After lunch, Charlie declined Jasmine's offer to send him home. He bid farewell to her and Lord Moore at Heaven Springs's entrance, then walked to Construction Bank that was located not far from the restaurant. 1 When he was at the bank, he transferred 998 million from the card that Lord Moore gave him to his own account and went hwith the card that only had a balance of two million dollars.

At home, Jacob and Elaine had just eaten takeaway. 6 When Charlie entered the house, Elaine barged forward like a dog welcoming her owner and asked," Hey, Charlie, how's the job? Did you make any money?" 2 Charlie nodded and said flatly, "Some." "How much is 'some'?" Elaine blurted frantically," Quick, take out the money now!" s Charlie took out the card and said, "There's two million in this card." "Two million?!" Shocked, Elaine's eyes opened so wide they almost fell out of her eye sockets! 1 She quickly snatched the card off Charlie's hand and blurted, thrilled, "Are you sure? You're not bluffing, right? Is there really two million in this card?" 5 "Yes," Charlie replied monotonously, "I have checked a t the ATM, it has two million indeed." "Oh yes!" Elaine shrieked gleefully.

Two million! The amount of money she had lost in the mahjong scam! 1 In her mind, she started imagining visiting the beauty salon and spa with her friends, then a gor two of Mahjong with her friends, and then moving into Thompson First! A cocky grin appeared on her face as the imagination occupied her mind. 5 She flipped the card in her hand carefully and asked a s if something had struck her mind, "By the way, does this card have a password?" Charlie nodded. "Yes, the password is..." Suddenly, he gaped, coming to his senses. 1 Wait a minute! This wasn't right! Just yesterday, didn't Elaine say that she would let Jacob be in charge of the family money in the future? How could she be so pompous to ask him for the password? 1 Charlie quickly turned his glance at Jacob and said," Dad, didn't we have a deal yesterday that you would manage the family money starting now?" s Jacob blinked as if he had been struck by lightning too! Charlie was right, he was in charge of the money, so he should be the one keeping the two million! i Thus, he hurriedly raised to his feet, rushed to Elaine, and said, "Givethe card." 1 Elaine hid the card behind her and looked at Jacob cautiously. "What are you doing?" "Yesterday, you said that I would be the one managing the money in the future. Do you want to go back on your words now?" Elaine stuttered sheepishly, "No, I'm not. I just want to make sure that it really has two million in it as Charlie said." 1

Then, she tried a more direct tone. "Dear, honestly speaking, a big man like you can't manage such a large sum of money in an orderly manner. Why don't you letmanage the money as we used to, how about that?" 5

Jacob flushed with anger, and he demanded, "Elaine, your promise hasn't even passed 24 hours when you said it last night, and you want to break your promise now?" 5 "No, I don't mean that..."

"What do you mean, then?" Jacob chided coldly, "Lettell you, don't you ever think about the money and the management of it! If you insist, let's get a divorce immediately!" Elaine crouched sheepishly. 4 She wanted the two million so badly, but she couldn't do anything even if she had the card, as Charlie refused to tell her the password. 4 Thus, she reluctantly gave the card to Jacob and glared at Charlie viciously.
