Elaine was instantly infuriated when Jacob threatened her with divorce again, but she couldn't vent her anger at all. She had to suppress her wrath and endure the threat. 2 She was on the losing side because of all the money she had lost.

Hence, at this moment, she had to bear with Jacob for a while and wait for a chance to settle the score with him.

1 She sighed and said, "Dear, you're right, the spa is really expensive. I'd better save smoney for our family, then." Seeing her soft side, Jacob was relieved and even a little proud. 1 For so many years, he had never been able to subdue Elaine. In fact, whenever he raised different opinions against Elaine's words, he would definitely earn a scolding from her. However, from the looks of it now, Elaine seemed to have begun to compromise with him. s If she could persist with her 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 her life, could she really change all at once? 5 He decided to give her a test! Thus, he said, "I'rn going to take a bath, helpmake a cup of tea and bring it in." 2 Elaine asked skeptically, "Why do you want to take a bath now?" "I'm happy, and it's none of your business." 1 Elaine bit her lips in annoyance, but on second thought, she could fiddle with his phone when he went for his bath! Then, she could transfer the two million to her own account! 4 When she had the money, she didn't have to listen to Jacob's nuisance! She could go for her facial, she could go to the spa, and she could play mahjong whenever she liked! If Jacob was unhappy about it, he could shove it up where the sun didn't shine. 5 So, she 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 stea!" 5 Jacob mumbled an arrogant 'yes' and walked back into the room with his hands behind his back. 1 After returning to the room, Jacob first took off his jacket and pants, then, he threw his phone on the bed.

He decided to set a trap using his phone as the bait. H e plucked a strand of hair from his head and placed it on top of the phone screen, even remembering the position of the hair. 6 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 she picked the phone up. Then, he would know that she was peeking at his phone. 3 It didn't matter if Elaine was observant, she may not be able to remember the specific position of the hair. Once it moved, she would not be able to put it back in the splace. So, he could confirm whether she had touched his phone by looking at the position of the hair after his bath! After setting his trap, Jacob hummed gleefully as he walked into the bathroom. 1 Soon, Elaine cin with the cup of tea. She searched for Jacob's phone with the corner of her eyes while asking him if he needed help scrubbing his back. 2 "Argh, I don't need your help, hurry and get out, I want to take a bath here!" 1 Jacob waved his hand impatiently as though he was chasing away a dog. 2

Elaine wasn't annoyed at all, because she had looked around the bathroom and not seen his phone, which meant he probably didn't bring it into the bathroom with him! Therefore, the first thing she did once she cout of the bathroom was to search for Jacob's phone in their bedroom! As soon as she entered the bedroom, she saw Jacob's phone lying on the bed! 1 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 her fingerprint but was surprised that the phone couldn't recognize her E fingerprint! 3 This was weird! X
