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

It didn’t matter if Lilian had to break her relationship with her son, or that Turk had to cut all ties with his flesh and blood. As long as they were able to force him to do what they wanted him to do, every sacrifice would be worth it.Draco exclaimed aloud, “Since all of you don’t respect me, I have nothing else to say to all of you. If you want to cut ties with me, so be it!”Lilian exploded upon hearing her son utter those words. She snarked, “This cold-hearted b*stard child! Even raising a dog seems like a better choice compared to raising an ungrateful child! You’re willing to disown your own family for the sake of that… that low-life woman! I can’t believe I wasted so many years raising you to be such an unfilial son!”Draco replied, “I’m sorry, mother. I don’t want to live the rest of my life being manipulated by you.”Turk exploded furiously, “You useless son! If you walk out on us today, you won’t be getting any share of assets from us! You’d better reconsider your actions!”

Charlie laughed after hearing what Turk had to say.Leave Hilton on a stretcher?This Turk truly didn’t know anything about this world.Nevertheless, for him, Charlie Wade of the Wade family, to attack this… this insignificant peasant… it was indeed a little undignified.Therefore, after much thought, the best way to solve this would be to give Albert Rhodes a call. Let him bring a few people along like that time with Kevin White. Then, he would just let the lackeys teach this husband and wife a lesson.Suddenly, a Rolls Royce drove up.Madeline, who had been silent all this while, suddenly jumped. “Oh! Mr. Morningstar is here!”As soon as she said that, Turk and Lilian tensed up.In their minds, they were hoping that Mr. Morningstar would have taken his own sweet time to travel to Hilton. During that time, they were hoping to solve the Magnolia issue. If push came to shove, they were going to pay her a few hundred thousand dollars as a reward for leaving their son.What they did not a

To Juliet, being pregnant was no big deal. Since she was already pregnant, all she needed to do was abort the baby. It was just like all the other times, nothing to worry about.However, during her trip to the hospital, the doctor advised her not to abort the baby as her reproductive organ had reached its limit. If she were to undergo this abortion, she would never be able to get pregnant ever again.Only after hearing those words did Juliet realize that she was in deep trouble.Every woman would like to be a mother someday. Although she was not ready to give birth to a child now, what if she suddenly wanted a child of her own in the future? Not being able to bear children wasn’t something she would want.Due to this, she had come forward and told her parents about it. Upon hearing this, Mr. Morningstar had been furious, but he couldn’t neglect his daughter’s future.Furthermore, she was his one and only daughter. Although she was not a son, he still wished for her to bear him a grandc

After Lilian had spoken, she rushed off into the crowd and said to Draco, “Come quick! Follow me to greet your future father-in-law. I’m warning you, if you spoil my plans, your father and I will never forgive you!”Draco was infuriated. “I’ve already told you, I’m cutting all ties with you. What future father-in-law are you talking about?!”Magnolia felt a tightening feeling in her chest as she looked at Draco and asked, “Draco, what is this all about?”In the spur of the moment, Draco shouted angrily, “My parents have gone crazy from greed! They desperately want me to marry this big boss’s daughter, and they want me to marry into the other family. There was also a rumor saying that their daughter was pregnant with a mixed-race man’s baby, and they want her to give birth to it.”After saying those words, everyone, including Magnolia, Claire, and Charlie, were stunned. Even the rest of the Scotson family were shocked by the news!Charlie finally understood the situation. This husband a

As the voices were drowned out by the silence, Draco immediately spoke up, “Uncle Morningstar, I am very sorry but I can’t marry your daughter. I already have the love of my life, and I am only going to marry her.”“What game are you playing at?” Zell Morningstar bellowed with arched brows as he glared at Lilian. “I even brought my daughter here and now… you do this?! Are you playing me as a fool? Or are you trying to take this opportunity to force me to increase the dowry?”“No! No!” Lilian quickly shook her hands in reply. In a guilty voice, she said, “Mr. Morningstar, I dare not take you as a fool. This son of mine, he is… mentally challenged! I am currently lecturing him!”Draco immediately intervened, “You don’t have to lecture me anymore, I’m leaving now!”Lilian shouted, “You dare?! If you walk out today, I will break your legs!”Charlie, who had tried to keep his mouth shut for the day, finally lost his cool. He turned to Lilian and said impatiently, “Old hag, if you still

A fifty-plus-year-old man who already had a family and a home, to marry Mr. Morningstar’s daughter?!Charlie’s words made the entire scene explode in anger.Zell Morningstar became infuriated and began scolding, “You must be looking for death's door! How dare you want for my precious daughter to marry Draco’s father?!”Charlie laughed, “You must be quite blind. Didn’t you just see that Draco was not interested in marrying your daughter? Draco’s parents, on the other hand, seem to want your daughter in their family… very desperately… So, wouldn’t the best solution to this dilemma be to allow Mr. Scotson to marry your precious daughter?”“You little b*stard! What nonsense are you spouting!” Lilian was fuming. “To let my husband marry Mr. Morningstar’s daughter… then what about me?!”Charlie continued, “You? I thought you wanted Mr. Morningstar’s daughter to be part of your family? Doesn’t this solve your problem? You should be thankful for my suggestion.”Charlie then turned to Turk and

”You… you…” Lilian couldn’t find the words to fight back. She turned to Hans and commanded him, “Hans! Come help me beat up this useless good-for-nothing b*stard!”Hans took a few steps backward and said in an annoyed tone, “Second Aunt, I thought you just mentioned that I am not part of your family? You even asked me to scram. Now you want me to beat someone up for you? You change your face faster than a woman changes clothes!”Lilian said with a forced smile, “Hans, please don’t get angry. Whatever I said just now was all words of frustration. Don’t you want to see the Scotson family improve?”“I’m sorry, aunty,” Hans replied almost instantly. “Your family is your family. My family is mine. We are not a family. So, if you want to beat someone up, do it yourself!”After he was done speaking, Hans turned to his other family members and shouted, “Let’s all not get involved in this matter. This is none of our business. Other people’s family problems are theirs to solve. Don’t be a fool a

Charlie chuckled. "Don't sell yourself short, Mr. Hart. There are plenty of business folk who got so used to their comfort zone that they became caught in the illusion that they can be successful in anything they do. It's a mindset that leads to them blindly developing new projects and new competition, and then they end up losing big."If memory serves, there have been real estate businesses that started mineral water brands, search engines that tried the car industry, e-commerce sites attempting social media, and vice-versa. All of them are multi-billion-dollar companies venturing into new frontiers, but all to unimpressive outcomes."Pausing, Charlie then continued, "You've mentioned rising above the competition amidst the development of the new energy industry. That would get anyone's attention, and it is why I believe that you definitely will make a strong impression with your strategizing and knowledge of the basic principles."Yolden found it hard to refuse, seeing that Charli

Having lost it all, Jacob really looked like he wouldn't be getting back up.But fortunately, he had a pillar in the form of Elaine.In fact, Elaine would serve to be a container, whipping Jacob into shape if he got too full of himself.But on the other hand, now that Jacob was utterly despondent, she would be forcing him to smile and function in general.Elaine's attitude to the entire issue was clear as well. Even though Jacob had just lost his job, she would make him go shopping with her in Dubai even if he fell into a coma. Even if he was dead, she'd just cremate him and bring his ashes along.Hence, with Elaine's firm grip around Jacob's leash, he went on strolls, going shopping and taking selfies with Elaine everyday, eventually easing the toll on his mood and spirit.-Back at Aurous Hill, Charlie was preparing for Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall's wedding as it approached.Yolden was a schoolmate of his mother, Ashley Layna Acker, as well as Charlie's elder.And while Cha

"See you." As soon as Charlie hung up on Matilda, Don Albert's call came right after.He sounded nervous as Charlie answered the phone, saying, "Master Wade, I think I might have gone too far…""Wait, what's this about?" Charlie asked."Your father-in-law, of course…" Don Albert sighed. "You asked me to leave him hanging for a while, so I did. I even refused when he asked to book a room in Heaven Springs.""Well, that's not a problem, is it?" Charlie shrugged. "He and Zachary ganged up for some real mischief. As you are Zachary's boss, it's right that you refused him because you didn't appreciate what he did.""That's just it. I thought that approach was just right as well," Don Albert quickly said. "I wasn't playing nice when Mr. Bay of the Calligraphy and Painting Association called me either. That's when he said he'd try to save Jacob's position as vice-president, but I told him it's none of my business."I then hung up on him without much thought, only for Zachary to tell m

Meanwhile, Charlie was downstairs in Claire's office, waiting to pick her up and head home.That was when Matilda called him, asking as soon as he answered, "Charlie, do you know how Jacob is doing? He never answered any of my texts—is he going to be alright?""I wouldn't know," Charlie replied. "Both he and Elaine are in Dubai on a trip… What's wrong?""He resigned," Matilda sighed. "I only saw the public statement that the Calligraphy and Painting Association posted this afternoon. It says that he tendered the resignation himself, but it doesn't really feel that way. I wonder if he's at odds with other members of the association…"Charlie was actually surprised to hear that Jacob had resigned.He had told Zachary to expose the truth of the bronze sculpture fraud case to teach Jacob a lesson so that Jacob would understand the meaning of true pain.However, he anticipated that Mr. Bay would at least keep Jacob around with an unimportant job even if Jacob did lose some money and e

Falling apart in both mind and spirit, Jacob was crying as he disembarked and took a cab to the hotel.Elaine, who had been lying around for 24 hours, was stunned speechless as she watched him enter, crying like a child.In contrast, Elaine looked like a mother to Jacob just then as he threw himself into her arms and bawled, "Darling… That prick Mr. Bay screwed me over… I have nothing left now…"Taken aback for a moment that Jacob would bawl in her arms like that, Elaine soon came to her senses and patted his back as she comforted him, "Oh, stop crying already. Who cares about some Calligraphy and Painting groupies? We certainly don't! Just hear me out and don't ever go there again!"Jacob kept sobbing, "But I care… I want to go…"Annoyed, Elaine's hand that had been patting Jacob a moment ago slid down to his hip and pinched him viciously before he noticed."Ow!" Jacob yelped in pain, and he demanded indignantly, "What was that for?!""Shut up!" Elaine snapped, glowering. "I wa

Jacob couldn't even be bothered by the looks others were giving him, and he called Mr. Bay immediately.Mr. Bay had already gone home and was seated on the couch with his wife, watching his phone and waiting for Jacob to call and demand an explanation.Mr. Bay knew that he had to answer for this and that if he avoided Jacob, it may well be a confession that he had screwed Jacob over.So, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to come clean with Jacob.Naturally, by coming clean, he meant passing the buck as his wife had suggested.Hence, as he answered Jacob's call, he immediately sighed in embarrassment, "Hey, Jacob. I'm so sorry about that…"However, Jacob was so furious he immediately started bellowing, "Mr. Bay! Are you fucking with me here?! You said that the resignation letter was more of a formality, but you just made it public instead! So, all those things you said about helping me were just a trap, was it?! You're despicable! And to think I've been so good to you, even

The repeated flights had left Jacob tormented.Even before he actually had the time to enjoy Dubai, he had already gotten sick of the place and didn't want to ever return.And on the flight, he couldn't stop his thoughts from going astray.Now that he was not getting back the money he had lost, his only hope was Mr. Bay.Fortunately, Mr. Bay was serious about his promise that he would at least save him a job as department head. That was why, despite his thoughts running astray, he never considered the thought that he would be kicked out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.As soon as his flight landed, he didn't wait to turn off his phone's flight mode, waiting for the internet connection to return so that he could ask Mr. Bay about the meeting.Once he did, he received a ton of messages from public accounts to acquaintances—many had already found out that he had resigned from the post of administrative vice-president and wanted to ask how he was doing.And Matilda was

The Calligraphy and Painting Association was certainly efficient—soon after the meeting was dismissed, the news that the administrative vice-president had resigned was posted on their official page and social media.The notice was simple and never mentioned what Jacob had done, only that the administrative vice-president had asked to resign for personal reasons. The request had since been voted upon, and all members had agreed to it.And that was how a simple and short message kicked Jacob out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association entirely.In the city, other associations closely connected with the Calligraphy and Painting Association were the various cultural societies and circles of antique enthusiasts and the Senior University. In fact, most fans of the public page of the Calligraphy and Painting Association were from the Senior City, and every lecturer, student, and even guest lecturer were subscribed.As a matter of fact, that was entirely Jacob's doing. After his lect

There weren't that many members in the Calligraphy and Painting Association—just a handful over twenty.Hence, at Mr. Bay's request, everyone showed up at the conference at 1 pm.He chose the afternoon as there were a handful who were away on outreach, including Walker, who was subbing for Jacob's lectures.Once the entire Calligraphy and Painting Association save for Jacob was informed of the mandatory meeting, every member was there on the hour, seated primly and in attention in the huge conference room.Mr. Bay didn't waste his breath on the preamble either—as soon as he saw that everyone had arrived, he announced, "Everyone, I've gathered you here today because our administrative vice-president, Jacob Wilson, has been alleged to be involved in a certain malicious scheme."Last night, Mr. Wilson submitted his resignation to me, and after a discussion with my vice-presidents, we've all decided to hold a vote. It will be open to every member in the association as we will be decid
