Nelson scolded angrily, “You’re willing to abort my child just because you want to survive and keep your own life? Now, you’re even thinking of using our daughter as your shield? Do you really think that I’d be fooled by you? You b*tch! Why didn’t I notice that you are the sort of person who fears death and only thinks about your own life? You’re even willing to abandon and betray your husband at a critical moment like this!”Kelly really did not expect her husband to scold her so badly at this moment.It was true that she really wanted to continue living and surviving in this world. However, what she said was not entirely unreasonable. In this case, no matter whether she chose to die or live, it was impossible for her to keep the child in her stomach anyway. If this was the case, then wouldn’t it be better for one of them to live instead of the both of them to die immediately?Therefore, she asked Nelson, “We’re both husband and wife after all. When you were pleading for my life ea
After Kelly’s death, Gibson, his family, and Max were all scared to death.In just a short period of time, two people had already died in front of them. Moreover, each of their deaths were very miserable.Everyone had initially envied the senior from the Beggar Clan who was driving the S-Class Mercedes-Benz. He had money, status and he was also driving a luxury car.However, a few minutes ago, his luxury Mercedes-Benz had also become his steel coffin.Kelly’s desperate and tragic death in front of their very eyes had also shocked their inner hearts.Charlie had a cold expression on his face as he asked Isaac, “So, where are the other core members of the Beggar Clan?”Isaac replied, “Young Master, you can rest assured. I have already notified all of our forces in Sudbury. They are already on the move and these people will be brought over here, one by one!”“Okay!” Charlie nodded before he sneered, “None of the core members of the Beggar Clan will be left alive today!”Very soon.
Isaac was shocked when he heard Charlie’s words. He really did not expect the young master’s methods to be so cruel.However, when he thought about it, this group of people were indeed doing things that were completely devoid of conscience anyway. Therefore, this method of death was actually a very fair punishment for their actions.If this scumbag had been placed in the ancient times, he would have been executed and put to death by dismembering his body.Isaac no longer had any hesitation and he hurriedly instructed the two men who were dressed in black next to him, “Both of you, go! Remember to cut the wounds more densely together!”These two men were top killers who had already killed countless numbers of people. Therefore, they were already accustomed to this kind of situation. The both of them immediately took out the knives that they had in their pockets before they walked towards Nelson with straight and expressionless emotions on their faces.Nelson, who had acted very bra
Charlie pointed his cell phone at Nelson before he asked, “What’s your name and your occupation?”Nelson trembled in fear as he said, “My name is Nelson Bishop. I am the boss of the Beggar Clan.”Charlie asked again, “What is the livelihood of the Beggar Clan?”Nelson answered truthfully, “The main business of the Beggar Clan is to pretend to be beggars and beg for money everywhere.”Charlie asked, “All of you are wearing gold and silver. Why are you pretending to be a beggar to beg for money then?”Nelson replied, “Because this is the fastest way to make money. We only need to send people out to lie down and beg in various crowded places and we will already be able to earn a high income.”Charlie asked, “Then, why did you abduct so many children?”Nelson said, “Because we found out that we could easily get double or several more times the profit if we bring a child along with us when we beg out on the streets…”Charlie continued to ask, “Then, why did you turn all these health
Therefore, the Webb family was definitely an accomplice.Charlie believed that Donald would definitely feel very, very uncomfortable as soon as he released this video.Wasn’t he trying to stand up against him?Wasn’t he secretly looking for his enemies so that he could unite them to attack him?‘I am sorry. The young master is already getting tired of waiting. So, he is going to take a shot and deal with his brother-in-law first!’So, Charlie told Isaac immediately, “Put all of the members of the Beggar Clan into that Iveco. After that, ask our men to weld the steel bars on their hands to the body of the car!”“Yes!”Isaac quickly gave an order and many men in black rushed forward immediately. Every two men grabbed one person before they dragged them all into the Iveco that no longer had a roof above it.All of the children in the Iveco were all still fast asleep and all of them had already been taken to the helicopter.The group of men continued crying and howling but the men
“What?”Max has already lived for more than twenty years. This was the most shocking sentence that he had ever heard Charlie said in his whole entire life.With bloodshot eyes, Max stared at Charlie before he muttered, “Impossible. How could that be possible? I know who you are. I’ve known you since you were a child. Your name is Charlie Wade and you are an orphan. Mrs. Lewis was the one who brought you back to the orphanage when you were eight years old. You are just a pathetic jerk who has no support and no father or mother in this society. How can you be the young master of the Wade family?”Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “I know that it is hard for you to believe this but it’s the truth. Otherwise, how else do you think I could have mobilized so many people to chase you so casually? Look at all these helicopters and these men dressed in black with live ammunition. If I were not the young master of the Wade family, you would have succeeded in your heist this time.”“But
The most painful thing in this world is to realize that it would be completely impossible for a person to catch up with their enemies even if they had several lifetimes.At this moment, Max was completely ashamed of himself!He looked at Charlie with tears in his eyes as he choked and said, “Charlie, I accept it. I really admit defeat. You can kill me. I am already sick and tired of this world and myself…Please set me free…”Charlie nodded before he looked at Max and said seriously, “Max, your crime is the lightest amongst all of the people who are going to die today. However, everyone who is going to die today had already committed a capital crime, including you. Therefore, I hope that you can be reincarnated and have a good next life!”Max smiled miserably before he said, “In my next life…after hearing your story, I suddenly have a feeling that someone like me was born with a tough life. Even if I were to be reincarnated and even if I had a next life, I might probably still be an
After Max died, Charlie suddenly felt a little sorrowful.He was not sad because he sympathized with Max. Instead, he felt that it was indeed very upsetting for a person to turn out to become the kind of person that he hated and despised the most.Max was in the prime of his youth. If he had not gone astray, he would have had the opportunity to change his own destiny. Perhaps in a few years’ time, he would have had the opportunity to marry a fair-skinned, rich, and beautiful girl, become a CEO, and reach the pinnacle of his life.However, life was like this. Some people could still get up after getting stuck in a pit but some people would never be able to get out of it after getting stuck in a pit. As he looked at the surging river, Charlie was a little upset for a moment before he said to Isaac, “Okay. Help me take the children back and bring them to the hospital for an examination to see if there is anything wrong with them. After that, you can notify someone from the orphanage
Charlie shook his head. "It's alright, Dad. You can go ahead if you're busy—I can pick up Claire on my own.""No way!" Elaine promptly snapped. "It's been so long since she came back. We are all going to the airport!"Jacob sighed in exasperation. "Well, I'm sticking to my schedule—first the Calligraphy and Painting Association, then I'll be back an hour before to pick you guys up before going together to the airport."Elaine was left fuming. "Is there no getting through to you? You really have to go to that stupid association, don't you? Okay, fine. If you must go, I will be going with you!""You're their honored vice president who will be promoted to president soon, no? As Mrs. Vice President and the future Mrs. President, is there an issue if I went for a look?"Jacob shuddered at the thought of Elaine going to the Calligraphy and Painting Association as he absolutely didn't want her to humiliate him with her antics. People would talk, asking how a proper gentleman like him c
Jacob yawned, stretching his arms and smacking his cheeks, before finally retorting in contempt, "For Pete's sake, woman—don't make dissing me a habit. Or does it please you so much?"Elaine pursed her lips. "You call that dissing? It's all facts—do you think I don't know you? Tell me, what qualifications do you have? Your knowledge about calligraphy is skin-deep, and even the frauds working on Antique Street could beat you.""Only you would have the audacity to take the role of vice president at the Calligraphy and Painting Association—heaven's above, how blind is the president to appoint you as his second fiddle? Still, you'll be packing your things as soon as he realizes the truth.""Oh, Elaine, poor Elaine…" Jacob grinned smugly at her right then. "I'm afraid things won't go the way you want. Mr. Bay's been chasing a promotion lately, and once he gets it, I will take his place as president. That means I'll be the top dog instead of second fiddle!""Bullshit!" Elaine snapped in
Jacob slept in the next day while Elaine got out of bed past ten as well.However, in the case of the latter, she wasn't drunk and was simply watching livestreams and video clips on her phone—a hobby she had picked up recently.As for Charlie, he had initially planned to visit the Champs Elys hot spring villa and train Nanako in her Reiki control. However, since Claire would be arriving in the afternoon, he stayed home, planning to leave for the airport when it was time.Elaine appeared groggy as she emerged from the elevator, rubbing her eyes while holding her phone in the other hand.Seeing Charlie cleaning the living room, she asked in curiosity, "Not going out today, Charlie? Aren't you usually going out to meet clients?"Then, she became concerned in an instant, "Wait, don't tell me—the Feng Shui business is falling off? Are we going to be affected altogether?"Charlie laughed. "You're just getting paranoid now. Things are going fine—I'm just giving myself a day's leave.""
"Anyway, we have an issue," Helena continued. "Two days ago, Nvidia launched the B100 processor, their latest product, just two hours ago—a next-generation chip that will outperform our H100 considerably. I've instructed Harrison to pull some strings and preorder a batch from Nvidia before the B100 hits the market, at least ensuring that we can get our hands on 20,000 in the first quarter when the B100 circulates."Charlie asked, "What are Harrison's thoughts on the matter?" "Of course that old fox is going to be reluctant," Helena snorted. "But with the B100's processing strength outclassing the H100's, many AI institutions and multimedia giants are waiting with their wallets wide open. He's complaining that after pulling strings to get his hands on so many H100s, he is too embarrassed to do it again for the B100.""Bullshit," Charlie chuckled. "He's just not keen on us raising our prices after that previous agreement.""Exactly," Helena laughed as well. "He's about the shrewdest
By the time Jacob was sent home, he was almost passed out drunk.As Charlie took him off Walker's hands, Jacob's eyelids were but narrow slits.With his rough facial features, his flushed cheeks, and that strange smile of his, he looked just like those sleazy middle-aged men often seen in animated cartoons.Still, seeing that Charlie had come out of the house to get him, he chuckled drunkenly, "D-Dear boy… Your dad… was so amazing!"Charlie shook his head in exasperation. "You're drunk, Dad—get some rest already. Otherwise, you might wake Mom up and get an earful for this.""Earful?" Jacob's eyes widened ferociously as he snorted, "S-She'd never dare!"Charlie chuckled as he said quietly, "Come on, keep it down—Elaine is plenty daring. And in your state, you stand no chance if she starts to beat you."Despite being drunk a second ago, Jacob suddenly shuddered from the shiver running down his spine, and he promptly corrected himself, "A gentleman… never lays a hand on a woman! T-
Naturally, neither Mr. Bay nor Hal argued with this, thus following Albert and Jacob to the Diamond Room—the grandest room of Heaven Springs.After Albert led the trio there and smiled, "Gentlemen, if you would please take your seats, my people will be delivering Big Red Robe tea and our menu to your table shortly. I've spoken to the kitchen as well, and they will be preparing appetizers first. Please feel free to enjoy a game of poker until everyone arrives, and the main courses will be delivered right away."His arrangement was utterly detailed, and the trio were awash with gratitude.Hal and Mr. Bay especially were looking upon Jacob worshipfully, as if he was an unassuming bigwig on Charlie's level.Soon, as the invited guests arrived, Albert personally brought two bottles of 3-liter Moutai that cost an arm and leg to the Diamond Room.For politeness's sake, Hal ordered two more bottles of one-liter Moutai, meaning that it was one liter for the eight persons in attendance.Th
Don Albert was waiting at the front doors of Heaven Springs when Jacob's Cullinan arrived.He was absolutely enthusiastic in welcoming the man, even stroking his ego as much as possible as he knew Jacob and his vanity—which made that a must.Hence, as soon as Jacob stopped the Cullinan, Don Albert and the manager of Heaven Springs were immediately on hand to receive him.Mr. Bay was riding shotgun but recognized Albert right away, exclaiming, "Shit, he's coming personally to receive you too?"Jacob chuckled. "Well, he and my son-in-law have a lot of respect for each other, so I guess that respect is extended to us as well."As they spoke, Albert had reached the Cullinan and opened the door for Albert, nodding at him respectfully, "Greetings, Mr. Wilson. You can leave the keys with Mr. Carson while I escort you and your friend upstairs.""Thank you very much." Jacob grinned and turned to Mr. Bay. "Come on. Let's go.""Yes, yes, of course!" Mr. Bay smiled and nodded, a little nerv
Mr. Bay's friend promptly asked, "Was it the manager, Mr. Carson?""Nope," Mr. Bay chuckled. "Guess again.""Oh, come on!" Mr. Bay's friend whined. "You're still telling me to guess now? Just so you know, those bigwigs were so pleased when I told them we'd have the Golden Room and said they'd be bringing their cards. I'd be laughed at if I didn't give them the details right now!"Mr. Bay laughed. "Alright, alright, I'll quit being mysterious—it's Jacob Wilson, my vice president. He contacted Don Albert of Heaven Springs personally, and the man promised you the Diamond Room and the finest wines of his cellar!""Holy shit!" Mr. Bay's friend gasped. "Mr. Wilson did? For real?! And the Diamond Room on top of that?!""Indeed," Mr. Bay nodded. "And you know me. Would I kid when it comes to such matters?"Mr. Bay's friend breathed a long sigh as if he had just cheated death. "Heavens… Thank you so much, my friend! You've really saved my skin there! You have no idea how much persuasion t
Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim
