Chapter 4379
At this time, Charlie's attention was almost entirely focused on his grandparents, who were just separated from him by a wall.
He heard Dorothy saying respectfully to his grandmother, "Lady Acker, you don't have to be so polite with me. You are Quinn's grandmother, and it is our honor to have you and Lord Acker come to attend Quinn's concert!" Lady Acker smiled and said, "Nana is now the most famous Oskian celebrity in the world. It is an honor for us to be able to come to her concert."
Lord Acker, who was aside, could not help but sigh as he said, "Miss Golding is indeed the light of the Oskians seeing as she could have such a strong appeal and can even bring her concert to the United States."
Lady Acker chided gently, "Why are you calling her Miss Golding?! She is your future granddaughter-in-law. Don't refer to her in such a formal manner. Her name is Nana."
Lord Acker laughed heartily and said, "Yes, yes, Honey. You are right to criticize me."
Dorothy could not help but sigh as she said, "The both of you really have a good relationship unlike my grandparents who bicker every day. Neither one of them are ever willing to give in."
Lord Acker smiled and said, "That is your grandfather's problem, then. As a man, if he wants to live an easy and happy life, he would have to give in to his wife and let her speak."
Yes!" Dorothy smiled and said, "I will tell him your trick when I go back and ask him to work hard at it!"
Dorothy then took the Acker family to the private room as they joked around, and after introducing them to the general situation inside the private room, she said to the crowd, 'The concert will only be starting in forty minutes, so you can rest first. The audience will start entering the venue now. I will go over to see if there is anything I can do to help. If there is anything you need, just press the call bell to call for the service staff or just call me."
Charlie's grandmother smiled and said," Thank you for the trouble, Dorothy. Go ahead and get busy if you have other things to do. Don't worry about us."
Just then, Lady Acker remembered something and quickly asked, "By the way, Dorothy, will Nana have time after the
concert later? If it's convenient for her, we will wait to meet with her, then. If it's not convenient for her, we will not bother her much."
Dorothy hurriedly said, "Oh, that would be fine! Quinn instructed me to tell you that you can wait for her in the private room for a while after the concert if you are not in a hurry to leave. She will come over once she's done." "Okay!" Lady Acker smiled and said, "We will wait for her here after the concert, then."
Charlie heard all of these conversations, word for word.
He knew that Quinn was coming over to see his grandparents out of respect, on one hand, and on the other hand, it was also partly due to consideration on his behalf. This was because Quinn was worried that Charlie and Claire would run into his grandmother's family when they leave and so, she had deliberately arranged it like this.
After the concert, his grandmother's family would naturally wait for Quinn in the private room, and Charlie could take advantage of this time to take Claire and leave directly. This way, although the two sides would be only a wall apart from the beginning to the end, they would not have the chance to encounter each other at all.
Moreover, as each private room has
a very strict acoustic treatment in order to achieve the best sound effect, it was equivalent to having double sound insulation between the two private rooms. In this case, even if Charlie and Claire were here talking loudly in the room, it was impossible for the room next door to hear them,
Even if Porter, who was a martial arts expert in the Great Perfection Realm of the Illuminating Realm, were to come over, it would still be impossible for him to hear the conversation next door.
Unless it was someone like Charlie, who had Reiki, then he could use Reiki to sense every movement next door.
After Dorothy had left, Charlie could feel that there were fourteen people in the private room next door, and four people were standing outside the private room door.
However, Reiki was not omnipotent,
and although Charlie could perceive the number of people, he could not rely on his Reiki to identify each person's identity. Nevertheless, Charlie could perceive that the four people standing outside the door were all martial arts experts. One of the strongest martial arts experts had already reached the level of an eight-star martial artist, which was comparable to Porter's strength when he had rushed up Mount Wintry. As for the other three, the weakest amongst them was a six-star martial artist, and the other two were seven-star martial artists.
It seemed as though the Acker family's strength was indeed extraordinary. This was the strongest bodyguard configuration that Charlie had ever seen, and it was second to none.
At this time, Charlie suddenly received a text message from Dorothy, and the text message only had five words: [Merlin hammy is also here.]
Charlie was slightly stunned. He had not expected that Merlin would actually come as well.
His grandmother's family had not seen him over the past twenty years, but Merlin had just seen him a few days ago.
