The men replied, “Yes, we understand!”With that, they escorted the three men out of the hall.Tyler and Reuben kept wailing and begging for mercy. Tyler turned to look at Lord Moore and shouted, “Father… Please! I’m your son! Please help me ask Master Wade for mercy and let him spare me! I’ll die in Sierra Leone otherwise! Father!”Lord Moore’s heart was twitching in despair.Charlie had said that they would have to stay in Sierra Leone for 20 years. Tyler was already over 50 this year. He wouldn’t be able to survive two decades in an underdeveloped and poor country like Sierra Leone. It was likely that he would die there before the 20-year period was up.Hence, this may be the last time they saw each other in this life.Reuben’s legs were limp at this moment. As he was dragged out of the hall, he pleaded bitterly, “Grandpa! I’m only in my twenties this year! I don’t want to be confined to Sierra Leone! Grandpa, please help me!”Lord Moore’s face twisted into an agonizing grima

Since Jasmine had encountered harm from outsiders as well as members of the Moore family after going to Japan to discuss the collaboration details this time, Lord Moore originally thought that he would rather ask Jasmine to give up any further plans to continue extending their cooperation and collaboration overseas. This was because he wanted to prevent her from encountering this kind of danger again in the future.However, he never would have expected her to obtain such a generous collaboration contract with Nippon Steel.Nippon Steel was a leader in the global steel industry. In this industry, their right to speak was extremely high. If a company like Moore Group wanted to collaborate with them, they would have to go and beg and plead for it.They would not only have to request for it, but they would also have to prepare and get all the land, local connections, and relations in order before inviting Nippon Steel over to collaborate with them.This feeling was tantamount to tidyin

Everyone’s eyes widened after taking a look at the contract.This was indeed a formal contract, and the terms written in the contract were all very clear and simple with no ambiguous marginal terms or any contents that would hide any form of business risks at all.At the end of the contract, there was also Nippon Steel’s official seal and Shinwa’s signature. It was indeed a true and valid contract.At this time, everyone could not help but feel very pleased and happy.The old director said excitedly, “Oh! I have never seen Nippon Steel giving such a big concession when signing a contract with an outsider! This could be said to be totally unprecedented! Our Chairman Moore’s face is really incredible! Chairman Moore’s face is worth at least two or three billion dollars, or even more!”The others also agreed as they said, “That’s right! Chairman Moore won such a favorable contract from Nippon Steel. This is almost unheard of in Nippon Steel’s company’s history! If we announce this ne

When Charlie heard this, he was slightly astonished, and he asked, “Why haven’t you let her go even though it has already been nine days? Didn’t I say that I was only going to keep her here for seven days?”Albert was a little embarrassed as he said, “Master Wade, I felt that I should only let her go after obtaining your approval. I did not want to make the decision on my own…”Isaac exclaimed, “Albert, why haven’t you let her go yet?! Miss Carmen is very temperamental! If you did not let her go at the predetermined time, I am worried that she will turn around and take revenge on you, then!”Albert laughed slightly as he scratched his head and said, “That… well, I simply thought that Master Wade was in Japan for the past few days to save Miss Moore. After that, you had to suffer a little to come back by ship too. Therefore, I thought that Master Wade, you will certainly be very busy, and I didn’t want to call you to bother you about this matter first. I thought that I could just wai

“And you guys who are working for Charlie! You are not letting me go, right? I will surely settle the score with all of you, one by one when I get out!”“Do you really think that I, Carmen Wade, am someone that you can just toy with?! Hurry up and let me go now!!!”The more Carmen scolded and cursed, the more agitated she felt. At this time, she could not stop coughing. “Cough, cough, cough… Cough, cough, cough… If you refuse to let me go, I will turn around, throw all of you into the Yaak River, and feed you to the fishes there! I am going to kill each and every one of you one by one! I will kill you and make sure that you can never be reincarnated!”It was no wonder Carmen was acting so hysterically at this point. After all, she had been living in this kind of place where the lowest class population lived. Therefore, she was already on the verge of collapsing.Also, this place in Aurous Hill was located toward the south of the Yaak River. The weather was humid during winter, and

Carmen really did not want to continue living this kind of tough and difficult life anymore.If she truly had to wait until the Tomb Sweeping Festival before she could go home, that would be no different from taking her life, then.At this time, Jeremiah could not help but comfort her, “Carmen, just hold your temper in and wait patiently for a few more days. I will call Charlie if he is still unwilling to let you go, then.”Carmen was naturally filled with grievances at this time, but she did not dare to say anything anymore.She secretly thought to herself, “I understand everything clearly now. In my father’s eyes, Charlie is the most important person in the Wade family.”“After all, if he really marries Yule’s daughter, he will be the heir of the Golding family’s assets and properties worth trillions of dollars. That will certainly be of great help to the Wade family.”“Under this kind of situation, I am a daughter who is already married to someone else. So, how could I possibl

Albert was immediately very submissive as he said, “Master Wade, what are your instructions?”Charlie smiled as he said, “My aunt will need to continue staying in Aurous Hill for a few more days. During this period of time, I will need to trouble you to continue keeping an eye on her. Everything will remain the same as before.”Albert hurriedly asked, “Master Wade, when you say a few more days… how many days would it be exactly?”Charlie thought for a while before he laughed and said, “Let’s make it seven days, then! We should round it up to one week so that it will be easier to keep count! If these extra seven days do not work, that can only mean that my aunt’s temper is simply too terrible. If that is the case, we will have to give her a complete treatment course.”Albert laughed as he said, “Okay, Master Wade! I got it!”What Charlie was thinking at this time was, ‘Carmen, you are so self-opinionated and conceited just because you are the daughter of the Wade family. You were s

Carmen was finally completely subdued.Although she was still filled with hatred for Charlie in her heart, she did not dare to continue bargaining with Charlie after hearing his words.She had already realized that she would not be able to suppress Charlie’s character and behavioral style.Also, Aurous Hill was Charlie’s territory, and even Lord Wade was on Charlie’s side now. Therefore, she had no choice but to tolerate it.She truly could not afford to provoke him. Thus, she could only suppress all the dissatisfaction and anger in her heart as she earnestly replied, “Okay… I choose the first option…”Charlie nodded before he told Albert, “Albert, you heard it. You must ask your men to give her strict supervision over the next seven days. If there is any more screaming and yelling or scolding and cursing, you should let me know about it at first notice!”Albert hurriedly stood straight as he said out loud, “Master Wade, don’t worry! I will certainly order my men to monitor her

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6475
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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6474
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
