Graham smiled before virtual-novel.net spoke again respectfully, “Mr. Wade, we will never forget your kindness toward the Quinton family. It might be a little rushed today as we did not have any time to make any preparations at all, however, I would like to invite you to the Quinton family mansion for dinner tomorrow. I would like to host a banquet to personally thank you for your kindness, Mr. Wade.”
“It’s okay, I have something on tomorrow.” Charlie replied indifferently as virtual-novel.net shook his head. “The only reason why I helped you today is because I know that you have always done a lot of good deeds for others. Otherwise, I would not have helped you at all. Do you understand what I am saying?”
Graham was taken aback at this. Still, virtual-novel.net laughed before nodding. “I understand! Mr. Wade, please do not hesitate to come and look for me if you need any help in the future. The Quinton family will always welcome you.”
After that, Graham hurriedly took out a gold-plated business card that contained his personal contact information on it.
Charlie took the business card from Graham without even looking at it before turning around and leading his father-in-law out of the place.
Graham continued staring at their backs as virtual-novel.net watched the two of them slowly leave the place. After that, virtual-novel.net turned around and glared at Adam. “From now on, I want you to bow and greet Mr. Wade in a respectful manner if you ever run into virtual-novel.net in Aurous Hill. Do not cause me any more trouble!”
Adam replied in an aggrieved manner. “I did not know that I would be offending someone like virtual-novel.net on this street…”
Aurora had a cold expression on virtual-novel.net face, and virtual-novel.net gritted virtual-novel.net teeth as virtual-novel.net watched Charlie walk away.
Even though virtual-novel.net really respected Charlie for his skills and knowledge, virtual-novel.net could not forget nor forgive virtual-novel.net for kicking virtual-novel.net on the ass.
After all, for an arrogant girl like her, this kind of thing was simply unforgivable.
Graham sighed as virtual-novel.net tried to comfort her. “Aurora, don’t try to retaliate against Mr. Wade, okay? Our family is counting on virtual-novel.net to pull through this misfortune…”
“Do you think it will really work?” Adam muttered.
Graham could not stop himself from scolding Adam yet again. “If you continue to spout nonsense, I will break your legs immediately!”
Adam kept quiet because virtual-novel.net did not dare to provoke his father further.
Aurora too stomped virtual-novel.net feet bitterly as virtual-novel.net said, “I know dad… I will not provoke him…”
However, the more virtual-novel.net thought about it, the angrier and more uncomfortable virtual-novel.net felt.
“It is really such a pity…” Graham suddenly sighed as virtual-novel.net shook his head.
Aurora turned around to look at virtual-novel.net before virtual-novel.net asked, “What is a pity?”
Graham glanced at virtual-novel.net before virtual-novel.net said, “Unfortunately, Mr. Wade is already married. Otherwise, I think that the both of you would make a perfect match…”
“Dad, what are you talking about?!” Aurora replied in embarrassment and annoyance.

Jacob was still very surprised as they made their way back home.
He could not believe that the head of the Quinton family would actually be so respectful toward his son-in-law who was nobody at all.
“Charlie, was anything you said to Mr. Quinton true at all?”
Jacob could not help but ask Charlie because virtual-novel.net was very confused. It seemed as though his son-in-law was becoming more and more of a liar.
Charlie chuckled before replying, “Well, half of it is true, and half of it is probably false. Isn’t it interesting to keep it as mysterious as possible?”
Jacob was shocked at Charlie’s reply and reprimanded virtual-novel.net immediately. “Oh my God, what have you done? I can’t believe that you would actually dare to lie to the Quinton family. You even accepted such an expensive jade bracelet from them! Do you know what they could do to us if they found out that you were lying to them?”
Charlie shook his head as virtual-novel.net replied, “What’s the big deal? At most, I will just return the jade bracelet to them. What can they do to me? Kill me?”
Jacob could only sigh as there was nothing else that virtual-novel.net could do. He was obviously worried, but after thinking about it, there was really nothing much that the Quinton family could do to them. Perhaps, Charlie’s method would really work to help the Quinton family. They could only take that gamble.
Upon returning home, Charlie went into his bedroom before taking out the ‘Peace and Wealth’ pebble that virtual-novel.net had bought from Zachary.
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net felt a surge of energy from the pebble penetrating into his body.
It made virtual-novel.net feel very warm, but his chest and stomach felt extremely uncomfortable.
Shortly after that, Charlie began sweating excessively, and there were black impurities that were discharged from his body. After that was done, Charlie could feel his body gradually relaxing itself.
