When Magnolia heard Lilian’s words, tears started flowing down her cheeks immediately.When Draco saw his fiancée getting reprimanded and humiliated by his own mother, he could not tolerate it any longer. Therefore, he hurriedly said, “Mom! Magnolia and I will be spending the rest of our lives together after we get married. We don’t care about anything else as long as the both of us can live well and happily together. So, you shouldn’t mind it too much too. It isn’t early anymore. Can we just prepare to proceed with the wedding now?”“No way!” Lilian looked at Magnolia with disgust before she said contemptuously, “I can’t get over the anger I’m feeling right now. Ever since I got married to your father, I’ve never suffered such a huge grievance in my life. Her family is obviously the one benefitting and climbing up the social ladder after she marries you. So, why does it seem as though we’re the one who would be benefiting from this marriage instead? Your father and I have already be

Lilian had always disagreed with her son and Magnolia’s marriage.However, the reason why she had agreed to hold the wedding today was because she wanted to wash her hands of it as much as she could.Therefore, she decided to embarrass and humiliate Magnolia and her family today. She wanted to make it seem as though she was unable to lift her head up high in front of her relatives and friends because of Magnolia’s parents today. With this alone, she would be able to stand on the moral high ground and refuse to allow Magnolia to marry into her family today.This was also representative of what smart parents would do in their daily lives.Smart parents would never give their children an ultimatum whenever they had some kind of dispute with their children.If they made a resolute decision to reject their child’s decision without a doubt, then if their child could not get over the matter or pass the hurdle in the future, then the child would definitely blame or hate his parents in fut

There were two relatively large sales channels for his flour. One was the large supermarkets, such as Carrefour and Walmart. The other was through the medium-sized chain supermarkets such as the supermarkets owned by the Morningstar family.The flour mill industry had relatively low technology content and there was also fierce competition.There were many big grain and oil brands such as Bertolli and Adolphus in Oskia. Their brands were relatively strong and so, their products were also selling relatively well.Moreover, there were also at least a few other local flour brands in every city.So, a small brand like his own would only be able to generate a certain amount of sales locally and his sales were very dependent on the sales channels.If the sales channels gave him more display positions and bought more of his goods, then he would be able to make more money.However, if the sales channels did not give him any display positions or buy any of his goods, then he would not be a

Lilian felt very lost and confused at this time.The thirty million dollar dowry was certainly very attractive. However, the main point was that she would have to ask her son to marry a pregnant woman.Wasn’t this what people would often refer to as fathering someone else’s child?Although she was not a young person anymore, she still had some understanding of these buzzwords.However, when she thought about the fact that Mr. Morningstar had already offered a thirty million dowry and that he was also offering various resources to support their family, then Lilian began to look forward to it deep within her heart.In her opinion, as long as he was willing to give them a lot of money, then it would not be a big problem for her son to father someone else’s child.However, the crucial point of this matter was that it would be easy for her to explain things to her relatives and friends if the other party was pregnant with an Oskian child. She could just tell her relatives and friends

“As for the flour resources in the supermarket, most of it would have to be allocated to my family. If they agree to my conditions, then we don’t even need to decide on any dates. After all, I’ve already set up a banquet here today and there are no names written on the wedding arch yet. You can just ask Mr. Morningstar to send his daughter over here and we can just hold the wedding here today.”After she spoke, Lilian smiled and said, “Madeline, their daughter is already pregnant so it would also be better for them not to delay this matter any further. The sooner, the better. In addition, Madeline, if you assist me with this matter, then I’ll also give you two million dollars as a reward!”The main reason why Madeline was so enthusiastic about running this errand was because Mr. Morningstar had already promised her that if she could find someone who would willingly accept his daughter and her baby, then he would also give her five million dollars as a reward.After all, Mr. Mornings

Mr. Morningstar felt a sense of relief after hearing those words.All his worries were due to the fear of tarnishing his daughter’s name, which would eventually affect her future happiness.Now, right in front of him was a good candidate to be his son-in-law. The most surprising part was that he didn’t even mind having an immediate wedding and was able to make an instant arrangement for it. This kind of guy was hard to find.Therefore, he gave it some thought for a moment before immediately answering, “No problem! Go back and tell your family, fifty million dollars! There won’t be a dollar less, don’t you worry. I will bring my daughter over immediately. We can organize the wedding ceremony on the groom's side first, and then I will invite my family and friends over tomorrow to organize the wedding on my side. Once the ceremonies are done, the wedding can be considered complete.”Madeline spoke excitedly, “Mr. Morningstar is the best! Being able to make big decisions so easily and make

Lilian waved her hands. “If he dares to disagree, his father and I will cut all ties with him! This is not the time for him to object!”After saying those words, Lilian paced toward Draco and Magnolia. With a cold and somber voice, she spoke, “Draco, I will only say this. If Magnolia cannot fork out thirty million dollars worth of dowry, I have no mood to even entertain the idea of marriage!”“Thirty million dollars?!” Draco and Magnolia shouted in shock!Draco couldn’t hold in his anger, and he blurted, “Mother, are you that poor till you’ve lost your mind? You just mentioned ten million, and in the blink of an eye, you’ve changed it to thirty million. Where in the world is Magnolia’s family going to get that crazy amount of money?! Even our family can’t fork out that much!”Lilian grabbed Draco’s sleeve and spoke, “Come with me, I have something to tell you.”She then proceeded to look at her husband and shout at the top of her lungs, “Old man Turk Scotson! Come here!”Mr. Scotson qu
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1275
After listening to the calculations, Mr. Scotson immediately made up his mind.He turned to face his son and spoke, “Draco, it’ll be a waste if you don’t pick this wife. Not only did they not request for a dowry, but instead, they are offering you tens of millions worth of dowry. This is an amazing chance!”Draco replied coldly, “Yes. It is very good indeed. It seems as though you don’t mind having a mixed-blood grandson.”Turk said without a shred of embarrassment, “After giving me fifty million dollars? I don’t mind at all! So what if it’s a mixed-blood grandson? For fifty million dollars, I don’t even mind if my son turns out to be of mixed-blood!”Draco snapped back, “Stop wasting your saliva. I am not agreeing to the wedding.”Turk sighed. His face was stern and his tone was firm. “My son. You’re really lacking in experience. You still don’t understand how things work. You’ve never experienced the pain of having no money. I really should have made you live a few days of suffering

"That would be me," Don Albert replied and asked in return, "And who are you? What's your business with me?"Mr. Bay quickly said, "Good evening, Don Albert. I'm Mr. Bay from the Calligraphy and Painting Association—we've met before.""Oh, Mr. Bay…" Don Albert did indeed recall who he was. "So, why have you called me?""I hope you don't mind—I had to ask a few friends to get your number…"Don Albert smiled as he already had a hunch that Mr. Bay was calling about Jacob. "I see. Just be straight with me now.""Okay, so here's the thing…" Mr. Bay promptly said, "Jacob and Zachary Evans really stirred some waves with what they did, and it's talked about a lot amongst the circles of antique enthusiasts in Aurous Hill… But I wonder if you've heard?"Don Albert sighed. "Yes, I've heard. Go on."Mr. Bay obliged. "Well, to be honest, it wasn't just a big deal amongst the circles of antique enthusiasts in Aurous Hill. Even the Calligraphy and Painting Association was affected. As you know

Having heard all of that, Julien promptly picked up his cup and chugged his drink, and he felt distinctly different as soon as the liquor touched his lips.While one would usually feel warm after drinking alcohol, like a thrilling burning sensation, this medicinal liquor was nourishing instead, almost as if every single one of Julien's sweat pores were revitalized.After all, it was the enhanced version of the Healing Pill, whose effect was more than double the prototype. That was why just a fifth was enough for Julien to feel two years younger.With the miraculous pill, he felt less tired, and sitting on the stool didn't hurt his rump or his hip.Even his sight was much sharper, his presbyopia clearing considerably.In short, his entire body had never felt this good!Even as he glanced at Raymond across the table, he could see that the other man's cheeks were flushed, and many of his wrinkles had smoothed over!It went without saying that Julien was envious as Raymond drank twi

Julien had made up his mind—Charlie had already dragged him into this anyway, and he certainly wouldn't stay as a slave who bemoaned his fate every day.He had boarded Charlie's ship, and the ship had sailed—he just had to come up with a plan so that he could stay on it without any problem.After all, the chances for him to become the next Rothschild head or how long he would get to live were banked entirely on Charlie's decision.If Charlie didn't want him as head, he just had to ask Helena to be his broker and sell some pills to old Harrison, and Julien would be forced to stay as the heir apparent to their empire until he expired.And since the decision was made, he must first show some sincerity by investing into Aurous Hill—it was the ideal way to bring in both capital and human resources.With Julien having indicated his position, Charlie smiled. "Aurous Hill is a land of wealth and prosperity. As a local, I keenly await your investment, Mr. Rothschild."Julien was worried f

Julien shook his head and gingerly asked, "Jordan Fox likes his granddaughter?"Charlie smiled, shaking his head. "And your father doesn't like you as his eldest? Admiration is no guarantee of inheritance. And if we're talking about love, is it not a gesture of love that he provided you with endless cash and a life of privilege that only the world's top one percent can enjoy?"Julien also noticed the flaw in his logic. "Then, do you perchance know why, Mr. Wade?"Charlie nodded. "Jordan granted his position to Kathleen because that was the condition I proposed to him in return for prolonging his life. No succession, no pills—no matter how much he was willing to pay me for it."Then, Charlie looked Julien straight in the eye as he continued solemnly, "If the day comes and I find you more reliable, I will choose you as the sole broker for your father's pills. Just think about it—if the day comes that you're the only person your father can get his pills from, would he say no if you as

Charlie chuckled. "You might think that I'm screwing you over, but in reality, I'm indirectly solidifying your place as heir apparent. From what I've learned, your family has not confirmed who it would be."Julien chuckled awkwardly. "You're right, but I am now. With the pills you've provided, however, my father might live longer than me…"Charlie nodded. "Since we have the fortune of meeting over drinks, I shall cut to the chase—to me, it doesn't matter who between you or your father lives longer. My priority is with whom I could hope for a better partnership."And right now, your father has shown more sincerity than you have, which was why I asked Helena to provide him with my pills."Pausing, Charlie then asked, "Are you aware of your father's recent activities? In Northern Europe?""A little," Julien replied. "A data center or something along those lines."Charlie nodded again. "See, I've asked Helena to make him a new offer—I will provide him with one pill should he build an

Charlie had actually invited Julien over to bring him aboard his metaphorical ship.While not particularly down-to-earth, Julien was still the second most important figure in the Rothschild family, and having him on board wouldn't hurt.Moreover, just having drinks with Charlie and Raymond here basically told everyone they were friends. If Harrison knew that Julien was meeting the son of Curtis Wade as well as 'Biden Cole', who had taken the Four-Sided Treasure Tower from the Rothstchilds, he just might have Julien shot.While Julien may not become the head of the Rothschild family anytime soon, he would prove very useful.With Helena basically controlling Harrison and Charlie himself controlling Julien, traveling Stateside would be no different from going home."It seems I must reevaluate my opinion of you now with that attitude."Charlie smiled at Julien and raised his cup, "Come, let's have a toast—to friendship."Julien nodded, picked up his cup, exclaiming cheerfully, "To f

Pausing, Julien then said, "I mostly drink wine and the occasional whiskey.""How much are those, usually?" Raymond asked.Julien thought about it. "If it's table wine, 10,000 to 50,000 USD. For bigger occasions, it'd be something over a hundred thousand."Raymond nodded and pointed at the bottle of Oskian vodka he had bought. "Guess how much that is?"Julein shook his head. "I don't usually drink Oskian alcohol, so I'm not too sure…""Come on," Charlie chuckled. "We're not asking if you know—we're just asking you to take a guess.""Then…" Julien quickly said. "I'm guessing, three thousand?""Three thousand?" Raymond chuckled and shook his head. "That's way too flattering. It's around 7 USD.""Seven bucks?!" Julien exclaimed, and he blurted, "You usually drink something that cheap, Mr. Cole?""Well, not stateside," Raymond smiled. "But I liked it after I ordered one from a diner yesterday. It's cheap, and it has quality."Julien gulped as he stared at his own cup filled to th

Julien flinched and promptly threw his hands up. "No, no, no… please don't say that, Mr. Wade! That's not what I mean—as a son, it's only right that I hope my father lives long and prospers. Why wouldn't I want him to?"Charlie pointed out, "Then why'd you say that I've screwed you over repeatedly?""Oh. I, uh…" Julien wasn't sure how to respond to that, and he groaned unhappily, "I was not being mindful with words. I take that back…" Charlie nodded. "Then, I'll give you another chance.""Huh?" Julien was left confused, and he quickly asked, "Another chance… for what?"Charlie clapped him on the shoulder again, smiling, "We're old friends, aren't we? Why would I screw you over? Anyway, your turn."Julien was left utterly aggrieved as he read through Charlie's intention—that was precisely the definition of screwing him over!If his father knew he had come to Aurous Hill to hang out with these two, especially Biden Cole, he would definitely be removed as heir! And yet, Charlie

Having seen a sliver of the common folk's plight, Julien turned back to the journey at hand.Soon, his MPV arrived at Aurous Hill's Antique Street.As it was closing hours, the place appeared bleak, almost as though it had been completely abandoned. It was only during opening hours and the few hours before closing that the place became most alive anyway.Most of the time, the vendors and employees outnumbered the guests, and during closing hours, it would get very quiet. One wouldn't even find strays here as there weren't scraps around.Still, Julien had no idea what the hell the place was, even as he arrived outside Treasure Measure following the location Charlie had sent.Once he was sure he was at the right place, he called Charlie, immediately sounding respectful and flattering, "I'm here, Mr. Wade. If you don't mind opening the door…""Alright, just hang on," Charlie said and put down the phone while turning to Raymond, who was putting the food on a folding table, "Our frien
