Charlie was already getting nervous, but he had no choice other than to follow Yule inside.Yule had him sit on the couch beside him, while Rachel and Quinn sat opposite.Studying Charlie, he asked in concern, "So, how have you been holding up lately?"Charlie knew he was asking about the Qing Eliminating Society, and hence replied, "There has been progress, and we even took down one of their African bases a while ago.""That's great!" Yule exclaimed in delight. "Just keep chipping away at their forces. No matter how powerful they are, one day, you'll definitely catch up to them in strength!"Charlie sighed. "It's not going to be that easy from now on. On this particular occasion, I was informed that they intend to separate the dead soldiers from their families, using them as hostages to compel absolute loyalty."In short, it'd be very difficult to convince the forces in each base to defect, as they would fight to their last breath. The dead soldiers themselves are in a miserable

Early in the morning, Charlie drove an inconspicuous MPV from the Wades' residence to the airport.As Quinn had chartered a private jet, no one was aware of her flight plans, and Charlie was already waiting outside the VIP lounge when it landed.Several men and women-in-black disembarked first, escorting a young woman wearing a face mask and a baseball cap.Charlie wound down the window of the front passenger seat, and upon seeing him, Quinn hurried over.Only her eyes were visible as she was covered everywhere else, but Charlie could still see the thrill and delight in her eyes.One of her female bodyguards quickly caught up to open the door for her, and as Quinn got in, she smiled sweetly at him, "How long were you waiting?""Just got here myself," Charlie chuckled.Quinn quickly closed the door and wound up the window while saying, "Let's go straight home. My parents are waiting.""Your parents? They're up this early?""Not usually," Quinn giggled. "They're waiting for us b

Mrs. Sun quickly asked, "Are you saying we should tell Claire… everything?""Yes," Ashley said solemnly. "It's time to make her aware of Charlie's current situation, that he can't keep looking behind his back all the time. If she leaves him—even briefly, it would definitely be in everyone's interest."Mrs. Sun nodded and asked, "Well, how should we tell Claire? And we'd need to be persuasive… Should I go?""No," Ashley refused solemnly right then. "To society, you're merely a missing person who vanished years ago. Even if you showed up suddenly in front of Claire and told her such things, she might not necessarily believe you."Mrs. Sun tilted her head in thought. "Well, who would be the right person for the job?""If there is anyone up to task, it'd be Stephen Thompson," Ashley replied. "If it's the Wades or the Ackers… Well, they can be persuasive, but Charlie will get upset if he finds out. We shouldn't let our own family play the villains here, so we just have to ask Stephen t

The night skies of Eastcliff were bright but exceedingly cold.Charlie lay in bed, tossing and turning, losing his sleep.The past, present, and future kept overlapping in his mind, leaving his thoughts a mess.-Meanwhile, in the temple on top of Mount Pantro, thousands of miles away, a woman as beautiful as a painting was seated on the garden armchair, gazing up at the boundless stars.Even though she was long past fifty, there were barely any wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.Naturally, it was Ashley Acker, Charlie's mother.The elderly but robust Mrs. Sun hurried into the garden just then, bowing her head respectfully as she said, "Ma'am. Stephen Thompson's man reported from the Wades' residence that your father-in-law… had a discussion with your son earlier.""Oh, and what about?" Ashley asked in curiosity."About Ms. Golding, Ma'am," Mrs. Sun replied.Ashley smiled tenderly. "Oh, Quinn… And regarding what, specifically?"As Mrs. Sun told Ashley everything, Ashley wa

Nodding, Charlie said, "I'll tell her when I see her and ask her if she'd like to visit.""Good!" Jeremiah laughed cheerfully. "Well, it's dinner in this house tomorrow… Oh, and since Quinn is coming, why not invite her parents too?"Charlie was at once uneasy. "What are you up to, Gramps?"Jeremiah chuckled. "Nothing. It's been a while since we've all had dinner together, and there's no problem with inviting friends over for dinner, right?"Charlie sighed in exasperation. "It's your call, but I think you should call Mr. Golding personally if you want to invite him over. I'd rather not have to play messenger.""Sure thing!" Jeremiah nodded without hesitation. "Once you pick Quinn up from the airport, go visit Yule and his wife, and I'll call him in the afternoon to invite him over. I'm sure he won't refuse.""Alright," Charlie nodded and stayed silent.He was completely on the back foot, and anything he said would be used against him.So, he simply stopped talking.Jeremiah th

Jeremiah's earnest talk only left Charlie in despair.He had never considered the issue before in-depth—it was just not necessary to make that choice at this time, and there was no ideal solution.But Jeremiah was right about one thing.If Charlie did succeed in taking down Fleur Griffin and the Qing Eliminating Society, he could make his triumphant return to the fold of the Wade family.Then, he would make it known to the world that the son of Curtis Wade and Ashley Acker lives.But when that day came, what would he tell Claire?She would find out—it was just a matter of time, and the thought left Charlie weary.Lies beget more lies, and he had been lying from the start. Not only did he lie to Claire about who he was, but he had also lied about many other things, including about his parents.Other matters aside, he was the one who had had Elaine thrown in prison for stealing his debit card and wiring all his savings to her own account. While Claire had been worrying, he had be

These collegemates sure behave like they are sophomores in highschool, rather than having graduated postsecondary over 20y ago. I'm that age, and my former classmates are much more down to earth, and mature. Just had our 30th HS reunion.

Ok we just met William but I already know he's a douchebag. He really doesn't seem like the type of guy Matilda would like anyway. I'm sure she stays away from arrogant bastards
