The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family



Charlie made a silent wish amidst the sound of Claire's singing before he blew out the candles.

After that, Claire spoke up, "Husband, close your eyes.

I have a gift for you!"

Charlie nodded, and he gently closed his eyes.

Claire took out a gift box from behind her, and she held it up with both hands before placing it into Charlie's hands as she smiled and said, "Okay! You can open your eyes now!"

Charlie lowered his head, and he saw that there was actually a watch box placed in his hands.

There was a simple line of English letters written on the box. Charlie recognized it at a glance, and it turned out to be Patek Philippe.

Charlie looked at Claire in surprise and spoke up," Wife, why did you buy such an expensive gift for me?"

Claire said shyly, "It's not expensive. Hurry up and open it to see if you like it!"

Charlie nodded before he opened up the package. There was a Patek Philippe Nautilus watch lying serenely inside the box.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

At this time, Claire said softly from the side, "In Patek

Philippe, the Nautilus is considered as a relatively entry-level watch model. I will buy you an even better one when I have completed Emgrand Group's project and settled all of the upstream and downstream payments!"

Charlie hurriedly said, "My dear wife, the price of the Nautilus should have been increased to cost more than half a million dollars now, right? The prices of watches have been raised too ridiculously now. Don't buy me such an expensive watch in the future anymore. No matter how good a mechanical watch is, it would never be as accurate as the time on the cell phone."

Claire laughed and said, "How is that

the same? The reason why men wear watches is not to look at the time, but mainly because it is a kind of temperament. All sophisticated men would have several good

watches nowadays. They would

always choose a different watch to attend different occasions and to match it with different clothes. I do not want my husband to get picked on when you go out in the future. This is especially so since your customers are all wealthy people. If they see that you are constantly not wearing a watch, they would definitely think that your wife is

reluctant to buy it for you!"

Charlie could not help but feel a little moved when he heard this, and he smiled and said, "Thank you, Wife! You are the most considerate."

When Elaine, who was aside, heard

I.ne

this, she was speechless, and she then exclaimed, "Oh, my God! Just a watch like this that looks rather common in appearance already costs more than five hundred thousand dollars?!" 2

Claire said seriously, "Mom, this is a classic model. It is not only expensive in our country, but it's the same all over the world."

Elaine touched her heart before she spoke up, "This is equivalent to a BMW being worn on the wrist!"

Claire laughed and said, "If you say that, there is also a luxury villa that is being worn on the wrist, then!"

Charlie said seriously, "Wife, it is enough to buy just one watch. Don't buy me another one in the future."

Claire smiled and said, "Whether I am going to buy another one in the future will firstly depend on my mood, and secondly, I'll have to see if I can make money to buy it first. Anyway, what you say does not count." 1

Charlie smiled and nodded. "Okay, fine. I'll listen to you."

Claire was very satisfied, and she said, "That's more like it!"

After saying that, Claire hurriedly took the watch out of the box before she said to Charlie, "I'll help you put it on. From now on, you should try and wear it every day. Don't stop wearing it after just a few days."

Charlie laughed and said, "My wife gave it to me, so of course I'll have to wear it every day!"

Claire nodded. After that, she looked

at the watch on Charlie's wrist as she exclaimed, "Nice! It looks good! I t is low-key, yet very connotative. I is much better as compared to those big gold watches that those wealthy people like the most! Husband, you don't have to take it off. You can just wear the watch when we go to the concert later!" 8
