    When Charlie Wade spoke to his grandfather over the phone about establishing Bruce Automobile in partnership with the An family, Lord Wade was ovee with emotion and began to weep.<fn5d9a> Chapters first released on F?ndNovel</fn5d9a>


    His tears flowed even more when he realized that the name had originally been suggested by Charlie Wade’s grandfather.


    Bruce Wade had been his most cherished son, and the grief of his loss lingered painfully in Lord Wade’s heart. Initially, he believed that only the Wade family mourned Bruce Wade’s passing, while the An family seemed indifferent, even harboring resentment towards them for Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mother)’s death. However, he was surprised to find that the old man of the An family had always held a deep ce in his heart for Bruce Wade, and that sentiment weighed heavily on him.


    When Charlie Wadeter invited him to Aurous Hill to finalize a contract with the An family, Lord Wade agreed without hesitation.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie Wade wasn’t particrly rushed about the signing date. In theing days, the An family would be organizing Gao Heng’s rted assets and resources, and it would be perfectly fine to sign the contract afterward.


    Moreover, Charlie Wade wanted to take some time to generate excitement and announce the news to the public. He nned to make an impact on the automotive industry with the announcement of the joint venture between the An family and the Wade family before bringing his grandfather to Aurous Hill for the contract signing.


    An additional reason for this timing was to allow Hank to enjoy his wedding and honeymoon without any interruptions from this matter.


    Once everything was settled, Charlie Wade and Hank bid farewell and left his grandfather’s house. In high spirits, they indulged in a bit too much wine. Although Charlie possessed the ability to use his spiritual energy to eliminate the effects of alcohol, he chose not to. Instead, he embraced the intoxication, letting his thoughts wander.


    He made a special call to Don Albert to arrange for a ride home for Hank.


    Hank had been living with Matilda. When Charlie Wade dropped him off at his house, Matilda hurried out of the vi. Upon seeing Hank inebriated and flushed, she didn’t scold Charlie. Instead, she kindly asked, “Charlie Wade, thank you for bringing Lao He back. Did you drink too much tonight?”


    With a smile, Charlie responded, “Aunt Matilda, we didn’t overindulge, and Professor Hank is just a bit tipsy. No need to worry.”


    Matilda nodded, helping Hank while offering, “Would you like toe in for a cup of tea? I’ve brewed some green tangerine and Pu’er tea that can help you sober up.”


    Charlie politely declined, saying, “Aunt Matilda, it’s quitete, and I don’t want to intrude. It’s cold outside, so please go inside with Professor Hank. We should head back too.”


    Matilda didn’t press further, simply responding, “Then take care on your way back. We’ll see you tomorrow night.”


    “Okay, see you tomorrow night,” Charlie replied.


    He turned to Hank and said, “Professor Hank, I’ll head back now.”


    Hank, though slightly intoxicated, still had rity. He looked at Charlie and asked, “Charlie Wade, our previous agreement still stands, right? If all is well, I’ll inform your Aunt Matildater.”


    Charlie understood that Hank was referring to the agreement to reveal his true identity to Matilda. He hadmitted to this before, and he intended to honor it.


    However, with a raised eyebrow and a smile, he replied, “Uncle He, there’s been no change in our ns. But as the iing CEO, would you consider asking Aunt Matilda to be the vice president in charge of legal affairs?”


    In arge enterprise, having a strong legal department is crucial.
