“Go back to the United States?!”
When Caden heard this, tears came to his eyes.
The first thought that flashed through his mind was excitement.
After all, this meant that Charlie was willing to let him go back to the United States, which meant that he would not take his life or imprison him.
So, he asked excitedly, “Can I?”
Charlie could not help but laugh secretly when he saw Caden’s excited appearance.
In fact, he did not plan to kill Caden at all. After all, Caden had merely played some tricks on Anthony with an underhanded method, but this crime should not be punishable by death.
What’s more, he had already handed the medicine cauldron over. Although he was reluctant to do so, he was still willing to admit defeat after losing the bet.
In addition, Caden had a personal friendship with his grandmother. If Charlie were to acknowledge his grandmother in the future and she brought up this friend of hers, it would be a little untenable if he had killed Caden or imprisoned him at his dog farm.
Moreover, he was also in a time of need, so a Taoist priest who had been in North America for many years and had the title of ‘Master Howton’ among high society would also be of great use to him.
Therefore, when he asked Caden whether he intended to return to the United States, it was just a small test for Caden. He guessed that if Caden was truly a smart person, he would immediately seize the opportunity to return to the United States at this time.
Sure enough.
