Chapter 898


    Jacob cleaned himself up and he dressed up immediately. After that, he did not even want to have


    breakfast at home because he was simply too anxious to go out. 1


    When ire saw him all dressed up again, she asked him immediately, "Dad, where are you going


    so early i n the morning?” 7


    Jacob replied cheerfully, "I have already made an appointment to meet up with your Aunt Hall. Both


    of u s are going to visit our alma mater together today since she has not been back in Aurous Hill


    for more than twenty years now!" 5


    When ire heard this, she suddenly got angry and she blurted out, "Mom has already been


    missing for more than two days and two nights now and there is n o news on her at all. How could


    you still go out to hang out with Aunt Hall at a time like this? Aren''t you going to go out to help us to


    look for Mom at all?" 7


    "Well..." Jacob chuckled slightly before he replied in a secretive tone, "Well, aren''t you and Charlie


    already looking for Mom? After all, both of you are still young and it''s better for the both of you to be


    out looking for her instead of relying on an old man like me! I will just wait patiently for your good


    news then!" 3


    ire replied angrily, "Dad, I''m really going to get angry at you if you continue acting like this! Why


    are


    you still unable to differentiate your priorities even at a time like this? Is apanying Aunt Hall


    even more important to you than my mother’s safety now? I s it really that important or urgent for


    you to go and visit your alma mater today?" 5

    Jacob knew that it was wrong of him to be behaving i n this manner. He knew that he should not be


    acting like this. Therefore, he did not want to continue talking about this matter and discussing what


    was right or wrong with his daughter anymore. At this time, he simply waved his hand in a hurry


    before he said, "Oh, it’s gettingte now. I''ll have to leave now or I''ll bete! I’ll talk to you when I


    return hometer. Bye!" 2


    Jacob had already stepped out of the house when he was done speaking.


    ire wanted to try and stop him from leaving but it was already useless for her to do anything at


    all.


    Jacob had already rushed out of the vi.


    When ire saw Jacob leaving the house, she told Charlie angrily, "Did you see that? Dad isn’t


    even bringing you along with him to meet her today. I believe that Aunt Hall won''t be bringing her


    son along with her today too. Both of them are definitely going t 0 enjoy their time alone together...”


    s


    Charlie hurriedly replied, "Oh, ire! You’re overthinking it. Both of them are simply old ssmates


    who are meeting up to catch up with one another. Who says that they’re enjoying their time


    alone together?" s


    ire''s eyes were red as she said, "You don''t need toe up with any excuses for them. I can


    already see what they are both up to at a single nce..." 5


    After that, ire asked Charlie again, "By the way, did your friends help you to ask around about


    Mom''s whereabouts? Did they give you any updates on the situation at all?"


    Charlie replied, "They told me that they would be able t o give me an answer by today. I''ve also


    asked them to inquire more about the situation and they told me that there has been no serious


    public security or criminal casestely. Therefore, the probability of Mom being i n danger is very


    low. We should be able to find Mom i n a day or two." 1


    As soon as she heard Charlie''s words, ire''s mood improved greatly. She sighed before she said,


    "I really hope that your friends are reliable. It would be great if Mom could juste home today.


    Otherwise, I think I’m really going to copse soon..." 6


    Charlie could not help but think to himself that it would be more than possible for him to allow ine


    toe home anytime.


    However, the main point was that she had to keep her mouth shut.


    Otherwise, she would only be a hidden danger to him when she came home.


    If that was the case, it would be better for him to keep her locked up in the detention center.


    At this time, Charlie sent Isaac a text message and asked him: "How are things going with my


    mother-inw?"


    Isaac quickly replied: "I have already asked the police officers to speak to her. They told her that this


    is a very serious matter. I believe that she will not dare to g o around spouting any nonsense!" 1


    Charlie rxed a little as he said, "Well, why don’t we d o this then? Send more people into the


    detention center to create a scene there so that she will have a deeper and scarier impression of


    the severity of this case. This way, we will be able to make sure that she keeps her mouth


    completely shut!"
