The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 2088
Lord Moore trembled. "Mr. Wade, I beg of you. Please take some time off your schedule and take a trip to Japan. I'm afraid that you are the only one in this whole world who stands a chance to save her..." Charlie had not informed the Moore family that he had gone to Japan. 3
Therefore, Lord Moore thought that Charlie was still in Aurous Hill. 2
However, since Lord Moore had voiced this out, he too did not want to hide it from him anymore. Thus, he replied, "Lord Moore, honestly, I am currently in Tokyo. I will do my best for Jasmine." 1
Lord Moore was surprised, and he asked in excitement, "Mr. Wade, you... you're in Tokyo?! When did you go?!" 1
Charlie replied truthfully, "Last night, I heard that Jasmine was in trouble. So, I immediately asked Isaac from Shangri-La to arrange a plane and flew over to Tokyo as soon as I could."
Lord Moore was visibly relieved, and he said gratefully, "Mr. Wade, to have a friend like you, Jasmine is indeed very fortunate! You're someone with great mystical powers, I believe that you can surely save Jasmine..."
He then hurriedly said again, "Mr. Wade, yesterday,
Reuben brought a few people along with him to Tokyo too. Why don't I arrange for him to meet you? I will ask him and his party to listen to your every command. What do you think?"
Charlie couldn't help frowning after hearing this.
Meet up with Reuben?
He was not interested.
However, when he thought about the possibility of Reuben being the prime suspect in this case, Charlie felt that it would be good to meet up with him.
Meeting up with him would provide Charlie with more clues as to what he truly was. Charlie wanted to see if Reuben would expose anything in front of him.
Therefore, Charlie said to Lord Moore, "Lord Moore, you can inform Mr. Reuben to contact me via call. I will tell him when and where to meet." 4
Lord Moore was overcome with excitement. "Yes! Definitely! Mr. Wade, please wait a moment. I will inform Reuben this instant and tell him to visit you immediately! From now on, he will be listening to your every instruction!"
Charlie hummed and said, "Alright. Tell him to call me, then."
At the same time, Reuben was agonizing in his hotel room. 2
He had thought that this trip to Japan would be an easy one. He thought that as soon as he arrived, he would be able to recognize Jasmine's corpse and then immediately inform the family and discuss how to bring the corpse back home. Then, he could immediately go back to Aurous Hill and prepare for a big funeral.
After the funeral, he would give his grandfather the neurological medication that had been prepared by his father and slowly turn his grandfather into a senile old man. Then, he could control his grandfather like a puppet. 2
However, he never anticipated that his carefully laid out plan would be stuck at its initial stage.
He was here, but Jasmine's body was nowhere to be found...
Just as he was growing increasingly anxious and worried, and he didn't know what to do, Lord Moore called.
This was already the eighth call made by Lord Moore today.
He looked at the caller ID on the phone and saw the word 'Grandfather' on it.
F*ck this old piece of sh*t! He keeps calling like a mother f*cker! Sooner or later, I will die from being annoyed by you! 4
Although he was angrily scolding and cursing at his grandfather internally, he was still afraid of not picking up the phone. So, he immediately answered the call.
As soon as the call was connected, Reuben immediately changed his tone as if his personality had made a hundred-and-eighty-degree change. His tone was respectful with a bit of self-blame and sadness, "Grandfather, sorry, there is still no news from the Tokyo police force, but don't you worry, I will definitely urge them again!"
Lord Moore hummed and replied, "Reuben, I am calling to inform you of some updates."
Reuben hurriedly replied, "Grandfather, don't hesitate to tell me your orders!"
Lord Moore then said, "Mr. Wade is also in Tokyo now." 4
Reuben's entire body exploded with cold sweat from the shocking news, and he blurted out, "What did you say?!"
