The Charismatic Charlie Wade - Season 7 Episode 10

It was possible that Hannah would make a run for it if she really had that much money in hand. After all, she and Elaine were two peas in a pod. They were greedy and loved money more than anything.

‘Mother is right,’ Christopher thought. ‘Now that me, our children, and even my mother have become burdens, it’s possible that she has chosen to run away with the money!’

A layer of resentment and gloom surfaced on Christopher’s face. He said in a deep voice, “Let me call Elaine and ask.”

He grabbed his phone and called Elaine.

His call was answered almost immediately.

“Hey, Elaine, it’s your brother-in-law, Christopher…”

Elaine gritted her teeth in disdain when his voice came from the other end of the line!

This fucking old dog! He must have known about Hannah’s plot to scam her!

Maybe he was the real mastermind behind all this!

When she thought about the terrible losses she had suffered today, she wanted to curse him at the top of her lungs!

However, when her thought shifted to the fact that Hannah was on her way to the coal mine, she suppressed her anger and said disdainfully, “Christopher Wilson, my husband and I were kicked out of the Wilson family, remember? Why are you calling yourself ‘brother-in-law’?”

Christopher huffed a heavy breath of dismay, but since he had called her for an important reason, he knew that he couldn’t annoy her. Hence, he cleared his throat and said sheepishly, “Sorry, Elaine, I

misspoke.”

Elaine snorted. “Alright, I don’t have time for your bullshit. Talk, what do you want from me?”

Christopher asked hastily, “Elaine, have you seen Hannah today?”

Elaine quickly denied, “No! I’ve not seen her since we met at Summer’s house the other day. What happened?”

“No?!” Christopher yelped, and then cursed in his heart, ‘Bitch, who do you think you’re fooling, you lying bitch? Hannah has been broadcasting to me live the entire day today! She reported to me when she arrived at your house, she reported to me when she was in your BMW, and she reported to me when she was playing mahjong with you. In fact, she even reported to me how much money and assets she had won from you! And you dare to say that you didn’t see her?!’

Christopher was exceptionally furious, but he swallowed his fury, and tried again, “When Hannah went out this morning, she said she was going to play mahjong with you. Are you sure you didn’t meet her?”

Elaine was rather chagrined. The three women who played mahjong with her today along with their gangster had been sent to the coal mine. If their family members somehow found out that their disappearance was related to her, they might get revenge on her. Worse, she wouldn’t be able to defend her innocence if they called the police!

So, she had no choice but to deny it to the end!

She said impatiently, “Hey, you’re funny, do you know that? How can I not know if I have seen her or not? The answer is still NO! No, I didn’t meet her today!”

Christopher didn’t care if he would be exposed. He started to ask with a frantic tone, “Elaine, please don’t hang up. Tell me honestly, please, did you see her? Where did she go? At noon, she sent me a

message saying that she was playing mahjong with you at a friend’s house and she even told me that she had won Charlie’s Thompson First villa! How could you not have met her?”

“Christopher, are you trying to make a joke here? It’s not funny, by the way! Since when did she win our villa? Besides, I said I haven’t seen Hannah today, do you understand? I can’t stand her, how could I have played mahjong with her?”

Speaking of which, she figured that Christopher must be behind the scam, so she gritted her teeth and exclaimed, “Christopher, it’s possible that your wife has eloped with someone and used me as a smokescreen! I heard a rumor that she used to frequent a gigolo at the KTV lounge who is about the same age as your son Harold. I even heard that they wanted to save money and run away together!”
