NovelEnglishWhen Claire heard that her father wanted her to accompany him to meet up with his first love, Claire refused directly without any hesitation at all. "I am not going!" Jacob spread out his hands before he said, "Then, don't stop Charlie from going with me. No matter what it is, one of you has to cwithtoday." s "You..." Claire was furious and she asked, "Is it more important for you to have a meal with your old classmate or is it more important for us to find mom? Dad, can't you differentiate which is more important to you right now?" Jacob blurted out, "Of course, I can differentiate it very clearly! Of course, it is much more important forto have a meal with my old classmate!" s "You..." Although Claire usually had a very good temper, she was about to blow up and explode in anger at this time, i Jacob replied indifferently, "Claire, you have to understand one thing. This world does not revolve around your mother alone. There are four people in this family. Your mother and I have our own separate needs. You can choose and decide for your life to revolve around your mother, but you cannot force or expect Charlie or my life to revolve completely around your mother! Don't you think that we should have a life of our own? Don't we have any needs for ourselves?" s As he spoke about this, Jacob got a little agitated as he said, "Does that mean that I should not be allowed to do anything else aside from spending the rest of my life going out to search for your mother if we cannot find her at all? Does that mean that I am not allowed to do anything else for myself as long as your mother is not found? Am I expected to spend the rest of my life looking for her? If that is the case, ther I would rather run away from home! Why should I spend the rest of my life doing something like that?" 7 Claire was speechless.

Claire understood that since her mother has suddenly disappeared, it was not only a form of relief to her father but he was also glad because he finally had sfreedom, s Out of desperation, Claire could only compromise as she said, "I have no objections at all if you want to reunite and have a meal with your old classmate. However, you have to promisethat you will helpto look for mom after you are done with the meeting!" "Yes. Yes." Jacob agreed immediately. After that, he smiled before he said, "Don't worry. I will give it my all to look for your mother after the meeting." At this time, Charlie was coming out of the kitchen with the fried eggs and bacon in his hands. He was very surprised when he saw that Jacob was dressed up so nicely today. "Wow, dad! You look so handstoday!" Jacob smiled happily before he said, "What do you think? Do I still have game?" i Charlie nodded slightly before he smiled and said, "Of course! You definitely have it!" Claire could only rub her tempers and say, "Charlie, you can accompany dad to meet up with his old classmate for lunch at noon. After you guys are done with lunch, I want the both of you to go around splaces like the mahjong halls to look for mom." s Charlie quickly agreed as he said, "My dear wife, I will go and look for mom with dad after we are done with his lunch." 5 At the stime, it was already tfor breakfast at the detention center.
