The Charismatic Charlie Wade – Chapter 5754

Jacob isn't usually one to take risks. The only reason he found the courage to confront the security officer on the plane today was because the amount of money Involved was staggering, a whopping 20 million.

Alcohol can give even the most timid person a boost of bravery, and money works in much the same way. He wouldn't dare confront someone over a mere 30,000 or 50,000, but when it came to 3 million or 5 million, he'd be willing to do just about anything. And now, faced with the realization that he had unwittingly thrown 20 million into the enemy's pocket, he was even more on edge.

But Elaine's words instantly calmed him. What good would come from going to the detention center?

Elaine would end up with broken legs after just a couple of days, and he had no Idea what kind of trouble he would face if he were detained for fifteen days. The thought of it made him shudder. He couldn't continue arguing with the security officer. He had no choice but to sink back into his seat, a helpless expression on his face, tears streaming down his cheeks as he tightly gripped Elaine's hand.

He asked her, "Wife, what should we do now... I thought that thing was worthless, and I sold it for 300,000. But I never expected It to be worth 20 million. It's such a loss... I feel terrible!"
