When Jefferson let out a sigh, it made everyone somewhat grimace in regret.Lady Dunn hurriedly pinched him on the waist and chided in a low voice, “Shush! Stop rubbing it in! Hurry and get in to get ready for dinner!”Jefferson sighed and said, “Well, Helen is so big now. She is more open-minded than we are. I’m also just stating my opinion. You don’t have to be too discreet about it.”Helen nodded and said seriously, “That’s right, Mom. I’m not angry or sad at all. You don’t have to be so sensitive.”Lady Dunn was shocked. “Helen, you’re truly not angry at Sheldon for keeping this secret from you for so many years?”Helen said earnestly, “Nope, I’m not angry. Instead, I feel relieved.”Jefferson laughed. “Wonderful! I’m happy to know that you’ve moved on! Frankly speaking, I’ve always felt that you’ve been unhappy over the years. Now that you’ve moved on, I’m heartily happy for you.”Helen nodded with a smile. “Thanks, Father!”Jefferson laughed out loud and beckoned, “Let’s

After smoking the same cigarette for twenty years, the tobacco company had improved its factory’s production line, upgraded the formula, and replaced the cigarette paper and filter material.Everyone felt that the upgraded version was more exquisite and upscale than before, but Jefferson felt that the taste was not right and could not adapt to it. Later, he had even fallen sick because of this.When his subordinates had heard about his hospitalization, he had hurriedly gone to visit him. After learning that Jefferson’s illness had been caused by the difference in the taste of the cigarette he had smoked for twenty years, he immediately called and made the tobacco company restart the discontinued production line that had been dismantled and was ready for scrapping, and they produced the original version of the cigarettes for Jefferson alone. Miraculously, it had instantly cured his illness.However, Jefferson felt guilty for abusing his influence and power, so he specifically ask

While the entire Dunn family was indulged in the happy and harmonious ambiance, Sheldon had packed his luggage and was ready to depart for Australia.He was in a very passive position this time. His father had explicitly told him to lie low before the dust settled, so he could only do so upon his command.Before leaving, he called Jaime and said, “Jaime, come to my study with your sister.”Jaime hurriedly said, “Okay, Dad. We’ll come over right now.”After saying that, he ended the call and said, “Hey, Sophie, Dad wants to see us in his study.”Sophie huffed agitatedly, “You go by yourself. I don’t want to see him!”Sophie was still having a hard time accepting the fact that her father had cheated on her mother and had an illegitimate daughter who was only a year younger than her, so she was very reluctant to see Sheldon right now.Jaime persuaded in a helpless tone, “Sophie, as their children, we should not interfere with our parents’ business so much. Besides, are you really g

Jaime said furiously, “Dad! Grandpa is too much! He was the one who sold Rosalie out! Frankly speaking, he is a sly fox who betrayed his own granddaughter! Not only did he not think about how to solve the immediate crisis, but he even pushed you out as a target! He is really too much!”Sheldon waved his hand and said seriously, “You can talk about it here, but don’t you say anything when you get out of this room, do you hear me? This is how your grandfather is like, anyway…”“In his eyes, personal interests are the most important element, and everything is sacrificable for the sake of personal interests.”“He can hand Rosalie over to the Japanese Self-Defense Force today; who knows if he will hand any of us over to some other group tomorrow? So, when you’re around him, remember this: he who rules the family is like a tiger!”Jaime nodded solemnly.Sheldon added, “After I leave, accompany your mother more, apologize to her on my behalf, and throw in some good words for me, will you

As Jaime and Sheldon were talking, Sheldon’s phone suddenly rang.He glanced at the screen, and the caller ID indicated that it was his brother, Steven.Thinking of his sinister act of adding insult to injury at the most critical moment, Sheldon’s face twisted into a disdainful grimace, and he became extremely upset.He clicked on the loudspeaker and asked coldly, “What?”Steven chuckled and said, “Hey, Sheldon, the car as well as the plane are ready. It’s time to send you to the airport.”Grinding his teeth in dismay, Sheldon replied in a cold voice, “Okay. I’ll have a few more words with Jaime and come down soon.”Steven quickly said, “Sheldon, you’d better not delay this any longer. Father is waiting for my update. He wants you to leave as soon as possible.”Sheldon held back his anger and said, “Okay, I’ll be there in five minutes!”“Alright!” Steven laughed. “I’ll be waiting for you at the door, and I’ll personally send you to the airport later!”Sheldon ended the call wi

The driver immediately started the car and left.Jaime watched the car leave the residence courtyard, feeling utterly at a loss.Tonight was more tormenting than the night he and Sophie had been kidnapped.At that time, they had faced only a life-threatening situation.But tonight, he had experienced a series of astonishing changes such as his father’s illegitimate daughter, his parents’ broken marriage, as well as his father losing his power and being exiled to Australia.He was not only worried about his parents’ relationships and his father’s future, but also his own future.Before tonight, his father was the heir of the entire Schulz family, which made him the heir apparent after his father.However, tonight’s change had transformed everything.His father had lost the favor and trust of his grandfather. If Sheldon lost his power and collapsed, his future was also bound to be gloomy.If Steven became the heir of the family, he would stand no chance at all!The worried Jaim

Half an hour later, a Boeing 747 that had been revamped into a private jet took off from Eastcliff Airport.This aircraft was of the same model as the US Presidential Air Force One, with a typical three-level cockpit layout. The aircraft could fit up to four hundred and sixty-seven passengers when it was fully loaded with passengers.However, aside from the crew, there was only one passenger in the entire plane at this moment. That passenger was none other than Sheldon.The flight distance from Eastcliff to Queensland, Australia, was about nine thousand kilometers.It would be impossible for any ordinary small and medium private jets to fly directly on such a long route.Only a large passenger aircraft such as the Boeing 747 with a range of more than ten thousand kilometers would be able to complete this kind of direct flight.At this time, Sheldon, who was on the plane, was feeling very depressed.He was looking outside the window, and as Eastcliff’s brightly lit night view got

...At the same time, in Cadfan’s study room.Steven was holding a tablet in his hand as he presented the media reports and netizens’ comments about Cadfan one by one. He smiled as he said, “Dad, this way, everyone will no longer push the blame to you or hold you responsible for Rosalie’s affairs anymore.”Lord Schulz nodded in satisfaction. At the same time, he felt completely relieved.The older a person got, the more they would care about their own reputation and image. This was especially so for people like Lord Schulz.He had already been a wise and brilliant mind for a lifetime, and he was even the life goal and role model in the minds of countless people.As he was already at his retirement age, if he were to fall and fail miserably because of Rosalie’s incident this time, his reputation as a brilliant and wise man in this lifetime would no longer be guaranteed.Therefore, deep down in his heart, he had been feeling extremely eager to push the blame and responsibility ont

Fleur had repeatedly mentioned the conspiracy theory of Ashley using a body double over the last twenty years.Tarlon had investigated from many different angles, but everything from the gender, age, dental records, to body figure pointed to the fact that the deceased was Ashley Acker.And yet, Fleur had never bought it, insisting that Curtis was prepared for them just because Curtis' son had gone missing soon after.There was no way Curtis would save his son but not his wife, and the disfigured corpse only added fuel to Fleur's suspicion.Thus, over the last twenty years, Fleur had kept a close eye on the Ackers, arranging for two 'scholars' to be embedded amongst their ranks as sleeper agents. She went that far all to determine if Ashley was dead or had faked her death.However, the scholars had since been killed in action, and they had no spies within the Ackers left.As for Tarlon, he still doubted Fleur's theory even now, but he remained respectful as he spoke, "Milady, I mu

Meanwhile, on the edge of the South Pole, Tarlon Griffin rushed outside of Fleur Griffin's room, knocking the door gingerly as he announced, "I have news, my lady!"Fleur didn't respond, but the thick wooden door between them slowly opened as if pushed by an invisible force.Tarlon entered to find Fleur seated on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles. Her eyes remained closed as she molded her Reiki, asking, "What is it?"Tarlon quickly answered, "News from Oskia. The Ackers are partnering with the Wades on a joint venture into electric-powered vehicles."Fleur slowly opened her eyes, asking quietly, "And you're telling me because?"Tarlon quickly explained, "It just came out of the blue, so I thought I should report it to you right away."Fleur sighed. "After I tried and failed to wipe out the Ackers so many times, they wouldn't dare set foot stateside. If anything, they must have decided to seek asylum in Oskia by offering a substantial investment, and it's a base whe

Silent for a while, Matilda then asked Yolden, "Do you think I can do it?""Yes!" Yolden nodded without hesitation. "You definitely won't have any problems!"Matilda sighed, shaking her head. "We traveled far abroad to study while we were young, but we didn't return to Oskia to help the country's development. It's been thirty years since, and now that we have returned to the country at the same time, I definitely wouldn't turn down such an opportunity to help."Pausing, she then said, "That said, major corporations make it a point to not hire family members. Forget spouses—employees aren't allowed to date, and one of the two will be asked to resign if necessary."Don't you think it's inappropriate since we are legally married, having gotten our certificate and all? And if we set these precedents, we would have trouble asking other employees to follow that policy. You are going to be a CEO, so you need a very clear answer on this issue."Yolden shrugged. "In the first place, that p

Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

"That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki
