As she spoke, Vera blushed slightly and said, “Besides, you’re not even clothed. If word about this gets out, it wouldn't bother me, but how would you explain things to your wife? Furthermore, Mr. Raven and the others live downstairs. If a helicopter flies in at night and several men come to my room, and another man without clothes is taken away, what would they think of me, then?”Charlie nodded and said helplessly, “You’re right about all that, but how are we going to get there now?”Vera said, “Wait a moment, Young Master. I'll make the necessary arrangements.”After saying this, Vera immediately stood up, went downstairs, and changed into a simple T-shirt and a pair of jeans.She made a phone call, and twenty minutes later, a two-seater light helicopter swiftly flew above the courtyard, then slowly landed in the yard.Once the pilot got out of the helicopter, he left through the courtyard gate without looking back.After he left, Vera came to the courtyard, took down a new se
As Charlie flew with Vera toward Champs Elys hot spring villa, Merlin, Isaac, Albert, and others heaved a sigh of relief, stopped their search, and headed back to Champs Elys hot spring villa ahead of time.Merlin knew that the Ackers were worried about Charlie’s safety, so he hurried back to the villa as soon as he got off the plane. The Acker family members were anxiously waiting in the living room, hoping that Merlin would bring back good news. After all, Charlie was of great significance to the Ackers and had been a great concern for them for twenty years. Furthermore, Charlie’s other identity was actually the benefactor who once saved the Ackers, which further elevated Charlie’s status in the eyes of the Acker family members. When they saw Merlin walking in briskly, the Acker family members instantly stood up and looked at him eagerly. Lady Acker subconsciously walked toward him and murmured, “Merlin, have you found Charlie’s whereabouts?”Merlin smiled and said, “Lady Acker
Lord Acker chuckled and said, “You deserved to get kicked out. Charlie already said that the pill must be taken directly on the spot, but you challenged his rules, so isn’t it natural for him to kick you out?” Christian was depressed and said, “Dad, who was I challenging Charlie’s rules for?”Kaeden, who was aside, patted Christian’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Come on, Christian. Although you were kicked out of the auction by Charlie, we should all be grateful for that incident. If it weren't for you, the Ackers might not have caught Charlie’s attention so soon. It's a good thing, and our whole family benefitted from it!”Christian sighed and said sincerely, “Oh, it’s not a big deal for me to get kicked out by my nephew. I just didn’t expect that my nephew would be so capable and end up being our benefactor. I just feel a little embarrassed when I think back to my words and behavior back at the auction.” At this moment, the sound of a helicopter could be heard outside the v
Vera subconsciously said, “That’s different…”Charlie asked her, “How is it different? You can accept it when you call me Charlie, but you can't accept it now that you’re addressing me as ‘Young Master’?”Vera replied awkwardly, “I… I didn't mean that… I just feel that these pills are too precious. The reason I accepted the remaining part of the pill before this was because I was afraid that you would encounter danger one day. In that case, I could keep the remaining part of the pill for emergency use. Now that you’re safe and sound, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to accept any pills from you anymore, Young Master.”Charlie said unequivocally, “Then you'd better adjust your perspective as soon as possible and tell yourself that there's nothing inappropriate about it.”With that said, Charlie stuffed the pill into her hand directly. After that, he did not wait for her response and took out another Rejuvenating Pill, handed it to her again, and said, “This is a Rejuvenating Pill.
As Vera piloted the light helicopter into the air again, Charlie took the opportunity to take the Regeneration Pill. Meanwhile, thousands of miles away at the headquarters of the Qing Eliminating Society, Fleur paced anxiously in her room. She was already four hundred years old this year, but she looked like she was only in her thirties. Although she was charming and spirited, her current state of agitation and restlessness caused her ruthlessness to be etched on her face, making anyone who looked at her feel intimidated. The last time Fleur felt this restless was when she was chased into the mountains by the Qing army for the first time together with Elijah. Over the years, although she hadn't found Vera, it was, after all, a cat-and-mouse game that had lasted for three hundred years. She had always played the role of the cat, so she did not feel so anxious even when she could not find Vera. However, the source of her anxiety and uneasiness at this moment was that her two great
Fleur also felt somewhat worried at this moment as she muttered to herself, “Mr. Chardon’s strength is already remarkable, and he’s already even more powerful with the magical instrument I gave him. If he really sacrificed himself in the explosion, then the person who forced him to do so must be much stronger than him.”As she spoke, Fleur couldn't help but exclaim, “I never expected that there would be such a skilled master in Aurous Hill. Based on my understanding of the Ackers, they couldn't possibly have any contact with someone this powerful. So, who exactly is this person?”Tarlon couldn't help but say, “British Lord, I believe that person should be acquainted with the Ackers. Otherwise, why would he save them at the critical moment?”Fleur shook her head with a gloomy expression and said, “I don't know either. If Mr. Chardon really perished in the explosion, his opponent must be a cultivator with even greater strength. However, I've had people secretly monitoring the Ackers f
After pausing for a moment, Tarlon continued, “Moreover, in the recent period of time, they have been gaining one victory after another with unstoppable momentum. If we don't stop them now, I’m afraid there might be even more trouble in the future! British Lord, this crisis is unprecedented, so you can't hesitate anymore!”Fleur fell into a momentary silence.Tarlon’s concerns added to her anxiety and unease. She knew that what Tarlon said made sense. If they allowed the other side to continue growing in secret, it would probably pose a huge threat to her in the future!With this in mind, she clenched her teeth and said, “Inform the Central Governor Office immediately and get them to send the best scouts on a plane to Aurous Hill immediately to investigate this matter!”“If Mr. Chardon really perished in the explosion, the tremendous force will inevitably leave traces of the explosion within a radius of several hundred meters. After dawn tomorrow, as long as they fly over Willow Ma
The cell phone was completely shattered and deformed, and even the battery bulged due to the deformation. When she saw this, she finally heaved a sigh of relief, realizing that the cell phone couldn't possibly continue to relay her position to the British Lord.After about ten minutes, Charlie finally recovered thanks to the effects of the Regeneration Pill. He stretched his neck, lazily stretching his body in the narrow cabin, looking nothing like a person who had just been heavily injured and weak.Vera, who was aside, exclaimed in surprise, “Young Master, you've already recovered?!”Charlie nodded slightly and said, “My body has recovered, but I haven’t recovered my Reiki yet.”As he spoke, he took out two Cultivating Pills and popped them into his mouth. As soon as the pills entered his stomach, they turned into pure Reiki, flowing through his repaired meridians and elixir field, spreading throughout his body.Charlie felt the surging Reiki returning, immediately experiencing
