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?”
“You… You…” Jacob hadn’t expected Elaine’s defense to be so vigorous, quashing his own arguments. He’d said his piece, so why did she have the audacity to approach Charlie for money?
Jacob, defeated by his own hesitation and lacking a counter, fumed, “I… I never meant to request money from my good son-in-law… I just wanted to remind him to be cautious out there!”
Elaine feigned nonchalance, took a deep breath, and placed her hands soothingly on her chest, as if greatly relieved. “Oh, Jacob, you nearly gave me a heart attack. I thought you had the nerve to ask your dear son-in-law for money! He works hard for his earnings. You’re a capable man, so you shouldn’t be spending other people’s money.”
Jacob snapped, “Elaine, what’s gotten into you? I’ve already told you, I have no intention of seeking money. Why are you endlessly fixated on money?”
Watching Jacob’s frustration while he remained reluctant to express his true thoughts, Charlie couldn’t help but think that the ancient adage might hold some truth, this poor man must indeed be despised.
Jacob, with a feeble disposition and a penchant for secrecy, perpetually lived in the shadow of imagined challenges, sabotaging his own opportunities time and time again.
When Matilda first returned to China, it was clear to everyone that Jacob had a desire to reunite with her. Matilda herself had been contemplating the same. They were like star-crossed lovers. If only Jacob could muster the courage to divorce Elaine, they could mend decades of regrets and secure a contented old age.
indecision, causing Matilda to lose patience. And to make matters worse, Mr. Riley, a man far above Jacob’s league, suddenly entered the picture, stealing away the love of his life. Even such a profound lesson from Matilda failed to trigger any meaningful self- reflection or a shift in his timid, obstinate nature. This left Jagoan both frustrated
