Chapter 333
Confrontation Charles deeply abhorred Yareli. If it weren't for his worry for Frances, he wouldn'thave come over. Frances uttered, “If you're not going, I will.” “All right, Granny. I'll go.” Left with nochoice, Charles turned and left. Frances heaved a long sigh. Her body was getting weaker. Shesupposed she would have to hand over the Yoeger family to Charles as soon as possible.
Charles headed to Gizem'’s ward. In truth, he had a lot of questions for her. When he arrived, Gizemhappened to be resting. “Come in,” she responded calmly after she heard knocking on the door.Charles opened the door and entered the room. Gizem raised a brow. “It's you?” He beganimpassively, “What did you do to Yareli?” “Ha!” Gizem sneered. “Why don’t you ask what she did tome?” Charles stared intently at her. “I actually don't really care for any of that. I have other questionsfor you.” In fact, he didn't care if Yareli lived or died. Gizem looked at him. “What questions?”"What's your relationship with Axeworth Corporation?” Charles went straight to the point. Gizemfrowned deeply. Somehow, it seemed that many people knew about her relationship with AxeworthCorporation.
The problem was that outsiders couldn't have found out about that, unless someone in the groupleaked it. “If I told you that I have nothing to do with this corporation you mentioned, would youbelieve me?” Gizem asked coldly. Charles stared at her icily. “You don't know when to quit, do you?”Gizem knitted her brows. “These days, I've received a lot of information about you.” Charlesnarrowed his eyes. “They all show that you are heavily associated with Axeworth Corporation. Howdo you explain that?” Gizem snickered. “Information can be misleading.” “My intelligence networkhas never made mistakes,” Charles said confidently. “Do you know how much information I have?Plenty, just like snowflakes.” Gizem frowned.
“It seems that you're not exactly welcomed in Axeworth Corporation,” he mocked. Gizem's browsfurrowed again. She didn't want to answer that. Charles cast her a cold glance. “I'll just ask you onething.” Gizem’s long eyelashes trembled. “What?” “What's your master's name?” Charles inquiredsternly. “Five years ago, did he bring a woman home?” Gizem was rather stumped. This man knowsmy master! “I don't know anything.” She fiddled with her fingers. “I lost my memory.” Lost hermemory? Charles didn't buy that. “That's a lame excuse.” Right then, Gizem tore off her hyper-realistic mask, revealing the scorched face underneath. “Five years ago, I was unconscious. I wastrapped in a fire, and my face got burned. When they were trying to save me, something hit myhead. I might have woken up, but I lost my memory. Happy now?” Charles stared at Gizem's face inshock. She snapped at him, “I have nothing else to say to you! Leave!” Charles felt awkward indeed.With a horrifying face like that, life must have been difficult for her. After a moment's hesitation,Charles turned to leave. Gizem breathed a sigh of relief. Her face could certainly turn many peopleaway. She took out her phone and called her master.
"Giz, why are you calling me at this hour?” the old man grumbled. “Master, I want to ask yousomething. Who leaked my information?” Gizem was enraged. “It's barely been ten days since Icame to Chanaea. Now, Samuel and Charles both know about my connection with AxeworthCorporation!” Her master frowned. “How did they replace out?” “I'm not sure about Samuel, but Charlestold me that someone had leaked it to him on purpose,” Gizem said. “Master, if this goes on, I mighthave to go back. It's dangerous for me to stay here in Jadeborough!” She knew that Samuel andCharles had been looking for information about Axeworth Corporation all these years. However, thistime, she had been tricked. “You can't come back now,” her master said, frowning. “You haven'tfinished your mission.”
"Hal" Gizem chuckled bitterly. “How can I proceed like this? You might as well wait around to collectmy corpse!” Her master furrowed his brows. “Don’t panic. I'll send someone to look into this.” “Fine.I'll give you three days,” she said, still upset. “If you can't replace out anything, I'm coming back. I'll clearout the pests myself!” After that, she hung up. Her master realized that she was really crossed.“Come in,” he commanded in a low voice. A man entered. He was Zack Hoffman, one of the oldman’s apprentices. “Get someone to investigate and replace out who released information aboutGizem. Catch the traitor and don't let them off.” “Understood.” Zack nodded. “You may leave now,”said the old man. “Master, Raymond's here,” Zack reminded him. The master narrowed his eyes. “Tellhim to come in.” Zack nodded, then turned to leave. A moment later, Raymond came in. “It's been along time, Old Mr. Hoover.” Raymond flashed a half-smile. Hoover was the old man’s last name.However, everyone in the entire Axeworth Corporation referred to him as their leader. Others likeGizem and Zack would call him “Master.” Therefore, no one outside of Axeworth Corporation knewabout the last name of Axeworth Corporation's leader.
Theodore Hoover looked at Raymond meaningfully. “What's your business here? Haven't I told youthat I can’t cure your sickness? Just wait for death, will you?” “Haha!” Raymond laughed. “Back then,I thought I was marked for death as well, but the heavens allowed me to live a few more years. Now,I'm fit as a fiddle. It seems that they aren't ready to take me yet.” Theodore snorted. “Don’t be socheeky. They might change their mind tomorrow.” Raymond's lips curled up into a smile. “Old Mr.Hoover, I've received news.” “What kind of news?” Theodore peered at his visitor.
“I heard that five years ago, you brought back an unconscious woman.” Raymond observedTheodore's wrinkly face, hoping to spot some clues. Theodore frowned. “Says who?” “That's notimportant,” Raymond said slowly. “Kathleen suddenly died five years ago, but Charles hasn't visitedher grave at all. Don't you replace that odd?” “Don’t you know that recollection stirs emotions?”Theodore asked mockingly. “Oh, I forgot.” “Forgot what?” Raymond asked with curiosity. “You don'thave emotions!”
Theodore sneered at him. “Back then, you saw potential in Kathleen and forced her to marry one ofyour two sons. You even poisoned Charles to hold her back. Charles doesn’t know anything aboutthat, right? When he eventually replaces out, do you think you can still live?” Raymond scoffed, “Youknow lots of things, huh?” “Haha!” Theodore laughed. “Both our organizations are on the same land.For so many years, we might not be on good terms, but we don't have bad blood either. Today, youcome to confront me about something so baseless. How do you think I'd feel?”
