NovelBookCharlie slowly drove into the Aurous University of Finance and Economics. At this time, it was already the university's lunch break. Many students were walking on the campus ground. Most of them were walking toward the cafeteria and their dormitories, and sof them seemed to be heading out of the university to eat. Autumn asked Charlie, "Mr. Wade, would my father have already gone out to eat lunch? Should we contact him first?" Charlie nodded before he smiled and said, "I'll call him in a short while. You should not say anything at all." Autumn knew that Charlie simply wanted to give her father a surprise. So, she immediately agreed, "Okay..." Charlie parked the car below the administrative office building. After that, he called Yolden via WhatsApp.
As soon as the voice call request was sent, the other party answered the call immediately. Immediately after that, Yolden's voice cover the other end of the line, "Charlie, how are things over there?! Is there any progress?" Charlie replied, "Uncle Hart, you should not be so anxious. My situation is a little complicated now. I cannot explain everything to you in just a word or two." Yolden hurriedly asked, "Then, have you seen Autumn yet?" Charlie replied to him, "Not yet. The guards for the opposition force are very strict. I'm still trying to think of a way." 4 As he spoke, Charlie asked him, "Uncle Hart, have you had your lunch yet?" Yolden said emotionally, "How could I possibly have the mood to eat? I've been feeling very restless and ill at ease ever since last night. At first, I made several calls to you, but it showed that it was not within the service area. It was probably because there was no signal on your end, right?" Charlie explained, "There is indeed no communication signal here. So, I could not make or receive calls normally. However, I have a satellite intedevice here, and I can be connected to Whatvia the satellite signal. It's just that the data rate is a little expensive." Yolden did not notice anything abnormal, and he could not help but sigh as he said emotionally, "I really have to trouble you a lot because of this matter... Regardless of whether you'll have an opportunity to see Autumn in the future or regardless of whether you'll have an opportunity to rescue her, you must ensure your own personal safety." Charlie smiled as he said, "Uncle Hart, don't worry. I'll certainly bring your daughter safely back to the country." As he spoke, Charlie hurriedly said, "Uncle Hart, I'll hang up the phone first. I'll update you again when there is any progress." Yolden could only say, "Then, you have to pay attention to your own safety." Charlie then ended the voice call. At this time, Autumn, who was beside him, could not help but ask him, "What should we do now?" Charlie turned off the car engine before he took out two disposable masks. After putting a mask on, he said to Autumn, "Put on the mask. We'll head to your father's office directly. He'll certainly be there." Autumn knew that Charlie wanted to give her father a surprise, but she laughed as she said, "Do you honestly think that my father would not be able to recognizeif I put on a mask?" Charlie laughed and said, "I dare to bet that your father would not be able to recognize you as long as you do not say anything at all." "Impossible." Autumn shook her head before she said confidently, "Even if my father and I are not on good talking terms, that does not mean that our relationship is very tensed. He would certainly be able to recognizeat one glance." Charlie smiled slightly before he said, "Why don't you try it if you don't believe me? You can go and knock on his door directly later and see if he'll be able to recognize you." Autumn pouted as she said, "Okay! The loser will have to buy the winner a meal!" After she was done speaking, Autumn immediately cooperated with Charlie as she put on her mask.
Then, the both of them got out of the car and walked into the office building directly. Autumn walked beside Charlie, and she asked nervously in a low voice, "Do you know where my father's office is at? I've never even been here once before." Charlie nodded. "I know. You can just rest assured and followwith boldness and confidence." At this time, Yolden was pacing back and forth in his office. 3
His only daughter was far away in Syria, and her life and death were still uncertain. So, he was naturally very worried. Moreover, Charlie had not given him a clear reply on the progress. So, Yolden did not know whether his daughter would be able to escape the disaster.
It was also because he had been feeling very sick with worry deep down in his heart, so Yolden had m been repeatedly distracted, and he had made many mistakes during his class today.
