The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Zachary’s string of performances unfolded according to Rose’s master plan. It was like a symphony orchestrated by fate, with each note harmoniously played. Every night, Zachary sang and danced, indulging in a lavish lifestyle fueled by the abundance of money. Rose had devised this scheme to protect Zachary, fearing that Gideon, the ever-watchful antagonist, would unveil his true identity.

Until Gideon made his next move, Rose couldn’t afford to expose Zachary. The key was to keep him hidden, safeguarding his secrets. As long as Zachary remained discreet, Gideon would remain oblivious and the impending confrontation would be delayed. It was a strategic move, allowing Zachary to act ahead of schedule.

Meanwhile, Gideon observed Zachary from the shadows, eavesdropping on his conversations with the female publicist. His acute senses allowed him to grasp every word exchanged. The more he witnessed, the more he believed in Zachary’s character and the tales he had shared. In Gideon’s eyes, Zachary indulged in daytime wealth accumulation and nighttime revelries at nightclubs. He embraced a lifestyle of excess feasting, drinking, consorting with prostitutes and gambling all while residing in the opulent confines of a five-star hotel’s presidential suite.

These were the habits of a criminal who had amassed great fortune. Money flowed effortlessly, acquired through questionable means. It was a tempting temptation to revel in such extravagance while it lasted. With his doubts about Zachary quelled, Gideon returned to his hotel, planning to spend the next two days in meditation and practice. He aimed to unlock the full potential of the three newly acquired magical artifacts, hoping to gain greater insight.

George, always a step ahead, had his eyes fixed on Gideon’s every move. His team monitored Gideon’s hotel twenty-four hours a day, relying on municipal surveillance to track his activities. The moment Gideon left the premises, Rose would be alerted immediately.

Meanwhile, Zeba, the ever-vigilant observer, kept herself hidden from both Gideon and Bjorne. She lurked in the shadows of Aurous Hill, meticulously observing Gideon’s every action.

That night, Zeba reported everything she had witnessed to their Master, leaving him filled with puzzlement when he learned about Gideon’s acquisition of three magical artifacts. In this age of dwindling mystical treasures, such discoveries were exceptionally rare. Even the Lord’s own collection of magical artifacts was bequeathed by his Master.

The Lord himself had not Mastered the art of crafting these powerful tools. Thus, he found it perplexing that Gideon had stumbled upon three such artifacts upon arriving in Aurous Hill.
