Chapter 1042

Author: Lord Leaf
Some companies with a market value of more than ten billion dollars could drop until it was only left with a market value of a few hundred million dollars. This meant that their assets would have shrunk by more than ninety percent!

Some companies could even fall into bankruptcy because of a small problem with their manufactured products. However, what was this compared to the charges faced by the Webb family now?

This time, the Webb family might have to be the scapegoat for Nelson’s beggar syndicate. All the unconscientious things that he had done would eventually be pinned on the Webb family!

Donald was extremely nervous at this time. This was because he knew very well in his heart that the Webb family was facing a huge crisis and disaster this time!

So, he immediately told his assistant, “Issue a statement immediately under the name of the group. State that even though Nelson was indeed my brother-in-law, the Webb family had no knowledge of what Nelson was doing or what he was in

    As the Webb family was getting scolded on the Internet, Webb Group has already published their statement through various channels.However, all the netizens could see that this was just a statement to disassociate themselves so they could shift the blame away from them.Everyone knew that it was completely impossible for a capable person such as Donald not to know anything about his brother-in-law’s occupation.There was no credibility in the statement at all since he was coming out to whitewash himself at a time like this. Moreover, many people on the Internet had already looked through Nelson’s life experiences.The Bishop family was originally a poor family in the South Region. They did not have much money and they were not a flourishing and prosperous family.It wasn’t until Alice, the daughter of the Bishop family, married Donald that the lives of the Bishop family finally got better.However, Alice’s parents did not have a good life. Both of them had passed away from canc

    Later, he got connected to the Webb family by chance.Earlier, Sean’s younger brother, Kian, was exposed online because he had given young girls some psychological hints and had induced another girl to jump off the building.At that time, the Webb family had asked this shill to come forward. They had asked the shill to counterattack and twist the facts so that it seemed as though the young girl was greedy for vanity and was trying to marry into a wealthy family even though Kian was the one who had forced the young girl to kill herself. They wanted to make it seem as though the young girl threatened to jump off the building when she failed to pursue Kian before she died accidentally.At that time, the shill used his shameless and powerful forces to twist and turn the truth on the Internet. They convinced the netizens to mistakenly believe that the young girl was simply suffering the consequences of her own actions. In the end, a large number of netizens scolded the young girl on the

    The shill named ‘Know One’s Place and Abide by the Law’ was nothing but a shameless and ordinary person.Although he had some ability to call out the shills, he was a transparent person in front of a real top hacker.After the hacker hacked into his computer, he had immediately obtained and investigated every detail of his personal information.First of all, this person was from Hovemar Province and his home was located in Liebatral.Secondly, this person had indeed received twenty million dollars cash that had just been remitted to him by the Webb family.Again, this man had stupidly used his own bank card to collect the money.The hacker also found out the chat history between this shill and the Webb family.In the chat history, Sean had asked him if he would be able to help to whitewash the Webb family. The shill immediately replied that he had ten thousand ways to help the Webb family to whitewash themselves. Moreover, he had also stated that he had already done this more th

    One of the men dressed in black approached him in a few steps before he held a pistol against his forehead as he asked in a cold voice, “Are you ‘Know One’s Place and Abide by the Law’?”The leader of the shills was so scared that he hurriedly said, “I’m not! I’m not! I don’t understand what you are talking about. Who are you guys?”The man in black replied coldly, “You will find out who we are soon. Come with us!”The leader of the shills hurriedly shouted, “Come with you! Why did you break into my house? If you refuse to leave, I’ll call the police!”Two men in black stepped forward directly. One of them grabbed his two arms and twisted it back before the other man broke his arms directly.The leader of the shills screamed out in pain but the other party did not intend to spare him. He aimed directly downwards at a forty-five degree angle before he kicked both of his knees directly with the sole of his feet and broke his knees immediately.The leader of the shills almost fainte

    Sean felt seriously wronged.He had only wanted to help and share his father’s burden. However, he really did not expect the leader of the shills to be so unreliable!He was not only unreliable but he even dared to betray him!He was extremely angry and he said to Donald, “Dad! The leader of the shills has already taken my money and he actually dares to expose me? I’m going to destroy him!”Donald replied coldly, “You’re really extraordinarily stupid! How can an ordinary shill like him actually have the audacity to fight and go against the Webb family? It must be the person behind this matter who is toying with us!”Sean hurriedly asked, “Dad, who do you think did this? Who would be so bold to kill Uncle and all the core members of the Beggar Clan, and even dare to openly confront the Webb family?”Donald gritted his teeth as he said, “I’m also considering and thinking about this issue. However, I really can’t think of anyone who is that powerful or capable. After all, we’ve alre

    Donald had a shocked expression on his face. He hesitated for a moment before he waved his hand and said, “No, it is still impossible. It’s simply impossible for a member of the Wade family to be a live-in son-in-law of a small family in Aurous Hill! That would be too insulting and degrading! It wouldn’t only be impossible for the Wade family, but even for the Webb family that is less than one-tenth of the Wade family, it would be absolutely impossible for me to allow you or your brother to go to Aurous Hill to become the son-in-law of a pathetic family! That isn’t in line with common sense at all!”Sean frowned before he said, “How can we deliberate this matter then? There isn’t a way for us to elaborate any further on this matter. Does this have anything to do with Charlie?”Donald said, “I suspect that it has something to do with him but I can’t seem to figure out the connection. It so happens that we’ve already been planning to exact revenge on him anyway. This time, we can take

    At this moment, Charlie’s helicopter had already flown into Aurous Hill’s airspace.Isaac asked Charlie, “Young Master, what do you plan to do with Nelson’s daughter?”Isaac said lightly, “Her parents are already gone so she’s an orphan now. Send her to the orphanage directly.”Isaac hurriedly said, “Young Master, I think that it would be best not to leave anything behind…”Charlie waved his hand as he said, “There are some things that a man should do, and shouldn’t do. It is impossible for me to harm a child. Send her to the orphanage. Don’t stop them if anyone from the Webb family comes to take her home.”Isaac nodded before he said, “I think that it will be impossible for the Webb family to come and adopt this child. After all, the Webb family hates Nelson and his wife very much. It is estimated that the Webb family will lose more than half of their family assets this time. It will all be reflected in the stock market tomorrow.”Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Alright

    As she spoke, Mrs. Lewis asked in a low voice, “Charlie, were you the one who took the video posted on the Internet? Were you the one who found the children?”Charlie smiled as he said, “Mrs. Lewis, you think too highly of me. How can I possibly have such great strength and ability?”Mrs. Lewis was silent for a moment before she sighed and said, “I watched the video and it seems as though Max is already dead…I really did not expect this child to take this path…”Charlie also sighed as he said, “I also watched the video. Max had taken the wrong path himself so you shouldn’t be too said either, Mrs. Lewis.”“I know…” Mrs. Lewis replied in a melancholic manner, “I thought that I would definitely pass away before all of you children. I was still thinking that all of you will be there at my memorial service to give me flowers when I’m old and have already passed away…”As she spoke about this, Mrs. Lewis sobbed softly, “I really didn’t expect one of the children to die before me first.

    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

    Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

    As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

    Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

    Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

    Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

    As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

    The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

    On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…
