As he looked into the eyes of the young boy, Luo Feng found something unusual and approached to inquire.
“Little friend, who are you?”
“This is my home; I should be the one asking who you are!”
From the boy’s response, Luo Feng deduced that this must be George’s son.
If he was George’s son, then his fate was practically sealed.
Even if Luo Feng chose not to harm him, Charlie surely would not let him go.
“Young one, you better leave Atlanta as soon as possible. If you can, you might just save your life.”
Having said that, Luo Feng leapt out of a nearby window.

The little boy wanted to chase after him but lacked the physical prowess to do so. All he could do was watch as Luo Feng vanished into the distance.
After departing, Luo Feng handed over the painting to Liu Jian, instructing him to deliver it to Mr. Wu at an opportune moment. He then hurriedly joined Jardins and Alice.
Jardins still appeared somewhat shaken, but Alice had already fully regained her composure.
In fact, Alice was even scrutinizing the arrangement of goods within the toy store, contemplating how to rearrange the display.
Seeing Luo Feng approaching, Alice hurriedly ran up to him.
“Luo Feng, I’ve made up my mind about what we discussed last time.” The determination in Alice’s eyes was evident.
Luo Feng understood that what Alice referred to was her arrangement with Charlie.
“So, what have you decided?”
“I’m going back to help my father. Although I’m not particularly fond of the family business, I’ve realized I don’t really mind it either. My father’s insistence that I inherit the business was what bothered me.”
“Now, I’m going to slowly try taking over the family business and see how I feel about it in the long run.”
Listening to Alice’s words, Luo Feng took a deep breath.
This child was incredibly mature and sensible.
Such a child needed neither advice nor words of wisdom from others. She could think through what she wanted to do and what she desired all by herself.
“In that case, that’s wonderful,” Luo Feng nodded, to which Alice smiled and said:
“Thank you for everything these past few days, especially you, Jardins. Without you, I don’t know what state I’d be in right now.”
Alice then walked to a shelf, picked up a cloth doll, and asked, “Can I take this toy back as a keepsake?”
“Of course,” Jardins replied, still visibly unsettled but forcing herself to be strong in front of Alice.
“And even if you return home, you can always come back here. We will always be friends, won’t we?”
Jardins’ words lifted Alice’s spirits even higher.
“Don’t worry, if I successfully take over the family business, I promise this wholesale toy market will undergo a radical transformation!”
“Oh, and about your family business, Jardins. I remember you’re also in business, right? I’ll make sure to repay you properly in the future!”
Alice was so mature in her words and deeds that if one were not to look at her youthful appearance, they might mistake her for someone in her forties or fifties.
“First, go back and familiarize yourself with your family business. We can discuss other matters later.”
Finally, Luo Feng immediately informed Charlie about Alice’s decision to return.

Charlie was thrilled upon hearing the news and even offered to send someone to pick Alice up.
However, Alice refused, wishing for Luo Feng to accompany her instead.
Naturally, Luo Feng agreed.
Luo Feng and Jardins drove Alice to the Cosmic Building.
After settling Alice in, Charlie led Luo Feng to his office.
“You’ve done me a great favor this time. I thought of various ways to thank you, but it seems like neither money nor connections would interest you. So, I had someone find out about some lost artifacts from your country that are here in the States.”
Charlie’s straightforwardness took Luo Feng aback.
“I’ve long realized that you’re not merely an antique enthusiast.”
“You’re collecting these lost artifacts to return them to your capital, aren’t
you?”
Caught off guard by Charlie’s insight, Luo Feng saw no point in denying it and openly admitted to it.
“Since you’ve already figured it out, there’s no point in hiding it. You’re absolutely right, and if you come across any information regarding artifacts in the future, please let me know.”
Luo Feng initially thought of offering some form of compensation, but considering Charlie’s extravagant corporate empire, money seemed insignificant to him.
What Charlie probably needed more at this moment was a favor.
After all, with the skills and capabilities Luo Feng had demonstrated earlier, having such a person owing you a favor could prove invaluable in unpredictable times..
