At this time, Charlie was pushing his electric bike out of the main gate of the villa at Thompson First.Claire’s company’s Spring Festival Holiday had already ended, and she had already officially returned to work. Charlie’s father-in-law, Jacob, had also begun to reinvest and put all of his focus and attention into the affairs at the Calligraphy and Painting Association.Elaine, who was still on crutches, had made breakfast in the morning. After Jacob and Claire were done with breakfast, they drove their own BMWs to get on with their businesses. Charlie cleaned the house a little before he prepared to head out to buy some meat and eggs.Although the small vegetable garden at home could provide them with all the vegetables and fruits that most families needed, they would still have to buy their meat and eggs from the supermarket.Charlie rode his electric bike out, but he was not in a hurry to set off. Instead, he parked his electric bike at the side of the road along the Thompson

This was Charlie’s purpose in keeping Rosalie alive.He planned to send Rosalie back to Eastcliff when the time was right.Immediately afterward, he put his cell phone away. After that, he stepped on the accelerator of the electric bike, and the small machine made a buzzing sound as the electric bike started moving out.After leaving the Thompson First community, Charlie was turning his electric bike around as he prepared to go to Isaac’s hotel. At this time, he heard a familiar voice shouting behind him with a hint of nervousness, “Brother-in-Law!”Charlie subconsciously turned his head around, and he saw a familiar woman beckoning him from the sidewalk behind him.“Wendy?” Charlie was really surprised upon observing the woman carefully.It was not the first or second day since his family and Lady Wilson’s family had turned hostile against one another. For such a long time, the two families had been mutually destructive, just like water and fire.They would not greet each other

When she heard Charlie’s words, Wendy hurriedly nodded, and she choked up as she said seriously, “Brother-in-Law, you are right… now, I… I have already realized my own mistakes… I am no longer the arrogant, ignorant, and incompetent young lady who looked down on everyone else back then…”As she spoke, Wendy lowered the zipper of her down jacket slightly, revealing the blue uniform that she was wearing inside as she said, “Brother-in-Law, look! I have already found a job for myself now. I am currently working as a courtesy lady welcoming guests at the newly opened Pearl River Point community…”Charlie asked curiously, “Why are you working as a courtesy lady, welcoming guests? If I remember correctly, you graduated from university too. Wouldn’t it be better for you to look for any other job instead of working as a courtesy lady?”Wendy was extremely ashamed as she replied in a low voice, “Well… Brother-in-Law… to tell you the truth, when my father and elder brother were scheming again

As Charlie looked at Wendy, who was standing in front of him, he did not sympathize with her even though his impression of her had already changed slightly.After that, he said faintly, “Pearl River Point is not too far from here. If you take a taxi, you will be able to get there with the starting price.”Wendy hurriedly replied, “Brother-in-Law… I really wish that I could multiply the money that I have on hand now. Alas, I cannot even bear to take the bus, let alone hail a taxi…”As she spoke, Wendy pointed at the high heels she was wearing as she said, “I was going to walk all the way there so that I can save some money. However, I happened to see you passing by. So, I decided to muster up the courage to come forward and apologize to you. At the same time, I was thinking of asking you if you could just give me a ride there…”In fact, Wendy had a very good impression of Charlie now.Ever since the day before the New Year when many powerful and reputable figures in Aurous Hill had

“You don’t have a cell phone?!”Charlie could not believe his ears when he heard Wendy’s words.These days, even the aunties who set up stalls by the street would also own a smartphone. So, how was it possible for a young and fashionable girl like Wendy to not even own her own cell phone?! This was indeed a bit unbelievable.When Wendy saw the shocked look on Charlie’s face, she felt even more embarrassed. She stuttered as she explained, “Brother-in-Law, I… I… my cell phone had been previously… taken away by Donald’s men…”Wendy lowered her head in shame after she was done speaking.After saying those words, Wendy felt as though she had truly lost all of her face.The entire Wilson family was already living in poverty, and they had nowhere else to go.She could not even afford to get herself a cell phone. So, this was how poor and desolate they really were…As soon as Charlie heard her words, he understood the situation immediately.After Donald had surrendered and pledged his

Wendy hurriedly bowed again and said, “Brother-in-Law, have a safe journey. Pay attention to your safety on the road.”“Okay. I will leave now.”Charlie waved his hand before he stepped on the accelerator of his electric bike as he left in a hurry.Wendy was filled with emotions as she stared at Charlie’s back.At this moment, what she really hoped for the most was not how much money she could make by gaining the favor of a rich heir.Instead, she really hoped that she would be able to sit on the back of Charlie’s electric bike.This was because she felt that the back seat of his electric bike looked really happy, blessed, and peaceful.***Charlie rode his electric bike all the way to Isaac’s hotel.Isaac was already waiting outside the entrance in person.When he saw Charlie riding his electric bike over, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Oh, Young Master! It is truly not befitting for someone of your status to be riding this kind of electric bike anymore! Why didn’t

In fact, Rosalie had already closed the door before Charlie had had time to see Rosalie’s perfect figure and curves.At this time, Rosalie was feeling very embarrassed and impatient. She quickly grabbed a bathrobe before putting it on. After that, she was blushing as she ran back to open the door again.As she faced Charlie, Rosalie’s face was flushed red like the rosy dawn. She said shyly, “I am sorry, Mr. Wade. Just now, I… I opened the door too abruptly…”Although Rosalie was a cruel and vicious martial arts expert, she was still very innocent when it came to emotional feelings and matters. She had never even been tempted by the opposite sex before.Therefore, as she was facing Charlie, she did not look like a martial arts master at all because of the embarrassed look on her face.Charlie was also somewhat embarrassed at this time.Rosalie was just like the feisty young lady, Aurora. This was because both of them received professional training all year round. So, the both of t

Rosalie replied a little embarrassedly, “I am sorry, Mr. Wade. I shouldn’t have interrupted you. Please continue what you were saying…”Charlie replied, “However, not long after that, the media discovered that your father, Sheldon, had flown to Australia overnight. After that, the media changed their focus, saying that it was not your grandfather, Cadfan, who had betrayed you, but it was your father, Sheldon. They said that the reason why he betrayed you and tried to silence you was because he wanted to bury the secret that you were his illegitimate daughter forever.”Rosalie’s face turned pale as she said, “Well, that… that is not… entirely impossible.”Charlie asked her, “Then, which fact do you believe more?”Rosalie thought about it for a few minutes before she said, “Mr. Wade, I believe that it is more plausible that Cadfan was the one who betrayed me.”Charlie looked at her with interest as he asked, “Oh? Why is that?”Rosalie earnestly replied, “I have already been by my f

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

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!
