Charlie and Claire were in the car, some distance from them, so they couldn’t hear what they were talking about. However, it can be seen from this meaning that Matilda should have asked her son Paul to help, and prepared a gift for Jacob. Seeing that the two exchanged gifts, Claire was even more depressed: “Look at Dad and Matilda, they are like ordinary friends, they are like a middle-aged and elderly couple in love!”
Charlie nodded lightly.
He had long noticed that the two people still had a deep affection for each other, and Matilda even named Paul’s Chinese name after Jacob, which shows that she has never forgotten Jacob in her heart. As for Jacob, after being oppressed by Elaine for so many years, he didn’t know how much he missed and yearned for Matilda. If Elaine had evaporated when she stole his bank card, then Jacob might have reunited with Matilda now.
At this time, Claire couldn’t stand it, and said to Charlie: “You press the horn twice to remind Dad, otherwise he can talk for another half an hour.”
Charlie nodded and honked the horn. Jacob looked over and recognized Claire’s car. He thought that Charlie had come to pick him up. He waved at the car with a smile on his face, and then Some reluctantly said to Matilda: “Oh, Matilda, my son-in-law came to pick me up, so I will go back first.”
Matilda smiled and said softly: “Tell me when you get home, so I don’t worry about it.”
“Good.” Jacob smiled contentedly.
Claire took advantage of Jacob’s turn to talk to Matilda, and said to Charlie: “My dad probably didn’t know that I was also here. I’ll go and sit in the back row.”
With that, she pushed the door and got out of the car, then got into the back seat.
She knows Jacob’s car habit, he likes to sit in the co-pilot the most, so as long as there is no one in the co-pilot, he will definitely get in without hesitation.
And the reason she wanted to hide in the back seat was because she felt that Jacob had a drink, and she wouldn’t be able to look back later. Seeing Charlie driving over, opened the passenger car door and sat in as predicted.
Jacob greeted Matilda and the others, and ran over and came to the front of the car. Without hesitation, he opened the passenger door directly, sitting in and singing in his mouth: “I smile smugly, smile smugly…”
After singing, he smiled and said to Charlie: “Good son-in-law, you have to come here to pick me up.”
Charlie said, “Dad, why are you polite to me?”
“That’s right!” Jacob patted Charlie’s arm, and said gratefully: “Thank you for the set of skin care products you prepared for Dad today. You Auntie Matilda likes it very much! Oh! This may be my gift for her in my life. The most expensive gift.”
After that, Jacob couldn’t help but sighed: “Hey…I really owe you too much…”
Charlie heard him talk about Matilda directly, and was still sighing with emotion, but he didn’t know that his daughter Claire was sitting in the back seat! Thinking of this, he hurriedly winked at Jacob to remind him that there was someone behind him.
Jacob was dizzy when he was drinking. How could he have this sensitivity? While urging Charlie to drive, he put the gift bag in his lap, and said with joy: “Your Auntie Matilda secretly asked Paul to buy me a gift. Here you see, this is it, you can open it firmly, I will open it and see what it is.”
Charlie had no choice but to say, “Good dad, I will try my best to be more stable, but you must be careful too!”
When he said this, Charlie didn’t forget to remind him to be careful behind him with his eyes.
Jacob didn’t know what Charlie meant, and while unpacking it, he said seriously: “This is a gift from your Matilda. Of course I will be careful. I don’t want to break it, it will be useless!”
