Chapter 3769
Jacob drove away in his new Rolls-Royce Cullinan, and the two villas finally regained their peace.
Charlie and Claire had been on A05 villa's second-floor balcony. Both had witnessed the entire thing, and were now watching Jacob's Rolls-Royce gradually disappear from their sight.
Claire rubbed her temple and muttered weakly, "Oh, n o. Now that my aunt's back, things will become chaotic again..."
Charlie smiled, amused. "It'll be fine. Hannah seems quietly friendly to Mom. She was flattering her, wasn't she?"
"Yeah..." Claire pursed her lips, bitter. She added anxiously, "I'm really worried if they will meet again. If they join forces and fight with my grandma, we won't be able to live in peace..."
Charlie gave her a reassuring smile. "You don't have to worry about all that. Your mom's right. Lady Wilson has no wealth or power now. She can't beat Hannah at all. I'm afraid her life will only get worse in the future."
Claire sighed, feeling complicated. "When will my uncle's family and my grandmother pull themselves together?"
Charlie said, "Dear, you shouldn't worry too much about them. At the very least, they won't bother us
anymore. If they want to fight, just let them fight."
Claire nodded, still in low spirits, and returned to the room with Charlie.
It was late at night. Charlie was still lying in his bed, wide awake. Meanwhile, Claire was soundly asleep.
He was still figuring out a way to deal with Kylie's issue.
He knew she was here for the Rejuvenating Pill. However, he still felt a little uneasy as her true identity remained a mystery.
He could not confirm whether Kylie was a threat to him and his family. It would be fine if she planned to establish a good personal relationship with him to obtain the Rejuvenating Pill with their friendship. She might be manipulative, but at least not a threat. Naturally, that would mean no danger.
However, if she viewed him as a way to get her hands on the Rejuvenating Pill and tried to obtain it at all costs, she would become a very big threat to his family.
After all, she had a six-star martial artist with her.
In the whole Aurous Hill, no one else but him could be a six-star martial artist's opponent.
Even the strongest among those Ten Thousand Armies soldiers left behind by Porter was merely a five-star martial artist.
The gap between each level in martial arts was insurmountable. A five-star martial artist had no chance of winning against a six-star martial artist.
Charlie decided to first think of
some way to restrain the six-star martial artists guarding Kylie while he tried to confirm her real identity. He needed to know whether she
was a friend or foe.
Kylie loved to use the people around him, right? In that case, he would start retaliating by targeting those around her first.
He could remove the six-star martial artist, who was a treat. Even if Kylie turned out to be an enemy, there would be nothing to fear with the threat gone.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
He did not mind continuing the cat-and-mouse game with her, anyway.
Charlie made up his mind and then got up to send Stephen a message, instructing him to find out all the relevant information about those who crossed the border with Kylie.
He decided to take the opportunity to test the Ten Thousand Armies' intelligence system and confirm Kylie's true identity once he obtained the new information.
At the same time, at the Shangri-La Hotel in Aurous Hill.
Jameson Smith entered the hotel in despair, looking like he had lost a lot of weight in just a short few days. Not being able to see Liam for the past few days was a huge blow to him.
His son's remaining Apothecary Restoration Pill was gradually decreasing. If he couldn't get the medicine again, his son would run out of medicine
soon.
Jameson refused to stop his son's cancer treatment. He tried calling Liam day after a day, and even sent multiple emails to The Apothecary Pharmaceutical's official mailbox online.
He humbly requested to meet Liam, and even resorted to begging. But his messages sank like a stone in water, and there was no response at all.
The head of the intelligence service
was equally devastated. He failed to find any related information about the missing intelligence. On top of that, more of them disappeared under his eyes.
Left in the helpless situation, he had no choice but to temporarily suspend all agent activities.
