The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5415
It was not surprising to the command center to find human DNA in a ruin of this size, but it was a little strange to find the artillery shell from a close-defense missile in a place like this. The discovery of the artillery shell meant that this place had been attacked by close-defense missiles.Judging from the range of the close-defense missiles which was less than four kilometers, even if the close-defense missiles were not inside the copper mine, it had to be not far from the copper mine when it fired. It was incomprehensible, regardless of whether the people in the copper mine used close-defense missiles to attack others, or whether people outside used the close-defense missiles to attack the copper mine.One of the adjutants then asked, “Could the copper mine have suffered a terrorist attack?!”This idea gained the approval of most people when it was raised. Over the recent years, terrorist attacks in the Middle East had never ceased. Those extremists had also caused a commo

Since Cyprus had mobilized a large number of personnel and equipment from multiple departments to come and support the scene at the moment, there were various people from different departments integrated at the scene. The military troops responsible for keeping guard were also focused on blocking the media reporters from approaching, so they did not realize that Arlo and the others had already bypassed their defense. When Arlo quietly came to the periphery of the copper mine, he was completely shocked by the sight in front of him. He never expected that this huge copper mine which had taken decades to be completed would now be a ruin that was more than ten meters deep!A large number of excavators were excavating at different points of the ruins at this time, and there were even several drilling machines on site. These drilling machines were constantly drilling underground, trying to bring up the soil components that were hundreds of meters deep underground to see if there were any

The few staff members around the commander were horrified as soon as he said this! Arlo, who was eavesdropping outside the tent, was even more appalled!When he heard this, he connected the events that happened before and immediately guessed the general context of the entire matter. They had long suspected that there was a possibility of a spy in Cyprus, but they had initially thought that the enemy was simply eyeing this place or that the Section Ambassador was colluding with the enemy. Arlo finally realized that this place had long fallen into the complete control of the enemy! If the enemy did not have complete control over this place, how could they have secretly prepared a killer weapon such as a close-defense missile?!The enemy might even have known that Brody was coming, so they had set up a death trap for him here in advance!Arlo combined the clues of Brody’s disappearance along with the human DNA found on the artillery shells at the scene and thus deduced that Brody w

It was indeed mind-boggling to find a military base that did not belong to one’s own country in one’s own country. However, the logic behind the commander’s judgment was extremely reasonable, and the fact that the other party could obtain a heavy weapon such as the close-defense missile proved that the other party was not an ordinary person but was definitely a militant who possessed strong practical combat experience.As a place where militants used close-defense missiles to defend the copper mine, it was very likely that this was indeed a military base. Even if it was not really a military base, this place had to contain huge and unknown secrets!The commander said somewhat nervously, “No, this is a matter of great importance! I must report this matter to the President immediately!” Soon, the commander contacted the President directly. After giving the President a detailed report, he hung up the phone respectfully and then instructed the few people beside him, “Gentleman, the p

Arlo instantly made up his mind never to report the actual situation here to the British Lord! At the very least, he could not tell the British Lord that there were artillery shells and shell casings from close-defense missiles found here. He also could not let the British Lord know that there were traces of a person’s DNA found on the artillery shells from the close-defense missiles and that the DNA probably belonged to Mr. Jothurn. After all, close-defense missiles were a sensitive matter, and the discovery of shell casings within the scope of the copper mine was sufficient to prove to the British Lord that the enemy had long been secretly controlling the dead soldiers’ base under his watch. In that case, it would be a serious dereliction of duty on his part.Coincidentally, the officials from Cyprus were currently planning to conceal the news about the close-defense missiles, and they wanted to fill in the entire collapsed area. This meant that everything that had happened here

Arlo quickly said, “British Lord, I’ve already entered the location of the copper mine to investigate, but the entire copper mine has collapsed from top to bottom, and even the part above the ground of the copper mine has collapsed into ruins. The entire site is completely destroyed, and there is only debris left, so I can’t find any clues at all…”The British Lord asked solemnly, “How could this happen?! Such a huge base is gone just like that?! What about the people inside, then? Have they all been killed?!”Arlo said in fear, “British Lord, I don’t know what happened to the people inside. I was originally hoping for the officials from Cyprus to conduct an official investigation, but they have given out an order for the entire site to be filled in. They are going to make a public announcement that the copper mine has reached the end of its service life and will be abandoned. The place is heavily guarded now, and I’m unable to do anything to continue investigating this matter!”The

When Silas heard his brother’s question, he turned to look at Arlo and then sneered as he said, “My dear brother, don’t blame me for being ruthless. I’m only acting on the British Lord’s order. To be honest with you, I am your alternative.”“What?!” Arlo was stunned. He had never thought that he actually had an alternative as one of the five Military Governor Officers and one of the British Lord’s most trusted confidants! Moreover, he could not imagine that his alternative was actually his brother!He blurted out, “When did you become my alternative?!”Silas smiled and said, “I was already your alternative before you became the Right Military Officer of the Right Military Governor Office. In fact, I knew that you were going to become the Right Military Officer before you even knew it.”“You b*stard!” Arlo yelled angrily, “You’re my brother and I watched you grow up! You were my alternative, but you never told me about it at all throughout all these years?!” Silas asked him, “Wh

Arlo was filled with resentment. He did not expect that this younger brother of his whom he had brought up, trained, and supported wholeheartedly since he was young, would betray him at a critical moment.He wanted to fight back and escape at this time but felt as if his whole body was completely anesthetized. He slumped on his seat and did not even have the strength to lift his arms, let alone escape at this moment. Even opening the car door was a pipe dream.Arlo had tears in his eyes as he said to Silas, “Silas, if I die, the British Lord will also train an alternative to be placed by your side in the future. You might even end up just like me one day, and I am serving as a warning to you!”Silas shook his head and said calmly, “That will never happen. I’m not the same as you. I will never betray the British Lord!”After saying that, Silas added, “If I do well, I will accept it if the British Lord rewards me, and if I do not do well, I will also accept it if the British Lord pun

"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

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6587
Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl
