Chapter 1006

Penulis: Lord Leaf
Jacob exclaimed restlessly, “Two years is too long! That shrew still doesn’t know that Matilda is back and I can’t hide it for long. What I was thinking is to divorce her first before she knows about Matilda.”

Then, he sighed and said in a somewhat depressing tone, “You also heard what the shrew said yesterday. She threatened that she wouldn’t let me off the hook so easily if I have another woman. I’m afraid that she’ll go after Matilda if she learns about her! Matilda is so gentle, dignified, and has such a mild temperament, she won’t be able to withstand the shrew’s attack.”

Charlie said, “Dad, I really want to help you with this, but I’m sorry, my hands are tied. You’ll have to figure this out yourself.”

Frankly, Charlie wanted to just wipe Elaine clean off the grid. He already had this idea when that woman stole his card, but he couldn’t bear seeing Claire so upset. Otherwise, Elaine would not live another day in this world!

If he didn’t release Elaine, Jacob would have the mos

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 1007

    Charlie took out his phone and called Albert.Albert was the king of Aurous Hill’s underworld, after all. He must have a lot more informers than anyone in the city.Albert’s respectful voice sounded as soon as the call was answered. “Master Wade, what can I do for you?”Charlie said in a stern voice, “Last night in Aurous Hill Welfare Institute, there were 10 two to three-year-old children kidnapped by traffickers. You have been the king of the underworld in the city for a long time, help me find out if anyone releases any information about buying children or inquiring about children.”Many cases could be solved not because of the efficiency of the investigators or the high-tech investigative tools they were equipped with, but because the criminals left key clues in their respective groups.For example, when someone is killed, the police would start their investigation by identifying the corpse and proceeding from there, but people in the underworld would know who the victim’s ene

    Charlie nodded and said, “Good! When you get anything, let me know as soon as possible!”Albert uttered respectfully, “Okay, Master Wade!”Charlie ended the call. He calmed himself down before turning back to Mrs. Lewis and Stephanie, and said, “Mrs. Lewis, Steph, don’t worry, I’ve asked my friends to ask around. He’s quite capable and he has a lot of informers, I’m sure he’ll have some answers soon.”Mrs. Lewis blurted out, her eyes red with tears, “Charlie, thank you so much!”Charlie quickly said, “Mrs. Lewis, what are you talking about? I grew up in this orphanage and the children here are like my own brothers and sisters. Now that they’re missing, I’ll definitely do all I can to get them back!”Stephanie uttered, choking and sobbing, “Charlie, you donated so much money yesterday. On our way back, Mrs. Lewis said that they’ll install a set of CCTVs around the orphanage thanks to your donation, who knows…”Stephanie couldn’t finish her sentence before she started crying again.

    Isaac knew that Charlie must be angry about something when he heard his tone. He said without hesitation, “Okay, Mr. Wade, I’ll get it done right now!”Then, Isaac quickly asked, “Oh yes, Mr. Wade, I’ll pick you up by helicopter right now. Do I go directly to Aurous Welfare Institute?”Charlie didn’t want anyone to know about his capabilities, so he asked, “Is there any place suitable for helicopter landing near the orphanage?”Isaac was silent for a while before saying, “Yes, there is a building nearby called Golden Line Tower with a helicopter landing pad on the roof. You can go there now, I’ll set off now and will be there soon!”“Okay!” Charlie said, “Hurry!”“I’m on it, Mr. Wade!”After ending the call, Charlie turned to the ladies and said, “Mrs. Lewis, Steph, my friend may have some clues. I need to go to meet him now. Please wait patiently for my news and don’t worry.”Stephanie quickly said, “Charlie, let me go with you, please!”Charlie said, “Steph, you’d better stay

    A lot of happy families had been completely broken because of the horrid human traffickers!The most hateful thing these traffickers did to the children was after the abduction. If they sold these children to normal families who wanted children, at least the children’s lives would not be threatened. But some of them would disable the child and used them as a tool for begging on the street. It would completely ruin the child’s life!Hence, everyone in the country was watching the news closely, genuinely concerned about the ten children.Meanwhile, Charlie, who was on the roof of Golden Line Tower, wanted to save the children as soon as possible! A helicopter roared loudly from afar, rapidly approaching him.At this moment, Albert sent him a text, saying, “Master Wade, Gibson and his family had left the province, but they didn’t dare to drive on the highway. They’re on the country road, so they have only driven less than 400 kilometers.”Charlie looked at the address and found that

    At this moment, the seven adults inside the Iveco Daily van were not even aware that a dragnet was slowly approaching them and was about to catch them.In addition to the seven adults, there were ten children asleep in the van. They had not yet woken up after being drugged at midnight.There was a young man without his right arm in the front passenger seat. The man was Gibson Little.He was giggling like an excited boy and said to his brother who was behind the wheels, “Hey man, we’ll get a million dollars after the transaction!”His brother gaped in shock, “What?! Woah, are kids so expensive nowadays? Didn’t you say that they only cost tens of thousands of dollars per head?”Gibson said, “Yeah, but they were busted a while ago, remember? The Beggar Clan in Kelna Province are in shortage of children, hence the increased price.”His brother grinned delightfully, “We’re gonna be rich!”Gibson nodded excitedly and said, “After the transaction, let’s go for a vacation!”Inside Ivec

    In desperation, his last resort was Gibson, whom he had gotten to know some time ago. He had wanted to borrow three hundred thousand from him, but he didn’t expect Gibson to be short of money too at this moment.Gibson was whining and complaining about the police’s great efforts in cracking down on human trafficking that had literally restricted his family’s trafficking operation.Gibson also told him that he was looking for children all over the place to sell to the south. The prices for the children were at an all-time high now and they could make a lot of money if they could find a resource.Thinking of the infants and toddlers laying around in the orphanage, Max immediately had an evil plan in his mind.He informed Gibson of the resources and suggested that they worked together to kidnap children from the orphanage.Gibson was worried about the resources. As soon as he knew the orphanage had plenty of what he wanted, he grinned ecstatically and started hatching a plan too.Ma

    Several helicopters gathered on the outskirts of Aurous Hill and headed towards the border of the province at high speed, narrowing the distance with the target little by little.On the other hand, the white Iveco Daily was on the federal route, driving according to the speed limit. They often stumbled upon traffic congestion or red lights that limited their overall speed and traveling distance.Gibson chose the federal route instead of the highway because of one main reason, that was, the structure of the road itself.As the highway was a closed-circuit route, it would be hard for them to escape if the police marked them and set up roadblocks. However, federal routes were different. They were connected to various townships and counties, so it would be extremely hard for the police to pinpoint their location and to block their path.Besides, if they faced any problem, they could simply abandon the van and run away. Federal routes provided a lot of excellent hiding locations. They c

    The drivers behind the trucks got out of his car to check what happened, curious and angry.At this moment, a person from the fleet got off the truck and shouted using a loudspeaker, “Everyone, we have just received an urgent notice from the management that the bridge has become hazardous and there is a risk of collapse at any time. We are trying our best to repair the damage as soon as possible. For your safety, please make a detour. Thank you for your cooperation.”The drivers were blowing a gasket, but their anger dispersed in an instant upon hearing the announcement. No one doubted their credentials, especially when they saw so many heavy-duty trucks parked on the bridge. In fact, they were feeling fortunate that they had been following behind these trucks. If they had been in front of the fleet, wouldn’t they drive on this dangerous bridge?Hence, everyone quickly got back into their vehicles, turned around, and took a detour, avoiding the bridge at all costs.Behind the whe

    However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

    The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

    And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

    Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

    Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

    As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

    Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

    Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott

    Fuming, Jimmy snapped at Julien, "If you insist on playing it like that, I will call my boss, and you can talk to him yourself!"Julien chuckled. "That's unnecessary. I've never met him. He would never recognize my voice."Jimmy laughed and nodded despite himself. "Impressive—you can really come up with anything! You don't have his number because he's beneath you, you refuse to call him because he's beneath you, and when I say I'll call him for you, you say he won't recognize your voice. Well, how do you suppose we should sort this out? At least prove you're a Rothschild, or anyone could claim that they are—"Julien held up a hand to stop him. "Then, how about this? I'll ask my butler to talk to your boss."Jimmy laughed even more loudly as if it were the best joke ever. "Hahaha!!! Butler, you say?! You really know how to talk! Alright, I'll wait and see what your 'butler' can do… I mean, what you can do. We'll see whether my boss calls me!"Julien ignored him and whipped out his
