Claire was dumbfounded, and she did not know how she should respond.Jacob, who was sitting in the co-driver seat, was so aggrieved that he burst into tears and choked up as he said, “Back then, your mother and I had no emotional connection nor affection for one another whatsoever. If I were to speak conscientiously, before I got drunk that night, I have never even exchanged more than a few words with your mother before. You should also be able to see clearly that your Aunt Hall is much better than your mom in all aspects. It is completely impossible for a normal man to give up your Aunt Hall and choose your mother instead. I was completely helpless, and I was forced into a dead-end back then!”As he spoke, Jacob looked out the window with a sad and aggrieved look on his face as he said depressedly, “In the beginning, your Aunt Hall and I had already planned our lives after graduation. We were going to go and further our studies in the United States together. You should also know tha

”I understand! I understand!” Jacob nodded excitedly as he said repeatedly, “I will never wear this watch at home in the future.”Although Charlie had been sitting at the side without saying anything all this while, he was also a little relieved when he heard this.It had really not been easy for his father-in-law all this while. In fact, the main reason why he had tolerated Elaine for so many years was mainly because of Claire.If it weren’t for his daughter, he would not have tolerated this for such a long time. So, it could be seen that his father-in-law was actually not useless. At the very least, his paternal love for Claire was indeed very great.Moreover, even when Claire was questioning him about this matter, Jacob had never once mentioned that the reason why he had suffered so many grievances for the past two decades was because of Claire. He was indeed worthy of the saying that stated that a father’s love was great and selfless.***When they arrived back at Thompson Fi

When Charlie came out of the villa community, he could not see Nanako anywhere anymore.He looked around a few times, but Nanako was nowhere to be found.Charlie could not help but feel a little puzzled and bewildered. He knew that his observations were not wrong. Although that girl had been wearing a mask over her face, he was certain that it was Nanako.Since she had come all the way to the villa at Thompson First, she must have come here to look for him. So, why did she suddenly disappear, then?As he thought about this, Charlie could not help but sigh. He really could not figure out what was going on in this Japanese girl’s mind.Meanwhile, Nanako was hiding in a milk tea shop as she looked at Charlie from a distance.When she saw the lost and despondent look on Charlie’s face, she felt a strange and peculiar feeling somewhere deep within her heart.She had indeed come here to look for Charlie tonight. The final match was about to happen, and she knew very well that it would

So, Nanako hurriedly told the boss, “Boss, please give me another cup of milk tea.”The boss replied, “Miss, we are about to close our shop now. Our employee has also gotten off work. I am so sorry but we cannot make another cup of milk tea for you now.”“Okay.” Nanako nodded helplessly.At this time, she saw Charlie walking toward the right side of the gate of the first-grade Thompson First villa community. So, she hurriedly held her cup of milk tea in her hand as she ran after him.Charlie thought that Nanako had already left. So, he planned to head toward the pharmacy to buy a box of liver supplement tablets for his father-in-law.When he arrived at the entrance of the pharmacy, he discovered a huge poster hanging at the entrance of the pharmacy. It was a poster of Quinn, who was beautiful and unparalleled, as she held the Apothecary Stomach Pill in her hand. There was also a slogan which Quinn had personally written herself: “New Oskian medication, new domestic product. I trus

In fact, Nanako did not know what she should say at this moment. Therefore, she suddenly thought of giving the milk tea to Charlie.Although Charlie felt a little surprised, he had not drunk even a sip of water ever since he had gone out to pick up his father-in-law, and he felt a little thirsty at this time.So, he subconsciously took the cup of milk tea in his hand before he smiled and said, “Thank you. I just so happen to feel a little thirsty too.”After saying that, Charlie lowered his head before he sipped on the straw and drank a big mouthful of the milk tea.At this time, Nanako came to a sudden realization, and she exclaimed in her heart, ‘Oops! I took a few small sips of the cup of milk tea just now… Although I only drank a few sips of the milk tea, I still drank it anyway! Wouldn’t that mean that I’ve kissed Charlie indirectly, then?’Charlie did not know that Nanako had already drunk the milk tea before him. As he continued drinking the milk tea, Charlie said, “Ito-san

“Our Oskian ancestors would always think of how we can better ourselves. Even if we fight, we will only fight with ourselves—we fight with our past and present selves!”“The reason why we fight with our past selves is so that we can surpass our present and past selves. We want to improve ourselves in the medical field so that we can live longer. We want to improve our farming techniques so that we can feed more people. We want to improve our combat and fighting skills so that we can make ourselves better and stronger.”Having said that, Charlie looked at Nanako before he asked her, “If you are no longer allowed to participate in any more competitions from now on, will you give up on upgrading yourself or even practicing combat and fighting in the future?”Nanako blurted out, “Of course not! Even if I can no longer participate in any more competitions, I will never give up on combat and fighting!”Charlie smiled before he said, “That’s it. You love combat and fighting for itself, an

Charlie did not know what kind of look he had given Nanako.After all, he did not have a mirror at that time to look at the expression on his own face.However, he could remember his mood at that time.At that time, he had really felt distressed when he saw her constantly getting attacked and hit by her opponent.So, what Nanako had seen at that time should have been the distressed look in his eyes?As he thought about this, Charlie also felt a little embarrassed. He sighed as he said seriously, “Don’t be so silly in the future. You can go all out in the match, but don’t put yourself in a dangerous situation just for the sake of your own obsession.”When Nanako heard Charlie showing her some concern, she felt very excited, like a dainty and delicate woman. She nodded before she said, “I understand, Mr. Wade!”Charlie looked at her, and he could still see the bruises and scars on the corners of her eyes. At this time, he could not help but caution, “During the next match between
