She had lost more than
sixty million in a mahjong game with those aunties. What kind of idiot must she be to have made such a
horrifying mistake?
***
Meanwhile, at the Wilson family villa, just like Jacob Wilson, Christopher was sitting comfortably on a
recliner in the living room, sipping tea and humming gleeful songs while waiting for Hannah’s triumphant
return.
There was no doubt that Christopher and Jacob Wilson were brothers. The way they celebrated happy
moments was almost the same.
Christopher was looking at his phone and giggled every time he read the message that Hannah had sent
him an hour ago.
The message read, “Dear, Elaine Ma’s two million dollars in savings, her house that she currently lives
in, and the jade bangle worth five million are in our hands now! She has also mortgaged the Thompson
First villa to us as collateral for her debts, Charlie Wade is sending us the housing contract now! We’re
going to be rich!”
Christopher made a brief calculation in his mind. Excluding the miscellaneous things, the villa alone
could sell for at least a hundred and twenty million. When they divided the money by four, he would get
nearly fifty million!
Fifty million, that was more than enough!
At that time, if he added in his cash, Elaine Ma’s current house, and the jade bangle, they could get a
few million more. By then, they would get more than fifty million!
In addition to the fifteen million dollars he had in his account, it would add up to nearly seventy million!
The money would be enough for him to enjoy his lavish life for a long time even if the Wilson family were
to go bankrupt!
He even started planning on how he would spend the money.
First of all, he would give his mother eight million.
The old lady had been bugging him continuously because of the eight million. He could only comfort her
by saying that the fund manager needed two days’ time to withdraw the money from their fixed deposit
account and assured her that he would transfer the money to the Wilson Group’s account as soon as he
received the money.
So, he decided he would give eight million to his mother and shut her up forever after Hannah cheated
Elaine Ma of her money.
As for the remaining money, he would keep it a secret and must not let his mother know of its existence.
He planned to buy a mansion and move in after the family goes bankrupt.
Christopher was extremely happy when his imagination ran wild in his head. He sighed in a grin, “Sigh,
Elaine Ma, you b*tch, how dare you be so cocky with us after getting the villa, huh? Do you feel the pain
now? Serve you right, b*tch! Think of the losses as compensation for our emotional damages!”
He didn’t feel a bit of sadness or sorrow for making Elaine Ma bankrupt.
This b*tch deserved to be cheated and scammed!
In fact, he should think of a way to scam her money every time she had money in her pocket and turn
her into their long-term income source!
The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 613
While Christopher indulged in his imagination, thinking about how to make Elaine Ma his long-term cash
withdrawal machine, Lady Wilson walked in from the outside with a gloomy expression.
Christopher jumped from his seat and greeted, “Mom, you’re home! How’s everything?”
Lady Wilson huffed indignantly and said, “The bank will soon start the bankruptcy liquidation process,
they said that it will start next Monday. Once the process starts, they will seize this house. Where is the
eight million that you promised? Why haven’t you transferred it to me yet?!”
Christopher chuckled pretentiously. “Mom, stop rushing me. Didn’t I tell you that the money is stuck in the
fixed deposit account? My fund manager is trying to withdraw it as soon as possible. I promised that I’ll
give you the money, just be patient.”
If possible, he didn’t want to give his mother even a penny. However, something changed his mind.
He depended on Lady Wilson to inherit the anonymous assets that Lady Wilson had hidden away,
including the millions in life insurance after her death, several million jewelry in her personal possession,
and his father’s antiques worth more than twenty million.
He understood his mother very well. Those jewelry and antiques were her last straw, she would never
use them to save the company. Moreover, no one knew where these things were kept except for her.
She must have shifted these things to a safe place a long time ago so that when the bank and court
order came to seize the company and property, they would never find these things.
If he had a fallout with his mother now, his mother might not leave the inheritance to him. So, no matter
what, he had to give the eight million dollars up!
When Linda sold Charlie Wade’s Thompson First villa, he could give Lady Wilson the eight million!
Lady Wilson couldn’t read his mind, but hearing his excuses, she huffed in agitation, “Chris, I raised you.
I know something’s brewing in your mind just by looking at your expression. Don’t you dare drag this
matter and keep the money for yourself! If you don’t give me the money, I’ll move to Jacob Wilson’s
house tomorrow. When I die, I’ll leave my life insurance, jewelry, and your father’s antiques to Jacob
Wilson! Don’t say I didn’t warn you!”
Christopher panicked. Just as he thought, his mother threatened him with the inheritance. He quickly
walked to his mother and comforted, “Mom, what are you talking about? Since I’ve already promised
you, I’ll definitely give you the money. I’ll give it as soon as today and tomorrow at the latest, okay?”
Lady Wilson crashed down on the sofa and said, “Okay, bring me the money now!”
Christopher spread his arms, frowning. “Mom, I really don’t have the money now… Don’t worry, I’ll give it
to you tomorrow!”
Before he could finish, Lady Wilson yelped in agony and cried, “Argh! Tomorrow, tomorrow! You
ungrateful b*stard, how dare you to keep pushing the word tomorrow in my face! I’ve raised you for
nothing!”
Christopher patted the old woman’s hand and said gently, “Mom, relax, stop yelling. I really don’t have
the money, it is with Hannah! She has gone out today to settle the matter. When she comes back, I’ll give
it to you no later than tomorrow!”
Lady Wilson stopped crying and asked, “It’s getting late, why hasn’t she returned?”
“I’m not sure. She had gone out to the bank, she should be back soon…”
Then, he took out his phone and sent Hannah a message, “Dear, where are you now? Are you on the
way home?”
Yet, he did not receive any reply.
He frowned in confusion and said, “Mom, I’ll call Hannah now.”
He called Hannah and turned on the speakerphone, and a system reminder resonated, “Sorry, the
person you have called is unavailable.”
“Huh, that’s weird. See, Mom? You heard it, her phone must be out of battery, I can’t get through to
her…”
“Continue to call until you get through!” Lady Wilson chided angrily, “Let me warn you, don’t you try to
fool me. Give me the phone, I’ll call her myself!”
Christopher sighed helplessly and handed the phone to his mother. “Here, you call her.”
The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 614
After taking the phone, Lady Wilson tried to dial Hannah’s number, but the same notification came
through.
She said in confusion, “What’s wrong? Why has she switched off her phone?”
“Mom, it’s quite common for the phone to turn off automatically when the battery is dead. Besides, she’s
outside and it’s inconvenient for her to charge her phone.”
Lady Wilson threw the phone to him and chided angrily, “Then keep calling until the call gets through!”
Christopher sighed. He sat on the couch and kept calling and hanging up.
It went on for half an hour but he couldn’t get through to her.
As Christopher attempted to call her again, he felt that something wasn’t going right as they had
planned…
Logically speaking, the mahjong scam that Hannah and Linda had planned was not held outdoors but
inside a house. Charging a phone should not be a big problem.
Moreover, he reminded her again and again to always keep in touch just so he could go and save her if
anything happened.
Hence, it was impossible that she would turn off her phone without warning.
What exactly was going on?
As his mind ran wild, he sat up straight, frowned sternly, and mumbled to himself, “Something isn’t
right…”
Lady Wilson threw a sideways glance at him and said, “Drop the act. Tell me, what the hell is going on!”
Suddenly, Christopher felt like he stumbled into a messy web, he started to feel uneasy and irritable. He
looked at his mother and said, “Mom, please stay out of this first. I can’t contact Hannah now, let me try
to call some other people to see if anyone is with her.”
Then, he searched for Linda’s number and called her.
The same system reminder sounded. Her phone was switched off too.
Next, he tried calling Hudson and Gianna, and the result was the same…
This was so weird! What the hell was going on?!
Christopher was completely confused and agitated!
He scratched his head in a panic, the bad premonition in his heart growing stronger and stronger.
Lady Wilson watched his son curiously. Slowly, she started to feel that he was not faking it, and it was
then when she realized that something must have gone wrong!
She sat up straight and hurriedly asked, “Chris, what is going on? Tell me now!”
Christopher shook his head in bewilderment and mumbled, “I don’t know what’s going on…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Then why do you look so frustrated and unsettled? Why hasn’t Hannah been in touch yet? What are you
hiding from me?”
Christopher hesitated for a moment. Then, he sighed, cleared his throat, and said, “Mom, let me be
honest with you. Actually, Hannah had set up a trap for Elaine Ma today. She hired a con woman to play
mahjong with Elaine Ma with the purpose of cheating Elaine Ma of her money and Charlie Wade’s villa.
When the bank seizes our house, you can finally stay at the Thompson First villa that you’ve always
dreamed of!”
Lady Wilson blinked in excitement and blurted in a hurry, “So, did Hannah get the villa? When can I move
in?”
The Amazing Son in Law Chapter 615
Upon hearing the words ‘Thompson First’, Lady Wilson’s eyes opened so wide they almost popped out
of her eye sockets.
She had coveted Charlie Wade’s new villa for a long time and even in her dreams, she wanted to move
into the house so badly.
In fact, she hoped she could die in the house.
There were some superstitions and sayings among the folk, such as it is best not to die in the hospital
because you might not find the way home.
Another one was it is best to wear your shroud before you die because you might be naked when you go
to the afterlife.
Yet another example was that if you die in a mansion, you would be able to reincarnate into a wealthy
family in your next life and enjoy the glory and wealth.
Therefore, Lady Wilson longed that she could live in a top-notch luxury villa like Thompson First until the
day she died.
The other day, she had directed Harold to rob the villa but ended with horrible consequences. Harold and
his bodyguards had been beaten up terribly.
Since then, she stopped thinking about robbing the villa forcibly, but her greed never ended.
She was extremely thrilled when she heard that Christopher and Hannah were planning to snatch the
villa out of Elaine Ma’s hands!
At this moment, Harold and Wendy had just returned home. They were equally excited when they
overheard their father and grandmother’s conversation.
Harold rushed forward and asked anxiously, “Dad, did you just say the Mom was going to snatch Charlie
Wade’s villa from Elaine Ma? How is it? Did she succeed?”
Wendy grinned excitedly too. “Yes, Dad, how is it?”
Christopher sighed dejectedly though and said, “In the last message your mom sent me, she said that
she had gotten Elaine Ma’s cash, the house that she currently lives in, and Charlie Wade’s Thompson
First villa…”
Before he could finish, Lady Wilson interjected with a shrill voice, “That is really great news! Wonderful!
In that case, when the bank seizes our house, we can immediately move into Thompson First! Hahaha!
Elaine Ma, that uneducated pathetic shrew! She deserves to be cheated! It is best if we can make her
broke and miserable!”
Christopher plastered a bitter smile on his face as he said, “Mom, even if the scam works, we still have to
share it with the partners. If we want to keep the villa, we must compensate those con women several
hundred thousand, but the most critical thing is that I can’t get hold of Hannah! I can’t get in touch with
her along with her partners who organized the scam with her! They’re all gone!”
“Gone?” Lady Wilson was startled. After a short pause, she frowned and muttered, “Chris, do you think
she has run away with the money?”
“Run away?” Christopher blurted in disbelief, “No way! Hmm, I don’t think so. Why would she run away?”
Harold also said, “Grandma, Mom wouldn’t run away with the money, don’t worry!”
Lady Wilson shook her head and said, “Nah, it’s hard to say! Look at us, we are partly finished now, and
Hannah knows very well that our family can no longer return to its previous glory. And you, you idiot,
you’ve given her all the money. If she decides that she doesn’t want to live a miserable life with you,
she’d just run away with the money!”
Then, her tone became solemn. “Think about it, what if she has sold the villa and gotten tens of millions
or billions of dollars in her pocket? She has more than one reason to run! Maybe she has already gone
abroad and disappeared just like that!”
Christopher defended her, saying, “Mom, Hannah has been married to me for so many years. We quarrel
and fight sometimes but our relationship is very solid!”
Lady Wilson chided coldly, “That’s because she had no money! She had to rely on us financially, but
now? The financial power was shifted to her hands the minute you gave her all your savings. She
doesn’t need you anymore!”
Then, she growled loudly, “Besides, if she gets Charlie Wade’s villa today, her net worth must have
skyrocketed several fold with the tens of millions of assets in her possession! To her, you are no longer a
husband but a handicap instead!”
Christopher froze abruptly.
He didn’t want to admit that what his mother said was true, but vaguely, he realized there was something
wrong in this matter.
