Vera nodded and smiled, saying, “Young Master Wade promised earlier to grant you an opportunity, and he specially came today to fulfill that promise. Hurry up and express your gratitude!”Upon hearing this, the three men exchanged glances with one another excitedly and immediately knelt.When Charlie saw the three men, totaling almost three hundred years in age, kneeling before him, he couldn't bear it. He quickly tried to rise to help and stop them, but Vera suddenly reached out her fair and slender hand to stop Charlie and said earnestly, “Young Master Wade, there's no need for you to stand up. Their bowing to you is only right.”Charlie hurriedly said, “Gentlemen, you're all elderly. You shouldn't perform such a grand gesture. It's not appropriate…”Vera firmly said, “Young Master Wade, rest assured, there's nothing inappropriate about it. Their gesture is not only to thank you but also for their own sake!”She continued, “These three have been raised by me since they were youn

Charlie looked at the three elderly people with snowy hair in front of him, and he couldn't help but glance at Vera beside him, who seemed to be still youthful. He felt a bit confused for a moment.The three elderly men were indeed very old and even with limited interaction. It was evident that they were very experienced and wise.However, in front of Vera, these three seemed like children being scolded by their parents, obeying her every command without question. Although Vera herself looked like a child, her attitude toward the three elders remained stern, making him feel particularly awkward.Nevertheless, he quickly pushed aside this discomfort and politely said to the three, “Please stand up.”The three didn't stand up but raised their heads to look at Vera.Vera seemed indifferent to the elderly men kneeling before her, and she nodded casually before she then spoke up, “Since Young Master Wade has spoken, you may all rise.”Only then did the three men help each other up.

Logan took the tea knife and quickly expressed his gratitude while intending to cut the pill in half directly. At this moment, Charlie spoke up, “Mr. Carrick, there's no need for you to do that.”Logan was slightly startled and instinctively looked at Charlie. Charlie then took out another Rejuvenating Pill and handed it to Logan, saying, “This one is for your wife. Could you please pass it to her on my behalf?”Not only was Logan stunned by this, but even Vera was also taken aback. She never expected Charlie to produce another invaluable Rejuvenating Pill to give to Logan's wife, whom he had never met before.Charlie had visited Scarlet Pinnacle Manor several times, and Logan's wife had always avoided him, never meeting him in person.This was also the first time Charlie had given a Rejuvenating Pill to a stranger. His reason for doing so was solely out of gratitude for Vera saving his life.To Charlie, these three elderly men were all orphans raised by Vera. Logan's wife, pres

Vera was deeply moved by Charlie's actions. After that, Charlie earnestly said to the three elderly men, “Gentlemen, after taking the Rejuvenating Pill this time, your lifespan will exceed one hundred years. To avoid arousing suspicion from the outside world, Mr. Carrick should consider investing in a medical research institution. This way, when people question why you don't age, there will be a reasonable explanation.”Logan replied without hesitation, “Mr. Wade, you can rest assured that I will definitely invest in several similar enterprises and institutions.”Charlie nodded and then said to Emmett, “Mr. Sandsor, as someone in a high position, sudden changes like this should be handled carefully so as not to arouse too much suspicion.”Emmett responded without hesitation, “Mr. Wade, I have already decided not to return to Eastcliff. In the future, I will stay by Miss's side with Mr. Raven to attend to her needs.”Mr. Raven also smiled and said, “I have always been by Miss's side

Charlie frowned, “Then who do you think is on the plane and where could they be going?”Vera replied, “I dare not speculate on that.”After that, Vera added, “Regardless of who is on board, as long as their final destination isn't Australia, they will surely apply for the next segment of their flight route before reaching Australia. Flying from Buenos Aires to Australia takes at least twelve hours, so the most important destination of this plane will probably become clear in about eight hours.”Charlie nodded slightly, “It seems we'll have to wait until tomorrow morning to find out.”Vera smiled gently, reassuring him, “Young Master, there's no need to worry too much. Based on what I know about Fleur, she won’t come to Aurous Hill again. This plane might be carrying other people to execute other missions elsewhere.”Charlie hummed in agreement, “Thinking too much now won't help. We'll know where the plane is headed in eight hours. If it's coming to Aurous Hill, I'll still have ove

After bidding farewell to Vera and returning home, Charlie's mind was preoccupied with only two things.The first thing was to seize time and refine the Thunderstrike Wood from the Mother of Puér Tea given to him by Vera into a Thunder Order.The other was to wait eight hours and see where the Boeing 777 from the Qing Eliminating Society was headed next. If it was heading to Aurous Hill, he needed to prepare accordingly as soon as possible.With eight hours to spare, Charlie immediately began refining the Thunder Order upon returning home. For Charlie, refining the Thunderous Order was already a familiar task.When he returned to his room and infused Reiki into the segment of Thunderstrike Wood, he thought everything would be as simple as it was before. However, he soon found that his Reiki, which used to be unstoppable, had difficulty advancing within the Thunderstrike Wood.Previously, refining the Thunderstrike Wood was like carving an ordinary piece of wood with a sharp knife.

“Mandalay?” Charlie frowned and asked, “Is the information accurate?”“Absolutely,” Isaac affirmed. “Currently, the flight plan submitted to the Australian Air Traffic Control Department is indeed for Mandalay. They will probably land at Melbourne Airport in about four hours and then expect an hour or so of rest after landing before continuing to Mandalay. It’s about an eight-hour flight from Melbourne to Mandalay, so they won't arrive in Mandalay for at least another ten hours.”Upon learning that the other party wasn't coming to Aurous Hill, Charlie's first feeling was relief. He thought his strategy to put on a bold front to conceal his weakness had been discovered by the other party.However, he was also puzzled and did not understand why the Qing Eliminating Society would suddenly send a plane to Myanmar. So, Charlie called Vera and relayed Isaac's report to her.Vera was surprised to hear that the Qing Eliminating Society's plane had gone to Myanmar. She said, “Why would Fleu

“You're right, Young Master!” Vera said confidently over the phone, “I'm heading to Yorkshire Hill right now!”Charlie was puzzled and asked, “What are you going to do in Yorkshire Hill?”Vera sighed lightly and said with a touch of melancholy, “Young Master, ever since the Mother of Pu’er Tea met with catastrophe and I departed from Yorkshire Hill, I haven't returned there in the past two to three hundred years. I was afraid that Fleur would have set up a trap there, waiting for me to fall into it.”She continued, “Fleur's Five Military Governor Offices should have entered a state of silence by now. Even if she still has spies in Yorkshire Hill, they should have withdrawn to the location of the Central Military Governor Office or stopped all surveillance and waited for orders. It’s a good time for me to return to Yorkshire Hill now!”Charlie cautioned her, “Miss Lavor, please don't take it lightly. You are more important to Fleur than anyone else in this world. If she still has tr
