When Marianne saw Charlie standing at the door in a daze, she could not help but ask, “Mr. Wade, what’s wrong?”
Charlie regained his senses and smiled as he said, “Oh, I was preoccupied with something else. I’m sorry.”
The waitress then came over and said, “Please come in.”
Charlie nodded. When he followed the waiter in, he specially looked at the small bell hanging on the sliding door and was instantly inspired.
If the Qing Eliminating Society were to really send a great earl to Aurous Hill in the future, he had to have a ‘bell’ that could warn him in advance.
After sitting down with Marianne, Charlie took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Zachary, who sold antiques at Antique Street, asking Zachary to meet him at Champs Elys hot spring villa at noon tomorrow.
Zachary had started working as an inept advisor for Albert some time ago, and he did a good job. Albert’s industries and people were reorganized and restructured, which increased his income and management greatly.
Albert spent most of his time in Champs Elys Resort now, so he had placed Zachary in charge of most of the current matters.
Charlie just had an idea, and he needed Zachary to help him fulfill the idea.
Marianne was still a little embarrassed and reserved in front of Charlie.
After casually ordering some food, she took the initiative to say to Charlie, “I’m sorry, Mr. Wade… I should have told you in advance that I was coming to Aurous Hill…”
Charlie saw her embarrassed and bewildered expression, so he smiled and said, “There wouldn’t be this kind of feeling of surprise if you had told me in advance, right?”
Marianne could not hide her joy when she heard this, and she asked, “Really? Is that really what you think?”
