As he spoke, he sneered, “But it’s pointless for you to tell me this. All I want is the ring in your hand! I can give you a quick and painless death if you hand over the ring!”
Charlie ignored him, chuckled, and said, “I've lived under the care of others in Aurous Hill for twenty years. Even if life was tough and exhausting, I’ve never gone to the Wades or the Ackers. Do you know why?”
Mr. Chardon frowned and asked, “Why?”
Charlie calmly replied, “It’s naturally because I hate them! Even now, I can't bring myself to forgive them for their betrayal and abandonment of my parents back then.”
Mr. Chardon questioned, “Why did you save them time and time again if you hate them?”
Charlie said with a smile, “Saving them was just a coincidence. You should know that it was Quinn Golding’s concert at the time in New York. The Ackers went to that concert, and that was how you had the opportunity to attack them.”
Mr. Chardon squinted his eyes as he looked at Charlie. Although he was not involved in that incident, he was well aware of the details. The Qing Eliminating Society’s undercover agent who was placed among the Ackers suddenly reported that the Ackers were planning a collective action. The British Lord immediately dispatched dead soldiers to the concert, but all of them disappeared without a trace.”
Charlie continued, “Quinn is from Eastcliff. Her father, Yule, is my father’s sworn brother, so they arranged a marriage contract between Quinn and me when we were still children. Strictly speaking, she is the fiancée that my parents arranged for me before their death. That day, I appeared there because I was also going to support Quinn. Coincidentally, I sat in the private room next to the Ackers. Rather than saying that I intervened to save them, it's better to say that I intervened to capture the surviving members of the dead soldiers. If not for those dead soldiers, would I have been able to obtain detailed information about the Qing Eliminating Society?”
With that said, Charlie added, “As for today, to be honest, my main goal in coming here is not to save anyone, but just to kill you!”
Mr. Chardon’s gaze sharpened, “Kill me? Someone with your abilities?”
Charlie laughed and said, “Not only do I want to kill you, but I also want to kill the remaining two great earls of the Qing Eliminating Society and dismember that so-called British Lord! As for you, you're just a little pawn on my path of revenge.”
Mr. Chardon sneered sinisterly and said, “In that case, wait for me to kill your grandparents' family first, then we'll see who will survive as the victor in the end!”
Charlie sneered, “If you want to attack me, you should do it now. If you don't, I'll leave first.”
When he sprinted out of the door, Mr. Chardon did not hesitate at all. He immediately chased after him!
For him, the life and death of the Ackers were not that important compared to that ring. Besides, he thought the Ackers had little abilities or strength, so even if he caught up with Charlie and took the ring, he would still be able to kill the Ackers after that as they would not be able to escape far.
Moreover, with no one to protect them, he could easily kill Charlie and the Ackers in one go.
This way, he would not only be able to get the ring, but he would be able to kill the Ackers and Charlie, which would be equivalent to completing the three tasks assigned by the British Lord in one go.
However, if he really let Charlie escape, the losses would be severe! Not only would he have exposed his identity, but he would also miss out on a great opportunity to get the ring!
Therefore, he did not need to consider whether to pursue Charlie or not, and he did not need to worry about whether Charlie was trying to lure him away because he knew that his only choice was to go all out to pursue Charlie.
