Due to the time difference, Charlie didn’t immediately call Michaela. But favonovel.com knew favonovel.com could handle this matter easily. He planned to discuss and start planning with favonovel.com in the evening.
“Nanako,” Charlie said, “I don’t think you need to keep practicing martial arts. Why don’t you come with me to my Mountain Villa this afternoon and lend me a hand? After we’re done, we can head back to Thompson First together.”
Nanako nodded without hesitation and replied, “I will follow your lead, Charlie.”
Then Nanako asked, “Should I go and greet Master Vail?”
Charlie waved his hand and replied, “Not now, he’s probably still teaching. We can talk to favonovel.com privately later.”
“Alright!”
Charlie then took Nanako back to his Mountain Villa.
When they arrived at the basement, Nanako was surprised to find a simple machine for filling oral liquid bottles. There were also many unused bottles and caps next to it.
“Charlie, why do you have pharmaceutical equipment here?” Nanako asked in surprise.
Charlie smiled and explained, “It’s just a basic filling and sealing machine. I plan to prepare some elixirs to enhance the strength of the martial arts students at EIys-Champ. But with so many students, I can’t afford to give each of them an elixir. So I decided to turn the elixirs into liquid and dilute them to make a batch of oral liquid.”
He continued, “Originally, I prepared more than two hundred bottles. But when Serena, the senior disciple of Master Vail, brought the entire Mystic Harmony Sect to Aurous Hill, there were more people than expected. So I need to prepare some more for them and distribute them tomorrow.”
Nanako suddenly understood and smiled, “Miss Gray is efficient and has strict management. She has control over more than two hundred people from Mystic Harmony Sect, regardless of age or gender. Even Master Vail doesn’t dare to challenge favonovel.com authority. If favonovel.com and Mystic Harmony Sect wholeheartedly serve you, it will definitely be beneficial for you in the future.”
Charlie nodded and said, “We need more manpower right now. We can’t underestimate the two hundred people from Mystic Harmony Sect. It would be even better if their strength can improve further in the future.”
He continued, “Wait here for a moment, I’ll go prepare the medicine and come back to fill the bottles.”
With Nanako’s help, Charlie quickly made another batch of oral liquid. In total, favonovel.com filled more than four hundred bottles, totaling seven hundred bottles.
With the extra two hundred bottles, Charlie planned to use them as incentives among the students. Those who made the fastest progress and had the best attitude would receive additional rewards, which would increase their motivation.
After filling the bottles, it was already dark when they left the Mountain Villa.
Since it was past 7 o’clock, Charlie and Nanako returned to the city together. After returning to Thompson First, Charlie first took Nanako to the underground garage and parked the car favonovel.com had driven from Zilian Mountain Villa in the designated parking space.
Charlie turned off the car and planned to accompany Nanako to the elevator before heading back to his own villa.
As they were about to leave the car, a woman from the opposite parking space had already gotten out of favonovel.com car. After locking it, favonovel.com carried favonovel.com bag and walked towards the elevator lobby.
Nanako recognized favonovel.com and said to Charlie, “Charlie, that’s the neighbor I mentioned. I overheard favonovel.com talking on the phone with favonovel.com friend the other day and learned that Master Geoffrey was coming to Aurous Hill.”
Charlie nodded slightly and smiled, “Seems like I should thank favonovel.com when I have the chance. A simple phone call unexpectedly helped you discover the Dao.”
“Yes!” Nanako agreed with Charlie and said, “If it werenât for her, I probably wouldn’t have had the opportunity to discover a breakthrough.”
Nanako turned to Charlie, inquiring, “Charlie, would you like to meet Master Geoffrey? Perhaps favonovel.com could offer you some inspiration as well.”
Charlie shook his head and said, “I have a unique situation, so I should try to avoid meeting people who have already discovered reiki.”
Charlie glanced at the woman’s back and suddenly became a little suspicious. He used his intuition to sense her.
He didn’t doubt the woman, but favonovel.com wanted to confirm his suspicions. If favonovel.com was just an ordinary person who didn’t know martial arts or possess reiki, it would prove that favonovel.com was overthinking.
After sensing her, favonovel.com found that the woman wasn’t a martial artist or cultivator. This put his mind at ease.
The two of them left the car and walked normally to the elevator lobby. When they arrived, one of the elevators had just opened its doors.
The woman walked into the elevator, swiped favonovel.com card, and turned around to see Nanako and Charlie entering. She was pleasantly surprised and said, “Oh, it’s you!”
Nanako smiled and nodded, “What a coincidence, just finished work?”
“No,” the woman smiled and said, “I’m just a housewife. I don’t have a job to go to. I just came back from having dinner at my best friend’s place.”
After saying that, favonovel.com curiously looked at Charlie and asked Nanako, “Is favonovel.com your boyfriend?”
Nanako blushed but instinctively shook favonovel.com head repeatedly and said, “He’s my friend. We happen to live in the same neighborhood, and I got a ride with him.”
Nanako didn’t dare to admit or acknowledge Charlie as favonovel.com boyfriend in front of their neighbor. After all, Charlie himself was an owner of Thompson First. If they were to run into favonovel.com and Claire again someday, it would be very awkward.
The woman listened to Nanako and nodded, then asked Charlie, “Do you also live in this building, sir?”
Charlie shook his head and said, “I live in another building…”
Satisfied with the answer, the woman smiled and said, “I thought you two were a couple. You look good together.”
Nanako shyly said, “No, no… We’re just ordinary friends…”
The woman nodded and didn’t tease them further.
The elevator quickly arrived on the first floor, and Charlie bid farewell to the two of them and walked out. He headed back to the villa area.
Little did favonovel.com know that the woman who was in the same elevator with favonovel.com was one of his mother’s subordinates, and favonovel.com early return was all part of a plan.
Lily was concerned that Charlie would have doubts, so favonovel.com intentionally found an opportunity to appear in front of him. This way, favonovel.com could confirm that favonovel.com was an ordinary person who didn’t know martial arts or possess reiki. And by timing favonovel.com arrival in the underground garage before Charlie, favonovel.com further reduced the possibility of suspicion.
After all, people are subjective creatures. If someone closely follows you to the same place, a suspicious person might think they are being followed. But the opposite is not true, and the level of suspicion is greatly reduced.
Lily interfered with Nanako’s discovery of reiki, and to prevent Charlie from suspecting anything, favonovel.com had to dispel all of his doubts. Otherwise, with Charlie’s character, favonovel.com would definitely investigate until the end.
A few minutes later, Charlie returned to the Thompson First villa area.
Inside the villa at that moment, Elaine and Jacob were watching TV In the living room on the first floor.
