Claire felt somewhat helpless when she saw Elaine’s firm attitude.
However, after a little consideration, she also felt that it was indeed more convenient and comfortable for her mother to go back instead of staying in the United States.
Furthermore, she had to attend classes five days a week, so she did not have much time to spend with Elaine. Since that was the case, Elaine would definitely cause trouble for Charlie, then.
So, Claire said, “Mom, we’ll drive to New York after class the day after tomorrow, which is Friday. I’ll book you a flight ticket for Sunday.”
“That’s great!” Elaine was suddenly very excited and blurted out, “Hurry and help me book the flight ticket. Otherwise, it might already be sold out.”
Charlie, who was aside, spoke up and said, “Mom, I’ll book it for you.”
Elaine hurriedly nodded and said, “Okay! Thank you, my dear son-in-law!”
Charlie was also very straightforward, and he took out his cell phone immediately, found a flight back to Oskia from New York on Sunday, and then booked the flight ticket for her.
Soon, Elaine received the ticket information from the airline. After seeing that the flight ticket had been confirmed, Elaine was very happy like a wanderer who had been wandering for many years and finally had the opportunity to return home.
After that, Elaine carefully put away the Emerald Goddess Dream necklace that Charlie had given her and then said to the two of them, “Oh, I still have an appointment with the Rampage Team today. I’m going to be late. You both should hurry up and enjoy your time together. I will go out first!”
After saying that, Elaine hurriedly put on her sneakers and left the room without waiting for the two of them to respond.
After Elaine had left, Claire was a little doubtful as she said to Charlie, “Honey, do you feel that my mother does not seem to be in the right state?”
