Chapter 1871


    If it weren''t because Charlie had overheard the conversation that Isaac had with his aunt over the


    phone on the way home, Charlie would have really believed that this woman on the other end of the


    line was really being so enthusiastic from the bottom of her heart.


    So, Charlie also pretended to be very surprised as he smiled and said, "Aunt! Is it really you? Why


    did you suddenly think of calling me?"


    Carmen actually did not want to call Charlie at all.


    In fact, she had originally passed on the order to Isaac, asking him to directly inform Charlie to go to


    Shangri-La for dinner tomorrow.


    However, Lord Wade had specificallye to look for her a while ago to ask her to personally make


    a phone call to Charlie.


    That way, it would seem as though she was more sincere. After all, Carmen and Charlie had not


    seen each other for so many years. A phone call in advance to get in touch with one another was


    also tantamount t o warming up to one another in advance then. Lord Wade felt that it would also be


    useful for their subsequent n to persuade Charlie toe home.


    So, Carmen smiled as she said, "Charlie, I have not seen you for so many years. I have always


    been


    thinking about you. In fact, I have been nning to visit you in Aurous Hill since a long time ago.


    However, I heard from Stephen that you seem to be a little reluctant toe home for the time


    being, so I did not want to bother you..."


    After that, she asked with great concern, “Charlie, how have you been doing throughout all these


    years?"


    Charlie could not help but felt a little disgusted.


    However, he kept up the act and remained polite and courteous as he said, "Everything has been


    going well for me. Thank you for your concern, Aunt."


    Carmen heaved a huge sigh of relief before she smiled and said, "I feel very well assured and


    relieved to know that you have been doing well then!"


    As she spoke, Carmen said again, "By the way, Charlie, the reason that I''m calling you is mainly


    because I want to make a trip to Aurous Hill to see you tomorrow. I would like to ask you out for a


    meal. I wonder if you have the time?"


    Charlie asked in surprise, "You''reing to Aurous Hill tomorrow?"


    "That''s right!" Carmen said, "To be honest, I was going t o ask Isaac to notify you about this matter.


    However, after putting some thought into this matter, I felt as though it would be better for me to call


    you personally since we''ve both not seen each other in so many years."


    Charlie smiled before he said, "Okay then! What time will you be arriving tomorrow? I will buy you a


    meal!" 4


    Carmen smiled before she said, "Why don’t we have dinner at Shangri-La tomorrow night? I have


    already asked Isaac to make all the necessary preparations." s


    "Okay then." Charlie agreed immediately without any hesitation at all. After that, he said, "I will meet


    you at Shangri-La tomorrow night then." 4

    Carmen smiled as she said, "Okay, sure! I will see you tomorrow then!" 1


    After Charlie hung up the phone, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.


    He had no affection or any good feelings for anyone with thest name Wade, be it his grandfather,


    his uncle, or even his aunt. 4


    Before investigating and finding out the actual cause o f his parents’ death, the Wade family would


    always be the biggest suspect in his eyes.


    After going back to the room, ire had already filled up the bathtub with water for Charlie.


    Charlie took a bath before he climbed into bed to sleep with ire.


    ire was like a child who was waiting to hear stories from him. She asked him if he met or


    encountered anything interesting when he was in Japan. 6


    Charlie told ire about the events surrounding the three top wealthy and influential families in


    Tokyo and everything that had happened to them.


    However, he deliberately removed his own presence from this series of events, not daring to let


    ire know that he had been deeply involved in this matter. 3


    He simply told ire that his client in Japan happened to have some sort of connections and


    rtionship with these families. Therefore, he managed to get his hand on some reliable inside


    information. 4


    ire was shocked when she heard Charlie telling her about all these incredible stories.


    All the elements regarding the top and most influential families, the ninjas and the series of


    assassination did not only sound unbelievable, but it was also very unique and new to her. 5


    Therefore, ire was very excited to hear about his stories and she kept pestering Charlie to tell


    her more until it waste at night.
