Chapter 4150

Author: Lord Leaf
After a short pause, Merlin added, “Bring in all the staff here tonight for investigation. Check if the number of personnel is the same, and let the staff identify if there are any missing people!”

The police officers immediately got to work. After that, Merlin said to Charlie, “You’re most likely the only witnesses at the scene. You didn’t witness the full incident, but you’ll be a great help in solving this case. We’ll need to trouble you to follow us to the police station to make a statement later.”

Charlie said, “Miss Golding is a public figure. If she’s seen going in and out of the police station at this time, I’m afraid the media here will try to fabricate fake news to gain attention. It'll be inconvenient.”

Having said that, Charlie suggested, “How about this. We’ll go back to the hotel first. You may come to the hotel to meet us for the statement later. We’ll give you our full cooperation.”

Merlin nodded and said, “That will do. Once I’m done with the crime scene, I’ll visi

He's Charlie Wade. The author doesn't need to have him make sense.

If there’s no phone signal, how did Charlie manage to call the police? Doesn’t make any sense at all.

    Merlin had always been unhappy with Xavion, mainly because of his dislike for Xavion.He had also heard that Xavion’s father, Spencer, had taken the opportunity to seize power while Jordan was vulnerable. Merlin admired Jordan a lot, so he despised Spencer and his son, Xavion.Xavion could not deal with Merlin because Merlin was just too famous, and he also had a high political status in the White House. Merlin was known as the light of the Oskians in the United States. He had even received an award from the current president for solving a serial murder case that had lasted for ten years.He had a strong following and supporter base in the United States and was viewed as a symbol to the Oskians in the United States. If something were to happen to him, the Oskians in the United States would parade for his justice.Therefore, Xavion had no way to deal with Merlin at all. He could not offend him nor do anything to him. If he hurt him, it would hurt the Fox family a lot.Merlin looked

    A police officer immediately came forward and warned him, “Sir, you have to leave now! If you continue to stay and disrupt the scene, we’ll have to take coercive measures against you!”Xavion ground his teeth as he barked, “I’ll see who dares to touch me!”The police officers were aware of Xavion’s identity, so they did not dare to use force on the furious Xavion.Merlin turned back and said, “Fine. Xavion, you can stay here if you’re just so stubborn.”Xavion was pleased to see Merlin’s compromise. He felt suffocated when others pushed him around and refused to comply with him. At last, he could at least win once.He snorted and said arrogantly, “Merlin, glad that you know what to do!”Merlin was not angered by Xavion’s arrogance at all. Instead, he spoke with a wry smile, “By the way, Xavion, the police are obliged to disclose such a tragic incident to the public. I'm sure many media will arrive soon to report this case. You can stay and have a good chat with them.”Upon sayin

    The bodyguard’s words made Finley panic more, and he quickly asked, “Who else died?!”The bodyguard shook his head and said, “I’m not sure about that.”After that, he could not be bothered to talk to Finley anymore and left in a hurry.Finley immediately fell into deep thought. ‘Homer has gone missing? Who did this? What happened to those Iga ninjas? Are they the ones who died?!’Finley never thought that the eight Iga ninjas he hired would attack Homer instead. Hence, he speculated that it might be another enemy that had kidnapped Homer.Finley had done a lot of despicable deeds in his life. However, he could swear that he had absolutely nothing to do with Homer’s disappearance.It was rare for him to face something with a clear conscience like this.He was not worried that Homer’s disappearance would have anything to do with him. He was only worried about the implications. If something happened to Homer, Finley might temporarily lose his protection. In that case, he might be

    According to the United States student visa policy, the visa would become invalid once you were expelled from the school. In this case, a student would have to leave the United States first in a normal process. However, this young man had been too ashamed to face his parents, so he had gone dark in New York.The young man had overstayed his visa illegally, and he did not have a fixed job or permanent residence. In order to survive, he usually stayed in an internet cafe in Oskiatown every day, and he earned his living by providing game-boosting services and doing other part-time jobs.If the income from his game-boosting job was insufficient, he would search for a one-day gig job to work. Once he had enough money, he would continue his stay in the internet cafe. He would come out to work when he ran out of money again.The young man was standing in the meeting room with the others while waiting for the police to question them.However, he was very anxious and nervous because he was

    Merlin’s spirit was lifted, and he hurriedly questioned the young man further, “Tell me more about the Japanese men.”Hamley dared not delay further and hurriedly answered, “I was recruited by the hotel as a temporary worker, and there were dozens of men in the same batch of temporary workers who came with me. There were about seven to eight Japanese men too. However, they’re not in these photos!”Merlin asked, “Can you tell me what they look like? What about their characteristics?”Hamley gave it some thought and said, “They look like any ordinary people. However, they looked more stern and never smiled at all. They never spoke and only used eye contact to communicate. They appeared sneaky and didn’t seem like good people at first glance.”Merlin asked in surprise, “How did you know they’re Japanese if they never spoke?”Hamley said, “I unintentionally saw one of their phones while on the way here, and he was using Japanese on his phone.”Merlin then asked, “Did you encounter th

    Fisher did not dare not to tell the police the truth nor confess to Xavion. After all, his family’s lives were in the ninjas’ hands.His life did not matter. However, what was the point of living if he could not save his family’s lives?!While he was feeling apprehensive, a police officer came over to him and asked, “Are you, Mr. Fisher Charles?”Fisher panicked a little and answered, “I-I... I am...”The police officer waved at him and said coldly, “Come with me.”Fisher panicked. He had no other choice but to follow the police officer with heavy footsteps. He soon came to Merlin's temporary office next door, and once inside, he trembled all over in fright.He was afraid of Merlin because he had heard of Merlin’s reputation. Thus, he timidly came to Merlin and stuttered, “H-Hello, Chief... Chief Lammy...”Merlin stared at him before suddenly interrogating him coldly, “Fisher Charles! Why did you collude with the Japanese ninjas to kidnap Homer Fox?!”Merlin’s sudden angry roar

    In Merlin’s point of view, the culprit had only tampered with surveillance footage within the hotel. If Fisher and the Japanese men had met outside before, it would be difficult for them to avoid all city surveillance.If Fisher could provide him with the time and place where they had met before, he would be able to find the video of these people.Charlie had left The Palace Hotel with Quinn, Dorothy, and Janus while Merlin was mobilizing the police to search for the video data based on Fisher’s confession.The charity dinner had been interrupted, leaving the group with no dinner. Thus, Charlie suggested finding a place to have dinner first.Besides, he was certain that Janus must have something to say to him. He also wanted to hear other suggestions from Janus.Janus did indeed have a lot of questions for Charlie. Charlie had ordered those Japanese ninjas to kidnap the Fox family’s young master, and this was no joke at all. He was afraid that Charlie could not handle it well, lea

    Janus nodded and said, “I’ve heard about it much later. They said that the Wade family gave away half their family assets to Ten Thousand Armies to avoid the calamity. That’s why I didn’t bring it up when I met you earlier.”Charlie waved his hand and said casually, “That’s just a rumor that I deliberately released. The real situation is exactly the opposite. The Wade family did not transfer their assets to Ten Thousand Armies at all. Instead, Ten Thousand Armies swore their allegiance to me. I just didn’t want the Wade family to be in the limelight, so this rumor came about.”Janus was dumbfounded by Charlie’s revelation, and he was in disbelief. Charlie had never told him this before.The famous Ten Thousand Armies was now under Charlie’s command, and this was a great addition to the Wade family’s strength. The Fox family’s assets were worth hundreds of billions of US dollars, but even they could not set up an armed mercenary organization the size of Ten Thousand Armies.Charlie

    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.

    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
