Aurous Hill. The Moore family mansion.When Tyler came home, he pretended to be very nervous and anxious as he asked Lord Moore many questions. The expression on his face was also filled with concern for Jasmine.Lord Moore could not help but feel very puzzled and bewildered as he looked at his eldest son.He honestly did not want to believe that the eldest son he had raised for more than fifty years actually had the intention to harm him.If it was anyone else who had said these words, Lord Moore would never believe it.However, since these words had come out of Charlie’s mouth, even if Lord Moore did not want to believe it, he had to pay extra attention to this matter.This was because Lord Moore knew very well in his heart that Master Wade’s abilities were all above the sky. Based on his character and personality, Charlie would never say anything irresponsible.Since Charlie had said so, he must have some evidence to support his statement!As he thought of this, Lord Moore l

Back then, when Lord Moore had been in his prime, he had always acted aggressively and decisively.Even at that time, Oscar had always stayed by his side, and he had personally witnessed Lord Moore overcoming all obstacles and succeeding in fulfilling his high ambitions.Whenever Lord Moore was about to do something big and great, he would always have this kind of firm and determined expression in his eyes.Oscar hurriedly followed the old man into the study room. After Lord Moore waited for him to close the door behind him, Oscar was immediately shocked by Lord Moore’s first sentence!“Oscar, I want you to activate all of the monitoring and surveillance systems at home. From now on, I want to monitor and keep an eye on Tyler’s every move!”Oscar was stunned as soon as he heard this!Before Lord Moore had moved into this villa, he had specially instructed Oscar to look for the best security monitoring company in the market to quietly install a complete set of internal monitoring

The difficulty of running a large family could be comparable to running a country.The current conflict and fight between the big families could be said to be exactly the same as the fights and conflicts between the ancient princes which were recorded in the history books.The ancient princes would not hesitate to kill their own brothers or father just so they could succeed the throne.This kind of thing was not uncommon in society today, especially in large families with assets worth more than one hundred million dollars.Although the sons of the Moore family had always been very united and harmonious in the past, Lord Moore had already made all the necessary preparations for the worst.Now, the internal monitoring system that he had prepared had indeed come in handy.Oscar immediately walked toward the bookcase before he found a secret switch. After that, the bookcase moved slightly to the left, revealing a huge display that was embedded into the wall.Oscar quickly turned on

Tyler, who was lying on the bed, picked up the cell phone, and he laughed as he said, “Reuben, I am already home. That’s right. Don’t worry. That old man did not notice anything abnormal at all. He is feeling a little unwell, probably because he is mentally and physically exhausted. He has already gone back to his room to rest.”At this time, the high-fidelity directional microphone also caught Reuben’s voice from the phone call, and he could be heard asking, “Dad, when are you going to give the medicine to that old man?”Tyler smiled as he said, “Don’t worry. There is no suitable timing for me to do so yet. I have already instructed the chef to prepare a bowl of bird’s nest for your grandfather. I will take it from them later and add the medicine to the bird’s nest before sending it to his room. I will stay there and watch him finish it in front of me!”Reuben hurriedly asked again, “Dad, how long will it take for the medicine to take effect, then?”Tyler replied, “Since time is a

As soon as Oscar heard Lord Moore’s instructions, he did not hesitate as he nodded his head and said, “Lord Moore, don’t worry. You can rest assured that I will keep all of your instructions in mind!”It was only then that Lord Moore could finally feel relieved. He waved his hands weakly before he said, “Oscar, I am feeling a little tired. You can go ahead and get busy. I will rest for a short while.”Oscar replied nervously, “Lord Moore, why don’t you go and rest in the bedroom, then? I will be keeping guard in the living room outside. Otherwise, I will really feel very worried…”Lord Moore had a wry smile on his face as he asked him, “Are you afraid that you will not be by my side when they are giving me the medicine?”“That’s right…” Oscar’s eyes were flushed red, and he said seriously. “Lord Moore, although Master Wade is truly very capable and powerful, when it comes to this kind of matter, I am honestly afraid that something bad will happen…”Lord Moore smiled indifferently

Therefore, after Tyler had given him the medicine and before Charlie came back, Lord Moore would be a patient with Alzheimer’s disease.A patient with Alzheimer’s disease would not know how to use their cell phones. So, Lord Moore would not be able to touch his cell phone during this period of time.Thus, Lord Moore decided to delete the software directly from his cell phone as a precautionary step.After that, Lord Moore retrieved the Rejuvenating Pill before he scraped a layer off from the pill. He then diluted it in water and took it directly.Soon after, he returned to his bed and laid down.At this time, the visual screen at the head of his bed suddenly lit up. Lord Moore could see Tyler appearing in the picture, followed by a melodious ringtone.This was the sound of the doorbell for Lord Moore’s room.As his own suite was really big, whenever he was in the study room or bedroom, he would not be able to hear anyone knocking on his door outside. Therefore, h

Lord Moore’s sudden sigh made Tyler feel more or less guilty.However, after observing Lord Moore carefully, Tyler realized that there was nothing wrong or abnormal with the old man at all. So, he immediately felt relieved.He felt that he had never gone against any of Lord Moore’s intentions at all. He did not even express strong opposition when the old man had decided to give the position as the head of the Moore family to Jasmine. So, there should be no reason for the old man to doubt him at all.Thus, Tyler smiled as he said respectfully, “Dad, you should finish drinking it while it is hot. After this, I will ask the chef to prepare a pot of nutritious chicken soup for you later in the evening so that you can replenish your body.”Lord Moore nodded, but he did not say anything at all as he finished drinking all the bird’s nest in the bowl.When Tyler saw that the old man had finished up the entire bowl of bird’s nest, Tyler was completely relieved. At this time, he sneered as

Several servants suddenly ran over and asked, “Sir, what happened?!”Tyler replied, “I pressed Lord Moore’s doorbell a couple of times, but he did not respond at all. I am afraid that something might have happened to him. You should help me to knock this door open!”When the several servants heard this, they suddenly felt very nervous. One of them took the initiative and said, “I will do it!”Another person hurriedly said, “I will do it with you too!”At this time, Oscar also hurried over to Tyler as he asked nervously, “Sir, what happened to Lord Moore?”When Tyler saw Oscar, he hurriedly said, “Uncle Oscar, you’ve come at the right time. My father is in the room, but he did not respond at all even after I pressed the doorbell several times. I am afraid that something has already happened to him!”Oscar’s heart tensed immediately, and he realized that Tyler must have already given the medicine to the old man. Oscar suddenly felt a little angry, sad, and worried all at the same t

There were those in Antique Street who made their living from swindling the average Joe while others swindled antique traders.In fact, it was already cliche for them to trick antique traders with forgeries, and it was not surprising that someone had tried their luck on the opening day of Raymond's shop.As such, it was strange that he had just started today without any hype or even a proper shop sign, but someone was already after him.That told him that he was being targeted, and Raymond was putting his money on Zachary.The sole reason for that was how Zachary had come earlier to ask Raymond about how much capital he had, and he had humbly said a few hundred thousand.The fact that Billy had come and immediately demanded 500 thousand made even more sense—he wanted to siphon all of Raymond's capital.Even losing money wasn't the worst part—the worst was being labeled as an amateur.When that happened, customers who wanted the good stuff wouldn't come to him, and he would find

Just as Jacob was celebrating fooling Raymond, getting his revenge, and earning 200 thousand on top of that, Charlie was left musing to himself on the second floor of the teahouse.He knew that Billy was a conman as soon as he saw him, but he didn't understand why Raymond would buy from Billy.Could the item really be medieval as Raymond stated?As soon as the thought occurred to him, Charlie was sure of it. Given Raymond's knowledge of antiques, there was no way he would mess up in Antique Street of Aurous Hill.While his father-in-law and Zachary had worked hard to weave this elaborate conspiracy, Charlie still wondered how they would take the news that Raymond had bought something worth millions for just 300 thousand.Meanwhile, Raymond watched as Billy left and locked the door from the inside before studying the bronze sculpture once more.He trusted his own judgment that it was a gilded bronze statue from the medieval era. He was playing down its importance since the bronze

Meanwhile, Raymond sighed unhappily. "I really can't afford four hundred grand—like I said, there's not much to offer here in my shop, which I've been investing a lot in. I'd have to pay rent to the owner soon as well, and everything would end terribly for me if I paid that much…"Billy blurted right then, "You said it's medieval and worth millions, didn't you? You'd make a fortune if you sold it!"Raymond sighed again. "Million-dollar antiques aren't that easily sold, and people would be especially skeptical with a small business like mine. I could sell it at an auction too, but that's only happening when someone decides to organize one, not to mention the troublesome appraisal processes it involves.""And right now, I just think it's medieval in terms of style, but I'm no authority in the matter. In the end, it's up to experts and specific groups that would verify it, and if I messed up, it's entirely my loss.""Even if I'm lucky and it's medieval, I'd still have to wait until th

"Invest?!"Billy was left dumbstruck at the term.What even was this fool up to? This definitely wasn't in the script! What about the questions he was supposed to ask? It was like sitting for a grade-schooler test and suddenly being hit with a bar exam!In the car, Jacob blurted out, "What the hell is that bastard thinking? Is he really going to pay 250 thousand?!"Zachary pursed his lips. "Maybe he's just throwing us bait. Think about it—if we took the deal, we'd have to leave a contact number.""After that, he would trick us and say he sold it for ten million and lure us in for the five million. We'd definitely show up, wouldn't we? Once we came, it might turn out that he has called the cops and would even produce\ the bronze sculpture as evidence. Wouldn't we be just shooting ourselves in the foot?"Jacob was left in misery, his face contorting as he pouted, "But you said the cops wouldn't get involved…"Zachary rolled his eyes, "Yes, they wouldn't most of the time since that

However, neither Zachary nor Jacob expected Raymond to confuse them further as he asked Billy, "If you can afford to wait, you can leave the bronze sculpture with me as a consignment. I'll only take 10% off the sales while you get the rest—how about that?"Jacob was stunned and asked Zachary, "What the hell is he up to? Did he get too deep into character?"Zachary shook his head. "I don't get it either… is he trying to keep the bronze sculpture to use as evidence against us?"Jacob frowned. "I thought you said there was a gentleman agreement in this business, and the cops won't really care anyway?"Zachary snorted. "He said he would keep it as a consignment, meaning that he won't spend a dime. What if he told all the antique dealers instead of going to the cops? He would prove that he's sharp, making a name for himself… and what can we do? Do we take back the bronze sculpture? Even if we do, can we really ask for it?'"Fuck!" Jacob swore. "Then what are we waiting for? Tell Billy

In Treasure Measure, even Billy was having a hard time understanding what was going on.Before he came, Zachary made it very clear that he was here to dupe Raymond Cole, and he had come.As such, his job was now to claim that this bronze sculpture which was made in the last century was actually from the Renaissance era and then sell it to Raymond at a cutthroat price.But now, Raymond himself was saying that it was medieval? What was that supposed to mean?Even as he was left confused, he blurted out, "Sir, if you say it's from medieval times… then how much is it worth?"Raymond thought about it and said, "It's quite an unpopular item, but it's not to say that no one would buy it or that no one likes it. The main issue is that there were plenty of wars at that time, and most bronze would be used for weapons. Copper production would be low with rationing as well, so bronze tools were naturally rare for civilians.""Gilding is common for better quality items, and from the northern

Zachary couldn't help pointing at the screen and snapping, "Fucking loser! The more you feel pressed, the less you should be nervous! What are you thinking?! You're falling right under that bastard's trap!"Jacob was frustrated too, growling through his teeth, "Shit! I didn't think that bastard was a sly old fox. Fucking hell!"He then sighed, shaking his head. "Forget it, Zachary—I'm going home to pack my shit, and I'll depart for Dubai first thing tomorrow. Just handle that bronze sculpture for me and wire the money over."As he was about to get off, Zachary sighed in exasperation and apologetically said, "Sorry, Mr. Wilson… but it's fine! Even if this plan screwed up, just let me cook up another plan to destroy Raymond Cole!"Jacob ignored him as he strode out of the car, but that was when Raymond spoke audibly from Zachary's phone, "You can calm down. I'm not accusing you of lying to me. I just think that it's not Renaissance… Rather, it's medieval.""E-Early medieval…?" Billy

In Treasure Measure, Raymond unwrapped the red cloth around the bronze sculpture in front of Billy and the camera.There was a brief flash of surprise on his face, and it was soon gone.Still, he picked up the bronze sculpture, fiddling with it as he asked, "Do you know where it's from?""Yeah," Billy nodded. "A Renaissance-era sculpture. I think the base makes it obvious."Raymond looked up at him and asked in curiosity, "Are you sure about that?"Billy, presuming that Raymond had already noticed a catch, quickly said, "Well, the old man had an expert check it, and the expert said it was immediately obvious! To be honest, I want to sell it because the old man just passed away—gotta sell this baby before my brother goes for a garage sale."He had certainly added more details to the script, and Raymond nodded as he said nonchalantly, "But it doesn't look Renaissance to me. Sculptures from that era—be it the craftsmanship or the unique attributes? It's quite different from this one

In the antique trade, items that raised eyebrows would only be shown in the evenings—when various shops were about to close.That was certainly the case in Antique Street, as most items arriving in the evening were either freshly excavated, stolen, or forgery used to dupe unsuspecting victims.Even if Raymond had started his career abroad, he had learned every last unspoken rule during his earlier stint in Aurous Hill.Seeing the wariness on Billy's face and the way he was holding something in his arms, Raymond knew right away that what he carried wasn't legal.Still, the antique trade was no different here than it was abroad.Tomb raiding, forgery, or adding some touch-ups that increased the value of an item—everyone across the globe pretty much played the same tricks, and Raymond had his fair share of experience.Still, he did not let his wariness show, instead grinning, "Yes, of course. Come on in—let's talk inside!"And with that, he quickly led Billy inside.Meanwhile, bot
