Chapter 361
Charlotte still didn't quite understand what Braden meant, but Shane seemed to understand it clearly. Therefore, she felt it wasn't a big issue if she didn't.
After he kept them guessing for a long time, Braden only started to tell them what he did. In the last three days, Caleb had already thought of him as a brother. Anne couldn't stop laughing. "You can't imagine how excited Caleb is to meet Shane and become sworn brothers."
"What did you say to Caleb?" There were countless questions on Charlotte's mind. Braden only told them what he had done and not what he had said. However, the things he said were the most crucial part of this.
Braden definitely wouldn't tell Charlotte and Shane that he almost sold them out. He just smiled mysteriously and continued, "In short, Caleb is going to discuss working with you now. I've already provided you with the pen and paper, it's up to you to draw it.
"We've also thought about working with Caleb but our current relationship with them is very awkward. I'm afraid they'll have doubts," Charlotte said. "After all, the best strategy is to keep your enemies close. Initially, Shane and I planned to cut off their logistics and see their response. Then, we'll decide if we want to set up a meeting with them. I didn't expect you to take care of that for us."
Braden laughed, "Of course. Don't you see who I am, and how powerful I am?"
Charlotte sighed, "You're quite formidable but once you did this, we have no way to retreat. We have to go through it to the end. Originally, my plan was to play the long game which would be around three to four years. But now I think the victor would be decided in half a year. It's either we end them or they end us, it's not necessarily good for us."
She and Avery had been planning for the long run so they were not in a hurry to attack the Steven Family. She also wanted to destroy such a big family within a day but where would she get the
money and opportunity from?"
"I know." Braden smiled. "So my idea is this, we have to make it seem like we're close to the Steven Family but we'll sell their information to Avery. Then we tell the Stevens family of this through other means and let Rick take Kendall and Avery for a meal. Don't you think the Stevens family will get mad?" "So what you're saying is..." "If the Steven Family is angry, who do you think they would work with in a rage?"
Christopher Gibson.
Charlotte immediately came up with the answer.
Braden knew that both Charlotte and Shane were smarter than him so he didn't need to keep them guessing. He immediately told them his idea in a breath, "In that case, we all know what would happen once he works with Christopher. Now Christopher doesn't even have time for himself. If the Stevens family works with him, it might seem to be a way to defeat us but in reality they would be dragged down by Christopher."
"It's just that... would that be too cruel of us?" Charlotte was still hesitant.
"You and Anne are both worried about the same thing so I'm more concerned about Shane's thoughts. If you disprove this idea, I will forget about this."
"I'm not saying it's a bad idea..." Charlotte was helpless.
Why did Braden feel that she was disproving him?
She just thought doing this was against her principles. But she was even more aware that the Stevens family had abandoned their morality first.
"It doesn't matter."
Shane only said three words.
Obviously, both Avery and Braden only played minor roles in his plans. They wouldn't make too much of a difference. However, no one, including Charlotte, knew what Shane's plan was.
"Then the two of you..." Braden turned his head around to look at Charlotte and Anne.
"I am very against it. We can't turn ourselves into rogues just because we want to deal with one." Anne's opinion was very simple.
"Well, let's go and discuss it with Avery. He's the one who hates the Steven Family the most."
Braden could accept this explanation. He nodded and said, "Let's set up a meeting with Avery. I suspect the Steven Family is keeping an eye on me. You can meet up with him at one place then I'll follow behind."
"Alright."
Charlotte immediately called Avery. Before she could say anything, Avery said she called just in time as Olive wanted to see her.
Charlotte thought about it and decided to meet up at an amusement park.
This way it was normal for Avery to go to an amusement park since he has a child. Secondly, the amusement park would be crowded so they could easily spot if the same group of people was following them.
Third of all, some places in the amusement park were completely closed off. There were only security cameras at the entrances and exits of the park. The facilities inside were free of cameras so it would be easy for them to hide themselves.
That way, Olive and Sheryl could also spend some time together.
"You're taking the children with you?" Braden was confused. "It's already dangerous enough that we want to meet in secret, you actually want to take two children with you?"
"That way, we won't be suspected. You can't deny that." All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
This...
Braden licked his lips. It seemed reasonable but he was still worried about the safety of the two children. He was silent for a long time before he continued, "Well, when we finished talking, we can also have a date at the park. It has been a while since I last went on a date with Anne."
They haven't dated in a long time? Charlotte looked at Anne teasingly as Anne fumed, "What? Do you go on dates with Shane all the time?"
"Yeah." Charlotte answered matter-of-factly, "We date every day." "Speak human words..."
Charlotte smiled.
After the matter was decided, Charlotte and Avery decided on a time which was tomorrow morning. Avery would bring Olive first, then Charlotte and Shane would go with Sheryl while Braden and Anne would reach around lunchtime.
In the early morning, Avery and Olive had looked through the rides at the amusement parks. They had made a detailed plan on all the rides they wanted to go on.
"I will definitely talk about business with them. You can go alone, right?" Avery asked Olive.
"No problem."
"You can pay for most of the rides with your phone. I've taught you before. Here's an extra 200 dollars in cash. Put it in your bag and don't take it out. Go on the rides according to our plans. Wait for me at the gate we've decided at 8.30 during the firework show. Understood?"
"I have a phone. I'll call you if I get lost." Olive felt Avery was very talkative today. She didn't need him to be so detailed.
She could even deliver goods on her own, not to mention being alone at an amusement park. She had learned a lot from the construction workers during her time with them, so she had no problem doing so.
Avery looked at her intensely. He knew her small body harnessed the courage greater than most adults but...
He was still worried about her.
He just said, "You have to be careful."
"Don't worry. If I need you to worry about me like other children, you wouldn't have to adopt me," Olive said, pouting her lips obviously unhappy with his nagging.
Avery sighed and rubbed his temples, "I've been getting along with you for the past two days. I think that you're a good kid, so I'm concerned about you. Can't you appreciate that?"
"Thank you, Uncle Avery," Olive replied in a babylike voice.
Huh!
Avery thought that he hadn't adopted a daughter but an imp.
However, it was also quite good this way.
