Jacob found himself quite perplexed by the question posed by the boss.


    Clearly, he was there to purchase furniture. Who suggested that he was there to sell any furniture?


    In response, he quickly asserted to the boss, “I’m here to buy furniture. Do you understand?”


    At that moment, a salesman rushed forward, stating, “Boss, this gentleman is looking to buy a Lexington sofa set.”


    Once he finished speaking, he quickly pointed at Christopher, who had just entered the shop, and added, “This gentleman is the one here to sell his furniture.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Realizing his mistake, the boss promptly apologized to Jacob, saying, “Oh, I’m so sorry! I made an error.”


    Turning to Christopher, he asked, “Sir, are you here to sell your furniture?”<fna0bb> ?? ??? ???? ?? ???? ???? ???????s, ????s? ??s?? FιndNovel</fna0bb>


    Upon hearing that Jacob was there to buy furniture, Christopher felt an overwhelming urge to turn around and leave immediately.


    He certainly didn’t want Jacob to perceive him as aughingstock.


    However, this furniture shop was thergest Lexington furniture store in Aurous Hill and also the most reputable secondhand store in the area. If he left now, he might miss out on selling his furniture for a better price elsewhere.


    Thus, he reluctantly replied to the boss, “Yes, that’s me. I have a set of Hainan Lexington sofas that I’m looking to sell. They’re quite old.”


    The boss smiled and said, “That’s fine. Our shop mainly deals with Hainan Lexington wood furniture. Where is your sofa set? I’d like to take a look.”


    Christopher shot Jacob an awkward nce before quietly responding, “My sofa set is in a truck parked in the lot. You can follow me to check it out.”


    Jacob couldn’t help but look at Christopher in surprise.


    He noticed that Christopher seemed especially troubled and distressed after Hannah’s recent disappearance. He had lost considerable weight, and his hair appeared to have grayed overnight. He looked quite worn out.


    This was the first time Jacob had seen his older brother in such a disheveled state.


    At that moment, Lady Wilson, along with Christopher’s son and daughter, were also present.


    The four of them looked visibly exhausted and downcast, particrly the olddy, whose expression was quite grim.


    Lady Wilson felt a deep sense of sorrow, as if her heart were being pierced repeatedly, thinking about how they were there to sell the precious furniture left behind by herte husband.


    Her expression grew even more distressed when she noticed Jacob and his family at the furniture shop.


    After a moment of hesitation, Jacob approached them and asked, “Mom, Brother, what brings you here?”


    “What?” Christopher shot back coldly, “Do you think we can’t afford toe to ces like this anymore?”


    Jacob quickly rified, “No, that’s not what I meant at all. I heard you mention wanting to sell a Hainan Lexington sofa set. Are you referring to the one Dad left behind?”


    Suddenly, Christopher became defensive and snapped, “What’s it to you?”
