Chapter 882
Charlie smiled before he said, "Don''t worry. I''ll just give it my all and ask them for help. Who knows
if someone will agree to help me? They are much more powerful and more capable than we are, so
they''ll definitely have stronger connections and contacts than we do. Perhaps they''ll be able to
figure out what happened to Mom."
ire breathed a sigh of relief and she said gratefully, "Charlie, thank you so much for everything!”
Charlie smiled as he said, "Silly girl. I''m your husband, why are you being so polite to me?" s
As he spoke, Charlie patted her gently on her shoulder before he said, "Let''s go down and have
dinner first, okay? After dinner, I''ll go out and look for some of my friends to see if they would be
willing to help me. If they aren''t willing to help me, then I’ll beg them for help. No matter what it is, I
promise to bring Mom back home safely!" 6
ire nodded repeatedly and she felt a lot moreforted and relieved at this time.
Before this, ire always felt that she was the only one in the family who cared about her mother’s
disappearance. However, now that Charlie was standing with her so resolutely and since he was so
willing to help her, she naturally felt much more relieved. 8
Charlie could not help but feel very sorry and distressed for ire at this time. He could tell that
ire had really been very worried about ine’s disappearance throughout all this time. If he did
not bring ine back as soon as possible, Charlie was afraid that something bad would happen to
ire before ine even met with any major incidents in the detention center, i
Therefore, he decided to implement the n that he hade up with tomorrow. He had already
figured out a n so that ine could be released from the detention center the day after tomorrow.
Afterforting ire, Charlie brought her downstairs to the dining room.
Jacob and Matilda had already prepared a table full of dishes in the dining room.
At this time, Paul was standing aside as he opened one of the precious and valuable Kweichow
Moutai aged liquor. When he saw Charlie and ire walking down the stairs, he hurriedly asked,
"Mr. Wade, would you like to have a drink with me?"
Charlie smiled slightly before he said, "Okay, I''ll apany you and have a drink or two with you
tonight." 4
ire quickly reminded him in a low voice, “Aren''t you going out to look for your friends after
dinner? You shouldn''t be drinking now. Otherwise, you won''t b e able to driveter!" 9
Charlie smiled before he said, "It''s okay, I''ll take a cab out after I drink. Since this is the first time
Paul ising to our house as a guest, it would be rude of me not to drink with him." 9
When ire heard Charlie’s words, she nodded slightly before she said, "Okay then. As long as
you won''t be drinking and driving." 5
At this time, Jacob walked out of the kitchen with a pot of minced beef soup before cing it on the
dining table. When he saw ire, he smiled before he said, "Oh, ire! You really have to try all
the dishes that your Aunt Hall has prepared. I''ve secretly tried a few of the dishes just now and I can
tell you that her cooking is simply amazing!"
ire did not have any appetite to eat at all, especially since this meal was prepared by her
mother’s love rival from back then. Therefore, she did not even want to eat anything at all. 9
However, since she had to be polite and give her father face, she could only sit down at the dining
table.
At this time, Matilda took off her apron before she walked out of the kitchen with the bowls and
chopsticks in her hands. When she saw that Charlie and ire were already at the dining table, she
smiled before she said, "I''m sorry for making all of you wait for so long for dinner to be served."
After that, she looked at Charlie and ire before she said, "You must both be hungry by now, am I
right?
Why don’t you pick up your chopsticks and try some o f the dishes that I''ve made?"
There were all sorts of home-cooked dishes from Sudbury on the dining table and they were all
cooked and prepared by Matilda.
There was steamed fish in vinegar sauce, braised shrimp, braised pork belly, stewed fish head with
bean curd, sauteed eel and prawns, and so forth, s

The presentation and looks of these dishes were really amazing, and they looked just like the
dishes prepared by the professional chefs at the restaurants.
Matilda could not help but feel a hint of regret as she said, "There was originally another stir-fried
shrimp dish that is my specialty, but we did not pay much attention to it when we were busy in the
kitchen and i t got burnt. I can only cook it for all of you again next time."
As she talked about the stir-fried shrimp, Matilda suddenly thought of the scene when Jacob
suddenly hugged her in the kitchen and her cheeks started to flush red immediately...
