Chapter 1941
While Charlie and Jacob hurriedly made their way to the hospital, ire had already arrived.
When both the men arrived at the ward, ine was holding ire''s hand, crying pitifully.
ire was constantly wiping her tears while feeling a tug in her heartstrings.
Although Charlie had heard that his mother-inw suffered a terrible fate, he was standing outside
and did not go in to check on her; thus, he didn''t see to what extent her condition was.
Plus, after ine was taken out by Albert’s men, she was directly sent to the hospital. Charlie did
not manage to see her face either.
Now, seeing ine in person with a bluish-ck nose and a swollen face, with a patch of missing
hair on her forehead, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. "0 h my... My mother-inw is in quite a
bad shape. It was indeed an unforeseen circumstance that put her i n this state. Who would have
thought that Carmen would really go after her?"
Seeing Charlie''s arrival, ine, who was aggrieved, finally found someone to express her feelings
of being wrong too. "My good son-inw, I’m just feeling so miserable..."
As she spoke, she broke out in tears again and had
difficulty breathing.
Charlie hurriedly stepped forward and pretended to be concerned as he asked, "Mother, what
happened to you?"
ine waved her hand and wiped her tears. "Oh, don''t talk about it... please just don''t remind me of
it; talking about it is just going to make me cry more bitter tears..."
Jacob looked at her current condition and found it rather difficult tough at. He just stood there by
himself without uttering a single word.
ine nced at him and asked, furious. "Jacob!
What are you doing here?"

Jacob quickly replied, "You’re asking me what am I doing here? Of course, I''m here to visit you!"
"Visit me?" ine growled. "You''re here tough at m e, right?! To make a joke out of me, right?!"
Jacob hummed in his mind. ‘You are right, but I can’t admit that...'' 1
He could only reply in an embarrassed tone. "What are you talking about? Even if we’re separated
and about t o be divorced, we still lived half of our lives together. Seeing you being bullied by others
like this, my heart still hurts."
ine rolled her eyes then red at him. "Heartache? Don''t make me barf. Do you think I wouldn’t
know what your true thoughts are? Deep down inside, you
wished that I would be crippled forever!" 5
Jacob was taken aback as he did not anticipate ine being able to guess his thoughts so
urately, but he did not have the guts to give any response. 2
Fortunately, ire, who was by ine’s side, spoke u p. "Mother, don’t argue with Father anymore.
He came to visit you out of concern."
ine scoffed and replied grimly. "I do not need his concern."
After saying that, she looked at Charlie and said with a bitter look. "My good son-inw, this time, I
was screwed by the same group of MLM people. I''m really getting terrible luck. Now, I might need to
be in this ster for a few months. Not only will I be unable to cook for you, but I won''t be able to go
anywhere in the near future. These next few days toe will definitely be depressing..." 1
Charlie understood what ine meant.
He immediately said aloud, "Mother, don''t worry. In that case, I’ll cook dinnerter. I''ll also transfer a
hundred thousand dors of pocket money to you. If you''re really bored, just get some online
shopping done. Just do something to kill time." 4
ine was immediately moved when she heard this.
She didn''t expect Charlie to give her any money at all. 2
She remembered how he promised he would pay her thirty thousand dors as grocery allowance
and an additional ten thousand to herself since she did all the cooking. She didn''t dare to im the
grocery allowance, but she hoped she could still get the monthly private allocation she deserved.
But since she was limping again and was definitely unable to buy groceries and cook, she could no
longer perform her usual duties. Because of this, she was afraid to ask Charlie about the ten
thousand dors allowance.
