Chapter 16 Aren’t you short of money?

Was she saying it was his fault?

Charlie’s anger finally faded away. He honestly had no idea that his little wife was living in such hardship.

He bent down, took out his wallet from the bedside table, then pulled out a credit card while asking her, Gambling is a game of both winning and losing. Aren’t you afraid that losing will worsen your already difficult life?”

Nancy, however, had great confidence, so she proudly smiled, “Ha–ha, you may not know. I never lose when gambling on car racing! Except for the luxury car game, I’ve never lost in any other games!”

It was her confidence in gambling!

Charlie walked towards her with the credit card in hand, “So, who won the gambling on car racing with Young Master Warren just now?”

Nancy raised her chin in pride, “I did! The stakes were high this time. I won 1 million dollars! But Young Master Warren refused to pay and…”

She didn’t finish, because she was afraid that it would make Charlie angry.

Charlie was slightly startled. He raised his eyes and looked at Nancy. He had heard of Young Master Warren, the “Car King of City Nustin.” How did Nancy manage to defeat him?

Hmm….

That was impressive!

Nancy felt a bit nervous being looked at by him. She awkwardly curled her lips, “Um, I–I want to go to bed.)

Just as she was about to turn around, her arm was suddenly grabbed and something was stuffed into her

Charlie raised his hand and lightly tapped her forehead, “Aren’t you short of money?”

“I–I am short of money!”

Nancy felt flustered. “But I can’t accept yours! A decent person loves money in a proper way. I can earn money by myself.”

Saying that, Nancy tried to return the credit card to Charlie but found him instantly displeased.

Even the air around him seemed to chill!

Nancy was so cold that she had goosebumps. Her lips trembled a few times. Although she was scared, she still insisted, “I really can’t accept your money. Y–You’re my… brother–in–law…”

She said the last few words very softly, almost inaudibly. But Charlie was more displeased

He stared at Nancy without doing anything. Nancy was so scared that her legs went weak. She took two steps back, bumping into the sofa and sitting down. But she still li

She felt that Charlie was extremely frightening at this moment, as if he wanted to swallow her whole.

“D–Don’t look at me like this…”

Suddenly, Charlie bent down, slapping his hands forcefully on both sides of Nancy’s shoulder, trapping her between himself and the sofa..

Nancy’s whole body trembled in scare. She avolded his gaze, afraid to look at him.

Charlie’s voice carried a hint of threat, “It was you who had the wedding with. It was your name that is on the marriage certificate. Now you are saying I’m your brother–in–law? Hmm… are you and your sister planning to share a husband?”

“No way!”

Nancy fearlessly met his gaze head-on and said confidently, “When I went through that wedding, I was threatened by my sister. When we got the marriage certificate, I was threatened by you. No matter what, everyone knows that your wife is Vivian, not me!” fted her eyes cautiously and kept a vigilant eye on Charlie.
