The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 4654

Xiao Churan noticed that her mother, Ma Lan, was very determined, which made her feel a bit helpless. However, after thinking it over, she realized that it was actually better for her mother to stay in the United States rather than return home. Xiao had classes five days a week, leaving her little time to spend with her mother. This would only create more problems for Charlie Wade.

So, Xiao said, “Mom, on Friday after class, we’ll drive to New York, and I’ll book you a ticket for Sunday.”

“That’s wonderful!” Ma Lan exclaimed. “Quick, help me book the ticket so it doesn’t sell out!”

Charlie Wade chimed in, “Mom, let me help you with that.”

Ma Lan eagerly agreed, “Okay, thank you, good son-in-law!”

Charlie Wade quickly took out his phone, found a flight from New York for Sunday, and bought a ticket for Ma Lan.

Soon, Ma Lan received the confirmation for her ticket. When she saw it was confirmed, her face lit up with joy, like someone who had been away for years finally getting a chance to return home.

Then, Ma Lan carefully put away the special necklace Charlie Wade had given her. She turned to the couple and said, “Oh, I have an appointment to go out, and I’m going to be late. You two enjoy your time together. I’ll head out now!”

Without waiting for a response, she quickly put on her sneakers and left the room.

Once Ma Lan was gone, Xiao Churan turned to Charlie Wade with a puzzled look. “Husband, do you think something seems off with my mom?”

Charlie Wade asked curiously, “What do you think is wrong with Mom? I feel fine. She’s just excited to be back home.”

Xiao Churan shook her head seriously and said, “It’s not about coming back. It’s the necklace you gave her. Something isn’t right.”

“Necklace?” Charlie was confused. “That necklace was bought from a store. There’s no way it could be fake.”

Xiao Churan quickly replied, “Silly husband, I’m not saying you bought a fake! I mean, my mother’s reaction to the necklace is strange.”

She continued to explain, “Husband, I know my mother well. She loves to show off. If you gave her a valuable gift, like a fancy sofa, she would want to show it off to everyone. But when you gave her that expensive necklace, she didn’t wear it right away. Instead, she put it away… Isn’t that odd?”

After hearing Xiao Churan’s thoughts, Charlie couldn’t help but admire her. She really understood her mother’s personality. With Ma Lan’s character, she would never hide something valuable.

It was unusual for Ma Lan to carefully put the necklace away. However, Charlie understood why she did it.

He realized that Ma Lan was probably thinking that the better the necklace was, the more money she could get by selling it later. She likely wanted to keep it in perfect condition to sell it for a good price.

So,

Charlie Wade smiled at Xiao Churan and said, “I think Mom might feel it’s too late for her to wear it. Even if she takes it out, no one will notice. Plus, she’s joining the running team, and the exercises will be pretty tough. So, wearing jewelry isn’t a good idea.”

Xiao Churan shook his head and replied seriously, “I don’t think it’s that simple. Just wait and see if my mom wears that necklace tomorrow. If she doesn’t, then I think she plans to sell it.”
