The Amazing son in law Chapter 1871

Had it not been for the phone conversation between his aunt and Isaac Cameron on the way home, Charlie would have genuinely believed that the enthusiasm in the woman’s voice was heartfelt.

So, feigning surprise, he smiled and said, “Auntie, is that really you? What made you remember to call me?”

In truth, Cynthia had reservations about calling Charlie herself.

She had already instructed Isaac Cameron to reach out to Charlie with plans for dinner at Shangri-La the following day.

However, Mr. Cameron approached her moments ago, insisting that she personally call Charlie.

This approach would convey sincerity, especially since it had been years since she last saw Charlie. A personal call would serve as a way to reconnect, making it easier for her upcoming plan to persuade him to return home.

With a warm tone, she said, “Charlie, it’s been so long! I’ve always been thinking about you. I wanted to visit you in Aurous Hill, but I heard from Stephen Thompson that you weren’t ready to come back, so I didn’t want to intrude…”

Then, with genuine concern, she asked, “Charlie, how have you been all these years?”

Charlie felt a wave of discomfort but maintained his politeness, replying, “I’m doing well, thank you for asking, Aunt.”

Cynthia let out a sigh of relief, her smile widening. “I’m so glad to hear that! It truly makes me happy!”

Continuing, she added, “By the way, Charlie, the main reason I called is that I plan to visit Aurous Hill tomorrow and would love to take you out for a meal. Do you have time?”

Charlie responded, surprised, “You’re coming to Aurous Hill tomorrow?”

“Yes!” Cynthia confirmed. “I initially wanted Isaac Cameron to inform you, but I thought it would be better to personally reach out since we haven’t seen each other in ages.”

Charlie smiled and replied, “Alright, when will you arrive tomorrow? I’d like to treat you to dinner!”

Cynthia beamed, “Let’s have dinner at Shangri-La tomorrow night. I’ve already coordinated with Isaac Cameron.”

“Sounds good,” Charlie said without hesitation. “I’ll see you at Shangri-La tomorrow night.”

Cynthia replied cheerfully, “Great! Looking forward to it!”

After hanging up, the smile on Charlie’s face faded away. He harbored no fond feelings for anyone with the surname Wade—be it his grandfather, uncle, or aunt. Until he uncovered the truth behind his parents’ deaths, the Wade family remained his primary suspect.

Back in his room, Claire had prepared a bath for him. After soaking, Charlie joined Claire in bed. Like a child eager for a story, she asked if he had experienced anything interesting in Japan. Charlie recounted the happenings involving the three major families in Tokyo.

However, he carefully distanced himself from the events, not wanting Claire to realize his significant involvement. Instead, he framed it as merely having clients in Japan with ties to those families, which granted him access to some insider information. Claire listened in awe, captivated by the unbelievable tales.

The elements of powerful families, ninjas, and assassinations were not just remarkable, but also enthralling. Claire was delighted, urging Charlie to continue his storytelling well into the night.
