"That's right!" Quinn was very angry too.
"They're threatening me with this now! If I don't go, I'm afraid that the concert would have to be postponed! I have so many concerts after this, so if this concert is postponed, it will affect the rest of my tour. Even if I put this show on hold now, they might use the same tactic on the rest of my tours.”
Charlie asked her, "What are you planning to do?"
Quinn said coquettishly, "Charlie, I need your help. I’d like to trouble you to accompany me to meet the Fox family. I don't know if it would be convenient for you..."
"If it's inconvenient, just forget it. I will directly announce that we have some issues with the venue and put the first show on hold. We'll go for the rest of the tours and come back to New York to replace the show later.”
Charlie asked with a smile, "Won’t your fans in New York be disappointed?"
Quinn replied helplessly, "But there’s no way around this! I believe they'll understand me...”
Charlie said, "It's fine. You mustn't disappoint your fans. Isn’t it just a meal with the Fox family? Well, I happen to be near the Fox family's manor now, so tell Dorothy to inform them that we'll be coming over for lunch. I'll send you an address later. Pick me up when you come, and I'll go with you."
Quinn was surprised to hear that. "Really? Charlie, won't I trouble you?"
"It's fine," Charlie said with a smile and continued, "I had plans to meet them soon, anyway. I'll just take this chance and meet them in the afternoon too."
Quinn hurriedly said, "Great! I'll pass the message to Dorothy and let her communicate with them. Once we confirm the time, I'll pick you up and go with you!"
***
Dorothy was relieved to hear that Charlie was willing to accompany Quinn to meet the Fox family.
If Quinn had had to go alone, she would never have agreed to it. However, she had nothing to worry about since Charlie was willing to accompany Quinn.
Xavion smiled and did not insist. "Sure. In that case, I'll be waiting for her arrival at home!"
Dorothy was losing her patience, so she quickly said, "It's all set, then. I’ll hang up first."
Xavion put down his phone and informed Spencer about the news, "Dad, that girl has agreed to meet us. She'll be here in the afternoon."
Spencer was pleased, and he said confidently, "This girl must have a clue to
Homer’s kidnap case. Let’s see if we can get it out of her mouth later!"
Xavion was a little worried. “Dad, this girl is a very popular public figure. Even if she deliberately plays stupid in front of us, it won't be easy for us to hurt her!"
"Public figure?" Spencer sneered in disdain and said icily, "A public figure means nothing to me! If she knows something, she must tell us everything! I don't care who she is! If she refuses to be honest, she’ll never be able to leave the Fox family!'
