Loreen didn’t want to pick up the call as she stared at Harold’s name on her phone. She didn’t have a good impression of Harold, and she could see right through his superficial motive of approaching her. He simply wanted to get close to her and tackle her heart.She was very annoyed by this person’s existence and immediately hung up the phone.However, Harold couldn’t take no for an answer. He attempted several times until Loreen reluctantly picked up the call and asked coldly, “What’s up, Harold?”Harold, on the other end of the line, hurriedly said, “Loreen, I heard that you are appointed as the sales director, is it true?”Loreen was surprised. “How do you get the news so fast?”Harold chuckled. “I have some friends who work in Emgrand Group, they told me that they received the official announcement about the appointment, so I called to congratulate you.”“Oh,” Loreen said, “Yes, I’m appointed as the sales director.”“Congratulations!” Harold shrieked in delight. “It is a p

Actually, Loreen could tell what was playing in Harold’s mind, and she wanted to protect herself from any unwanted scenarios, hence, she made up her mind not to drink with him tonight.Harold was bummed out after his request to drink was rejected, but he didn’t dare to express himself, so he said instead, “It’s okay, let’s just drink juice then.”Loreen nodded. “Thanks for being so considerate!”Meanwhile, a seemingly gracious young man sitting at the table next to them was staring at Loreen. He was attracted by her elegant temperament and aura after he saw her walking into the restaurant.‘The lady is so beautiful and extraordinary, she looks like a fairy descending to earth!’ thought the young man when he first laid eyes on Loreen.After observing their interaction for a while, he realized that the lady and the man were not a couple, so he decided to grab his chance to get to know the beautiful lady.He mustered enough courage before he stood up, walked towards their table, and

The young man felt light-headed and dizzy from the smash and almost collapsed to the floor.The diners around them were also shocked by the sudden commotion.Harold glared viciously at the young man whose head was drenched by his own blood and sneered, “Get lost, or I’ll break your leg!”The young man held the wound on his head and growled, “Alright, tough guy, wait and see!”Then, he ran out of the restaurant.Harold grinned disdainfully and said, “F*cking loser, who does he think he is to threaten me? I am Harold Wilson, f*cker!”Then, he put on a smug look as he said to Loreen, “There’s always these annoying bugs everywhere you go, don’t let him ruin our night. Come, let’s enjoy our dinner.”Loreen’s celebratory mood was totally destroyed after the disturbing moment. She simply nodded without a word.Throughout the dinner, Harold tried to lighten up the mood by striking conversations, but Loreen wasn’t entertained at all.In her opinion, Harold was nothing but an incapable

As Harold watched the steel pipe was aiming at him, he was so frightened and panicked that he almost wet himself.Suddenly, he grabbed Loreen’s hand and pushed her out towards the men then he ran towards his car, opened the door quickly, got in, and drove away without a second look at his back.Loreen screamed hastily as she was pushed towards the ferocious men, and she blew up when she looked at Harold running away like a scaredy-cat.Damn it! Harold Wilson was such a wuss and coward!After causing a scene, he had the nerve to push a lady forward as his shield in such a critical moment and escape by himself!He was the most disgusting scum in the world!The young man cursed out loud as Harold escaped.“Damn it, that f*cker! Left the lady here and ran! What a loser!”Then, he turned to Loreen and snarled coldly, “Beauty, call that bastard back, otherwise, you’re next!”Loreen blurted in a panic, “He and I, we’re just acquaintances, please don’t involve me in your affairs.”Th

Sharp and agonizing pain in her leg sent shocking waves throughout Loreen’s body. She was extremely desperate and in despair, tears kept streaming down her cheeks.The young man grinned slyly as he looked at her tearful yet beautiful face. He cleared his throat and shouted, “Get her in the car!”Someone’s voice echoed from the side, “Mr. Westbrook, when will you let us get a taste of the sweet lady?”The young man said coldly, “When I’m done with her, you can do whatever you like!”Then, he extended his arm and wanted to grab her into the car when there was an abrupt scream coming from behind the men!“Argh!”Suddenly, loud and painful screams violently resonated.The young man turned around angrily and shouted, “What’s wrong?”But when he lifted his head, he felt a sudden strong wind coming his way! Before he could dodge, he felt a sharp pain in his face, blood sprayed right in front of his eyes, his nose bridge snapped with a loud ‘crack’, and blood oozed out from his nose in

Charlie glanced at Loreen silently and thought, ‘You’ve always looked down on me, what’s the point of revealing myself? It will only give more trouble to both of us.’So, he decided best to keep it a secret.Likewise, he rescued her for the sake of his dear wife Claire, it’s not that he had a special treatment for her anyway.Seeing that the man didn’t say a word, Loreen understood that he didn’t want to reveal his identity, so she stopped her curious question.However, she was a woman with a masculine personality that refused to cling to men in any circumstances. She felt awkward and uncomfortable for not being able to express her gratitude after his help.When she wanted to ask again, a hoarse and cold voice echoed in her ears.“Take off your pants.”Loreen looked up in bewilderment. She suddenly felt ashamed and agitated when she saw the masked man was eyeing her from head to toe.She thought that she had escaped the tiger’s lair, but she fell right into the wolf den!Glanc

Clutching her leg, Loreen knew the man wasn’t bluffing as she saw blood leaking in between her fingers. But her mind was struggling when she thought about taking off her pants in front of a strange man.In the face of life and death, Loreen hesitated for a while and finally compromised to reality.She didn’t want to die, let alone became disabled.Loreen looked up at the masked man, her face was turning into an embarrassing shade of red, her heart was pounding violently, her whole body wiggled awkwardly.Finally, she said faintly, “Okay, thank you.”Charlie nodded at her compliance. He squatted down, grabbed her pants with both hands, and tore it forcefully.Loreen lowered her head and looked the other way, she sucked in a deep breath, her face was hot to touch, her heart almost escaped the ribcage due to the violent thumping.Charlie was as calm as the lake. Seeing that the stab wound was on her left leg, he put his index and middle fingers together, aimed at the acupoints, and

Who did this pebble belong to? Did it belong to the masked man? Did he drop the pebble by accident?Loreen clutched the pebble tightly as if she was holding a precious diamond.If she never saw him again, this stone would be the only thing he had left her.The ambulance took Loreen to the hospital. After a series of diagnosis, the doctor was genuinely surprised to find that her injuries were not serious, without knowing Charlie had attended to her wound previously.Judging from the stab wound on her leg, it would either rupture her hamstring or worse, damage her muscles and blood veins.However, other than the superficial wound, the veins and tendons inside were intact as if they were reconnected and much firmer than before.The doctor said, “Your wound will heal after a few days of rest. By the way, this is very incredible. Did you do something to the wound?”Loreen was thinking about the mysterious masked man, but she said, “No, I didn’t do anything.”The doctor exclaimed, “I

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
