Jasmine said, “Please speak up, Mr. Christian.”
Christian said, “I have a nephew who has been missing for twenty years now. His name is Charlie Wade, and he’s twenty-eight years old this year. He is the only son of my sister, Ashley, and my brother-in-law, Curtis. The Ackers have been searching all over the world for him for twenty years, but we have always been unable to find him. Since our benefactor is so powerful, please ask him to help us find Charlie’s whereabouts on the account that my parents are already old and are eager to see their grandson. Once we find Charlie, the Ackers will definitely give half of our family’s assets to him!”
Jasmine was stunned when she heard this. She did not expect that the Ackers would be willing to give up half of their family assets in order to find Charlie.
However, Christian and the Ackers were not making empty promises. Before Christian had gone over, the Ackers had held a family meeting to discuss this matter. Judging from the situation of the Ackers, if the Qing Eliminating Society refused to let them go, the Ackers would be doomed in the future even if they were safe for the time being. After all, there was a huge disparity in strength between both sides, and the Ackers had no chance of winning at all.
In the Ackers’ opinion, the person who could most likely save them from being wiped out by the Qing Eliminating Society was the mysterious benefactor who had saved a dozen of the Acker family members in New York that day.
As long as it could be confirmed that their benefactor was the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill, the Ackers would not only be protected in crisis, but Keith’s condition would have the greatest chance of being completely cured as well.
In that case, this person was the key to the survival of the Ackers.
