The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade

In the afternoon, Samuel Evans, flanked by his eldest son, Desmond, and his second son, Marcus, surreptitiously made their way to Eastcliff alongside Keagan.

Charlie didn’t immediately return to Thompson First residence. Instead, he headed to his neighboring villa and placed a call to Master Vail, the martial arts instructor in charge. He requested that Isaac and Don Albert be summoned to meet him.

Charlie had been concerned about the possibility of Isaac’s vanishing without a trace.

Stephen, as the chief steward of the Wade family, had a hidden force supporting him. This led Charlie to suspect that Isaac, as the family’s representative in Aurous Hill and Thompson’s direct subordinate, might have been strategically placed by someone. Fortunately, Isaac was still at Elys-Champs.

Upon seeing Isaac, Charlie’s apprehension somewhat eased. He couldn’t deny, though, that learning of Stephen Thompson’s allegiance to another master was disheartening.

On one hand, Stephen had been his father’s most faithful aide. Although Charlie couldn’t demand that loyalty to the Wade family, Stephen’s unwavering support over the years had created a minor emotional rift. On the other hand, Charlie had placed almost absolute trust in Stephen. After all, the man had safeguarded him for many years.

Charlie had arrived in Aurous Hill with the assurance of Stephen’s unwavering support. It was only today that he discovered Stephen worked for neither the Wade family nor himself. How could Charlie not feel let down?

His greatest fear now was the potential presence of others like Stephen in his circle. He dreaded the notion that the enigmatic figure might have seeded various spies around him.

Isaac and Don Albert were among the first individuals he’d met after reclaiming his identity as the Young Master of the Wade family. They were also two subordinates he held in high regard. If issues arose with

them, it would be a significant blow to Charlie.

Over ten minutes later, Isaac and Don Albert, who were engaged in martial arts practice, jogged their way to Charlie’s villa.

As they entered, Isaac respectfully remarked, “Young Master, when did you return? Why didn’t you inform us?”

“Yes, Master Wade!” Don Albert chimed in swiftly. “You could have let us pick you up from the airport!”

Charlie smiled faintly, gesturing them to lower their hands. “I’m only here for a day this time, and I’ll be leaving at night. There was no need to inform others.”

Isaac inquired curiously, “Young Master, where are you off to in such a hurry?”

“America,” Charlie replied casually, before turning to Isaac. “Isaac, what do you know about Butler Thompson?” As he spoke, Charlie subtly applied some reiki, influencing Isaac to answer truthfully.

“Butler Thompson?” Isaac detected nothing out of the ordinary. He considered for a moment and honestly replied, “Young Master, while Butler Thompson is my immediate superior, there are spokespeople for the Wade family in every province and municipality, as well as many overseas. So, I’m just one of hundreds of spokespeople for the Wade family. I’ve only interacted with Butler Thompson during the annual work report meetings in the past, so we didn’t have much contact.”

Charlie nodded in acknowledgment. It appeared Isaac and Stephen were not in the same boat.

Jagoan employed the same tactic with Don Albert. “Don Albert, did you know Jagoan before you met me?”

“No…” Don Albert shook his head emphatically, half-mocking himself. “Master Jagoan, before meeting you, I had no knowledge of you. I was just an old hand with a bit of reputation in Aurous Hill. I couldn’t
