Chapter 1634

As he was speaking, Charlie suddenly recalled something and he hurriedly said, “By the way, wife. After coming back this time, I will just rest for a day or two. After that, I have to travel to Japan as soon as possible. I already told you the last time that there is also a client in in Japan who keeps urging me to go over there.”

Claire nodded before asking him, “How long will you be gone for? New Year is only about half a month away and many units have already started to prepare for the holiday. Maybe you can rest for a while before you resume working after New Year.”

Charlie smiled as he said, “I have already promised the other party that I will be going over there so how can I stand them up at the last minute then? You can rest assured that I will be done in a few days’ time. In fact, Japan is not too far away from Oskia. If I fly to Japan directly from Aurous Hill, the trip will only take me about two hours.”

“Okay then…” Claire nodded slightly before she said, “Then, you have to make sure that you take good care of yourself when you arrive in Japan. Since you are not familiar with the place, don’t get into conflict with others. Otherwise, the locals might bully you.”

“Okay!” Charlie smiled as he said, “Don’t you know about your husband’s current ability? I will definitely not allow anyone to bully me.”

Claire glared at him angrily and said, “I know that you can fight very well but you should also remember that amiability and harmony bring wealth after all.”

Charlie nodded and said, “Don’t worry, wife. I will be careful.”

…

After arriving at the villa at Thompson First.

As soon as the car was driven into the courtyard of the villa, Elaine, who had already removed her plaster cast, ran out of the house happily.

She knew that Claire had gone to the airport to fetch Charlie. So, she had been anxiously waiting for Charlie to come home.

She was looking forward to Charlie’s return, mainly because Charlie had promised to bring her a gift after returning from Eastcliff.

Ever since Charlie gifted her a set of caviar skin care products that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, Elaine was already filled with appreciation towards her son-in-law who was more than willing to spend lavishly. She guessed that Charlie would certainly have prepared a very expensive gift for her this time too. So, she could not wait for him to come home.

When Elaine saw Charlie stepping out of the car, she hurriedly greeted him with a smile on her face as she said cheerfully, “Oh! My good son-in-law, you are finally home! I have been missing you so much for the past few days!”

Charlie could not help but feel a little uncomfortable at Elaine’s flattering attitude.

Although Elaine had already changed a lot compared to the past, this was the first time that she had ever said such corny and fulsome words to him.

At this time, Elaine continued speaking, “Do you know how worried I have been in the past few days? You have not travelled so far away before and I was afraid that you will not be eating and sleeping well because you might not be able to adapt to it. This has already been bothering me for the past few days!”

Charlie nodded before he smiled and said, “Mom, thank you for your concern. I have been living very well for the past few days.”

“That’s good! That’s good!” Elaine heaved a huge sigh of relief. After that, in a hurry she peered secretly into the car.

Since Charlie was the one who drove home, it would be impossible for him to carry the gifts on his hand. So, Elaine was looking inside the car to see if she could see there was any prepared gift.

At this time, Jacob also walked out of the house and he was holding a string of unremarkable sandalwood beads in his hand. He smiled as he said, “Oh! Charlie, you are back. How was the errand in Eastcliff for the past few days?”

Charlie smiled slightly as he said, “Dad, everything went well for me.”

Jacob nodded and said, “That’s great!”

Elaine caught a glimpse of some gift boxes in the back seat of the car. However, she could not see what they were because the car windows were tinted. So, she hurriedly asked, “Oh, my good son-in-law. What are those in the back seat of the car? Are they gifts for us?”

Charlie nodded with a smile and said, “I had prepared some gifts for you and dad when I was in Eastcliff.”

“Oh!” Gushed with delight, Elaine exclaimed, “You are really my good son-in-law, thinking about me all the time. Hurry up! Bring it out and let mom see what gift you have bought for me this time!”
