As virtual-novel.net spoke, Jacob glared at Elaine before virtual-novel.net said, “We placed the two million dollars in your custody. When the time comes, I will sue you and ask you for half of that money in court! You will be legally responsible for it if you cannot take the money out at that time!”
“You…” Elaine did not expect Jacob to be so heartless and cruel!
Was virtual-novel.net going to divorce virtual-novel.net and ask virtual-novel.net to split their properties and assets between them? What was virtual-novel.net going to do if virtual-novel.net was going to sue virtual-novel.net for the money?
She was already old and virtual-novel.net had no money at all. How was virtual-novel.net going to continue living if Jacob wanted to divorce her?
Elaine could not help but feel a little anxious and nervous as virtual-novel.net thought about this.
She softened virtual-novel.net voice immediately and virtual-novel.net hurriedly said, “Oh, my dear husband, why are you so mad at me? Both of us have already endured so many difficulties and sufferings together for the past twenty years. Are you going to turn your back on me now?”
Jacob replied in a serious tone, “All I want is to know how much money there is left in the family’s savings. If you refuse to disclose it to me, then I will file for a divorce tomorrow!”
Jacob was already sick and tired of Elaine!
He has never felt any love or affection for Elaine, ever since they first got together!
He had always been in love with Matilda, the most beautiful girl in their school. Elaine had always been the third party in their relationship. In the past, Jacob has always ignored Elaine and this was the reason why virtual-novel.net thought of this shameless trick. She got virtual-novel.net drunk before virtual-novel.net had an intimate relationship with him. After that, Elaine told Matilda about this matter and Matilda decided to break up with Jacob because virtual-novel.net was so upset.
It was also Elaine’s good fortune that virtual-novel.net became pregnant even though they only had sexual intercourse once. That was the reason why virtual-novel.net could use the child in virtual-novel.net belly as an excuse and trump card to force Jacob to marry her.
Jacob felt as though virtual-novel.net had lost everything in the world and it hit virtual-novel.net hard when virtual-novel.net lost Matilda at that time. However, when virtual-novel.net thought about the fact that Elaine was already pregnant with his child, virtual-novel.net chose to marry Elaine for the sake of their child. He had a sad marriage life with no love at all for the past two decades.
Jacob has originally accepted and submitted to his fate. What could virtual-novel.net gain by divorcing Elaine anyway? Therefore, virtual-novel.net did not think about divorcing her.
However, virtual-novel.net felt compelled to do so after meeting up with his old classmates during their last reunion.
Since Elaine was behaving so abnormally, irrationally, and unreasonably today, Jacob felt as though virtual-novel.net had already given up on virtual-novel.net completely. He could not wait to divorce virtual-novel.net so that virtual-novel.net could just get rid of this woman!
Elaine was panicking at this point.
She had been bullying Jacob for so many years because Jacob would never fight back and virtual-novel.net would simply tolerate and put up with it all the time. However, Elaine could not help but feel anxious when virtual-novel.net saw how resolute and tough virtual-novel.net was today!
Even though Elaine was very unreasonable and demanding, virtual-novel.net was just a paper tiger!
If virtual-novel.net was yelling and someone slapped her, virtual-novel.net would keep quiet immediately.
However, if the other party showed a little fear or appeared to be slightly intimidated, then virtual-novel.net would immediately rush forward to bite the other party!
When Elaine saw Jacob losing his temper and getting angry, virtual-novel.net was really scared.
At this time, Claire suddenly spoke up and said, “Mom, even though we agreed to leave our family’s finances and financial matters into your hands, both dad and I are qualified and we have the right to know and understand the current financial situation of the family. Since dad wants to see your bank balance, then you should just log into your banking app so that virtual-novel.net can have a look at it!”
Elaine bit virtual-novel.net lip and virtual-novel.net felt as though virtual-novel.net was on the verge of collapsing.
At this time, virtual-novel.net tried to avoid Jacob’s gaze before virtual-novel.net mustered up the courage to whisper, “The money…is all gone…”
“What are you saying?” Jacob exploded as virtual-novel.net yelled, “The money’s all gone? How did you use up more than two million dollars?”
