Hannah was mortified by the diagnosis, hence, she had wanted to please Lady Wilson and her husband by overcompensating them. She had obtained some extra money from selling the coffee machine, so, she used the money to buy some ribs and pork belly to cook a wholesome meal for her family.Lady Wilson frowned in dismay when she learned that Hannah had bought vegetables, and she chided her in dissatisfaction, “Oh my goodness, why did you waste money on vegetables?”Hannah asked in surprise, “Mom, we can’t just eat meat! We have to have a balanced meal for all the vitamins and nutrients our body needs.”Lady Wilson pulled her to the kitchen and pointed to the basket of vegetables she had just stolen and said, “See that? I stole all those fresh vegetables from Charlie’s yard. They have a large vegetable garden in their yard that we can simply pick by reaching into their fence. We don’t have to spend money on vegetables in the future.”Hannah suddenly remembered that she had seen Charlie’

After lunch, Zeke made arrangements to send a truckload of daffodils to Charlie’s house.The daffodils he sent were all high-quality grades that were very lush and green, and none of them were flowering as per Charlie’s request.Daffodils looked very similar to chives especially when they were not blooming. People in the city could not distinguish plants very clearly. Also, most people who ate chives had only seen chives sold in the market that were tied in a bundle, but they had never seen chives growing in the ground, so they were unable to differentiate chives and daffodils in plain sight and would often get confused by the similarities.Chive was a vegetable fancied by many people. It was an indispensable amazing ingredient when it came to stir-frying, soup, making pies, or dumplings. However, daffodils were not edible.Why? Because daffodils contained narcissus.Narcissus was a toxic alkaloid.When Elaine told Charlie that Lady Wilson liked to eat chives, he immediately

Hannah hurriedly asked in a honeyed tone, “Mom, why do you need eggs and flour?”Lady Wilson answered, “I want to make eggs and chives dumplings for dinner!”Harold shrieked in surprise, “Grandma, are we having dumplings tonight?”“Yes!” Lady Wilson uttered, smiling ear to ear, “Do you like chives and eggs?”Harold giggled. “Of course! Oh, I love it so much! I haven’t eaten eggs and chives dumplings for a long time! I’m starting to drool when you say it!”Christopher also smiled and said, “Mom, why do you want to eat eggs and chives dumplings suddenly? You haven’t made dumplings for a long time.”Lady Wilson laughed and said, “I’m happy today! So happy that I could fill myself with eggs and chives dumplings!”“Wonderful!” Christopher huffed with a sigh, “I haven’t had dumplings for a long time, I can finally satisfy my cravings today!”Hannah asked, “Mom, other than eggs and flour, do I need to buy some chives?”Lady Wilson grinned triumphantly, “Charlie bought a lot of fresh

Elaine was so angry right then that she almost exploded out of rage.She had just warned Charlie to beware of the old lady in the morning, but instead of taking her warning seriously, he had bought so many fresh chives home!Great, now they were like a charity center to the old lady and her family!If it was in the past, she would have scolded Charlie already, but she didn’t have the courage to do so now.At this moment, Claire asked Charlie in the room, “Dear, what do you want to have for dinner?”Charlie smiled coyly and asked, “You don’t usually care about these things, what’s with the change of attitude? Why do you want to know what I want to eat tonight?”Claire pasted on a childlike smile and said, “I want to go pick some vegetables in the garden. Tell me what you want to eat, I’ll go pick them in the garden. What do you think? Does it sound like a good idea?”Charlie nodded and said with a warm smile, “Let’s go together then, just like what we did this morning.”Claire’s

Christopher whined sheepishly, “Okay, okay, you’re right, Mom. I’ll listen to you, okay?”Lady Wilson glared at him and urged, “Put a little more effort, mince the meat finely and make it tender!”“Yes, Ma’am…” Christopher answered dryly.By evening, the minced meat was done, the eggs were fried, and a large basket of ‘chives’ was washed. All of the ingredients were placed on the cutting board.Lady Wilson made the dumpling fillings herself. First, she mixed the fried eggs and chives with the seasoning for the eggs and chives dumpling. Then, she mixed another bowl of fillings with pork and chives.The rest of the Wilson family started to drool as they watched Lady Wilson make the dumpling fillings. After all, they had been through all kinds of turbulences and misfortunes recently. It was a rare opportunity for them to have such hearty and warm homemade dumplings.After mixing the fillings, Lady Wilson personally taught everyone how to wrap the dumplings. Honestly speaking, their

The Wilson family prepared two kinds of stuffed dumplings, and they made a lot of them. Based on the number of dumplings they had made, it was enough to feed ten adults, but the Wilson family almost managed to finish all the dumplings.They were so full after the meal that they couldn’t even sit up straight.Staring at the 20 to 30 dumplings left on the table, Lady Wilson prompted them while gesturing, “Hey, any of you, hurry and finish all the dumplings. Don’t waste it!”Caressing his round belly, Christopher whined helplessly, “Oh God, I can’t eat anymore, not even one.”Hannah shook her head too and said, “Mom, I can’t eat anymore, I’m so full right now.”Wendy was so full she didn’t even have the strength to talk. Instead, she slumped on the sofa and waved her hand, indicating her refusal.Harold said, “Grandma, why don’t we keep them in the fridge? We can fry them up and make potstickers for breakfast tomorrow.”Suddenly, Lady Wilson donned a wicked smirk on her face. She s

Harold was in agonizing pain at this moment. “I don’t know what’s going on, my stomach hurts so bad…”At this point, Harold felt stronger energy starting to build up inside his body again, and it was several times more intense than the previous one, rushing downward at an extremely fast speed.Immediately afterward, a loud puff sounded, and a stronger stench instantly exhumed throughout the living room.Christopher reflexively looked under Harold’s buttocks and found that a brownish sticky fluid had leaked out. He shrieked loudly, “D*mn it, Harold, you just pooped your pants!”“What?!” Everyone turned toward Harold simultaneously.It was obvious!There was something disgusting leaking from Harold’s butt!Lady Wilson shouted angrily, “D*mn it, you b*stard, this sofa is imported from Italy!”Harold was equally dumbfounded. He blurted innocently, “I… I… I don’t know what happened! My stomach was hurting, and it hurt so bad, I wanted to fart, then…”Wendy asked in bewilderment, “H
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1115
At this moment, the Wilson family had no idea why their stomachs hurt so badly and what was the cause of the severe diarrhea that followed.The narcissus of daffodils was a very strong poison. A very small amount of purified narcissus could be fatal to humans.However, even though the content of the alkaloid in daffodils was relatively small, consuming it in a large volume would trigger significant symptoms of food poisoning, but it would not be life-threatening if the amount was not too much.Regardless, the pain from the food poisoning was definitely not something ordinary people could bear.It not only induced vomiting and diarrhea, but also fever, convulsions, and nervous system disorders.If it was eaten in an unusually large amount, it may even cause shock and death.It was indeed a bit dangerous as everyone in the Wilson family had consumed too much of narcissus. Even Charlie did not expect that they would eat so much when he was drafting his plan.It was often reported i

Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300

"But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom

"Mr. Wilson, what you boys did was truly heinous!" Don Arnold growled. "I scolded Zachary myself when I found out, and I was the one who told him to post that statement!"Jacob was shocked. "But why, Don Arnold? Are you friends with Raymond Cole?""Never met the guy," Don Arnold replied.That left Jacob even more confused. "Then why are you taking his side?""I've been doing my best to clean up my image over the past couple of years," Don Albert replied coolly. "I rarely get involved in mob business or anything illicit, and everyone in Aurous Hill knows that Zachary is my right-hand man, yet he confessed to committing such a heinous crime behind my back. What is that if not sullying my reputation?"Jacob was left reeling as he didn't expect Don Albert to be so serious, but he quickly explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to affect you so terribly… It's all Zachary's fault! I wouldn't have been aware that Raymond had returned at all, but he just had to tell me and come up with
