Upon hearing Charlie’s inquiry, Isaac Cameron appeared equally perplexed. “Master,” he began, “to be honest, I don’t have any personal connection with your aunt. Due to my role, I rarely interact directly with the members of the Wade family. It’s Steward Thompson who has more frequent contact with them. Why not give him a call and ask?”
Charlie waved his hand dismissively. “Forget it, there’s no point in calling. Whatever happens, we’ll deal with it. Let’s first see what she intends to do.”
Isaac Cameron then inquired, “So, will you be having dinner with your aunt tomorrow?”
Charlie nodded in agreement. “Yes, if you arrange a time, just let me know when it is. No need to pick me up; I’ll go on my own.”
“Understood!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Charlie recalled his aunt’s previous demeanor, considering her to be somewhat harsh. She had married a young master from a quasi-first-line family in Eastcliff when she was five years old andter had a son, though he was unsure of her current situation.
Curious, Charlie asked Isaac Cameron, “What’s my aunt’s status within the Wade family now? Since she’s married, shouldn’t she be distanced from family affairs?”
Isaac Cameron responded candidly, “Master, your aunt separated from her husband quite some time ago and has since returned to live with the Wade family.”
Charlie frowned, asking, “Separated? What happened?”
With a chuckle, Isaac Cameron replied, “Well, I shouldn’t really divulge such information, but since you’re asking, I’ll share…”
He paused slightly before continuing, “When your aunt married into the Bass family, they were not as prominent as the Wade family, but they were still considered a solid quasi-first-line family in Eastcliff. However, about six or seven years ago, the Bass family made a significant investment in the steel industry, which unfortunately coincided with a downturn in that sector. As a result, they suffered considerable financial losses, with their overall business halving.”
Isaac Cameron sighed lightly, adding, “Since the Bass family’s downfall, your aunt has wanted a divorce, but her husband resisted, believing it would reflect poorly on them. Luckily, she eventually left the Bass family and returned to the Wade family, where she resumed her work.”
Charlie nodded thoughtfully, saying, “It seems my aunt isn’t someone to take lightly.”
Isaac Cameron smiled, acknowledging, “Indeed, her temperament is well-known and not particrly pleasant. So, when you meet her tomorrow, if things get tense, try to stay calm.”
“Got it,” Charlie replied with a faint smile. “Honestly, it’s easy to guess her intentions. She likely wants me back in the Wade family.”
“That’s right,” Isaac Cameron confirmed. “Steward Thompson mentioned that your aunt is eager for your return, but he’s been cautious about bringing it up, knowing you might be resistant at first.”
Charlie grinned andmented, “Given the recent troubles with the Banks family, the Wades must be quite pleased, right?”
Isaac Cameron chuckled in agreement. “You did the Wade family a significant favor. The Banks family hasn’t faced such a major setback in years; your master must be very satisfied.”
Charlie’s expression turned serious as he sighed, his determination evident. “These two families—neither deserves toe out on top. One day, if I can bring them both down together, that would be true sess!”
……
When Isaac Cameron drove up to Thompson First, it was already eleven o’clock at night. Charlie stepped out with his suitcase and made his way to the entrance of Thompson First. He approached his vi and swiped his card, entering the yard.
The lights were bright inside. Charlie quietly opened the door using his fingerprint scanner, careful not to wake his wife and father-inw. At that moment, ire, Jacob, and ine were in the living room, engrossed in a television show.<f86> For more chapters visit fin?novel</f86>
