The Wade family did indeed have many branches of distant relatives. These distant relatives were spread all over the country and even all around the world. Although they also had the last name Wade, compared to the Wade family in Eastcliff, their economic situation was indeed far worse off.
Therefore, if he was a member of the Wade family in Eastcliff, Tom certainly would not be able to afford to mess with them. However, if Charlie was just a distant relative of the Wade family, Tom really did not have to be afraid at all. 3
After all, the Zielinskis were also a dignified and reputable family. Moreover, the Zielinski family had a pretty good relationship with the Wade family. So, they certainly would not allow a distant relative to trample all over him, right? 3
At this moment, Charlie smiled playfully before he asked him, "You said that you knew Carmen Wade just now. Are you very close to her?"
"Of course!" Tom blurted out, "Aunt Wade has a very good relationship with my father. We even had dinner together just a few days ago!" 3
Charlie asked with much interest, "Since you have such a good relationship with Carmen Wade, didn't
she mention me in front of you at all?”
Tom curled his lips as he said disdainfully, "You're nothing more than a distant relative of the Wade family. As far as I know, even if there are not one thousand, there are at least eight hundred young people like you amongst the Wade family’s distant relatives. So, how could Aunt Wade possibly mention you in front of me?"
Charlie smiled and said, "Why don't we do this, then? I'll get someone to bring your cell phone here. You can call her and ask her about it yourself."
When Tom saw the playful expression on Charlie's face, he could not help but feel a sense of panic in his heart as he thought to himself, 'Could it be that this guy is truly some big shot?’
But on second thought, it would not be a bad idea for him to call Carmen. At the very least, he would have the opportunity to send her some signals to call for help!
So, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay! You can give me back my cell phone, and I will call Aunt Wade t o ask her about your origin!"
Charlie glanced at Isaac and gave him a signal as he said, "Mr. Cameron, ask someone to send his cell phone over here."
At the same time, the Zielinski family had also asked someone to inquire and ask for some information.
