Surprisingly, regarding the incident that happened at Elite Vault Enterprise, the saddest person was Lady Wilson.Due to Wilson Group’s sluggish financial condition, she hoped that Claire could persuade Elite Vault Enterprise to allow them to buy building materials on credit. It would have solved the current financial constraint that they were facing.Out of the blue, the entire Elite Vault Enterprise disappeared out of thin air in one afternoon!Right now, Lady Wilson’s worst concern was the capital fund issue. Her greatest desire was on how to raise a sum of capital funds for her company.Claire didn’t tell her grandmother what had happened yesterday. After the experience, she decided that she would focus her entire attention on the project with Emgrand Group and would not bother herself with the family affairs now, not even if her grandmother begged her to.After a night of rest, Claire was feeling rejuvenated and energetic the next morning and went to work excitedly.Charlie

Even until Claire came home from work, Jacob was still looking sulky and lifeless.Charlie knew that he was sulking because of the invitation card of the auction.At this moment, Jasmine called and said, “Hi, Mr. Wade, I’m sorry, I was at Lancaster for some business affairs this afternoon, and now I’m at the downstairs of your house, can you please come and get the invitation card from me?”Charlie answered straight away, “Okay, I’ll go now!”He hurried off the door and went downstairs.Jasmine was in her Rolls Royce, waiting for Charlie. When she spotted him, she hurriedly got out of the car and handed him two invitation cards.Charlie thanked her graciously and returned home.Back home, Jacob was still sulking and angry.Claire tried to persuade him, “Dad, please, calm down. Grandma gave Harold the invitation card for him to know a few people in the business industry and the upper-class social society, and also to build his own social network.”Jacob sighed. “Huh, your grand

When Elaine heard about the bracelet that was worth five or six million, her eyes opened wide and there was a dash of sparkles in it!“Bracelet? Where is it? Show me!”Charlie was getting a little cautious. He said calmly, “Mom, the bracelet is in my bedroom, but I plan to return it.”“What? Return it?” Elaine frowned in dismay. “Are you out of your mind? Why do you want to return such a precious gift?”“It’s just a small favor, I don’t deserve such an expensive gift.”“Shut up!” Elaine blurted, “Since he already gave it to you, then just take it! Where is the bracelet? If you don’t want it, I want it!”Charlie knew what was playing in his mother-in-law’s cunning mind. He actually wanted to give the bracelet to Claire, but he couldn’t think of a suitable excuse for it, so he put it aside for the meantime, who knew that his father-in-law would blurt it out so casually!It’s not that Charlie was reluctant to give away the bracelet. He had nearly 10 billion dollars in his card, he

Jacob was extremely thrilled. This was his first time coming to such a high-end occasion. He couldn’t stop looking around but his limbs were moving awkwardly due to his anxiety.He clutched the invitation card tightly and handed it at the entrance of the venue, worrying that the invitation that Charlie had gotten them was fake.However, the security at the door scanned the card and verified them. Then, he turned to both of them and said respectfully, “Welcome, please enjoy yourself!”Jacob heaved a sigh of relief and walked in with Charlie.As soon as they entered, Harold, who dressed up as if he was at a beachside party, walked in with a swagger. Upon seeing them, Harold frowned, as a dash of shock flashed across his face.Charlie and Jacob were here too!What were the two deadbeat losers doing here? The Wilson family had only one invitation card and he was holding it! Had they tried to sneak in without anyone noticing?When he thought about the misery he suffered because of

Harold was fast, but Charlie was faster. He avoided the grab and in a swift action, he clasped Harold’s wrist, shook it slightly, and sneered. “What? Is the injury on your hand healed? Pain is forgotten where gain follows huh?”Harold suddenly felt an enormous force surging into his body. He took two steps backward, feeling furious and shocked at the same time.This loser’s strength was quite powerful!Knowing that he was out of Charlie’s league, Harold growled coldly, “Damn it, you wait here, I’ll get the manager and kick you out!”Then, Harold turned his head and shouted for the manager to come.Soon, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes walked quickly, with two security guards tagging along. The man managed a diplomatic smile on his face and said to Harold respectfully, “Yes, Mr. Wilson, how can I help you?”“Manager, check their invitation.” Harold pointed disdainfully at Charlie. “I suspect that theirs are fake.”For privacy and security reasons, the guest’s name

The crowd suddenly made way to form a passage in the middle, a man and a woman slowly walked into the hall.The woman wore a black evening dress that hugged her perfect and slender figure.Under the bright illumination, she was utterly beautiful and elegant, every move she made, even her walking posture, was exceptionally gracious.The woman was so beautiful that Harold couldn’t remove his gaze off of her.Jasmine walked into the venue, scanned around, saw two empty seats in the VIP section in the front row, and asked, “Where are my two VIP guests? Have they not arrived yet?”Finn Baxendale looked through the guest’s information and frowned. “Miss Moore, the scanner from the entrance indicated that the invitation cards of the two VIPs have been verified, they must have entered our hall, but we don’t know where they are right now.”Then, he ordered his staff, “Call the manager to see me.”Soon, the manager sprinted to them and asked, “Mr. Baxendale, what’s the matter?”Finn poin

Harold wanted to take this opportunity to establish a friendship with Finn, but never did he expect that Finn would suddenly kick him without a warning.He rolled on the floor several times before he could stabilize himself. He sat on the ground and blurted in a daze, “Mr. Baxendale, what is going on, there must be some misunderstanding…”The crowd was instantly shocked by the sudden commotion.“That’s the guy from the Wilson family, right? How did he offend Mr. Baxendale?”“The Wilson family? They are so insignificant already. Now that they’ve offend Mr. Baxendale, I think that’s it for them in Aurous Hill, huh?”There was a lot of shrill and gossiping whispers going on in the hall.Most of them were there simply to watch how Finn would beat the crap out of Harold.Finn glared at Harold and snorted, “Misunderstanding? F*ck you!”He lifted his legs again and stomped it hard on Harold, which sent the man wailing in agonizing pain.Finn was still burning in wrath. He stomped on

Charlie rejected Jasmine’s offer. “I’m sorry, Miss Moore, but my mood today had been ruined by those two irritating flies, so I won’t go back to the auction. Let’s keep a rain check on it.”Jasmine said apologetically, “I’m so sorry, Mr. Wade.”Then, she returned to her car to retrieve a wooden box and put it in Charlie’s hand. “Mr. Wade, this is a little token of my affection as an apology…”The moment the box was on Charlie’s hands, he could sense traces of Reiki from it, so he accepted it wholeheartedly.Jasmine was very glad that Charlie accepted her gift, so she continued, “Well, I’ll suspend today’s auction and ask Finn to regroup and observe his team of staff in the Treasure Pavilion. When he is ready, we’ll hold another auction sale, and I hope Mr. Wade and Mr. Wilson will be willing to join us then.”Jacob was astounded since he stumbled upon the woman. She was Miss Moore who appeared at the Vintage Deluxe when he smashed the antique vase, wasn’t she?She was so polite t

There were times when making a person despair to some extent could be a people-strategy.For example, when your distant acquaintance asked for a ten grand loan but you could only lend him one, you couldn't tell him directly that. It would make them think you were being insincere.The better option would be to tell them how you were worse off than they were and had a debt yourself, or that some other friend had borrowed money for three years and never repaid it.And when that mere acquaintance was in despair, you could tell them that if it was really important, you could lend them one thousand with a credit card loan.That way, while the mere acquaintance wouldn't exactly be awash with gratitude, they at least wouldn't complain about your lack of sincerity.That was exactly what Mr. Bay was doing.He had no intention of offending Jacob, but he also couldn't directly tell him to give up on claiming the position as president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Otherwise, Ja

Jacob felt absolutely horrible just then, and he certainly did not expect Don Albert to give him the cold shoulder.If he had known, he would have just stayed content with the 200 thousand he had made and enjoyed his trip to Dubai! If he had, the Calligraphy and Painting Association wouldn't have found out about the bronze sculpture plot, and Don Albert would still be on friendly terms with him.Absolutely regretting everything, Jacob got in the backseat of the cab, tears of grief almost welling up and out of his eyes.Then, noticing that the cabbie was quietly watching him from the rearview mirror, he turned his face aside, whipped out his phone, and called Mr. Bay.As soon as Mr. Bay answered, he asked, "How did things go over there? Have you sorted out Zachary Evans yet?"He was waiting for Jacob to ask Don Albert for help so that the latter would pressure Zachary into posting a statement retracting his previous claims.However, Jacob knew full well that there was no hope for

Ramond replied, "I'm not planning on getting my name out there—I was just thinking I could start slow from one shop, but now, I'm suddenly so popular everyone's consulting me for appraisals, so I guess that's the short end of this."Either way, I'm planning to let things cool off by opening the shop late and closing early. That way, I'd receive fewer customers, and the hype will die down in a month."Once it does, I'll lead a slow life, which is perfect in Aurous Hill since it's how things are here. I'm not aiming to get rich or expand my business, and it's a comfortable life, so I plan to retire here."Charlie nodded. "The Rothschilds are relatively manageable, but I'm not sure if the Qing Eliminating Society is still looking for you and the Four-Sided Treasure Tower. You'll be completely free once they are wiped out.""And I'm sure with your abilities, Mr. Wade, that day will soon arrive." Raymond smiled and soon remembered. "By the way, you probably haven't had dinner yet, right

Charlie was never one who covered up misdeeds, and what Jacob had done reflected his corrupted character and clear refusal to feel remorse.As such, Charlie naturally refused to offer any help, completely giving up and allowing Jacob to keep going off on his own tangent, tearing himself apart in the process.Still, Raymond did put a good word in for Jacob. "Actually, one can understand Mr. Wilson's motives from a certain point of view. I was the one who set him up so that he broke that vase, and had him beaten up so that we didn't arouse suspicion. He has every reason to bear a grudge."Charlie sighed, nodding. "There's no issue with holding a grudge or getting revenge—in fact, I have no problem with him trying to salvage some pride. However, what he did was unseemly, and he doesn't know when to stop."He didn't lose anything before Zachary exposed everything. Even if he had missed a killer deal, he bought it off someone's hand in the first place and made two hundred grand in clean

With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j

Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th
