The Charismatic Charlie Wade

The window of the Mercedes-Benz was wound down. Charlie peered at the man behind the window and instantly recognized him.

He was Jeff Mowry, the guy who had taken the liberty to organize today’s gathering in their messenger group.

Jeff laughed pompously. “I just got it two days ago.”
