Chapter 1256

Author: Lord Leaf
“What the hell?”

When Francis’s mother heard this, everything turned dark in front of her eyes!

One hundred million dollars? What was this?

Even if the other party had one million dollars, he would already be a very incredible rich man in her eyes. If he had ten million dollars, he would be a big and powerful figure that they could not afford to offend. If he had one hundred million dollars, he would be a god!

What’s more, they did not just have a net worth of one hundred million dollars but they were actually driving two cars worth more than one hundred million dollars!

As she thought about this, she hurriedly asked, “Are you telling me the truth? Are these two weird-looking cars really worth so much money?”

Francis nodded as he tried to pull his mother up and said, “Do you think that I’d lie to you? Do you think that I don’t want a new house? But in this case, how can we even try to force it? Our family will suffer and be in deep shit if we offend a big and powerful figure!”

Generally speaking, the price of any random wedding dr

    Since Claire was so good to her, Magnolia felt that Claire would definitely not harm her in any way.Charlie drove the car directly to Jasmine’s bridal shop.Even Claire was a little surprised when he stopped the car.She had just asked him to look for a friend so they could borrow a better wedding dress from them. However, she really did not expect him to be able to borrow a wedding dress here!This was the store owned by the world’s top wedding dress designer, Vera Wang!Even Claire did not dare to expect to have the opportunity to wear such a top and luxurious wedding dress.Moreover, she really did not expect her husband to be so resourceful even in this area.Could it be that the bridal shop also requested for Charlie’s help to look at their Feng Shui?As she was deep in thoughts, Charlie had already pushed his car door open as he got out of the car.At this time, a tall, charming and noble woman walked out of the bridal shop. Claire realized that she knew who this woman

    Claire and Magnolia were both a little nervous as they wondered whether they should go in at this time.Both of them knew very well that this brand of wedding dresses was very expensive. Moreover, it was by no means affordable for ordinary people.It would already cost them about tens of thousands of dollars to rent a high-end custom wedding dress at any general bridal shop.These wedding dresses were designed by Vera Wang and it would cost them at least six figures to rent any one of their wedding dresses for a day.If they were to buy one of these wedding dresses, then it would be even more expensive and it would cost at least several million dollars!Magnolia felt that she was not worthy of such an expensive wedding dress. Even if she were to just touch the wedding dress, she was afraid that she would not be able to afford to repay the other party for the wedding dress if she damaged it.So, how could she possibly dare to attend her wedding in such an expensive wedding dress?

    Claire helped her choose a very beautiful wedding dress with a tube top. After that, she said, “I think this one suits you very well. It is very dignified and elegant and it will also reveal your collarbone, which is very temperamental.”Magnolia hesitated for a moment before she said, “We’ll just go with your suggestion then. I really don’t know how to choose…”Jasmine smiled as she said, “Mrs. Wade has very good taste. This wedding dress had the highest ratings and preference here. I too think that this wedding dress suits Miss Zevell’s figure and temperament very well.”Immediately after that, Jasmine asked two very professional bridal shop assistants to come over. Both of them immediately took the wedding dress before they respectfully led Magnolia to the fitting room.After a few minutes, Magnolia came out wearing a white and elegant wedding dress with a tube top. She felt a little unnatural as she walked out of the fitting room.Claire’s eyes lit up immediately as she exclai

    Claire suddenly felt jealous at this moment.She guessed that Jasmine must have had a very good impression of her husband, Charlie.Otherwise, she would not be looking at her husband like this.This made Claire suddenly realize that she and her husband were not close and intimate enough. That was the reason why there was still a certain distance between them.This distance would make it especially easy for a third party to intervene in their relationship.If they both had very close and deep feelings for one another and if their hearts were close to one another, then it would be naturally impossible for them to leave any gaps for a third party to interfere in their relationship.As she thought about this, Claire suddenly felt an unprecedented impulse.At this moment, Charlie saw that Claire was still in a daze and he said to her quickly, “Dear, we have to leave quickly or we’ll be late.”Claire only recovered her senses then before she nodded unnaturally and said hurriedly, “Th

    At this time, Draco’s father who was standing aside also said, “Draco, you should really listen to your parents regarding this matter. The most important thing when you’re getting married is to find a bride from a family that is an appropriate match with us in terms of social status. The Scotson family might not be a very wealthy or powerful family but we also have a net worth of tens of millions of dollars. Among our family, relatives, and friends, our family is considered the wealthiest of all. If you listen to me and find another young lady who is equally matched or even richer than our family, then the strength of our family will be even more outstanding in the Scotson family.”Having said this, his father sighed regretfully as he said, “You’re such a disobedient child. You could have looked for any young woman but you found a woman who comes from such a poor family. Wouldn’t our relatives and friends treat us as a laughing stock then?”Draco felt incomparable pain and suffering

    The pitiful Draco did not even know what kind of plot his parents were hatching at this time.He was still waiting for his most beloved woman to appear.However, as time passed, he also began to feel a little worried.He was not afraid that Magnolia would change her mind. However, he was just afraid that Magnolia’s parents would not agree to let her marry him today.At this time, there was the roaring sound of a super sports car on the road.Every one of the Scotson family’s relatives and friends were all attracted to the beast-like roaring sound.Then, someone shouted, “F*ck! It turns out to be the Bugatti Veyron!”“Seriously!” Draco’s cousin, Hans Scotson, looked at the Bugatti Veyron that was approaching in the distance as he said in amazement, “This is a Hermes limited edition Bugatti Veyron and there is only one of this car available in this whole country! I saw this car at the Aurous Hill International Automobile Show some time ago. It is said that a mysterious and wealthy

    Everyone was even more surprised at this time.Were these two cars really heading for the banquet hall?There was only one family who would be holding a wedding in the banquet hall today. Could they really be here for the wedding?However, every member of the Scotson family understood very well in their hearts. In the entire Scotson family, Draco’s father was indeed the wealthiest amongst them. However, he only had about tens of millions of dollars’ worth of assets. As for the others, they would probably have about ten million dollars, and those who were not so well off would probably have about a few million dollars’ worth of assets. At most, they could only be regarded as part of the middle class in Aurous Hill and they could not be regarded as being part of the upper class at all.So, given their family social status, how could they possibly have such a powerful friend?As everyone was still feeling puzzled, Charlie took the initiative to open the car door of the Bugatti Veyron

    Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he

    As Yolden and Matilda were remarrying after living abroad for years, the wedding ceremony was much simpler, skipping Oskian customs and having a simple wedding reception for their guests at the hotel hall.There weren't that many guests either—aside from their children and close friends, only a handful of Yolden's colleagues at Aurous Hill University were invited.As the celebrant, Charlie didn't have much to do and was mainly the emcee.He brought along his jacket as he headed out to Shangri-La, not wearing it immediately so that Claire wouldn't guess that he was attending Matilda's wedding.Arriving at the Hanging Gardens before the guests were supposed to arrive, he found Yolden working with the staff to finalize the preparations.Seeing Charlie, Yolden approached him and said, "Thanks for coming this early, Charlie."Noticing that he was a little tired, Charlie asked in concern, "Had a bad night?"Yolden nodded, sighing, "Paul's uncle caused a huge mess. Both Matilda and I a

    Tarlon nodded. "How do you suggest we find them?"Fleur scowled. "There's no rush. There are things which I'm still confused about, so just keep a close eye on the Ackers and the Wades for the time being. Report to me right away if anything important comes up—don't afford our enemies any opportunities to exploit.""Yes, milady!" -The next day, more news outlets were covering the joint project between the Ackers and the Wades as word continued to spread.However, neither family revealed too many details, be it the name of the company, who was the CEO, or the scale of their business.While the public was dying with curiosity, nothing else was known.Still, Aurous Hill's officials were especially interested, with the town hall visiting the Ackers the next day and showing utmost sincerity by leasing a whopping 2-million-square-meter land along the southern highway. Still, the condition was for the Ackers to come true on their promise to propel the city's economy to 15 billion US d

    Fleur had repeatedly mentioned the conspiracy theory of Ashley using a body double over the last twenty years.Tarlon had investigated from many different angles, but everything from the gender, age, dental records, to body figure pointed to the fact that the deceased was Ashley Acker.And yet, Fleur had never bought it, insisting that Curtis was prepared for them just because Curtis' son had gone missing soon after.There was no way Curtis would save his son but not his wife, and the disfigured corpse only added fuel to Fleur's suspicion.Thus, over the last twenty years, Fleur had kept a close eye on the Ackers, arranging for two 'scholars' to be embedded amongst their ranks as sleeper agents. She went that far all to determine if Ashley was dead or had faked her death.However, the scholars had since been killed in action, and they had no spies within the Ackers left.As for Tarlon, he still doubted Fleur's theory even now, but he remained respectful as he spoke, "Milady, I mu

    Meanwhile, on the edge of the South Pole, Tarlon Griffin rushed outside of Fleur Griffin's room, knocking the door gingerly as he announced, "I have news, my lady!"Fleur didn't respond, but the thick wooden door between them slowly opened as if pushed by an invisible force.Tarlon entered to find Fleur seated on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles. Her eyes remained closed as she molded her Reiki, asking, "What is it?"Tarlon quickly answered, "News from Oskia. The Ackers are partnering with the Wades on a joint venture into electric-powered vehicles."Fleur slowly opened her eyes, asking quietly, "And you're telling me because?"Tarlon quickly explained, "It just came out of the blue, so I thought I should report it to you right away."Fleur sighed. "After I tried and failed to wipe out the Ackers so many times, they wouldn't dare set foot stateside. If anything, they must have decided to seek asylum in Oskia by offering a substantial investment, and it's a base whe

    Silent for a while, Matilda then asked Yolden, "Do you think I can do it?""Yes!" Yolden nodded without hesitation. "You definitely won't have any problems!"Matilda sighed, shaking her head. "We traveled far abroad to study while we were young, but we didn't return to Oskia to help the country's development. It's been thirty years since, and now that we have returned to the country at the same time, I definitely wouldn't turn down such an opportunity to help."Pausing, she then said, "That said, major corporations make it a point to not hire family members. Forget spouses—employees aren't allowed to date, and one of the two will be asked to resign if necessary."Don't you think it's inappropriate since we are legally married, having gotten our certificate and all? And if we set these precedents, we would have trouble asking other employees to follow that policy. You are going to be a CEO, so you need a very clear answer on this issue."Yolden shrugged. "In the first place, that p

    Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

    "That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

    In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega
