Charlie felt quite helpless and forlorn when it came to Jasmine.He didn’t expect that she would be so attentive to him, but at the same time, he was surprised to find her so stubborn.He didn’t intend to stir her feelings but things still happened when he had least expected them to.He was partially responsible for the deep affection she had for him, but he knew clearly that it was impossible to resolve this matter overnight, so he could only say, “I think it’s best if we give each other some time, let’s talk about this later.”Jasmine glanced at him anxiously and asked in a soft voice, “Will you ignore me from now on? Will you keep your distance from me and alienate me?”Charlie smiled and said, “Why would I? There’s no way I will avoid and ignore you simply because you confessed your feelings to me. I’m not that kind of person.”Jasmine heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Actually, I’ve already prepared myself mentally for the fact that it may take a long time to realize this d

After getting off the car, Charlie stood in place as he watched Jasmine drive away, then remained standing for more than ten seconds before turning around and walking through the Thompson First gate.When he returned to his own house, Claire had already finished her night shower and was lying on the bed reading a book.She smiled at the sight of Charlie and asked, “How was your friend’s birthday party?”Charlie felt a little awkward and replied in an uneasy tone, “Oh, the party, it was nice…”Claire didn’t know that it was actually Jasmine’s birthday because Charlie didn’t tell her about it as he didn’t want Claire to overthink the whole thing.Claire, on the other hand, didn’t notice any difference in Charlie. Instead, she put the book down, looked at Charlie, and said in a rather timid voice, “Dear, can I ask you a favor, please?”Charlie uttered, “You don’t have to be so formal with me, dear. I’ll do anything for you, go ahead, spill it.”Claire said, “My high school friend i

Meanwhile, Jasmine had returned to the Moore family mansion. On the way back, she blushed shyly and her heart was thumping vigorously when she recalled the bold kiss she gave Charlie.Frankly speaking, Jasmine was not the kind of woman who would take the initiative in a relationship.She had countless suitors since she was young, but she had never liked any of these suitors.In fact, she hadn’t even liked anyone before she met Charlie.Even she herself did not expect that she would spiral out of control after falling in love with Charlie.As the young lady of the number one family in Aurous Hill, if the news about the kiss were to spread, she would soon become the laughing stock of the entire city.After all, in public’s opinion, they shunned the unreserved idea of a girl throwing herself at a man.Moreover, it was her first kiss that she had kept for twenty-six years and she gave it to Charlie.However, Jasmine had no regrets at all. At the same time, she decided firmly th

Moreover, they were at their wits’ end after Lord Moore had totally recovered from his terminal illness and was now as healthy as a middle-aged man. This meant that he would live for another ten to twenty years.Jasmine might be green and inexperienced now, but with the dedication and hope Lord Moore placed on her, as well as his protection and security, it was no doubt that Jasmine would be able to establish herself as the reliable head of the family in a few years’ time.By that time, it would be very difficult to overthrow her.It was a well-known fact from history that whenever the noble dynasties were vying to claim the throne, the best time for an insurgency was when the new emperor was on the throne with a weak foundation of power.For example, Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty rose to rebellion against his nephew, the Jianwen Emperor, who had recently ascended the throne, and successfully overthrew the newly-elected emperor.However, their current problem was that Jasmine was not

At this moment, late at night at the Eastcliff International Airport, the private jet that Dylan Koch was in landed at the airport.Throughout the flight, Dylan was on edge after swallowing the ruby necklace.He was afraid that the necklace would cause intestinal obstruction in his digestive system and that he would be in grave danger. Luckily, he landed safely in Eastcliff.As soon as the plane landed, it immediately taxied down the runway to the hangar where an ambulance was already waiting.The Koch family was very powerful and wealthy in Eastcliff with a net worth of at least five hundred billion dollars. Not only did they have their own team of medical doctors and specialists but they also had their own private hospital.The ambulance that had come to pick him up at the airport was from the Koch family’s hospital.On the ambulance were the vice president of the hospital and a number of gastroenterologists.These experts were particularly nervous when they heard that Dylan h

Dylan got steamed up about the doctor’s question!Charlie’s smug face appeared in his mind again and he couldn’t wait to wipe that stupid smile off his face as well as kill him now!And then there was Isaac!He was so rude and cruel that he even recorded a video to blackmail him and threatened him into swallowing the ruby necklace!If it wasn’t for his threat, he wouldn’t have swallowed the necklace!Did that b*stard really think he owned the world simply because he had the Wade family backing him up? What an outrage!Dylan glared at the doctor and scoffed angrily, “Mind your own f*cking business! If any stupid words come out of your mouth again, I’ll f*cking kill you!”The doctor quickly shut his mouth. Although Dylan was not the strongest one of them all in the Koch family as the third son of the family, he was not someone to be on bad terms with.The ambulance sped off to the hospital and upon arriving at the hospital, Dylan was immediately pushed into the CT scan room.The

The doctors and nurses who worked in the Koch family’s hospital knew how well off they were, so they would grab any chance they could to curry favor with the family members.It was beyond the nurse’s wildest dreams that the third young master of the Koch family would be attracted to her, it was like a Cinderella dream came true.Even just a one-night stand would guarantee her a comfortable life as promised by Mr. Koch, but what if she was pregnant with his child after the intercourse? Wouldn’t it mean that she would be able to get from zero to hero with the child in her belly?This was also the reason why many celebrities would, by all means, choose to become the mistress of a rich tycoon or even bear the tycoon a child! It was simply because they wanted to have their own version of the rags-to-riches story.Upon hearing his seductive proposal, the nurse nodded immediately without hesitation and said with a pasty and coquettish voice, “Mr. Koch, I’ll do whatever you want me to!”D

The nurse grabbed a pillow to cover her body and said in an aggrieved tone, “Mr. Koch, don’t you sling mud at me. If it weren’t for you, why would I betray my boyfriend? My boyfriend and I share a very affectionate relationship…”Dylan cursed furiously. “You have a boyfriend?”The nurse cried, “Yes, my boyfriend and I have been together for several years and we’ve even planned to get married this year. If he knows about this, it would be the end for me …”Dylan gritted his teeth in agitation while Leonard glared at the nurse with a dark face and said, “I’ll give you five million, get out of this room and this hospital right now.”When the nurse heard that she would get five million, she nodded profusely, quickly grabbed her uniform and put it on her, and ran out with a grin on her face.At this moment, the doctors came to tend to Dylan’s grandmother who fell on the floor, and took her away for examination.Dylan’s grandfather and father followed them, leaving Sylvia, Dylan’s moth

Charlie chuckled. "Don't sell yourself short, Mr. Hart. There are plenty of business folk who got so used to their comfort zone that they became caught in the illusion that they can be successful in anything they do. It's a mindset that leads to them blindly developing new projects and new competition, and then they end up losing big."If memory serves, there have been real estate businesses that started mineral water brands, search engines that tried the car industry, e-commerce sites attempting social media, and vice-versa. All of them are multi-billion-dollar companies venturing into new frontiers, but all to unimpressive outcomes."Pausing, Charlie then continued, "You've mentioned rising above the competition amidst the development of the new energy industry. That would get anyone's attention, and it is why I believe that you definitely will make a strong impression with your strategizing and knowledge of the basic principles."Yolden found it hard to refuse, seeing that Charli

Having lost it all, Jacob really looked like he wouldn't be getting back up.But fortunately, he had a pillar in the form of Elaine.In fact, Elaine would serve to be a container, whipping Jacob into shape if he got too full of himself.But on the other hand, now that Jacob was utterly despondent, she would be forcing him to smile and function in general.Elaine's attitude to the entire issue was clear as well. Even though Jacob had just lost his job, she would make him go shopping with her in Dubai even if he fell into a coma. Even if he was dead, she'd just cremate him and bring his ashes along.Hence, with Elaine's firm grip around Jacob's leash, he went on strolls, going shopping and taking selfies with Elaine everyday, eventually easing the toll on his mood and spirit.-Back at Aurous Hill, Charlie was preparing for Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall's wedding as it approached.Yolden was a schoolmate of his mother, Ashley Layna Acker, as well as Charlie's elder.And while Cha

"See you." As soon as Charlie hung up on Matilda, Don Albert's call came right after.He sounded nervous as Charlie answered the phone, saying, "Master Wade, I think I might have gone too far…""Wait, what's this about?" Charlie asked."Your father-in-law, of course…" Don Albert sighed. "You asked me to leave him hanging for a while, so I did. I even refused when he asked to book a room in Heaven Springs.""Well, that's not a problem, is it?" Charlie shrugged. "He and Zachary ganged up for some real mischief. As you are Zachary's boss, it's right that you refused him because you didn't appreciate what he did.""That's just it. I thought that approach was just right as well," Don Albert quickly said. "I wasn't playing nice when Mr. Bay of the Calligraphy and Painting Association called me either. That's when he said he'd try to save Jacob's position as vice-president, but I told him it's none of my business."I then hung up on him without much thought, only for Zachary to tell m

Meanwhile, Charlie was downstairs in Claire's office, waiting to pick her up and head home.That was when Matilda called him, asking as soon as he answered, "Charlie, do you know how Jacob is doing? He never answered any of my texts—is he going to be alright?""I wouldn't know," Charlie replied. "Both he and Elaine are in Dubai on a trip… What's wrong?""He resigned," Matilda sighed. "I only saw the public statement that the Calligraphy and Painting Association posted this afternoon. It says that he tendered the resignation himself, but it doesn't really feel that way. I wonder if he's at odds with other members of the association…"Charlie was actually surprised to hear that Jacob had resigned.He had told Zachary to expose the truth of the bronze sculpture fraud case to teach Jacob a lesson so that Jacob would understand the meaning of true pain.However, he anticipated that Mr. Bay would at least keep Jacob around with an unimportant job even if Jacob did lose some money and e

Falling apart in both mind and spirit, Jacob was crying as he disembarked and took a cab to the hotel.Elaine, who had been lying around for 24 hours, was stunned speechless as she watched him enter, crying like a child.In contrast, Elaine looked like a mother to Jacob just then as he threw himself into her arms and bawled, "Darling… That prick Mr. Bay screwed me over… I have nothing left now…"Taken aback for a moment that Jacob would bawl in her arms like that, Elaine soon came to her senses and patted his back as she comforted him, "Oh, stop crying already. Who cares about some Calligraphy and Painting groupies? We certainly don't! Just hear me out and don't ever go there again!"Jacob kept sobbing, "But I care… I want to go…"Annoyed, Elaine's hand that had been patting Jacob a moment ago slid down to his hip and pinched him viciously before he noticed."Ow!" Jacob yelped in pain, and he demanded indignantly, "What was that for?!""Shut up!" Elaine snapped, glowering. "I wa

Jacob couldn't even be bothered by the looks others were giving him, and he called Mr. Bay immediately.Mr. Bay had already gone home and was seated on the couch with his wife, watching his phone and waiting for Jacob to call and demand an explanation.Mr. Bay knew that he had to answer for this and that if he avoided Jacob, it may well be a confession that he had screwed Jacob over.So, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to come clean with Jacob.Naturally, by coming clean, he meant passing the buck as his wife had suggested.Hence, as he answered Jacob's call, he immediately sighed in embarrassment, "Hey, Jacob. I'm so sorry about that…"However, Jacob was so furious he immediately started bellowing, "Mr. Bay! Are you fucking with me here?! You said that the resignation letter was more of a formality, but you just made it public instead! So, all those things you said about helping me were just a trap, was it?! You're despicable! And to think I've been so good to you, even

The repeated flights had left Jacob tormented.Even before he actually had the time to enjoy Dubai, he had already gotten sick of the place and didn't want to ever return.And on the flight, he couldn't stop his thoughts from going astray.Now that he was not getting back the money he had lost, his only hope was Mr. Bay.Fortunately, Mr. Bay was serious about his promise that he would at least save him a job as department head. That was why, despite his thoughts running astray, he never considered the thought that he would be kicked out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.As soon as his flight landed, he didn't wait to turn off his phone's flight mode, waiting for the internet connection to return so that he could ask Mr. Bay about the meeting.Once he did, he received a ton of messages from public accounts to acquaintances—many had already found out that he had resigned from the post of administrative vice-president and wanted to ask how he was doing.And Matilda was

The Calligraphy and Painting Association was certainly efficient—soon after the meeting was dismissed, the news that the administrative vice-president had resigned was posted on their official page and social media.The notice was simple and never mentioned what Jacob had done, only that the administrative vice-president had asked to resign for personal reasons. The request had since been voted upon, and all members had agreed to it.And that was how a simple and short message kicked Jacob out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association entirely.In the city, other associations closely connected with the Calligraphy and Painting Association were the various cultural societies and circles of antique enthusiasts and the Senior University. In fact, most fans of the public page of the Calligraphy and Painting Association were from the Senior City, and every lecturer, student, and even guest lecturer were subscribed.As a matter of fact, that was entirely Jacob's doing. After his lect

There weren't that many members in the Calligraphy and Painting Association—just a handful over twenty.Hence, at Mr. Bay's request, everyone showed up at the conference at 1 pm.He chose the afternoon as there were a handful who were away on outreach, including Walker, who was subbing for Jacob's lectures.Once the entire Calligraphy and Painting Association save for Jacob was informed of the mandatory meeting, every member was there on the hour, seated primly and in attention in the huge conference room.Mr. Bay didn't waste his breath on the preamble either—as soon as he saw that everyone had arrived, he announced, "Everyone, I've gathered you here today because our administrative vice-president, Jacob Wilson, has been alleged to be involved in a certain malicious scheme."Last night, Mr. Wilson submitted his resignation to me, and after a discussion with my vice-presidents, we've all decided to hold a vote. It will be open to every member in the association as we will be decid
