The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 4085
If unremarkable young women disappeared, at most, it would spark only a little attention in a small local community. The news might not even be broadcasted on a city-level media. Thus, the risks were non-existent and it was much safer for Finley.That wasn’t the case for someone as renowned as Quinn Golding. News of her disappearance would shake the entire globe. If the resulting investigation revealed his tracks, wouldn’t it be disastrous for him?Thinking of this, he hurriedly said, “Young Master Fox, I must be honest with you. You’re already twenty-seven years old this year, and you’re of a marriageable age. If you really fancy Quinn Golding, you can definitely pursue her and find a way to marry her…”Homer snapped disdainfully, “Do you think that’s easy? She’s been claiming that she’s looking for her prince charming for years! She says she won’t marry anyone but him. Even if I were to pursue her, it’s unlikely for her to accept me. Why should I bother? Why not just kidnap her

Finley tried his best to think of a way to persuade Homer into giving up, but it was futile. Homer was knee-deep in excitement. Unable to hide his ecstasy, he murmured in a shaky voice filled with desire, “Damn… I’ve been with so many women, but all of them combined won’t even be as good as Quinn Golding… If I can violate her, my life will be complete!”“Before, it’s always been low-born women with no class or status. To be honest, I’ve long grown tired of them. I want to change. I want someone more challenging! I want more stimulation!”Finley bit the bullet. He mustered all his courage and retorted, “Young Master Fox, Quinn Golding is indeed the best among all women. But the risk is far too great! I fear you’ll have a hard time getting out of the mess if things were exposed!”Homer didn’t share Finley’s concern. On the contrary, he was positively brimming with joy. “It’s exciting because of the risk!”To further prove his point, he said, “Finley, all walks of life have their own

However, Finley knew that it wouldn’t do him any good to take the initiative to make such a request. After all, he was just a person who specialized in getting the dirty job done for Homer. Most of the time, Homer would keep a certain distance from Finley in his everyday life. Fortunately, Homer’s mind right now was filled with thoughts of getting Quinn. Upon discovering that Finley was coming to New York, he naturally wanted Finley to stay in his house so that they could discuss their plans properly.Finley agreed without hesitation. “Okay. Since that’s the case, I’ll fly over when I’m ready.”Homer was ecstatic. “Let me know before you take off. I’ll get my butler to pick you up at the airport.”“Alright, Young Master Fox. Thanks for the trouble!”Finley thanked Homer and hung up. After that, he called for his assistant and instructed, “Tell the crew to get ready. I’m going to New York.”His assistant pointed at Franco’s corpse and asked in a low voice, “Young Master… If we he

Finley was blissfully unaware of the fact that he had been exposed.On the way to the airport, he kept telling his assistant to make sure to do a good job in dealing with the Italian mafia’s family members, and to make sure nothing would go wrong in Seattle.The assistant took down notes one by one, and asked, “Young Master, should we send someone to Vancouver to investigate the girls from last night? Perhaps the mastermind has something to do with them.”“No! Don’t do that!” Finley refused without hesitation. “The other party can kidnap more than eight hundred gang members in Vancouver with ease. If we dare to return there to look into his strength, it’s no better than courting our own deaths! They’ve probably set up a trap and are waiting for us. My priority as of this moment is to avoid any confrontation, so we won’t run into any more trouble.”The assistant nodded and replied respectfully, “I got it, Young Master.”Finley added, “Stop all businesses in that area starting from

Charlie nodded and said, “I’ll arrange for someone to send you all to Aurous Hill when I’m finished with my business. All of your clothing, food and accommodation will be sent to Aurous Hill in advance.”Stephanie interrupted with a timely reminder. “Brother Charlie, please don’t forget about Claudia. She’s returning to Aurous Hill to study…”Charlie smiled. “Don’t worry. I won’t forget it.”After that, Charlie bade goodbye to the three before making his way to the airport to take a plane to Providence.Before taking off, Charlie called Claire to ask how she was doing in Providence. Claire said that she was fine, and then asked worriedly, “Honey, what about Stephanie? Has her problem been solved?” Charlie laughed, touched by her kindness. “It’s done. Some gangsters wanted to hurt her. Her friend found out and requested my help. I’ve solved everything, so Stephanie’s no longer in danger. Don’t worry.”Claire heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s great. That’s really great! I didn’t s

“New York?!” Charlie was shocked beyond belief.He received information that Finley had also escaped to New York, but how could he have expected that Quinn would also come to New York?Concerned, he immediately asked, “Nana, wasn’t your itinerary set long ago? Why are you making such a big change at the last minute?”Quinn grinned cheekily and said, “I know you’re in Providence. That place is very close to New York, isn’t it?”Charlie was surprised once again. “How did you know that?”“I asked someone else!” Quinn said. “I spoke to Chairman Cameron from Shangri-La, and he told me that you went to the United States to accompany Claire to study.”Quinn pretended to be angry and said, “I was originally planning to go to Aurous Hill to surprise you. I called Chairman Cameron to ask for his cooperation, only to find out that you’re no longer in Aurous Hill. Brother Charlie, why didn’t you tell me that you were going to the United States?”Charlie replied awkwardly, “Isn’t it all beca

Since Quinn would be arriving in New York, it wasn’t the time for Charlie to close the net yet.If he did so, Quinn might be in danger.So, Charlie asked her hurriedly, “Nana, can you push back your concert date a little? It’d be better for you to wait for half a month before going to New York.”“No, Brother Charlie,” Quinn said. “The date’s already been set, and the organizers in the United States have already started to produce the promotional materials. They’ve also started the pre-sale of the concert tickets. It’s impossible for me to change the date at a whim.”Quinn then asked, “Brother Charlie… Could it be that you don’t want to see me? Is my concert inconvenient for you? I can pretend to be one of your Feng Shui clients! I won’t expose anything, even if you bring your wife along with you to see my concert like last time…”Charlie was startled to hear her mournful words. Wanting to coax her, he quickly explained, “That’s not what I meant… I just heard that New York’s not ve

Porter’s explanation didn’t surprise Charlie one bit.He knew very well that the United States wasn’t Ten Thousand Armies’ territory, and that most of the army’s manpower remained in the Middle East. It was impossible for them to have a stronghold on this place.What’s more, New York was an international metropolis. There were several civilian airports within the city, and the annual throughput of New York JFK International Airport was at least tens of millions. He could imagine how difficult it would be to find a single person among traffic flow of more than two hundred thousand passengers. Plus, Finley had likely already used the privileged channel to leave the airport. That made it even more impossible to track him. It was almost inevitable for Porter and his subordinates to lose track of Finley for the time being.Having come to a conclusion, Charlie said lightly, “Porter, you don’t have to blame yourself too much. This kind of thing is perfectly normal. I understand.”Char

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
