Chapter 30
"You must have made this, Suzie. I knew as soon as I tasted it! It tastes the same as how you used to make it!" Not knowing if he was doing this on purpose or not, Kelvin took a bite of tofu and smiled.
Suzie glanced at her husband's increasingly dark expression and smiled teasingly, "Have more if you enjoy it. The truth is our whole family is indebted to you!"
"You shouldn't thank me for being your cousin!" Kelvin waved her thanks away. "It's just a bit of money. I didn't need it." He said nonchalantly.
A bit of money?
Franklin and Suzie exchanged glances. How much money does he have to easily disregard millions?
Noticing his parents' exchange, Jacob was moved. He remembered what Jerry had told him before. He shook his head and smirked.
"Looks like you're quite the success story!" Suzie smiled widely at him, as if proud of him.
"It's just a small matter. Not worth mentioning." Kelvin waved her away modestly. "However…"
He turned towards Jacob who was as expressionless as ever. "Jacob, you've just returned. You're probably still job hunting. If you want to get into the Paramount Chamber of Commerce, I can introduce you."
Before his father could say anything, Jacob shook his head. "I don't have any plans to look for a job just yet."
Now that they were talking about his son's future, Franklin set aside his pride and blurted out. "You be quiet! Your uncle has graciously offered you a chance at a job in the Chamber of Commerce…"
"Dad, I think the wine has had enough time to breathe. I'll go get it."
Jacob stood up and left the table. Even if he wanted to, they wouldn't accept him anyways.
"Haha… It's good for young people to think outside the box!" Kelvin's eyes flashed with disdain as he smiled.
This was their only chance. After this, he would never bring up the subject of introducing Jacob into the chamber no matter how much Franklin begged him. The latter was so anxious that it made the expensive wine taste like vinegar in his mouth.
Suzie gritted her teeth in anger at her husband's embarrassing antics. novelbin
After glaring at Franklin, she picked up her wine glass and stood up. "Kelvin, here's a toast to you. I'll forever remember how you've helped us!"
"Suzie, what are you saying!" Kelvin got to his feet. He frowned, "We grew up together. How could I stand by and watch knowing that you were struggling?"
Having said that, Franklin was not an ungrateful person. He raised his glass. "Even though we did not ask for six million, but in any case, we are extremely thankful for it!"
"Hold on a minute!" Kelvin's eyes widened. "What do you mean six million? I don't understand what
you're saying!"
The air was heavy and quiet for a minute before Suzie said teasingly, "Kelvin, didn't you send someone over with six million yesterday?"
"Yes! You sent two people over. The first came to my stall with five million. And the second was to our house with one million!" Franklin added as he nodded in agreement
