The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1385
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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1391
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

After seeing that Stephen had already ended the call, the dean asked respectfully, “Mr. Thompson, what should we do now?”Stephen sighed before he said, “Since the young master already knows about this, you do not need to continue staying at the orphanage anymore. In the future, I will arrange for you to return and assume a post in the Wade family. Thank you for your hard work over the years!”The dean immediately bowed and said, “Mr. Thompson, the second master was very kind and gracious toward me when he was still alive. I will continue to serve the young master, Charlie, until the day I die!”Stephen nodded before he said, “You are all elites who have been personally trained and raised by the second master. It must not only have been very tedious and tiring, but all of you have also suffered a lot of injustice to be condensed and placed in such a small orphanage for more than ten years now. You should also take this opportunity to take a good rest during this time.”“When the yo

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

It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300

"But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom
