Charlie did as he promised and he transferred forty thousand dollars to Elaine immediately.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince Charlie could transfer the money over to her so readily, Elaine was even more convinced that her son-in- law was not kidding when he made her those promises! 2 If Claire could give birth to a child, then Charlie would definitely give her the money readily without any hesitation at all. 5 As she thought about this, Elaine made a decision. 'No! I have to look for a good opportunity to have a good chat with Claire later in the evening. She isn't young anymore, so what is she trying to do if she is not in a hurry to give birth to a child any tsoon? If she has a child as soon as possible, then she would be able to get ready to have a second and third child soon! If she is going to wait until she is thirty before she gives birth to her first child, then she would probably not be ready to have a second child, let alone a third or fourth child then, right?' 1 'Of course, it would be best if my daughter can give birth to as many children as possible. That way, I will be able to earn more money from Charlie.' 6 Later that afternoon, Elaine went to the supermarket t 0 buy a bunch of high-end ingredients. 1 She bought spremium fish, shigh-quality beef, and also sbig and fresh crabs, i Since she could spend one thousand dollars to prepare their meals every day, Elaine really did not dare to embezzle a single cent at all. 5 She knew that she would have to perform well this tand make sure that Charlie was satisfied with her performance. She should not lose out on big opportunities over these petty and trivial things! 6 When Claire returned hafter getting off work in the evening, she was shocked to see the table filled with all sorts of premium dishes.
She would never have dreamt that her mother would actually be willing to buy such expensive ingredients. She even prepared the food with such great care and effort.
Even Jacob was shocked.
He thought to himself, 'What's wrong with Elaine today? Has she gone crazy?' Elaine greeted the whole family as she asked them to cand eat dinner together. After that, she smiled and said, "Starting from today, our family of four will have one thousand dollars to spend on our food expenses every day. As for me, I'll do everything within my abilities to make sure that all of us can eat and enjoy better food from now on!" 2 Claire exclaimed, "Mom! One thousand dollars a day? That would amount to thirty thousand dollars a month! Which other family would spend so much on their living expenses every day? Besides that, where did you get so much money?" Elaine pointed at Charlie immediately before she smiled and said, "Oh! This money was given toby my good son-in-law of course! Charlie said that you have to nourish your body and actively prepare to get pregnant soon. So, we have to make sure that you get all the nutrition and nourishment for your body!" When Claire heard this, she blushed immediately. After that, she looked at Charlie shyly before she scolded him, "Charlie, what did you say to Mom? Who says that I'm going to get pregnant..." 3 Charlie quickly clarified everything as he said, "Wife, I did not mean that at all. I simply said that you're very busy because you are working hard with the company affairs every day. Isn't it more tiring and difficult for you? That's why I want you to get more nutrition and nourishment for your body. I did not mean that you're going to get pregnant." 7 Elaine waved her hand and said, "Pfft! It's about tthat you two start preparing to have a baby. Of course, it would be better for you to have a baby earlier than later!" Claire felt very helpless and she could only say, "Mom, you don't have to worry about this matter." At this time, Jacob who was sitting aside could not help but sigh as he said, "Claire, although I usually

Claire blushed and her face was flushed red as she quickly said, "Oh! Both of you should stop worrying about this matter. I'm very busy with the company's affairs nowadays and there are many projects waiting in line forto handle. If I were to really get pregnant and give birth to a child at this time, then how am I going to explain things to my partners? Moreover, the company has already expanded a great deal and I have more than a dozen employees working undernow. I can't just take my hands off things like that, right?" s Charlie also replied, "Dad, Mom, Claire and I will plan this matter slowly on our own. So, both of you do not need to worry about it." 2
Jacob nodded before he sighed and said, "Of course, it's a good thing that don you're both focused on your careers for the tbeing. However, you should not be too absolute in everything that you do. You should learn how to strike a balance between work and rest." X
