Pausing, Ashley sighed. "I was the one who pushed to engage Charlie with Quinn. I truly love that girl, and she's been like a daughter to me ever since she was born. Yule and Rachel used to love Charlie, too, which was why I suggested the engagement when they grew up."I've been told that such old-fashioned engagements shouldn't continue in the new age, or it'd look like we're back in feudal times… but I just think that there are some things that are just so perfect that a parent must fight for it despite their child's opinions."That was when Ashley sighed. "The Qing Eliminating Society reached out to Curtis and me on multiple occasions. I was not even worried that they would come for us… only that they would send Scholars to infiltrate Charlie's inner circle."Mrs. Sun's expression stiffened at the mention of Scholars, as she knew how astounding the Scholars could be. The Qing Eliminating Society had groomed each Scholar since they were children, all for the express purpose of '

Quinn's memory of Ashley was pretty hazy, as she had been just a child when Ashley had left Eastcliff with Charlie."I don't remember her face, Mom," she couldn't help groaning. "Did she like me back then?"Rachel smiled. "Oh, you have no idea… She was there when you were delivered, and she was also the second person who carried you.""Really?" Quinn exclaimed, clearly surprised. "Then, who was the one who proposed my engagement with Charlie? I don't think I was told.""It was Ashley," Rachel sighed. "At that time, the Wades were the strongest family in Oskia, while Curtis and Ashley had taken good care of both your father and me. To be honest, we always thought that they were far beyond us, and it was our honor that they considered us friends. Considering that, would we even dare ask for such an engagement?"Surprised, Quinn blurted, "Well, why would Ashley want me as Charlie's wife?"Rachel smiled. "Because she liked you, of course. She believed you were her best choice as a da

Rachel sighed, but she knew her daughter best and that Quinn wasn't kidding.If Charlie were to fall to his mortal enemies, the only reason Quinn would want to continue living would be for her and her husband.If they were gone, too, Quinn would break.Hence, she asked Quinn, "Well, what did Charlie say?""He tried to talk me out of it, but I just ignored him," Quinn replied, shrugging. "I told him very clearly that I wouldn't bother living if he and you guys were gone… Unless he had a kid with me.""Well done!" Rachel exclaimed, giving her a huge thumbs-up. "That's the way to do it—only being direct works on him. We were too considerate, so he was free to dilly-dally! If we let him, he'd just keep dragging things out without ever making a choice!"Pausing, she then pressed, "So? What did he say?'Quinn lied, "He said he would consider it… That's why I think he won't keep dragging things out after I made myself so clear. He'll definitely give us an answer."Hugging Rachel's arm

When they both returned to the Goldings' residence, Rachel was cooking with the servants, while Yule was feeding the fish in his pond.He had definitely worked hard on this hobby. In fact, despite sub-zero temperatures, the water was consistently kept at 25 degrees Celsius with the full set of cyclical heating equipment he installed.Seeing Charlie return with his daughter, he smiled at them, "Quinn, your mom told you to help out in the kitchen once you're back. Charlie can keep me company for a while."Quinn was perplexed. Her mother had never once asked her to help with housework, but she was now being summoned to the kitchen?Still, she was sharp enough to consider that her mother wanted to talk to her, and hence smiled and nodded. "Alright. You boys take your time, I'm going now."Charlie nodded, not thinking too much about it. "You go do that. Just give me a shout if you need help."Quinn smiled. "Nope! Boys aren't allowed in the kitchen. Family rules."And with that, she t

Quinn nodded slightly. "Okay, we'll come over once we're finished!"Tanya then turned to smile at Charlie. "Do listen to 'Assassin' if you have the time, Mr. Wade. The translated lyrics really touched me."Charlie had never liked music and wouldn't particularly go out of his way to listen to pop songs.As for concerts, he had only ever attended the concerts of two artists, and they were both here in the room.Still, he made a mental note to study up on the song, although he wasn't sure if he had heard Quinn sing it when he had last seen her in concert.Even remembering it now, watching Quinn's concert had been quite entertaining.The first one had been in Aurous Hill, but he had been too worried about Quinn confessing her love to him to enjoy it.The second was in New York, but while he thought he could enjoy the concert for a change, he had discovered that the Qing Eliminating Society was coming for the Ackers.On the way back, Charlie linked his phone via Bluetooth to the MPV

Charlie never dreamt that two women would be so dead set on making him dance for them at the same time.All six feet of him? Dance?However, before he could refuse, Quinn hugged his arm and pouted, "Please, Charlie… Just this once, okay? It's not even a dance—it's just wire stunts and some martial arts choreography. Also, you'd be wearing full armor that covers your face and even your hands. No one would even see your little finger."While Tanya was aware she had no right to pout at Charlie, she nodded and smiled expectantly, "Mr. Wade, if you can join us for our duet, I'm sure it would be an unforgettable memory.""Exactly!" Quinn nodded eagerly. "And you didn't promise me what I asked before, so you can promise me this one, right?"Charlie couldn't help relenting from seeing her pouting. As Quinn insisted that it was just some martial arts choreography, he said solemnly, "You promised—I won't show my face, or I'd embarrass myself."Seeing that Charlie had relented, Quinn hugg
