As a close friend of Charlie's father, Raymond hoped that Charlie would not repeat Curtis's mistakes, but Charlie's remarks made him realize that Curtis's and Charlie's lives had already been determined when Curtis decided to study the Preface of the Apocalyptic Book.
Charlie's life was also destined to be full of dangers. Peace and serenity were a far-fetched dream for him.
Thinking about this, Raymond sighed. "When I learned that people's destinies were divided into different levels, I thought that your father's fate of the dragon would bring him luck and joy, but from the looks of it, even if you have the fate of the ascending dragon, there are still difficulties and challenges everywhere."
With a gentle smile, Charlie said calmly, "Now it seems that everything is fated."
After that, he looked at Raymond and said respectfully with gratitude, "Thank you for everything you have done for me. Don't worry. I'll take care of everything later. You only need to stay here for one more night. I'll bring you out of here first thing in the morning. It won't be long before you can regain your freedom."
Raymond nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Wade."
At this moment, Charlie shouted, "Bruce, get in here!"
Bruce hurriedly entered and respectfully greeted, "Yes, sir!"
Bruce exclaimed, "He is one of the twelve grandsons of the current head of the family, and I work exclusively for him. He is mainly in charge of the family's gray-area business in the States, the money-related business such as casinos and loan services, and the political networking such as the judicial institutions and whatnot."
"I ran a casino for him in Las Vegas, and my family settled there too. Suddenly, he transferred me to New York. I didn't know the real purpose until I went home on vacation and found a hair that didn't belong to me in the bathroom drain. My wife has brown hair, mine is light blonde, and that hair was black..."
At this point, Bruce's face turned into a slightly heartbreaking grimace as he continued, "I suspected that my wife might have cheated on me, so I secretly installed cameras at home. When I was at the airport to catch a flight to New York, the camera caught that bastard Malcolm walking into my house!"
