Chapter 56

Author: Lord Leaf
Many guests gave Douglas their gifts. With the painting in tow, Charlie walked towards Douglas and said, “Congratulations, buddy. This is a little gift from us to celebrate your opening ceremony.”

Claire said with a smile, “Douglas, congratulations and best wishes on your grand opening. May your business be prosperous with many years to come!”

“Thank you, thank you!” Douglas said hurriedly. Then, he leaned to Charlie’s ear and whispered with a mischievous smirk, “Hey, I see that you and our belle have a pretty close relationship, unlike what the rumors say! When do you plan to have a baby?”

Claire blushed timidly when she heard the whisper. Charlie answered, “Stop it. If we are pregnant, you’ll be the first to know and I expect a gift from you!”

“Of course!” Douglas laughed and nodded. “I’ll give the kid a big present!”

At this moment, an average-looking woman with heavy makeup came up to Douglas and asked, “Douglas, who are they?”

“This is my college buddy, Charlie! This is Clai

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6887

    Roy promptly replied, "Yes, Sir!"That was when a soldier from Ten Thousand Armies hurried inside, informing Charlie and Merlin, "Mr. Wade, Captain Lammy, we spotted a car approaching the compound. A lone driver.""Are you sure he's alone?" Merlin promptly asked warily."Yes, Sir. It was definitely one person in one car," the soldier replied. "Antric had a solid vantage point from high ground, and we are able to see anything moving within a radius of ten kilometers."As he finished, his satellite phone vibrated, and he turned it on to display the image he had just received from Antric—a photo of the driver's face.Merlin breathed a sigh of relief once he saw it. "That's the cannery owner. Probably came to check on my progress. Tell Antric to ignore him if he's just looking around, as long as he's not coming inside. But if he does, stop him. I'll go out to talk to him if he mentions me by name.""Yes, Sir!" The soldier promptly relayed Merlin's orders.-Meanwhile, the cannery o

    Meanwhile, at the cannery, over ten thousand people were queuing up to claim the antidote that would counteract the poison in their veins.After Cyprus, Charlie once again bore witness to the immaculate discipline that the armed cavalry guards, the dead soldiers, and even their family members had.Even if this was a dream come true for many of them, each of them observed the order and never complained as they stayed in the queue.Moreover, everyone was dead silent as their respective supervisors told them to stay quiet, and there wasn't even a whisper. All one could hear from those ten thousand people was soft footsteps, and maybe a little flapping of their clothes.As for the antidote, Charlie had used up every pill he had.After selling his Rejuvenating Pill for trillions, he could likely get the world's richest people to pay quadrillions or more for those pills.Still, Charlie wouldn't obsess over mere money—he could just make more pills.However, it was unlikely that he coul

    Arlo promptly called Fleur, immediately respectful when she answered, "My Lady, my Hubbertians have found Praetor Singer's sword in Duca Mines, but there are no other signs of her."Fleur frowned. "The sword I forged is the very definition of a magical instrument, and it was my choice to give it to Penny and not someone like Ruby Chain… Yet you're saying the enemy didn't even take it?! Are they belittling my treasures?!"Arlo really didn't understand how Fleur's mind was functioning just then.Was it not good for them that they had recovered Penny's sword? Why was she upset instead?Still, he soon remembered that despite Fleur's might and cunning, she was still a woman, and their ego tended to be wired differently from a man's.Perhaps in her mind, that sword was a treasure, so the sword being left behind like trash was an insult—she would rather her mysterious foe take it and consecrate it like a family heirloom.Feeling a little awkward, Arlo said, "If I may offer an opinion, M

    Although Moroccan Authorities had cordoned off the entire Duca mining facility, their barricade may well be nonexistent to the Hubertians.They first examined the evidence, as the investigators had sorted out everything they recovered from the rubble for further examination. Penny's sword was basically the first item they discovered, which they classified as a personal possession.Hubbertian elites always answered to the Right Military Governor, and most of them had crossed paths with Penny, so they quickly recognized it and were aware that it was a personal gift from Lady Griffin.When they found it, the Hubbertians were overjoyed and immediately brought the sword back to Arlo.On the other hand, Arlo only felt a swell of ominous feeling in his gut.This sword was a magical instrument personally crafted by Fleur, and Penny had treasured it.As long as she was alive, she would definitely hold on to the sword.But now, the sword had been left in Duca, making it clear that her f

    Seeing a ray of hope, Arlo promptly ordered the task force to find the ship logs of the Port of Casablanca, combing through the freight vessels that had docked or departed within the last few days.Naturally, there were hundreds of them, and some were even heading to the other side of the world.But to Arlo, each ship was suspect, and he wasn't worried about the vessels being hard to track after reaching the wider ocean.After all, the movement of every freight vessel had to be legally recorded, and if they found a suspect, it would be easy to track down its country of origin or the company that owned it. It meant a lot of searching, but that still meant their missing garrison wouldn't elude capture.So, he had people investigate and record the routes of every vessel within the suspected timeframe where the Duca Garrison had left the mines.The international shipping system was almost no different from the international civil aviation system, with real-time information about every

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6882

    Now that they were working out in the open, hundreds of Hubbertians and the armed cavalry guards promptly split themselves into the three teams assigned by Arlo, and the investigation was conducted at full capacity.Although the Qing Eliminating Society didn't own any remote satellites, they could easily afford the latest satellite images from major satellite companies. Naturally, whether they actually had any images of Duca Mines depended entirely on luck.The good news was that they had managed to obtain satellite images of Duca Mines from several different companies spanning up to eight days earlier. However, the bad news was that these images showed nothing out of place.Naturally, the images were taken during the day, and they showed that the gates of the mining facility were locked up tight, with no one and no vehicles entering or leaving. There was no unscheduled entry or departure, let alone any signs of a large-scale evacuation.When Arlo was briefed on this news, he wa
