The four of them had a happy meal, and while Claudia and Jenny were helping Aunt Lewis clean up the dining table and kitchen, Rhowell’s call reached Claudia’s phone.
After Claudia was connected, Rhowell told her, “Cousin, I have already arrived at the door of Jenny’s house, please let him come out.”
Claudia said, “Wait a moment, I’ll tell Mr. Wade.”
Immediately, Claudia hung up the phone, came to Charlie, and whispered, “Charlie…Brother Charlie, Rhowell has already arrived at the door.”
Charlie nodded and greeted Jenny, “Jenny, if you have nothing to do, will you go out with me?”
Jenny knew that Charlie was going to Rhowell’s casino, so she immediately said, “Okay, brother Charlie, wait for me.”
After she finished speaking, she said to Aunt Lewis, “Aunt Lewis, I’ll take Brother Charlie out for a walk. You don’t need to clean up the tableware. Just let Claudia put it in the dishwasher later.”
