The Amazing son in law Chapter 1185

Paul drove home after dropping Charlie off at the villa at Thompson First.

Charlie made his way back to the villa alone. As he approached, his father-in-law, Jacob, rushed over to greet him. “My dear son-in-law, did you get a chance to see your Aunt Matilda after spending time with Paul today?” he inquired eagerly.

Charlie responded with a hint of exasperation, “Dad, why on earth would I meet Aunt Matilda while I was running errands with Paul?”

Jacob let out a heavy sigh, feeling quite downcast.

He had been missing Matilda terribly over the past few days. However, with Elaine at home, he couldn’t risk meeting Matilda.

At that moment, he felt a wave of anxiety and confusion wash over him.

He pressed Charlie again, “Did you at least ask Paul about Aunt Matilda? How is she?” Newest update provided by find•novel.net

Charlie smiled as he replied, “Aunt Matilda has been doing really well lately. I heard Paul mention that she’s teaching a class at Senior University now. Not only that, but she’s also learning calligraphy and painting from others. She’s truly living a fulfilling life.”

Jacob’s expression shifted to one of worry. “Wait! How could she be going to Senior University?”

Charlie looked surprised. “What’s wrong with Senior University? Isn’t it just a place for seniors to learn?”

With a gloomy look, Jacob explained, “You should know that there are many older men at Senior University who are single. They aren’t there to learn; they’re just looking for wives and companions!”

After speaking, Jacob became increasingly anxious. “Your Aunt Matilda is so beautiful. Won’t all those old men be constantly thinking about her?”

Charlie chuckled and replied, “Can you really stop people from thinking about her?”

Jacob sighed in defeat, “You’re right! This whole situation is just too disheartening!”

Suddenly, Jacob’s eyes lit up with an idea. “I know! I could just enroll in Senior University too! That way, I could see your Aunt Matilda!”

Charlie raised an eyebrow, “Aren’t you worried that Mom will find out?”

“It’ll be fine,” Jacob insisted earnestly. “Don’t you know what kind of woman your mother-in-law is? She’s always been concerned about her image. Look at her—she’s limping and using crutches, plus she’s lost her two front teeth. She hardly dares to go out these days. Every time she steps outside, she wears sunglasses and a mask just to avoid being recognized. She won’t set foot in crowded places like Senior University.”

“Alright then,” Charlie nodded, not wanting to say much more.

In reality, he wasn’t overly concerned about the relationship between his father-in-law and Matilda. If Jacob and Matilda were close, it would undoubtedly upset his wife, Claire, if she found out.

It would also create chaos if his mother-in-law, Elaine, discovered the truth. So, he decided it was best for his father-in-law to endure a bit of discomfort.

Two days later, Charlie had already informed his family that he would be attending a friend’s birthday banquet that evening.

That afternoon, he went out to purchase a beautiful red mahogany gift box and placed the Rejuvenating Pill inside.

He even asked the gift shop owner to wrap the box carefully.

It was important to him that the gift looked presentable since it was for someone else’s birthday.

Since Paul was also invited to the birthday celebration, he drove over to pick Charlie up, and together they made their way to the Moore family villa.

The Moore family had opted for minimal decorations for Jasmine’s birthday, choosing instead a modern and warm aesthetic for the villa.

As Paul drove into the courtyard, Charlie noticed that the decorations didn’t scream “birthday banquet.”

Jasmine, dressed in a stunning, custom-made white tube dress, looked incredibly beautiful and captivating. Her prominent collarbone added to her allure, making even women envious of her appearance.

The courtyard was filled with luxury cars, indicating a large number of guests in attendance.

Initially, Jasmine was inside the villa welcoming her guests, but upon hearing that Charlie had arrived, she quickly rushed out to greet him.
