The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1210
Lord Moore had perceived Dylan’s real intention of visiting Aurous Hill this time.Dylan must have been captivated by his granddaughter’s beauty and charm so much so that he wanted to draw the Moore family to the Koch family’s side and ultimately make them their lackeys. At the same time, he would seduce his granddaughter as his companion.If this had happened back then, he would not refuse his olive branch even though he had seen through all their plans, be it favorable or hostile. After all, such good opportunities did not happen very often. So many families in the South Region were eager to become the lackeys and underlings for the big families in Eastcliff, but these big families looked down upon them, and some even despised them.There were many reclusive rich families in Eastcliff that their fortune was beyond the imagination of the second-rate families in the South Region.The Wade family of Eastcliff was the best example in this case. No one from the Wade family had made

Reuben was gravely distraught now. Never did he expect that his grandfather would still curry favor with Charlie even if he had to offend Dylan during the process.Reuben was not a fool. He could see that the reason why his grandfather took Charlie so seriously was that he was a little addicted to the Rejuvenating Pill.In other words, instead of gripping the olive branch that Dylan and the Koch family had tossed at them, his grandfather would rather get on good terms with Charlie. This proved that the old man no longer cared about the future of the family nor the wealth they could generate, but rather how many more years he could live.Otherwise, he would never have given up the Koch family’s offer and chosen Charlie.This made Reuben extremely disappointed and upset.First of all, Lord Moore had given up the opportunity offered by the Koch family, and this meant that the Moore family had lost a good chance to rise above and beyond.Secondly, if Lord Moore was given another Re

At this moment, Lord Moore continued, “Jasmine has always been a very well-mannered girl, and she is very concerned about family matters, be it personal or business. I am truly grateful for that. In fact, some time ago, when I was gravely ill and all the doctors announced that my time had almost come, she introduced Master Wade to me. It was Master Wade who cured me and pulled me back from the light. He even gave me the precious Rejuvenating Pill, allowing me to rewind my timeline to 20 years younger.”Lord Moore paused for a while, bowed slightly to Charlie, and said, “Master Wade, I thank you for your help in curing me, and of course, I am grateful for my granddaughter and her endless efforts. Therefore, on the occasion of her birthday today, I would like to make an announcement. I have decided that from tomorrow, Jasmine will officially take over the position of the head of the Moore family. Also, I will officially retire from tomorrow!”Lord Moore’s voice echoed across the hall l

As soon as Lord Moore made this statement, those who opposed the idea of Jasmine inheriting the family business shut their mouth, acknowledging Lord Moore’s opinion.They understood one fact from it, and that was they and their children had no chance to inherit the family business anyway, so it might as well be someone who was more capable and eligible to take over the position of the head of the family. Lord Moore was right—the stronger the head of the family was, the more money she could make, and the more money they could get in return.Reuben was pretty average in all aspects, but there was a huge gap between him and Jasmine in terms of capability.Jasmine was relatively young, but she could take care of and manage the family business very well.The antique business was prosperous under her management, whilst the foreign trade was handled very impressively and superbly in her hands.In terms of business skills and talents, she surpassed all the descendants of her generation

As this thought lingered in Tyler’s mind, he ground his teeth scornfully, murderous intent flooding his thoughts.Lord Moore seemed to have noticed the dissatisfaction in his eldest son’s expression and tone, so he turned to Charlie and said respectfully, “Master Wade, I have a presumptuous request that I hope you can agree to.”Charlie smiled lightly and said, “Do tell, Lord Moore.”Lord Moore started, “I hope you can become the second heir to the patriarch of the Moore family in case anything happens to Jasmine in the future. If Jasmine does not leave any children, you will automatically become the head of the family. If you agree, I can promise you that 30% of the family’s net profit will be yours, and it will be valid forever. You have my word on that.”The reason for such a request was because Lord Moore was indeed worried that his eldest son and his family might harm Jasmine due to the arrangement, but he was reluctant to give up his decision because of this reason.He knew

Right now, Charlie regarded Jasmine as his close friend and was willing to protect her with all his might.As for Tyler and Reuben, their eyes were burning with a murderous flame.They had been eyeing the position of patriarch for many years, and they couldn’t accept the fact that Jasmine had been appointed for the position.Nevertheless, they were very clear that it was bound to be a fierce and ugly battle if they wanted to regain the position of the heir.Therefore, they had to plan their strategy wisely. If they decided to make a move, they had to ensure a guaranteed victory.At this birthday banquet, Jasmine was undoubtedly the happiest person in the hall.At this moment, from the bottom of Jasmine’s heart, her gratitude and love for Charlie reached its peak.How could a smart woman like her not know Charlie’s intention in giving her the Rejuvenating Pill?Who would benefit the most from the Rejuvenating Pill? Old people, of course. Very old people.She was only 26 years o

Charlie was about to agree to Paul’s invitation, but the gorgeous Jasmine suddenly appeared in front of them, and with her face blushing shyly, she said, “Paul, there’s no need to bother you. I will send Master Wade home.”Paul was a smart guy. He knew that deep down in Jasmine’s heart, she must truly adore Charlie very much.She, as the birthday girl, should not offer herself to send the guests off herself. Not tonight.After all, today was her birthday as well as the first day she had become the successor of the Moore family, but she had volunteered herself to send Charlie home after the banquet ended.Moreover, there were so many distinguished guests here today, but among these guests, she only wanted to send Charlie home. This was more than enough to see how much she valued and cherished Charlie.Paul cleared his throat and said with a coy smile, “Oh yes, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do and Master Wade’s house is out of my way, so, Miss Moore, I’ll have to tr

Harvey was thrilled to see Charlie and sprinted toward him excitedly. However, before he could greet Charlie, he suddenly realized that he was now Travis’s driver and this behavior was considered rude and unacceptable. So, he hurriedly wiped the excitement off his face and said respectfully, “Hello, Mr. Lane!”Travis patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, “Harvey, drop the diplomacy. You are Master Wade’s buddy, which means you are my buddy too. Although I am ten odd years older than you, we can be good buddies as well!”Harvey nodded quickly, surprised and flattered.At this moment, Charlie came to him, smiled warmly, and asked, “Hey, Harv, how is everything? How are you? How is this new job?”Harvey replied very gratefully, “Charlie, my good buddy, I don’t know how to thank you! Without you, there is no me! You are my life savior!”Charlie’s warm smile persisted as he said, “Everyone will meet their life savior at a certain point in their life. You think I am your lif

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
