Chapter 5419

Author: Lord Leaf
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

    Arlo looked at his brother with bloodshot eyes and begged in an extremely humble tone, “Silas, as your brother, I beg you to please bury my wife and son with me since I’ve taken good care of you all this while. I have never asked you for help before in this life, and this is my last request before my death…”Silas shook his head and said calmly, “Bro, if we were in Naples, I would have honored you and buried you with your family even if you did not say anything, but we are in Cyprus now, and I can’t take your corpse back with me on the plane. Either airport won’t allow a corpse to enter or exit the country.”Arlo was speechless and said, “Silas, in that case, you can cremate my corpse and take my ashes back with you to be buried with my family!”Silas refused expressionlessly, “That’s impossible. Where would I cremate your body in this situation? The Cyprus police will be here before your corpse is fully cremated.”Arlo asked him, “You can’t let me die alone in the wilderness in Cy

    Meanwhile, Mr. Chardon was still looking for clues about Vera in Eastcliff and was not ready to depart for Aurous Hill immediately. Mr. Zorro was still investigating New York but hadn’t made any progress. As for Miss Dijo, she had just settled down in the Far East.The three of them received a meeting notice from the British Lord at the same time, so the three of them entered the communication software immediately and waited for the British Lord to appear. Before the British Lord appeared, the three of them did not see Mr. Jothurn logging into the communication software, so Mr. Zorro joked, “If Mr. Jothurn doesn’t hurry up and connect to the communication software, I’m afraid that he will be punished after the British Lord logs in!”Mr. Chardon said casually, “I think Mr. Jothurn may be investigating relevant clues, so the British Lord will definitely understand if he is late if something really important is involved.”Ruby remained silent and did not seem to pay any attention to

    The three great earls were extremely horrified when they heard the British Lord’s words. When the British Lord mentioned that Mr. Jothurn was dead just now, they thought that he had run into a greater expert, but they came to a realization now that Mr. Jothurn had died from a close-defense missile. They initially thought that there were very few people left in this world who could hurt them so they could basically be tyrants, but they suddenly came to a realization today that their so-called cultivation level was nothing compared to heavy weapons. Mr. Zorro, who was in New York, asked nervously, “British Lord, who would use close-defense missiles to deal with Mr. Jothurn? Could it be the official Cyprus military?”The British Lord said in a low voice, “No. Mr. Jothurn’s body as well as the artillery shells and the shell casings from the close-defense missiles were all found within the range of the dead soldiers’ base in Cyprus. This means that the enemy had installed the close-def

    “Recruited them?!” Mr. Chardon said, “No matter what the circumstances are, they have to continuously receive the antidote given by the British Lord as long as they want to survive. What benefit will they stand to gain by joining the enemy? Once the antidote given to the Section Ambassador is exhausted, everyone is bound to die. Would these thousands of people be willing to die just to go against the Qing Eliminating Society?!”Mr. Zorro asked, “Could it be that the enemy has a way to eliminate the poison in their bodies?”The British Lord immediately said in a cold voice, “That’s absolutely impossible! There is no one in this world who can eliminate the poison in their bodies!” Mr. Chardon said, “This is so strange! Regardless of whether these people are truly loyal to the Qing Eliminating Society because of the antidote or because of their families, they would definitely go all out to fight for Qing Eliminating Society. If the other party really broke into the dead soldiers’ base

    After saying that, he added, “British Lord, since the other party is good at using close-defense missiles, I believe that they are most likely not martial artists, let alone experts who have mastered Reiki. They are most likely well-trained soldiers!”The British Lord murmured, “Soldiers? If this was really done by a soldier, whose soldier could it be?”Ruby said, “I don’t have a clue whose soldier it could be, but I think we can start from the clues related to the close-defense missile.”The British Lord hummed in response and said, “Keep talking.”Ruby continued, “I just looked up information on this weapon. Although this weapon is very lethal, it is not actually an advanced weapon and equipment but can only be regarded as the first generation of modern weapons with a history of several decades. The parameters of the current close-defense missiles are several times that. Therefore, through this, it can basically be determined that there is a high probability that the opponent doe

    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

    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

    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,
