The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Elaine stood at the roadside of the exit at the airport and kept calling Jacob. However, her calls could not get through.

She cursed, "This damn Jacob! I don't know where he has gone. He's not answering my calls!"

Claire asked her, "Mom, are you sure you told him what time to come?"

Elaine said in exasperation, "Of course, I told him clearly. He also promised me over the phone. I don't know why he hasn't shown up and isn't answering my calls. He's really unreliable!"

Claire also hurriedly took out her cell phone and called Jacob, but as Elaine had mentioned, he still did not answer his phone.

She said with a very nervous expression, "Dad couldn't have met with an accident, right? It's not his bedtime yet, so why isn't he answering our calls?"

Charlie hurriedly comforted, "Honey, don't be so negative. Dad is in good health, so how could he have met with an accident? Perhaps it's just because he has fallen asleep. I think we should go home first and take a look!"

"Yes!" Claire quickly agreed and said, "We should hurry up and go home. If Dad is not home, we should go out and look for him or call the police as a last resort!"

Elaine, who was aside, said with great displeasure, "Go home? How are we going to go home? Your father did not drive over to pick us up, so how are we going to go back?"

Claire subconsciously said, "We can take a taxi back."

“Take a taxi?” Elaine said with an exaggerated expression, “Your mother is a celebrity. I was the number one person in Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in New York. I took a private jet back and forth from the United States, but after getting off the plane, you're not letting me sit in a Rolls-Royce or even just a Mercedes or a BMW, but you're expecting me to take a taxi?! How embarrassing is that?!"noveldrama

Claire said helplessly, "Oh, Mom, why are you still talking about these things at such a time?! Let's hurry home first. Our priority is to find out what's going on with Dad!"

After saying that, Claire did not wait for Elaine to reply. Instead, she hurriedly reached out her hand to stop a roadside taxi.

When Elaine Saw Charlie and Claire pulling the car door open and getting ready to go in, she said with a depressed expression, "Claire, can you at least call for a luxury cab instead of a broken Jetta?! Look at how shabby it is!"

Claire could not help but feel a little angry at her mother's attitude and said, "You

can wait here if you want to take a luxury car. Charlie and I will go back first."

After saying that, Claire opened the car door and got into the car.

Once Elaine saw this, she lost her insistence just now and could only get into the passenger seat resentfully.

Once she had gotten into the

passenger seat, she frowned and covered her nose before saying to the driver, "Mister, why do I smell such a strong cigarette smell in your taxi?"

The taxi driver casually said, "Cigarette smell?"

"Yes!" Elaine replied rudely, "It's full of cigarette smell. Can't you smell it? Is that a

nose above your mouth?"

The taxi driver snorted. "The cigarette smell is naturally because I smoke cigarettes. What's the big deal?"

Elaine said in exasperation, "How can you drive a taxi and smoke in the car?! Your service is too lousy, right?"
