The Charismatic Charlie Wade

With a single glance, Jagoan immediately recognized Maria Clark. Despite her altered attire and style, Jagoan could still identify her at a glance.

Her image had lingered in his mind for such a long time. The memory of Maria was unusually vivid, something he had never experienced before with a woman he had met only once.

Maria’s extraordinary appearance, which led people to question its authenticity, was the reason behind Jagoan’s strong recollection.

The reason why Jagoan remembered her so distinctly was due to his deep regret. He regretted not inquiring about the true nature of her relationship with the Warriors Den and what knowledge she possessed about it during their encounter in Northern Europe. Furthermore, there was another factor that prevented him from forgetting Maria, the ring that was currently dancing wildly in his pocket!

Every time the ring performed its absorbing routine, drawing in copious amounts of spiritual energy, Maria would involuntarily cross his mind. Whenever that mischievous ring twirled within his pocket, he would subconsciously think of her. However, he had never imagined that he would see her again!

Moreover, he never dreamt that Maria, who was supposed to be on the run, would appear in Aurous Hill. And now, she suddenly stood at the doorway of Claudia’s bedroom.

In that moment, alongside his astonishment and bewilderment, Jagoan’s vigilance soared.

He couldn’t help but wonder if Maria’s unexpected appearance was somehow related to him. If that were the case, it would mean that his attempts to implant psychological hints through the use of reiki had been ineffective.

Could it really be just a coincidence that a girl, whose memory he had erased before parting ways in Northern Europe, could suddenly appear in Aurous Hill, thousands of miles away, right in front of him without any recollection of him?

Despite maintaining a composed demeanor, Maria felt an intense nervousness within her. She knew that her presence in front of Jagoan would undoubtedly raise suspicions.

In order to avoid any slip-ups, she relied on her well-practiced acting skills and asked with a smile, “Excuse me, is this Room 301?”

Lisa, who was standing nearby, responded eagerly, “Yes, this is Room 301. There’s a sign on the door. Are you going to be staying in this room too?”

Maria avoided looking at Jagoan and turned her gaze toward Lisa.

She smiled shyly and replied, “I noticed the dormitory number, but there were already people inside, so I wanted to confirm it again.”

Lisa quickly inquired, “In that case, you must be the roommate for Bed 02, right?”
