Charlie's unquestionable tone as well as his unrelenting threat made Carvalho feel extremely nervous.
What Carvalho feared the most in his life was getting into trouble. The true portrayal of his adult life over the past seventy to eighty years was to escape at the slightest whiff of trouble.
This time, if it was not because he was really moved after seeing Chandler’s good opportunity, even if he were to get beaten to death, he would not have come all the way to Oskia to take such risks when he was already more than a hundred years old. 1
When he saw that he had provoked a ruthless person such as Charlie at this time, the only thing that came t o his mind was to hurry up and withdraw.
So, he softened his tone as he looked at Charlie and pleaded, "Mr. Wade, I really do not know Falco
Xanthos well. I'm already very old, and I also have various illnesses. Please do not make things difficult for me..."
Charlie did not look at him. Instead, he simply spoke loudly through the door, "Mr. Cameron, prepare the car and send Mr. Mason to Albert's dog farm for a tour!"
"Okay, Young Master!” Isaac, who had been standing outside the door all this while, heard these words, and he agreed immediately without any hesitation at all.
Carvalho's face turned pale in an instant, and he was about to continue begging for mercy when Charlie’s cell phone suddenly rang.
Charlie saw that it was a phone call from the United States, and he immediately knew that it must be a phone call from Chandler. So, Charlie answered the call directly.
Chandler’s voice sounded over the other end of the line as he asked, "Young Master Wade, I wonder how things are going on your end? Have you caught Falco Xanthos yet?"
Charlie smiled indifferently and said, "I'm thankful that you're worried and concerned about this matter. I've not found Falco Xanthos yet, and I'm currently looking for a breakthrough from someone else."
As soon as Chandler heard this, he could not help but ask, "Young Master Wade, the someone else that you are talking about should be Carvalho Mason, right?” 3
"Yes." Charlie said, "It’s him." i
