Charlie shook his head and remarked, “It doesn’t matter how much hardship you face. To me, every bit of hardship you endure serves as training.”


    Stefanie listened intently. As they drove out of the parking lot, she added, “My dad mentioned you just yesterday. Didn’t the doctor suggest he return to the hospital for further treatment? He’s aware that his health isn’t looking good. It’s such a regret for me that I couldn’t bring you to him sooner.”


    Moved by her words, Charlie offered a reassuring smile. “Daisy, don’t worry. With my help, Uncle Orrin will definitely regain his health.”<fn4c05> Chapters first released on find?novel</fn4c05>


    Unbeknownst to Stefanie, she had no idea about Charlie’s remarkable abilities or the fact that he was known as the True Dragon Master among the elite of Aurous Hill. Thus, she couldn’t truly believe that he could help cure her father’s terminal illness.


    At that moment, her thoughts were focused on how happy her dad would be to see Charlie. She believed that if his spirits lifted, it would positively influence his health as well.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Stefanie’s home was conveniently located not far from Eastcliff International Airport.


    The airport is situated in the northeast part of the city, with several exclusive vi districts nearby, not far from the central area.


    After about twenty minutes, Stefanie arrived at Eastcliff’s Ocean Mansion.


    While Eastcliff boasts numerous vis, most are multi-million-dor townhouses. There are only a handful of spacious and luxurious standalone vis in the urban area; the majority are found in the more remote northern areas, closer to the mountains.


    Among the limited standalone vis in the city, Ocean Mansion stands out as one of the premier vimunities.


    Each vi here is priced at a minimum of one billion dors and radiates luxury.


    However, even this upscale location pales inparison to the mansion of the Wade family.


    In Charlie’s memory, the Wade family mansion was not just any luxury vi but rather reminiscent of a royal pce from the Quintong Dynasty.


    It exemplified true understated luxury and grandeur. Charlie recalled that the dozens of golden snail pirs in the mansion alone were invaluable.


    It was rumored that over a decade ago, a single quote for one of those pirs had already surpassed one billion dors.


    But that wasn’t even the most extravagant feature; the mostvish was the Prince Gong’s Mansion in Eastcliff, where one pir of Jinsinan was valued at over two billion dors.


    However, the Prince Gong’s Mansion is a national cultural heritage site and cannot be owned by any individual.


    This distinction further emphasizes the prestige of the Wade family mansion.


    As Stefanie drove into her home, the courtyard and garage doors opened automatically.


    A maid in her forties hurried into the garage. While helping to open the car door, she greeted, “Miss, your mother is preparing dinner and has been waiting for you. Why did you leave without saying anything?”


    Noticing a man seated in the passenger seat, she was taken aback and politely said, “Hello, sir!”


    Charlie gave a slight nod, while Stefanie, brimming with excitement, asked the maid, “Aunt Dina, are my parents in the restaurant?”


    Aunt Dina nodded and replied, “Miss, your father doesn’t seem to be feeling well. He keeps saying he wants to rest in his room. You should go on ahead.”


    Upon hearing this, Stefanie quickly took Charlie’s hand and hurried into the vi.


    As they passed through the grand and opulent hall, Stefanie led Charlie straight to the dining area. The moment they entered the restaurant, she enthusiastically announced to the middle-aged couple seated at the table, “Dad, Mom, look who I brought!”
