It was to the point that he wanted to divorce his wife, Elaine, but she didn't give him the chance, so naturally, he despised her even more now.
Although his intention was good, Charlie didn't think that it would be appropriate for him, especially when it cto giving Elaine a fake set of skincare products. It was quite embarrassing to present someone else with something fake.
It was not because he was afraid that Elaine would find out that the products were fake, but instead, he was more afraid of what his wife would think of him if she found out that he had presented her mother with fake goods. 4 Thus, he turned to Jacob and said, "Father, don't worry about it. Why don't you quickly send the gift basket to Aunt Matilda?" Jacob nodded and replied, "By the way Charlie, I won't be having dinner at htonight. It just so happens that my university friends and I are having dinner together tonight." 1 Charlie answered, "Okay. In that case, I'll head back hfirst." 5 Charlie then proceeded to drive back to Thompson First. As he drove his car into the yard, he saw his wife, Claire's car parked at home.

Therefore, he needed to cup with a suitable explanation to explain how he had gotten the two gift baskets. 5 Now that he had raised the story of being able to check other people's Feng Shui alignment, he decided to just stick with this story.

Charlie smiled lightly and replied, "I was thinking of trading my services for cosmetic goods. Since they are of top-notch quality, I wanted you and mother to try them." Claire was about to reply, but Elaine jumped off the couch in excitement, ignoring the fact that she was not wearing her slippers, and ran all the way toward them barefooted. "Oh, my dear son-in-law, did you really get the famous caviar skincare products for me?!" 10
Charlie nodded and handed her a gift basket. Elaine took a good look at the gift basket without saying anything and immediately sat down on the ground as she opened the gift basket excitedly The gift basket was filled with all sorts of cosmetics.
