The Earth of mist ch21

That foggier morning, Jason was surprised by an unexpected visit in his office. Salma's father was sitting with signs of depression on his face and also bewildered. The information they had so far was not very good and he knew that Salma's mother was in hospital now, having had a heart attack after learning about her daughter.

Without a word, Salma's father put maps and pictures on the table and drew different colors, his daughter used them directly in front of Jason, and he said, I just want the truth, the truth, what was my daughter doing with these maps of local banks and supermarkets?

Jason recollected the maps, remembers the press reports that local police are looking for an undercover thief who allegedly wants to kill him and steal money from small and medium places. Salma's father said, We are a family that has worked with honour all our lives My daughter was about to marry her medical cousin in London and then leave with him to our town. Our family there, she can't be that person, right? Salma's father was looking at him with hope, but Jason, who has experienced many people throughout his life, is no longer surprised by anything that can happen. He sees a corpse for $100 and sees more of that because of stupidity. Salma's father backs down and feels confused and lost. Then he asks: Those colors may have been used as camouflage to steal, as she claimed to be bleeding to get money and run away. Salma's father is silent and ashamed, while Jason feels sorry for him. Then, Jason said, We still investigate a lot of things if there's something else you can tell me. Salma's father sighs as he leaves Detective Jason's room before he stops at the last minute and asks, Did you find my daughter's lucky necklace that she always wears?

Christine felt crushed but resisted her strange impulse towards Peter when she found Jason standing at her door. She bluntly said, without asking him to enter, What do you want?

Jason looked at his daughter for a second, and then he said, I love you, you are my life, you are everything to me that's the truth in front of me and nothing else. I just wanted you to know that directly from me Life may not give us a chance, but you have to know that I'm proud of who you really are. Christine tried to be coherent, but at that moment she needed to collapse, so she embraced Jason for the first time in many years.

Jason sat down eating the best oyster he had ever tasted with black rice from Christine, not from Gilbert. But he deliberately ignored talking about Gilbert. It was family food for the first time in many years that Christine Stewart missed that feeling, and she also deliberately did not mention Dr. Maureen. For a moment she wanted to tell her father about Peter, but something her mind stopped and told her she shouldn't trust Jason so much that in the end, he was a detective. Christine dipped her heart completely, trying to look normal in front of her father, but in the end he said, Your food is great, daughter I'm sure you'll be the most famous chef in the country. She was surprised by the praise he gave her, and then she said, Thank you, I think that this may be a little bit difficult right now. Jason asked her carefully, Why? She nervously replied: The restaurant is having difficulties, you know, Gilbert and Mary are gone, so there are new people I'm going to work with. There's someone, Peter, I think it's okay that he's a good guy. Jason said, Okay? Yeah, you know, you don't have to say that very easily those days, Kristen stopped and drank a glass of water and went on, He's good, we have trouble at work, but he never complains.

happened in the restaurant when Peter returned and sat in front of her calmly telling her how his father was torturing him and how he was resisting, but eventually he failed to stop it. Peter was sad because he could not resist and stole his car and wallet. More importantly, he told her the most painful thing that he could never ask for help at school or anywhere. Even his dead mother refused to admit it, but claimed that it was normal for a father to punish his son in the way he saw fit!! Kristen, as she undresses Peter, feels more like his mother than just his lover; it is so different that she stays in bed with him until morning, and at the end, when she wakes up, he is gone. She thinks she's going to tell him to stop, he doesn't have to leave without telling her. She starts biting her nails again, but she doesn't care

She always uses the gauntlet to cook food, even as she cooks inside the house.

That was the first thing Jason noticed when he first saw Christine after years of disappearing and researching, when she appeared on her YouTube channel. She was presenting her travels around the world with Gilbert on food and street food in the most famous cities. For the first time, he felt confused because he saw his little girl become a young girl in front of him and recognized her from the start as a stranger. So he didn't talk to Maureen about it. He started to follow his daughter's Instagrammed and YouTube accounts, waiting every day for a new video of her to watch. The first thing he noticed was her nails. On the other hand, his daughters obsession with cleanness might not be easy to notice, but he watched and worried about Christine, but it was only after she was back in the country that he was able to do something about it

Dr. Maureen claimed at first that she didn't watch her daughter's videos, but in fact she had been following her secretly for years. She was reliated that her daughter had partnered with a media agency to care for her channel and provide special and distinctive content. Christine seemed very adept at talking about how to offer the world's oldest natural recipes and explaining her idea of how to make good food.
