ire nced at ine and said, “Mom, can you please stop making things difficult for Dad? He doesn’t usually spend much money. Why are you confronting him now when he just wants to treat a few friends to dinner?”


    ine responded, “I’m just trying to save money for our family! Are we really the type of family that should be spending twenty thousand dors on a single meal?”


    With a fierce re directed at Jacob, ine added, “No matter what, you need to give me that money today, whether you like it or not!”


    Deep down, ire understood her mother’s intentions.


    She recognized that ine was quite materialistic and obsessed with money. If her father refused to hand over the cash, it would be nearly impossible for him to leave the house peacefully.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Quickly, ire interjected, “Mom, please stop making this hard for Dad. You want ten thousand dors, right? I’ll give it to you.”


    “Okay!” ine eximed with excitement, “Then you’d better transfer that money to me right away!”


    ire nodded and pulled out her cell phone to transfer ten thousand dors to ine.


    ine eagerly checked her phone as soon as the transfer wasplete, a grin spreading across her face when she confirmed the money had arrived.


    Without wasting a moment, ine texted her group of five friends: [Sisters! I’m joining you all for the facial this afternoon!]


    One of her friends replied: [Wait! Didn’t you say earlier that you had ns for this afternoon?]


    ine quickly responded: [I had nned to go shopping, but my legs are hurting a bit. So I decided to skip shopping and head to the beauty salon for some facials and rxation instead!]


    ire couldn’t help but feel a sense of helplessness as she watched her mother’s reaction after receiving the money. Little did she know that ine had already depleted their entire family’s savings.


    At that moment, Charlie’s phone began to vibrate on the dining table.


    It was a call from Jasmine.


    Charlie answered the phone, and Jasmine’s gentle, pleasant voice came through, “Master Wade, I’ll be at your house in less than ten minutes. When would be a good time for you toe out?”


    Charlie replied, “Please hold on for a moment. I’lle down after I clean up the dishes once my family finishes breakfast.”


    “Alright, I’ll be waiting for you outside.”


    Jasmine felt a flicker of concern upon hearing Charlie’s response.


    Master Wade was such an aplished and capable man. Why did he still have to do the dishes at home? It seemed so disrespectful to him!<fn8ee2> Follow current nov?ls on Find[?]ovel</fn8ee2>


    In her heart, Jasmine thought that if Charlie were her man, she would never allow him to handle any housework!


    To her, a man should focus on building his career, and when he returns home, he should be treated like royalty by his wife. How could a man be made to do household chores?


    On one hand, Jasmine felt strongly about Charlie being undervalued, and on the other, she was eager to be the woman who would look after him at home.


    As soon as Charlie hung up, ire asked, “Is your friending to pick you up?”


    “Yes,” Charlie confirmed, “My friend’s granddaughter is here to get me.”


    ire nodded and without hesitation said, “Then you should go now. I’ll handle the dishes today. Don’t keep her waiting!”


    Charlie quickly responded, “My dear wife, it’s fine to let her wait a bit. I’ll leave as soon as I finish with the dishes.”


    ire insisted, “Oh,e on. Let me do the dishes today. You should leave since you have things to do. Don’t make her wait too long!”
