“Who else could it be?!” Jacob wiped his tears away and sobbed as he said, “Of course, it’s Matilda!”Charlie frowned and asked, “Aren’t the two of you confidants? When did you get together?”Jacob quickly explained, “We’re not together. I haven’t divorced your mother-in-law yet...”Charlie said helplessly, “You guys are not together, so how can you be lovelorn?”Jacob felt as if he had been humiliated, so he blushed and argued, “We have always loved each other deep down in our hearts! Do you remember the time when she and her son, Paul, came over to our house for dinner when she had just come back to Oskia?”“I remember.” Charlie said casually, “Wasn’t that just a reunion between old classmates? What’s so special about it?”Jacob said solemnly, “Of course, it was special! You don’t know this, but I confessed my love to her when we were in the kitchen that day! I not only confessed my love to her affectionately, but I even hugged her, and she hugged me back!”“Really?” Charlie a

After hearing Jacob’s words, Charlie could not help but ask in surprise, “How did Professor Hart get together with Aunt Matilda? When did this happen?” Jacob said indignantly, “Didn’t it happen during the cultural exchange to Korea this time? The two of them somehow ended up together for some reason!”Charlie asked him, “Are you sure they are together? Have they made an official announcement?”“Yes...” Jacob’s eyes were red and swollen, and he said in distress, “Matilda spoke to me about this matter before. She said that Professor Hart had always been interested in her, and it was not just for a day or two. In fact, he had always been interested in her since we ran into him that time.”After saying that, Jacob then added, “Professor Hart had always been stalking Matilda, and I don’t know what’s wrong with Matilda that she actually agreed to be together with him.”Charlie laughed and said, “Dad, I’m going to say something that you won’t like to hear. I actually think that the two

Jacob did not expect Charlie to say his inner thoughts directly, so he looked extremely embarrassed as he said, “Isn’t it because I want to solve the problem peacefully?”Charlie shook his head and said, “I know. When Aunt Matilda first returned to Oskia, Mom happened to disappear for a period of time. You might not have realized it, but I could see that you really enjoyed the feeling very much during that time. However, you failed to understand that the feeling was only temporary and you cannot regard something that’s temporary as eternal.”Charlie then said sincerely, “Dad, I can actually understand Professor Hart’s situation. To be honest, I think that it’s actually the best choice for Aunt Matilda to be together with him. First of all, both of them are single and widowed. They do not face the psychological burden of destroying the other party’s family or marriage, and they also do not need to worry that the other party will rekindle their relationship with their exes or worry tha

Charlie laughed and said, “Aren’t you simply putting someone down just because you can’t beat them? What’s the use of simply talking about it? If you’re really in the ring, you will lose your life if you carry on fighting for a few more rounds! Tell me, in what way are you better compared to Professor Hart? You can name any point you want! I won’t mention anything else, but Professor Hart dares to declare his love and openly pursue the woman that he loves. He is already way ahead of you in this aspect alone.”“I...” Jacob did not know how to refute Charlie’s words. Yolden was indeed much better than him in all aspects. When they went on the cultural exchange to Korea this time, what Yolden did on the subject really surprised everyone, and he had defeated all the participants on both sides directly with his level.Moreover, when Yolden had given a speech on stage, he could switch between the Oskian dialect, English, and Korean at will. His charismatic personality had even charmed a

“Arguing with the police?!”Charlie asked in surprise, “How did Mom end up arguing with the police?”Claire said in a panic, “I don’t know either. Mom said that she had to go to the toilet, so I helped her in before I came out. After that, I heard her talking to someone on the phone, and the tone of her voice seemed to be getting more and more agitated. She finally started arguing with the other party and even said that he does not deserve to be a police officer...”Charlie hurriedly said, “I’ll go and take a look.”After saying that, he looked at Jacob and said seriously, “Dad, you should digest what I’ve just said. If you still feel upset, I’ll come and talk to you again later.”Jacob was incomparably depressed as he muttered, “Forget it... Stop sprinkling salt on my wounds. No... You’re not even sprinkling salt, it’s sulfuric acid!”Charlie shook his head helplessly. “In that case, you can figure it out for yourself. I’ll go up and have a look first.”After that, Charlie and

“Otherwise, if it’s just one person making a phone call to say that another person is involved in a crime without any evidence and is asking us to arrest the other party, how many people would we have to arrest every day to solve such a problem? What’s more, if we really file a case and find out that the other party has been wrongly accused, we will not let the person who made the false police report off. We will also pursue the other party’s legal responsibility when the time comes.”As soon as Elaine heard that she might be held accountable, she panicked immediately. She had been in prison several times, and she had also been to prison in the United States. In all fairness, she was the Ferocious Ghost of Bedford Hills Correctional Institute, but she really did not want to end up in prison again. So, she could only sneer bitterly and say, “I think you’re just trying to cover up for that bitch, Hannah Queen! I will definitely report this matter to your higher authorities when I fi

Elaine’s description of Hannah surprised Charlie.He really did not expect that Hannah would seize the biggest trend of the internet to imitate others to start a live broadcast to sell goods. What’s more, Charlie did not expect that Hannah knew how to set up a persona on the internet. There were tens of thousands of people doing live broadcasts, but there were very few people who knew how to set up a good persona to make profits. Some people packaged themselves as a success guru and would teach others how to turn ten thousand dollars into ten billion dollars on the internet every day. They would also advertise and boast about how many star companies and entrepreneurs they had built up. In fact, he might not have even finished high school and only sold meat skewers every day, but the city management did not allow him to set up his stall, and his project fell through because he did not have a sanitation permit. When the short videos trend came up, his life suddenly turned around,

At this time, Hannah, who was on the live broadcast, picked up another cell phone and said, “Everyone, I’m going to make the shopping cart go online now, so everyone needs to hurry up and grab the towels! Three, two, one, go!”Elaine muttered, “This towel is not even branded but she is selling five pieces of towels for ninety-nine dollars. I think that’s the price for a good towel made of high-grade cotton. Only a fool would buy the towels she’s selling!”After that, she muttered again, “Let me see how many orders she can get for these towels.”With that said, she clicked on the shopping cart icon on Hannah’s live broadcast room and clicked in to see that the link that was ranked first was this towel—Buy three, get two free, ninety-nine dollars, free shipping. The real-time sales even showed that there were already more than one thousand and eight hundred orders. Elaine was shocked and blurted out, “Damn it, there are actually people who are buying it?! There are even more than on
