He looked at Carmen, who looked terrified, and he thought to himself, 'Is this really my aunt who is so arrogant and domineering that everyone in Eastcliff knows about her? In the past, she would fight to the death even if she lost a single strand of hair. However, why hasn't

she had any thoughts about taking revenge after suffering so many grievances because of Charlie?' 4

When he thought about this, he was very unconvinced as he asked, "Aunt, don't you think that Charlie was too much when he treated you like that back then? Don't you feel angry at Charlie at all in the depths of your heart?"

Carmen took a step back and replied with a serious expression on her face, "No, I don't. Don't talk nonsense

Felix was so shocked that his jaw was wide open at this time. He was dumbfounded as he stared at Carmen. He would not have dreamt that Carmen would actually deny everything that he had said when he was using a provocative method to rekindle her anger toward Charlie...

Felix was naturally very depressed at this time. He hurriedly looked at his father, Clayton, as he hoped that Clayton would be able to come forward to support him and make another effort.

However, Jeremiah did not give him the opportunity to do so.

At this time, Jeremiah had an obviously displeased look on his face as he said coldly, "Felix, Charlie is your younger brother. No matter what you think of him in your heart, I want you to act like an elder brother and treat him well. Try to get along well with him." As he spoke, he looked at the others and said, "It's the same for the rest of you!"

Felix did not dare to say anymore, and he could only nod resentfully, "I got it, Grandpa."

Jeremiah said coldly, "Charlie will be arriving in a little more than an hour. You should hurry up and get ready first. You should go to the airport to pick him up personally and bring him back home!"

"Me?" Felix asked with a surprised look on his face." You want me to pick him up at the airport?"

"Of course!" Jeremiah said, "Charlie said over the phone that he was going to the Golding family mansion first, but he has already been away from home for so many years. Now that he has finally returned, he should naturally come to the Wade family mansion first upon landing. How can he go to the Golding family mansion first?! So, you should take someone with you to the airport to meet and greet him. Put in some good words and bring him back to the Wade family!"

When Felix heard that Jeremiah was asking him to go and pick Charlie up, he felt very upset in his heart.

He felt that he was actually the eldest grandson of the Wade family.

The status as the eldest grandson was equivalent to that of the Crown Prince. When the other

grandchildren saw Felix, they also had to be respectful of him. Charlie was just someone who had been away from home for so many years. So, why should he, as the eldest grandson, be asked to pick Charlie

up?

As he thought of this, Felix said somewhat reluctantly, "Grandpa, it's not a big deal if Charlie is coming back. Why don't you ask Mr. Thompson to arrange for a convoy to go and meet him? Wouldn't that be grand enough? There's no need for me to go too, right?" Jeremiah said determinedly, "We will only be able to show the sincerity of the Wade family if you go personally!"

Felix frowned and said, "Charlie is my second uncle's son. Even if he has already been away from home for so many years, he is still our family member. So, there is no need for us to be so courteous with our own family members, right? Why do we have to express our sincerity to him?"

Jeremiah said sternly, "What do you

know? Charlie left home at the age of eight. He has not come back officially to acknowledge his ancestors yet. So, he is still treating us as outsiders even now. Therefore, we have to let him feel the sincerity of the entire Wade family so that he can willingly acknowledge his own ancestors!"

Felix did not expect that Jeremiah would value Charlie so much and attach such great importance to him. He felt even more upset in his heart, and he could not help but slander Charlie inwardly, 'This

Charlie has already been gone net

for

almost twenty years. So, why is he abruptly coming back now? What is his intention? Could it be that he wants to try and snatch the position as the next heir of the Wade family from me?'

'Besides that, Grandpa is so protective of Charlie.

Could it be that he wants Charlie to stay in the Wade family so that he can act as a check and balance against me?'

'He is just a piece of trash who has been living outside for twenty years now. So, how can he possibly be worthy of being called my brother?!' 5

'I don't know why Grandpa thinks so highly of him. Is it because he has a marriage contract with the Golding family?'

At this moment, although Felix was very angry and dissatisfied, he did not dare to disobey his grandfather's wishes directly.

So, he could only suppress his anger and agree as he said, "Okay, Grandpa. I will go and prepare to go over there and pick him up."

Jeremiah nodded lightly. After that, he looked at Hugh, his third son Caleb's son, and said, "Hugh, you should go along with him too!" 6
