Charlie Wade replied without hesitation, “Yes, just let me know when it’s convenient for you. Share your address, and I’lle find you.”<fn3> Read full story at F?ndNovel</fn3>


    Charlie Wade has always held great respect for Hank, not only due to his admirable character but also because of his genuine talents and knowledge. Their connection deepens as Hank was a ssmate of his mother, making them true old friends.


    Hank quickly responded, “I just finished my sses at the University for the Elderly. It’s the weekend, so there are no sses today. How about you give me your address, and I’lle to see you?”


    Charlie Wade considered this. It was already past three in the afternoon, and Hank must have had lunch by now. With a few hours to go before dinner, it wouldn’t be ideal for him toe to Heaven Springs for a discussion. Since Hank had lived in the United States for many years, he likely had a habit of enjoying afternoon coffee. Thus, Charlie suggested, “Alright, Uncle Hank, there’s a Starbucks located just south of the University for the Elderly. Why don’t we meet there for a cup of coffee?”


    “Sounds great!” Hank replied with a smile. “I was just about to ask for your address. I’ll grab a cup of coffee and thene find you. Let’s meet at the coffee shop; I’m close by, so I’ll order something for you in advance.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie Wade smiled and said, “How about an iced Americano? You go ahead, and I’ll head over now.”


    “Okay, see you soon!” Hank responded.


    Though Charlie Wade was uncertain about why Hank wanted to meet, he understood it was important enough to warrant a face-to-face conversation rather than just a phone call. Fortunately, it didn’t seem like there was any pressing issue, which eased his mind.


    Afterward, he bid farewell to Don Albert and Isaac Cameron and made his way to Starbucks to meet Hank.


    More than twenty minutester, Charlie arrived at the designated Starbucks, where he found Hank already seated by the window.


    Upon seeing Charlie, Hank quickly stood up, adjusted his suit, and waved shyly, “Charlie Wade, over here!”


    Charlie smiled slightly as he approached, and Hank eagerly gestured for him to take a seat. Then he pushed the coffee he had ordered for Charlie in front of him.


    After taking a sip of his drink, Charlie curiously asked, “Uncle Hank, you asked to meet me. Is there something important you want to discuss?”


    Hank hesitated for a moment, a look of embarrassment on his face. Finally, he said, “Actually, I should have shared this with you a while ago. But since you’ve been in the United States for some time, I didn’t know when you would return, so I held off on mentioning it…”


    After a few seconds of silence, Hank gathered his courage and continued, “Charlie Wade, your Aunt Matilda and I are nning to get married.”


    Charlie was momentarily stunned but then responded with genuine happiness, “Congrattions, Uncle Hank! Aunt Matilda is a wonderful partner; you’ve truly found a gem!”


    Curious, he followed up with, “When did you and Aunt Matilda decide to tie the knot?”


    Hank smiled sheepishly as he exined, “Remember when the city organized that cultural exchange trip to South Korea? That’s when I publicly confessed my feelings to your Aunt Matilda, and she epted me. After spending time together, we both realized how well-suited we are for each other. I’m not getting any younger, and I don’t want to dy important life decisions, so we’ve decided to take this step and start a small family.”
