Charlie had just accidentally asked about Marianne’s situation from Vera. However, after Marianne said it herself, he still pretended to be surprised and asked, “When did you come to work at Aurous University?”Marianne could only explain truthfully, “Well, Aurous University has an Outstanding Talent Introduction Program, so I tried applying for it. I was invited to come and attend the interview, and I passed the interview…”Marianne’s tone sounded very uneasy, like a child who had done something wrong and was discovered by her parents. Charlie knew that Marianne had most likely come to Aurous Hill because of him. However, at this time, he could only pretend to be dumbfounded, so he subconsciously said, “Although Aurous University is not as good as Hong Kong University, it is still a very good university…”Marianne nodded slightly, looked at Charlie, and stuttered as she said, “I… I think it’s pretty good as well…”Vera, who was aside, seemed to have just returned to her senses.
Charlie’s suspicion of Vera had basically been dispelled at this point.However, Charlie was still frowning even though he did believe that Vera did not know his true identity. Although he basically believed that Vera’s appearance in Aurous Hill was just a coincidence, he was still vaguely worried.The Qing Eliminating Society had been after Vera the last time Charlie had seen her.Now that she had come to Aurous Hill, if the Qing Eliminating Society found any clues about her, they would definitely learn from the last experience and lesson and send the most powerful martial arts experts to Aurous Hill to catch her.Furthermore, Charlie’s grandparents had also arrived in Aurous Hill, and their family was also an important target of the Qing Eliminating Society. In that case, the Qing Eliminating Society’s two major targets would be in Aurous Hill, and the probability that the Qing Eliminating Society would attack in Aurous Hill would be greatly increased. Now that the Qing Eli
When Marianne saw Charlie standing at the door in a daze, she could not help but ask, “Mr. Wade, what’s wrong?”Charlie regained his senses and smiled as he said, “Oh, I was preoccupied with something else. I’m sorry.”The waitress then came over and said, “Please come in.”Charlie nodded. When he followed the waiter in, he specially looked at the small bell hanging on the sliding door and was instantly inspired. If the Qing Eliminating Society were to really send a great earl to Aurous Hill in the future, he had to have a ‘bell’ that could warn him in advance.After sitting down with Marianne, Charlie took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Zachary, who sold antiques at Antique Street, asking Zachary to meet him at Champs Elys hot spring villa at noon tomorrow. Zachary had started working as an inept advisor for Albert some time ago, and he did a good job. Albert’s industries and people were reorganized and restructured, which increased his income and management gre
After saying that, Marianne explained, “Madam Marilyn is Mr. Carrick’s housekeeper in Aurous Hill. Veron lives in Scarlet Pinnacle Manor, which is Mr. Carrick’s place, and Madam Marilyn takes care of her.”Charlie was slightly startled when he heard this and suddenly realized that the reason why Vera had a headache was probably because he had placed too much Reiki into her brain at noon and done too much psychological hints on her. The reason why Charlie had used so much Reiki was because he really felt that it was strange when he saw her, and he was afraid that there would be something strange about her. After thinking about it now, if he transferred too much Reiki to an eighteen-year-old girl’s brain, it would definitely cause great damage to her body. Therefore, Vera’s headache and discomfort would probably last for a while. Charlie suddenly felt a little ashamed. He felt that he had overreacted and acted a little too harshly when he had seen Vera.Fortunately, this situatio
Charlie arrived at Champs Elys hot spring villa at noon the next day.Zachary arrived an hour in advance to wait for Charlie. When he saw Charlie, he said respectfully, “Master Wade, what are your orders for me?”Charlie smiled faintly and asked him, “Zachary, did you bring the things that I asked you to bring?”Zachary nodded repeatedly, took out a bag from the car, and said to Charlie, “Master Wade, I’ve brought everything you asked for!” Charlie responded, “Great! Let’s go in and talk.”Charlie brought Zachary to the living room in the villa. Zachary then opened up the suitcase impatiently and took out several pieces of wood that were all as black as charcoal but were of different sizes and thickness.As he took the pieces of wood out, he introduced to Charlie, “You said that you wanted Thunderstrike Wood. These are all the reliable Thunderstrike Wood that I could find from yesterday till now. Nine and a half out of ten of the Thunderstrike Wood sold in our market are fakes t
Charlie said, “Zachary, since you work for Albert now, you work for me as well, so I won’t hide anything from you. I want a jade ring that has been unearthed from a new tomb because I want to trick people. It will probably be very difficult for me to trick someone with a jade ring that has been mined from a certified tomb.”Zachary was confused when he heard this and subconsciously said, “Master Wade, why do you want to disguise a jade ring that has been unearthed from a new tomb as a jade ring that was unearthed from a certified tomb to deceive people? These days, things such as tomb robbing are being investigated closely, and antique dealers like myself don’t dare to ask for things that are unearthed from new tombs out of fear of getting into trouble and facing lawsuits. It’s a different matter if it’s something mined from a certified tomb. After all, the tomb is already very old, so even if was dug out thirty or forty years ago, it’s legal now.”Charlie waved his hand and said, “D
Charlie said calmly, “No need. Go to Antique Street and find two street vendors who are smart and can support you fully. Give one of the jade rings to each of them and ask them to put on the jade rings. Ask one of them to go to the arrival hall at the airport and the other to go to the exit of the high-speed railway station, and make them hold up signs as if they are waiting to pick someone up. It doesn’t matter who they are picking up, and they can simply write some random name on the sign.”Zachary was surprised and asked, “Master Wade, who are you going to pick up? You probably won’t be able to pick anyone up if you just write a random name, right?”Charlie said indifferently, “I don’t want to pick anyone up. I want to wait for someone!” After that, Charlie said very seriously, “Zachary, you have to listen to everything I say next word for word! If you handle this matter well, I promise to give you glory and wealth in the future!”As soon as Zachary heard this, he sat upright i
The first was the British Lord from the Qing Eliminating Society, and the other four were the four great earls from the Qing Eliminating Society.However, the British Lord would not come to Aurous Hill personally, and one of the four great earls was dead. Therefore, there were only three people left that Charlie was targeting, and that was the remaining three great earls from the Qing Eliminating Society. At present, Charlie’s grandparents as well as Vera were in Aurous Hill, and the chances of the four great earls from the Qing Eliminating Society appearing in Aurous Hill had increased greatly. After doing this, Charlie was confident that he would receive an early warning as soon as any of the great earls arrived in Aurous Hill. The airport and the railway station were the two gates of Aurous Hill. It was impossible for any of the great earls to drive here from surrounding cities, so the most likely way would be for them to take a plane or the high-speed train.Charlie asked Z
