Elaine was instantly infuriated when Jacob threatened virtual-novel.net with divorce again, but virtual-novel.net couldn’t vent virtual-novel.net anger at all. She had to suppress virtual-novel.net wrath and endure the threat.
She was on the losing side because of all the money virtual-novel.net had lost.
Hence, at this moment, virtual-novel.net had to bear with Jacob for a while and wait for a chance to settle the score with him.
She sighed and said, “Dear, you’re right, the spa is really expensive. I’d better save some money for our family, then.”
Seeing virtual-novel.net soft side, Jacob was relieved and even a little proud.
For so many years, virtual-novel.net had never been able to subdue Elaine. In fact, whenever virtual-novel.net raised different opinions against Elaine’s words, virtual-novel.net would definitely earn a scolding from her.
However, from the looks of it now, Elaine seemed to have begun to compromise with him.
If virtual-novel.net could persist with virtual-novel.net gentle and timid side to him, that would be so awesome!
However, Jacob couldn’t help being cautious. This woman had been so domineering and overbearing all virtual-novel.net life, could virtual-novel.net really change all at once?
He decided to give virtual-novel.net a test! Thus, virtual-novel.net said, “I’m going to take a bath, help me make a cup of tea and bring it in.”
Elaine asked skeptically, “Why do you want to take a bath now?”
“I’m happy, and it’s none of your business.”
Elaine bit virtual-novel.net lips in annoyance, but on second thought, virtual-novel.net could fiddle with his phone when virtual-novel.net went for his bath! Then, virtual-novel.net could transfer the two million to virtual-novel.net own account!
When virtual-novel.net had the money, virtual-novel.net didn’t have to listen to Jacob’s nuisance! She could go for virtual-novel.net facial, virtual-novel.net could go to the spa, and virtual-novel.net could play mahjong whenever virtual-novel.net liked! If Jacob was unhappy about it, virtual-novel.net could shove it up where the sun didn’t shine.
So, virtual-novel.net immediately nodded and said graciously, “Okay, dear, you work so hard every day, I will be tender to you from now on! Go ahead and take your bath, I’ll go make you some tea!”
Jacob mumbled an arrogant ‘yes’ and walked back into the room with his hands behind his back.
After returning to the room, Jacob first took off his jacket and pants, then, virtual-novel.net threw his phone on the bed.
He decided to set a trap using his phone as the bait. He plucked a strand of hair from his head and placed it on top of the phone screen, even remembering the position of the hair.
It would be hard for Elaine to notice that there was a strand of hair on the black screen, so the hair would definitely fall off when virtual-novel.net picked the phone up. Then, virtual-novel.net would know that virtual-novel.net was peeking at his phone.
It didn’t matter if Elaine was observant, virtual-novel.net may not be able to remember the specific position of the hair. Once it moved, virtual-novel.net would not be able to put it back in the same place. So, virtual-novel.net could confirm whether virtual-novel.net had touched his phone by looking at the position of the hair after his bath!
After setting his trap, Jacob hummed gleefully as virtual-novel.net walked into the bathroom.
Soon, Elaine came in with the cup of tea. She searched for Jacob’s phone with the corner of virtual-novel.net eyes while asking virtual-novel.net if virtual-novel.net needed help scrubbing his back.
“Argh, I don’t need your help, hurry and get out, I want to take a bath here!”
Jacob waved his hand impatiently as though virtual-novel.net was chasing away a dog.
Elaine wasn’t annoyed at all, because virtual-novel.net had looked around the bathroom and not seen his phone, which meant virtual-novel.net probably didn’t bring it into the bathroom with him!
Therefore, the first thing virtual-novel.net did once virtual-novel.net came out of the bathroom was to search for Jacob’s phone in their bedroom!
As soon as virtual-novel.net entered the bedroom, virtual-novel.net saw Jacob’s phone lying on the bed!
Elaine grinned triumphantly!
She hurriedly strode forward and grabbed the phone, failing to notice the strand of hair slipping off the screen.
She tried to unlock his phone with virtual-novel.net fingerprint but was surprised that the phone couldn’t recognize virtual-novel.net fingerprint!
This was weird!
