Autumn, who was far away in Syria, was indeed very tempted and moved after hearing Charlie’s words.
During this time, Autumn and many of her classmates had encountered a lot of difficulties and dangers in Syria. Although they were lucky and fortunate enough to avoid all of these dangers by chance, every one of them knew very well that they were all facing very high risks simply by staying in Syria to continue filming the documentary.
So, Autumn felt that if she could truly get the twenty million US dollars sponsorship from Charlie, that would be equivalent to a very great improvement to everyone's personal safety, and it would be of great help to their filming expenses.
As she thought about this, Autumn replied to Charlie:" Mr. Wade, why don’t we do this, then? I will bring up your proposal and suggestion to the people in my team and see what they think about it. If they agree to it, I will not have a different opinion."
Charlie smiled as he said: "That's great! When will you guys be able to give me a clear conclusion, then?"
Autumn hurriedly replied: "We are currently preparing to participate in a military operation organized by the government. They will be attacking a small military base belonging to the opposition forces before dawn. I estimate that the entire offensive mission would
probably last about six hours. I will be able to give you a final answer before night time. Will that be fine with you?"
When Yolden heard that Autumn was going to participate in a military operation, he hurriedly told Charlie, "Charlie! You have to persuade her not to go! That is truly a war, and bullets don't have eyes. If she were to really get hit by a bullet and get injured, she would be half-dead even if she does not die!"
Charlie nodded and said, "I will try to persuade her, then..."
After he was done speaking, Charlie continued sending another voice message to Autumn: "Miss Hart, I personally suggest that you do not participate i n this kind of military operation. Why don't you and your team sit out of this military operation today? You can sit down and gather around for a meeting to carefully think over my proposal so that you can come up with a decision in regards to this matter. If your team is in agreement, I will transfer the money over to you immediately so that your team can instantly hire a group of mercenaries from Blackwater Company to come and protect and ensure your team's safety. What do you think about this?" 3
