Chapter 4699

Penulis: Lord Leaf
This was Charlie’s intention.

After all, Elaine was not just Elaine but also Charlie’s mother-in-law. Even if this matter was finally resolved in the end, Charlie did not want others to know that his mother-in-law had been involved in such a ridiculous and absurd scam.

On one hand, he could not afford to lose this person, and on the other hand, if this matter were to end up becoming a big deal and Elaine was known at an international level, as her son-in-law, people might also end up investigating him.

Therefore, Charlie’s request was to solve this problem in a low-profile manner instead of making too much action.

The reason why Jakel had said that was also to attack instead of defending.

People like Jakel knew that he could never let his opponent know of his true demands.

Once his opponent found out that he did not want this matter to be exposed, the opponent would definitely use this matter to test his bottom line.

So, instead of that, it would be better for him to countera

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6899

    The first few days following the amputation had been the worst. A person who used to have all limbs intact suddenly had to live without one, so the psychological blow would be monumental.The same went for Arlo. For men like him, the phase up to acceptance of their own disability was grueling, and they almost always fell into a period of slump..Arlo had always been a proud man, too, and having become the governor of the Right Military Governor's Office, he was a man driven with great ambition. That he had suddenly become disabled was like having a bucket of cold water splashed right in his face.But even as he was left fuming and moping, there was a knock on the door.Arlo checked the time and realized that Callum had been gone for over an hour. Presuming that his consul had returned from his task, he quickly said, "Come in. The door's not locked."As the door was gently opened from the outside, he asked, "Did you buy it? Let me try it out."To be honest, he wasn't holding o

    Losing the Moroccan garrison was already a criminal dereliction of duty, and Penny's disappearance only made things worse.Even if Fleur had only demanded that the Three Elders cut off his left hand, Arlo feared it was just the start. If Lady Griffin still felt any lingering grievances, she would just eventually take his head when this crisis is over.That was why he had volunteered to go to Morocco—to demonstrate his willingness to serve Lady Griffin by going to the most dangerous place. By doing so, he could somewhat demonstrate his loyalty to the Lord and at least restore some impression of himself.He was more or less risking his own neck, but he would rather do something than wait for the inevitable in Nigeria. Death at the hands of the enemy would certainly be preferable to execution, anyway, as he would further prove his loyalty to the Qing Eliminating Society and Lady Griffin, who would decree that his successor take good care of his family. He really couldn't say the

    Merlin was left gaping at Charlie's nonchalant words. "Help Arlo Griffin… regrow his hand? Are you going to give him a Regeneration Pill?"He was aware that Charlie could help anyone regrow limbs, although the only method he knew of was the pill."Yes," Charlie nodded with a determined smile. "It's the only thing that can.""It's really expensive, but doesn't it even regrow an entire arm?" Merlin couldn't help asking.Charlie nodded again. "Or just a finger if need be. Think of it this way: it doesn't matter how many limbs or body parts you lose—take one pill, and you'd get everything back. It's the same concept of dining at a buffet. You get charged the same price whether you eat more or less."Merlin gasped. "Well, it's still a waste—he is a Griffin, and he's not going to keep the pill, anyway. Why bother…"He trailed off, but soon quickly corrected himself, "Hold on. I meant no offense, but I just think it's a waste to throw something so valuable to an enemy."After all, Merl

    Charlie joked, "Well, if you were sent over while being unaware, would you fail to find any clues?""Yes, I would fail," Merlin nodded. "Most cold cases stay cold because there's no usable evidence anyway. Not even divine intervention helps unsolved cases that ultimately stem from a lack of evidence."You see, in almost every country, there are always some cases that are solved years down the line, often because the officers finally managed to salvage evidence that eventually proved decisive… like partial fingerprints or just DNA stains. It's the age of information, so fingerprint and DNA databases are growing more extensive. If there's something that ties a suspect to the scene, their days are numbered."Merlin paused before continuing, "That's why we worked to clean up any possible biometric footprint we could have left when we evacuated. Once the cannery employees returned to work, even things we might have missed would be gone. Even someone like me wouldn't be able to find anyth

    In rural Morocco, laborers had no rights. As long as their superior provided work, they were grateful and willing to leave when told to. Forget compensation—just receiving wages was a blessing.So, although there weren't labor contracts with the cannery, no one wanted to upset the cannery owner for the sake of their livelihoods.Once the cannery owner started hollering for everyone to return to work immediately, no one dragged their feet—everyone quickly left their homes and rushed to the factory by various means of transportation.Moreover, none of them felt any resentment toward the cannery owner for backtracking. In fact, they were thrilled to have received a few days of paid leave. Now that their leave had ended early, they felt no sense of loss. If anything, they felt more comfortable because they still had a job.Still, when the foremen and supervisors arrived before the rest and saw that the production lines had been dismantled, they asked the factory manager in confusio

    As such, the cannery owner quickly scaled the steel gates clumsily, struggling to get down and eventually simply leaping off.Not bothered at all that he was now covered in dirt, he started running into the factory.Still, he was worried that Merlin or his men would show up, so he kept yelling as he ran into the factory, "Are you alright, Mr. Lammy?! Don't worry, I'm coming to help!"At the factory, most of the equipment had been left in pieces, as if they had been disassembled halfway and then left in that state.There was no one to be seen, although there was nothing out of place either.Looking around, the cannery owner was left muttering to himself, "Where did he go? And is this a temporary halt, or is he just bailing?"-Outside, Charlie and Merlin were watching as the cannery owner scaled the gates into the factory, with Charlie asking Merlin, "So, what do you think his next move is going to be?""He'll come by every day if he can't reach me," Merlin replied. "When he fin
