“Go home to take a look?”Charlie could not help but laughed when he heard Carmen’s words.When Carmen saw the fake laughter on his face, she said, “Charlie, you left home when you were so young, so it’s about time that you come home now. You aren’t young anymore. You’ve already been away from home for so many years, so it’s about time for you to come home and take a look.”Charlie nodded in agreement as he said, “You’re right. Since I’ve already left home for such a long time, I should really make some time to go back and have a look then.”As he spoke, he smiled before he said, “Well, if that is the case, then I’ll arrange a time at a later date. I will go back and visit home if I have time.”Charlie seemed to have already agreed to Carmen’s proposal, but in fact, he was simply trying to delay time.If he were to say that he was going to arrange a time to pay a visit after a period of time, then that was basically tantamount to the far and distant future. Anyway, he simply want

As she spoke, Carmen stretched out one finger before she said arrogantly, “First of all, regarding Emgrand Group, when the time comes, you can continue to ask Doris to continue helping you look after the company. We’ve already investigated and looked into Doris’s background and she is a pretty capable person. During this period of time, Emgrand Group has developed and grown well in her hands. So, you can feel rest assured to hand the group over to her.”After that, Carmen lifted another finger before she said, “Secondly, you will have to deal with your current wife, Claire, and her family. We have also investigated and looked into the current situation and background of the Wilson family. To be honest, this kind of family is worth nothing at all to the Wade family. The Wilson family is not worthy of anything at all. So, how can they possibly be the Wade family’s in-laws?”Carmen had a disgusted look on her face at this time as she said, “So, I would advise you to divorce Claire as so

Carmen never expected that Charlie would dare to talk to her like that!Moreover, when she heard him say that he had the right to inherit a quarter of the Wade family’s assets, she was enraged in an instant!Thus, she shouted sternly, “B*stard! You think too highly of yourself! Inheriting a quarter of the Wade family’s assets?! Who do you think you are?!”Charlie said in a cold voice, “I am Charlie Wade, and my father is Curtis Wade!”Carmen rebuked, “Your father has been dead for so many years, besides, do you think you have what it takes to inherit the Wade family assets? Dream on! You don’t deserve a penny of it!”Charlie stared at Carmen and laughed coldly. “For how my father fought for the Wade family back then, he should even be the patriarch of the family! You, on the other hand, have absolutely no say in this. According to the rules of the big families, a married daughter no longer has business with her maiden family. Since you have already married, you are no longer a mem

Carmen thought that her threat had successfully made Charlie yield. Thus, she immediately sneered, “First, divorce your wife of unimportant origin. Then, return to the Wade family at your grandfather’s command. Now, Yule Golding has unified the Golding family, and his control over the entire Golding family has reached an unprecedented peak. You and his daughter were engaged. If you marry his daughter, it will be of great help to the Wade family.”Then, she added, “Otherwise, you can also try to win the heart of the eldest granddaughter of the Schulz family, that is, Sheldon’s daughter. She is very favored in the family, moreover, her mother was one of your father’s suitors. She may adore you just like how she loved your father, so she may be willing to let her daughter marry you, and it will be of greater help to the Wade family!”“Therefore, after you divorce your wife, first try your luck in pursuing the Schulz girl. If you guys hit it off, marry her. If not, marry Yule Golding’s d

Seeing Charlie leave without hesitation, Carmen screamed in anger, “Charlie! I haven’t even finished talking yet, how dare you leave now! I’m your aunt! I’ll make you pay for being so disrespectful to me!”Charlie ignored her.In his opinion, this aunt of his was just a spoiled, foolish woman who grew up in a lenient and wealthy upbringing. She would always be so pompous and cocky, bossing people around. Although she was here for an official business on the order of Lord Wade, she only cared about her own larger-than-life reputation. Such a person would hardly become important even in the Wade family.Therefore, Charlie saw no reason to waste his time with her.After exiting the door, he immediately left Sky Garden. Isaac hurried forward and said nervously, “Mr. Charlie, why are you doing this to yourself? It will do you no good if Miss Carmen complains to Lord Wade later!”“So what?” Charlie grunted, “Even if she is a member of the Wade family, she is nothing but Lord Wade’s mess

The steak and cutlery were scattered all over the floor as Carmen had swept them all off the table.As there were many broken pieces of glass on the floor, the female foreman of the Sky Garden was afraid that Carmen might hurt herself, so she hurriedly ushered two waitresses to clean up the mess.As Carmen was still in the spur of the moment, she was infuriated when she saw the foreman approaching her with the two waitresses, so she grabbed one of the waitresses and started slapping her face while cursing indignantly, “Did I ask you to come? Did I call for you?”The girl was crying and begging as she was slapped several times, “I’m sorry, Miss Carmen, please forgive me. I was afraid that you would cut yourself, so I’m here to clean up the broken glass…”Becoming even more infuriated, Carmen increased her strength as she started slapping the girl once again and shouted, “B*stard! Only come when I ask you to come! Don’t even let me see your face if I never call for you!”The foreman

As soon as Carmen had left, Isaaz hurriedly asked the three employees, “What the hell just happened?!”Lizzy choked, “Mr. Cameron, Miss Carmen got angry and flipped the table, so Nancy brought us over to clean up the mess, but suddenly, Miss Carmen slapped us and even kicked Nancy in the stomach. Nancy is pregnant! I wanted to call the ambulance, but Miss Carmen smashed my phone…”Nancy, who was sitting on the floor in great pain, said, “Mr. Cameron, it’s all my fault. Please don’t punish them, punish me alone!”Isaac sighed and said, “No, I’m to blame for this. I didn’t manage to protect you all. I’ll have someone send you all to the hospital immediately, and I’ll give you a month’s leave and two hundred thousand each as compensation for your injuries.”Then, he looked at Nancy sitting on the floor and said seriously, “Nancy, I will contact the best gynecologist in Aurous Hill to check on you and your baby. I’ll ensure that the baby is okay at all costs. If the baby is okay, I wil

“That’s not good!” Elaine said stubbornly, “Those green hats are my ultimate weapons against the Wilson family. I want them to remember every single day that Hannah was pregnant with an illegitimate child!” Suddenly, Elaine thought of something. She laughed and said, “Hey, I’ll hang these lanterns and green hats next to each other in a while. When the lanterns are switched on, they will be in contrast with the green hats. It’s absolutely striking! This will certainly drive the Wilson family mad!” Claire advised her, “Mum, it’s the New Year. Let us forgive others!”Elaine quipped, “Don’t you advise me. It’s no use advising me. Don’t you know that my leg was broken by your grandma? And my two lost teeth were also because of her?! I’ll never forgive her for this matter!” Seeing her mom’s determined face, Claire felt helpless. It was impossible to change mom’s decision. Having said her piece, Elaine carried a bunch of red lanterns by herself and walked toward the elev

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

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
