By the time Charlie was done with the banquet and had left the Moore family villa, Sheldon had already set off for Aurous Hill. 3

In order to ensure that he would be able to get in touch with Yahiko as soon as possible, he specially arranged for his staff to book a hotel room for him in Shangri-La under his subordinate's identity. 1

He knew very well that Shangri-La was the Wade family's property, so he could not allow the Wade family to replace out that he would be staying at Shangri-La. At the same time, he also could not allow the Wade family to replace out that he was heading to Aurous Hill. 4

According to his plan, after his subordinate had booked the room at Shangri-La, checked in, and received the room card, the subordinate would wait for Sheldon nearby Shangri-La so that Sheldon could skip the check-in process and enter the hotel room directly.

Although the hotel clearly required guests to show their valid ID in order to make a booking, the real name system could only be implemented to the person who booked and checked into the hotel.

Moreover, the higher the level of the hotel, the more attention they paid to the guests' feelings and privacy.

As long as the guests who were entering and leaving the hotel were dressed in a decent and presentable manner, the hotel staff would not try to verify his identity.

Charlie did not know that Sheldon was on his way to Aurous Hill.

After driving away from the Moore family villa, he called his father-in-law, Jacob, when he was on the road. As soon as the phone call was connected, Charlie asked, "Dad, I am already done here. What about you? If you are done, I will come and pick you up now."

Jacob panted heavily as he said, "Charlie, I... I am so exhausted... you... you should hurry up and come save me..." 4

Charlie asked in surprise, "Dad, what is wrong with you?"

Jacob replied in despair, "Don't ask about it anymore. Your Aunt Hall dragged me out for a run. My legs are about to break now..."

When Charlie heard this, he could not help but laugh out loud.

As soon as Matilda had recovered from her illness, she had immediately dragged Jacob out for a run. It seemed as though it was because of the excessive strength and energy that she had right now. From this point of view, it seemed as though the dosage of the Rejuvenating Pill that Charlie had given t

o her had been just a tad high.

So, Charlie smiled as he asked Jacob, "Dad, where are you jogging? Send me your location so that I can come and pick you up."

Jacob hurriedly replied, "Wait a minute. I will send you my location right now!"

After he was done speaking, Jacob hurriedly ended the phone call and sent Charlie his location on WhatsApp.

Immediately afterward, he sent Charlie another text message: [My good son-in-law, hurry up and come over here! My legs are about to break!] 4

Charlie replied with an 'okay' before he quickly drove to the given location.

At this time, Jacob was sitting on the curb at the side of the road, and he was sweating profusely all over his body. 2

He had originally been planning to take advantage of Matilda's illness to build up the atmosphere so that he could have sexual intimacy with Matilda. However, he really would not have dreamt that Matilda would actually drag him out to the riverside for a run at night instead.

Moreover, Matilda's physical strength seemed to be surprisingly good. It seemed as though she was not tired at all from the running, but alas, he was not as fit as she was. After running for half an hour, he was so tired and exhausted, and he felt as though he had

already lost half of his life. 5

He had wanted to give up a long time ago, but he could only grit his teeth and persist because he did not want Matilda to look down on him. However, even though he was trying his best, he would still lag behind her. So, she could only run further on her own for a while before turning around to jog with Jacob for a short while before she continued running and so forth.

Jacob had already run until he felt like weeping. 3

At this time, he could not even think of a way to have sexual intimacy with Matilda. Even if Matilda was the one who took the initiative to ask him to do so, he wouldn't have the energy in his body to do it. He simply wanted to go home as soon as possible so that he could lie down and rest. 2

Charlie quickly drove to the location that Jacob had given to him. When he saw Jacob, Matilda was standing beside Jacob, and she was waving at him vigorously to signal for him to continue running. As for Jacob, he was sitting on the roadside curb with a pained expression on his face as he waved his hands continuously to signal that he could not continue running any further.
