Keith sighed emotionally as well. "I absolutely agree with Jeremiah. Whatever my family has, it is already at your disposal!"Hence, there were toasts and cheers all around the table. The two old-timers were pleased to bury the hatchet, and they would tear up whenever Charlie's parents were mentioned.Still, Charlie was pleased as the Ackers and the Wades would once again be close partners without anything keeping them apart. His parents had been close with their respective in-laws, and they would be delighted to see them bury the hatchet.After more drinks and filling his stomach, Jeremiah spent a long time catching up with Keith and Holly before finally excusing himself.Charlie gave him a ride to Shangri-La in Don Albert's car before heading home.The press conference would be held tomorrow afternoon, but in the morning, there would be a meeting between the Ackers, the Wades, and Yolden Hart, who would be returning from his honeymoon with Matilda. There, they would be discussin

Keith was the happiest person in the room to hear that Jeremiah intended to stay, laughing as he said, "Well, you can stay with us since we have plenty of rooms. We can drink and talk about the old days all we want."Jeremiah smiled, shaking his head. "I think I won't impose—it's more convenient staying at Shangri-la, and I can drop by anytime you feel like hanging out. It's not that far, and there's plenty of transport."Keith was ready to persuade him further, but Charlie said, "Actually, Gramps, I've asked for the Champs Elys hot spring villa to be bought back. Each is empty aside from the one I sometimes stay in, so I'll ask Don Albert to clear one out. He usually spends his time beneath the hill, so I've asked him to take care of you during your stay, and he can give you rides to town whenever you need it."Jeremiah smiled. "Sure, that's the most convenient! Since the press conference tomorrow is held at the Shangri-La too, I'll stay for the night and only move to the villa tom

Charlie's marriage with Claire was atypical, so he naturally wouldn't want children at this juncture. Otherwise, history would repeat itself, this time to his child.As such, he told Holly, "It really isn't the time for that. The AI module that the Rothschilds made for me will soon be usable, and when that happens, I will go on the offensive. Merlin and I will hence be using the module to find the Qing Eliminating Society's bases that are scattered across the globe."With its processing power, it can gather a sea of information and still analyse every last byte. So, that might mean traveling across the globe while we work to destroy every last base, and when we get started, there won't be time to think about raising a child."Not having time was a white lie, but the rest very much held true.From his perspective, the Qing Eliminating Society was a behemoth. Nevertheless, by reducing its influence bit by bit, the day would come when it would fall beneath Charlie's feet, no matter it

Keith smiled affectionately at Charlie just then. "My boy, revenge isn't really the most important thing for our families; it's for you to live on. So, remember that even if revenge is important, that must only come under the condition that you're safe and sound. I'd rather not have revenge if you have to risk your life."You're the only child of your parents, and your mother was the most successful among all my children. I'm sure you're also the best that Jeremiah's bloodline has to offer, so your life comes before all else. Otherwise, it would be the worst loss both our families suffer!"Jeremiah couldn't help nodding in agreement. "That's right. Revenge doesn't come first—your life does."While Charlie understood their intention, revenge for his parents' deaths had been his goal since he was eight. He had been enduring it for years so that he could catch their killer himself, and he wouldn't forgive himself if he gave up just because he was risking his own life.Still, he couldn

Jeremiah nodded without hesitation. "For sure—even if it's against the doctor's orders!"With that, everyone followed the three elders into the villa, where the long table in the dining hall had already been laden with a ton of exquisite dishes.Keith led Jeremiah to sit beside him, pouring him and then himself a full glass, before turning to Charlie and his children, "You kids must drink tonight as well!"Hearing that, Charlie got up and poured for his uncles, aunt, and Merlin, while Keith picked up his glass and nodded at Jeremiah. "Here, I earnestly apologize for my family's many transgressions against you over the years, old friend. Please don't hold it against us!"Jeremiah nodded. He had certainly been harassed plenty by the Ackers over the years, with even Kaeden not showing him due respect despite being younger at an important conference.Still, he knew how to be objective when it came to dealing with people, and he understood that the Ackers resented him because Ashley h

Even before Charlie properly parked his car outside the villa front gates, the Ackers all emerged with Keith and Holly leading the way while their children and Merlin followed.Jeremiah was surprised as he was nervous to see everyone in the Acker family come out to receive him, and he undid his seatbelt before he knew it, ready to get off to greet them in turn.As Charlie stopped the car with the seatbelt indicator beeping out loud, Jeremiah quickly opened the door and got out impatiently.Keith quickened his pace too, reaching the car just as Jeremiah alighted, holding out his hands as he exclaimed emotionally, "Jeremiah, my friend! It's been a while!"Jeremiah nodded as he grasped Keith's hands in turn, "Indeed, it has!"There was just a single exchange between them, but they must have shaken their hands a thousand times over.Holly walked up just then, immediately polite as she said, "Long time no see, Jeremiah!"Jeremiah smiled and nodded at her. "You've been well over the y
