He called Charlie immediately. It was already nighttime in Aurous Hill, and Charlie was watching television in the living room on the first floor with his family.
When Charlie saw that it was a phone call from Merlin, he went out to the yard and answered the call.
Merlin said over the other end of the line, “Mr. Wade, your uncle asked me to go to Aurous Hill with him and your grandparents. The purpose is to find clues about you. We will be leaving tonight. I already agreed to his request, so I wonder if you have any instructions for me?”
Charlie was not surprised when he heard Merlin’s words. After all, when he went to Willow Manor with Caden a few days ago, he already knew that his grandmother’s family would be leaving for Aurous Hill soon.
Therefore, he said to Merlin, “You can help them investigate as usual. I will handle all the clues in Aurous Hill, but you have to communicate with me in advance and let me know where you’re going to start.”
Merlin said, “I guess we will just start from the school where you originally studied, the place where your parents met with an accident, and the house your parents lived in before. All the orphanages and welfare homes in Aurous Hill will naturally be top priorities as well. I don’t think I need to remind you of this. I guess your uncle and the others must have already sorted out the clues.”
Charlie hummed in response and said, “I will take care of all these things. Just let me know in advance if there is anything else.”
Merlin said, “No problem.”
Immediately after that, Charlie instructed him again, “By the way, after my grandparents arrive, you have to ensure that they live in the villa in the center of Willow Manor. You have to find a way to delay time to let them stay there longer.”
The villa in the center of Willow Manor contained the formation and Rejuvenating Pill left behind by Charlie. The release of the pill would last for at least a month. Thus, the longer the two elderlies stayed there, the better their physical condition would be.
After ending the call with Merlin, Charlie called Isaac immediately. As soon as the call was connected, he said in an unquestionable tone, “Mr. Cameron, inform everyone in Aurous Hill who knows of my identity as the young master of the Wades that they must never mention my identity in front of any outsiders from today onward.”
Isaac’s tone was stern as he said firmly, “Okay, Young Master. I’ll get it done right now!”
Charlie then called Sophie. After the call was connected, Sophie said respectfully over the other end of the line, “Hello, Mr. Wade.”
Charlie said, “Miss Schulz, please help me tell Aunt Helen to be sure not to reveal any information related to me if anyone goes to my parents’ old house to inquire about my whereabouts.”
