The Amazing Son-in-Law: Chapters 811-815

Chapter 811

Elaine Ma stared at the cash machine screen, shocked. The numbers displayed—over 20 billion—made her feel the world had ended. She couldn't comprehend Charlie Wade's immense deposit.

“How is this possible? Twenty billion! Am I crazy, or is Charlie Wade crazy? Where did he get so much money?”

Her hands trembled. Twenty billion wasn't two hundred dollars, or even two million! She'd never imagined such wealth. Had he somehow tricked Bill Gates?

Her initial impulse was to call Charlie, but she quickly realized the risk of exposure. Before he knew, she needed to seize as much money as possible.

Immediately, she accessed the transfer function, entered her account number, and hesitated before entering the transfer amount. Excitement fueled her decision: 21,900,000,000. She planned to transfer the entire amount.

She ignored the source of the money; it was hers for the taking. Years of struggling with Jacob and Claire were all for a little money for her retirement. After losing her previous two million dollars, she understood the agony of financial loss. Now, her possessiveness overwhelmed her. With this money, her life would change drastically. She pressed the confirmation button.

21.9 billion! Hers! She, Elaine Ma, would be a billionaire!

But then, a message appeared: "Automated teller machine transfers are limited to $1 million per day, and cash withdrawals are limited to $100,000. For larger transactions, please visit the counter."

“Damn it!” she cursed. “One million? That's ridiculous! It would take 365 million a day to transfer this all. This method would take decades!”

She withdrew her card and headed to the bank. The money had to be transferred, no matter what.

Chapter 812

Elaine Ma's approach was always swift and decisive, leaving no money behind. Entering the bank lobby, an enthusiastic teller greeted her.

"Hello, what can I help you with?"

Elaine Ma waved her black gold card. "I want to make a transfer!"

The teller gasped upon seeing the card. Citibank staff received extensive training, including detailed information about the black gold card—Citibank's highest tier, limited to one hundred worldwide, and only five in China. Each cardholder was a super VIP.

She never expected to see one in Aurouss Hill. She bowed deeply. “Dear distinguished guest, please follow me to the VIP reception room! I'll ask our president to assist you personally!”

Elaine Ma, relishing the feeling of importance, urged her on, threatening to get the president to fire her if she was neglected. The teller, panicked, quickly led her to the VIP room. Water was offered while the teller rushed to the president's office, bursting in without knocking.

"Mr. President! A VIP has arrived!"

The president, displeased by the interruption, scolded her. The teller breathlessly explained the situation: a black gold cardholder.

The president shot upright, astonished. He'd never seen a real black gold card. The teller confirmed it was indeed a black gold card.

The president frantically straightened his appearance and rushed to the VIP room. He found Elaine Ma, who was sitting arrogantly on the sofa, already imagining herself as a super-rich woman.

Chapter 813

The president, recognizing the black gold card, bowed deeply. “Hello, honorable black gold card guest, I am the bank president, Lee Tomas. Please call me Lee.”

Elaine Ma, haughtily, complained about the ATM's daily transfer limit of one million dollars. Lee apologized profusely.

He explained that ATMs were for ordinary people, and that someone of her status wouldn't use such a machine. He flattered her, emphasizing the VIP treatment she deserved.

Elaine Ma, pleased, complimented Lee. He offered to personally handle the transfer. She presented her own card and the black gold card, instructing him to transfer 21.9 billion from the black card to her ICBC card.

Lee was shocked. “Madam…are you sure you want to transfer 21.9 billion?!”

Elaine Ma impatiently confirmed, threatening to destroy the bank if he didn't hurry. Lee, swallowing hard, inserted the black card. Elaine Ma entered Charlie Wade's lunar birthday as the password—it was correct. He saw the balance: over 21.9 billion. He was amazed but lacked the authority to check the cardholder's identity. Black gold card privacy was absolute.

Chapter 814

Lee confirmed the transfer details with Elaine Ma. She impatiently urged him to hurry. After confirming, Lee hit 'Confirm,' requesting her password again. Elaine Ma entered it.

Lee announced the transfer was complete. Elaine Ma checked her phone but the money hadn't yet arrived. Lee explained that processing such a large sum would take time, possibly up to a day.

Elaine Ma, furious, threatened Lee again. He explained that this delay wasn't under his control. She regretted not transferring in smaller increments. Lee suggested she wait in the VIP room.

Elaine Ma impatiently asked for the best coffee while waiting.

Meanwhile, at home, Jacob Wilson was enjoying tea with Charlie Wade. Jacob proudly explained his "bargain" on a high-quality tea from a tea farmer's granddaughter online. Charlie Wade immediately recognized it as a scam.

Chapter 815

Charlie Wade received a text message confirming a 21.9 billion RMB transfer from his black gold card. He was stunned. The card held his earnings, totaling a little over 21.9 billion. Who had done this?

He initially suspected the Wade family, but that was unlikely. Theft seemed more probable, but the card's encryption made this unlikely. Then a realization struck him: Elaine Ma.

Furious, he called Stephen Thompson, reporting the theft of 21.9 billion. Thompson, while surprised by the amount, explained that the money would take some time to fully transfer out of the account due to banking regulations and central bank review. Charlie Wade knew it had only been a few minutes. His suspicion solidified.
