Chapter 6086

Master Geoffrey's statement, "With the clouds and mist, we see the moon brightly," struck a deep chord within Claire. Charlie had never discussed these doubts with her in the past, making it challenging for her to bring them up. No one else could provide the answers she sought. As a result, she buried her uncertainties within herself, occasionally attempting to comfort herself with Charlie's rationale. Yet, Master Geoffrey's remark, "When I clear the clouds and mist, you will see the bright moon," felt akin to a sudden thunderclap in the fog, illuminating her long-buried thirst for truth. Turning to Master Geoffrey with a look of earnestness, she implored, "Please help me resolve my doubts!" Master Geoffrey nodded and replied gravely, "Your husband's destiny is extraordinarily rare among billions. He must be among people of exceptional talent and stature, earning the admiration of many." "But..." Claire furrowed her brow as she responded, "My husband doesn’t seem as remarkable as the Monk claims. He is self-taught and specializes in Feng Shui. Although some entrepreneurs and influential figures trust him, he doesn't seem that extraordinary." "No." Master Geoffrey said, shaking his head slightly. "A person of such a remarkable destiny would likely be among the top ten richest individuals in the world. If he were to pursue academic research professionally, he would at the very least be at a level worthy of the Nobel Prize. If he doesn’t seem exceptional to you, that is not his failing, but yours. There must be something blocking your understanding of the truth." Claire asked, astonished, "Is it really that impressive?" Master Geoffrey affirmed, "You may not have heard of Divine Dragon's fate. As far as I know, you may be the only one aware of it in this world." In a serious tone, he continued, "To become a Dragon, you must first embody the essence of a Dragon. Additionally, you must be blessed by a father who is also a Dragon. Only through hard work and self-sacrifice can you cultivate such a person. His parents must be the rarest of the rare, akin to Dragons and Phoenixes among humanity, nearly impossible to find among billions." Claire found herself torn between belief and skepticism. "Isn’t this a bit fantastical? If what you say is true, then my husband’s parents must be incredibly prominent people. But... he is an orphan..." Master Geoffrey smiled gently and replied, "Don’t forget, orphans once had parents before they became orphans." Claire was momentarily confused. Charlie had lost his parents in childhood and grew up in an orphanage. When she asked about his memories, he always mentioned that his parents were ordinary individuals who died in an accident, leaving him alone and eventually adopted by the orphanage's head. But Master Geoffrey claimed his parents were extraordinary, hard to find among billions. How could that be reconciled? Currently, what Charlie and Master Geoffrey said directly conflicted. If one were true, then the other must be false. Who was truly speaking the truth and who was fabricating? Though reluctant to acknowledge it, Claire felt the balance in her mind start to tip. She sensed that her doubts were leading her to find Master Geoffrey's credibility more convincing than her husband Charlie's. At that moment, Master Geoffrey looked at her and asked, "You mentioned your husband’s name is Charlie. That reminds me of the Wade family from Eastcliff. Have you heard of them?" "The Wade family from Eastcliff?" Claire replied, "I've heard that the Wade family ranks among the most powerful in the country. It seems they bought the Emgrand Group in Aurous Hill..."

At this, Claire's heart raced as she thought, "Emgrand Group... Wade Family... Charlie... Is there a connection?" She realized that at the time the news broke about the ownership change of the Emgrand Group, the Wilson family was also struggling. Her grandmother had sought to win a collaboration project with the Emgrand Group but approached it hopelessly. Surprisingly, Doris Young, the Vice Chairman, showed great recognition and not only awarded her the contract but also attended the Wilson family's press conference. Back then, Claire hadn’t understood why Doris would take such an interest in her. But if Charlie truly had ties to the Wade family, everything starts to make sense... Nervously, she turned to Master Geoffrey and asked, "Master, based on what you mentioned, is my husband related to the Wade family from Eastcliff?" Master Geoffrey didn’t answer directly but stated, "As far as I know, the most outstanding successor of the Wade family was a man named Bruce. His wife Lily was an even bigger figure, the eldest daughter of the Evans family, the top Chinese family in the United States. The Evans family wields even more influence than the Wade family. Bruce and Lily were once quite famous in the Chinese community and enjoyed global recognition. Have you heard of them?" "Yes." Claire nodded. While she didn't know Bruce well, she recognized Lily's story as a source of inspiration for many Chinese women. During her Master class in the United States, numerous classmates were admirers of Lily. Feeling increasingly anxious, she asked Master Geoffrey, "Do they... have any relation to my husband?" Master Geoffrey continued, "I came across an account from about twenty years ago that stated this couple was enemies of the Rothschild family. Eventually, they left the Wade Family and faced revenge, resulting in their deaths. Are you aware of this?" Claire nodded and admitted, "I... have heard some of that." Master Geoffrey inquired, "Do you know where they met with this tragic fate?" Claire shook her head vigorously "I really don’t know... Do you know more, Master?" Master Geoffrey nodded slightly, casting a serious gaze at Claire. "They were killed in Aurous Hill over 20 years ago!" "Aurous Hill?" Claire's eyes widened. A premonition washed over her, causing her breathing to quicken and her heart to race irregularly. Master Geoffrey continued, "Bruce Wade and Lily had only one child, a boy. After the couple was killed, the child's whereabouts became unknown. No one knows whether he is alive or dead..." Claire felt as if thunder were crashing in her mind. Recalling Charlie’s age, she instinctively asked, "Master... When did that boy go missing?" Master Geoffrey met her horrified gaze and declared, "The year he disappeared, he had just turned eight!" "Ah?" Claire felt dizzy and struggled to steady herself, responding nervously, "My husband entered the welfare home when he was eight. He stayed there until he turned eighteen and now he is nearly 29... This... has to be a coincidence, right?" Master Geoffrey remained calm, stating, "From a destiny perspective, your husband’s parents are certainly not ordinary people. Bruce and Lily represent true greatness. Moreover, your husband’s surname is Wade and the timing aligns perfectly. I believe your husband must be the only son of Bruce and Lily!"
