Charlie smiled and reassured him, saying, “It’s alright. If this leads to economic losses, I’ll be right there with you. I’m always up for it; after all, it’s just money. You should know in Aurous Hill, when has Master Wade ever been short on cash?”


    Walter was eager to find a way to refuse, but before he could, Charlie had already aimed the front camera of his phone at him.


    I must say, the facial recognition feature on mobile phones is incredibly efficient. Despite Walter’s swollen cheeks, the phone unlocked immediately using his face. Even though Walter’s phone was set to English, it posed no challenge for Charlie.


    Although he never attended university, Charlie received exceptional international education in his youth. From a young age, he grew up in a multilingual environment simr to that of current international schools.


    Notably, Charlie’s mother is of Chinese American descent, making English one of her nativenguages. She was raised with top-tier aristocratic education, excelling not only in English and Chinese but also having a strongmand of Japanese, French, and Spanish.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    In China, it’s quite umon for individuals to be multilingual. This is mainly because China is not a traditional immigrant country; the vast majority of its over one billion citizens speak Chinese.


    In contrast, the United States is a melting pot of cultures.


    The U.S. is a nation of immigrants, with many English-speaking Europeans and Chinese speakers among its popce. Given its proximity to Mexico, a significant number of Spanish speakers also reside there.


    Moreover, over the past two hundred years, waves of immigrants from Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Germany, France, and Italy have settled in the United States.


    The greatest advantage of living in such a diverse environment is the opportunity to engage with various cultures andnguages from around the globe.


    Thus, Charlie greatly benefited from his mother’s influence and established a solidnguage foundation from an early age.


    As Charlie essed Walter’s cell phone, his first action was to check the SMS and WeChat messages.


    Despite everything being in English, it seemed effortless for him to navigate.


    Walter’s face turned ashen, and he pleaded, “You can’t ess my messages! That’s illegal!”


    Charlie replied coldly, continuing to scroll through the messages, “Keep quiet, or I might just break your other hand too!”


    Walter was filled with dread. He feltpletely at a loss. If he remained silent, Charlie would undoubtedly uncover evidence of his involvement in poisoning Doris Young’s father from the chat logs. But if he spoke up, what would happen then?


    At worst, Charlie would break another hand, but he would still find the incriminating evidence. This thought filled Walter with regret as hemented internally: “Why did I have to get into this mess? If only I hadn’te to the hospital tonight, I wouldn’t be in such a dire situation with this jerk!”


    “I can handle the pain! But if he discovers I orchestrated the poisoning of Doris Young’s father, I’m done for! The Chinese police will surely charge me with intentional homicide.”<fnb30a> Discover more novels at fι?dnοvel</fnb30a>


    “If that happens, I could be facing at least seven or eight years, or even more than ten years behind bars in China!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
