Matilda confidently stated, “That must be Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) from the An family. She’s around our age. While we were slowly building our customer base, she had already be an angel investor for numerous Silicon Valleypanies. Many of her notable investments are now considered case studies in business schools. It’s no exaggeration to say she’s the female equivalent of Buffett.”


    Matilda continued, “Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) should be someone you went to school with, right? I recall you mentioning her in one of our previous conversations.”


    “Absolutely,” Hank replied with a sense of nostalgia. “Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) was my ssmate and an idol for our generation.”


    Matilda raised an eyebrow in surprise. “But aren’t we discussing Charlie Wade’s investments in the automotive sector? How did we end up on Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom)?”


    Hank looked at Matilda with a serious expression. “My dear, I have a secret to share, but you must promise me that you will only tell Paul.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Matilda nodded eagerly. “Don’t worry; since it’s a secret, I won’t even mention it to Paul.”<fn8e49> The rightful source is Find1Novel</fn8e49>


    Hank responded, “Actually, Paul should know too. After all, we are legally married, and he is my stepson; we are family.” Matilda nodded in agreement.


    She said, “Since you want to share this secret, it’s entirely up to you whether to tell anyone else.”


    Hank nodded slightly and said, “Aren’t you curious why Charlie Wade can afford to invest in a new energy vehiclepany valued at hundreds of billions? It’s because Charlie Wade is Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom)’s son.”


    “What did you just say?” Matilda’s eyes widened in shock. “Charlie Wade is Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom)’s son?! Wait a moment, are you referring to the same Charlie Wade who just dropped you off, Chang Kun’s son-inw?”


    Hank nodded affirmatively. “Yes, that’s him!”


    Matilda pressed on, “So, this Charlie Wade, he’s the son of Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom)? The grandson of the An family?!” Hank nodded again, exining, “Not only is he the grandson of the An family, but he’s also the current head of the Wade family in Eastcliff. You’ve lived in the U.S. for many years, so you might know Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom)’s name, but you probably don’t know his father. His father was Bruce Wade, a well-known figure in China.”


    “Bruce Wade…” Matilda gasped. “Is he the same Bruce Wade who dared to challenge the Rothschild family and always came out on top?”


    Hank replied with confidence, “Yes, that’s him! The Charlie Wade you know, the one who just drove me back, is the only son of Bruce Wade and Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom). Not only does Charlie Wade inherit the Wade family legacy, but he also owns the Dihao Group in Aurous Hill.”


    Matilda felt almost overwhelmed and asked, “The Dihao Group belongs to Charlie Wade?! That’s thergest local enterprise in Aurous Hill!”


    Hank smiled and added, “It’s not just the Dihao Group. You know Yisu Shipping, where Ziva Hank works? It’s now one of thergest shippingpanies globally. In the past couple of years, shipping prices have skyrocketed, leading to staggering profits for Yisu Shipping. While it appears to be a joint venture between the Banks family and the Ito family, Charlie Wade is actually the true major shareholder behind the scenes.”


    Matilda rubbed her temples, feeling dizzy. “Oh my God… This is simply unbelievable…”


    “It is indeed quite astonishing,” Hank chuckled. “By the way, you’ve heard of Wanlong Pce, the organization now providing armed escorts for Yisu Shipping, right?”


    Matilda looked at him, tentatively asking, “Are you going to tell me that Wanlong Pce also belongs to Charlie Wade?”
