Chapter 620

Even if he was still the former Christopher, he couldn’t go up against Charlie in any way.

He wasn’t sure when and how Charlie had become so skillful and amazing in martial arts that he coulddefeat the Wilson family’s brawny bodyguards. He definitely couldn’t withstand Charlie’s beating!

Dejected, Christopher contained his fury and said in a low voice, “Jacob, it’s my fault for being so rudeearlier. I’m sorry, but could you please ask Elaine to see me? I have something important that I mustask her.”

Jacob was utterly happy right now. He wanted to just hug his darling son-in-law and kiss him!

He had been so frustrated by Christopher’s provocation when suddenly, Charlie slapped him! It wassuch a refreshing scene!

Smiling gleefully inside, Jacob donned an emotionless face and said, “Brother, did you and Hannahwant to buy a villa two days ago?”

“How did you know?” asked Christopher suspiciously.

“Elaine told me. She was at her friend’s house playing mahjong when you and Hannah went to view thehouse.”

Christopher nodded. “Yeah, we did, but what does it have to do with today?”

Lady Wilson, on the other hand, frowned in confusion and asked, “Chris, what’s going on? Are youplanning to buy a house? When? Why? Why don’t know anything about it?”

Christopher was startled and then sighed desperately in his heart.

The gears in his brain were stuck by all the anxiety and tension that he completely forgot that he didn’twant his mother to know they were buying a new place.

Staring uneasily at Lady Wilson’s grumpy face, he put on a patience tone and explained, “Mom,Hannah and I are afraid that we wouldn’t have any place to live after the villa is seized, so we wentahead to view any potential house that we can afford…”

“Bullshit!” Lady Wilson cursed. “My house will be seized because you didn’t want to help the family withyour money! You’re so stingy when it comes to helping the company and you even went as far asviewing houses behind my back?!”

Christopher looked extremely embarrassed and awkward. He knew that he couldn’t settle his mother’swrath any time soon…

Frustrated, Lady Wilson slapped him and shouted, “Ungrateful bastard! You don’t believe in your ownmother and choose to believe an outsider! Great, now your fifteen million is thrown down the drain! Youare literally driving us to a dead end, bastard!”

Jacob felt quite bitter and upset when he heard that his brother had fifteen million in his possession.novelbin

He was once part of the family, but he only had one million in his savings. Later, he managed toincrease his saving to two million after trading the antiques and some stipends from Claire.

Unexpectedly, Christopher had fifteen million!

Feeling sourish, Jacob said, “No wonder! Brother, you transferred all the money to Hannah, didn’tyou?”

Christopher huffed angrily, “It’s none of your business!”

Jacob sighed and said, “Brother, you’ve given Hannah so much money. Even if she doesn’t want tocheat on you, there are many young men out there who dream that a rich woman would be able tosupport them financially and they would grasp onto her tightly like she is their lifebuoy!”

“What do you mean by that?” Christopher demanded, frowning angrily.

Jacob pretended to be shocked and said, “Haven’t you read all those real life cases on the Internet?There are so many similar cases out there! Some young men will target rich old women like Hannahand seduce them with their youthful energy. When the time comes, they would simply say somethinglike, ‘Ah, I don’t want to work anymore.’ Then, these rich women will immediately give them cars andhouses, keep them as their toyboy, or even elope with them!”

Then, Jacob shook his head and said regretfully, “Fifteen million, Chris, fifteen million! I wonder howmany young men are surrounding Hannah like bees to flowers! I’m afraid she can’t make the decisionin an instant!”
