“Correct! Let us surrender!”“As long as we survive, we will still be able to fight back!”Sheldon sighed on the phone and said to Rosalie, “Rosalie, go and surrender yourself. I’ll use all my might to think of a way to rescue you…”Rosalie felt a little relieved, but still, she felt a bit reluctant. Nonetheless, she nodded her head and said, “Lord Schulz, do take care of yourself … I’m afraid I can’t serve you anymore…”Sheldon was heartbroken as he replied, “Believe me, I will surely find a way to get you out!”“Yes, I believe you!”As soon as Rosalie finished speaking, she hung up the phone and informed the flight attendant, “Open the cabin door!”The flight attendant nodded and opened the four cabin doors as instructed.“Everyone, put your hands on top of your head and walk down the staircases. Should anyone not cooperate, you will be shot dead on the spot!”Rosalie sighed and then rose and spoke to everyone with a sad face, “It is fate that has brought us to work together. Take ca

After all of Schulz family’s assassins had been arrested, Japan’s Self-Defense Forces cleared the scene. The airport resumed its normal operation. Three buses with steel protective nets welded to the windows were employed, and Rosalie and the rest boarded the bus one after another.Japan’s Self-Defense Forces had placed two pairs of handcuffs on each of them, with their legs bound by shackles too in order to prevent them from escaping. Not only so, but the assassins were also separated so that each military could guard them one-on-one. On the bus, there were two seats in a row on the left and right. Each suspect who had been handcuffed would sit near the window, while every fully-armed military would sit next to each suspect to prevent them from escaping. Besides, there were another ten fully-armed military men standing by the corridor inside the bus. Any movement from any suspects would be shot dead instantly. Rosalie looked out from the window welded with steel prot

Rosalie stared fiercely at him. Although she couldn’t hear what Charlie had said, she recognized him mouthing ‘Hey, Beauty!’ effortlessly. Besides, from Charlie’s frivolous and sarcastic look, Rosalie realized that she had lost to this man. She stared at him with resentful eyes and gritted her teeth like they were almost broken.During the intersection point between the bus and the airplane, it was the shortest distance among them both and Charlie gestured a decapitating hand sign at her. This gesture immediately enraged Rosalie to the maximum level! She jumped from her seat out of the blue before yelling loudly, “D*mn you! I’ll definitely kill you with my own hands!” Charlie had better hearing than most ordinary men. Thus, he could hear her shouting very clearly. He then replied with a smile, “I’ll wait for you!”Rosalie recognized the words he was mouthing and this had further confirmed her assumptions that Charlie was the main culprit who had dragged all of

Rosalie was only twenty-one years old this year and she was actually a year younger than Sophie.Nevertheless, for the past eighteen years since her birth, Sheldon had been unaware of her existence.Rosalie’s biological mother, whose name was Yashita Harker, was the eldest daughter in the Harker family, one of the top four martial arts families. She was one of Sheldon’s bodyguards a long time ago. She wasn’t only beautiful, but she was also a very capable woman and she was an elite among the Schulz family’s bodyguards back then. She was three years older than Sheldon. When Sheldon reached fifteen years of age and had to study overseas, Lord Schulz had purposely hired Yashita from the Harker family as Sheldon’s personal bodyguard to ensure his safety. That year, Yashita had just turned eighteen. Ever since that year, she had been staying by Sheldon's side.She had accompanied him through thick and thin—she was with him during his studies and when he furthered his educatio

She instinctively felt that it was her mother’s wish for her to choose the second option. Since then, Yashita had changed Rosalie’s surname to Schulz and asked someone to recommend her to Sheldon. At first, Sheldon was ignorant about Rosalie’s birth. He only felt that this young lady was very capable and had a very bright future ahead. Moreover, she resembled Yashita very much. Rosalie kept the secret from Sheldon prudently as advised by her mother. Nevertheless, the cunning Lord Schulz was able to detect certain peculiarities. He found out that the way the young lady looked at Sheldon was different.As such, this had alerted him. He was afraid that Rosalie might be a spy sent from his rivals. Therefore, he hired someone to investigate Rosalie’s identity. Pieces of information were investigated and finally, they managed to find out the source from Yashita.When Lord Schulz suspected that Rosalie could be Sheldon’s daughter, he had instructed his subordinates to coll

“To give you some face?”The moment Lord Schulz heard this, he sighed and said, “In the world we live in, everything has its own value. There’s a saying that goes ‘the vengeance of killing someone’s father is more than heaven can bear.’ If you give that person a billion, ten billions, a hundred billions, or even a thousand billions, there is always a price which can move his heart.” He then switched to his main point. “However, the main point is that you’d have to know how much something is worth. Would you take it even if it costs you thousands of billions?”Sheldon fell into silence. Indeed, he wanted to save Rosalie very much, After all, she was his own flesh and blood. Regardless of how merciless he was, he would never want to see her die like this. Besides, she was the Schulz family’s elite and she was still very young. If he were to be able to rescue her, she would still have much to contribute to the Schulz family in the future. After taking all the points int

“Okay,” Lord Schulz replied. “You have to adjust yourself so as not to focus too much on Rosalie. The Schulz family is in deeper trouble. After your return, we will hold a meeting to discuss solutions for the next phase. If we don’t fill up all that we’ve lost, other families will be eyeing us!”“Alright, I understand!”***At that moment, the Schulz family’s notorious news in Japan spread like wildfire over Eastcliff, even reaching the Wade family, and had become the hot topic. Every family was taken aback by the news as no one had expected that the prestigious Schulz family would suffer such tremendous defeat in Japan. Despite the news being a nightmare to the Schulz’s family, it was good news to the rest. The Schulz’s family had overwhelming influence in Eastcliff. Apart from the Wade family, the rest was definitely no match for the Schulz family. The other families were in high spirits because the severe losses suffered by the Schulz family would narrow the gap with

Charlie’s airplane landed safely at Aurous Airport around ten at night. Charlie had not informed Claire about his homecoming tonight as he wanted to give her a surprise. Isaac had already arranged transport for all of them. As soon as they got off the airplane, they boarded their transport respectively and headed home. Albert and Liam left separately, while Issac volunteered himself to send Charlie back to Thompson First, and Charlie did not object to his suggestion. After they had both boarded the car, Issac laughed and talked to Charlie while he drove. “Master Wade, I’m sure the Schulz family will fight hard with us if they know we are the mastermind behind their tragedy.”“It doesn’t matter.” Charlie smiled. “After all, the Schulz family is in deep water now after losing so many people in one shot. They will take a couple of years to restore themselves, so we’ll be safe in the next few years.” “This makes sense…” Isaac then sighed, “Even the notorious kid, Rosalie, f

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l
