Late at night.Eastcliff.Sheldon could not hide his disappointment as he returned to his own home.His mood was very complicated at this moment, and he was in a state of utter confusion.Earlier in the evening, Rosalie’s biological mother, Yashita, had come to Schulz Group to meet him.As soon as the both of them met, Yashita began anxiously asking him about Rosalie’s whereabouts.However, Sheldon did not know how he should respond to her question.This was because he did not know where Rosalie was either.It seemed as though Rosalie had evaporated from the face of this world, leaving absolutely no clues behind at all.Yashita, who was missing an arm, knelt in front of Sheldon as she cried and pleaded with Sheldon because she hoped that Sheldon would do everything within his means to find out Rosalie’s whereabouts. After all, she was still his biological daughter.Sheldon agreed to her request.Rosalie was indeed his biological daughter. This had been supported by the resul

Helen nodded slightly. She had never cared or interfered in Sheldon’s work ever since she had married him.This was because she felt that there was no need for her to interfere with a man’s affairs.Therefore, she had never asked Sheldon about the details of his work before.When she saw that Sheldon looked very tired, she said, “You can change your clothes first. I will put some water into the bathtub for you so that you can take a good bath first. You should turn off your cell phone when you go to bed tonight. You are not allowed to get out of bed until you wake up naturally tomorrow!”Sheldon was a little moved, and he hurriedly said, “Honey, you don’t need to worry about me. I can fill the bathtub up with water on my own.”Helen replied, “I just used the water in the bathtub. It will take quite some time to release the water and change the water in the bathtub. You should just change your clothes and rest for a while first.”Sheldon smiled as he said, “It’s okay. I can just s

In each episode, Sheldon and Helen would always discuss who sung each song better or who interpreted the songs better. The both of them would always watch the program happily together with great interest.Until one day, a female singer named Susan sang a cover of a song called .When Helen heard the song, she had started crumbling emotionally again. She covered her face as she started crying miserably in front of the television.The lyrics of that song were still fresh in Sheldon’s memory.The lyrics went like this:“You opened up your arms and melted me,You softly rubbed your fingertips against me and crushed me, You stirred up winds and clouds and swept me away,You lifted up waves and then abandoned me…The both of us are too imbalanced,Love and hatred, are all controlled by you.But today, I can’t leave you.No matter whether you love me or not…”Susan’s voice and vocal range were simply excellent, and it was simply heartbreaking when the song reach

As the eldest daughter-in-law of the Schulz family, Helen’s first reaction after seeing this headline was to quickly click into the article to understand what was happening.Although she rarely asked about matters relating to her husband or the Schulz family, no matter what it was, she was still a member of the Schulz family. So, she had naturally heard a little about the things happening in the family recently.Her son and daughter had been kidnapped and almost gotten killed in Japan. This incident left Helen with lingering fears, and it also made her feel a little more concerned about the situation in Japan.She also knew that Rosalie had assassinated and annihilated the entire Matsumoto family. Although she felt that they had gone a little overboard in this matter, she knew that Sheldon was extremely angry at that time. When he was giving this order, he was extremely determined, and there was no room for negotiation at all.After that, Rosalie and a large group of top masters fr

What was even more hateful was the fact that in recent years, his illegitimate daughter had been living in the Schulz family mansion as a bodyguard. She had always been by his side!This made her feel a total sense of betrayal, and she felt a sense of coldness spreading from her head all the way to her toes!Helen desperately tried to control her trembling hands as she continued reading the article. In the follow-up context, even the Japanese Homeland Security Bureau felt that the Schulz family was indeed worse than beasts!They would be willing to sell out the life of their own daughter and granddaughter all for the sake of a little profit and interest! They were simply extremely vicious and cold-hearted!When Helen saw this, she finally got her dander up.She looked at the wedding photo of Sheldon and herself on the wall, and she could not help but feel a little nauseous when she thought about her marriage to him for so many years.However, she suddenly felt relieved again in a

When Helen saw Sheldon kneeling on the ground and crying, Helen subconsciously took a few steps back as she freed her body from his grasp. After that, she said seriously, “Sheldon, you should understand my personality very well. I brought up a gentleman’s agreement with three clauses to you when I agreed to marry you. Do you remember what it is?”Sheldon lifted his head with flushed red eyes as he nodded slightly and said, “I remember! I remember! I remember every word! Honey, I was really just confused for a moment. Please, I beg you. Please just forgive me this once, okay?”Helen had a stern expression on her face as she said, “Sheldon, I want you to tell me what were those three clauses in our gentleman’s agreement first.”Sheldon felt his heart hurting as he said in a trembling voice, “The first clause of our gentleman’s agreement was that no matter what time or what kind of situation it was, as long as… as long as…”Helen probed, “As long as what?”Sheldon sighed as he said,

Helen asked him, “Sheldon, do you know why I loved Curtis so much back then?”Sheldon was startled at this time.He looked at Helen before he asked in a hoarse voice, “Why?”Helen laughed bitterly before she said in a pained voice, “Back then, when Curtis was about to get married, I also ran and confessed my love for him just like how Yashita confessed her love for you…”“I honestly thought about giving my body to him. I even gave him the same reason as Yashita did…”“At that time, I told him: Curtis, I have already loved you for so many years without getting anything in return at all. Even if you truly do not love me and cannot give me the end result that I am hoping for, don’t leave me with any last regrets…”“I even said: Curtis, for a woman, the most precious thing is her chastity. The reason why chastity is the most precious and valuable thing to every woman is because every woman would want to leave it for the man she loves the most. As for me, I hope that I can leave my ch

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

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
