At this moment, Liu Jiahui was consumed by anger.
He unleashed a furious curse, but Arman, wearing a slightly embarrassed expression, responded, “Mr. Liu, it’s been quite a while.”
“To hell with you!” Liu Jiahui shouted, pointing at Arman in fury. “You’re so damn arrogant. How dare you show your face in front of me! Do you really think you’re untouchable?”<fn0276> Th? link to the orig?n of this information r?sts ?n find?novel</fn0276>
Charlie, standing nearby, interjected coldly, “Mr. Liu, don’t you think that treating my esteemed guest this way means you don’t regard me, Charlie, very highly?”
Liu Jiahui snapped back to reality, suddenly feeling a chill run down his spine.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
It dawned on him that Arman had been brought here by Charlie!
Nervously, he turned to Charlie and asked, “Mr. Wade, how do you know him?”
Charlie frowned and replied, “Uncle Arman is a friend of my father.”
Looking at Liu Jiahui, Charlie then asked, “Mr. Liu, do you still wish to know who my father is?”
Liu Jiahui nodded, almost instinctively.
His connection with Bruce Wade was distant, especially since Bruce had passed away twenty years ago, making it hard for him to recall anything about the man.
Charlie observed him and, with a slight smile, articted slowly, “Mr. Liu, my father’s name is Bruce Wade—Bruce Wade of the Wade family in Eastcliff. You forget things so easily, don’t you? After all these years, do you still have any recollection of him?”
“Bruce Wade…” Liu Jiahui murmured, his brow furrowed in thought.
Suddenly, a memory struck him—he recalled the middle-aged man who had traveled from the maind to Hong Kong Ind to meet him.
At that time, Bruce Wade was well-known in Chinese circles.
This was not just due to his impressive background and capabilities, but also because he was married to a remarkable woman, Lydia (also known as Ava), who gained international acim for her role in propelling countlesspanies in Silicon Valley to sess!
When Liu Jiahui first encountered Bruce Wade, he had been genuinely impressed by the man’s extraordinary abilities.
It was Bruce Wade’s reputation and potential that led Liu Jiahui to agree to let Arman go, despite his strong dislike for him at the time. Liu Jiahui decided to overlook past grievances, considering the opportunity to align himself with the Wade and An families.
Initially, Bruce Wade had indeed intended to offer Liu Jiahui some form of assistance in return.
Unfortunately, shortly after, Bruce severed ties with the Wade family and left Eastcliff with his wife and children.
Just when Liu Jiahui was thinking about catching up with Bruce Wade, he received the heartbreaking news of Bruce’s death.
At that moment, Liu Jiahui’s first thought was of the significant loss he had incurred.
His earlier concessions to Arman were not simply out of respect for Bruce Wade, but rather a hope for long-term benefits from their connection.
However, with Bruce and his wife tragically gone, Liu Jiahui felt as though he had lost everything, akin to a farmer who had been robbed of his harvest.
Consequently, he quickly forgot hismitment to Bruce Wade.
As the years passed, Bruce Wade faded from Liu Jiahui’s memory as a significant figure.
Yet today, hearing Charlie mention his name reignited those long-buried memories.
In disbelief, he gazed at Charlie and stammered, “You… you’re Bruce Wade’s son?! How can this be? I thought that family… they were all gone!”
Charlie coldly replied, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I’m very much alive.”
Liu Jiahui trembled and quickly waved his hands, saying, “Mr. Wade… I didn’t mean it like that…”
