Chapter 839


    ire originally did not know that Jacob had been drinking.


    However, after approaching Jacob, she could smell the strong scent of alcohol from his body. She


    could not help but feel very angry at her father at this time!


    She knew that her father normally enjoyed drinking. She has absolutely no opinion on his actions at


    all. However, the point was that her father told her that he would be going to several mahjong halls


    to look for her mother. Why did hee back drunk then?


    This...this simply proved that he did not go to look for her mother at all! He simply went out


    to...drink!


    When Jacob heard ire asking if he had been drinking, Jacob hurriedly covered his mouth and


    took a few steps back as he was in a state of panic. After that, he hurriedly said, "Don''t talk


    nonsense! I was not drinking!”


    "You are the one who is talking nonsense right now!" ire stomped her feet angrily, "I can smell


    the scent o f alcohol on your body! You did not have the scent of alcohol on your body when you left


    the house earlier but there is a strong smell of alcohol on your body now! You must have just been


    drinking!"


    As she spoke, ire fixed her eyes on Jacob''s cor and she noticed a few drops of oil on his


    cor. At this

    time, her eyes shed red as she said angrily, "Mom is already missing and we cannot find her at


    all. At this time, you did not even bother to go out to look for her but you are even eating and


    drinking happily all by yourself! Are you really that happy?" 1


    Jacob replied in an embarrassed manner, "Oh, my...I...I really did not..."


    ire replied angrily, "Dad, do you really think that I will believe you?" 1


    Jacob knew that there was no way that he would be able to get out of this situation. Therefore, he


    could only look at Charlie as he said, "Charlie was the one who asked me to go out for a drink!" 6


    After he spoke, Jacob hurriedly winked at Charlie as though he was implying that he was a good


    son-inw and he wanted him to bear the me for him first.


    Charlie quickly replied without any hesitation as he nodded and said, "That''s right. That''s right. Dad


    is


    right. I was the one who asked him out for a drink." 6


    In fact, Charlie knew very well that he did not drink a single drop of alcohol at all. On the other hand,


    Jacob was already extremely drunk. The more Jacob said that this was Charlie''s idea, the less


    ire would actually believe his words, i


    True enough, ire stomped her feet angrily before she said, "Dad, you are still pushing the me


    to Charlie at a time like this? Can''t you be more gentlemanly at a time like this?”


    Jacob had a gloomy expression on his face as he said," I am telling you the truth. I cannot do


    anything to help you if you refuse to believe me."


    After he was done speaking, Jacob hurriedly said, "Oh, I must really be getting old. It is just a little


    after ten o''clock at night and I am already feeling so tired and lethargic. I am going back to my


    bedroom to rest first."


    ire wanted to stop him but her father quickly ran away without looking back at all.


    At this time, ire looked at Charlie out of desperation as she said, "You are also to me! I called


    you to ask you about your whereabouts but you told me that you were looking around different


    mahjong halls when you actually took my dad out to eat and drink!" 1


    Charlie coughed slightly before he said, “Well, your dad said that he was feeling hungry and


    ufortable. How could I possibly drag an old man around the streets with me when he is


    hungry? Don''t you think that he would be vulnerable to danger if he fainted due to low blood sugar?"


    5


    "But you shouldn’t have lied to me! Couldn’t you have told me the truth and said that both of you


    were eating?"


    Charlie was at a loss for words and did not know how t o reply to ire''s sudden question. He felt


    that it was indeed a fact that he did not handle this matter properly. Charlie really did not expect


    ire to find out that Jacob had been drinking. If he knew that this would happen, he would not


    have brought Jacob to the barbeque stall at all. s


    Therefore, Charlie could only apologize sincerely as he said, "I am really sorry, my dear wife. I


    shouldn’t have lied to you about this matter. However, dad told me not to tell you about it so I


    couldn’t tell you the truth over the phone." 2


    Charlie did not feel guilty at all when he said this. 1


    After all, they were simply pushing the me to one another. Since the old man was not here, it was


    only natural for Charlie to push the me back to him. 5


    ire believed in Charlie’s words immediately and she really thought that this was all her father’s


    idea. She knew that Charlie must have been forced to lie to her because he could not possibly tell


    her the truth when he was sitting right next to her father.


    Although she was not as angry, she still felt seriously wronged at this time. She sighed before she


    broke down emotionally and said, "Charlie, my mother is missing. My father does not care about her


    at all, and i t seems as though you do not care about her either! How am I going to find her on my


    own? If something bad happened to my mother, how could I possibly live with it for the rest of my


    life? I will never be able to forgive myself until the day I die!" 5


    Charlie hurriedlyforted ire as he said, "Don''t think too much about it. Nothing bad will


    happen to your mother."
