Chapter 1887

Author: Lord Leaf
Donald’s life had been miserable recently.

His eldest son, Sean, was still at home recovering from his injuries, while his second son, Kian’s condition had not improved. He had basically given up on treatment.

Besides all these, Donald’s wife, Alice, had also requested for a divorce recently.

The main reason for the divorce was because of the death of Nelson and Kelly.

Alice felt that Donald had not protected her brother well and did not find out who had killed her brother.

In Alice’s eyes, what was even more unforgivable was the fact that Donald not only did not take revenge for her brother but instead, stayed at home and scolded her deceased brother badly.

Donald, of course, despised Nelson.

To him, it was that idiot who had utterly destroyed the reputation of the Webb family, which subsequently caused the market value of the Webb family to be affected awfully.

Initially, the Webb family was the leading family in the South region. Now, they could not even

    Donald thought for a moment before he said, “There are really not that many coal mines in the South Region, so I really do not know anyone who runs a black coal mine.”As he spoke, he seemed to have recalled something, and he laughed as he said, “However, I do have a childhood friend who runs a brick factory at home. The work at the brick factory is not as easy compared to the coal mine. You can send Charlie’s mother-in-law there to work as a coolie!”Christopher immediately smiled as he said, “Oh, Mr. Webb! That is simply perfect! A b*tch like her should just be thrown into the brick factory to suffer!”After he was done speaking, Christopher hurriedly asked again, “Mr. Webb, do you think that it will be convenient for you to tell me the address of your friend’s brick factory? After getting someone to deal with Elaine, I will ask them to send her there directly!”“You don’t have to be so anxious!” Donald sneered as he said, “I hold a deep grudge against Charlie. I have just arrive

    “How could that be possible?” Carmen blurted, “Dad, it must be because you have not seen Charlie for too many years, and this is the reason why you are still thinking so highly of him now. Let me tell you the truth, Dad. Charlie is nothing more than a little gangster from an obscure and poor place now! Both Sophie and Quinn are talented and wealthy young ladies. How could they possibly be interested in him?!”Jeremiah replied coldly, “I met Yule at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. I asked him if he still remembers that there is a marriage contract between Charlie and his daughter, Quinn. At that time, Yule told me on the spot that as long as I can find Charlie, he would certainly marry his daughter to Charlie without any hesitation at all!”“Also, Yule even said that Charlie’s current status or identity would not matter to him at all. Even if Charlie is a beggar out on the streets, he would still be the future son-in-law of the Golding family. Their family had already come to a con

    Elaine smiled as she said, “Oh! That is truly a coincidence, then. It seems as though God really wants to make it up to me and let me enjoy myself today!”After that, she waved her hand at the clerk as she said, “Okay, you can go out first. I will take the bath by myself. You can ask the beautician to get ready and wait for me.”“Okay!”After the employee came out, she hurriedly reported everything to her boss.When the boss heard that Elaine was already there, he hurriedly called Harold and said, “Harold, she is already here and taking a bath. When are you guys coming over?”Harold replied excitedly, “That is simply perfect! Ben, you have to make sure that you keep her there. Do not slip up and let her discover that something is amiss! I will get ready to go over there right now!”The boss of the beauty salon smiled as he said, “Harold, both of us are just like brothers. Since I have already made a promise to you, I will definitely get things done perfectly!”“Great!” Harold sm

    The employee did not know how to reply to Carmen’s sudden question.After all, her boss had already made it very clear that they were not going to entertain any other guests in the morning today. Therefore, she knew that no matter what it was, she should not let anyone else enter the shop today.So, she hurriedly said, “I am sorry, madam, but we are really not serving any other customers in the morning today. The reason why Miss Elaine can receive her spa treatment is because she had already made an appointment in advance. I am truly sorry.”Carmen was so angry that she was about to explode out of rage.The fact that she would actually step into such a shabby and rundown beauty salon was already a miracle. However, she never would have expected that the employee would actually try to stop her from entering the beauty salon!At this time, Carmen said angrily, “You refuse to let me enter, right? Do you believe that this beauty salon will not be able to continue operating in the futu

    Carmen replied, “I am here to look for Elaine, who came to do a treatment at your beauty salon earlier. I have something to discuss with her in private.”As soon as the boss heard that she was not here to spend money, the expression on his face darkened immediately, and he said in annoyance, “If you are not here to experience our services, please leave immediately. If you are looking for someone to discuss some matters with her in private, you should look for the right place to do so. I do not provide such services here.”Carmen glanced at her bodyguard, and her bodyguard immediately took out fifty thousand dollars from his small suitcase and placed it on the counter.When the salon boss saw the money, he suddenly had a very flattering and humble attitude as he smiled and said, “Madam, what kind of service would you like me to provide you with?”Carmen replied coldly, “Bring me to see Elaine. I want to chat with Elaine in private. It will not take too long, and I will take about th

    As she thought about this, Carmen stuffed the one billion dollars cheque back into her wallet.She felt as though she would have been taken advantage of if she spent one billion dollars just to bribe a cheap woman like Elaine. She felt that one hundred million dollars would already be more than enough.Therefore, she took out her checkbook and wrote a cheque for one hundred million dollars instead.She planned to use the cheque for one hundred million dollars to entice Elaine directly so that Elaine would force her daughter to divorce Charlie as soon as she got home. This way, she would have already accomplished half of the mission that she had to get done in Aurous Hill this time.After writing the cheque for one hundred million dollars, Carmen took out a Hermes silk scarf from her bag and placed it on the sofa before sitting down.At this time, Elaine was still happily soaking in the bathtub.In truth, Elaine was already done washing up a long time ago. The reason why she refus

    Carmen frowned as she spoke to the employee in a very arrogant manner, “Alright, then. You can just leave first. I will talk to her now.”The employee immediately left the room as though she had just received amnesty, and she hurriedly closed the door behind her.Elaine stared at Carmen vigilantly before she asked coldly, “Hey! Who are you?”Carmen replied indifferently, “You do not deserve to know who I am.”Elaine spat before she said, “My ass! Where did this d*mn old lady come from?! Why are you showing off and being so pretentious in front of me? Do you really think that you are that great just because you are dressed so colorfully while carrying a fake Hermes bag?!”Carmen could not help but yell angrily, “What did you say?! I am wearing a catwalk overcoat that has been customized by Chanel’s top designer just for me! My Hermes bag is also the top and most expensive limited-edition bag! The clothes that I am wearing right now is already worth at least fifty million dollars!”

    Elaine was dumbfounded, and she looked at Carmen before she blurted out in disbelief, “What did you just say? This cheque is worth one hundred million dollars?!”When Carmen saw the shocked expression on Elaine’s face, she said sarcastically, “Just look at the expression on your face. You look like someone who has not seen much of this world before. You have never seen a cash cheque from Citibank before, right? Someone like you will never be able to have the opportunity to see such a large cash cheque in your life!”The expression on Elaine’s face became very dark and gloomy in an instant.Carmen thought that she had completely subdued Elaine, and she smiled in satisfaction.She waved the cheque in her hand as she laughed and said arrogantly, “Do you want this cheque? If you want it, you’d better listen to me and persuade your daughter to divorce Charlie!”Elaine suddenly had a very angry and annoyed expression on her face.Carmen could not figure out why this woman’s expression

    Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim

    Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

    As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

    Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

    Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

    Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

    As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

    The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

    On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…
