“No.” Lucian shook his head and said, “The organization does not use the internet. Instead, it uses its own satellite communication network, and it’s not ordinary civilian communication. It is a military communication satellite that was bought from senior Soviet officials through special channels when the Soviet Union collapsed.”“Military communication satellite?” Charlie asked in shock, “Can this be bought?”Lucian explained, “Under normal circumstances, no one would be able to buy military communication satellites no matter how rich an individual or company is. However, it was a special period, and the entire Soviet defense system was in chaos. The disintegration of the distribution between these countries was also muddled, and there were a lot of bad debts. At the time, a large part of Ukraine’s heavy weapons were sold. Even the Tu-160 bomber and nuclear bombs were sold, let alone the satellites in the sky. Back then, no one would notice that a few satellites were missing, and as

Charlie’s pupils constricted when he thought of this. He immediately asked Lucian, “What happened twenty years ago that would make your British Lord execute thousands of people directly?!”Lucian shook his head blankly. “I don’t know the specific reason... I only know that the British Lord was furious at their failure at the time, so he killed them...”Charlie raised his brows and asked coldly, “Do you know where they met their defeat, then?”Lucian shook his head and said, “I don’t know either.”Charlie thought of what Lucian had mentioned about the five military governor offices earlier and how the one responsible for Asian affairs within the Qing Eliminating Society was the Central Military Governor Office. So, he asked him, “Which military governor’s office was the one that experienced defeat? Was it the Central Military Governor Office?”Lucian shook his head and said, “I don’t know, but I’m certain that it’s not the Right Military Governor Office.”With that said, Lucian ad

Charlie was slightly startled and asked with a frown, “What other industries are there in this closed loop of yours besides the copper refinery in Turkey and the copper mine in Cyprus?”“Many.” Lucian replied, “There are natural gas companies, large farms, and shipyards in Turkey. In addition, there are also some garment and stone processing factories. Basically, all walks of life are involved, and the overall market value is about eighty billion US dollars or so.”In Turkey, an organization with a total market value of eighty billion US dollars could already be called a super business empire, and this was only the industry under the responsibility of a deputy governor under one of the five military governor offices under the Qing Eliminating Society. If any deputy governor was assigned to the economically developed Western Europe, the closed loop he was in charge of may have a market value of more than hundreds of billions of US dollars. This way, the asset strength of a Right M

As he said that, Lucian then added, “However, they receive better treatment compared to that of the Armed Calvary Guards. Firstly, they don’t need to practice martial arts hard, and secondly, they do not need to take the antidote weekly but they only need to take it once every six months. If they study hard and have real talents, they will be able to live in society as white-collar elites or even well-known entrepreneurs after taking over the company in the future, so their living conditions are definitely much better compared to that of the Armed Calvary Guards.”When Charlie heard this, he could not help but come to a realization.From this point of view, his aunt-in-law as well as her family members should not be regarded as high-end members of the Qing Eliminating Society. They were probably descendants of the Armed Calvary Guards, but they had the opportunity to live a normal life in real society.As Charlie thought of this, he asked Lucian, “During your years in the Qing Elimi

At this time, Charlie could not help but think of his own third aunt-in-law whom he did not know.In Charlie’s mind, he could not help but rely on the clues provided by Lucian and his own imagination to outline the woman’s tragic life.During her teenage years as well as her youth, it was likely that she had studied hard in order to change her whole family’s fate.Her father may have experienced the tragedy of being a dead soldier firsthand, so he must have instilled the belief to study hard to save the whole family in her since she was very young.She must have lived up to expectations and was admitted to a top university.At this time, the Qing Eliminating Society had given her the difficult and significant task of approaching his uncle, Jaxson, because of her excellent academic performance and outstanding external conditions. Merlin had once told Charlie about the process of how his aunt-in-law had gotten acquainted with his uncle.Back then, his uncle was in the second year

Charlie frowned and asked, “Does your assistant usually meet your needs in that area?”Lucian replied, “He wanted to join the Hubbert Battalion, but to join the Hubbert Battalion, he needed a recommendation from someone who had been trained in the Hubbert Battalion. That’s why I used that as a condition to ask him to satisfy my...”Charlie reached out a hand to interrupt him. “Okay, you don’t need to say anything else.”Lucian shut his mouth immediately.Charlie then asked again, “Is there any way for you to let me sneak into the copper mine with you?”Lucian said without hesitation, “That would be simple. You’d just need to wrap yourself up in a black robe with me.”“A black robe?”“Yes.” Lucian stood up, took off two black robes from the hanger behind the door, and said to Charlie, “Because I am a special envoy, only my superiors and my assistant can see my true face. I’m always wrapped in a robe so that no one can see any of my features.”Charlie nodded and asked again, “Has

The Reiki in the antidote was minimal, which allowed Charlie to conclude that the person who had refined the pill must be proficient in Reiki, but Charlie was unable to guess the other party’s cultivation through the pill.After all, the potency of this antidote was too low. Charlie felt that its greatest use was not to suppress the poison in the body of the person taking the antidote, but it seemed to be just to send a signal for the poison in the body not to rush the attack first for the time being. As Charlie looked at these antidotes, he could not help but speculate that if the Qing Eliminating Society had ten bases for dead soldiers in the whole world, there would be at least tens of thousands of dead soldiers, their families, and also members of the Armed Calvary Guards. In addition, there were ‘scholars’, ‘guides’, ‘special envoys’, ‘governors’, ‘Hubbert Battalion’, ‘Far East International Express’, and various other supporting personnel. It was roughly estimated that the

Just then, the ship emitted an ear-splitting whistle, and the speed of the ship also slowed down a lot at the same time, which made Charlie realize that the ship was about to dock.So, he threw the antidotes brought by Lucian back into the closet immediately, wrapped one of the black robes around himself, and said to Lucian, “I will disguise myself as your assistant and go to the copper mine with you. You will hand the antidotes over this time, the same way you usually do.”Lucian nodded without hesitation, “Understood!”After that, he also took a black robe, put it on skillfully, and covered his head completely with the huge hood.Charlie followed suit and covered his head with the hood of the black robe.He found that the hood of the black robe was very wide and the fabric was light. Even if the hood covered the face completely, it would not hinder one’s sight.Subsequently, Charlie and Lucian came to the door. Charlie looked at the martial artist who was standing still like a

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…

Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T

Then, Matilda suggested, "How about this—I'll ask him before deciding." "I'll pass on inviting the rest of my former classmates too. They're too vain and love comparing, so I'd rather not have anything to do with that. Also, there are our Korean friends who have it together, and they were telling us to invite them if we were going to get married. We have to keep our promise, right?""Yeah—then, it's basically decided. Aside from Charlie, we shall invite our colleagues and Korean friends while we wait for an answer from Jacob."Yolden nodded and said, "Now, I'll talk about the honeymoon—cut me short if you have a different opinion."Matilda nodded, resting her chin on her hands and smiling. "Shoot. I'm all ears."Feeling a little embarrassed by Matilda's glowing stare, Yolden took a sip of his ice water before continuing, "My idea is to head to the States for our honeymoon after the wedding…"He trailed off, staring at Matilda and waiting for a response.However, she was merely

"Oh, Jacob…?"Matilda chuckled awkwardly. "Just today, he offered to buy me dinner, but I said I didn't have the time, and I also told him about our wedding… So, we should invite him since he's aware of it.""Jacob offered to buy you dinner?" Yolden exclaimed in surprise. "Did he say why?""Nope," Matilda shrugged, smiling. "Probably just dinner between old classmates."However, she was actually smart enough to guess Jacob's intention even though Jacob was inviting her somewhere near campus. That was why she had also mentioned she was marrying Yolden while turning down Jacob, all so that he would give up on her.After she had managed to get over their past fling completely, she didn't want to give Jacob false hopes before she walked down the aisle.In the same regard, she didn't want to worry Yolden, and therefore, had deliberately discouraged Jacob.Be that as it may, Yolden was smart too.He knew about Matilda and Jacob's past and that her son, Paul's full name was Paul Jam
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6381
Before Charlie had arrived, Jacob was still furious that Matilda would soon marry Yolden.After Charlie came, however, he was instead worried that Matilda would send him a wedding invitation.Meanwhile, Matilda and Yolden were discussing their list of guests.They had different social circles, but most of their friends were Stateside, and they only had some distant relatives in this country.Still, they had colleagues in Aurous Hill. Matilda had classmates too, but she was out of touch with them aside from Jacob, whom she often met.Still, as they discussed who should be invited, Matilda first suggested, "Let's go through everyone. First, our Stateside friends… I don't think we should tell them at all since it's a long journey, and inviting them would seem tactless. What do you think?"Yolden nodded, smiling, "I was just thinking the same thing. We're close with our Stateside friends and always keep in touch, but inviting them to our wedding might be a stretch. We'd just hit a wa

With that being said, once Matilda was thrown in the mix, Elaine would suddenly become an African honey badger, with every bit of black air force energy that was implied.As such, if Jacob had managed to be brave and take that one step back then, Charlie would have tried to help, stopping Elaine from harassing Jacob or Matilda.However, the reality was that Jacob had to bungle the chance when Matilda offered it to him.That was why the best option was for Jacob to understand that he couldn't get together with Matilda now so that he would feel much better.And since he had always been a coward, Charlie's slight intimidation cleared his head considerably.He then sighed, "Well, that's just life—you don't always get what you want, and you should never try to claim what you couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to choose Matilda over thirty years ago, so not being together now only makes sense.""Now, I can only pray that Elaine never finds out… or at least that things don't get out of h

Then, Jacob quickly pressed, "Dear boy, maybe you could stay a few days instead of taking more jobs. At least you could be there to stop my wife if she snaps.""Sure," Charlie chuckled, cheerfully agreeing to it. "Don't worry—Claire's returning in a couple of days too, and you'll be fine with us around. You're cheating in your mind, anyway…"Pausing, he then added a reminder, "But if she's really furious, just bear with her beatings and clawings. Live and let live, as they say."That left Jacob sulking, however. "What the hell! If I knew this would happen, I should have just taken her to court and divorced her openly! That way, I'd definitely make things work with Matilda. Yolden wouldn't even stand a chance!"Charlie had to keep a straight face. "Now, you're not quite right there—don't you know what would happen to your wife if you took this to court?"Jacob snorted coolly. "Elaine would just snap at me, hit me, and make sure I don't get a cent in the divorce. That's no big deal—
