LOGINPenny was right—from a certain point of view, Charlie was keeping secrets from his wife just like the men in the Singer family.However, he wasn't that cold. Even if he had a child with Claire, he was not going to simply disappear on her.Still, seeing that Charlie was quiet, Penny realized that she had made an inappropriate comparison and quickly explained, "Sorry, Mr. Wade. I'm really not good with words. Please don't take offense."Charlie chuckled self-deprecatingly. "No, you don't have to apologize. What you said was true."Seeing the troubled look on Charlie's face, Penny didn't press the issue, having a hunch that Charlie had his own problems.They soon arrived downtown, and Penny had been taking in the sights as he drove to Luketown's Shangri-la, where Tanya and her crew were staying, too.Parking the BMW, Charlie then led Penny to the elevator, which took them straight to the top-floor suites.She had Isaac arrange a 300-square-meter luxury suite, with two deluxe rooms
Seeing how nervous Penny was, Charlie smiled, "Ms. Singer. You seem more wary than before, but you really don't have to worry. This is Oskia. No one's going to hurt you here."Penny nodded, hearing that alluring voice and that assuring smile.Still, she knew that Charlie had misunderstood. She wasn't wary because of the unfamiliar surroundings, but the fact that their status had changed significantly, along with her opinion of him.Being too dense emotionally to understand that, Charlie simply decided they had no reason to stay and told Penny, "Get in the car. We can talk on the way."Penny quickly said, "Yes, Mr. Wade."As Charlie opened the front door for her before she could reach it, her heart raced and her cheeks blushed harder as she got in.Once she sat, she had both her hands squeezed between her legs, more or less uneasy.After Charlie got on, he quickly drove out of the airbase and headed out to Luketown, asking, "Is this your first time being in Oskia, Ms. Singer?""
To no surprise, Penny had just taken a seat when a flight crew came in, informing the volunteers, "Everyone, please keep social interaction to a minimum as we have special agents with high clearance on the plane. Keep your mobile devices off and out of reach. Thank you for your cooperation."The volunteers include teachers and doctors who were screened thoroughly before they left the country, and therefore had clean backgrounds. Hearing that it was military business, they cooperated and promptly put away their phones.Penny and the black-clad youths were then seated sporadically, with only one of them occupying a seat in an entire row, while none of them talked to each other at all.In fact, the black-clad youths were sent by Emmett to cover Penny, as it was his style to be prudent and leave no loose ends. And in faraway Luketown, Charlie turned down Tanya's invitation to her afterparty once her concert ended, and drove out of the stadium straight to Choky Airbase.When he arrive
Just as Penny was left moping in her new surroundings, Porter approached her and told her politely, "Ms. Singer? Mr. Wade just called. He's asking you to prepare for a flight to Oskia by tomorrow, in a humanitarian aid transport.""I'm going to Oskia?!" Penny was delighted to hear that—she didn't know Charlie that well and had no idea if she was valuable to him. She had been worried for a while that Charlie wouldn't pay her further attention after returning to Oskia, as she had barely a couple of years more to live, and it was almost impossible to save her.Moreover, she offered no value in return—even if she was sent to help fight the Qing Eliminating Society, she just couldn't inflict any actual damage.Just as she thought that she'd be stuck in Syria, waiting for Fleur's poison to kick in and die, Charlie sent for her!Fighting back her thrill, she asked, "Is that true, Mr. Waldron? I'm sure that the Qing Eliminating Society will be searching for me, considering my strategic v
Charlie replied, "In two days? That's the date of Tanya's first concert in Luketown, and it's another four days before I can bring her to Aurous Hill if I pick her up. Isn't there a chance of her getting caught in Luketown?""There shouldn't be," Vera replied. "She is supposed to be military with clearance. Local officials won't have authority to look into her, and any credentials we're giving her are genuine."Pausing, she then asked, "Are you driving to Luketown?""Yes," Charlie replied. "In fact, I'm on my way there.""Great!" Vera giggled. "You can pick her up from the airport and arrange for her to stay in the hotel you're staying in, and tell her to stay in the room and focus on cultivation. Then, after the concerts, you can bring her back to Aurous Hill. No one will know where you are since you're not using public transport."Charlie had to agree with Vera, not to mention that no one compared to Vera once it came to staying hidden.After all, she had managed to hide from F
Once Charlie booked the flight and the lodgings, he informed his in-laws.They never went on a trip together, so they were filled with expectations, if a little brief.And when Elaine heard that they would be staying at the Cheval Blanc Randheli, she promptly bragged about it on social media, along with the brochures and costs from their website.She always loved to brag, and naturally would seize such a perfect chance to build hype.Still, Charlie wasn't going to remain in Aurous Hill for long, as Tanya's next stop was in three days.After resting for a couple of days, he had to depart again.Luketown was less than 200 miles away from Aurous Hill, which was quite close.Since there were no direct flights between the cities, he decided to drive.Jacob's first car—the BMW 530—had stayed unused for a while, so Charlie packed a few sets of clothes before leaving.As Claire saw her off, she reminded him repeatedly to drive safe, and he nodded repeatedly as he drove out of Thompson
Even though it looked like a simple slap, when the slap hit him, all the reiki that Charlie had been accumulating rushed and penetrated into his head, rushing along his body along the meridian as it burst all the important veins in his body.Since his important veins had already burst, he also lost a
Daniel was bouncing off the wall as he watched Claire gulp down the tea.Now, all he had to do was wait for the sleeping pills to take effect!After drinking the tea, Claire soon realized that something was off!She felt like her head was spinning, it was very dizzy and heavy.What was going on?She was
Who was this unfortunate person who actually had so much money to be fooled by this profiteer?Charlie could not help but ask Jacob, “Who did Zachary sell those pills to?”“I’m not sure. Zachary told me that he had to maintain his professional ethics and keep his client’s information confidential.”Aft
