Chapter 1992


    Charlie asked, "So, Dad, do you have any ns?”


    He did not know what Jacob was thinking at this moment. Seeing Jacob''s sorrowful expression, he


    assumed that Jacob might want to lend Lady Wilson a helping hand.


    Jacob simply sighed and said, "As her son, it breaks m y heart to see my own mother living such a


    hard-knock life and doing such a tedious job. I should not just sit on my hands and watch."


    The next second, he closed his eyes and said," However, I didn’t see anything! It was nothing but


    an illusion!" 6


    With that, he quickly turned around and said, "Charlie, let''s go buy some fish, shrimp, meat, and


    eggs. As for the vegetables, let''s buy them at another supermarket. What do you think?"


    Knowing Jacob’s intention, Charlie immediately smiled and said, "Yes, Dad. I''m thinking the same


    thing. The vegetables in this supermarket are not so fresh. Let''s go to the wet marketter to buy


    the vegetables! First, let''s go see if they have arger Boston lobster, and we’ll buy some back!" 1


    Jacob snapped his fingers at Charlie and said with a grin, "You understand me very well! Let''s go


    and buy some lobsters!”


    Although Jacob felt sympathetic toward his mother''s miserable life, he was not a fool to take pity on


    her.


    He knew Lady Wilson''s true self like the back of his hands. 2


    She had been cold-blooded and merciless when she kicked his family out of the Wilson family. She


    was ruthless when she tried to frame ire. 2


    Later, when Wilson Group had copsed, she had done a lot of nasty things in order to live in their


    Thompson First vi.


    Jacob was tired of seeing her mother''s cruel and ruthless side. Hence, he hoped that reality could


    teach her a valuable lesson, and he would not offer any help until she hadpletely repented for


    her mistakes. 3


    After loading a cart full of various ingredients, Charlie and Jacob proceeded to the checkout


    counter.


    At this moment, there were long queues at every checkout counter. They waited for more than


    twenty minutes before it was finally their turn.


    Jacob quickly walked to the front of the shopping cart and said, "Charlie, pass the goods to the


    cashier to scan the code, I''ll bag them at the front."

    Charlie nodded. Jacob walked into the cashier''sne and said to the cashier before Charlie started


    loading the items on the conveyor belt, "Please give me fourrge stic bags."


    The cashier nodded and said, "That''s fifty cents each."


    With that, she bent to the side drawer and retrieved fourrge stic bags and handed them to


    Jacob.


    When Jacob took the bags, he subconsciously looked u p and immediately eximed, "Hannah?!


    What are you doing here?"


    "Huh?! I-It''s you!" Hannah, who was wearing the supermarket vest and standing in front of the


    checkout counter, was equally stunned when she saw Jacob!


    She never thought in her wildest dreams that she would run into Jacob when she was forced to take


    a temporary job as a cashier! 2


    She looked to the other side of the shopping cart and saw a young man who was loading the items


    on the conveyor belt. It was Charlie!


    Seeing Charlie taking out a thick stic bag containing severalrge lobsters, Hannah mumbled


    sourly to herself, "D*mn, I''ve been hungry all day and night, and I''ve been standing here all morning


    with an empty stomach. It''s not even lunchtime yet, but here they are, buying a big bag of lobsters!


    How can there b e such a huge gap in living standards when the two families live in the same
