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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1265
Just as everyone from the Scotson family was dumbfounded, Claire also got out from the Aston Martin’s driver seat.Claire looked at Draco before she smiled politely and said, “Draco, we’ve not seen each other for quite some time already. Congratulations to you and Magnolia! I hope that the two of you will have a happy marriage!”Draco was also shocked when he saw Claire.Claire was Magnolia’s high school classmate who was also one of Magnolia’s close friends. Therefore, he had already met Claire several times because of Magnolia and they could both be considered acquaintances.Moreover, Draco had already heard of Claire’s family situation before. He heard that Claire’s family had a company specializing in renovation and refurbishment works. However, it was just a small company and not a large scale company. She had also married a live-in son-in-law and it seemed as though the live-in son-in-law was not very capable at all.However, in his mind, Wilson Group was just a company with

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
