In the past, he thought that he was just purely fortunate to have obtained the Apocalyptic Book with a stroke of luck. Recently, however, his uncle had mentioned that his parents had once obtained the Preface to the Apocalyptic Book, and this led him to speculate that there might be a connection between the Preface to the Apocalyptic Book and the Apocalyptic Book itself, but he lacked concrete evidence.
Now, he had suddenly discovered that the manager of Vintage Deluxe, named Raymond, was actually a good friend of his father from over twenty years ago. Moreover, it was Raymond himself who had delivered the jade vase to his father-in-law, Jacob.
At that time, Charlie was waiting outside the VIP room while Raymond and Jacob were inside. Charlie hadn't witnessed what exactly had happened, but according to Jacob's account of the incident later, Raymond had taken the jade vase out of its exquisite packaging and handed it to Jacob. However, it had slipped from Jacob's hands and fell to the ground. Now, with Raymond’s involvement, it couldn't have just been a coincidence.
So, Charlie instinctively took out his phone and immediately dialed Jasmine's number. She was probably the only way for him to find out more about Raymond.
The call was quickly answered.
Jasmine felt a faint excitement when she received a call from Charlie at night, so she asked eagerly, “Master Wade, why are you calling me so late at night?”
Charlie suppressed his inner nervousness and asked, “Jasmine, I want to ask if the manager named Raymond Cole from Vintage Deluxe is still working for the Moores?”
Jasmine replied instinctively, “No, he’s not. He was rude to you and your father-in-law at Vintage Deluxe, and he couldn't see the true value of the jade vase you repaired. I thought that he did not only have flaws in his professional ethics, but he also had a huge lack of professionalism, so he was dismissed.”
Charlie hurriedly asked, “Dismissed? Do you know where he went after that?”
Jasmine said, “No, I don’t… I never saw him again after that incident.”
