The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 5525
“Your grandfather?” Charlie asked again, “Who is your grandfather?”Vera said, “My grandfather is Logan Carrick, the richest man in Malaysia.”“Logan Carrick?” Charlie had heard this name more than once when he transferred to Aurous University. Since Logan had donated a lot of education funds to Aurous University and helped Aurous University develop rapidly, his story was well-written into the university’s history. He did not expect Vera to be related to Logan, so he was even more surprised as he asked, “What is your real name?”Vera said without hesitation, “My real name is Vera Lavor.”Charlie asked again, “Logan’s last name is Carrick, and your last name is Lavor. How can he be your grandfather?”Vera said, “He’s a distant relative. He is my grandfather’s distant relative. I turned to him for help after I escaped from Northern Europe. I asked him to help me forge a new identity as Veron Lavor in order not to be discovered. He’s the one who arranged for me to come to Aurous Hi

“Marianne Long?!” Charlie was stunned when he heard this. He thought to himself, ‘Could it be such a coincidence that there is a female lecturer named Marianne Long?’The next second, he wondered again, ‘She should just happen to have the same name as the Marianne Long I know, right?’However, when Charlie thought about how he had met Vera again here, he felt that it was not impossible if the Marianne he knew had come to Aurous University as well.Therefore, he asked another question, “Where is the Marianne Long that you spoke about from?”Vera answered truthfully, “She’s from Hong Kong. Her father is Shawn Long, a famous wealthy businessman in Hong Kong.”“Oh…” Charlie took a deep breath.He thought to himself, ‘When did Marianne come to Aurous University to be a lecturer here?! Why did a rich heir like her from Hong Kong come to Aurous University to become a lecturer? Why didn’t she tell me that she came to Aurous Hill?’Charlie thought about how Vera actually knew Marianne an

The ring had vibrated for the second time in the underground parking lot at Thompson First. If Vera was telling the truth, it would be completely reasonable if Vera had gone to pick Marianne up to go to Logan’s house for dinner. Charlie only needed to confirm whether Marianne lived in Thompson First to confirm whether Vera was lying or not. He could not find any flaws after reviewing Vera’s answers carefully. With this in mind, he thought to himself, ‘It seems that I need to get someone to check Vera’s entry record to see when she came to Aurous Hill and whether she lied. If she really didn’t lie, all this should be just a coincidence, then.”Charlie suddenly heard the sound of footsteps behind him, and a familiar voice asked from behind, “Veron, are you used to the dormitory?”Charlie could immediately tell that it was Marianne’s voice!In order to prevent Marianne from discovering Vera’s abnormal state, Charlie erased Vera’s previous memory immediately. While Vera was still in

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

However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott

Fuming, Jimmy snapped at Julien, "If you insist on playing it like that, I will call my boss, and you can talk to him yourself!"Julien chuckled. "That's unnecessary. I've never met him. He would never recognize my voice."Jimmy laughed and nodded despite himself. "Impressive—you can really come up with anything! You don't have his number because he's beneath you, you refuse to call him because he's beneath you, and when I say I'll call him for you, you say he won't recognize your voice. Well, how do you suppose we should sort this out? At least prove you're a Rothschild, or anyone could claim that they are—"Julien held up a hand to stop him. "Then, how about this? I'll ask my butler to talk to your boss."Jimmy laughed even more loudly as if it were the best joke ever. "Hahaha!!! Butler, you say?! You really know how to talk! Alright, I'll wait and see what your 'butler' can do… I mean, what you can do. We'll see whether my boss calls me!"Julien ignored him and whipped out his
