Chapter 2144

Author: Lord Leaf
Rosalie dodged his glances, not daring to answer him for fear that he would notice something.

She was afraid that Charlie would find out that she was Sheldon’s illegitimate daughter. If that happened, he might not only use her as a bargaining chip to threaten her father and the Schulz family, but he might even expose her to the public.

Although she hoped that Sheldon could announce to the world that she was his daughter, she also knew that by doing so, it would jeopardize his reputation as the eldest son of the Schulz family, a husband to a lawfully wedded wife, a father to a pair of children, bringing a negative impact on his family’s happiness.

Rosalie only wanted to share her father’s worries and burdens and never once thought of giving him trouble, so, deep inside her, she was terrified that Charlie would notice any peculiarity.

Sensing her dodging his gaze and keeping her mouth shut at the same time, Charlie felt that something was amiss and said, “You are now the number one f

    Charlie simply made speculation and observed Rosalie’s reaction while he was at it, and unexpectedly, as soon as he said it, she trembled uncontrollably.At this moment, Charlie was absolutely certain that he had guessed correctly.Rosalie was indeed Sheldon’s illegitimate daughter!No wonder!No wonder the Schulz family was willing to spend so much effort to rescue her from the Japanese judiciary!It was because this girl was Sheldon’s daughter!This was getting more and more interesting!Rosalie was bewildered at this moment!She didn’t expect that this man would be able to guess her true identity in such a short time!There were only two people in the entire Schulz family who knew about her identity, and that was her father, Sheldon, and her grandfather, Cadfan!Even Sophie and Jaime didn’t know that she, who had been their bodyguard, was actually their sister!Of course, Sheldon’s wife did not know this fact as well.Rosalie was afraid that Charlie would expose this mat

    Rosalie was rendered speechless as Charlie questioned her.She had been brainwashed ever since she was a child, which explained the ultimate devotion she had toward the Schulz family. Due to such upbringing, she firmly believed that she should give her all for them and her father, even if she had to die for it.But of course, she couldn’t say this to Charlie, so she continued to beg Charlie, “Sir, I’ve lived a short life, but I have hardly ever begged anyone. Today, I beg you, please just kill me. Stop torturing me. Please…”Charlie shook his head and said indifferently, “No can do. I’m sorry, you can’t die now!”***Meanwhile, in the cockpit of another vessel, the captain and deck crews were dumbfounded by the scene!They couldn’t comprehend why Rosalie had stood still as if a spell had been cast on her after striking Charlie once!Moreover, she was nodding, shaking her head, and crying out in agony. This scene was rather odd and mystifying to the people on board.The captain

    At such a close distance, the power of the heavy-duty compound crossbow was enough to penetrate a human skull.Also, Mr. Good was a top assassin who was extremely good at using a crossbow as his weapon, so he had absolute certainty that he could kill Charlie with a single blow.He had been working as an assassin for fifteen years and had never failed to kill his target with a crossbow. In the blink of an eye, he aimed the crossbow at Charlie and pulled the trigger without any hesitation!The bowstring produced a crisp buzzing sound followed by the release of the arrow made of titanium alloy and carbon fiber that sped straight toward Charlie’s temple.The speed of the arrow exceeded one hundred meters per second, not to mention that this heavy-duty compound crossbow was a modified killing machine, so its speed was almost close to two hundred meters per second.At such a speed, the target had less than 0.5 seconds to respond at such a close distance, which meant he wouldn’t even a

    Although Rosalie was unwilling to admit her own failure and inadequacy, she couldn’t help but be impressed by Charlie’s unbelievably strong power and extraordinary strength. It had completely exceeded her own perception of martial arts.Charlie sneered and turned his head to look at the opposite vessel.Mr. Good, who was holding the compound crossbow, was startled by his glare. He hesitated and then whispered to the captain, “No matter if I manage to shoot this last arrow or not, you must turn the ship’s horsepower to the maximum and leave this place at the fastest speed this vessel can muster! That man is too powerful. We’d better stay as far away from him as possible!”The captain immediately put his hand on the engine power gear while saying to the first mate beside him, “After Mr. Good shoots the second arrow, you immediately hard a-port, and I’ll simultaneously turn the horsepower to the maximum. Do you understand?”The first mate immediately answered, “Yes!”“Good!” The capt

    Everyone in the vessel screamed in horror upon hearing that remark!At this moment, there was no one on the vessel who could fight Charlie!Rosalie had been hit by a poisoned arrow and was about to die soon, while the remaining martial artists of the Schulz family had all been thrown into the sea. Some of them had sunk into the cold seawater due to exhaustion.What remained was Mr. Good, who was hidden secretly in the vessel, and his existence had been kept secret even to Rosalie. However, he was now dead through and through as well.The only people left in the cabin were a few crew members besides the captain and first mate. They had never practiced martial arts at all, so they were even less of a match for Charlie.Just as they were all jittery, not knowing what to do, Charlie suddenly kicked the door of the cockpit open and walked in.Upon his appearance, the crew members were so scared that their legs went weak. One of them knelt on the ground, crying and begging, “Please s

    The captain was so scared that he pissed his pants on the spot and cried out, “Spare me! I’ll talk! I’ll tell you everything!”Then, he choked, “I’ve always been in charge of driving the cruise ship for Lord Schulz, but this time, he sent me here specifically for this task. Originally, he did not intend to rescue Miss Schulz tonight as it would not only cost a lot of money, but it would also mean getting himself into a great deal of trouble, so he deliberately set up a scheme…”Charlie frowned and asked, “What scheme?”The captain answered frankly, “According to the plan, after the ship leaves tonight, I would sail it directly to the designated location on the sea where the Maritime Self-Defense Force will be waiting in ambush there. Once we arrive at the designated location, they will immediately siege our ship and capture Miss Schulz…”Charlie was even more confused. “Capture her? But why? Why does he want Rosalie to be captured again after putting in so much effort to rescue her

    The captain simply wanted to survive at this moment. So, he asked Charlie in a trembling voice, “Would you spare my life if I listened to you and obeyed everything you ask me to do?”Charlie nodded as he gave his word, “As long as you are willing to cooperate with me obediently, I will certainly spare your life. I can even arrange for you to have a new identity so that you can start a new life.”As soon as the other party heard this, he immediately said with gratitude, “I will certainly obey you, then!”Charlie was very satisfied, and he said, “Okay. You should do everything as I say, then!”Having said that, Charlie thought for a while before he said, “Since that old man, Cadfan, has already come up with his own contingency plan, you can just tell him that Rosalie has already been killed as per his contingency plan.”After that, he immediately whispered a few words into the other party’s ear.The captain then nodded before he picked up his satellite phone immediately.

    At this time, the captain hurriedly said, “Lord Schulz, I will set off now. I will certainly find the body and send it to the Japanese Self-Defense Force!”Cadfan replied, “You don’t need to come back if you cannot figure out a way to get this done!”“Okay, Lord Schulz!” The captain agreed immediately. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Charlie with a pleading look on his face as he said, “Sir, if Cadfan Schulz finds out that I lied to him, he will certainly hack me into a thousand pieces…”Charlie replied indifferently, “Don’t worry. Since you have already acted according to my instructions, I will naturally keep my word and honor my promise!”Having said that, Charlie continued, “The few of you should come to Aurous Hill with me tonight. I will help all of you settle down in a safe place after arriving in Aurous Hill. At that time, all of you can live incognito for a while first. After I am done dealing with the Schulz family, all of you will be able to return to your own i

    In groups like these, any gossip would immediately spread like wildfire as people share everything here with their other circles.Within minutes of these people's good work, Antique Street was abuzz even as the skies darkened: one of the antique traders had been swindled for 300 thousand, and it was Raymond Cole—the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe at that!Some of them wondered when Raymond had actually returned while others were laughing.He was supposed to be the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe, but he had messed up as well? You had to be kidding!Many were dumbstruck too—how would Raymond survive in Antique Street after losing so much money? It had been so long since such a major scam had been pulled!As such, all the antique dealers were asking one question: how did Raymond Cole get fooled?Meanwhile, Mick didn't leak the security footage right away, instead sending his people out to spread the news in other channels, claiming that Raymond thought he had won big by

    Mick had already clipped the security footage and was waiting for Zachary's word.He had checked the footage repeatedly as well and was only getting more impressed with his masterful acting by the second. He looked just like a maestro, and every detail he mentioned was flawless and showed experience.Zacahry even said that Raymond had truly slipped up with that bronze sculpture, leaving him endlessly thrilled.The proverbial missing piece of the puzzle was here!Hence, calling all the staff he trusted, he told them excitedly, "Spread the word right away—Raymond Cole slipped up, spending 300 thousand on a fake Renaissance-era bronze sculpture!"His staff had no idea of the conspiracy involved, only that Mick had said that someone had tried to sell a counterfeit bronze sculpture but he had seen through it right away and chased him away, only for Raymond to end up buying the fake bronze sculpture soon after.Someone asked, "Mr. Crane, don't you think Raymond Cole bought from the man

    Raymond had said everything he should and shouldn't and with complete sincerity exactly because Billy would never believe it.As Billy just wanted to swindle him, it didn't matter how sincere Raymond was—he wanted the 300 thousand whatever it took. The key here was that Billy had refused a better prospect when told it was possible, and there was evidence that would support Raymond if either he or Zachary realized the truth and came to start trouble.That meant Raymond had nothing to worry about—they could take this to the United Nations but he'd still win this case.Having been in the antique trade for so long, he had seen every form of oddity and was always cautious with people, considering every aspect of any issue.Hence, once he downloaded the security footage to his phone, Raymond decided that he needed to sell the bronze sculpture—not because he was in urgent need of money, but because he realized that there were those who wanted him out of Aurous Hill's Antique Street.Afte

    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
