The relationship between the prestigious families of Eastcliff was very intricate. Noble intermarriage was a common practice between these families, similar to the royal intermarriage where members of the ruling dynasties married into other reigning families.After all, every family had both male and female offspring, and when they reached the marriageable age, they were bound to look for suitable spouses. Since it was impossible for them to choose a spouse from ordinary families, their only options were the descendants among the prestigious families.It could be said that all of these prestigious families were more or less related by marriage between each other. In fact, some families that had many offspring would extend their intermarriage practice to the large network of other prominent families.In Europe, royal intermarriage was very common among monarchies where their kings and queens were related to each other, and this was because the royal families throughout Europe were

After a series of inspections and examinations, the doctor concluded that Dylan’s grandmother had indeed injured her tailbone and needed at least a week of bed rest.Because the old lady was in extreme pain, the doctor gave her a numbing injection and a painkiller injection.Dylan followed his mother to his grandmother’s ward, embarrassed.As soon as he entered the ward, his father Leonard quickly walked up and slapped him across the face with all his force, and chided loudly, “You hopeless b*stard! You’re beyond redemption! Luckily your grandmother hasn’t injured herself badly, or I’d f*cking kill you otherwise!”Dylan had never been punished since young. His father’s abrupt slap made him dumbfounded and aggrieved.His grandmother was a little heartbroken to see his grandson being slapped, so she said, “Leonard, that’s enough. Dylan is still young, it’s normal for the youngsters to behave like this although it isn’t glorious.”Lord Koch was not as magnanimous as his wife. He gla

It was only after the surgery that the ruby necklace was finally removed from the miserable Dylan’s intestines.What awaited him was fifteen days of absolute bed rest, so he had to lie down in the VIP room of his family’s hospital like a mummy.As the continuous usage of the patient-controlled epidural analgesia pump could cause damage to the body, the pump was removed at the second of his surgery, which was followed by the constant pain as he wiggled on the bed in an excruciating grimace.The more intense the pain was, the more intense the hatred he had toward Charlie.He couldn’t wait to recover quickly and then make his way to Aurous Hill to settle the score with Charlie. It would be best to cut him into a million pieces to restore his tarnished reputation as the third young master of the Koch family.Charlie, on the other hand, couldn’t care less about him.Claire’s high school friend was getting married over the weekend. Since he had promised his wife that he would borrow th

Claire said a little anxiously, “I’m afraid that I’m not good at driving these cars. Their engines are extremely powerful, so I fear I’ll lose control and subsequently cause an accident. It would be troublesome if I scratch their cars.”Charlie said with a gentle smile, “Don’t worry, dear. Don’t put too much burden on yourself, just think of them as our own cars.”Claire uttered, “You’d better teach me how to drive these cars, which button does what, and so on.”Charlie nodded. “Alright, come, I’ll teach you how to drive this Bugatti.”At this moment, a brand new Bentley Continental cruised into the Thompson First villa complex.The one behind the wheel was Harold, who was dressed in a smart suit that didn’t match his grisly face.Sitting in the front passenger seat was his father, Christopher.In the back row sat Lady Wilson and Wendy.Recently, the money that the Webb family had promised them had been transferred into the Wilson family’s account. They had used the money to re

Lady Wilson had always despised Charlie and his family.When she had begged them to return to the family, they refused to the very end. Now that she had obtained a huge investment from the Webb family, she didn’t need to take them seriously at all.Besides, she felt that Charlie and the family were simply appearing strong outwardly while they were actually weak inwardly.Although they lived in the luxurious Thompson First villa, that was all they had.Charlie and Jacob had no jobs and no income, simply lingering around the house all day.Claire owned an office, but the scale of her business was very small and the revenue generated from her own business seemed scarce at the moment.Hence, Lady Wilson was convinced that despite them living in the Thompson First villa, it was because they were barely able to afford to live in it, but realistically speaking, they were not as rich as she currently was.Previously, when she needed their support and begged them to return to the family,

Elaine was lying on the bed, watching a drama on her phone. She was bored to tears since she couldn’t go anywhere due to her injury, hence, she spent her time watching dramas.When the drama was at the peak of its plot, the loud and ear-deafening honk echoed continuously from outside her house which irritated her to the extreme. She stomped to the balcony to have a look and saw a brand new Bentley parked in front of her house. The annoying honking came from the same car.Elaine shouted angrily, “Hey, who the f*ck are you? Are you f*cking crazy? Why are you honking in front of my house?”Christopher saw Elaine standing on the balcony yelling expletives through the car window. He grinned and said, “Look, Mom, the shrew is out cursing!”“Haha!” Lady Wilson was overjoyed by Elaine’s reaction and said, “That shrew loves money the most, and if she knows that we are getting back on track, she’ll be so pissed off and jealous. I’ll create an illusion inside her head that I’m willing to acce

Upon hearing Lady Wilson’s words, Elaine was taken aback and upset.Did someone really invest in the Wilson family? Was he or she crazy?Among the lousy few that were left in the Wilson family, who could they bring to the table? It was absolutely impossible that these people could get Wilson Group back on track! Investing in their company would be like throwing money down the drain!Thinking of this, Elaine immediately sneered. “Hey, old bat, please drop your pathetic act in front of me. Based on what I know about you and your lousy family members, even if Wilson Group reopens, it will definitely go bankrupt again in a few days. Just look at what you have left in the feeble family of yours! What can you expect from Harold the loser anyway? You should be thankful if he doesn’t spend all your money!”Elaine’s remarks also hit Lady Wilson’s sore spot.Although Donald Webb had invested in their company, it in no way meant that they would be able to be at ease in the future.After all

In Lady Wilson’s opinion, vanity was the great flaw in Elaine’s character. Besides, she was also very greedy and a freeloader. If Lady Wilson were to give her a Bentley for real, she would definitely try to persuade Claire to succumb to her request.However, Lady Wilson overlooked another attribute in Elaine’s character, which was holding a grudge!Elaine loved to gain advantages by unfair means, but she held grudges to the extreme.Previously, she had been persuading Claire to return to Wilson Group because she had no grudge against Lady Wilson other than some minor conflicts.These minor conflicts wouldn’t have any effect on Elaine when it came to money.The tables had turned now!Elaine’s hostility towards Lady Wilson went off the charts!When they were in the detention center, Lady Wilson had influenced Jennifer to torture Elaine severely. Not only did they torture her by all means but they had also broken her leg before she left. Because of these tormenting experiences, Ela

Ares LLP was the biggest law firm in the States, and only the best of the best were recruited as associates.If Jimmy got to pick ten of their partners, he was basically taking a huge chunk out of their human resources.Moreover, the partners' salaries would be very expensive. With Jimmy included, eleven of them meant over a hundred million US dollars at minimum. Ares would definitely be maimed if they had to pay that much money while losing ten of their elites! Naturally, Jimmy didn't feel confident about achieving that, and he asked Charlie, "Mr. Wade… Don't you think it's too much? Would Nate even agree to that?"Charlie shrugged. "Of course he won't agree if you're the one asking, but he would definitely say yes if it were Julien."Julien almost rolled his eyes.The man was truly ruthless, ready to inflict so much damage at the drop of a hat.Worst of all, he was going to play the villain for Charlie.Still, he said confidently, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade! I will pressure him

However, Jimmy realized something important even as he sighed in relief. "Wait, Mr. Wade… I know I should settle things in the family Stateside, but won't I be arrested upon arrival?""That's Julien's department," Charlie chuckled and turned toward the man. "Tell your butler not to send the evidence to the feds. If it has reached them already, ask to have it back and tell the feds they saw nothing."Julien promptly nodded. "I'll text him right now. You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Wade."Jimmy remained worried. "But sir, I think Nate's not going to let this slide. The man is cunning—he deliberately dug a pit so we'd fall into it, and he gathered all the dirt he could on us to be used as leverage when necessary."Charlie shook his head. "That's no big deal. Julien can make sure that you're fine even if the feds get the evidence."Julien nodded nearby. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. The decision remains in your hands, either way. Just say the word, and it's 25 to life… otherwise, not e

The fact that Jimmy was a partner in Ares LLP already meant he had skill, while Matilda had herself been retired for years and definitely had lost her touch a little. So, having someone like Jimmy who had stayed on the frontlines all this while would definitely be no issue.And in turn, it was a good thing for Jimmy as it was better than the kennels either way.Charlie then asked Jimmy pointedly, "You say you're interested, but are you sincere about it?"Jimmy nodded without hesitation. "Yes, absolutely!""No regrets? We're talking about ten years here.""None, absolutely none!""Do you know what to say if anyone asks?""Yes, of course! I chose to further my career here in Oskia, and it was absolutely voluntary! That's what I'd say even if my family asked!"Charlie nodded. "Good. Then, you will have two weeks. Go home and set your affairs in order and report in for work afterward.""No problem!" Jimmy nodded repeatedly, actually surprised and grateful that Charlie would let hi

And yet, Julien was suddenly clapping his hands, and exclaiming excitedly, "Yes, right! We should get his wife and son over too for a happy reunion!"He then paused and quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no! I mean, they should each be caged with one empty cage separating each of their cages. They can see each other and talk, but there will be no touching. How dare he flex on me—I gotta teach him a lesson to remember!"Jimmy dropped limply on his rump, and Matilda beckoned for Paul to help him up while turning toward Julien as she pursed her lips. "Please, Mr. Rothschild… Even if you don't accept his apology, don't bring his family into this. It's against Oskian tradition—you'd insult your family's name!"Julien shrugged, not hesitating to retort, "What do your traditions have to do with me? If I mean to hurt him, forget his family—I'll drag his dogs over too!"Seeing that Julien was so furious, Charlie decided to stop him, or he might actually go through with it."That's enough, J

Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott
