Chapter 7075
Charlie’s words secretly worried Maria.
Although few people knew of Master Jing Qing’s identity as a cultivator,
He was still quite well-known in the Buddhist field as a highly accomplished monk.
Once he returned to the country, his whereabouts would certainly not escape Charlie’s notice.
In that case, if Charlie confronted him,
He might be able to learn from him that his mother,
Margaret was still alive.
During a long talk with Margaret, she had mentioned that the reason she couldn’t acknowledge Charlie was that.
It was because Victoria had always suspected she wasn’t dead.
That’s why, after Margaret faked her death,
She planted the scholar in the An family to spy.
Moreover, in Victoria’s eyes, Margaret was the real threat;
Charlie, the boy who had been missing since he was eight, was nothing to fear.
Therefore, Margaret felt that if she acknowledged Charlie,
It wouldn’t help his path of revenge.
On the contrary, it might be extremely detrimental to him.
Maria agreed with this.
Margaret has been able to maintain her safety all these years because she hasn’t spread the news that she’s still alive.
Her subordinates are almost all from Changying’s old guard.
The few young people she has are all children of these veterans,
With impeccable backgrounds and impeccable credentials.
Maria, on the other hand, failed to do the same,
This led to problems within her team.
Given this situation, Margaret naturally can’t let Charlie know she’s still alive.
Otherwise, given Charlie’s personality, he’ll definitely want to reunite with his mother, putting both mother and son in danger.
Therefore, Maria believes she must tell Margaret that Jing Qing shouldn’t return to the country,
And even less should Jing Qing continue to appear in public.
Otherwise, if Charlie finds Jing Qing, things will spiral out of control.
However, Maria also worries about something else.
Charlie just shared his analysis with her.
If Jing Qing disappears immediately afterward, Charlie will definitely suspect her.
Although she was immune to his psychological manipulation,
She couldn’t bear to lie to him.
If he confronted her and she forced herself to lie,
Even if Charlie didn’t completely break off relations,
An irreparable rift and estrangement would inevitably form between them.
Given her genuine feelings for Charlie,
She naturally didn’t want them to end up in that situation.
So, how could she achieve the best for both of them?
Maria fell into deep thought.
Seeing that she remained silent, Charlie couldn’t help but ask,
“What are you thinking about, Miss Lin?”
Maria pursed her lips and said,
“I’m thinking about your cultivation, Young Master.”
“My cultivation?”
Charlie asked in confusion,
“Is there anything that worries you, Miss Lin?”
Maria said, “You’ve been in seclusion for over ten days.”
“And even today, when you emerged, you didn’t mention anything about your cultivation.”
“I suppose your seclusion these past few days hasn’t yielded much, has it?”
Charlie was slightly taken aback and awkwardly chuckled,
“That’s right. I couldn’t concentrate,”
“So my seclusion was futile.”
“I didn’t gain anything.”
Maria asked him, “Didn’t you try that ring?”
“Or perhaps the hand seals you learned under the Northern Lights in Northern Europe that day?”
“Uh…no…” Charlie, like a child caught doing homework by the teacher, said guiltily,
“To be honest, I couldn’t calm my mind during my seclusion.”
“So I didn’t concentrate on tackling these two things.”
Maria sighed and said, “Young Master,”
“No matter who is behind Master Jingqing and Steward Tang,”
“They are definitely your comrades.”
“As you said, cultivators are extremely secretive about their identities.”
“Master Jingqing was willing to risk enlightening Miss Ito,”
“Which must mean he felt that enlightening Miss Ito would be of some help to you.”
“So even if it meant risking his life, he was willing to lend you a hand.”
“Why do you need to pry into his background?”
“If you find him, given that you are both cultivators, the chance of one cultivator being exposed is not that great.”
“But if two cultivators meet, the chance of exposure will increase exponentially. What good would that do?”
