"Okay, Old Master Lennard. Thank you for your hard work."
After hanging up Chandler's call, Charlie could not help but ponder in his heart," Eldest Uncle came to buy a Rejuvenating Pill, and it seems as though it should be for Grandpa. Combined with Old Master Lennard’s hexagram, it should be that there is some kind of condition with Grandpa's body.”
As he thought of this, a thought also flashed through Charlie's mind. Shouldn't h e confirm his maternal grandfather's situation and lend him a helping hand if the situation was critical?
However, when Charlie thought back to the doubts that he had when he was thinking about his parents just now, he felt a little indignant.
The Acker family was so strong, so why didn't they ever look into finding out the truth behind his parents' death even twenty years after their death?
In addition, Charlie still remembered that his maternal grandfather had never had anything good to say to his mother when h e followed his mother back to the United States to visit her family back then.
Every time his mother tried to catch up with his maternal grandparents and relatives, his mother would always return t o her room after that and cry in secret.
His maternal grandfather's family's attitude toward his father was even worse.
When his father would often come to stay for several days, his maternal grandfather would rarely even say a few words to his father.
So, as Charlie thought about this, he somewhat felt some dissatisfaction toward his maternal grandfather.
Since his maternal grandfather needed the Rejuvenating Pill right now and the situation was not very urgent, Charlie would just let him register for the auction himself next year.
With his financial strength, it would not be a problem for him to get a Rejuvenating Pill at the auction.
In addition, Charlie also had Stephanie on his mind.
He constantly felt that it was unlikely for the warning text message to be sent for no reason at all.
So, he kept waiting for the other party to write back.
However, the mysterious person did not reply even after Charlie waited until the next morning.
Claire was still sound asleep in bed, so Charlie called for the waiter to bring breakfast to the room first.
This was considered an absolute big event i n the design circle and so, it had garnered a lot of attention.
Claire recognized many famous designers during the check-in process, and she originally could not hold back and wanted t o get their autographs and take photos with them. However, Charlie kept reminding her that these people would be her classmates in the future and so, she should not lower her status at the beginning and make it seem as though she was inferior compared to them.
It was already noon after Charlie had accompanied Claire to take care of all the check-in procedures.
The both of them went back to the hotel to get the car, and they headed to downtown Providence to familiarize themselves with the city where they would be living in for more than a month in advance.
Charlie then chose a relatively high-end Western restaurant and had lunch with Claire.
While the both of them were enjoying their lunch, Charlie received a text message on his cell phone again.
When he opened it, it was from that mysterious person yet again!
Charlie quickly opened the text message, only to see that the text message read: [ Stephanie Lewis is in great danger. This is of great urgency! Please come to Vancouver quickly!!!]
