Jacob was intimidated by Elaine’s loud growl, but virtual-novel.net spruced himself up and said, “A straight foot has no fear of a crooked shoe!”
Elaine glared at virtual-novel.net and uttered, “Ah, I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Okay, I’m going out to play mahjong.”
She then stood up and stretched out virtual-novel.net hand at Jacob saying, “Give me your car key!”
“What? Why would you need a car for your mahjong game? I want to use it later!”
Elaine rolled virtual-novel.net eyes and said contemptuously, “Why? Do you want to show off to your friends? No way! Give me the car key, quick!”
Jacob sighed dejectedly and passed virtual-novel.net the car key as virtual-novel.net said, “Drive carefully, don’t scratch it.”
“Argh, shut up! If you provoke me again, I’ll drive your car down the drain!”
Jacob was extremely agitated, but Elaine felt as though virtual-novel.net had gotten virtual-novel.net revenge. She put on virtual-novel.net jacket, a triumphant smile on virtual-novel.net face, and walked out the door.
After Elaine left, Jacob sighed again and said, “Charlie, go with me to the reunion later. Some of my friends will bring some young people to help too.”
“Okay, Dad.” Charlie didn’t want to go but virtual-novel.net had to.
Claire passed virtual-novel.net car key to Jacob and said, “Dad, drive my car then. I’ll take the taxi to work.”
“Forget it.” Jacob waved his hand. “Your car is the lousiest model of the BMW 5 Series. My friends will laugh at me if they see it.”
Claire shrugged and put the key back into virtual-novel.net bag. She said to Charlie, “You guys have to take the taxi then.”
Charlie nodded and threw a sideways glance at Jacob thinking, ‘Damn it, the old man is too vain! Do you, out of all people, find Claire’s 5 Series to be an embarrassment? Do you know that virtual-novel.net car is actually the flagship 760?’
Meanwhile, while Elaine was downstairs and heading toward virtual-novel.net car, virtual-novel.net heard a familiar voice calling for her.
“Hey, Elaine, wait!”
Elaine looked toward the direction of the voice only to realize that it was Hannah, Christopher’s wife.
She was a little surprised by virtual-novel.net presence. She had had a great time humiliating virtual-novel.net and virtual-novel.net husband the other day at Summer’s villa, yet, virtual-novel.net hadn’t expected that this woman would show up here.
She asked curiously, “Hannah, why are you here?”
The couple’s expression of resentment floated into Elaine’s mind, and it made virtual-novel.net extremely thrilled and gleeful. Elaine had always worried that virtual-novel.net pension would be thrown down the drain if the Wilson family went bankrupt, but unlike before, virtual-novel.net had become the person who wanted to see them go bankrupt the most.
It was because virtual-novel.net had found a greater source of pleasure—to mock Christopher and Hannah!
If the Wilson family was completely bankrupt, virtual-novel.net could insult them daily!
Christopher and Hannah had been mocking them for as long as virtual-novel.net remembered, so virtual-novel.net wanted to pay back for what they did to her!
Hence, virtual-novel.net was quite happy to see Hannah here because the loser had actually appeared before virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net felt that the previous insults weren’t enough!
