    In the icy expanse of Antarctica, Jadiel, the heir of the Wu family, rushed to Sara’s chamber. He knocked gently on the door and called out respectfully, “My Lord, I have important news to share!”<fnc0d8> Fresh chapters posted on Find~Novel</fnc0d8>


    Silence hung in the air for a moment until the sturdy wooden door creaked open as if moved by an unseen force.


    Upon entering, Jadiel found Sara seated cross-legged on the spacious hall floor, her spiritual energy flowing around her.


    With her eyes still closed, Sara inquired, “What is it? Speak.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Jadiel quickly replied, “My Lord, I have received word from China that the An family intends to coborate with the Wade family in investing in new energy vehicles.”


    Sara slowly opened her eyes and responded in a calm tone, “And what’s so significant about that?”


    Jadiel exined earnestly, “My Lord, I am not exaggerating. It seems quite sudden that these two families would announce their partnership, so I thought it imperative to inform you immediately.”


    Sara remarked, “I’ve attempted to eliminate the An family multiple times but have failed. They are too afraid to return to the United States right now. Instead, they’ve chosen to invest heavily in China to seek its protection. It’s clear that they view China as a new avenue for their future. Didn’t they make several investments recently? It’s not surprising that they would cooperate with the Wade family, who hold significant influence in China. For the An family’s growth there, they’ll want to be on good terms with the Wades.”


    Jadiel nodded in agreement and asked, “My Lord, since the An family has gone back to China, does that mean we won’t act against them?”


    Sara replied coldly, “We will act against them eventually, but not yet. They are currently thergest source of foreign investment in China. If we take action against them on Chinese soil, we would provoke China itself. My intention in wanting to eliminate them was primarily to draw out Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) and avoid furtherplications. If we be enemies of China, they won’t hesitate to retaliate!”


    Jadiel quickly asked, “Lord Ying, are you certain that Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) is still alive?”


    Sara replied, “For thest twenty years, every time I think about the deaths of Bruce Wade and Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom), I sense something is amiss.”


    Jadiel bowed and inquired, “If I may ask, Lord Ying, what makes you feel that way?”


    Sara exined, “Bruce Wade was no ordinary man. He possessed great talent and foresight. It seems improbable that he and his wife would be easily killed by Changshengbo. He would have known he was outmatched and would have made the necessary arrangements for his family. It’s unimaginable for them to simply surrender.”


    Continuing, Sara posed a question: “Consider this—if Bruce Wade hadn’t been prepared, how is it that he hasn’t located his son in all these years? An orphan vanished from the moment the incident urred. It’s unlikely he could disappear so thoroughly without meticulous nning.”


    “That’s true…” Jadiel pondered and respectfully replied, “What you say is reasonable. The child has been missing for two decades, and despite many searches, no one has seeded in finding him. If I recall correctly, he was only eight when he vanished. An eight-year-old definitely wouldn’t possess such capabilities. Bruce Wade must have orchestrated this well in advance.”


    Sara’s expression hardened, and she stated firmly, “If he had already made arrangements for his son, he surely would have left a way out for Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom). Furthermore, Changshengbo imed that Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom) was burned beyond recognition at the time of her death. This raises significant doubts. What if the person who perished that day wasn’t actually Lydia (Ava) (Charlie’s mom), but rather a substitute arranged by Bruce Wade?”
