Chapter - 5060

Charlie noticed that Claire seemed a bit lost since that day. However, the two of them seemed to be on the road to reconciliation now. By giving them some time and allowing Michaela to explain her crisis situation to Claire, Charlie hoped that Claire would be able to fully resolve her negative emotions.

Furthermore, Charlie wasn't worried that Michaela would say the wrong thing or accidentally reveal any important information about him. He knew that Michaela was a very smart and capable girl and was confident that she would be able to explain the situation to Claire truthfully and perfectly while limiting her involvement with the feng shui master to a dead end.

Now, as long as Michaela still refers to Charlie as a feng shui master in front of his wife, Charlie is not afraid of anything. He knows he can explain any situation, even if the patriarch of a top family like Michaela shows him respect. After all, it was Charlie who helped Michaela adjust her feng shui and read her fortune to ask for guidance when she was being chased by her uncle. This helped her fight back and regain control of the Joules family.

A few minutes later, an FBI helicopter landed in the square outside the auditorium. Several FBI agents rushed in and brought out Matthew, who was being guarded by Flint Yeager. Matthew had given up resistance and was paralyzed as he was taken away by two agents. Many people were shocked to see him being taken away by the FBI and whispered to each other, trying to figure out why such a prominent figure in the design world was suddenly being taken away.

Flint Yeager watched the helicopter take off before returning to the venue to report to Michaela.

After hearing Flint Yeager's report, Michaela smiled faintly and said to Claire, "Claire, when I take control of AECOM, if you're interested, I'll ask you to be the president of AECOM."

Claire waved her hand in shock and replied, "I'm not qualified for that. I'd rather focus on running my small company back home properly..."

Michaela said sincerely, "There's no rush. I'll hold this position for you until you're ready. If you're interested, you can come over anytime."

Meanwhile…

In the early morning of Eastcliff, a slender and tall teenage girl with a fair complexion was quickly walking through a traditional alley in the city. Despite it being the busiest time of day, with vendors usually selling breakfast and a lot of foot traffic, the alley was eerily empty and cold. The girl made her way to the end of the alley, where a grand five-room mansion with three large doors stood. The mansion, with its impressive brass door nails and stone lion statues, was the residence of a prince in the Quintong Dynasty.

As the girl approached the mansion, two middle-aged men in civilian clothing emerged from nowhere and stopped her. The men, who seemed strong and determined, told the girl that the mansion was a private residence and she should not go any further. But the girl was not afraid and calmly replied, "Please tell Mr. Myers that Maria Clark is here and needs to see him."
