As soon as he arrived at the office door, he bumped into his childhood friend, Stephanie, who had just stepped out of the office. When she saw Charlie, she said happily, “Brother Charlie, why are you here?”Charlie smiled slightly and said, “I came to see Mrs. Lewis about some matters. Is she here?”“Yes, she’s here.” Stephanie smiled before she came up and held Charlie’s arm as she said affectionately, “Brother Charlie, you did not come by the orphanage for quite some time. I’ve missed you!”Charlie smiled and said, “Why don’t you call me if you miss me?”“I was afraid that you would be busy!” Stephanie replied in her low and sweet voice. “I did not want to cause any disruptions to your business!”Charlie replied, “Okay. I will treat you to dinner one day. You can go and get busy first. I will go in and look for Mrs. Lewis.”Stephani replied, “Alright, Brother Charlie. You can go and look for Mrs. Lewis first. I will go to the kitchen and see if they have already begun preparing

The expression on Mrs. Lewis’s face suddenly changed because of Charlie’s question!She started panicking all of a sudden!She would never have dreamt that Charlie would ask her this question.So, she panicked and said, “This… this… I have never heard of this matter before. If someone truly came here looking for you, we would definitely not hide or conceal anything. Do you think that there is some misunderstanding in this matter?”Charlie shook his head and said, “No, it cannot be a misunderstanding. Deep down in my heart, I also cannot accept the explanation that this was all just a misunderstanding.”As he spoke, Charlie had a pious expression on his face as he said, “Mrs. Lewis, the reason why I came to you is not to pin the blame on anyone. After all, no matter what it is, you were the one who saved my life and raised me for ten years. Even if there is something that you have been hiding from me, I will never hate you.”Mrs. Lewis felt extremely ashamed when she heard this.

”Yes!” Mrs. Lewis nodded before she cried and said, “Back then, I was not stationed in Aurous Hill, but I was arranged to work at Raventon instead. One night, the Wade family’s steward, Mr. Thompson, sent someone to urgently bring me from Raventon to Aurous Hill. After that, he arranged for me and someone else from the Wade family to take over this orphanage. After a few days, we replaced all of the staff in the entire orphanage with members of the Wade family. After all the necessary arrangements had been made, I found you under Mr. Thompson’s instructions and brought you to this orphanage…”Charlie was extremely shocked!This was the only thing he had heard since he was a child that had left him in utter disbelief!He had entered the orphanage at the age of eight and had lived here for ten years. However, he was only finding out now that all of the employees in the orphanage were people from the Wade family?!Could it be that he had been ignorantly spending his entire childhood a

Mrs. Lewis was actually right.Charlie had undergone tremendous changes since he was a child. He had experienced the best days in the world, but he had also experienced the hardest days too. He had already learned not to take things to heart, and he would not be affected by any tragedy outside.Even if he did not get married to Claire and even if he was still working on the construction site now, he would not be dissatisfied with life. This was because Charlie felt that after the death of his parents, if he worked hard to live and survive, this would be the greatest comfort to them.As for money and status, he had already put it all behind him.He had suffered a lot of humiliation and ridicule after getting married to Claire, but he had never once thought about going back to the Wade family to ask for their help.He could even calmly accept it when the Wilson family repeatedly trampled all over his dignity over the years.Three years of incomparable humiliation passed by just l

However, this feeling of indignation in his heart was fleeting.This was because he knew that Stephen and Mrs. Lewis only did this for his own good.If they did not deliberately protect him like this, he probably would have already died more than ten years ago.In order to protect him, Stephen did not hesitate to replace the entire Aurous Hill Welfare Institute with the Wade family’s own subordinates. This was already enough to prove Stephen’s dedication and loyalty toward him.As he thought about this, Charlie hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Mrs. Lewis and help her up as he said gratefully, “Mrs. Lewis, you don’t have to apologize to me, let alone ask me for my forgiveness. Both you and Mr. Thompson are my benefactors. I should thank you for risking your life to protect me and ensure my safety.”Mrs. Lewis waved her hand in a hurry before she said, “Young Master, you are too polite. This is what we should do.”Charlie sighed and said, “Mrs. Lewis, I am still feeling

As soon as Stephen’s voice fell, his cell phone suddenly vibrated on top of the table.It was a phone call from Charlie.He hurriedly wiped the tears off his face. After that, he put on an act as he answered the call as usual before he said respectfully, “Young Master!”Charlie had already pushed his motorcycle out of the orphanage at this time. He was standing by the side of the road in front of the entrance of the orphanage as he held his cell phone in his hand and said, “Mr. Thompson, thank you for everything that you have done for me throughout all these years.”Stephen hurriedly said, “Young Master, what are you talking about? Why can’t I understand what you are saying?”Charlie replied, “I just came out of the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute.”Stephen smiled as he said, “Oh, it turns out that the young master returned to the orphanage. After all, you must have a lot of emotions and affection for that place since that is the place that you’ve lived in since your childhood.”C

”However, I was afraid that there would be someone in the Wade family who would try to harm you. After all, Lord Wade is already old. If he were to bring you back to the Wade family and expose you to the other members of the Wade family, he might not be able to protect you comprehensively. Thus, I decided on my own to settle you down in Aurous Hill before I proceeded to completely conceal and hide your identity and information from everyone else. I also did not let Yule from the Golding family know about your whereabouts when he came looking for you back then.”Charlie asked again, “Why did you come and find me to ask me to go back to the Wade family some time ago, then?”Stephen replied earnestly, “Young Master, to tell you the truth, Lord Wade’s health has been getting worse and worse over the past two years. However, he is very dissatisfied with the current situation and status quo of the current heirs of the Wade family. Therefore, he is very unwilling to hand over the Wade famil

As he thought about the past, Stephen could not help but cry so much that he was choking, and there was no sound coming out from him anymore.Charlie felt his heart throbbing when he heard Stephen sobbing.Although many years had already passed, Charlie still felt extreme pain and resentment deep in his heart when he thought about the fact that his parents did not die in an accident, but had been murdered instead!As a son, his parents’ blood feud was absolutely irreconcilable to him.He would definitely do his best to avenge his parents’ blood feud even without Stephen saying it!Otherwise, he would not be worthy of being their son!So, Charlie replied indifferently, “Mr. Thompson, you don’t have to worry about this. I swear to God that I, Charlie Wade, will surely avenge my parents’ death with my own hands! I will deal with every single person who participated in my parents’ murder, and I will not let a single one of them go!”“That’s great!” Stephen was very excited, but he s

Unable to nitpick on the air stewardess' response, Elaine pouted, "Well, try to ask management to improve on your first-class cabins anyway. Maybe even make a premium-class or something since it's not like we can't afford it."The air stewardess quickly said, "We will definitely relay your message to the management."Nodding in satisfaction, Elaine waved her off. "Alright. You can go back to work now."Clearly relieved, the air stewardess bowed her head respectfully. "Always happy to be of service."After the air stewardess left, Jacob asked Elaine in curiosity, "Was the private jet that good?"Elaine rolled her eyes. "Didn't you see the stuff I posted in the chat group?""Not really," Jacob blurted. Elaine was ready to snap at him for not caring, but considering that they had made up now and she shouldn't fuss too much over the little things, she snorted, "Just remember to like and comment on all my posts in the chat group, otherwise, I will make you regret it!""No problem!"

While the ten collectors were taking turns studying the bronze sculpture, Jacob and Elaine were boarding their flight.As they were flying first-class, they had priority over the other passengers and boarded from the separate plug door at the first-class section.The capacity of the Boeing 777 was huge, and the wide-body aircraft could be connected to a special double corridor bridge where first class and business class passengers boarded separately from the economy class passengers.As the terminals to economy class and business class were connected, Elaine and Jacob were able to get through the first-class terminal unimpeded, but the passengers in economy class had a queue of over two hundred passengers. Even as she walked, Elaine was looking over her shoulder and exclaiming at Jacob, "Must be nice being rich! We used to have to queue like the rest of them, waiting for over thirty minutes just to board our flight." "In first class, we may be in the same plane, but we don't hav

Meanwhile, once Raymond had briefed everyone about the rules, he opened the door and invited everyone into Treasure Measure.It was not that wide but appeared spacious since the interior was mostly empty—it was not really crowded even with thirty-ish people.Then, locking the door from the inside, Raymond told them, "I can tell from everyone's faces that we are all veterans here, so I'm sure you understand the rules while appraising: no photos or videos, thank you very much."Indeed, there were many rules that governed the hobby, the most important being respecting the seller's requests and privacy.As the collectors listened, they knew that Raymond was selling but did not want the public to know too much about him.They all nodded, and those who had their phones out slid them back into their pockets.With that, Raymond took out the bronze sculpture that he had brought, leaving Trippy a little surprised.He had never seen the bronze sculpture with his own eyes before, only from

"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,

Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my

After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme

Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If

Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo

Seeing that Mick had a favor to ask, Trippy was naturally eager to seize the opportunity to get in his good graces."Don't worry, Mr. Crane!" He promptly replied. "Just leave it to me!"Returning to Treasure Measure, he went up to the first man who had come and said, "Hey, brother… Did you come to buy the bronze sculpture from Mr. Cole?"The man asked warily, "You know about the bronze sculpture?""Of course!" Trippy grinned. "I know all too well—it's actually famous here in Aurous Hill."Whipping out his phone, he played the short video that Mick had spent five grand promoting, saying, "Here—check this out!"Curious, the man took the phone and watched the video solemnly.The other latecomer soon hurried over as well and stared fixedly at the screen too.They watched as Bill entered a room with the bronze sculpture with Mick, the latter who checked it out and started commenting on it.The first man exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, it really is that bronze sculpture."The second ma
