The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 2883
Twenty minutes later.The taxi stopped in front of the entrance of the Mount Phoenix Cemetery, which was the largest cemetery in the suburbs of Aurous Hill.The cemetery here occupied several nearby hills, and it had a very large area. Many people would usually come here during the day to pay their respects, but at night, there was not even a dog in sight here.The taxi dropped the great-grandfather and great-grandchild duo off at the gate of the cemetery before the taxi driver stepped on the accelerator and scurried away.Mason surveyed the white jade large gate in front of him under the dim moonlight, and he could not help but feel a little nervous as he said, “Great-grandpa, why is there not even a single staff working at this place?”Carvalho shook his head. “I’m not sure either. The gate is closed, but we do not know whether it is locked. Why don’t you help me go over there and take a look?”The both of them came to the gate. When Mason pushed the gate, the iron gate did not

“He’s really dead?!” When Mason heard this, he was immediately frightened to death as he said nervously, “This… isn’t this the zombies that we see in movies?!”“No!” Carvalho waved his hand and said seriously, “This is what happens when a person is infected with a parasitic worm. He is no longer driven by his consciousness, but he is driven by the parasitic worm.”“Parasitic worm?!” Mason was dumbfounded as he asked, “What is the principle behind that thing?!”Carvalho said seriously, “There is not much principle. It is just a kind of ruthless metaphysics mystery. For parasitic worms, the lower level is to just raise a bunch of poisonous worms so that they can kill one another. The worm that survives to the end is the parasitic worm. However, that kind of parasitic method is relatively lowly, and it is similar to raising a poisonous snake or a wolfhound so that you can release it to bite people. There is not much technical content.”As Carvalho spoke, he changed the topic and said,

Carvalho looked at Mason and explained, “You might think that things such as parasitic worms seem to be untraceable and are very unscientific, but in truth, it is actually very scientific.”As he spoke, Carvalho then explained further, “A parasitic worm feeds on the human brain. Moreover, it needs to be a fresh human brain. This also means that the person must have just died not too long ago. Although the human brain has been devoured by the parasitic worm and has lost the entire central control nervous system, the person’s bodily functions do not lose their vitality immediately. It is just like how a brain-dead person would often still have a heartbeat and blood circulation.”“The reason why a parasitic worm is so magical is because after it feeds on the human brain, it can temporarily take over the human’s central nervous system and perform a simple manipulation and control of the human’s body.”“For instance, the security guard just now could walk all the way here because he is u

Carvalho did not know how to respond to his words. So, he could only respond with a bout of forced laughter.Falco looked at the security guard who was standing motionless beside him as he reached out his hand and suddenly shouted, “Come back!”At this time, a white worm that could be compared to the size of an adult sea cucumber suddenly drilled out of the security guard’s hair. The worm was white and fat, and it had a large mouth that was filled with black and broken teeth. There was also some red and white residue left on its teeth, and it looked incredibly disgusting.After coming out from the top of the security guard’s head, it suddenly twisted its body like a carp before it flew up into the air and flew directly into Falco’s hand.Falco held the fat worm with one hand as he stroked it lovingly with his other hand.As for the worm, it rolled back and forth on the palm of his hand as it emitted some strange and bizarre squeaking sound. Falcon continued stroking the worm as

Carvalho was extremely unwilling to cooperate and work together with such an evil person.However, he did not dare to offend the other party. So, he could only nod and say, “That’s only natural! Both of us have our own strengths. Therefore, we will only be able to complement each other’s strengths by working together.”“That’s right!” Falco smiled faintly and said, “In that case, I’d like to trouble Master Mason to try to find a way to approach Sophie Schulz tomorrow. I’ll send the address to you through a text message later.”“Okay.” Carvalho nodded and he asked again, “Master Xanthos, I wonder if there’s anything else?”“No.” Falco smiled slightly and said, “This is the only matter. Sorry for making you go through all that trouble to come all the way here, Master Mason. I was also worried that other people would overhear our conversation. I hope that you will not take this to heart.”Carvalho sneered in his heart. Couldn’t he see right through Falco’s thoughts? This guy was not

At this moment, Isaac’s subordinates were waiting in the dark at the entrance of the hotel. They were just waiting for the great-grandfather and the great-grandson to come back so that they could do a backward tracing of their movements just now.Carvalho did not know that someone was already watching them.When the taxi stopped at the entrance of Shangri-La, Carvalho got out of the car with Mason’s help.Immediately afterward, the both of them, who were already exhausted, hurried back to their rooms to rest.As for Isaac’s subordinates as well as the young men from the Harker family, they used a car to chase after the taxi as they left the scene.A few minutes later, they forcefully stopped the taxi at an intersection. After that, one of Isaac’s subordinates came to the taxi driver’s car window as he looked at the taxi driver and spoke up, asking, “Where did you pick up the great-grandfather and great-grandson just now?”“This…”When the taxi driver saw that this person did not

Isaac realized that things might be getting a little serious, and he hurriedly arranged for his subordinates to follow the trail.The surveillance cameras at the entrance of Shangri-La were very comprehensive, and it could be said that there was a 360-degree coverage without any blind spots.So, Isaac’s subordinates quickly found the car license plate through the surveillance camera videos.Immediately after that, they found the taxi that was trying to get some passengers in the city through the city’s taxi positioning system.In order to form an absolute deterrent to the taxi driver, Isaac specially transferred Albert’s subordinate, Jayden Marquez, over so that Jayden could personally come forth and speak to the taxi driver.The taxi driver would not have expected to have alarmed one of the Four Great Guardians under Don Albert. So, even though he was very shocked and frightened at the same time, he immediately retold every detail of the circumstance that he could remember happen

“After that, he started a sect and recruited a wide range of disciples. He was in the limelight for some time. Many of the rich tycoons and mobsters in Hong Kong are his disciples…”“I’ve met this person a few times, and I’ve also drunk with him and chatted with him about the past and present times. So, I have a better understanding of him. He is very powerful, and he is not only proficient in the arts of mysterious Feng Shui, but he is also proficient in black magic and metaphysics. He is indeed very capable!”“He is not like Feng Shui masters like us who only know about mysterious Feng Shui, the Book of Changes, and the Eight Diagrams, but do not know anything about black magic, witchcraft, and other methods of killing people.” As Chandler spoke, he then said, “Falco Xanthos probably became Japheth Machen’s disciple more than thirty years ago. I also met him when I went to Hong Kong to visit Japheth Machen thirty years ago.”“Oh?” Charlie was very curious as he asked, “Since thi

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

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki

Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,
