Quinn did not expect that Janus would be interested in the charity dinner and so, she didn't hesitate to smile and say, "Uncle Janus, come with us tonight if you're interested!"
Janus nodded and smiled as he said," Okay. Miss Golding, I would not be causing any trouble for you, right?"
Quinn shook her head and said, "Why would you? They invited me as a guest and so, they will have to accommodate me."
Janus sighed and said, "That's good... To be honest, the last time I attended a charity dinner was twenty or thirty years ago in Hong Kong. I have never attended such an occasion ever since I came to the United States. So, today would be the right time for me to go and gain some experience."
Charlie had no doubts about Janus’ words.
Moreover, he had not asked Quinn about the details of this auction carefully and so, he did not feel that anything was strange at all. His acumen in details was indeed quite inferior and less sensitive as compared to Janus.
After eating, Quinn and Charlie simply stayed at Janus' small restaurant.
The three of them talked a lot on the second floor, which also allowed Charlie to hear a lot of things related to his parents from Janus.
However, Janus was also not clear about the hidden story behind Charlie's parents' murder back then.
At six o'clock in the evening, a series of crisp footsteps sounded, and Dorothy, who
was dressed in a professional suit, ran up the staircase quickly.
As soon as she came up, she said to Quinn," Quinn, Mr. Wade, it's almost time for us to leave."
Quinn nodded and said to Janus, "Uncle Janus, let's go."
