Chapter 7185
Charlie was stumped.He definitely did not expect Quinn to say that out loud, as he really expected her to share a tacit understanding not to press the issue.He didn't expect Quinn to just give up on pretenses and say it out loud.Still, he suddenly realized that this wasn't just a matter of perpetuating his lineage.For Quinn, this was just as important to her… If not more.And seeing his conflict, Quinn quietly reached over to tug on his arm, assuring him, "You don't have to feel pressured. I've got your back no matter what happens."Charlie nodded quietly, but he wasn't at ease at all despite his calmness.-Shangri-la was already congested with journalists when they arrived, as everyone was hoping to catch an exclusive for Tanya's first concert in Eastcliff.Fortunately, Shangri-la was sublime when it came to protecting their guests' privacy, clearing out the entire top floor for Tanya and her crew.Aside from the presidential suite booked for Tanya, the other business s

Quinn's words left Charlie feeling a little awkward, as he didn't expect her to see through him right then.Even as he drove, he chuckled awkwardly, "No, I'm not hiding… We're going straight to Tanya to discuss your cameo…"Quinn smiled, shaking her head. "Please. I know we've been apart for years, but I still know you."She didn't make it obvious, but Charlie knew full well that she could read his mind.But while he wasn't sure how to respond, she added, "There are plenty of things that are less complicated than you think, and priority matters—it can wait."Charlie nodded, sighing. "I guess the old folks are getting a little impatient."Quinn nodded too, her tone serious, "There are plenty of things they're worried about, especially the situation where you might fail. But I'm not worried."Charlie chuckled. "You're that confident in me?""Yep!" Quinn replied bluntly, having unconditional faith in him.She wouldn't doubt it for a moment if Charlie were to one day claim the wor

Pausing, Charlie remembered Jeremiah's request and said, "By the way, my grandfather asked me to invite everyone to his house for dinner if you're not busy?"Rachel's nerves had already eased upon hearing that Charlie would be dropping by for lunch.Now, she was even more relieved hearing that Jeremiah was inviting her family and knowing that the old man was going to make his move.Laughing, she said, "Sure. Yule and I have nothing to do since we're retired, and it's the same for Quinn since she's on a break. Right, Quinn?"Quinn smiled. "I mean, I was going to take a break until my final concert, but I'll probably be busy over the next few days. It's an honor to be a guest singer at Tanya's concert, and as an Eastcliff native, I guess I can consider it as being a host for a very important guest."Rachel nodded. "If you say so. I've got your back."Seeing that everything was in place with no schedule clashes, Charlie called Tanya.It was still rather early, so he wasn't sure if
Chapter 7182
Rachel smiled at Charlie like a mother-in-law would, with increasing admiration.She had been amongst Curtis' legions of fangirls back when he had charmed the capital, but it was one of sheer admiration and not romance.Seeing how Curtis had taken the world by storm and how Charlie had risen through the ranks over the past couple of years, Rachel was even more eager to have Charlie formally marry Quinn.Even so, she was aware that Charlie had plenty of issues when he had been wandering around for years. She therefore couldn't force it, even as she hoped her daughter would perpetuate Charlie's lineage—not just to start a family, but to fulfill the three-year promise.If he really broke the promise, he would definitely ghost her, judging from his character.That meant her daughter would completely miss a chance to be with him in this lifetime.She was a woman too, and she had seen firsthand how Helen Dunn, Sheldon Schulz's ex-wife, had suffered her whole life because she wasn't the

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
Chapter 7180
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

Too many story in ten chapters
She got beaten already before that when lost all the family savings. Did you forget what you wrote?
Charlie could just kick them all out his villa after all the man is sleeping on the floor in his own 10 bedroom villa and taking all this crap. Can’t sleep with his wife while other women love and want him. Stupid
It wasn’t her money to begin with she just takes and take. She should just disappear from the book
Then stop trying to steal what doesn’t belong to you. Can this writer just take her out the book.
Cheaper chapter
Should’ve left her ass in the detention center
She was just beating up when she loss all her money gambling. So you can’t say that she’s never been beating up.
