Since Elaine had already admitted to her own mistake and guaranteed that she would never do something like this again, Claire
became soft-hearted and she decided not to pursue the matter further.
When they were both alone, Claire told Charlie, “Charlie, my mom is always like this. Please don’t blame her too much. As long
as she realizes her own mistake and is willing to turn over a new leaf, we should give her a second chance.”
What could Charlie say? After all, she was Claire’s biological mother and his mother-in-law. Therefore, he could only smile as he
said, “I understand, Claire. You don’t have to worry about me. You can decide on this matter on your own. I’m your husband and
she’s my mother-in-law, so I won’t blame her for anything she does.”
Claire nodded before she hugged Charlie gently and said, “Dear husband, I’m really grateful to you. If it weren’t because of you,
Mom and I wouldn’t have been able to leave that place alive...”
Charlie smiled before he said, “Okay, don’t mention it. You don’t have to keep thanking me!”
“Mm...” Claire nodded before she said, “We should postpone moving out then. What do you think?”
Even though Charlie really wanted to move out with Claire, he wanted to respect Claire’s decision.
Therefore, he smiled before he said, “I don’t mind moving out nor if we continue living here either. It doesn’t matter that much to
me.”
After that, Charlie seemed to recall something and he said, “By the way, the renovation for the villa at Thompson First is almost
done. After the renovation is completed, we can move into the villa as a family.”
Claire was a little overwhelmed and she said, “That villa belongs to Mr. White after all. Wouldn’t it be very troublesome for us if
we’ve already moved in as a family and he decides that he wants to take back the villa one day?”
“It wouldn’t be troublesome at all.” Charlie smiled, “Zeke has already transferred the ownership of the villa to me. I’m now the
legal owner of the villa and he won’t be able to take the villa back from me anymore. Besides that, we’d be able to lead a quieter
and more peaceful life in the future. After all, if we moved into the huge villa, there would be several floors in the villa. We can
live on the third floor while our parents can live on the second floor. This way, we will be able to meet them less and we would
have more freedom. What do you think?”
Claire thought about it and she felt that what Charlie said really made sense.
She had always wanted to escape from the troubles of this family but sometimes, she felt that she did not have the rights to do
so. After all, she was still her parents’ biological child, so how could she possibly move out just like that?
However, it was very difficult to deal with this kind of situation sometimes.
Therefore, if they really moved into the villa, life would definitely be a lot easier. Everyone’s bedroom would not be located on the
same floor and they could minimize any interference and have some free time to themselves.
Claire nodded before she said to Charlie, “If that’s the case, then we should move into the villa as soon as the renovations are
complete!”
***
A villa was burning at the riverside villa at this time.
The fire truck arrived at the scene and it took them a long time to finally put out the fire. However, everything inside the villa had
already been reduced to ashes.
The firemen entered the site and they noted that there were no human bodies or remains inside the villa, which proved that this
fire did not cause any casualties at all.
A fire with no casualties was naturally not worth any mention, so no one paid much attention to the sudden fire that burned down
the whole villa.
In fact, the reason why the firemen could not find any corpses or human remains was because Justin and Jason had already
been reduced to ashes by Charlie’s Thunder Order. Therefore, the remains of their ashes were fused with all the other objects in
the room and since the ashes were so fine, it was completely impossible for it to contain any DNA components at all.
This was how both the father and son from the Grant family completely evaporated from this world.
Everyone in the Grant family was very anxious at this time.
They did not know where the father and son had gone and no one knew about the horrible and terrifying plan that they had come
up with to retaliate against Charlie. The villa that was burned down was owned by their family but even though the villa was
burned down to ashes, there were no casualties! Therefore, the Grant family thought that the father and son had gone missing!
After that, the Grant family offered a cash reward of five million dollars to anyone who had any information about Justin and
Jason. They even posted photos of the two all around the city.
However, no one could find the two persons who had disappeared into thin air. They left no traces or clues of their existence
back in this world.
