Chapter 4348

Author: Lord Leaf
Charlie understood Janus’s gesture. He was unaware of the current situation, but he understood Janus’s message. The robbed girl seemed highly suspicious.

However, Charlie did not leave immediately. Instead, he went behind the woman and strode into Janus’s restaurant.

After entering, Charlie deliberately sat in a corner with his back to the door. Then, he greeted Janus and said, “I’d like to order a Roast Goose Rice.”

Janus didn’t want Charlie to come in at first. However, he didn’t say much after seeing that Charlie was in a relatively hidden position.

He replied, “Sure thing! Please wait a moment. I need to help this lady right here.”

After that, Janus took out his phone and dialed 911. Then, he turned to the girl and asked, “Would you like to speak to the police yourself, or should I do it for you?

The girl looked at Janus gratefully. “Please lend your phone to me. I can speak to the police myself.”

“Sure,” Janus handed his phone to her. The girl took it and dialed 911 at once

    The girl gave it a thought before replying, “Well, he was too fast for me to see. I couldn’t react in time, so I couldn’t get a good look on his face. Still, I’m pretty sure he’s an Oskian. He’s around the average height and quite thin. He’s very agile, too.”The police sounded helpless. “An Oskian around the average height, and quite thin… These people are everywhere in Oskiatown! If you don’t have any detailed descriptions, it’ll be difficult to catch him.”Then, he explained, “As you know, purse-snatching is a common problem in New York. Many had their phone, laptops, and bags snatched. There are at least a thousand cases daily, and it’s hard to catch the perpetrators.”The other policeman was looking around the shop while the two spoke. Then, he pointed to one of the surveillance probes facing the door and said, “The incident happened in front of this store. In that case, this surveillance probe must have captured it, right? If we can have an image of the criminal, it’ll be rela

    “I think so,” Janus’s face was grim as he continued solemnly, “Did you see that woman and the two police officers earlier? They were acting because they wanted to get the surveillance video from my shop. Since they went through that trouble, I’m sure they have other plans for it.” Charlie became a little curious and asked, “Janus, how can you tell that she and the two police officers were acting?” Janus explained, “A middle-aged Oskian man came to my shop as soon as it opened. The man casually ordered a meal and kept staring at the three surveillance cameras in the shop. Think about it. Why would any person care to observe the surveillance cameras in a small restaurant? At first, I thought he wanted to steal some cash from me. If not, then he’s probably a plain-clothes police officer.”Charlie asked, “What happened after that? Did he leave right after eating?”“Yes,” Janus said. “That man ate quickly and then paid for his meal. He left in a hurry. Afterwards, he quickly removed t

    Charlie was impressed at Janus’s attention to the minute details. He praised, “I guess they must think they’ve done a great job. Still, they couldn’t deceive you.” Janus waved his hand humbly. “You’re praising me too much, Mr. Wade. I’m not that attentive, but I’ve been in Oskiatown for many years. I’m so familiar with this place that I can immediately notice if anything strange happens here.”Janus then added with a smile, “It’s no exaggeration to say that after staying in one place for a long time, I can even tell if the next door dog’s barks sound different from usual.” His tone changed into one of worry as he asked Charlie, “Mr. Wade, why are the police paying attention to you? Did the Ten Thousand Armies leave any clues for them to track down?” Charlie shook his head. “The Ten Thousand Armies didn’t. Actually, I might have overlooked a small detail. I sent a girl with a sensitive identity to escort Jordan and Kathleen Fox back to New York. At that time, I didn’t think too m

    Thinking about it now, Charlie didn’t have time to cover up his traces in the restaurant before. He was on the second floor of the restaurant when he heard about Keith’s critical illness. Right after, he requested Quinn to take the Healing Pill to Los Angeles and save his grandfather. Everything had been decided in a hurry.If Christian checked Quinn’s itinerary before and after arriving in Los Angeles, there was no doubt he would pay attention to Janus’s restaurant. Janus could see Charlie’s helplessness. He knew what Charlie was thinking, and comforted Charlie. “It was a life and death situation. You had no other better alternatives. Fortunately, your uncle shouldn’t have noticed your existence.” Charlie’s voice shook slightly when he replied, “I went to your shop with Nana. He’ll probably recognize me if he has the shop’s surveillance video. I guess Merlin sent someone to get the surveillance video here because he wanted to know who came with Nana, and to find out what’s so s

    Charlie could see the determination blazing in Janus’s eyes. He knew he couldn’t force his Janus regarding this matter. If Charlie wanted Janus to let go of the past and move forward, he would have to leave the matter in Janus’s hands.Charlie could get the Ten Thousand Armies to escort Janus back to Hong Kong and make Shawn submit by force. Even so, Janus wouldn’t accept it. He would never get over it. Charlie had thought of using a different rhetoric to convince Janus to come to Oskia with him. Janus had an agreement with Shawn not to return to Hong Kong, but he never said he wouldn’t return to Oskia. Even if Janus couldn’t go to Hong Kong, he could still follow Charlie to Oskia.Charlie could use Janus’s help in the Wade Group. Shawn might eventually learn about Janus’s return, but with the Wade Group’s support and influence, he wouldn’t be able to question it.Despite these thoughts, Charlie held back and didn’t express his suggestion.He understood Janus well. With Janus’s c

    When Janus heard that Charlie was leaving, he had an extraordinarily complicated expression.Although he had only just met Charlie, due to the fact that Charlie’s father had been kind to him and because he also appreciated Charlie’s personality very much, Janus had developed very kind feelings toward Charlie.In particular, when Janus saw that Charlie was now strong and had achieved remarkable results, he felt sincerely gratified for Curtis. At a certain moment, he even had the idea of serving Charlie to repay Curtis’ kindness.However, after thinking about it again, he felt that he was just an illegal immigrant who had been selling roast goose in Oskiatown for more than ten years, whereas Charlie was already a top billionaire worth hundreds of billions of dollars. In this case, he was too embarrassed to speak up to offer his gratitude.After all, the difference in their strengths was too great, and even if Janus really had the passion to repay Charlie’s kindness, in the eyes of

    Charlie nodded slightly and instructed, “Get your subordinates to evacuate in an orderly manner. Don’t leave any clues for the New York police.”Porter hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I have already arranged for my subordinates to deal with this place thoroughly, and no clues will be left behind.”Charlie looked at the villa and said, “Why don’t you just spend some money to buy this villa that you’ve rented and keep it as Ten Thousand Armies’ stronghold in New York for future use.”“Okay!” Porter agreed immediately and said, “In that case, I will ask my subordinates to talk to the agent today and buy it as soon as possible.”After that, Porter spoke again, “Mr. Wade, I think that New York hasn’t been very peaceful recently. Do I need to leave some people here to help Miss Fox?”“No need.” Charlie waved his hand and said, “Kathleen Fox has just become the head of the Fox family. If I were to keep people by her side at this time, others would look at it and think that I’m de

    At this moment, Merlin had two things on his mind.The first was to hurry up and arrest the murderer who was responsible for the massacre in New York over the past two days, bringing him to justice. The other was to help his good buddy, Christian, find out what secrets Quinn was hiding.At this moment, he had Fox Group under full control, and it was only a matter of time before Rosalie was found. So, he was really looking forward to good news from his subordinate when he received this call.However, the voice on the other end of the phone said helplessly, “Chief, we did a whole play according to your instructions, but I didn’t expect that there would be no hard disk in the surveillance video recorder of that roast goose restaurant.”“No hard disk?!” Merlin felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, and he blurted out, “Why is there no hard disk?! Was it taken away in advance?”The subordinate replied, “The feedback from the colleague that I sent out reported that

    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
