The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3003
Sophie’s words suddenly made Claire feel even more embarrassed.She stroked the hair between her temples before she hesitated as she said ambiguously, “This… Well, I don’t know if it’s considered an arranged marriage…”Sophie could not help but say, “The both of you did not know or understand each other before you got married. So, there is naturally no emotional foundation between the both of you. At the same time, the both of you only got married at your grandfather’s request. Isn’t that a typical arranged marriage? This is just like Marie Antoinette’s marriage to Louis XVI in ancient history. The both of them did not have any feelings for each other, and they only got married at Louis XVI’s mother’s request.”With that said, Sophie suddenly thought of something as she asked offhandedly, “It seems as though Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette never had any romantic feelings between them throughout their whole lives. Could it be the same case for the both of you?!”Claire felt even more

However, the discovery just now had given Sophie a little more confidence deep in her heart.This was because the biggest obstacle did not seem to be as difficult to overcome as she had initially imagined. This instantly gave Sophie the feeling as though she could see the light at the end of the tunnel.Therefore, Sophie walked out of the house and went into the courtyard while her mother was busy chatting with Claire about the plan. After that, she took out her cell phone before she sent a text message to Charlie on WhatsApp: [Benefactor, I really would not have expected you and your wife to be in an arranged marriage!]Meanwhile, Charlie had just left the old town, and he was driving toward the airport.Charlie was still thinking about the circumstances of his meeting with Helen and Sophie when he was on the way there. He could not help but sigh as he thought to himself, ‘It seems as though Aurous Hill is indeed very small. If everything were to continue developing this way, th

While Charlie was heading to the airport, Jaime had also learned of Quinn’s private jet’s departure time from his own channels.It just so happened that his spy at the venue had also told him that Quinn would only be arriving at the venue for the rehearsal after one o’clock in the afternoon.The timing of the plane take-off and the timing of her rehearsal happened to coincide perfectly, giving him full confidence in regards to Quinn’s itinerary.He felt that since Quinn would only land after twelve o’clock and close to one o’clock in the afternoon, he did not need to rush to the airport so early.So, he instructed his subordinates that he would be departing on time, at half-past eleven, to leave for the airport to pick Quinn up. However, what he did not know was that Quinn was already on a plane to Aurous Hill.Charlie arrived at the airport at half-past nine in the morning. Isaac had already arrived by the time he reached.Charlie drove his car inside the airport under Isaac’s

Charlie then took the initiative to pull the passenger car door open as he spoke up, “Let’s go. I’ll take you to Shangri-La.”“Okay!” Quinn hurriedly got into the car with the bouquet of flowers in her hand.Charlie then signaled at Isaac, who also got into his car and drove ahead of them to lead the way as they left the airport.On the way, Charlie asked Quinn, “Nana, what time will Uncle Golding and Aunt Golding be coming here tomorrow?”Quinn said, “They should also be coming here at about this time, or perhaps a little later.”As she spoke, Quinn said again, “By the way, Brother Charlie, if you have nothing else to do in the morning tomorrow, we can come and pick them up from the airport together!”Charlie nodded and said, “Okay. You can confirm the time with Uncle Golding and Aunt Golding later. At that time, we can come and pick them up from the airport together.”Quinn immediately took out her cell phone and said, “There is no need to wait until later. I can send my fathe

When Quinn heard that her parents were about to go for a meeting, she hurriedly said, “Dad, Mom, you guys should not be in such a hurry to hang up.! I’ve not shown you the bouquet of flowers that Brother Charlie has given me!”After she had said that, Quinn hurriedly switched the camera view as she pointed the camera at the bouquet of flowers on her lap.Rachel, who was on the other end of the video, smiled and said, “Oh! It is such a big bouquet of roses. Charlie is indeed thoughtful! I’ve already been together with your father for so many years, but it seems as though your father has never really given me any flowers before.”Yule said awkwardly, “We are already an old married couple. So, why would we still pay any attention to all these things?”Rachel gave him a look before she said, “So, this is the difference between you and Charlie. Why don’t you just take a look at how romantic Charlie is? He prepared a bouquet of roses even though he is simply picking Quinn up from her fli

As she spoke, Quinn asked him again, “By the way, Brother Charlie, you’ll be going back to Eastcliff during the Tomb Sweeping Festival to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony, right?”Charlie nodded. “That’s right. Why?”“No reason.” Quinn said, “The Tomb Sweeping Festival is in April, right? That means I’ll be able to see you in Eastcliff again soon.”Charlie smiled slightly. “Yes. I’ll definitely come and visit you, Uncle Golding, and Aunt Golding at your house then.”Quinn said, “Your timing is perfect because I’ll be going to the United States in the middle of April.”“Going to the United States?” Charlie asked curiously, “Why are you suddenly going to the United States?”“It’s not sudden.” Quinn said, “Since I’m going to quit the entertainment industry after my concert tour this time, I’ve decided to hold a few more concerts. It can also be considered as my way of giving my fans an explanation. I also have a lot of fans in Europe, the United States, Japan, and Korea.

Charlie drove to Shangri-La before taking the internal elevator with Quinn to the room that her team had already reserved.As soon as she entered the room, Quinn ran to the sofa in two or three steps before she slouched on the sofa as she said emotionally, “Oh, my God. It is really tiring to wake up early just to catch a flight.”Charlie laughed and said, “You can rest for a while first if you’re tired. We can go out and eat after you are well rested.”Quinn hurriedly asked, “Brother Charlie, where do you intend to bring me to eat?”Charlie then said, “It’s up to you. If you don’t mind, we can make do by eating in the dining department in Shangri-La. If you mind, we can go and eat at Albert’s restaurant, The Heaven Springs.”Quinn hurriedly waved her hand and said, “Oh, forget about The Heaven Springs. It’s too tiring. I will also feel very tired if I were to have a very heavy and sumptuous meal. Besides, I also have to get to the venue for my rehearsal at one o’clock. I have a t

“Okay.” Jaime nodded. After locating Quinn’s cell phone number, he dialed it. However, Jaime received a prompt from the other end of the line: “Sorry, but the number that you have dialed has already been turned off. Please try again later.”Jaime was even more baffled when he saw that Quinn had actually turned off her cell phone.After all, how could he have known that Quinn had already long turned on the ‘Do Not Disturb’ mode on her cell phone. When her cell phone was in this mode, only a few people who were on her approved list would be able to call her. As for other people, regardless of who they were, when they called her, they would only receive a prompt stating that her cell phone had been turned off.So, Jaime hurriedly asked someone to check the relevant information at Aurous Airport, but he could not find Quinn’s entry registration information at the airport.He instinctively thought that Quinn must not have arrived in Aurous Hill yet. Perhaps she had been delayed in Eas

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
