The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 839

Claire originally did not know that Jacob had been drinking.

However, after approaching Jacob, she could smell the strong scent of alcohol from his body. She could not help but feel very angry at her father at this time!

She knew that her father normally enjoyed drinking. She has absolutely no opinion on his actions at all. However, the point was that her father told her that he would be going to several mahjong halls to look for her mother. Why did he come back drunk then?

This...this simply proved that he did not go to look for her mother at all! He simply went out to...drink!

When Jacob heard Claire asking if he had been drinking, Jacob hurriedly covered his mouth and took a few steps back as he was in a state of panic. After that, he hurriedly said, "Don't talk nonsense! I was not drinking!”

"You are the one who is talking nonsense right now!" Claire stomped her feet angrily, "I can smell the scent o f alcohol on your body! You did not have the scent of alcohol on your body when you left the house earlier but there is a strong smell of alcohol on your body now! You must have just been drinking!"

As she spoke, Claire fixed her eyes on Jacob's collar and she noticed a few drops of oil on his collar. At this

time, her eyes flashed red as she said angrily, "Mom is already missing and we cannot find her at all. At this time, you did not even bother to go out to look for her but you are even eating and drinking happily all by yourself! Are you really that happy?" 1

Jacob replied in an embarrassed manner, "Oh, my...I...I really did not..."

Claire replied angrily, "Dad, do you really think that I will believe you?" 1

Jacob knew that there was no way that he would be able to get out of this situation. Therefore, he could only look at Charlie as he said, "Charlie was the one who asked me to go out for a drink!" 6

After he spoke, Jacob hurriedly winked at Charlie as though he was implying that he was a good son-in-law and he wanted him to bear the blame for him first.

Charlie quickly replied without any hesitation as he nodded and said, "That's right. That's right. Dad is

right. I was the one who asked him out for a drink." 6
