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

“F*ck you!” Elaine rushed toward Carmen in rage before she sat down directly on Carmen’s stomach. Elaine started slapping Carmen’s face, one hand after the other, in quick succession as she cursed, “Do you really take me for a fool? I have already fallen for this trick once! You still dare to come and cheat me now?!”At this time, Elaine had thought of the time when Jacob had been hospitalized. She wanted to get her hands on the cheque that her daughter had received as a refund for the rental of the office building. After Charlie had handed the cheque over to her, she had quickly taken the cheque with her to pay for the hospitalization fees.Unexpectedly, the denomination of that cheque had turned out to be one hundred million dollars!At that time, the cashier at the hospital had ridiculed her and even threatened to call the police to get her arrested.In the end, Elaine had gone back to Charlie in a rage, planning to settle the score with him. Ultimately, she had found out that C

The boss of the beauty salon was shocked when he heard that the two women were fighting.“Aren’t they having a chat as friends? Why are they fighting?!”The employee hurriedly said, “I don’t know either, but it seems as though it is a huge fight between both of them. If you do not go over there to check it out now, I am afraid that someone might lose their life!”The boss could not help but feel a little nervous.He had not even run away yet. If something were to go wrong at this time, it would certainly be very troublesome if the police officers were involved in this matter.So, he hurriedly rushed over to the scene to check out the situation. Before he had even arrived at the scene, he could already hear the intense fight that was going on inside.Elaine was yelling over the other side of the door, “You b*tch! I might not be able to fight back or deal with that fat ass, Jennifer, but do you really think that I will not be able to deal with you?!”Carmen was obviously at a disa

He thought to himself, ‘Does this woman think I am stupid? She wants me to hand Elaine over to her?! If I do that, how is my family going to explain things to Mr. Webb, then? Besides, I don’t care how she ended up appearing here today, but since she was caught together with Elaine, I will have to take her away as well so that I can avoid encountering any other problems that might arise because I am kidnapping Elaine.’Therefore, Harold simply ignored Carmen and told the few young men, “Tie up both of these two old women and take them away!”Carmen yelled angrily when she heard this, “You want to tie me up? Do you know who I am?!”Harold replied in disgust, “I cannot be bothered to find out about your identity at all. You can tell Elaine who you are when the both of you are baking bricks together at the brick factory!”After he was done speaking, Harold told the few men, “I want you to cover up both of their mouths!”Carmen yelled hysterically, “You dare to touch me? I am Carmen… m

The sound of Carmen’s cell phone ringtone gave Harold a scare.Harold quickly reached his hand into Carmen’s bag before he took out an Apple iPhone.When he saw that someone was calling her, he hurriedly turned off the cell phone without saying anything. After that, he threw the cell phone back into Carmen’s bag.Carmen could only whimper, but there was nothing else that she could do. She was already filled with extreme regrets at this time.She thought to herself, ‘Why do I have such bad luck?! Why was I wasting so much time talking nonsense with Elaine? If it was not because of Elaine, I would not have been kidnapped by this group of men!’However, it was already useless and pointless for her to be filled with regrets. Although she was Lord Wade’s eldest daughter, she was completely helpless and hopeless at this time.Meanwhile, at the entrance of Lizzie’s Beauty Salon, Carmen’s bodyguard had realized that Carmen refused to answer his call.He did not put much thought into the

Isaac sighed after stepping out of the ward. Just as he was thinking to himself and wondering when Carmen would finally be leaving, his cell phone suddenly rang.The person who had called him was none other than Carmen’s bodyguard.Isaac answered the phone, “Hello, this is Isaac Cameron.”The person on the other end of the line was so nervous that he sounded as though he was about to break down. He choked up as he said, “Mr. Cameron, something terrible happened!”Isaac frowned as he asked, “What happened? Why are you making such a big fuss?”The person’s voice trembled as he said, “Mr. Cameron… Mr. Cameron… the eldest lady… she… she… she has been kidnapped!”Isaac was stunned for a moment!What was he saying?!Carmen had actually been kidnapped in Aurous Hill?Who could possibly be so bold that they would even dare to kidnap someone from the Wade family?!So, he hurriedly said, “Don’t panic first. Explain everything clearly to me from the beginning to the end!”The other par

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…
