When Lady Wilson heard that the estimated value of these two cars would amount to almost one hundred million dollars, she could not help but shudder at the thought of it.Two cars would add up to one hundred million dollars? What the hell was this? These two cars were almost worth the price of a first class villa at Thompson First.She had already felt that she was very incredible because she had spent three million dollars on a car. That could only mean that Charlie’s car was worth more than thirty of the cars that she had bought.The old lady could not help but feel extremely uncomfortable.She initially thought that she would be able to humiliate others. Unexpectedly, she had only ended up humiliating herself.The point was, would someone actually be willing to spend so much money on an expensive car? Was he crazy?Only a car made out of pure gold would be worth that price, right?Lady Wilson was feeling very indignant. Harold, who was standing aside, was afraid that the old

Lady Wilson shook her head.She really could not come up with any good plans under this kind of situation.Wendy said, “Grandma, why don’t we try to use Wilson Group to suppress Claire’s studio then?”“That does not make any sense.” Lady Wilson replied solemnly, “All of Claire’s orders are from Emgrand Group, the White family and the Quinton family. How are we supposed to suppress her in any way?”“That is also true…”Wendy could not help but feel extremely annoyed.She had always been comparing herself to Claire in various ways. This made her feel a lot of hatred and resentment towards Claire deep down in her heart.Unexpectedly, Claire and Charlie were not suffering or having a bad time at all. Instead, they were both enjoying a very good life right now. This made her feel extremely uncomfortable.Wendy felt a lot of hatred and envy towards Claire when she thought about how Charlie could afford to own two top luxury cars that even Gerald could only hope for.How could Claire

What Christopher hated the most was not Hannah who had made a cuckold out of him but instead, it was Elaine who had insulted him again and again.Christopher really felt like crushing Elaine to pieces whenever he thought about the twenty green hats that were fluttering in the wind on Elaine’s balcony.Every time those twenty green hats swayed as the wind blew, it was like a merciless lash whipping at him.So, he felt that if they wanted to exact revenge, it would definitely be most appropriate for them to start from Elaine.Most importantly, they would not arouse Charlie’s hatred if they exacted revenge on Elaine.Otherwise, if they started attacking Claire, then it would be tantamount to rubbing Charlie the wrong way. That way, it was very likely that they would lose their lives then.Even Donald did not dare to attack Claire. So, his family would naturally not dare to cause such trouble for themselves.Christopher’s suggestion immediately gained his whole family’s approval.A

Claire’s high school classmate was getting married the next day.The couple drove a super sports car each as they set off at dawn from the villa at Thompson First to Wylland Park, which was a suburb in Aurous Hill.Wylland Park was about sixty kilometers away from the city center. Although it was a little far away, fortunately, there was a direct highway leading from the city center directly to Wylland Park.Claire’s high school classmate lived in the outskirts of Wylland Park. When they had both followed the directions on the navigation system to the community where the other party lived at, they discovered that it turned out to be an old community that was probably at least twenty to thirty years old.All the houses in this community were no more than six floors high and the houses were all built very densely together. The green paint on the outside of the houses was all already mottled, revealing the color of the cement.The entrance of the community was also very narrow. In ad

As soon as he heard this, Charlie asked Claire curiously, “What? She’s getting married today and she only informed you about it?”“Yes…” Claire replied. “She wants me to come and help her out. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t be able to handle everything on her own. I was originally planning to ask her to look for a few old classmates to help her prepare for her wedding. It would be great if they could come just to cheer her up too but she’s not willing to do that.”Charlie replied helplessly, “I guess she doesn’t want to lose face in front of too many of her old classmates. So, it’s actually understandable.”Claire nodded slightly before she said, “I have never seen her being so pitiful before. It is her most important wedding day but her own natal family and her in-laws are both giving her trouble…”As she spoke, Claire could only sigh as she said, “Charlie, in fact, I think I was really fortunate to marry you. If I was really forced by my family to marry a rich heir from a wealthy

At this time, a middle-aged man shouted in a cold voice, “This boy’s family is really bullying and taking advantage of others. You’re already pregnant with their grandchild and they aren’t even willing to give you any dowry at all. Aren’t they afraid that you’re going to abort the baby?”A young man replied, “Why would the Scotson family be afraid? They wish that my sister would abort the baby. This is because they despise and look down on my sister and they think that my sister isn’t worthy of marrying into their family.”After that, he continued speaking, “Sister, why does it seem as though you’re obsessed? Why do you have to marry that guy with the last name Scotson? That b*stard and his whole family are all so wicked! Why don’t you ask around our community and see if there are any other girls who did not receive a dowry from their in-laws when they were getting married? My good friend Samuel’s sister got married to an ordinary man from the next county and the guy’s family gave my

At this time, the abusive voice upstairs had already escalated.The middle-aged woman scolded angrily, “How did I even give birth to a wastrel like you? I worked so hard to support you and pay for your university education. You haven’t even made much money for our family for the past two years and now, you’re already rushing off to give birth to a child for someone else. If I had known that you’d be such an unconscionable person, then I should have thrown you away after I gave birth to you!”The young woman cried as she said, “Mom, the reason why I could attend university is entirely because I was relying on student loans! I’m still repaying the student loan right now. At that time, you did not even allow me to go to university. You even wanted to marry me off when I was just eighteen years old. You told me that the earlier a girl marries, the more valuable it will be!”“I tried my best to get admitted into university but you still refused to let me attend university. You even tried

After she was done speaking, she introduced Charlie to the young boy. “Francis, this is my husband, Charlie.”“Husband?” Francis asked in surprise. “Claire, you’re married already?”Claire nodded slightly before she smiled and said, “Yes, I’ve already been married for more than three years now. Where’s your sister? Is she at home?”At this time, a young girl with a five-fingerprint mark on her face came over as she faked a smile on her face and said, “Claire, you’re here!”This girl was also quite beautiful and she has a very good figure too. She was definitely someone from the upper middle class.However, the girl was obviously wearing a very cheap wedding dress. It could even be seen that some of the lacey parts of the wedding dress was already torn.A man and woman suddenly walked out of the room at this time. The couple looked like they were both in their early fifties and they had very cold expressions on their faces at this time. When they saw Claire, the couple looked at M

Helena waved her hand dismissively. "You don't have to. As you mentioned, procuring the hardware for the AI models comes with its own costs. I'd rather take a loss myself than let you suffer. After all, you're already of such an age, and having had a stroke once before. If you end up losing something and it affects your mood, leading to a relapse, wouldn't that make me the bad guy?" "No, no, no!" Harrison, ignoring the subtle mockery, hurried over to Helena with great urgency and reassured, almost desperately, "Buying the hardware for Your Majesty is something we should do. Please accept it." As he said it, he lamented with regret, "Your Highness, I'm old, and my mindset is molded in the conservative mode because of decades of experience, and bargaining is one of them. Nevertheless, please rest assured that we will never again bargain when doing business with you." After experiencing the powerful effect of the Healing Pill, Harrison keenly realized that the pill must be a life-sa

Harrison immediately caught the implication in her words and, with a smile, said, "Your Majesty, you are truly a brilliant negotiator. I've never seen someone so young yet able to control the pace of negotiations so skillfully! With you at the helm, the Nordic royal family is sure to soar to new heights!" Helena smiled and said, "You think too highly of me. I can control the rhythm well because I have a good mentor." "I wonder who your mentor is?" Harrison asked curiously. "I would like to meet him if there is a chance." Helena said lightly, "My mentor prefers to act with a low profile and isn't fond of the vanity that comes with fame, but I believe that you will have the opportunity to meet him in the future." "That would be wonderful!" Harrison replied with a beam. Helena then said, "It's getting late. I'll take my leave now." Harrison nodded. As he saw Helena turn to leave, he remembered something and hurriedly called after her, "Hold on, Your Majesty!" "Yes, Mr. Roths

Seeing Harrison with his head down in deep thought, Helena knew he definitely wouldn't follow the original plan to pass the position of family head to Julien. Sure enough, Harrison lifted his head with a chuckle and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to New York and attend my family meeting to establish the heir. Your presence truly brings us great honor!" Feigning a surprised expression, Helena asked, "Aren't we going to announce Julien's succession today? Why have you changed your mind?" Harrison waved her off and, with a slightly embarrassed smile, said, "Plans can't keep up with changes, and changes always outpace plans. Until this morning, I never imagined I could regain my health. Don't you think so?" Helena smiled slightly. "Your recovery is partly due to Julien's devotion, which seems to have touched God himself." Despite what she said, she couldn't help mumbling under her breath, "Harrison really did change his mind,

The wealth of the Rothschild family had long been beyond the estimation or calculation of outsiders. Over the years, they had made both visible and hidden investments in countless fields. All offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands, as long as they remained unlisted, were not required to disclose shareholder information. Among them were numerous companies in which the Rothschild family held shares or even controls. The true value of these holdings was impossible to verify. Even for listed companies, shareholder information was only disclosed in the primary market. The secondary market was bought and held through various channels that were impossible to count. In addition, the Rothschild family had investments in real estate, energy, mining, transportation, and other areas around the world. It could be said that any industry that was at the forefront of the trend could make enormous wealth. In colonial times, Britain was known as the em

Since both Harrison and Helena had reached an agreement, Helena took out a pen and amended the details of the contract. The whole process was recorded, and coupled with Helena's identity as the Nordic Queen and the high traffic on the internet, she was not at all worried that Harrison would go back on his word. After the two sides agreed on the terms of the contract, Harrison wrote his name on the contract, and then the two sides exchanged agreements, and the contract was officially in effect. After everything was settled, Helena put the contract away, turned off the video recording on her phone, and beamed, "It's been a pleasure working together, Mr. Rothschild!" Harrison hastily asked, "Y-Your Majesty, can you please give me the pill now?" "Of course." Helena handed him the pill swiftly and said, "Even though my family doesn't have a lot of money, we always attach great importance to the spirit of the contract." Harrison stretched out his trembling hand and took the pill.

Helena said, "Mr. Harrison, your family is involved in almost all of the institutions that are major shareholders of Nvidia, and you also hold a lot of floating shares in the secondary market. You got these shares very early, and the chips were very low. As Nvidia's stock price has gone up to over 1 trillion, you have made a lot of money." Harrison had just breathed a sigh of relief when he received a concession of 10 billion, so when Helena started to talk about his past, he quickly explained, "Business is business... Whatever we earn from Nvidia shouldn't be mixed with this matter, w-w-wouldn't you agree, Your Majesty?" "Agreed." Helena nodded. "However, since I'm granting you a hundred billion in hardware costs, this absolutely ties back to Nvidia. You'll ultimately need to procure the AI model hardware through them, and as a shareholder, any bulk orders from Nvidia will effectively be you moving money from one hand to the other." "First, even if the listed cost is a hundred b

Helena was not afflicted by Harrison's annoyance. She said lightly, "Calm down, Mr. Harrison. I haven't finished." After a short pause, she continued, "I want your model for my own use, not for any commercial use, which means it will have no impact on your original market. I just want a completely identical replica for my own use. For you, it's nothing more than giving me a copy, a set of hardware, and twenty years of maintenance fee. That shouldn't cost much, right?" "H-How can I be sure that y-you won't use it for commercial purposes?" Helena smiled and said, "That's the specific detail I'll talk about next. You will still pay me 100 billion dollars, but I will sign a contract with you stating that 50 billion dollars of that will be returned to you at the rate of 2.5 billion dollars per year for the next 20 years. "If you stop upgrading and maintaining the model, I will stop the subsequent return of the money." "If I use your AI model for commercial purposes, you can immedi

Helena added, "In fact, Mr. Rothschild, if you were willing to sacrifice yourself for the family's sake, you could save this money and allow it to contribute to the future development of the family. Who knows—perhaps your descendants would even build a monument in your honor." Feeling a sharp pain in his abdomen, Harrison covered his stomach and waved her off. "Alright, t-that's enough. Since it's a deal, y-you name your price, a-and I can negotiate, so let me give you... a one-and-done price." With that, he held up five fingers, resolutely declaring, "50 billion dollars! Not a penny more! Any more, and even if I regain my health, I'll feel miserable. Just thinking about spending hundreds of billions on a single pill might ruin my happiness in old age." The thought of spending hundreds of billions of dollars on a single pill genuinely pained Harrison. Some people, even without money, still acted generous. But some, when they had wealth, became increasingly stingy. Some believ

Harrison initially thought that 100 million dollars was already an astronomical figure and that offering this amount would sufficiently demonstrate his sincerity. However, he never expected that Helena, upon hearing this offer, couldn't even be bothered to negotiate and would turn to leave. He had just felt the tangible effects of the medicine. If one-tenth had such an impact, taking a whole pill would undoubtedly restore him to his former self. He couldn't afford to miss this rare opportunity. So, he quickly called out, "Your Majesty! Whatever the matter is, we can discuss it, b-but why are you leaving?" Helena explained lightly, "I have never liked to negotiate partnerships with ignorant people. If you believe your health is worth only 100 million dollars, then, frankly, what is there left for me to discuss with you? Although I may not have as much money as you, in my view, my health is certainly worth more than that amount." Harrison was rendered speechless. He hadn't ex
