Chapter 1422


    Upon hearing this, ine was extremely grateful and said, "Oh, my dear son-inw! You are the


    best son-inw in the world! It''s truly a blessing for me to be able t o get an awesome son-inw


    like you..." 4


    Jacob, who was sitting at the side all along, sighed repeatedly. He knew that Charlie had a knack in


    some way. When he said he would get them, he would. 2


    However, it was quite hard for him to swallow when h e thought of ine using cosmetics worth


    hundreds o f thousands of dors. 3


    At this moment, Charlie just happened to say to him," By the way, dad, are you using the car today?


    I''m kind of in the middle of something today. If you don’t need your car, can you please lend it to


    me?" 4


    Charlie needed to go to the airport to see Quinn off and then rush to Aurous Stadium to watch


    Aurora’s match. It would be a little inconvenient without a car t omute around.


    Jacob hurriedly said, "Oh. In that case, you can drop m e off at Senior Universityter. Lunch will be


    provided there so I won''t be home for lunch. I’ll take a taxi back myself after I finish my business


    there in the afternoon."


    Charlie nodded and said, "Then, let''s hurry up and eat.


    Let’s set off afterward."


    Jacob said, "Alright!" 2


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    ine was an average cook.


    However, it did not require much skill to make tomato and egg with noodles, so the breakfast she


    cooked was barely edible.


    After breakfast, Charlie and Jacob went out the door i n a hurry and drove away.


    As soon as Charlie drove Jacob''s BMW out of the house, Jacobmented, "Hey, Charlie, you''re so


    silly! Why did you promise that b*tch ine such an expensive skincare product? Don''t you see that


    she doesn''t deserve even a drop of it?"


    Charlie smiled. "Dad, it''s only a hundred thousand or s 0, it''s not a big deal. Besides, I have friends,


    so getting a set of cosmetics is a breeze." 2


    Jacob couldn''t helpmenting, "Oh my, it’s such a waste of money!”


    Charlie smiled quietly.


    In Jacob''s opinion, it would be a waste of money even i f ine used a one dor moisturizer.


    However, this amount of money did not mean anything to him.


    In truth, he didn''t even have to spend his own money i f he wanted to. He could just give a call to


    Isaac, Zeke, 0 r Graham, and ask them to buy ten or twenty sets of the aforementioned skincare


    products for him. It was


    not a big deal. 5


    The point was if the petty gain was enough to make his mother-inw respectful of him, it was worth


    every penny of it. a


    Jacob, who was fiddling on the side, asked, "Hey, Charlie, by the way, urn... Can I... ask you for a


    favor?" 2


    Charlie nodded. "Yes, dad, just tell me. Why are you being so polite to me?"


    Jacob grinned sheepishly. Then, he rubbed his hands, and said, "Well, since you have ess to


    the products, could you get me an extra set?"


    Charlie asked reflexively, "Dad, please don''t tell me you still want to maintain youthful skin. It’s not


    necessary though. Men will look more macho if they have some signs of aging on their face." a


    Jacob chuckled embarrassedly. "Okay, I''m going to tell you the truth. Actually, I asked you for a set,


    but it’s not for me. I want to give it to Matilda. You know, I don’t have much money right now. Matilda


    has been back for so long, and yet, I haven''t given her any gifts. How embarrassing..." 3


    Then, he added, "I figured, since you have ess to the cosmetics, you can get an extra set for me


    too so that I can give it to Matilda. It could help boost my reputation, don’t you think?"
