Charlie followed Loreen into the house.The residences of prominent families in Eastcliff were extremely luxurious. Once you entered the door, the living hall alone was almost as big as a small banquet hall.At this moment, the living hall was very crowded and bustling with people and their chattery sounds. Many of Eastcliff’s prominent figures gathered in the hall, chatting in groups.Lady Thomas, accompanied by her husband, was talking and laughing with several old friends of her age.Loreen hurriedly said to Charlie, “My grandma is over there. Let’s go and meet her.”Charlie nodded and said with a smile, “We are just in time to give your grandmother the gift I prepared.”They walked in front of the old couple, and Loreen greeted them with a warm smile, “Grandma, Grandpa, let me introduce you... this is my college mate, Charlie Wade!”Lady Thomas smiled and said, “Oh my, it’s Loreen’s college mate! Welcome!”Then, she added, “By the way, Loreen, I remember a young girl who wa
At this moment, Loreen said to Dylan, “Cuz, let me introduce you to my college mate.”Charlie turned around with a wide grin on his face as soon as Loreen said that. The moment Dylan saw him, he opened his eyes so widely as if he saw a ghost!He was so shocked that it took him a long while before he came to his senses. Then, he started gritting his teeth and growling, “Oh! Charlie Wade! I was about to go after your *ss, and now you even dare to show up at my grandma’s house! I’ll f*cking kill you today!”Loreen shrieked in bewilderment and said, “Cuz, what are you talking about? Charlie is our guest... you can’t talk to him like that!”Dylan shouted, “Do you know why I had that surgery?”Loreen blurted, “My mom told me that you swallowed a necklace.”“That’s right!” Dylan shouted furiously. He added, “And why did I do that? It’s all because of this motherf*cker!”Charlie smirked. “Mr. Koch, please be reasonable and honest. Did I force you to swallow that necklace? Did I pry your
When Charlie saw that Dylan still had the same attitude as he did before, he could not help but sneer as he said, “Dylan, it seems that you really don’t know how to learn from your own past mistakes. Have you already forgotten how you swallowed the necklace the last time?”Back then, the main reason why Dylan was forced to swallow the necklace was that he lost a bet with Charlie. He thought very highly of himself just because he bought a necklace that was worth tens of millions of dollars. At the same time, he believed that the Rejuvenating Pill that Charlie gave to Jasmine was worthless.However, he really did not expect that a Rejuvenating Pill could be sold for a rocket high price of two billion dollars at Jasmine’s birthday banquet.After Dylan came back home, he had been pondering over this matter. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was not right.He had always felt that it was completely impossible for anyone to be willing to spend two billion dolla
Charlie nodded before he said, “Okay then. Let’s place our bets. If I lose, I will eat my painting. If you lose, you will eat your jade pendant.”“F*ck!” Dylan gritted his teeth and continued, “Okay! I don’t believe you! It is settled then! I bought my jade pendant for twenty four million dollars! I even have the receipt as proof of my transaction. How much is your broken painting worth?”Charlie did not actually know how much the painting was worth. However, he knew that the price of the Portrait de Famille painting by Henri Matisse had been rising rapidly in recent years. Therefore, Charlie was confident that the price of his painting was definitely worth much more compared to the price of the jade pendant.Although it was just a painting, it was by no means any random graffiti. Instead, it was a painting that had been very beautifully crafted by a professional artist.Henri Mattise’s top painting, the had once been auctioned off for a price of more than four
“F*ck you!”Dylan yelled coldly, “You are already facing your imminent death, but you are still refusing to admit your own mistakes at a time like this. Just admit that you are lying! You even dare to bring Mr. Golding from the Golding Group into this matter. If Mr. Golding blames us for this matter, will you f*cking be able to afford it?”Charlie smiled before he said, “If you don’t believe me, then you can just give Mr. Golding a call and ask him if he was the one who personally gave this painting to me then.”“Pfft!” Dylan curled his lips and continued, “Even though I am the young master of the Koch family, I do not have the right to contact Mr. Golding directly. Are you being so pretentious and showing off now simply because you know that I have no way to contact Mr. Golding to confirm the authenticity of the painting?”Charlie did not express his opinion, but he simply said, “There is no point arguing and bragging about this matter without doing anything at all. I think that i
As he spoke, the old man suddenly called Loreen over and said, “Come here, Loreen! Come and get to know Mr. Wrigley!”Loreen’s grandfather, uncle, and father surprisingly had unanimous views about Loreen’s marriage.They all felt that Loreen should be marrying a young master from a top and prestigious family so that she could bring glory to the Thomas family.This was also why they arranged for Loreen to work for the Emgrand Group in Aurous Hill.However, even though Loreen left for Aurous Hill for such a long time, she had not even caught a glimpse of the chairman of Emgrand Group yet. So, they were gradually starting to lose patience over this matter.Now that they saw Wrigley standing in front of them, all of them had the same idea. They were all hoping that Loreen could end up together with Wrigley. If that was the case, the Thomas family would be able to soar and lift its rank just like that.As soon as Wrigley saw Loreen, he could only stare directly at Loreen in shock.Al
When Dylan heard Wrigley cursing, he was instantly very happy.If Wrigley was also dissatisfied with Charlie, then Charlie would certainly be done for this time!When the time came, Dylan would not only force Charlie to swallow the entire painting, but he would also force Charlie to kneel in front of him and call him his grandpa!So, Dylan pointed at Charlie before he blurted out, “Mr. Wrigley, this is the fool that I was talking about!”Wrigley’s gaze had been fully focused on Loreen throughout the entire time he was here. Coupled with the fact that the members of the Thomas family were flattering him and surrounding him, he did not see Charlie who was standing not too far away.At this time, he looked towards the direction that Dylan was pointing at. When he saw Charlie, he was instantly shocked and frightened stiff!“Char… Charlie?! Why is he here?”When he thought about how Charlie could easily defeat Warlord and Realm Master... and how Charlie could make four men in his fam
As he slapped him repeatedly across his face, he started cursing in resentment, “Dylan Koch! D*mn it! You must be tired of living! You actually dare to scold Mr. Wade? Just you wait and see how I’m going to beat your broken and filthy mouth today!”Dylan’s face was immediately filled with blood and his cheeks were swollen at this time. His eyes were filled with shock and horror but he could not say anything at all.At this time, a middle-aged woman was applying some hand cream on her hands after coming out of the washroom next to the living room. She could not help but exclaimed out loud when she saw Dylan getting beaten up. So, she ran over here as she cursed out loud, “Who is this b*stard? How dare you hit my son?!”The woman who was speaking was none other than Sylvia, who was Dylan’s mother and Loreen’s aunt.Sylvia really loved her son. When she saw her son getting beaten up, she hurriedly rushed forward to fight it out with Wrigley.Wrigley was filled with resentment in his
