When Cain and the gang barged into the Diamond Suite, Charlie was on his way to The Heaven Springs, driving Jacob's BMW.

He had not planned to go out so early, but there was an annoyance in the house-Elaine.

She couldn't stop nagging him. First, she nagged about how wasteful Jacob was to have spent twenty grand on dinner instead of cosmetics for her and some mahjong rounds with her friends. Then, she diverted her nagging attention to Charlie, disliking him for not earning a living outside and staying at home mooching off them.

She became more and more energetic as she went on her nagging spree, insisting on introducing Charlie to a job as a security guard in the parking lot with a monthly salary of three thousand dollars a month and insisting that he give her all his salary when he received it.

Charlie knew that Elaine's pocket was as clean as a whistle after the scam and that she couldn't afford any lavish expenses like she used to, so she could only spend most of her time at home, sulking and nagging constantly.

She was in a bad mood and found Charlie extremely unpleasant.

It just so happened that Charlie was the only one at home besides her since Jacob and Claire were not home yet, so Elaine kept nagging at him which irritated Charlie to the max. Hence, he decided to get out of the house early, as he would rather wait in the car than listen to her annoying nagging. 6
