The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5725
Tarlon was so frightened by Fleur’s gaze that he trembled all over, hastily dropping to his knees as he banged his forehead heavily on the ground, expressing intense fear and horror, “I deserve to die! I beg for your forgiveness, British Lord!”Fleur snorted coldly and scolded, “From now on, if you utter one more word, you can go back to Linix and guard our ancestral tomb!”The Griffins’ ancestral tomb was located in Linix.However, for the Griffin family members in the Qing Eliminating Society, if the British Lord ordered him to return to Linix to guard the ancestral tomb, it was tantamount to being exiled in ancient times. Once they went, they could only spend the rest of their lives there.Tarlon was extremely panicked. He slapped himself fiercely twice, continuously groveling and crying out, “I am guilty! I am guilty! Thank you for your forgiveness, British Lord!”Fleur ignored him and said lightly, “Go and make the arrangements as I’ve instructed!”“Understood, British Lord!

With that thought in mind, Fleur’s thoughts instantly wandered back to the year 1650, which was more than three hundred years ago.There was an inaccessible and forbidden place on Mount Tason. There were no residents at all within a hundred miles, and the reason was that there had been a bizarre miasma here since hundreds of years ago. The miasma lingered without dispersing, and anyone who entered would suffer from headaches, nausea, and disorientation. No matter which direction they went, they would eventually end up outside the miasma. Moreover, those who inhaled the miasma would suffer from severe headaches and nausea for several months, enduring extreme suffering. Some foolhardy individuals were even determined to explore the center of the miasma, and they ended up dying inside.As a result, over time, the people around the mountain kept their distance from this place and considered it an absolutely forbidden place.However, these people did not know that the center of this

So, the two followed Marcius into his stone chamber. Marcius pointed to two cushions in front of him and said to them, “Sit down.”When the two saw this, they sat with their legs crossed in front of him respectfully. Marcius then spoke up and said, “Although our fate is shallow, we are still master and disciples, after all. You both harbor the ambition to resist the Qing army, and as a fellow Oskian, I hope you can persevere in this cause and restore the glory of Oskia…”With that said, he took out two pills from his pocket and placed them on the stone table in front of the two. He then said calmly, “These two pills are the Eternal Pills that I mentioned to you before. Taking these pills can extend your lifespan to five hundred years. With these pills, I hope you can fulfill the cause of eliminating the Qing army.”Fleur was thrilled to hear that the pills in front of her were actually the Eternal Pill that could grant five hundred years of life. She thanked Marcius repeatedly, sa

“My destiny is not enough?!” When Fleur heard these words, she frowned and blurted out, “Master, what do you mean by 'my destiny is not enough'?”Marcius replied calmly, “You have not been on the path of cultivation long enough. There are many things that cultivators need to understand that you still do not comprehend. In the future, when you understand the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagrams, you will realize that people have various destinies, and destiny is the key to everything.”Fleur was surprised and asked, “Master, what is destiny?”Marcius explained, “Destiny is the foundation of a person. The specific destiny could be represented by heavenly stems, earthly branches, birds, or animals. Most people's destinies are represented by heavenly stems and earthly branches. Even the king was at best a polar fate going against fate, but in order to go against one’s destiny, one would need to have at least the fate of the tiger or python.”“Furthermore, there are higher destinies l

She knew that there was another meaning behind her master's words. He was implying that her character was not upright and righteous enough compared to Elijah, and there was still a big gap between them. This made her even more displeased.However, Elijah did not intend to accept the ring. He quickly refused, saying, “Master, you have already helped me too much. I cannot accept this ring…”Marcius smiled lightly and tossed the ring at Elijah. The ring suddenly disappeared in midair and appeared on Elijah’s finger the next second.Before Elijah could understand what had happened, Marcius spoke up and said, “Elijah, the ring has recognized you as its master. Keep it well. This ring might save your life if you encounter any unexpected events in the future.”After Marcius was done speaking, two cranes raised by him walked in. They stood on both sides of Marcius and constantly rubbed their necks against him as they made whimpering sounds.Marcius reached out his hand to stroke the two c

Fleur was also filled with anger, so she said coldly, “Elijah, you don't need to defend that old man anymore. Since he's already dead, you and I should take this Eternal Pill and improve our cultivation quickly. We should find the treasures he hid as soon as possible!”Elijah was extremely disappointed. “Fleur, from today onward, I am no longer your senior, and you are no longer my junior. From today onward, you are just a Griffin family member to me. I only acknowledge Flynn, and I have no more connection with anyone else at all!”Fleur immediately became anxious and blurted out, “Elijah, why are you so obtuse?! That old man lived for a thousand years, so why did he only give us pills to live for five hundred years? He's clearly holding something back from us and it’s something extremely significant!”Elijah waved his hand and said, “Forget it, Fleur. Our relationship ends today. I will stay here and mourn our master for three years, so you can leave on your own.”Fleur stomped he

Fleur was extremely shocked when Elijah disappeared in an instant.At first, she could not understand why Elijah had vanished into thin air. It took her a while to realize that the ring must have teleported Elijah to another place. This made her furious. She clenched her teeth angrily and exclaimed, “You old coot, you're so biased! You said that Elijah and I weren't qualified to inherit your legacy, but you gave him a treasure that can teleport instantly. Why don't I have one? Why not! Tell me! Tell me!!!”Only Fleur remained at the cave where her Master rested and where Elijah disappeared, and her hysterical screams echoed through the valley.After a long time, Fleur wiped the blood off her sword with an expressionless face, sheathed the sword back in her waist, and said coldly, “Elijah, from today onward, you and I are enemies!”With that said, she walked away without looking back and headed down the mountain. More than ten days later, when she rushed to Yorkshire Hill withou

Meanwhile, in the luxurious Champs Elys hot spring villa in Aurous Hill, the Ackers waited anxiously the entire day but did not see Charlie at all.They could not eat or drink all day, only wanting to see Charlie as soon as possible to confirm with their own eyes that he was indeed safe and sound.During dinner time, Albert and a few others arrived and entered the house. After coming in, Albert said to Christian, who came to open the door, “Mr. Christian, I have prepared some exquisite dishes for you all. These are all specially prepared by the chefs from The Heaven Springs. I personally supervised the ingredients and watched over them while they cooked. I asked them to make an additional small portion, and I've already tested it for poison. It's safe to eat!”Christian didn't expect that this middle-aged man, Albert, could be so meticulous in his work. He couldn't help but feel surprised and quickly expressed his gratitude, “Thank you so much for going through all this trouble, Mr.

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,

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

Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove
