Yolden would never have dreamt that Charlie was already prepared to head to Syria!

His original intention in calling Charlie was not to ask for his help either. This was because he felt that Charlie would not be able to help him in any way either. After all, his daughter was currently in Syria, which was six to seven thousand kilometers away from him, and she was also in the hands of the opposition force who were heavily armed with military equipment.

Under this kind of situation, even the Syrian government would not be able to help in any way. So, he never would have thought that Charlie would be able to help him.

The reason why Yolden was making this call to Charlie was simply to give him an update about the latest situation.

So, when he heard Charlie saying that he was already prepared to head to Syria, he was shocked and completely at a loss for words.

After a short while, he subconsciously asked, "Charlie, you... how are you going to get to Syria? No civil aviation is connected to that place at all..."

At this time, Charlie had already stepped off the helicopter, and he was boarding the slender Concorde i

n front of him.

As he ran up the boarding staircase, he told Yolden over the phone, "I asked the Wade family to arrange for a plane to fly me to Beirut, the capital of Lebanon. After that, I will enter Syria from Beirut!"

When Yolden heard this, he immediately asked excitedly, "Charlie, you... are you serious?!"

Charlie replied, "Of course. I am already at the Aurous Airport. My plane is about to takeoff."

Yolden subconsciously asked again, "How long will it take for you to get to Syria, then? The opposition force will start killing their hostages in a few hours. I am afraid that you will not be able to make it in time in the end even after traveling from so far and going through so much trouble to get there..."

Charlie replied, "I borrowed the Wade family's Concorde. So, I will be able to get to Beirut in a little more than four hours. Also, I have asked the Wade family to prepare some resources and contacts for me there. After I land, I should be able to head to Syria directly. Beirut is just tens of kilometers away from Syria, so I should be able to make it on time."

Yolden hurriedly asked again, "Then... can I come with you?"

Charlie said, "Uncle Hart, we are already running out of time. I will be taking off in five minutes. You can just stay back in the country with peace of mind as you wait for me to get back to you. I will certainly bring

your daughter back safely."

Yolden replied gratefully, "Charlie, thank you so much

After he was done speaking, Yolden asked again," Charlie, how are you planning to save Autumn when you arrive in Syria? You have to promise me that you will not put yourself at any risk! No matter what it is you should not place yourself in any dangerous situation. Do you understand me?"

Charlie comforted him, "Uncle Hart, don't worry. I intend to mainly use money to solve the problem this time. Isn't the Syrian opposition force simply asking for ransom? If the United States Embassy is not willing to pay for the ransom, I will pay for the ransom myself."

Charlie could not help but make a joke out of himself a s he said, "To be honest, I am already prepared to give a lot of money to the opposition force after I arrive in Syria. No matter what kind of b*stards they are, it is simply impossible for them to hurt me, right?"

In truth, Charlie was simply trying to comfort Yolden so that he would not worry too much.

Using money to redeem a person was not Charlie's style of getting things done at all.

This was because he knew that it would be impossible for this kind of desperados or ruffians to have any credibility at all.

Generally speaking, these kinds of brutal and vicious bandits would only be tempted at the sight of money, and they would end up acting perfidiously in the end.

If Charlie were to truly bring tens of millions of US dollars over there in exchange for the hostages' lives, they might not only refuse to let them go but on the contrary, they might even feel that Charlie was their money-making opportunity, and they might even detain him instead.

So, this time, Charlie was prepared to use violence directly to solve the problem.
