In Jeremiah's eyes, Charlie was a person that he had to fight hard to win over.

Leaving Charlie's powerful and incredible strength aside, Jeremiah was already looking forward to Charlie's official return to the Wade family simply because of the marriage contract between Charlie and Quinn, combined with the firm and willing attitude that the Golding family had to fulfill and abide by the marriage contract.

The money that he had made by engaging in trade and businesses would have to be gathered and accumulated one after the other. However, a sum of money that Charlie could make for the Wade family simply by marrying a woman would be equivalent to adding tens or even hundreds of billions of dollars worth of property and assets overnight for the Wade family. 2

Yule only had one daughter, and that was Quinn. Hence, everyone knew that as long as anyone were to marry Quinn, he would be able to inherit the entire Golding family. 1

Jeremiah had already wanted to surpass the Schulz family since a long time ago. So, if Charlie were to indeed take Quinn as his bride, the comprehensive

strength of the Wade family would surely surpass the Schulz family by a large margin. 5

Moreover, the Schulz family had suffered several successive blows at this time. If Charlie could act as the middleman to bring the Golding family and the Wade family together to deal with the Schulz family, it would be very likely for them to pull the Schulz family down from the first place so that they would end up in the third place instead. 1

At that time, the Wade family would be the first, and the Golding family would be in the second spot.

Moreover, the Golding family would basically belong to the Wade family at that point. So, that would certainly be the perfect opportunity for the Wade family to regain its former glory! 2

So, this was the reason why Jeremiah was very tolerant of Charlie. He could only give in and allow Charlie to use his Concorde when Charlie asked for it, and he could only agree to help when Charlie asked him to help him to get into Syria.

Therefore, Charlie immediately mobilized all of the resources and made all the arrangements. After that, he told Charlie, "Charlie, I have already made all of the arrangements. The plane will take off from Eastcliff in ten minutes, and it will land at Aurous Airport in half an hour after takeoff. After that, you can board the plane directly at Aurous Airport before making a direct non-stop flight to Lebanon!" 4

Charlie was relieved when he heard this.

Although his decision to go to Syria had indeed been a little hasty, and although there was no news confirming that Autumn had met with a mishap, Charlie felt that he had to make the trip there. However, since he was going to leave for Syria so suddenly, Charlie really did not know how he should explain this matter to Claire. 6

After much deliberation, he could only use the same old excuse, saying that he would have to help his customer to take a look at their Feng Shui there. So, he made a phone call to Claire. At this time, Claire was still in a meeting in Emgrand Group.

During this recent time, Claire spent more than half of her working hours at Emgrand Group.

This was because she would have to be in touch with the representatives of Emgrand Group in regards to many of the plans. So, if there was any need, the plan would have to be adjusted in time. Emgrand Group was the largest real estate development group in the city, and its requirements for their project partners had always been very harsh.

Moreover, in the entire Emgrand Group, aside from Doris, who knew about Claire's true identity as the chairman's wife, no one else knew about this at all. 2

Therefore, in everyone's eyes, Claire had simply won the bid for the collaboration and partnership with

Emgrand Group. So, they were naturally very strict and demanding on their project partner.

When Claire received the phone call from Charlie, she rushed to the bathroom. After answering the call, she asked, "Husband, why are you calling me at this time? Is anything the matter?" Charlie suddenly felt very entangled at this time.

In truth, he really did not want to lie to and deceive Claire unless it was a last resort. 7

However, he would not be able to tell her the truth anyway especially when it came to this kind of matter.

It was not only because Syria was in an extremely dangerous situation in the eyes of any ordinary people, but Claire would not be able to understand his real reason for going to Syria. 2

If he were to tell her that it was because the daughter O f a man who was his mother's classmate back then was about to meet with an unfortunate mishap in Syria, there would be many other questions that he would never be able to answer or explain at all.

For instance, who was his mother? Who was his mother's classmate? 1

Another example would be what could he possibly do if he were to head there barehanded when his mother's classmate's daughter was about to meet with an accident in Syria? Besides that, there was no direct flight to Syria. So, how was he going to get there? 6

Sometimes, if a person chose to tell the truth, he would have to reveal and explain all of the relevant key information and details. Otherwise, it would be more appropriate to simply fabricate a false reason instead. 4

After thinking about this, Charlie had no choice but to say, "Wife, this is the case. There is a client who wants me to go out of town to take a look at the Feng Shui of a house. He happens to be interested in a secondhand villa that someone else is desperately trying to sell. So, if I could just take a look and assure him that there is nothing wrong with the Feng Shui, he will just buy the villa." 3

Claire asked him, "You're going out of town? How long will you be gone for?"

Charlie thought for a moment before he replied, "If it is fast, I can come back tomorrow, but if it is slow, it might take me two to three days, then."

Claire could not help but ask in a low voice, "Husband, can you turn down this job? You will be celebrating your birthday in a few days. I honestly do not want you to be as busy as you were before during this time
