While Isaac was mobilizing his resources to pick Yashita up from Moncolne in the northeast to bring her over to Aurous Hill, his subordinates had escorted Sheldon up onto the plane to fly to Syria.
At the same time, Hamed, who was far away in Syria, had also begun mobilizing his own soldiers as he prepared to act according to Charlie's suggestion and policy to heighten his fortifications, store up on his rations and supplies, and delay enthronization.
When his friend, who was in the construction industry in Iraq, heard that Hamed would be able to give him a 50% premium for the project and would also be willing to pay him five million US dollars in advance, he did not hesitate to stop his project in Iraq, that was always late in payment. After that, he brought a bunch of construction workers who were willing to risk their own lives to make more money with him as they headed to Syria at top speed. 5
Cadfan did not know that his son had already started his journey to the west. 1
He only knew that Sheldon would be looking for an opportunity to meet with Yahiko today. So, he was waiting for Sheldon’s good news in the villa. 4
As for Yolden, who was teaching at the Aurous
University of Finance and Economics, he was feeling extremely tormented, and he had been suffering from extreme anxiety throughout the whole morning.
He had been following the reports on the eight hostages in Syria, but what made him feel very nervous was that there had been no latest developments or public reports regarding this matter a tall.
It was not that the local media did not report about it, but it was because the opposition force, who had taken these hostages, had not spoken up at all.
According to the opposition force’s previous public statement, if the United States embassy did not pay the eighty million US dollars, they would begin killing the prisoners one by one at a certain time interval.
It stood to reason that if the talk between the opposition force and the United States embassy came t o no avail, they would have to kill the hostages to pressure the United States embassy. However, they had simply gone silent, and they did not release any more information.
This was really counterintuitive.
Holden was also worried about Charlie's safety and whether Charlie would be able to bring his daughter back. 6
After all, there was a raging war going on there, and if Charlie were to go there alone, it would be very difficult for him to be able to easily rescue Yolden's daughter.
However, Yolden did not know that Charlie had already brought his daughter back to Aurous Hill as early as dawn.
When he saw Autumn in the cellar in Syria yesterday, the clothes that Autumn had been wearing were so dirty that the original color of her clothing was no longer visible.
After all, they had all been arrested as prisoners of war. So, under that kind of circumstances, it would be very difficult to guarantee that they would be decently dressed.
However, at noon later, Charlie planned to bring Autumn to the Aurous University of Finance and Economics directly to give her father, Yolden, a surprise.
Since it was to give him a surprise, Charlie naturally had to deliver Yolden’s daughter to him in a clean and excellent condition without any damage.
If Autumn were to go there dressed like a beggar, regardless of what Yolden would feel after he saw her, the main point was that the security guards at Aurous University of Finance and Economics might not even let her in.
After Charlie came to the commercial area, he bought high-end custom-made clothing for Autumn in the Chanel store.
The style for a high-end fashion brand like Chanel was slightly luxurious, and their clothing style was a little more glamorous and sexy. So, Charlie casually chose an off-white dress. 8
