Chapter 860
Author: Lord Leaf
Jacob glanced at Matilda in bewilderment. “Matilda, are you very proficient in law and the firm?”

Paul chuckled and said, “Uncle, don’t underestimate my mother. In fact, she is also a Ph.D. graduate from Yale. She and my father met at the Master’s School at Yale and married afterward. Later, my father founded the law firm and my mother was always there to assist him. If not because of my mother, my father’s career would not take off and sail so smoothly.”

Then, he sighed, “Too bad I’m still not capable of handling the firm myself yet, so I need my mother’s help to assist me.”

Matilda chuckled, “Son, you have done a great job. I hope that you can grow up as soon as possible and take over the company as a whole, then I can finally enjoy my retirement.”

She couldn’t help sighing, “Now that I’m back to Oskia and Aurous Hill, my biggest dream is not to start our family business here, but to enjoy the retirement life of an Oskian old lady peacefully.”

Then, she secretly gazed at Jacob a

    Ashley understood that people never shared the exact same experiences, especially when it comes to pain.While they might be sad if they were caught in the same depressing situation, someone might eventually overcome it, leaving the rest feeling lonely. It was just like how classmates would feel if a whole high-school class failed to advance to university—it offered a peace of mind.However, if everyone except one was afforded a second chance while that one person had to start working, the one person left out would feel lonely and helpless even if he was supposedly happy for them. After all, that person hadn't just lost the chance for higher education—they had also lost the comfort of resonance.That was why Ashley had been plagued by two questions for over twenty years.The first was how she should face her son and explain why she had gone missing for so long in the life of the child she had brought to this world.And the other was how she should tell Jeremiah that his son was lo

    After all, what if he failed to defeat Fleur and was slain, his parents' bloodline thus severed? How would he face his parents in the next world, then?With that in mind, Charlie couldn't help turning toward Claire, whispering, "Why don't we have a child together…?"It was nothing more than a soft murmur, but Claire seemed to hear him anyway.Her eyes still closed, she murmured, "I'm really busy… darling… in a couple of years, maybe...?"Startled, Charlie looked at Claire closely and realized that she must have been sleep-talking.In that state, anyone would have trouble telling a dream from reality. If they just happened to be dreaming about someone who also happened to be whispering into their ear at the same time, they tended to respond, albeit incoherently.So, Charlie could tell that Claire was dreaming of him, although he wondered if her answer was sincere or just half-hearted.And since he didn't mean to ask that question in the first place, he smiled tenderly at Claire

    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
