At this time, there were a few security personnel standing directly below the steps.The old master was holding the python head walking cane with both of his hands as he looked at Charlie with awe and admiration in his eyes.Charlie did not say anything, but he simply walked toward the old master as he bowed deeply in front of him.The old master hurriedly put his walking cane aside as he said with profound respect and humility, “This is unacceptable… unacceptable…”The several security personnel were all a little surprised.When the head of the Wade family had bowed to the old master, the old master had not even batted an eye. So, why was he being so polite and courteous when a mere driver was bowing in front of him now?At this time, the old master opened his mouth and asked Charlie, “Young man, I wonder if I can speak to you in private?”Charlie nodded and said, “No problem.”The old master turned around and told the security personnel, “No one is allowed to follow us.”Eve

Charlie had brought more than one Rejuvenating Pill with him to Eastcliff this time.Although he was certain that one pill would be enough to cure Yule, he had brought extra pills just to be on the safe side.From the looks of it, in the divination that the old man had given him, the only way out from the stalemate was the Rejuvenating Pill.Meanwhile, he couldn’t help but ponder the old man’s words.It seemed that the dragon stranding formation had manifested when he married Claire in Aurous Hill.The elder said that the reason why he was stranded in a rut was because he had started a family by the river. Aurous Hill was located next to the Yaak River, which corresponded to his aforementioned statement.Moreover, he had had a tough life until the sudden appearance of Stephen Thompson last spring, which had brought him a turn for the better fortune.However, the greatest gift he had obtained was not to be found again by the Wade family, but to obtain the by ch

Charlie said in a serious tone, “You’ve helped me, so I’m simply returning the favor. Take this pill, and it should extend your lifespan by ten years.”Although the elder had no idea what the Rejuvenating Pill was, he repeatedly nodded in excitement. He threw his cane and got to his knees slowly before raising his hands above his head.Charlie put the pill in his hands, helped him up, and said, “Sir, take it now. At your age, you might not look any different physically after taking it, but the real effect of the pill should be felt by someone with great wisdom like you.”The elder was so grateful that he blurted, “Thank you, Mr. Wade!”Without hesitation, he put the Rejuvenating Pill into his mouth.After that, he closed his eyes and stood as still as a statue for about a minute.One minute later, he slowly opened his tearful eyes. He turned to look at Charlie, knelt down again, and choked, “Mr. Wade, this medicine is truly a miracle elixir! Thank you for saving my life!”Charli

Hearing that Chandler was preparing to return to the United States for his retirement, Charlie bowed at him and said with a smile, “In that case, I wish you happiness and health for the rest of your life!”Chandler returned the salute and said, somewhat flattered, “I’m grateful for your blessing, Mr. Wade!”Then, he hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Mr. Wade, I have a piece of advice for you, I hope you don’t mind.”Charlie quickly said, “Of course not. Please say it, Mr. Lennard!”Chandler said, “Although the dragon stranding predicament has been broken, you should not remain by the river or ford.”Charlie asked, “Then, where do you think I should go?”Chandler replied with the utmost respect, “In my opinion, you should return to Eastcliff because this is the capital of our country. In terms of the city’s Feng Shui layout, it is the city with the best formation, and your return here could be described as a dragon entering its nature in terms of Feng Shui.”Charlie smiled

When Lord Wade invited Chandler back from abroad, he had arranged for him to live in the Wade family mansion, even providing him with the best hospitality they could offer.However, after Mount Wintry had been built, Chandler insisted on moving out of the Wade family mansion and living there.Lord Wade was reluctant to let Chandler live in the Wade family’s ancestral tomb even though it was very well built with living quarters for the staff to work and live. Lord Wade felt that he could not let such an old man as Chandler live there.Even though Lord Wade had tried to stop Chandler, Chandler still insisted on moving over. The main reason was that he had been waiting for his precious opportunity, for the exit gate in his fortune-telling, to open. He had been waiting for Charlie to appear and give him the Rejuvenating Pill that could prolong his life for ten years.Now that the opportunity he had been waiting for for four years had come, it was time to go.So, he said to the head

Charlie smiled in response to Yule’s remark and said, “I have many things to attend to in Aurous Hill, so I have to go back.”Yule nodded gently and said with a sigh, “Please come to Eastcliff often to visit us. My wife and I are looking forward to your return to Eastcliff.”Charlie simply hummed and didn’t say anything more.Yule tacitly dropped the subject and asked, “Charlie, you said you were going to your friend’s grandmother’s birthday banquet tomorrow. Have you prepared a gift?”Charlie replied, “Not yet. I plan to hit the streets to look for it later.”Although Charlie had the Rejuvenating Pill that was a significant and precious gift to the elderly, he couldn’t give Loreen’s grandmother such an expensive gift for her birthday since he had never even met her before. Therefore, he planned to buy a gift with a price range of a hundred thousand to show his sincerity.Hearing that, Yule laughed and said, “I have a small painting at home—it is Henri Matisse’s Portrait de Famil

Charlie rubbed his nose awkwardly as he answered, “Uhm… I’m your best friend’s husband!”Loreen replied in a somewhat indifferent tone, “I know. A fake husband and a fake marriage for four years. I wonder how much longer this make-believe game will last.”Just when they were chatting, a limited edition Bentley drove up to the front of the villa and stopped beside them. The back seat window was wound down, and a luxuriously dressed woman poked her head out of the window. The woman looked at Loreen and asked, “Loreen, why are you out here?”As soon as Loreen saw the woman, she hurriedly smiled and said, “Oh, auntie! Where is uncle?”The woman in the car answered, “He’s busy with his work. He’ll come at noon before the banquet starts.”Loreen continued, “Where’s cuz?”The woman sighed and replied, “I haven’t seen him since last night. Argh, I’m so pissed. He is so stubborn! It wasn’t long after his surgery that he started to stay out all night again. Talk to him, will you?”Loreen

Charlie didn’t know who Loreen’s cousin was, but he didn’t find it weird to bump into an arrogant rich kid or two since he was in Eastcliff. The place was known for having a lot of rich people, and eight or nine out of ten over-privileged rich kids would turn out to be obnoxious and cocky.When he and Loreen arrived at the entrance of the Thomas family’s house, the front porch and garage were already full of all kinds of luxury cars.Two men were warmly welcoming and greeting the guests outside the door, and Loreen hurried forward and said, “Dad, uncle, let me introduce you to my friend from Aurous Hill, Charlie Wade.”The men sized Charlie up, and Loreen’s uncle replied, “I haven’t heard of any Wade family members in Aurous Hill.”Loreen quickly explained, “Oh, Charlie is not from any family. He was my college mate.”Back then, Lord Wilson signed Charlie up into a one-year program at Aurous University where he was not only Claire’s classmate but also Loreen’s.Loreen didn’t stat

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

"Mr. Wilson, what you boys did was truly heinous!" Don Arnold growled. "I scolded Zachary myself when I found out, and I was the one who told him to post that statement!"Jacob was shocked. "But why, Don Arnold? Are you friends with Raymond Cole?""Never met the guy," Don Arnold replied.That left Jacob even more confused. "Then why are you taking his side?""I've been doing my best to clean up my image over the past couple of years," Don Albert replied coolly. "I rarely get involved in mob business or anything illicit, and everyone in Aurous Hill knows that Zachary is my right-hand man, yet he confessed to committing such a heinous crime behind my back. What is that if not sullying my reputation?"Jacob was left reeling as he didn't expect Don Albert to be so serious, but he quickly explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to affect you so terribly… It's all Zachary's fault! I wouldn't have been aware that Raymond had returned at all, but he just had to tell me and come up with
