Chapter 437 In Charge of Our Finances (1/2)
Carla glanced at Terence as he walked in and kept stuffing money into her wallet. She had never imagined in her whole life that she would experience having such a stuffed wallet. That was why she was struggling to keep the banknotes inside.
”What are you doing? Are you really going to fill your wallet with all that money? Don't you have any bank card like a debit card? You can also pay via mobile phone thru apps,” Terence pointed out.
Terence looked at their cash-covered bed and smiled helplessly. He could barely even sit at the edge of the bed with the wads of cash around him.
”They are not the same! Spending cold hard cash gives me this special warm feeling,” Carla replied. Upon seeing that her wallet was already filled up, Carla had finally stopped putting money in and placed her wallet into her handbag.
Terence tapped his temple for moment and then took out his cellphone. ”Well, some people directly transferred some cash gifts through my phone. How about I transfer them to you now?” He asked.
When she placed her handbag on her bedside drawer, Carla's ears perked up. She immediately turned around with sparkling eyes. When she saw the amount of money on his mobile phone, Carla couldn't believe her eyes. 'That's got to be a lot of zeroes!' She thought to herself.
But she decided to act proper and pretended to be polite, ”Ahem, dear husband. You don't need to transfer all of them to me. Maybe just a little bit will be enough for me.”
Terence smiled, took his wife into his arms, and then started tapping his mobile phone. Carla stared at him wide-eyed. He just transferred all of that money to her! He said, ”Carla, all of these are for you. Feel free to use them at will and there's no need to save for anything. And in the future, you should drop that frugal habit of yours. Otherwise, to whom should I give all the large amounts of cash I earn?”
”Hmph! You are so cheeky, Terence! It seems like my husband is complaining because I don't know how to spend money!” Carla rolled her eyes, snorting. But even so, she took out her cellphone and accepted the money Terence transferred to her.
”Hey Carla,” Terence spoke as a playful smirk appeared on his lips. ”Want to make a bet? Once we have returned from our honeymoon, I'll give you a bank card. If you manage to spend all the money in that card, then you win. What do you say?”
Terence knew that Carla had always been frugal. She would check price tags first before buying. If she knew she couldn't afford something, she would never buy it.
Carla's confidence began to ooze. She mirrored his smirk, ”So what if I win?”
She placed her mobile phone on the table and crossed her arms, as if she was challenging him.
”Feisty, eh? Then if you win, you'll be in charge of the finances in our family,”
Terence replied without any hesitation.
”You serious?” Carla gasped in disbelief.
