Chapter 1618


    This waspletely uneptable for all of Charlie''s cousins!


    At this moment, everyone began to n a countermeasure out of desperation. 9


    Jeremiah, on the other hand, was feeling at ease and delighted. He was absolutely certain that the


    opportunity for the Wade family to take off and seed was in Charlie''s hands. This instantly


    cleared up the doubts that had been guing him for the past four years and made him feel


    extremely relieved. 10


    Heughed out loud, stood up, and said in a cheerful voice, "Alright, that’s it for today. Dismissed!"


    Everyone donned aplex expression, but no one dared to say anything against Jeremiah''s


    orders. They had their own ax to grind, and most of them had not anticipated Charlie''s high-profile


    return to the Wade family. 6


    After the meeting, as soon as Stephen returned to his office and sat down, he received a call from


    Charlie.


    Delighted, he hurriedly answered the call and asked respectfully, "Mr. Charlie, d to hear from


    you.


    What’s the asion?" i


    Charlie asked, "Stephen, is it convenient for you to speak now?”


    "Of course," Stephen said. "I''m in my office now, it’s very private and safe. If you need anything, just


    tell m e."


    Charlie gave an affirmative hum and said tly, "I''m i n Eastcliff now and I want to see you. Do you


    have time?" 6


    Astonished, Stephen asked, "Oh? Mr. Charlie, you’re in Eastcliff now? When did you arrive?" 7


    Charlie answered, "I’ve been here the past two days for some personal matters and n to go back


    tomorrow.


    I want to meet you before I leave."


    Stephen quickly said, "No problem. Please go to the Tea Time Room in the Honor Guild Hall. It is


    my property."


    Charlie replied, "Okay. I''ll head there now."

    Stephen immediately said, "I’ll go immediately too!”


    Back in those days, Honor Guild Hall, a century-old building, had been used to entertain schrs


    and diplomats from all over the country. Somewhat resembling a tourist information counter in


    Eastcliff i n the ancient days, it had gradually developed into a recreation center for old folks to


    spend their leisure time listening to music. 5


    Stephen had invested in a cafe in the Honor Guild Hall which had an antique ambiance and charm.


    He often came here to rx or entertain his friends. 6


    As the head butler of the Wade family, Stephen was considered one of the prominent figures in


    Eastcliff. I n addition to the top few big families, the heads of other families also had to be very


    respectful to him. Hence, his cafe was doing very well as it was often visited by a lot of respectable


    people. 4


    When Charlie arrived at the hall, Stephen was already there to greet him. He stood by the door and


    was surprised to see Charliee in with a woman wearing a mask.


    After working as a butler for many years, Stephen was exceptionally insightful and observant. At


    first nce, he was almost certain that the woman wearing the mask who hade with Charlie


    was Quinn Golding, i


    Astonished, Stephen asked in a rather excited voice," Mr. Charlie, Miss Golding, why are you here


    together?"


    Quinn giggled and said, "Uncle Thompson, there’s no way for me to hide from you even in this


    disguise, is there?"


    Stephen smiled. "Miss Golding, you are so beautiful and elegant, no mask in this world can cover


    it."


    Then, he hurriedly urged, "It''s not convenient to talk here. Please follow me to the backyard!"
