As Claire observed her parents mocking Charlie, she let out a deep sigh and said, \u201cDad, Mom, please don\u2019t blame Charlie for this. It was my idea. I just want our family to stop being looked down upon. Haven\u2019t we endured enough over the years?\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire\u2019s mother interjected, \u201cBut you can\u2019t take on such a responsibility. It\u2019s not just you\u2014even if your grandma were to go herself, they wouldn\u2019t take her seriously!\u201d<\/p>\n

Charlie managed a wry smile while watching the argument unfold. He suspected that his arrogant in-laws would never accept the fact that he was the actual owner of Emgrand Group. Just then, there was a knock on the door.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m coming\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Elaine let out a frustrated sigh as she approached the door and opened it.<\/p>\n

Charlie turned his attention to the doorway, where a young man in a sharp Armani suit stood. The man was strikingly handsome, with a Patek Philippe watch on his wrist that looked to be worth at least four million dollars.<\/p>\n

Elaine exclaimed excitedly, \u201cHey, Wendell! What brings you here?\u201d<\/p>\n

The young man was Wendell Jones, the heir of the Jones family who had been chasing after Claire for some time.<\/p>\n

With a charming smile, Wendell replied, \u201cAuntie, I heard about Claire\u2019s negotiations with the Emgrand Group, and I\u2019m here to offer her some advice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWow, you really are our family\u2019s savior!\u201d<\/p>\n

Elaine was bubbling with excitement, looking at Wendell as if he were already her son-in-law. She quickly ushered him inside and pleaded, \u201cWendell, would you help Claire secure the Emgrand Group contract?\u201d<\/p>\n

Wendell nodded politely, completely ignoring Charlie as if he were insignificant. He walked directly to Claire and said softly, \u201cClaire, why didn\u2019t you tell me about this? It\u2019s a big deal! Don\u2019t worry, my family has connections with Emgrand Group. I\u2019ll talk to my father and see how we can assist you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Truth be told, Wendell\u2019s father wasn\u2019t as influential as he claimed; he was merely trying to win Claire\u2019s affection with grand promises.<\/p>\n

Claire, aware of Wendell\u2019s feelings for her, replied coolly, \u201cWendell, I appreciate your offer, but I\u2019ll manage on my own.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elaine was taken aback and scolded, \u201cClaire, are you out of your mind? Mr. Jones is being kind enough to help you, and you dismiss him like that?\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire remained silent, but Charlie, intrigued, asked Wendell, \u201cMr. Jones, I\u2019m curious\u2014how exactly can you assist Claire? Emgrand Group is massive, and I doubt you hold much sway with them. So how can you guarantee Claire the contract?\u201d<\/p>\n

Wendell scoffed dismissively and replied, \u201cWhat do you know? The Jones family has been working with Emgrand Group for years. We\u2019re set to get at least one-third of their two billion dollar project! In the meantime, I\u2019ll ask my father to allocate ten million dollars as a subcontract to Claire. Simple as that!\u201d<\/p>\n

Charlie was taken aback, \u201cWow! I had no idea the Jones family had such a close relationship with Emgrand Group!\u201d<\/p>\n

Wendell smirked. \u201cOf course! Everyone in Aurous Hill knows that!\u201d<\/p>\n

He then shot Charlie a disdainful look and said, \u201cCharlie Wade, let me give you a piece of advice. A frog in a well like you should step aside. A man like you can\u2019t bring Claire happiness; you\u2019ll only be a burden.\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire interjected coldly, \u201cI\u2019m sorry, Mr. Jones, but I don\u2019t need your help, and I\u2019d appreciate it if you watched your words!\u201d<\/p>\n

Wendell, flabbergasted, replied, \u201cClaire, I\u2019m here to help you! Why are you siding with this loser? Why are you defending him?\u201d<\/p>\n

Claire responded firmly, \u201cHe\u2019s not a loser; he\u2019s my husband!\u201d<\/p>\n

A dark cloud crossed Wendell\u2019s face as he growled, \u201cFine! You\u2019ve made your choice. I\u2019ll be waiting to see how you solve this problem. Don\u2019t come crying to me later when you realize you missed an opportunity!\u201d<\/p>\n

With that, Wendell turned, slammed the door behind him, and left.<\/p>\n

Elaine rushed after Wendell, but he was already gone. She slapped her thighs in frustration, pointed at Charlie\u2019s face, and shouted, \u201cYou! How dare you! What can you do besides being a burden to Claire? Mr. Jones was genuinely trying to help, and you chased him away!\u201d<\/p>\n

Charlie replied flatly, \u201cMom, he\u2019s all talk. If he can\u2019t secure a contract with Emgrand, how can he possibly help Claire?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNonsense!\u201d Elaine retorted, \u201cWhat do you know, you ignorant fool! The Jones family can secure one-third of that two billion dollar contract!\u201d<\/p>\n

Charlie remained stoic, but inwardly he was amused, thinking, \u2018I may not know the full extent of the Jones family\u2019s power, but I am certain that my Emgrand Group will no longer have any dealings with them! Even if they have collaborated before, that\u2019s all over now!\u2019<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Claire couldn\u2019t read her husband\u2019s thoughts. She turned to her mother and said, \u201cMom, please don\u2019t blame Charlie. Just wait until I return from Emgrand Group!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHuh!\u201d Elaine sighed heavily, feeling that fate had dealt her an unfair hand. She had married a useless husband, and now her daughter had married someone even more hopeless! What had she done to deserve this fate?<\/p>\n
