At this moment, at the Aurous Detention Center, Lady Wilson and Wendy had been locked up for several days now. Thanks to Jennifer’s sympathy, no one had bullied them while they were locked up.Christopher and Harold, on the other hand, were not doing so well in the men’s detention cell.They were bullied in various ways as soon as they were thrown into the cell for being rookies. Not only did they have to do a lot of work but their food was snatched away by the other inmates. There was not a single day that they could sleep with a slightly-filled belly.Because of his misfortune, the hatred Christopher had towards Hannah intensified day by day.He couldn’t help but think about how comfortable she must be with her beloved toyboy and the money she had robbed from him.If it weren’t for Hannah, who had taken away all their money, he would not have ended up where he was now!Initially, the four of them were sentenced to fifteen days in detention. There were a few more days to go be
Wendy jumped in excitement and asked, “Sir, is it true? Did you release my father and brother? Where are they now?”The man replied indifferently, “They are being taken care of by my men. Just follow me.”Lady Wilson didn’t give much thought to the entire event. She was in such a miserable state anyway and it was unnecessary for someone to kick her when she was down. In fact, he released her on bail too. She might as well go and take a look, perhaps a new fate awaited her.The two women went through the procedure and got their clothes and belongings. After changing into their own clothes, they followed the man out of the detention center.Two Rolls-Royce Phantoms were parked outside the detention center.The men turned to them, pointed to the car at the back, and said, “You two, get into that car.”Lady Wilson was screaming a joyful shriek inside her when she saw the cars.No ordinary people could afford a Rolls-Royce, let alone two.The Wilson family couldn’t afford a Rolls-Ro
Although she was very puzzled, Lady Wilson knew very well that it would be useless for her to think too much at this time. After all, she had already gotten into the other party’s car. It would be better for her to settle down and wait to find out what the other party had in mind.Moreover, her instincts told her that even though the other party looked a little mysterious, he would not hurt her.After all, she was very poor and had nothing at all. No one would go through so much trouble just to harm her.As she thought about this, Lady Wilson heaved a huge sigh of relief.She sat in the car calmly as she waited to see what the other party was going to offer them.The two Rolls-Royce drove directly into Aurous Airport. At this time, the Webb family’s private jet was already parked at the small hangar.This was the private jet that was used to send Hannah to Sudbury last night.Early the next morning, the private jet took off again from Sudbury as it headed toward Aurous Hill to p
She cried and muttered, “My son! My grandson! Both of you have suffered a lot of grievances!”Harold looked like a very aggrieved child. He wiped the tears off his eyes and choked as he said, “Grandma, you don’t know what kind of hardships my father and I have experienced during this period. This is the worst hardship and torment that I have ever suffered in my life.”Christopher also sighed as he said, “Ahh, it is all the same. We should not talk about all those things anymore. Talking about it will only add to our troubles.”Lady Wilson nodded before she hurriedly asked, “By the way, Christopher, what is going on? Who was the one who released us on bail?”“I don’t know…” Christopher shook his head before he said, “Both Harold and I were also suddenly released from the detention center. After that, they used their car to send us here before they asked us to wait here. We do not know who they are.”At this time, the man who picked Lady Wilson and Wendy up from the detention center
When Harold heard the other party rejecting his request directly with the excuse that she was Damien’s personal flight attendant, he was extremely embarrassed, and he was filled with jealousy.The rich and wealthy were indeed rich and wealthy. They not only had their own private jet, but they also had their own personal flight attendant. This really made people feel a lot of envy and hatred.When could he ever get to this point?The flight attendant ignored them before she swayed her hips and went to the front of the cabin. Damien kept his eyes closed the whole entire time and could not be bothered to talk to the Wilson family at all.Therefore, the Wilson family was also a little bored.They were all looking forward to the situation after arriving at Sudbury. Although they had never heard of Damien’s name before, they had certainly heard of Donald’s name.Donald was the eldest son of the Webb family and the current heir of the Webb family. Therefore, it could be said that he was
Why was the next generation of a big family not as good as the previous generation?Actually, this had a lot to do with the environment they lived in.The older generation was born into a humble life. They had to earn their own money to pay for each of their own meals, and they worked hard to earn every single cent they spent. So, during that time, the people who were able to build up a family business would never be considered mediocre. They were all regarded as elites.However, after they had established and made something out of themselves, their sons would already be living a full and abundant life from the moment they were born. Since they had adequate food and clothing, they did not need to work or fight hard to survive. Therefore, their instincts would naturally be weaker, and they would be less aggressive.By the time their grandson was born, he would have already been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. They would not go out to work hard to earn their keep. Instead, it
During this period, Christopher truly hated Hannah to the core!After all, to a man, there was nothing more painful than getting betrayed by his own beloved woman.When Hannah had disappeared, Christopher had fallen for Charlie’s words, and he was muddleheaded enough to actually believe that Hannah had eloped with a gigolo.Also, Hannah had held the entire family’s money with her at that time. Therefore, Christopher was even more angry and furious with Hannah.So many days and nights had already passed, but every time he thought of Hannah, he really wanted to catch her and beat her to death.However, he also knew that he would never be able to meet Hannah again in this life since she had already run away with their money. It would also be possible for her to have fled abroad with the money.He never expected that he would meet Hannah, whom he hated so deeply, in the Webb family villa in Sudbury today!Hence, Christopher did not think much and rushed at Hannah without any hesitat
Both of them had felt the same as their father, Christopher, not too long ago. They had initially hated their mother who had been so selfish when she fled with their family money, often scolding and cursing at her during this tough and difficult time.It was only until today that they found out that their mother was actually suffering too. Moreover, she had suffered even more compared to them. At the very least, the four of them had only suffered a little injustice in the detention center. However, Hannah had had to endure extensive torture and suffering in the black coal mine.The expression on Lady Wilson’s face was very ugly at this time.She did not sympathize with Hannah at all, however, she felt a lot of pity and sympathy for the money that they had lost because of Charlie!At this point, the old lady walked toward Christopher in rage before she slapped his face severely when he totally did not expect it at all.Christopher was stunned when he got slapped.He looked at h
Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade
Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd
Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki
Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should
Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e
Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,
Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl
Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i
Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove
