Chapter 1921
Cynthia was furious. Gritting her teeth, she shouted, โCharlie Wade! Don't think I, Cynthia, am confused. My status in the Wade family is far higher than yours! Respect me!โ
Charlie Wade ignored her, pointing to Don Albert and then to the empty seat beside Cynthia. Don Albert immediately escorted Donald to Cynthia's side.
Charlie Wade then reached out, removed Donald's headgear, and smiled slightly. โHello, Mr. Webb. We meet again.โ
โWadeโฆ Charlie Wade?!โ Donald recoiled as if struck by lightning. He couldn't believe Charlie Wade was there. Could he be behind everything? How could he have the power to do this?
Seeing Donald's horrified expression, Charlie Wade smiled. โMr. Webb, itโs been a while. But first, let me introduce you to theโฆ woman beside you.โ
Cynthia glared at Charlie Wade, gritting her teeth. โCharlie Wade! Don't push this too far!โ
Ignoring her, Charlie Wade continued to address Donald. โThis shrewโs real name isn't Caroline Wells; it's Cynthia Wade. She's the eldest daughter of the Eastcliff Wade family, my father's sisterโmy aunt.โ
โWhat?!โ Donald felt a shock like a nuclear explosion. His voice trembled. โYouโฆ youโฆ are you reallyโฆ really from the Wade family?!โ
Charlie Wade smiled. โIndeed, Iโm from the Wade family, but itโs not that impressive.โ
Donald, drenched in cold sweat, stammered, โMaster Wadeโฆ why didn't you reveal your identity? Knowing you were Master Wade, I would have been deferential. Even with ten thousand times my courage, I wouldn't dare oppose you!โ
Charlie Wade smiled. โDonald, don't be so scared. Look at you, youโre pale. The Wade family isn't as terrifying as you think.โ He pointed to Cynthia. โSee? Even Master Wade's daughter was tied up by you.โ
Donald frantically waved his hands. โMaster Wade, please don't say that! It was entirely Christopher and Harold's fault. They told me they were tying Elaine Ma; they didn't mention Ms. Wade. Only after I arrived did I realize how audacious they were to tie Ms. Wade, too!โ
Charlie Wade pointed at Cynthia. โDid you beat her?โ
Donald, looking distraught, choked out, โI was wrongโฆ I truly didn't know Ms. Wade's identityโฆโ
Charlie Wade smiled. โMiss Wade, was that fun?โ
Donald shook his head violently. Cynthia looked furious.
Donald, terrified, stammered, โMaster Wade, I truly didn't know your identity or Ms. Wadeโs. Otherwise, how could I dare to treat you two so badlyโฆโ
Charlie Wade looked at Donald. โMr. Webb, have you considered what will happen to the Webb family after today?โ
Donaldโs body trembled violently at those words.
