    When Charlie and Jacob got to the hospital, ire was already there.


    Upon entering the ward, Jacob and his son-inw found ine holding ire’s hand, tears flowing freely as she cried in sorrow.


    ire was also wiping away her own tears, visibly distressed.


    Charlie had heard about the difficult day his mother-inw had endured, but since he had been outside, he missed witnessing the events unfold inside.<fn04ca> ?????? ???? Find1Novel</fn04ca><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Furthermore, after ine was brought out by Don Albert’s men, she was taken directly to the hospital, leaving Charlie in the dark about her condition.


    Seeing ine, with a bruised nose, a swollen face, and a patch of hair missing from her forehead, Charlie felt a heavy sigh escape him: “Oh, my poor mother-inw. It’s such a tragedy that she’s in this state. Who would have thought Cynthia would just run off? What were they looking for?”


    When ine spotted Charlie, her feelings of injustice bubbled over, and she cried out: “Good son-inw, mom is suffering so much…”


    After that, her sobs became uncontroble.


    Charlie rushed over, feigning concern. “Mom, what happened to you?” he asked.


    ine waved her hand and wiped her tears. “Oh, don’t bring it up, don’t bring it up. It’s just bitter tears…”


    Seeing her in such distress, Jacob couldn’t bring himself tough, remaining silent as he stood there.


    ine shot him an annoyed nce and eximed, “Jacob, what are you doing here?”


    Jacob quickly replied, “What do you think? I’m here to see you!”


    “Here to see me?” ine retorted angrily. “I think you just came to watch me suffer!”


    Jacob thought to himself, “Well, she’s not wrong, but I can’t say that…”


    So he awkwardly replied, “What are you talking about? Even if we’re separated or divorced, we shared half our lives together. Seeing you like this, I can’t help but feel sorry for you!”


    ine red at him. “You feel sorry? You! I can’t believe what your twisted mind is thinking; you want me to be miserable forever!”


    Jacob was taken aback by ine’s urate observation, yet he felt too intimidated to respond.


    Fortunately, ire interjected, “Mom, don’t argue with Dad. He’s here because he cares about you.”


    ine retorted, “I don’t need his concern.”


    Then she turned back to Charlie, her expression filled with sadness. “Good son-inw, I’ve been tormented by the same group involved in that MLM schemest time. Mom’s really unlucky. I’ll have to wear a ster for months, which means I can’t cook for you or go anywhere. The uing days will be incredibly dull…”


    Charlie instantly understood ine’s predicament.


    So he responded generously, “Mom, if that’s the case, I’ll take over cooking. Also, I’ll send you $100,000 as pocket money. I know you’ll be bored during this time, so feel free to buy some things online to keep entertained.”


    ine was deeply touched by his offer!


    Honestly, she had not expected Charlie to give her any money.


    She initially thought Charlie would just stick to his promise of $30,000 a month for groceries and another $10,000 for cooking expenses. While she wouldn’t dare to cut the food cost, she figured the cooking expenses were a given.


    However, now that she was limping and unable to shop or cook for herself, she worried she wouldn’t be able to ask Charlie for that extra $10,000.
