The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Chapter 3755



"This is a gift for Charlie?" Elaine was confused at Jacob's explanation. "Jacob, what do you mean?"

Jacob quickly explained, "Charlie, didn't you help Ms. Jane with her villa's Feng Shui today? Ms. Jane dropped by the association today to express her gratitude. She's very thankful for your service today, and was impressed by your professionalism. She wanted to pay you for the service, but you refused to accept it. Ms. Jane felt bad and decided to buy this car under my name instead. She directly shipped the car to the association and requested me to accept her gratitude!"Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Upon learning the truth, Claire began to lecture her father. "Dad, how can you act on your own accord? Why did you accept such an expensive gift for Charlie?"

Jacob replied innocently, "Claire, I didn't plan to accept it, but the car was already under my name. Even if I reject it, the car still legally belongs to me. I was stuck in a difficult position too..."

With that, he hurriedly turned to Charlie and explained, "Charlie, I didn't plan to accept it on your behalf, but I had no choice. Ms. Jane was too thoughtful. Knowing that you wouldn't accept the money, she directly purchased the car in my name and gave it to me. She claimed to dislike owing people

favors the most. If I didn't accept the car, she wouldn't sponsor our local art exhibition anymore. Mr. Bay strongly advised me to accept the car as well..."

At this, Claire got a little angry. "Dad! Even if Ms. Jane directly purchased the car in your name, you should've at least called Charlie and asked for his opinion! How can you accept it on his behalf before telling him?"

Jacob felt embarrassed by Claire's admonition. "Ah, I... W-well, I was afraid of letting Ms. Jane down... You see, Ms. Jane isn't just Charlie's client. She's also an important patron to our association..."

Charlie smiled gently and finally said, "Claire, it's fine. Dad had no choice but to accept the car anyway. You should stop blaming him."

Jacob was relieved, touched to hear that from Charlie. He said excitedly, "Oh, Charlie! You're so understanding!"

Then, he added carefully, "Say, Charlie, about the car... What should I do with it?"

Jacob was very nervous when he asked the question. He was worried that Charlie might tell him to return the car.

Jacob was a man of pride. He truly liked the Rolls-Royce Cullinan from the bottom of his heart.

When he drove the car home earlier, he noticed that almost everyone on the street was staring at his car for a long time. No one dared to bully him on the road.

No one dared to honk at him, either!

His driving experience was

completely different from before. When he drove his BMW 530 before, he was always bullied on the road particularly by those with cars more expensive than his. The road bully would tailgate him ruthlessly and sometimes almost crash into him. Usually, he would give in and give way to them.

Jacob had always been a slow person, and thus always drove slowly. He would frequently bump

into impatient drivers, who would t

then honk at him nonstop for his slow driving. They would even flash the high beams at him constantly.

The worst ones would constantly flash and blink the high beams at him. When they finally overtook his car, they would roll down their window and yell profanities at him.

For that, Jacob assumed that most drivers in the world all had road rage.

However, things were different when he drove the Rolls-Royce Cullinan home earlier. While he was on his way from the Calligraphy and

Painting Association to Thom

First, he noticed that all the drivers had been miraculously cured of their road rage issues.

Whenever he turned on the signal lights, even if the car was a dozen of meters away, the car behind would immediately slow down and let him change lanes first.
