Dorothy laughed heartily and said, “Look at what you’re saying, Mr. Wade. I, Dorothy Chan, have always been very polite to you.”Charlie teased, “Didn’t you point fingers at me and call me a heartless man.”Dorothy had a serious expression on her face as she said, “No, no. Adults must know how to settle different matters separately, one thing at a time. You indeed act like a heartless man when dealing with Quinn’s problems, but you are still very powerful in other aspects.”Having said that, Dorothy ignored the depressed expression on Charlie’s face and pointed to the huge performance venue behind her as she smiled and said, “Look! This is the best performance venue in New York. Previously, we were still worried that we might not have the chance to use it after being set up by the Fox family, but who would have thought that this venue would become ours directly now...”As she spoke of this, she had an expression full of admiration as she said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, you’re truly inc
Originally, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Charlie had even planned not to come for Quinn’s first concert in New York tomorrow. However, he knew very well that if he really did not come, not only would Quinn be disappointed, but his wife, Claire, would definitely have a lot of regrets.Therefore, after inspecting the venue, he was suddenly relieved,When the time came, he would be able to take his wife to watch Quinn’s concert in the VIP room, which would also help him to greatly avoid the possibility of exposure. Dorothy also knew some things about Charlie and so, when she heard him saying that he wanted a private room, she didn’t say much and quickly agreed as she said, “No problem. I’ll bring you up to have a look.”Charlie nodded and followed Dorothy to the box where she pushed the door open and then introduced to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, the VIP room at this venue is very large. It is generally more than fifty square meters, and there is also a separate washroom inside.
After all, the equipment used by the members of the special operations team was the most advanced. They were using life detectors, which meant that even reinforced steel and concrete would not cause any impact on it. It was also very difficult for humans to artificially interfere with it. So, even if Rosalie had strong abilities, she would not be able to escape from this equipment.In addition, there were dozens of well-trained police dogs at the scene. Even if people were hiding across several walls, the police dogs would also be aware of it.Therefore, this two-pronged approach could ignore basically almost all interferences. As long as Rosalie was still at Fox Group’s headquarters, she would definitely be discovered.However, Rosalie was still not found even with such advanced detection capabilities.This made Merlin feel extremely surprised. At the same time, he couldn’t help but think of a question. ‘Did Rosalie escape earlier in advance?’ However, he felt that it was unlike
Merlin had already been manipulated by the gambler’s mentality at this time, and he vowed to take this opportunity to take a chance.Therefore, when he heard that the police commissioner wanted him to pull the men out, he immediately retorted angrily, “If we pull our men out now, we will be forfeiting our chances of success completely!”The police commissioner asked, “Didn’t you search everything thoroughly? How much longer do you want to search?! You will not be able to find anyone even if I gave you a month to demolish Fox Group’s headquarters building bit by bit!”Merlin blurted out, “Commissioner, ask the special operations team to search again. I don’t think that she could have possibly escaped. Perhaps she is hiding somewhere in a corner of Fox Group!”The police commissioner said angrily, “Merlin, I know that it’s already close to your retirement and you must be feeling very unconvinced to have encountered such a case, but let me tell you now that this matter has already cau
However, the police commissioner had a serious expression on his face as he said, “Merlin, when something big happens that cannot be solved, someone always has to take the blame for it. You have been working in the New York Police Department for so many years, and it is impossible that you do not understand this. I don’t want you to take the blame for this either, but if you continue to remain stubborn, I can only apologize to you in advance, then!”Merlin gritted his teeth and looked at the other party. Even though he was filled with hatred and resentment in his heart, he knew that the police commissioner was telling the truth.In truth, the New York Police Department was actually still very protective of their own people most of the time, and the higher management would definitely find a way to solve problems for the sake of the department’s overall image.However, the New York Police Department hadn’t always been able to handle everything. Over the years, the New York Police De
The conversation with the police commissioner only lasted for a short ten minutes, but Merlin felt as if he had suddenly aged ten years.He was well aware of the mayor’s intention for him to retire early, and even if he had not pushed the blame onto him directly, in the eyes of the public, he would still be the one taking the fall for it.Letting Merlin retire early was a punishment for him.When the time came, they would then exaggerate Merlin’s contribution to New York and subtly relay the message to the people that Merlin was considered someone who had dedicated his life and career to the New York citizens for so many years even though he had not done a good job this time. It could also be counted as hard work and now, Merlin already knew that he was wrong, and he had taken the initiative to request for an early retirement. So, everyone should see how hard he had worked for New York for most of his life and not be too hard on him.Generally speaking, people usually accepted this
Christian sighed and spoke up as he said, “In truth, you shouldn’t have investigated those murderers...”Merlin said helplessly, “What’s done is already done. It’s too late to talk about it now. Furthermore, my character will not allow me to turn a blind eye to this kind of crime that uses violence against crime.”Christian hummed and asked him, “So, what are your next plans?”Merlin said, “I’m going back to the police station to hand over my work now, and I will start my retirement officially tomorrow.”Having said that, he remembered something and said, “Is your father doing better now? Why don’t I go over to Los Angeles to see him? He was really seriously ill, and it’s really unjustified if I do not go to see him.”Christian said, “You don’t have to come to Los Angeles anymore. My mother wants to go to New York to watch Miss Golding’s concert, and she requires that all of us children will also have to be present. My father was convinced by her, and we will be going together at
The next day happened to be a Saturday.Claire had already set her heart on going to New York to see the concert and so, she proposed to Charlie that she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get to New York earlier as she wanted to take a stroll around New York, go to the concert at night, and then stay in New York for the night before strolling around New York for another day again tomorrow before they came back on Sunday night.Charlie also felt that his wife had been working too hard in her classes and so, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to let his wife relax and unwind.Therefore, Charlie agreed to Claire’s proposal without any hesitation and asked someone to help him book a suite at Shangri-La in New York. After the both of them had had breakfast, they drove to New York.According to Claire’s previous knowledge of New York, Charlie took her to Times Square first and then to see the famous Statue of Liberty. While the two of them were touring around,
