Chapter 844

Jacob, who was upstairs on the third floor was living in sharp contrast to Charlie.

He was so excited that he could not even fall asleep at all that night.

He could not stop thinking about the past that he shared with Matilda and all of their good memorieskept flashing back and forth in his mind. He was completely immersed in the memories that he sharedwith Matilda.

The more he thought about Matilda, the more he looked forward to seeing her again.

Early the next morning, Jacob who had not slept for the whole night was very energetic and he was inextremely good spirits. He was happily smiling from ear to ear at this time.

He got up early to wash up and he shaved his beard clean without leaving even a single stubblebehind. After that, he combed his gray hair before he sprayed some styling spray on his hair. After that,he looked inside his cabinet before he looked for the high-end luxurious suit that he had always feltvery unwilling to wear.

This suit was specially made in Hong Kong when the Wilson family was still enjoying their gloriousdays. At that time, he was the second young master of the Wilson family and his father did not hesitateto give him a large amount of pocket money so that he would be able to maintain his face andreputation when he went out every day.

Fortunately, Jacob has been living a very frugal life for the past few years so he did not gain any weightand he could still fit in the suit perfectly.

After dressing up and putting on his clothes, Jacob looked in the mirror. He could not help but show avery satisfied smile because he looked ten years younger after grooming himself up.

As the saying goes, when a person experiences a happy event, they would be free of all worries andthis would also be clearly visible from their appearances. At this time, the smile on Jacob’s face wassimply beyond his control!

He believed that Matilda would definitely not be disappointed at all when she saw him!

As he thought about this, Jacob was so excited that he could not help but wished that he could rush tothe airport immediately so that he could see Matilda again.

However, Matilda’s plane would only be landing after ten o’clock in the morning. Since it was still early,he decided to go downstairs to have breakfast in the dining room instead.

At this time, Claire and Loreen were sitting in the dining room as they enjoyed a glass of milk. Charliewas busy cooking some fried eggs and bacon in the kitchen. Loreen was the first person to see Jacoband she exclaimed in surprise, “Wow! Uncle, you look so young after you dress up today!”

“Is that so?” Jacob smiled embarrassedly before he asked, “Do I look okay?”

Loreen gave him a thumbs up as she said, “You look amazing!”

Claire raised her head at this time and she was really surprised when she saw that her father wasactually wearing his favorite suit. She quickly asked, “Dad, why are you wearing a suit?”

Jacob hurriedly replied, “I have something to do today. An old friend just came back from abroad and Iam going to meet up with my friend to enjoy a meal together.”

As he spoke, Jacob said again, “Oh, by the way, Charlie will be accompanying me to meet my friend forlunch at noon. So, you don’t need to come home for lunch today. You can just eat something near thecompany.”novelbin

“Dad!” Claire was very dissatisfied as she said, “Mom is still missing! I was still thinking of asking youand Charlie to accompany me to go out and find mom today. Why are you still making an appointmentto meet up with your old classmate for lunch today?”

Jacob replied, “Well, since my friend is already here, I cannot possibly cancel our appointment, right?”

Claire replied angrily, “But my mother is still missing! Shouldn’t you be worrying about her safety andwhereabouts first? I can’t believe that you still have the mood to go out for a meal with your friend at atime like this! Are you and mom really a married couple?”

Jacob nodded slightly before he said, “Yes, we are a married couple.”

After that, he added another sentence, “But the both of us are already separated.”

Claire was so angry that she was completely at a loss for words. She could not believe that her fatherwould dress up so formally and that he would even deliberately set his hairstyle just for his appointmenttoday. She was certain that her father was definitely going to meet up with a female classmate.

Furthermore, since her father said that this classmate was coming back from abroad, Claire felt thatthis old classmate was definitely her father’s first love that her mother always talked about!

Claire could not help but feel angry because her father was all dressed up to go out to have a meal withhis first love when her mother was still missing.

Jacob said seriously at this time, “We can look for your mother anytime but I have already made anappointment with my friend to have this meal together. I cannot go back on my words now. I will go andlook for your mother with Charlie after we are done with lunch!”

Claire replied, “Why don’t you go by yourself, then? Charlie will accompany me to look for mom!”

“How can I do that?” Jacob hurriedly replied, “My friend is bringing her son along with her today.Wouldn’t it be inappropriate for me to go for lunch by myself? Why don’t you ask Charlie to go and lookfor your mother while you accompany me to lunch today then?”
