“Uncle Orrin’s whole family?!” Charlie was taken aback and could hardly find his words.

After a long moment of silence, he finally spoke up: “Why would Uncle Orrin make such a choice? This isn’t fair to Stefanie. What kind of person am I, Charlie Wade, to let them treat me like this…” Lord Wade sighed: “At first, I was bewildered as well and I tried to advise Orrin. However, he is resolute in his decision and wishes for me to convince you. What more can I say?” Charlie, feeling anxious, responded, “This kind of issue shouldn’t be dealt with in this manner. Have they not considered the repercussions this could have on Stefanie if it gets out? Even if she steps away from the entertainment industry, she’s still the most prominent female singer, and the public and media will continuously monitor her.” Lord Wade reassured him: “You need not worry about that. Uncle Orrin has already devised a plan. He purchased an island in the Maldives to enjoy his retirement, developing it into a hotel. Now, he’s decided to stop operations and convert it into a private retreat.” “If Stefanie is expecting, he intends for you, Aunt Angie, and Stefanie to stay there for a period. A medical team will be stationed there year-round to ensure Stefanie has a safe delivery, keeping things as private as possible. Even if the world finds out after the child is born, it’s inconsequential. Uncle Orrin believes as long as no one knows you are the child’s father, it won’t affect you.” “Once the child is born, they can remain in the Maldives temporarily, returning to Eastcliff when the child is two or three, or they could directly relocate to the UK or the US. After you address the Warriors Den situation, they would bring the child to you.” Charlie immediately rejected the idea, “No, absolutely not!” Lord Wade pressed him: “Charlie, have you thought through a worst-case scenario?” “What do you mean by a worst-case scenario?” Lord Wade let out a regretful sigh, saying, “Some truths can be disheartening, but it’s essential to anticipate the worst outcomes. What if something unexpected occurs in the future? Would you want the lineage from your parents to end with you? Among the people in the Chinese community back then, who wasn’t aware of such matters?” Charlie fell silent, contemplating the weight of his grandfather’s words.

Lord Wade capitalized on the moment: “Among the forms of unfilial conduct, having no descendants is the gravest. It may not concern us if we die, but our bloodline must carry on. This is what your Uncle Orrin fears!” Charlie responded with frustration, “But what of that? When Stefanie returns with her child, how can she escape from the paparazzi? Will public scrutiny allow her any peace?” Lord Wade explained, “Once the Warriors Den is dealt with, you will have no concerns, and your true identity can be revealed. If you bestow a legitimate title upon Stefanie, most matters would be resolved.” “How can I give her that title?!” Charlie, becoming increasingly agitated, exclaimed, “I’m already married! You’ve known this for ages! On one side is my devoted wife, and on the other is the fiancée my parents arranged for me. What do you expect me to do?” Lord Wade replied earnestly: “You must understand that the world knows about your engagement to Stefanie!

She’s publicly stated she entered the entertainment industry to find her lost fiancé.

You are Bruce’s son; she is Orrin’s daughter.

The bond between Bruce Wade and Orrin Sun is well-known in the business community!

If you resolve the Warriors Den and reintegrate into the Wade family, everyone will certainly ask…” “What will they ask?” Lord Wade continued with a sigh, “They will question you about your marriage to Stefanie, who has been loyal to you for so many years, especially after you’ve avenged your grievances.”
