Chapter 6436

Penulis: Lord Leaf
Meanwhile, at Thomson's First, the family of four was peacefully having dinner for the first time.

While Charlie and Claire never argued, Jacob and Elaine were always either bickering or dissing each other, leaving the air around the table tense and awkward.

But this time, neither of them argued, and they didn't seem to despise each other.

The table was not just peaceful either—Elaine was a lot less bossy, even helping put food on Jacob's plate, having him try this and that, almost as if she was suddenly the best of wives.

Jacob used to regard Elaine with disdain in every way, constantly lamenting how a great man like him didn't have a good wife.

But with him being the way he was now, he utterly resigned to himself.

It made sense that Matilda wouldn't be interested in him given his current state, and it was amazing that Elaine willingly stayed with him.

That was why he no longer regarded Elaine with unconcealed disgust and disdain like before and was instead gentle and emotiona

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6917

    Merlin couldn't help but laugh as he listened to Charlie mock Fleur. "I really believed for a moment that you were giving Arlo a Regeneration Pill for free, and I had to admit I thought that would be a real shame… I guess all it did was taunt Fleur while Arlo got nothing out of it. I see this as an absolute win!"Charlie nodded and said, "The pill is definitely invaluable, but as long as it leads to the outcome I want, I dare say it was worth it.""Agreed," Merlin nodded. "Arlo is just out of luck, having had three hands hacked off."Charlie laughed, "He's a Griffin under Fleur's protection—he has either committed just as many atrocities as she has, if not abetting her. The Griffins, as well as the dead soldiers and armed cavalry guards, are the reason that the Qing Eliminating Society has survived until this day. In that sense, it's a bargain that I only cut off Arlo's hand."Pausing, he then shook his head. "Nope. I first gave him one hand, then took another away. That's just fai

    Arlo regained his composure right then and quickly said, "You're absolutely right, Gramps! I will go to the hospital immediately because it's the best place for me right now!"Tarlon nodded. "Yes. You've been put through a lot these past few days, and it has most certainly taken a strain on your body. Take your time and rest at the hospital. When the time is right, I'll inform your brother to bring you home. But that's not right now… so take your time, get some rest, and stay at the hospital until we send for you.""Yes, Gramps!" Arlo nodded. "I understand!""Good," Tarlon said. "Now, go."After hanging up the phone, it took Arlo considerable difficulty to slide his severed left hand into Callum's clothes with just his feet. He then immediately called for Marvin from Moore Trading.Naturally, Marvin was stunned by the horrific sight before him, while Arlo didn't waste any time explaining as he barked, "We don't have time to play 21 questions—dispose of the consul's body right no

    Though Arlo was used to seeing death, he suddenly felt a sense of loss and desolation at that very moment.That was also when he abruptly realized that Fleur keeping him alive while ordering Callum's death was not because of her magnanimity for one of her own—it was simply the way things stood for her.The way she saw it, it was an insult to her that her mysterious foe had force-fed Arlo that Regeneration Pill.She didn't want that little fact to ever come to light, and killing him and Callum should have been her ideal solution.If anything, she must have spared Arlo because Silas had just recently 'disappeared' after the fall of the Cyprus base, and Fleur couldn't afford to kill so many important Griffins so soon.That, or she could just watch as the entire Qing Eliminating Society became demoralized, and she would lose more than she had bargained for.Hah! And to think she had styled herself as a progenitor of the Griffin lineage, when the lives of her own relatives were worth

    Callum quickly said, "Yes, Sir! Right away, Sir!"However, just as he was about to leave, Tarlon called out from the other end, "Wait."Callum promptly turned and asked, "Yes, My Lord? What is the matter?""Consul Biffle," Tarpon said slowly. "Lady Griffin has demanded that you sacrifice yourself to uphold the Qing Eliminating Society's secrecy."Callum's face turned pale, and he dropped Arlo's severed hand.Even as despair showed all over his face, he begged, "Please, My Lord! You can tell Lady Griffin that I won't ever breathe a word about this! I swear it on my own life, and I humbly request that she take into consideration the fact that I've dedicated my whole life to her service and the Qing Eliminating Society! Please, spare my life so that I may continue to serve!"Tarlon remained impassive. "Do you think I could sway Lady Griffin's orders? Don't worry. She assures you that you will be posthumously promoted, and your family will be afforded the protection of a high-ranked

    Arlo had completely given in to despair—his gaze was empty as his expression went rigid, and he remained silent for 30 seconds.After that, he hung his head and wiped his tears, looking at his left hand as he murmured, "Lady Griffin has left me alive, but I am completely disabled from now on… unable to get dressed, eat on my own, or even wipe my own ass after taking a shit. A man who stands a good six feet tall, living like this? I'd rather die…"Tarlon promptly told him off, "A miserable life is always better than death—that's the eternal truth that will never change. Also, let me remind you that even if you die, you're not saving your left hand. It being attached to your wrist is the greatest threat to the entire Qing Eliminating Society and the Griffin family!"Arlo knew that there was no point in complaining or begging at this point—not even divine intervention could save his left hand now.Even if Fleur's mysterious foe gave him another regeneration pill, it would be pointless

    Meanwhile, Arlo was utterly enfeebled, and he had no idea what was coming, as he was drifting in and out of consciousness from sheer agony.Amidst his anxiety, he suddenly heard a knock on the door. Callum then announced respectfully outside, "Governor, you have a video call from Lord Griffin. He's waiting as we speak."Arlo frowned—Lord Griffin naturally meant his great-granduncle, Tarlon.However, he couldn't understand why Tarlon had contacted Callum instead of Arlo himself directly.Amidst his confusion, he felt a twitch in his eye—a bad omen.Still, he didn't dare delay as Callum had announced that his great-granduncle was waiting, and it most definitely was something that Callum should know as well.He struggled as he pushed himself off his feet and opened the door. Callum walked in, and he held the phone screen out to Arlo, who saw Tarlon on the screen and quickly said, "Come on in."Callum entered with his phone while speaking, "My Lord, I have the governor here."T
