However, Charlie knew very well that Vera was a girl who had seen and experienced this world. She definitely knew something about Reiki if she could possess the deceitful ring and be hunted down by the British Lord.What he needed to worry about the most was for Vera not to guess that he was the benefactor who had saved her in Northern Europe whom she had completely forgotten about just because of this pill.Therefore, Charlie said casually, “I got this pill through sheer luck from Antique Street. The pills are getting lesser each time I take one.”Vera guessed his intention as well and could not help but sigh as she said, “It would be great if you could buy some more of such a divine pill and keep it on hand in case of emergencies.”Charlie nodded. If he carried the Healing Pill with him, it was indeed true that he could save lives at critical moments. Jasmine had almost been killed in Japan, but she had survived because of the Healing Pill he had given her. As soon as he though
When Charlie saw that it was getting late, he stood up and said to the two of them, “Okay then, since Veron is already feeling better, I should leave first.”Claudia felt a little reluctant and could not help but ask, “Charlie, you’re already leaving after you’ve just arrived? Don’t you want to sit down for a bit while I get you a glass of water?”Charlie smiled faintly and said, “No need. It’s not appropriate for a grown man like me to stay too long in the girls’ dormitory. If I stay here a little longer, I speculate that the dormitory manager will come up and chase me away.”As he spoke, Charlie thought of something and warned, “Oh, by the way, the two of you will be starting orientation tomorrow. Orientation is very tough, so try not to leave the university if the two of you have nothing to do during this period of time.”Claudia could not understand the deep meaning behind Charlie’s words, so she subconsciously nodded and said, “Charlie, I’ve already informed Mrs. Lewis and Ste
Vera smiled and said, “You might as well have the word ‘admire’ written on your face yet you still have the nerve to say that I’m talking nonsense…”Claudia looked around nervously. When she saw that there was no one else around, she lowered her voice and said to Vera, “Veron, please don’t say such nonsense in the future. What can I do even if I admire Charlie? Charlie is already married, so I can only lament that I was born at the wrong time…”Vera nodded and said, “That is what it means to regret being born too late.”Vera sighed quietly with a complex expression as she spoke of this. She then adjusted her emotions and said with a smile, “But it doesn’t matter if he is married. You can become his mistress.”Claudia said shyly, “Why… Why is your nonsense getting more and more ridiculous?! Are you deliberately teasing me?”Vera said seriously, “I’m not teasing you. I am being sincere. I’m being really sincere! Since you like him, as long as he likes you too, what’s the difference
When Vera saw the result of the hexagram pointing at Charlie, she suddenly felt extremely nervous again.She was well aware of Charlie’s strength and knew that most people could not pose any threat to his safety. Therefore, the person who could put him in a dangerous situation must have superior strength. She could not help but secretly wonder, ‘Could it be that the other great earls from Qing Eliminating Society are coming to Aurous Hill? That must be it! Otherwise, Charlie wouldn’t have reminded me to pay attention to my safety!’As Vera thought of this, she subconsciously took out her cell phone and wanted to call Charlie. However, she did not know what to say after picking up her cell phone.After all, she had been playing dumb in front of Charlie, and she had finally managed to get him to let his guard down in front of her. If she took the initiative to warn him at this time, he would definitely be suspicious of her again. After considering it carefully, Vera still felt tha
This was a logical and reasonable explanation. Sometimes, one would need a hundred lies in order to explain a single lie. This was because it was difficult for liars to consistently remain logical, so their lies would always get discovered. However, Vera was an extremely smart girl, and she had already gone through her lies to ensure that it was consistent, logical, and closed-loop. Therefore, Charlie did not notice any abnormalities after listening to her. He felt that Vera should only be wanting to draw up a divination for him out of her good intentions. As he thought about this, he did not hide it anymore and told Vera his date of birth.When Vera heard Charlie’s date of birth, she could not help but feel relieved because his date of birth was the same as his birthday that she knew from the information she had of him.It seemed that Charlie really trusted her. Therefore, she said, “Charlie, I will help you to draw up a divination now, and I will let you know the result as so
In Charlie’s opinion, although the Qing Eliminating Society was probably targeting his grandparents’ family, since Vera said that he would be facing danger, it meant that he would have to go through a fierce battle. Charlie was not afraid. He knew that every day he lived was earned ever since the day he had survived at the age of eight.What he was most afraid of was in the event that his grandparents’ family and his wife, Claire, encountered danger at the same time. He would not be able to protect all of them on his own at the same time.As he thought of this, the first idea that came to his mind was to quickly find a way to let Claire leave Aurous Hill first.If Claire was not in Aurous Hill, Charlie would really be left without any worries, and he would be able to concentrate on protecting his grandparents’ family in Aurous Hill.However, Charlie could not come up with the best method to make Claire leave Aurous Hill without any doubts.The first idea that he had was to give
Kathleen quickly asked him, “Have… Have you been reunited with Lord Acker and Lady Acker?”Charlie sighed and said helplessly, “Not yet, but I’m afraid that I will not be able to hide my identity from them anymore if they are really in danger this time.”Kathleen asked nervously, “Mr. Wade, do you need any help? If necessary, I will gather all my subordinates to head to Aurous Hill as soon as possible!”Charlie said calmly, “No need. The current situation in Aurous Hill is extremely complicated, and it will be even more chaotic if there are even more people around. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be thinking of a way to let Claire leave Aurous Hill first.”With that said, Charlie asked Kathleen, “Miss Fox, can you help me think of a way to let Claire head to the United States and stay there for a period of time? The sooner, the better.”Kathleen agreed without hesitation and said, “No problem! Please rest assured, Mr. Wade, I will call Claire right away!”Charlie said, “Thank you, Miss Fox
Although Claire had a soft personality, she had always been committed to being a strong career woman. Charlie’s words moved her as well.How could a woman take her husband with her as a companion all the time when she went out to work? That would not only make her look incompetent, but it would make her husband look useless as well.In addition, Charlie’s last sentence was also on point. Claire and Kathleen were good friends. Claire could not bring her husband with her at all times when interacting with Kathleen either, otherwise, Kathleen would definitely find it strange. As Claire thought of this, she could only nod and say to Charlie apologetically, “Honey, if that’s the case, I’ll have to go by myself. You have to take care of yourself when I am not in Aurous Hill. Please help me take care of my parents as well.”“You can rest assured.” Charlie then asked with a smile, “By the way, Honey, you haven’t given a clear reply to Miss Fox yet, right?”Claire nodded and said, “I to
