Jacob's cheeks blazed with embarrassment at her words.
He hesitated, then shot back, "Who ever said I was about to ask for money from my son-in-law? Did I even hint at such a thing? There's a world of difference between finding a suitable son-in-law."
Elaine gave him a withering look. "Save me your lecture," she retorted. She didn't bother arguing further with him. Instead, she turned to Charlie, resolute in her stance. "Listen up, dear son-in-law. No matter what nonsense he's spouting, you mustn't give him a single cent!"
Abruptly, Jacob's temper flared. He straightened up and spat, "Elaine, why must you persist in this? It's always about money for you, isn't it?"
Elaine playfully shook her head, mischief dancing in her eyes. "What's the matter? Since you're not asking your dear son-in-law for money, I'm simply advising him not to offer you any. What's so bothersome about that?"
