The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5645
At this moment, Ruby, who was hidden in the shadows, was completely stunned! She didn't expect that the formidable man in black before her was actually Curtis’s son from back then!Meanwhile, Charlie was unaware that there was still a concealed cultivator with a hidden presence ten feet away in the shadows. His attention was solely on Mr. Chardon, who was in front of him. Despite witnessing Mr. Chardon’s pathetic and fearful appearance, Charlie felt no sympathy for him.He looked at Mr. Chardon and shouted again, “Thunder, come!”A thunderous explosion echoed as another lightning bolt descended from the sky! This time, the thunder struck Mr. Chardon’s right hand directly, turning it into black charcoal!In the previous few lightning strikes, Charlie had deliberately controlled the power in order to toy with Mr. Chardon. However, this time, Charlie intentionally increased the power, directly disabling Mr. Chardon’s right hand.Mr. Chardon felt an intense burning pain in his hand. W

However, human greed never followed such rules. In reality, the younger someone was, the less they feared death. Many young people who were around fifteen or sixteen dared to face death in confrontation with others. On the contrary, as people grew older, they often became more afraid of death. Even someone like Mr. Chardon, who was a cultivator, was not exempt from this commonality. In fact, he was more afraid of death than most people.When Mr. Chardon saw that Charlie was not showing him any mercy at all, he cried and said, “Charlie, back then, I was also acting under orders. The British Lord gave me an order I couldn't refuse! If you want to avenge your parents, you should go after the British Lord and not a lowly pawn such as myself…”Charlie sarcastically remarked, “Oh? You’re selling your boss out for your own gain now? Well, if you honestly reveal everything about the Qing Eliminating Society, I might give you a quick death so that you won’t suffer such a horrible death!”M

The pineal gland was considered the dwelling place of the Nine True Paths in cultivation. Some say it corresponded to the pineal gland in human anatomy, capable of secreting various hormones with subtle and mystical effects on the body. However, with age, its functions gradually deteriorate and would become almost ornamental.For cultivators, activating the pineal gland signified unlocking a whole new world. Activating the pineal gland involved using Reiki to unlock the pineal gland located at the center of the brain.The pineal gland was also known as the upper elixir field. Generally speaking, it was easy to activate the lower elixir field, and it was not difficult to open up all eight meridians. However, only extremely skilled cultivators could activate their upper elixir field. For cultivators, this spot was the supreme realm of the Nine True Paths, where human consciousness originated. If one could activate the pineal gland and cultivate in the right manner, one would not only

However, thirty years had passed, and none of the four great earls had actually activated the formation inside their pineal glands. This was mainly because over the past thirty years, they hadn't encountered any life-threatening super crises at all. Although Mr. Jothurn did face a life-or-death crisis in Cyprus, that situation was unique. The three close-defense missiles that attacked him were too fast and too powerful, and the method of attack was too brutal. It was just a blink of an eye from the moment he sensed danger to his death. He didn't even have time to think about the pineal gland that the British Lord had opened for them thirty years ago.Moreover, it would be futile even if he remembered it because he didn't have enough time to open the formation inside the pineal gland.Mr. Chardon had the perfect opportunity now. With this thought, Mr. Chardon looked at Charlie, chuckled bitterly, and secretly activated the technique to activate his pineal gland, then sneered at Char

Ruby, who was hidden in the shadows, did not notice anything unusual. When she heard Mr. Chardon’s words just now, she knew that he had already activated his pineal gland, and she instantly heaved a sigh of relief.Although she did not get along with Mr. Chardon, the death of Mr. Jothurn gave her a feeling as if they were interconnected. Now that Mr. Chardon had activated his pineal gland, he could be considered to have escaped from the clutches of death!At this moment, Mr. Chardon’s expression became even more ferocious at an extremely fast pace! It only took a second or two for his pineal gland to be activated, and he felt a blazing and incomparable raging fire ignite in his brain. This fire, like a supernova explosion, rapidly expanded and strengthened! The pressure on his pineal gland was also increasing!It felt as if a huge mountain had been forcibly stuffed into his brain! The excruciating torment was comparable to the eighteen layers of hell!Charlie also realized the enor

The intense and thunderous explosion instantly reverberated throughout Aurous Hill, even waking up the entire city from its nocturnal slumber. The valley where the explosion occurred had its dense vegetation obliterated, forming a circular blank space with a radius of several hundred meters.Mr. Chardon had completely vanished without a trace, his entire being vaporized, leaving no residues behind.The notion of ‘a soul surviving despite the death of the physical body’ was nothing but a deception. It was an empty promise given to them, luring them to sacrifice themselves generously.Mr. Chardon only realized at the moment of his death that the formation the British Lord had left inside their pineal gland thirty years ago was not something capable of preserving a strand of their souls. Instead, it was a tremendously powerful self-destructive formation. In a critical life-or-death situation, what they believed to be a hope for being reborn had turned out to be a means to perish with t

She knew that today's explosion after Mr. Chardon had detonated his pineal gland meant that both he and Charlie were now dead. This presented the perfect opportunity for her to disappear without a trace. At this point, she had no desire to return to the Qing Eliminating Society or continue serving the British Lord. In her eyes, this person was extremely terrifying, and staying by his side would likely lead her to an outcome that was no worse than Mr. Chardon’s fate.Instead of that, she thought it would be better for her to seize the opportunity to vanish from the world. After recovering from her injuries, she could find a suitable place to live in seclusion and make the most of the remaining two years of her life. For her, living freely for two years would be much better than living for another two hundred years with the British Lord.With this thought in mind, she endured the intense pain and continued to crawl laboriously into the depths of the mountains.-Three minutes ago, at

Having said that, Albert, who was in a state of panic, immediately rushed out and jumped onto the helicopter waiting in the courtyard directly. He then anxiously told the pilot who was on standby, “Quick! Take off!”At this moment, a figure quickly ran out, and Merlin jumped onto the helicopter with just a few quick steps, saying, “Mr. Albert, I'll go with you!”Albert hurriedly said, “Chief Lammy, I am acting on Master Wade's orders to ensure the safety of you and the Acker family members. It's better for you to stay here!”Merlin shook his head and said, “Mr. Albert, don't forget that I am a police officer. If there's any unexpected situation, especially in investigating the scene, no one is more professional than me!”After some consideration, Albert agreed and said, “I’ll have to trouble you then, Chief Lammy!” After saying that, he turned to the pilot and said, “Take off!”The helicopter increased the throttle and rose from the ground, speeding toward Willow Manor. As they

Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he

As Yolden and Matilda were remarrying after living abroad for years, the wedding ceremony was much simpler, skipping Oskian customs and having a simple wedding reception for their guests at the hotel hall.There weren't that many guests either—aside from their children and close friends, only a handful of Yolden's colleagues at Aurous Hill University were invited.As the celebrant, Charlie didn't have much to do and was mainly the emcee.He brought along his jacket as he headed out to Shangri-La, not wearing it immediately so that Claire wouldn't guess that he was attending Matilda's wedding.Arriving at the Hanging Gardens before the guests were supposed to arrive, he found Yolden working with the staff to finalize the preparations.Seeing Charlie, Yolden approached him and said, "Thanks for coming this early, Charlie."Noticing that he was a little tired, Charlie asked in concern, "Had a bad night?"Yolden nodded, sighing, "Paul's uncle caused a huge mess. Both Matilda and I a

Tarlon nodded. "How do you suggest we find them?"Fleur scowled. "There's no rush. There are things which I'm still confused about, so just keep a close eye on the Ackers and the Wades for the time being. Report to me right away if anything important comes up—don't afford our enemies any opportunities to exploit.""Yes, milady!" -The next day, more news outlets were covering the joint project between the Ackers and the Wades as word continued to spread.However, neither family revealed too many details, be it the name of the company, who was the CEO, or the scale of their business.While the public was dying with curiosity, nothing else was known.Still, Aurous Hill's officials were especially interested, with the town hall visiting the Ackers the next day and showing utmost sincerity by leasing a whopping 2-million-square-meter land along the southern highway. Still, the condition was for the Ackers to come true on their promise to propel the city's economy to 15 billion US d

Fleur had repeatedly mentioned the conspiracy theory of Ashley using a body double over the last twenty years.Tarlon had investigated from many different angles, but everything from the gender, age, dental records, to body figure pointed to the fact that the deceased was Ashley Acker.And yet, Fleur had never bought it, insisting that Curtis was prepared for them just because Curtis' son had gone missing soon after.There was no way Curtis would save his son but not his wife, and the disfigured corpse only added fuel to Fleur's suspicion.Thus, over the last twenty years, Fleur had kept a close eye on the Ackers, arranging for two 'scholars' to be embedded amongst their ranks as sleeper agents. She went that far all to determine if Ashley was dead or had faked her death.However, the scholars had since been killed in action, and they had no spies within the Ackers left.As for Tarlon, he still doubted Fleur's theory even now, but he remained respectful as he spoke, "Milady, I mu

Meanwhile, on the edge of the South Pole, Tarlon Griffin rushed outside of Fleur Griffin's room, knocking the door gingerly as he announced, "I have news, my lady!"Fleur didn't respond, but the thick wooden door between them slowly opened as if pushed by an invisible force.Tarlon entered to find Fleur seated on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles. Her eyes remained closed as she molded her Reiki, asking, "What is it?"Tarlon quickly answered, "News from Oskia. The Ackers are partnering with the Wades on a joint venture into electric-powered vehicles."Fleur slowly opened her eyes, asking quietly, "And you're telling me because?"Tarlon quickly explained, "It just came out of the blue, so I thought I should report it to you right away."Fleur sighed. "After I tried and failed to wipe out the Ackers so many times, they wouldn't dare set foot stateside. If anything, they must have decided to seek asylum in Oskia by offering a substantial investment, and it's a base whe

Silent for a while, Matilda then asked Yolden, "Do you think I can do it?""Yes!" Yolden nodded without hesitation. "You definitely won't have any problems!"Matilda sighed, shaking her head. "We traveled far abroad to study while we were young, but we didn't return to Oskia to help the country's development. It's been thirty years since, and now that we have returned to the country at the same time, I definitely wouldn't turn down such an opportunity to help."Pausing, she then said, "That said, major corporations make it a point to not hire family members. Forget spouses—employees aren't allowed to date, and one of the two will be asked to resign if necessary."Don't you think it's inappropriate since we are legally married, having gotten our certificate and all? And if we set these precedents, we would have trouble asking other employees to follow that policy. You are going to be a CEO, so you need a very clear answer on this issue."Yolden shrugged. "In the first place, that p

Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

"That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega
