The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Lord Bank’s transformation caught them off guard.

To most members of the Banks Family, Lord Banks was like a foul-smelling stone in a latrine, unyielding and pungent.

Nobody had ever dared to question his authority in the family and he never showed deference to anyone.

However, this time, Lord Banks displayed an unexpected sense of self-awareness and a willingness to change his ways.

Upon arriving at Shangri-La, Lord Banks sought out Xion with the accompaniment of Zayne and Kairi.

He then offered a sincere apology to Xion, pleading for her forgiveness.

With a slight bow, he spoke to Xion, “Xion, Grandpa has wronged you deeply in the past.

He has betrayed you numerous times for the sake of the Banks Family’s gain.

Now, Grandpa dares not ask for your forgiveness, but I hope you can find it in your heart to accept my sincerest apologies.”

Xion was taken aback when Lord Banks took the initiative to apologize.

As she thought about how he never acknowledged his illegitimate daughter, her own mother and refused to treat her as a granddaughter, Xion couldn’t help but feel a pang of resentment.

Recalling the times when the Banks Family had abandoned her and even left her for dead at the hands of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, Xion’s eyes welled up with tears.

Despite her tears, she spoke generously to Lord Banks, “You’ve paid the price for your past actions and I don’t hold it against you anymore.”

As Xion wept, Lord Banks felt ashamed and remorseful for his past actions.

Thankfully, Xion was willing to forgive him, which was all he had ever wanted.

Zayne then called Zara to inform her that Lord Banks wanted to visit Deana.

Upon hearing this, Deana graciously extended a warm welcome.

Initially, Zayne had planned to accompany Lord Banks, but Lord Banks cautioned him in a hushed tone, “Zayne, now that you’re engaged to Kairi, you must keep your distance from Deana and not make Kairi feel uncomfortable.
