The Charismatic Charlie Wade – Chapter 5447

Twenty years had passed, and Charlie found himself having dinner with his grandparents and their extended family for the first time. However, he hadn't eaten anything yet, and his mind was racing.

He hadn't disclosed to his grandparents and Jack that he had obtained the "Apocalyptic Book." So far, only Maria knew about it. He had chosen to confide in her not only because she had revealed her own secret of nearly four centuries of life, but also because he felt an inexplicable connection with her. They were kindred spirits, confidants.

At this moment, Charlie longed to see Maria as soon as possible.

He believed that he could only reveal the truth about the dragon's fate, the "Preface to the Apocalyptic Book," and the "Apocalyptic Book" to Maria. Even if she didn't possess any knowledge of the secret, Charlie felt that she was an excellent person to confide in, someone he could trust with the doubts in his heart.

Though he had never expressed it, ever since he had shared his deepest secret with Maria in her secluded courtyard, he felt an unprecedented sense of relief in his heart.
