Chapter 263 Meeting
“Gerald, come on, come here. Mr. Dominic says he will see you,” Hamish ran over from the kitchen and
said excitedly.
Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard Hamish’s words.
Dave looked at Hamish and asked, “Who is Mr. Dominic?”
“The owner of Quadrity. What’s wrong?” Hamish was confused.
However, when he finished speaking, Dave and the others instantly froze.
Charles was really meeting Gerald?
They had no idea what was going on.
Yes, according to their investigation, Gerald was really not well–connected. He only had Leandro
behind him, and Leandro was quite secretive.
So after they speculated, they came to the previous conclusion.
That was,
Gerald was a nobody who was used by Leandro and thrown to Washington!
Wisdom Group and Leandro’s Universe Group had some business cooperation.
So everything made sense.
In addition to Night Watch’s re–compilation and investigation of Gerald’s information,
it was not difficult for them to come up with this conclusion!
As for why Gerald could fight, they heard at Derick’s banquet that Gerald had learned to fight in prison
from an old friend of Derick.
Gerald met Ingrid in Sacramento, and Ingrid introduced Derick and Leana to him.
That was because Gerald reached the top level and Derick appreciated Gerald a lot.
On top of that, Gerald had no other background.
It was actually easy for Night Watch to seal off a person’s information. The Thornton family was well–
connected in Washington but was still way less than Night Watch.
Charles wouldn’t even see jared, but he was actually willing to see Gerald. Everyone was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdumbfounded by the situation.
They would find it more sensible if Charles was seeing Derick or Abraham.
But he was seeing no one but Gerald.
Dave looked at Gerald in shock. Gerald revealed a trace of a disdainful smile. He stood
and said, “Idiot!‘
up
Dave, Riley, and the others gritted their teeth angrily. However, none of them dared to speak, especially
Dave and Riley. They saw with their eyes how Gerald slapped Jared away. They knew that they could
not beat Gerald.
Gerald ignored Dave and the others who looked dull. He followed Hamish to the kitchen.
Apart from the chefs, no one was allowed to enter the kitchen. A window was specially designed beside
the pick–up station.
Looking at Gerald’s back, Dave exhaled and said, “Something is wrong. I always know that something
is wrong with this Gerald. How would Charles see him? Could it be that Charles has something to do
with Leandro?”
Dave could only start to think if Leandro was the reason because he couldn’t find an
answer in Gerald.
However, Dave knew very little about Leandro.
“I’m going home!” Dave said with teeth gritted. He ignored the rest of the people and ran outside. He
planned to tell his family about this news. Meanwhile, he would report all the information he had found
about Gerald and let the people of the Thornton family
decide!
Gerald was naturally not interested in what Dave was thinking. At that time, he was walking to the
kitchen. He was speechless as soon as he entered it.
Although the kitchen had been busy for the entire afternoon, it was kept clean and tidy
even with so many customers.
In the kitchen, there were dozens of cooks. They were arranging things in the kitchen,
each holding a bowl. It seemed that they were eating lunch!
“This is too fucking clean,” Gerald swallowed and said, “Fuck! Valery can literally blow the kitchen up
when cooking.”
Valery could also cook, but every time after cooking, she needed to clean up for a long
time.
However, in Quadrity, the kitchen maintained an astonishing tidiness under such a busy situation. It
was far beyond Gerald’s expectations.
“Mr. Dirden and Mr. Dominic are both very strict about keeping the kitchen clean. One will be fired right
away if he can’t assure the tidiness!” Hamish said, “Mr. Dirden and Mr. Dominic are in the backyard.
Come with me!”
Soon, they passed through the kitchen and arrived at a door. Hamish pushed it open and said, “Go in.
They are in the yard.”
“You are not coming with me?” Gerald asked.
“Mr. Dominic doesn’t allow anyone to enter the backyard, except for Mr. Dirden,”
Hamish said.
Gerald was speechless. Charles was indeed a very strange person. He might only speak to the chefs
while working.
Gerald had a question, won’t he feel too bored keeping that way all day?
“Alright, then I’ll go in there now,” Gerald said.
Hamish quickly nodded and said, “Then I’ll go back to my lunch.”
Gerald pushed open the door and walked to the back. After passing through the kitchen, there was a
courtyard. This courtyard was behind Quadrity. It was surrounded by walls
and looked like a part of Quadrity. It covered a large area and there was a pretty big
pond inside. Beside the pond was a small building. Under the building were many tables,
stools, and sorts of things there as decorations.
Kaven and Charles were sitting on the stone stool. There were a few dishes and a bottle
of wine on the table. And there was another set of cutlery there.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCharles looked very young. According to Gerald’s understanding, Charles should be around 37.
However, he appeared to be just over 30 years old. He had a square face and a pinch of bread. His
hair was very short and he was wearing a cap.
He was not wearing the uniform of a chef, but ordinary sports clothes!
When Kaven saw Gerald come over, he quickly stood up and greeted him, “Gerald, we’ve
been looking for you for a long time. What a coincidence that we meet here. Come on, let me introduce
you two to each other. This is Charles, we learned from the same teacher. You two are about the same
age. You can just call him Charles.
Charles raised his head and looked at Gerald. There was no expression on his face. He just nodded
lightly as a greeting!
“Charles is always like this. He doesn’t like to talk to people. Don’t take it to heart. Sit down and eat
something,” Kaven said.
Gerald nodded. In fact, he had not eaten lunch yet. After sitting down, he picked up his
fork.
At this time, Kaven said, “Gerald, I just heard from Hamish that you came to Quadrity for Charles. I
don’t know why you are looking for him, but don’t worry, I will make the call. As long as you don’t cross
the line, Charles will help you do anything!”
Charles still did not speak. He just sat there and ate little by little, not even looking at
Gerald.
Gerald let out a breath, then looked at Charles and said, “Alright, since Mr. Dirden has asked, then I’ll
get straight to the point. I came to visit Mr. Charles because of the two
bones in his hands!”
As he spoke, he looked at Charles’s neck!
There was a red rope, and on the red rope tied 2 pieces of almost translucent bones.
The bones were not too big, only the size of a thumb.
When Kaven heard this, his expression changed slightly. He looked at Charles.
Charles put down the fork in his hand slowly. He still didn’t raise his head and just calmly said, “You are
a Watchman, aren’t you? And if I’m right, you should be the Watchman No. O who turned the
underground world upside down three years ago!”
When Gerald heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank as he looked at Charles.
