Investor in Charlie's Schemes Silver Griffin Spy

A rotund middle-aged man spoke in a clipped British accent. Yes, Pearson. The first teams are already out in the field.” “We’re here to finance this venture.” Pearson pursed his lips, leveling his gaze at Charlie. “Co-finance and mutually reap the rewards.” Pearson hurried out, his entourage in tow and found his way as quickly as possible to his car and driver. He waited until he was securely settled in the backseat before he called Lacey Trader, the head of the Silver Griffins. “You were right. The race is on. Protect the vault by any means necessary and do what you suggested all along. I was wrong. Send out the Silver Griffins worldwide to find whatever artifacts they can and bring them back. I’ll finance whatever you need.”

Protect the vault by any means necessary and do what you suggested all along. I was wrong. Send out the Silver Griffins worldwide to find whatever artifacts they can and bring them back. I’ll finance whatever you need.” He hung up and sat back, taking in a deep breath. He reached into the side pocket of the door and pulled out the long, elegant wooden case, opening it up and pulling out the rosewood wand. He touched the tip to the thumb drive extracting the information and tapped the closed laptop in front of him. “Send it to Lacey.” He touched the wand to the thumb drive again, turning it to dust. Thirty years of being undercover as a Wizard among the more influential humans was paying off. “Everything alright, Boss?” The young Wizard looked in the rearview mirror at Pearson. “Yes, Manfreid, it’s unfortunately going just as we predicted.” And we’ll do our best to control this crash as much as we can.
