All day long, the family was preupied with one thought: they just wanted to see Charlie and confirm with their own eyes that he was safe and sound.
When dinner time arrived, Don Albert arrived at their door with a fewpanions. He knocked, entered, and addressed Asher, who had opened the door. “Mr. An, I’ve prepared some delicious meals for everyone, and these are the chefs from my Tianxiang Mansion,” he said. “I personally checked the quality of the ingredients and supervised the cooking process. You can enjoy it worry-free!”
Asher was taken aback by Don Albert’s thoroughness, realizing that this middle-aged man was both meticulous and straightforward. Surprised, he expressed his gratitude, saying, “Thank you so much, Mr. Albert!” Don Albert quickly replied, “Oh, it’s nothing, Mr. An. You all are rtives of Master Charlie, and as his subordinate, it’s my duty to serve you.”
At that moment, the olddy approached and quietly interjected, “Mr. Albert, we actually prepared the meals you arranged for noon, but to be honest, our appetites are quite low right now. I’m really worried about Charlie; there’s been no news, and I haven’t seen anyone. I just can’t shake off this anxiety…” The old man, An Qishan, sighed and added, “Mr. Albert, is there any way you can contact Charlie for us?”
Don Albert smiled reassuringly. “Master Charlie specifically instructed me to arrange everything. Not only did I prepare the finest dishes from Tianxiang Mansion, but I also made sure to select the best wine. As for Master Charlie’s intentions, I believe you can guess.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
The old man suddenly looked surprised. “Mr. Albert, are you saying that Charlie will be joining us for dinner tonight?!”
The olddy, equally excited, chimed in, “Mr. Albert, does that mean Charlie is reallying to eat with us?”
Don Albert replied with a grin, “Old man, olddy, Master Charlie only asked me to prepare the best banquet and finest wine, without sharing any further details. I think it’s safe to assume what you’re hoping for.”
“That’s wonderful!” The olddy’s eyes sparkled with tears of joy as she eximed, “Charlie ising… Asher, get ready!”
Asher quickly responded, “Mom, if there’s anything you need me to prepare, just let me know.”
The olddy, feeling anxious, said, “I’m not sure… it’s just that Charlie hasn’t shared a meal with us in twenty years. We need to prepare some of his favorite childhood dishes. I still remember how much he loves my fried eggnt. Hurry, let’s get the ingredients ready!”
Asher patiently exined, “Mom, we were brought herest night by Mr. Albert in a hurry. We don’t even have the necessary ingredients, let alone the kitchen tools. Besides, Mr. Albert mentioned that Charlie asked us not to leave this ce.”
The olddy insisted, “Then please call someone to bring some over. My eldest grandson is back; as a grandmother, I can’t let hime home to nothing!”
Asher replied, feeling helpless, “Mom, there’s no mobile phone signal in this house, and I can’t even make calls onndlines. It’s not feasible to find someone to deliver anything right now.”<fn7b36> Th?s chapter is updated by FιndNovel</fn7b36>
Don Albert quickly interjected, “Mr. An, the mobile phone signal here has been blocked by Master Charlie due to concerns about potential informants within the An family. For now, it’s best to avoid any outside contact.”
Asher was taken aback, asking, “You mean there are informants within the An family?” Don Albert rified, “Master Charlie is merely cautious. For safety’s sake, it’s best not tomunicate with the outside world for the time being.”
He then turned to the olddy and said, “Olddy An, I’ve brought all the chefs from Tianxiang Mansion with me. I’ll make sure they take care of everything for you!”
Hearing this, the olddy’s expression brightened, and she replied gratefully, “Thank you so much, Mr. Albert!”
