Charlie, who was in the opposite mood from Kathleen, was on his way home.
He felt much more relaxed after managing t o control Julian. Since Kathleen still wanted to continue hiding her identity, Charlie would continue playing with her.
In order to find out Kathleen's background, he called Porter. "Porter, do you have any detailed information about Kathleen Fox?”
Porter informed him, “Mr. Wade, the information that's currently available to m e shows that Kathleen Fox is the young lady of the Fox family. The Fox family is a fairly powerful Oskian family in North America. They're not as strong as the Acker family, but they're still stronger than the Laine family from Hong Kong and the
Schulz family in Oskia."
Porter then added, "The founder of the Fox family and the current head of the Fox family is Jordan Fox. He went abroad to study and worked hard in the early years o f his life, but now he's already more than ninety years old. It’s said that his physical health isn't very good, and it's estimated that he's almost at the end of his life."
When Charlie heard this, he came to a sudden realization. 'No wonder Kathleen Fox's been trying so hard to get close to me and my family! This is the reason...'
Charlie had seen Jordan's name on the auction registration list before. Combined with the Porter's feedback, it wasn't difficult for Charlie to speculate that
Jordan must have known that his time was running out. Therefore, he couldn't wait to get a Rejuvenating Pill and was probably worried that there would be an accident at the auction. So, he sent Kathleen to Oskia i n advance to look for clues about the Rejuvenating Pill from other channels.
This could also play out as a double insurance effect.
After Charlie had thought this out, he asked Porter, "What's Kathleen Fox's status in the Fox family?”
