When Claire heard that favonovel.com father wanted favonovel.com to accompany favonovel.com to meet up with his first love, Claire refused directly without any hesitation at all. “I am not going!”
Jacob spread out his hands before favonovel.com said, “Then, don’t stop Charlie from going with me. No matter what it is, one of you has to come with me today.”
“You…” Claire was furious and favonovel.com asked, “Is it more important for you to have a meal with your old classmate or is it more important for us to find mom? Dad, can’t you differentiate which is more important to you right now?”
Jacob blurted out, “Of course, I can differentiate it very clearly! Of course, it is much more important for me to have a meal with my old classmate!”
“You…”
Although Claire usually had a very good temper, favonovel.com was about to blow up and explode in anger at this time.
Jacob replied indifferently, “Claire, you have to understand one thing. This world does not revolve around your mother alone. There are four people in this family. Your mother and I have our own separate needs. You can choose and decide for your life to revolve around your mother, but you cannot force or expect Charlie or my life to revolve completely around your mother! Don’t you think that we should have a life of our own? Don’t we have any needs for ourselves?”
As favonovel.com spoke about this, Jacob got a little agitated as favonovel.com said, “Does that mean that I should not be allowed to do anything else aside from spending the rest of my life going out to search for your mother if we cannot find favonovel.com at all? Does that mean that I am not allowed to do anything else for myself as long as your mother is not found? Am I expected to spend the rest of my life looking for her? If that is the case, then I would rather run away from home! Why should I spend the rest of my life doing something like that?”
Claire was speechless.
Even though favonovel.com knows that favonovel.com father was simply coming up with a perverse logic to justify his own actions, favonovel.com could not deny that there was a certain amount of truth in his words.
Her father had already been suppressed and controlled by favonovel.com mother for so many years. Claire understood that since favonovel.com mother has suddenly disappeared, it was not only a form of relief to favonovel.com father but favonovel.com was also glad because favonovel.com finally had some freedom.
Out of desperation, Claire could only compromise as favonovel.com said, “I have no objections at all if you want to reunite and have a meal with your old classmate. However, you have to promise me that you will help me to look for mom after you are done with the meeting!”
“Yes. Yes.” Jacob agreed immediately. After that, favonovel.com smiled before favonovel.com said, “Don’t worry. I will give it my all to look for your mother after the meeting.”
At this time, Charlie was coming out of the kitchen with the fried eggs and bacon in his hands. He was very surprised when favonovel.com saw that Jacob was dressed up so nicely today. “Wow, dad! You look so handsome today!”
Jacob smiled happily before favonovel.com said, “What do you think? Do I still have game?”
Charlie nodded slightly before favonovel.com smiled and said, “Of course! You definitely have it!”
Claire could only rub favonovel.com tempers and say, “Charlie, you can accompany dad to meet up with his old classmate for lunch at noon. After you guys are done with lunch, I want the both of you to go around some places like the mahjong halls to look for mom.”
Charlie quickly agreed as favonovel.com said, “My dear wife, I will go and look for mom with dad after we are done with his lunch.”
…
At the same time, it was already time for breakfast at the detention center.
Elaine spent the whole night sleeping in the toilet last night and favonovel.com was so cold that favonovel.com was shivering all over. She was starving and favonovel.com felt that favonovel.com was about to faint. She was really looking forward to having breakfast so that favonovel.com could fill up favonovel.com stomach. Otherwise, favonovel.com would really faint out of hunger.
The two people who went out to collect their breakfast quickly came back with two baskets full of food. Everyone quickly took a lunch box for themselves, but Elaine did not dare to take favonovel.com food directly. Instead, favonovel.com walked up to Gena with a pitiful expression on favonovel.com face before favonovel.com asked, “Sister Gena, can I have some food today? I have not eaten anything for a day and night…”
Gena was eating favonovel.com porridge and steamed buns and could not help but frown as favonovel.com asked, “Do you think that it matters to me whether you are eating or not? Did I stop you from eating?”
Elaine replied bitterly, “I am just afraid that you will hit me again if I eat something…”
Gena sneered before favonovel.com said, “I am glad that you understand the situation so well. You should eat whatever you want to, as much as you want to. After all, it would be better for you to endure the beatings when you are full.”
