The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Inspired by Dorothy's speech, Quinn trotted back to her private lounge alone with her cell phone. There, she immediately called Charlie.

At that moment, Charlie was lying on the recliner sofa in the hotel. He was bored out of his mind.

Claire had gone to class, so he was left alone in the hotel with nothing to do. He was dying from the sheer boredom.

Porter's subordinates had arrived in New York one after the other, but they still couldn't find any clues related to Finley. He seemed to have disappeared without a trace, not even leaving his scent behind.

Upon realizing that Quinn was calling him, he pressed the answer button immediately to answer the call.

Quinn's sweet voice reached his ears." Brother Charlie, are you busy?"

"No..." Charlie stretched his back and laughed. "I'm just being lazy. What's up? Is there something wrong?"

Quinn said in a somewhat coquettish tone," It's like this, Brother Charlie... I'll be going to the United States soon, and the New York Oskian Chamber of Commerce happens to be hosting a charity dinner. They're inviting me to attend the dinner." "A charity dinner...?" Charlie didn't think much about it. Smiling, he said, "You can go if you have time, but you should find a reason to decline and turn them down if you don't, or if you're too tired."

Quinn hurriedly said, "Actually, I do want to go. The theme of this charity dinner is very meaningful. It's established for the Oskian orphans in North America."

"Oh..." Charlie laughed again. "It does sound rather meaningful, but you also need to consider your own circumstances.

Careful not to burden yourself too much."

Quinn's voice became much smaller as she went on shyly, "Brother Charlie... I'm calling because I want to ask if you have the time to accompany me to the dinner. It'll be held on the eleventh. Anyway, you're not too far from New York." When Charlie heard Quinn's request, his first instinct was to politely decline.

Quinn was a big celebrity, and the charity dinner was a public occasion. If

her, it accompanied

inevitably lead to media

reports and speculations. All onet

them might end up being very troublesome. It was too much of a

hassle for him.

Quinn seemed to have guessed what Charlie was worried about, so she hurriedly said, "Brother Charlie! If you're worried about media exposure, I can talk to the organizer and ask them not to invite any media to the site on that day."

As Charlie was still hesitating, Quinn

added sweetly, "Brother Charlie,

please, just come with me. If you're worried that it'll take too long, I can get someone to arrange a helicopter for you. One hour is enough to get you from your place to New York. A round trip will only take two hours. Since you're attending the charity dinner with me, you'll only need to spare about four hours of your time for me. I won't make you delay any of your business.

Please...?"novelbin

Charlie was a little uncertain. He suddenly thought about Finley's odd disappearance and unknown

whereabouts in New York. For some reason, he found himself concerned for Quinn's safety. He pondered about it briefly before relenting, saying," Alright, then. I'll accompany you."

When Quinn heard this, she cheered in joy. "That's great! Thank you, Brother Charlie! I love you!"

Charlie said helplessly, "It's just a small thing, so there's no need to thank me."

He also added, "By the way, Nana. Help me ask around if there's anyone familiar with the Acker family in the Oskian Chamber of Commerce. If there's one, I'll have to disguise myself a little. I don't want to attract any trouble." Quinn said eagerly, "I'll ask right now!" Very soon, Quinn received a clear reply from her father's old friend.

Given the influence of the Acker family in the whole of North America, if there was really someone in the association who was very close to them, everyone would already be buttering up to him to the high heavens.
