As ire pondered the situation, she gradually calmed down and handed the cash cheque to Charlie. “Make sure to keep it safe and remember to burn it for your dad tonight. Don’t let it get mixed up with any other cheques in the future! You never know what could happen otherwise!”<fnf9e1> Fresh chapters posted on fι?dnοvel</fnf9e1>


    Charlie nodded eagerly and replied, “Don’t worry, dear. I’ll be more careful from now on.”


    Next, Charlie quickly retrieved the cheque for one hundred and eighty thousand dors and presented it to ine. “Mom, this is the real cheque. Here you go!”


    He continued to tter her, saying, “Mom! Thank goodness you caught my mistake! If I had burned the wrong cheque, we would have lost a lot of money!”


    ine shot him a furious re. If it weren’t for the one hundred and eighty thousand dor cheque, she might have been less forgiving.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    However, who could turn down money? She had to ept the cheque and keep the remaining one hundred and sixty thousand dors for herself!


    Charlie breathed a sigh of relief when he saw ine take the cheque from his hand. He had been careless and almost caused a significant blunder due to his mistake. Luckily, he managed to think on his feet just in time…


    Still, his mother-inw was a bit too sharp for her own good. If she discovered that the one hundred million dor cash cheque was genuine, she would likely be beside herself with shock for making such a colossal error!


    Just as Charlie was beginning to feel more at ease, an anxious, elderly voice called out from outside the ward. “Jacob! Jacob! My son, how are you?! Mom is here to see you!”


    Charlie’s expression darkened immediately upon hearing those words.


    Momentster, Lady Wilson entered the ward, using a walking stick and apanied by Christopher, Harold, and Wendy.


    Lady Wilson wore a distressed expression, her eyes bloodshot, showing signs that she had been crying.


    The moment she entered, she rushed to Jacob’s bedside, tears streaming down her face. “Jacob! Jacob, when I heard you were in a car ident, I was terrified—I thought I was going to have a heart attack! How are you feeling? Are you okay?”


    Though ire felt a twinge of disgust for this group, she couldn’t bring herself to turn them away since they were there to visit her father. She stepped forward and said, “Grandma, my father is feeling much better now. Charlie invited a brilliant doctor to treat his injuries.”


    Lady Wilson sighed in relief. “That’s wonderful news.”


    Jacob reassured her, “Mom, don’t worry. I’m not going anywhere anytime soon.”


    Truthfully, Jacob felt a mix of emotions towards his mother. Despite his dissatisfaction with her, she was still his mother, and family ties ran deep. How could hepletely shut off his feelings for her?


    Seeing her so worried and tearful touched Jacob’s heart.


    Lady Wilson continued to cry as she chastised herself, saying, “Jacob, this is all my fault. I never showed you how much I truly cared or loved you. When I found out about your ident, I was filled with regret, fearing you might leave this world without knowing how much I love you, my dear son.”


    Her tears flowed freely as she added, “I’m sorry if it seemed like I didn’t care over the years. It wasn’t that I didn’t care; I just pushed you harder because I wanted you to grow and learn quickly. I regret that you had to suffer in silence for so long. Please forgive me for being so tough on you…”


    Jacob felt a tightening in his chest, unable to hold back his own tears.


    For years, he had harbored resentment towards his mother, feeling overshadowed by his brother and questioning her favoritism. He never understood why she always supported his brother while seemingly dismissing him.


    This bitterness had formed a knot in his heart over the years.


    However, hearing his mother’s heartfelt words and witnessing her genuine concern began to unravel that knot.
