Kathleen knew better than anyone that Charlie couldn't care less about charging her his Feng Shui service, which usually ranged between millions of dollars.
After all, just one Rejuvenating Pill could easily be ten billion US dollars and above. There was a high possibility that Charlie was the real owner behind The Apothecary Pharmaceutical.
The Apothecary Pharmaceutical’s net profit could easily range from billions to ten billion US dollars annually. Why would Charlie care about a mere million dollars?
With that in mind, Kathleen quickly discovered the reasons behind Charlie’s action. Charlie established a n image of Feng Shui Master to his family, but not for money. There must be other reasons for it. Perhaps he needed time and space to work under his other identity.
Kathleen told Charlie in an understanding tone," Thank you, Mr. Wade. I owe you such a big favor! I don’t know how to repay you yet, but let’s keep in contact for now. Do let me know if you require my assistance in the future."
Charlie nodded with a smile. "If there’s nothing else, M s. Jane, shall we leave?"
Kathleen replied, "Alright, Mr. Wade."
After that, Charlie and Kathleen walked out of Sonfo Valley. At the gate, Kathleen asked Charlie, "Mr. Wade, do you have time later? Why don't I treat you to a simple lunch?"
Charlie rejected with a polite smile, "Thanks for the kind offer, Ms. Jane, but I have something to do later. I f there's a chance, let's eat together another day."
Hearing that, Kathleen stopped insisting and replied with a polite smile of her own, "I'll be staying in
Aurous Hill for some time, Mr. Wade. I'll treat you and your wife to a meal if possible.”
Charlie nodded, still smiling. "In that case, I'll be leaving first."
Kathleen nodded and bade him goodbye. "Have a safe trip, Mr. Wade."
She watched as Charlie drove away in his BMW. After that, she hurried back to her car.
Julian explained sternly, "Once you've reached a certain level, your age will be different from your appearance. For example, my master is already seventy-eight years old this year, but he still looks like he's in his forties."
Kathleen shook her head in disbelief. "I’ve gone through Charlie's information. He's only in his twenties."
Julian thought of a moment and concluded, "Then perhaps he's not a martial artist. Otherwise, I would be able to tell his strength immediately.”
Kathleen nodded lightly. "He may be young, but he has a really mysterious vibe to him. I find him hard to see through."
Sherry, who was in the front passenger seat, interjected, "Young Lady, I've just noticed something interesting.”
Kathleen asked curiously, "What is it?"
Sherry said, "Charlie Wade drove a BMW with the highest spec based on his car length, wheelbase, tire width, and the headlight configuration. I just compared it and concluded that this is the top model from last year, a BMW 760. However, the plate at the back of the car says BMW 520."
