At Kathleen’s orders, her men removed all the carpets and packed them in sealed bags for incineration. While the men were cleaning up the carpet, another wave of men rushed in with lightning equipment, building materials, cleaning supplies, and water pumps.After that, those specialized in mechanical and electric systems began to repair the damaged spotlights and fixed the lighting. The rest implemented the construction-use water barrier and styrofoam to surround the entire corridor, forming an impermeable pool of about ten centimeters.After that, they used the fire-fighter-use high-pressure water gun and powerful detergent to clean the blood in the corridor. The group washed out the blood stains in the corridor vigorously, and then pumped the dirty water into the washroom drain.Soon, the corridor lights were completely restored. The blood concentration in the pool of water was also visibly getting lighter. By then, the bloody stench in the corridor had mostly faded.Meanwhile,

Soon, Kathleen’s men brought the agitated Dorothy. Dorothy was nervous and tense. The appearance of the strange men who had taken over the entire VIP area without a sound took her by complete surprise. She did not know what they were doing, and who they were.Her staff had all disappeared without a trace. That gave her a bad feeling, too.However, her nervousness eased slightly the moment she saw Charlie. She asked him in a hurry, “Mr. Wade, what’s going on here? Are these your men?” Charlie glanced at Kathleen and said indifferently, “There are Miss Fox’s men. I requested their help.”Dorothy was puzzled. “Did something happen?” Charlie didn’t answer her question. Instead, he asked tentatively, “Is there anyone else who knows about the Acker family’s presence tonight?”“No,” Dorothy replied. “Only Quinn and I know. No one else is aware.”Then, she added nervously, “What’s wrong?! Something happened, didn’t it?!” Charlie said coldly, “There was an attack on the Acker famil

Dorothy added, “You’re suspecting a mole to be helping the enemy, but I doubt the mole is from our team. Our staff might know the Acker family’s whereabouts, but that was only after their arrival. Besides, the Acker family arrived here just not long ago.”Charlie thought of the blocked signal and asked, “Did any staff come to this floor during the day? Could they have snuck in a small shielding device?”Dorothy frowned. “We only paid attention to the stage and backstage in the morning. We didn’t pay much attention to the VIP area. I can’t be sure, but you can check the surveillance video of the VIP area.”Then she added, “As I said earlier, Quinn and I didn’t tell anyone about this. Even if someone came in the day to install the shielding device, they wouldn’t know which room to install it. Besides, there are more than twenty rooms here. Did they install it in every room?”Charlie walked into several rooms near the corridor with his phone and found that the signal in these rooms wa

At the same time, the Acker family that had survived the tragedy were sitting on the sofa in silence. The air in the room was tense. The younger generation and grandchildren were still recovering from the shock. The adults were also in a depressed mood.While Kathleen’s men were cleaning the crime scene outside the room, Charlie’s three uncles were busy analyzing the events with Keith. They even got into a heated argument during the discussion.They wanted to know what went wrong, so much that it almost cost the Acker family’s life.In the beginning, Kaeden suspected Charlie’s uncle-in-law, Lulu’s husband, to be the most suspicious person. Everyone was here tonight, but he was absent.This whole incident pertained to the whole family’s safety. While Kaeden was discussing his suspicions, he did not refrain from speaking in Lulu’s presence.Jaxson and his second brother Kaeden shared a similar personality. They frequently collaborated in work. Therefore, Jaxson firmly expressed his

Jarvis paid close attention to everyone in the room as he announced, “To ensure everyone’s safety, I would like to request everyone to hand me your personal belongings. We are going to perform a safety check for safety reasons.”Christian asked, “What do we need to turn in?”“Everything.” Jarvis stopped beating around the bush and cut to the case. He added with a serious look, “Please turn in all your personal belongings. For the men, please stand to the left. For the ladies, please stand to the right. Open your hands and put them on your chest. We will arrange for someone of the same gender to search you.”Keith frowned upon hearing that. “Sir, are you suspecting that this is an insider job? That the mole is among us?”Jarvis put his hand together and replied sternly, “Sir, I’m acting under orders. Everyone, please cooperate. Please forgive me if I have offended you.”Kaeden was annoyed. Disgruntled, he grumbled, “Sir, you’re suspecting us for no reason and demanded a search out

The sudden death of Adrienne caught everyone off guard. Her sixteen-year-old daughter nearly collapsed on the spot from sheer shock. She hugged her mother’s body and shook the latter desperately, crying, “Mom…? What’s wrong…? Don’t scare me…!” Jaxson, too, was on the verge of collapse. He wanted to step forward to investigate, but his second brother Kaeden stopped him. Jaxson looked back at Kaeden with a shocked look. Instantly, he growled, “Kaeden, why are you stopping me? Something’s happened to Adrienne!”Kaeden roared with a dark face, “Look at how she died! Do you remember how that assailant’s leader committed suicide by taking poison?!”“Suicide...” Jaxson was horrified. He blurted out in a tone of shock, “Y-You… Are you saying that Adrienne committed suicide by taking poison?”Kaeden pointed to the corpse and demanded coldly, “Is there any other possibilities other than suicide?!”Jarvis immediately rushed forward and picked up Charlie’s third aunt. He said to everyone,
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 4403
As he thought of that, Charlie asked Jarvis, “Mr. Yant, did you pay attention to the Acker family’s reaction? Can you tell me who she is?”Jarvis thought about it and said quickly, “There was a man, I think it was her husband. The younger man called the other man Kaeden. I heard her call the woman’s name. I think it was Adrienne.”When Charlie heard this, he immediately understood that this dead woman was his third aunt. After all, the only ones who were younger than Kaeden were his third uncle Jaxson and youngest aunt Lulu.The dead woman’s identity was initially Charlie’s biggest fear. He feared that the dead woman might be his youngest aunt Lulu. It would mean that the Acker family had been infiltrated from within, and that was an unacceptable situation. Therefore, he was slightly relieved to hear that the dead woman was his third aunt.However, that relief wasn’t much. After all, third aunt Adrienne had been married to his third uncle Jaxon for at least a decade. Why would his

Charlie understood Kathleen’s concern. His identity would certainly be the Acker family’s focus, especially after today’s crisis and contact.With the Acker family’s strength, it was only a matter of time before they learned about his identity. They simply had to follow the clues to investigate and start with either Quinn or Kathleen.The Acker family would definitely figure out who he was through their investigations, so Charlie must intimidate them from looking into him. His goal wasn’t to dampen the family’s ability to investigate him, rather, he wanted to scare them from daring to attempt it. With that in mind, he instructed Kathleen, “After you get the Ackers to safety, make sure you tell them… Oh, no. Make sure you warn them not to investigate my identity in any way. Tell them I’m a man of honor, and that I don’t like to be known. I don’t like anyone sniffing into my origins, either. Otherwise, the consequences they will face will be at their own risk.” Kathleen hesitated f

Though Jacob had nothing going for him, he had always had a huge ego, and he had never once admitted that he would lose to anyone in the presence of his wife and daughter.That was why both Elaine and Claire were shocked when he suddenly openly admitted that he was a piece of shit in front of them. They had never heard such a thing from him in the decades they had lived with him!In fact, Jacob himself was reluctant to insult himself like that.However, Charlie told him repeatedly that he absolutely must say it before he came here—because Charlie was dead sure that this line was the key to getting over this impasse, and it truly did put this crisis to rest.Even as Jacob finished, his heart was bleeding as he felt like he had just put his pride on the floor and trampled all over it until it was crushed to oblivion. Even though it was to clear any suspicion Elaine held toward him, to call himself a piece of shit—to say it himself that his beloved woman would think him beneath her,
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6424
Before Elaine knew it, she was reading the website she had just read again, and she did indeed find Yolden's name on it.With that, everything Charlie had said snapped together into a perfect chain of logic.Seeing the troubled look on her face, Charlie quickly added, "I'm not going to lie—Dad told me right away when he was told Matilda was getting married. We even discussed if we should tell you, and now you know why." "Matilda is doing so well for herself and got such an amazing husband, and they've picked Shangri-La's Sky Garden—something an average Joe could never hope to reach. And since she invited our whole family and not just us, Dad had to really think about it.""Eventually, he told me to hide it from you or it'd leave you devastated, so none of us said anything. We just didn't think you'd find that invitation and then end up having a big fight about it."Sighing, Charlie then continued, "But if you really want to go, we can go together for their wedding to put your min
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6423
Bitterness swelled in Elaine's heart as she really didn't think that Matilda was doing so well for herself.The fact that Matilda was worth millions alone made her far superior.At the same time, she was also rejoicing that she had never actually met Matilda. If Matilda asked how she was doing directly, how would she respond?In the end, Matilda was no Hannah Queen.Elaine would actually feel accomplished if she compared herself to Hannah.On the other hand, Matilda eclipsed Elaine in every way—she was more beautiful, kind, smart, and knowledgeable. Even her figure left Elaine dead in the water!It was as pointless as comparing a hen to a peacock!Whenever she thought of her, she could comfort herself that she had stolen her man even if she couldn't measure up in any way.But now, Jacob was completely insignificant to Matilda while Elaine still treated Jacob like a trophy.Even as a sense of inferiority seized her, Charlie sighed. "Come on, you should understand where Jacob is
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6422
"Exactly!"Charlie agreed, striking the metal while it was hot. "To be honest, the years Matilda spent in the States would be wasted if she was actually still interested!" "She's a Wall Street veteran who'd definitely have met so many successful men! Why would she be interested in a loser like Jacbo Wilson? It's not like she returned from the States after thirty years to help the poor, don't you agree?"Charlie then finished with a sigh. "The way I see it? You're the only one who'd be interested in him."Jacob heard that from behind the wall and was left absolutely fuming and humiliated.He was the only one who knew that Matilda had come back for him—even if she was worth millions now.However, he just didn't have the spine to divorce Elaine and get together with Matilda.He presumed that it was no rush and that he could just give Elaine the silent treatment—who knew, she might just give in and ask for a divorce herself, and then, he would have no issues getting together with M

"Her real lover?!" Elaine exclaimed in shock. "What are you talking about?"Charlie put on a serious face as she said, "Matilda came back to Oskia for her one true love, who is now her fiance. His name is Yolden Hart, a top economist who's now a lecturer at Aurous Hill University, who was invited all the way from the States. He's a professional manager and used to work in Wall Street, so he'd be qualified to be a CEO in any Fortune 500 company…""Professional manager?" Elaine pouted. "That still means he's a wage slave!"Charlie laughed. "Don't underestimate professional managers now. Just look at Apple Inc.'s CEO—the man earns around a hundred million USD per year, and that's over seven hundred million in Oskian dollars!"Elaine was left gaping, unable to imagine how a wage slave could earn so much.At the same time, Charlie continued, "To be fair, Professor Hart wouldn't earn that much, but 50 million per year is still no sweat for him. Do you get the amount of money we're talki

Elaine appeared taken aback, and she promptly demanded, "You've met Matilda too?!"It was only then that Claire realized she had let the cat out of the bag, and she suddenly didn't know what to say. "Oh… Uh… Mom… I, uh… didn't?"Nonetheless, Elaine was suddenly pressing her menacingly, "If you've never met her, how would you know she's a serious person?!"As Claire stayed silent, Elaine broke down in tears. "No… You're lying to me too! Aren't you?!"While Claire was left at a loss of how she should salvage this mess, Charlie suddenly entered and said, "Claire didn't—but I did.""What?!" Elaine was left staring at Charlie, stunned.Still, she soon demanded, "Y-You've met Matilda?! Did Jacob take you with him to see her?""Yes," Charlie admitted, nodding.Elaine snapped right then, and she bellowed, "Then why didn't you tell me?! To think that I've always done right by you, treating you like my own son, but you wouldn't tell me that Jacob is cheating on me! Y-You disappoint me!"

Jacob certainly left Charlie speechless—the man might get kicked out of the house, but he was more worried about his car.Sighing in exasperation, he told Jacob, "Look, if it fails, I won't be able to get you a nice place, let alone leave the Cullinan with you."Jacob blurted out, "But why—""Don't forget—I'm still living in this house even if you're gone!" Charlie explained, his expression dead serious. "If I let you have a nice place and the Cullinan, God knows how terrible a grudge your wife would hold against me. I need to have a sense of self-preservation too!""If I got you a rundown apartment, I could at least defend myself even if she gets upset about that. I mean, I can't let you sleep in the streets, can I? Claire and I would be guilty of abandoning our elders."Seeing the serious look on Charlie's face, Jacob breathed a long sigh as he clapped him on the shoulder, groaning mournfully, "Oh, I get it. I wouldn't want to upset Elaine if I were in your shoes too…"Charlie
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6418
Charlie sighed. "I told you it'd blow up, Dad, but you had to doubt me.""I wasn't doubting you," Jacob promptly defended himself. "I thought I might catch a lucky break—"Charlie cut him short, "Fair enough. Then, how are you going to handle this? I can try to stop Mom from going to that wedding and prevent her from getting in the hall even if she went, but what's going to happen to the both of you? Do you want a divorce or do you want to stay with her?"The light in Jacob's faded as he shrugged and sighed. "If I could divorce her, I would've—and I would be living happily with Matilda now. What company would I have if I did it now? Do you think Elaine would let me stay in Thompson First, with that attitude of hers?""In the end, I'd be chased out without a place to stay, and I can't suffer the humiliation of moving back with my mom and brother, can I? Hell, they might not even take me back!""So, that's a no?" Charlie pressed.Jacob smiled wryly. "At my age, even if I could, I w

Hearing that Elaine was threatening suicide, Claire exclaimed urgently, "Take me to her now!"The traffic police officer quickly nodded. "Come on!"As the traffic police officer quickly led Claire to Elaine, Charlie arrived just then and gave chase after leaving the luggage by the entrance.Stopping them, he asked, "Excuse me, officer—where's the gentleman who came with Madam Parker? May I see him?""And who are you?" The traffic police officer asked."I'm his son-in-law," Charlier replied. "I was thinking that while my wife talks to her mom, I can talk to my father-in-law, make peace, and take them both home.""Oh, that'd be great!"The traffic police officer exclaimed and quickly beckoned at a colleague, "Come over. Take this gentleman to Jacob Wilson!""Okay!" The other traffic police officer was also quite enthusiastic.Charlie entered the room where Jacob was first, immediately seeing a disfigured Jacob taking deep puffs of his cigarette.Another traffic police officer w
