The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1127
“Daffodils?” Claire asked in surprise. “Where are the daffodils? Why did they eat the daffodils?”Charlie smiled as he said, “The small plot of plants that I planted at the foot of the wall looks like leeks, but they’re actually daffodils.”“Oh my!” Claire blurted out, “Aren’t they leeks? I had really wanted to eat that!”Charlie smiled before he said, “They look like leeks but they aren’t leeks.”Claire replied, “I remember reading in a biology book that daffodils are poisonous, aren’t they?”Charlie nodded as she smiled and said, “My wife is really very knowledgeable. Daffodils are indeed poisonous. There is a kind of narcissus in the daffodil plants and excessive consumption of it can cause food poisoning.”Elaine widened her eyes in surprise as she exclaimed, “Oh, Charlie! Did you do it on purpose? It’s no wonder why you asked me what kind of vegetables the old lady likes to eat! I told you that she likes to eat leeks and that is the reason why you planted so many daffodils,

Everyone could understand the root cause of their big fight in the hospital because of Christopher’s swear words.It turned out that Hannah was pregnant!Moreover, the person who had impregnated her with the baby was not Christopher!When Elaine saw this, she could not help but burst out in laughter. “Hahaha! I’m really going to die from laughter. It turns out that Hannah is actually pregnant with someone else’s child! Hahaha!”Jacob could not help but exclaim in shock. “This woman is really too shameless. She committed adultery with another man and she still has the gall to come back even after getting pregnant with another man’s child?”Elaine laughed as she said, “Lady Wilson must be fuming with anger now. Didn’t she always think that her eldest daughter-in-law is the best? Isn’t it great this time? Her daughter-in-law has really made her proud this time!”Claire replied awkwardly, “This is such a big matter. Then, I guess that Uncle is definitely going to divorce Aunt, isn’t

That night, the video of the Wilson family started spreading rapidly throughout the entire Aurous Hill.This video was quickly uploaded on TikTok. However, Charlie had instructed TikTok to block the video.He did not want the video to exude too much influence, and he especially did not want this video to spread out of Aurous Hill.The reason behind this was because he knew that Donald would definitely be investing a sum of money in the Wilson family to support Wilson Group. If the Wilson family were to become notorious in the country, then this would very likely affect Donald’s decision.Charlie did not want the Wilson family to cool off just like that. It would be best if he broke out the scandal involving the Wilson family after Donald invested in the Wilson family. This way, he wouldn’t only be the Wilson family but also Donald that he would also be giving a slap in the face.All the Wilson family members were in pain for the entire night. Moreover, since they had been infused

He wasn’t the only one, for the entire Wilson family was very excited.This was because all of them knew that the Wilson family was finally making a comeback this time!Harold smiled before he told Lady Wilson, “Grandma, the Wilson family is going to be rich soon! The Webb family isn’t only investing in our company but they’re also giving us a new project to handle. They’re making it clear that they are supporting us and backing us up!”Harold was secretly making plans in his mind as he spoke.Once upon a time, Harold was also a well-known rich heir. He used to live a life of luxury every day and he was surrounded by countless people and various compliments back then.However, his life had been hell during this period of time. Everyone who knew him in Aurous Hill also knew that he had already become homeless and miserable.Now, it was finally time for Harold to make a comeback.Wendy also had a longing expression on her face as she said, “When our family gets rich, wouldn’t we b

When Donald saw this video, he was extremely pissed off and furious.He really did not expect that someone would have taken a video of the Wilson family’s fight in the hospital.What was even more unexpected was that this video would be exposed directly after he announced his investment in Wilson Group.This showed that someone was deliberately finding fault with him! They were waiting for him to publicly announce his investment in Wilson Group before they gave him a slap in his face!The most hateful thing was TikTok!It seemed as though this online video platform really had beef with him!Last time, the standup comedy between Cain and Marcus had spread like wildfire because of this platform!Even when he tried to use public relations to deal with that matter, it was of no use at all as the Wade family in Eastcliff had directly bought over the online video platform. Besides that, the process of his d*mn brother-in-law, Nelson, and his entire Beggar Clan getting wiped out was

Late at night, at the foot of Mount Golmin, Jeffrey was wrapped in a thick jacket made out of deerskin, dragging his elderly father, Jordan, behind him as they walked out of the mountain.The temperature at Mount Golmin had dropped drastically recently, with its temperature reaching the lowest point of about minus thirty degrees during the night.Under any normal circumstances, they would both be unwilling to step out of the house even if it would kill them. However, because of the clear requirements, they had to go into the mountain to gather ginseng.They would only be able to get some food, medicine, and also the kerosene and firewood that they needed for heating in exchange for the ginseng that they gathered.After all, the weather was so cold and the energy consumption for the heater was very high every day. Picking up firewood alone would not be sufficient for them and it would have to be matched with a sufficient amount of kerosene too.After going into the mountain for the

The father and son from the Weaver family were both dreaming of turning their lives around. Suddenly, a violent cold wind suddenly blew swiftly across Mount Golmin, making them shiver from the cold.Jordan sighed as he said, “The wind at this place is really too harsh. A gust of wind makes my whole body tremble and shiver from the cold. Let’s leave now.”“Okay!” Jeffrey had also felt the cold air that pierced his bones. He quickly shrank his neck as he stood up and patted the snow off his butt. After that, he stretched out his hand to help him father up.In fact, during this period of time when the father and son had to live together on Mount Golmin, their relationship had really improved a lot.In the past, although Jordan had always preferred his eldest son, he was a very selfish person and it was very difficult for him to really treat another person well.Therefore, he treated Jeffrey in just a very ordinary manner even though it was better than how he had treated Liam.Jeffre

Jordan nodded his head and he could not help but sigh as he said, “It would be great if we could get two catties of wine. We can soak the ginseng in wine and enjoy a sip of the wine when we are feeling cold when we are up on the mountain. That would simply be amazing!”Jeffrey replied, “The widow, Leanne, seems to know how to make wine. I’ll chat with her and bring it up when I have the chance to do so someday. Perhaps she has some wine hidden at home.”The father and son continued walking as they chatted among themselves as they walked through the cold wind. They finally arrived at the entrance of the village after more than half an hour.Both of them did not immediately return to their dilapidated house. Instead, they headed to the hunter Mr. Lange’s house in the village in the dark.Although the people living in the village at the foot of Mount Golmin were all very poor, they were not missing anything at all.In the past, people from the village would often head into the mounta

The lawyer then finished, "To be honest, cases of regretting a donation and seeking a lawsuit to get the money back? Law firms usually won't even get one per year, and that makes it especially newsworthy for the press."Also, court records are always public. That means anyone can access the verdict, and there's no hiding anything. So, if you want the lawsuit, you'd better be prepared."Jacob was already left in despair.All he wanted was to get his money back, but he didn't think that it would end up as public knowledge.And Mr. Bay had just told him over the phone that he would try to quell the scandal's pressure and try his best to protect Jacob's place as vice president.If Jacob's name was suddenly mentioned in a lawsuit attempting to reclaim an 'accidental' donation, even Mr. Bay couldn't save him at that point.Hence, after thinking long and hard about it, Jacob realized that he was not getting his 300 thousand back.The thought crushed him, and he burst into tears, "What

At this hour, most of the employees at Talbot Associates had already left.However, there were several lawyers who had just finished a meeting regarding a certain case, and they were just leaving when Jacob arrived.Seeing that they were packing up their bags and ready to leave, he asked, "Excuse me, are you still able to take cases?"The leader smiled, "Yes, but it's a little late now. Why don't you come again tomorrow morning?"Jacob shook his head impatiently. "This is very urgent—please help me and hear me out, then see if it will work. 300 thousand banks on this, so I'll give you twenty percent whether or not I get it back!"300 thousand was really neither here nor there.However, if it were an easy civil case, that twenty percent commission would still mean sixty thousand.The lawyer thought about it. "Fine. Tell us what your problem is, and we will assess the situation first. If it's easy, we can give you a general strategy right now. But if it proves difficult, we'll hav

The cabbie nodded. "Well, Talbot Associates, it is! They're said to be number two."-While Jacob was heading off to consult a law firm, Charlie was calling Julien Rothschild over the phone.The manchild had just had room service and was lounging on the couch, fiddling with his phone.After visiting the kennels with Charlie, he had been idling his days away at the hotel, waiting for Salem and his son to post that video of them being out at sea.Once that was done, Julien would return to the States, once more the heir apparent of the Rothschilds. Still, it was boring to simply lounge around in the hotel, and he would really like to strengthen his ties with Charlie.However, he was also afraid of being too forward as Charlie could be intimidating, and he could upset him—just like a fan eager to get close to their idol but was still worried about their idol getting disgusted with them.As such, he never expected Charlie to call him, and he immediately answered eagerly, "Good even

Pausing, Mr. Bay continued, "If they're not that upset with the idea, I'll bang my gavel and make the call so that you can at least stay as a vice president."If they keep refusing, I just have to promote Mr. Zonda to become a vice president while you take over his position of head-of-department as insurance. What do you think?"Jacob certainly wouldn't protest the idea of insurance, especially when he thought he would be forced to leave the Calligraphy and Painting Association altogether earlier. He quickly exclaimed gratefully, "Thank you so much, Mr. Bay!"Mr. Bay chuckled, clearly relieved as well. "Come on, Jacob—you don't have to be so formal. I'm like a brother to you! Don't you think that's what I should be doing?"Jacob laughed earnestly for once. "Well, brother, I'm honestly relieved…" He trailed off but soon pressed on, "But I have to ask, won't the other members have things to say even if you manage to persuade the other vice presidents? What if they remain unhappy?

There were times when making a person despair to some extent could be a people-strategy.For example, when your distant acquaintance asked for a ten grand loan but you could only lend him one, you couldn't tell him directly that. It would make them think you were being insincere.The better option would be to tell them how you were worse off than they were and had a debt yourself, or that some other friend had borrowed money for three years and never repaid it.And when that mere acquaintance was in despair, you could tell them that if it was really important, you could lend them one thousand with a credit card loan.That way, while the mere acquaintance wouldn't exactly be awash with gratitude, they at least wouldn't complain about your lack of sincerity.That was exactly what Mr. Bay was doing.He had no intention of offending Jacob, but he also couldn't directly tell him to give up on claiming the position as president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Otherwise, Ja

Jacob felt absolutely horrible just then, and he certainly did not expect Don Albert to give him the cold shoulder.If he had known, he would have just stayed content with the 200 thousand he had made and enjoyed his trip to Dubai! If he had, the Calligraphy and Painting Association wouldn't have found out about the bronze sculpture plot, and Don Albert would still be on friendly terms with him.Absolutely regretting everything, Jacob got in the backseat of the cab, tears of grief almost welling up and out of his eyes.Then, noticing that the cabbie was quietly watching him from the rearview mirror, he turned his face aside, whipped out his phone, and called Mr. Bay.As soon as Mr. Bay answered, he asked, "How did things go over there? Have you sorted out Zachary Evans yet?"He was waiting for Jacob to ask Don Albert for help so that the latter would pressure Zachary into posting a statement retracting his previous claims.However, Jacob knew full well that there was no hope for

Ramond replied, "I'm not planning on getting my name out there—I was just thinking I could start slow from one shop, but now, I'm suddenly so popular everyone's consulting me for appraisals, so I guess that's the short end of this."Either way, I'm planning to let things cool off by opening the shop late and closing early. That way, I'd receive fewer customers, and the hype will die down in a month."Once it does, I'll lead a slow life, which is perfect in Aurous Hill since it's how things are here. I'm not aiming to get rich or expand my business, and it's a comfortable life, so I plan to retire here."Charlie nodded. "The Rothschilds are relatively manageable, but I'm not sure if the Qing Eliminating Society is still looking for you and the Four-Sided Treasure Tower. You'll be completely free once they are wiped out.""And I'm sure with your abilities, Mr. Wade, that day will soon arrive." Raymond smiled and soon remembered. "By the way, you probably haven't had dinner yet, right

Charlie was never one who covered up misdeeds, and what Jacob had done reflected his corrupted character and clear refusal to feel remorse.As such, Charlie naturally refused to offer any help, completely giving up and allowing Jacob to keep going off on his own tangent, tearing himself apart in the process.Still, Raymond did put a good word in for Jacob. "Actually, one can understand Mr. Wilson's motives from a certain point of view. I was the one who set him up so that he broke that vase, and had him beaten up so that we didn't arouse suspicion. He has every reason to bear a grudge."Charlie sighed, nodding. "There's no issue with holding a grudge or getting revenge—in fact, I have no problem with him trying to salvage some pride. However, what he did was unseemly, and he doesn't know when to stop."He didn't lose anything before Zachary exposed everything. Even if he had missed a killer deal, he bought it off someone's hand in the first place and made two hundred grand in clean

With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j
