The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Director Ledger was taken aback when he heard Maria’s words and quickly asked, “Miss Clark, what’s the matter?”
Maria pointed to the application form in his hand and said, “Can you show it to me?”
Director Ledger said without hesitation, “Of course!”
He handed the application form to Maria.
However, in his mind, he couldn’t help but think, “I wanted to show it to you just now, but you said no need... Young people at
this age are really quick to change their minds...”
Maria took Claudia’s application form and began to look through it.
Her eyes seemed to be browsing her personal information, but her peripheral vision and attention were all focused on the
emergency contact column.
In the space in that column, there was a name lingering on her mind all this time, Charlie Wade!
In addition to the two words, there was also a string of 11 digits.
Maria knew that this must be Charlie’s phone number in China.
At this time, Maria felt her breathing suddenly become rapid and her heartbeat speed also increase a lot.
It was the first time that she, who had always been poised and calm, felt such a sense of excitement and tension.
There seemed to be fine beads of sweat in her tender palms.
She didn’t know if this Charlie was the Charlie she was looking for.
However, when she saw Charlie’s name when she first arrived in Aurous Hill, she felt like she was divinely assisted or destined.
Therefore, her intuition could almost conclude that this Charlie Wade should be the Charlie Wade she was looking for.
So, she immediately memorized Charlie’s cell phone number and quickly tried to recite it a few times.
After confirming that she had memorized the eleven digits in her mind, she wrote down Claudia’s mailing address.

Afterward, she returned the form to Director Ledger without showing any signs of expression and said casually, “The same
person left her hometown to study in Aurous Hill, so a reason to be friends.”
Then, she asked Director Ledger, “Does this girl live on campus?”
Director Ledger responded quickly to Maria’s request, saying, “She should be able to live on campus, but most of the time she is
a day student.
She has family in Aurous Hill and usually stays with them.”
Maria nodded and said, “I understand.
My cousin’s great-grandfather has property in Aurous Hill, but I won’t need to rely on him often.
Can you also arrange a room for me? It will be more convenient in the future.”
Director Ledger smiled and replied, “Absolutely! It’s best to live on campus for flexibility.
Our dormitories for foreign students are set up for two people per room.
How about I place you and this girl in the same dormitory? You both have the same major and your registration is next to each
other.
That’s usually how we arrange things.”
Maria agreed readily, “That works for me.
It’s settled then.”
She then remembered something else and added, “Just one more thing, please don’t tell this girl that I read her information and
planned to live in the same dormitory as her.
It may give off the wrong impression and make it harder to naturally make friends with her in the future.”
Director Ledger and the others agreed to keep it a secret.
As Maria was Larry’s distant great-granddaughter, her presence in Aurous Hill was of great importance to everyone and her well
being was entrusted to the school by Larry himself.

Thus, when Maria expressed her request, it was natural for everyone to comply.
Maria let out a sigh of relief and gave a small smile.
She said, “You all can continue your discussion, I’ll go take a look around the campus.”
She then turned to Larry and said, “Grandpa, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading out now.”
Larry, who had intended to see her off, was reminded by his wife and he said, “Okay, you can go ahead.”
Maria nodded, and then left the room.
