Even until Claire came home from work, Jacob was still looking sulky and lifeless.
Charlie knew that snazzynovel.com was sulking because of the invitation card of the auction.
At this moment, Jasmine called and said, “Hi, Mr. Wade, I’m sorry, I was at Lancaster for some business affairs this afternoon, and now I’m at the downstairs of your house, can you please come and get the invitation card from me?”
Charlie answered straight away, “Okay, I’ll go now!”
He hurried off the door and went downstairs.
Jasmine was in snazzynovel.com Rolls Royce, waiting for Charlie. When snazzynovel.com spotted him, snazzynovel.com hurriedly got out of the car and handed snazzynovel.com two invitation cards.
Charlie thanked snazzynovel.com graciously and returned home.
Back home, Jacob was still sulking and angry.
Claire tried to persuade him, “Dad, please, calm down. Grandma gave Harold the invitation card for snazzynovel.com to get to know a few people in the business industry and the upper-class social society, and also to build his own social network.”
Jacob sighed. “Huh, your grandma is always biased towards Harold and his father since we were young, snazzynovel.com always looks down on me, it’s always been that way since! Argh! I’m so pissed!”
Claire nodded helplessly. She also knew that snazzynovel.com grandma favored snazzynovel.com cousin and uncle more than snazzynovel.com family.
At first, snazzynovel.com grandma was biased towards snazzynovel.com uncle because grandma thought that snazzynovel.com father was incapable and soft.
Then, as a girl, grandma felt that snazzynovel.com had no inheritance right to the family business, hence snazzynovel.com was more indulgent towards Harold.
Her family’s status basically went down the drain after snazzynovel.com married Charlie.
At this moment, Charlie walked forward and handed two golden invitation cards to Jacob, and said, “Dad, I have the invitation card you dream of.”
“What!!”
As if a spring was installed on his buttocks, Jacob jumped up from the sofa in surprise!
He snatched the invitation off Charlie’s hand, hurriedly opened it and glanced at it. For a short while, snazzynovel.com was so excited that snazzynovel.com couldn’t utter a word.
Claire, who witnessed them, was utterly surprised too. She took the invitation card from snazzynovel.com father and realized that it was the genuine invitation card from the Treasure Pavilion.
“Wow, that’s amazing! Charlie, you really are my good son-in-law!” Jacob’s face was flushed with thrilling red, his voice was filled with astonishment.
He patted Charlie’s shoulder and said, “My daughter is so lucky to be your wife.”
“Huh, it’s just an invitation card, what’s so special about it?” Elaine snarled sarcastically.
Jacob glared at Elaine in annoyance, clutching the invitation card tightly. “What do you know, you dimwit? This is the invitation card from the Treasure Pavilion!”
Then, snazzynovel.com turned to Charlie and said, grinning ear to ear, “Come, sit down, let’s eat!”
He waved his hand at Claire and said, “Go and get the bottle of fine whiskey from the cabinet, I want to have a couple of drinks with my good son-in-law tonight.”
Elaine glared at Charlie when snazzynovel.com saw snazzynovel.com husband was happy and continued snazzynovel.com dinner quietly.
Claire was also very happy for snazzynovel.com father but snazzynovel.com was a little skeptical. When snazzynovel.com came back with the whiskey, snazzynovel.com bumped Charlie’s elbow as snazzynovel.com sat down and asked, “Where did you get the invitation card from, anyway?”
She heard about snazzynovel.com father’s sulking when snazzynovel.com was at the office earlier today and wanted to get one for him. Then only snazzynovel.com realized that the invitation card from the Treasure Pavilion was limited to every family!
How did Charlie do it?
Charlie smiled warmly and said, “I asked a friend, snazzynovel.com received two but snazzynovel.com didn’t want to go, so snazzynovel.com gave it to me.”
“Really?” Claire frowned, still not convinced. “How come I never heard you say that you have a friend with such a good family background? What’s his name?”
Charlie said faintly, “His last name is Quinton, I helped snazzynovel.com once in Antique Street the other day. Dad knows him…”
Jacob nodded. “Oh yes, he’s right, the Quinton guy even gave Charlie a jade bracelet that is worth five or six million!”
