Wendy looked at Charlie and wanted to say something, but she felt as though there was a lump in her throat that blocked the words from coming out.Seeing her frozen and stunned expression, Charlie directly stuffed the phone in her hands without a word and turned to Jayden and said, “Jayden, in the future, if your friends, business partners, buddies, or whoever need hostesses for their events, remember to look for Wendy here, understand?”Jayden said confidently, “Master Wade, please rest assured that once Miss Wendy starts her company operation, I’ll help her promote her business everywhere! I, Jayden Marquez, have quite a broad connection in Aurous Hill. I’m sure these friends of mine will definitely recruit Miss Wendy’s hostesses for my sake, and her business will prosper in no time!”Then, he hurriedly added, “By the way, Master Wade, tomorrow is the anniversary of several of my nightclubs, and I happen to need to hire a group of hostesses for the event. I’ll need Miss Wendy’s he

After leaving Pearl River Point, Charlie rushed to the wet market.He had spent too much time dealing with Wendy’s matter. If he didn’t hurry to buy the food back to cook, Claire would not be able to eat lunch when she got home from work.Although Aurous Hill was an ancient city, it was getting more and more modernized nowadays. Most of the old buildings were either destroyed, demolished, or renovated to suit the modernization of the city. They had basically turned into skyscrapers and high-rise buildings of the modern metropolitan city.Many traditional craft stores and markets were gradually being replaced by a variety of luxurious shop lots as well as integrated supermarkets.In the early years, there were a lot of roadside barbers who had excellent skills in haircutting and shaving. A simple haircut or shave was only about two to three dollars.However, these ancient and old-schooled barbers had long since disappeared and were now replaced by the dazzling and high-end hair sal

After Uncle Walters had stepped out of the car, he pulled the door of the back seat open and said respectfully to the woman sitting in the car, “Miss Helen, we have arrived.”The woman sitting in the car was none other than Helen.Upon disembarking the plane, she had first taken Jaime and Sophie back to the Dunn family’s old mansion with Uncle Walters to settle down and put away their luggage. Then, she had hurriedly asked Uncle Walters to bring her to see the place where Curtis had lived before he passed away.As for Jaime and Sophie, they each had their own plans in the city.Jaime went to the orphanage to talk about the donations while Sophie was sitting in her room with her laptop, continuing to search for Charlie among the thousands of people in the video.Helen was happy with their own arrangement, though. After all, she was visiting Curtis’s old residence, who was the love of her life. She didn’t feel it was appropriate to bring along her children.At this moment, Helen wa

Helen subconsciously substituted herself as Curtis’s wife in her mind, and she instantly felt that her eyes were already filled with tears.She wanted to hold the tears back, but she really would not have expected that big drops of tears would gush out of her eyes because she could not control it or hold it back at all. The tears slid down her wrinkle-free face which seemed to show no signs of aging whatsoever.The old butler who was standing aside could only sigh silently when he saw this.“Sigh… who in the entire capital would not know that the second lady of the Dunn family has been deeply in love with Curtis for so many years…”“However, who would have known that the second lady would still have such deep feelings and affection for him even after Curtis has already passed away nearly twenty years ago…”Ever since time began, love and sentimental affections would leave nothing but everlasting hatred behind.According to the ancient time, regret would be more suited for the wor

As soon as Helen heard this, she suddenly became very excited, and she blurted out, “Help me look further into it. I want to win the bid for this mansion.”The old butler nodded and said, “This mansion occupies a small area and cannot be demolished in the future. So, it is considered a low-quality asset that cannot be circulated. Therefore, it should be relatively easy for us to win the bid for this mansion when the time comes.”“Okay.” Helen replied determinedly, “We have to win the bid for this mansion no matter how much it is going to cost!”After she was done speaking, she hurriedly asked, “Uncle Walters, did you help me to speak to anyone from the judiciary? Can I go in and take a look at the mansion now?”“Yes, yes.” The old butler hurriedly said, “When I was on the phone with them just now, they told me that they will be coming over here for the asset registration and evaluation over the next two days because they will have to collect some materials in preparation for the ju

There was about an eighty percent resemblance between Charlie and his father, Curtis’s appearance.As the father and son were both from different generations, there was a big difference in their hairstyle and fashion sense. If Charlie had dressed according to his father’s style back then, the similarity in their appearances could actually make Charlie seem as though he was his father.Therefore, as soon as Helen saw him, she was so shocked, almost as though she had just seen something unbelievable.She was stunned, and apart from feeling extremely shocked, she was also completely at a loss.She did not even know if she was having hallucinations because she missed Curtis too much.Otherwise, why would a man who looked so similar to Curtis suddenly appear before her very eyes?!Moreover, when Curtis had died, he was only in his thirties.The time when Helen and Curtis had had the most contact with each other was the period before Curtis’s marriage. The both of them had barely had

Charlie felt his eyelids twitching wildly. So, he immediately turned his head around without any hesitation at all. After that, he stepped on the accelerator and left in a hurry.When Helen saw Charlie disappearing before her eyes, she hurriedly ran out to chase after him. However, when she came out, Charlie was already gone.She stood at the entrance in a daze as she looked around anxiously. After that, she murmured, “Was I hallucinating?”As she spoke, she hurriedly turned around and asked the old butler who had followed behind her, “Uncle Walters, did you see a young man who looked particularly like Curtis just now?”Although the old butler had only caught a glimpse of Charlie, he could still reply with great certainty, “Miss Helen, I saw a young man riding an electric bike just now. He certainly looks just like Mr. Wade!”As soon as Helen heard this, she was so excited that she was trembling a little as she spoke up and said, “That’s right… that’s right… Uncle Walters, since y

At the same time, Charlie had already escaped hundreds of meters away on his electric bike.In order to make sure that Helen would not be able to find him, he did not even buy any groceries, and he simply rushed all the way back to the villa at Thompson First.While he was on the way, Charlie called Isaac. As soon as the phone call was connected, Charlie instructed, “Mr. Cameron, someone went to the old mansion where my parents used to live today. Please help me find out who that person is!”Isaac asked in surprise, “Young Master, you went back to the old mansion today?”“Yes!” Charlie said, “I saw a woman there. She looked at me and called out my father’s name. I want you to help me find out about her identity and to find out whether this person is an enemy or a friend. I want to know how this person is connected to my father.”“Okay!” Isaac replied without any hesitation, “I will look into this matter now!”Charlie said again, “By the way, there is one more thing that you need

While Charlie was waiting for Claire at the airport, Jacob and Elaine were taken to the traffic police station.But even in the patrol car, Elaine did not stop lashing out at Jacob.As such, the traffic police had no choice but to call up another patrol car to bring them over separately.Charlie was hence left wondering what those two were up to this time as they were nowhere to be seen when Claire's flight was about to land and weren't answering his texts.Fortunately, Charlie never considered them reliable, so he was fine whether they showed up or not.If they did, they could all head home in the same car.If they didn't, he just had to take a cab home with Claire.It was past three when Claire's private jet landed, and Claire herself cleared the checkpoint in just half an hour, wheeling a trolley with her luggage.Seeing Charlie from afar, she couldn't help quickening her pace as she beamed.Charlie hurried toward her as well, and Claire shoved her trolley aside when they w

However, to Jacob's shock, Elaine wasn't misled at all as she growled icily, "Why would I ask anyone else?! If there's someone I must question, it's Matilda! She's getting married, isn't she? Good! I will be there and ask her why she hooked up with my husband!"Jacob turned pale right then.Matilda's son and even some of their old classmates would be attending her wedding.If Elaine went, he would be exposed, and he wouldn't be able to stay in Aurous Hill out of shame!His nerves gnawing at him, Jacob could only plead, "Please, just trust me this once! Anything else aside, she's getting married, anyway—there's no way that I'd have anything to do with her! That alone should prove my innocence!"Elaine snorted. "If Matilda returned when I was arrested, it means she has been back for a while! And you're saying nothing happened since? Hell, even if she's married, it doesn't prove that she wasn't up to some hanky-panky with you! Maybe while I was arrested and refused a divorce when you

The driver was left dumbstruck—this wasn't how it was supposed to go.Still, he blurted, "C-Crashing into a Cullinan? I might end up dead instead…""Fine! Then let's change cars, and you crash into ours—how about that?!" Elaine promptly retorted before continuing, "Or we could just stand right in front of your car while you run into us! I just happen to have a death wish, but if you don't kill me now, I'll kill you! Don't think about getting away either—I know your car plate! I'll sell this car and use the money to put a bounty on your head! I don't care what happens to me now! I'll claw my nails into the devil's face even if he shows up!"The driver was actually quite experienced, but even he had yet to meet someone as ridiculous as Elaine.Barely able to keep his hands steady, he threw them up as he apologized, "I'm so sorry, ma'am—I just lost my cool. I'm merely a humble driver of a Honda Civic while you own a Rolls. Hell, I spent fifty bucks buying that red emblem from Amazon,

Elaine may have led a life as if she was above the rules, but beneath that tough exterior lay crippling insecurities and a horrific inferiority complex.She was always afraid of being belittled—but more than that, of being ostracized and betrayed.Over the years, the greatest source of her complexes could all be traced back to Matilda.After all, Matilda had been a star back in their school days. Because Elaine was a close friend of hers, many boys would get chummy with Elaine, but only because they were interested in Matilda.Being from a poor farmer's family, Elaine had been scorned plenty and therefore felt exceedingly inferior around Matilda.It was from that sense of inferiority that Elaine had inadvertently developed a one-sided rivalry against Matilda, and she believed her greatest triumph over Matilda in this life was the moment she had stolen Jacob from her.However, while Elaine presumed that she could hold that victory over Matilda's head, Lady Wilson had soured that v

Moreover, given Elaine's ridiculous temper, Jacob knew she would definitely go overboard and destroy him.He wouldn't even have a place to live at that point, and it would really be game over if she held a grudge and stormed the Calligraphy and Painting Association!Under such circumstances, he couldn't ask for a divorce—hell, he might even refuse a divorce if Elaine asked for one!However, that was when Elaine laughed coldly. "Oh, my… You're really not going to divorce me?""Come on—how long were we married?" Jacob quickly reasoned. "Getting divorced at our age? People would laugh at us."Elaine scoffed. "Now I'm curious… Matilda's quite old too, and she's a divorcee marrying again. Won't people laugh at her?""Technically, she's a widow—"Jacob blurted out, but soon turned pale, tensing up again not a second after he had just calmed down, asking gingerly, "W-Why would you suddenly mention her?'Elaine stopped pretending right then and snapped, "It's actually impressive that y

Horrified, Jacob promptly grasped the steering wheel and brought the Cullinan back under control while not hesitating to snap, "Are you crazy?! We're on the highway—that could have killed the both of us!"However, Elaine ignored him and seized the moment to open the armrest box, pulling out the large white envelope.As she opened it, she muttered, "So, it really was a wedding invitation… You really are a terrible friend, Jacob Wilson, hiding a wedding invitation like this! What's the point? Just look at that nervous face of yours—would I suspect you of having an affair with the bride-to-be?"She flipped open the card and was experienced enough to check the names first while disregarding the usual preamble. She wouldn't care about the venue or the time either, focusing solely on the professor who had somehow made Jacob very nervous.That was how Elaine found the names in less than a second: Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall.Matilda?!The name could well be knives stabbing Elaine in th

Jacob's brain blanked out, leaving only a dull hum as soon as Walker mentioned 'Professor Hall'.Already feeling nervous in the first place, he quickly said, "Okay, okay—I got it. Anyway, I'm hanging up if there's nothing else!"With that, he promptly pressed the button to hang up.Nonetheless, Elaine was soon asking in curiosity, "Who's Professor Hall?"If Jacob had any semblance of composure, he would have said 'a colleague at Senior University' as if it was perfectly natural, and the matter would have been forgotten.But the reality was that he didn't—in fact, he was the champion when it came to dropping the ball as a casual question from Elaine left him sweating all over his brow.Even as he slid nervous glances at her face, he stammered uncontrollably, "N-Nobody…"Elaine promptly noticed his strange reaction and frowned. "I'm talking about Professor Hall. What do you mean, nobody? Who are they? And what's this about an invitation? Inviting you for what?"Seeing that he was

Jacob had really had too much to drink and couldn't remember the later parts of what had happened last night—even how he had gotten home was a blur.Naturally, he also forgot that Walker had brought Matilda's wedding invitation, and therefore didn't hesitate to answer the in-car answer button.Over the phone, Walker was positively fawning as he asked, "Mr. Wilson? It's Walker. Why didn't you come in today? Had too much to drink last night?""Uh-huh," Jacob grunted, lethargic. "I did—my head still hurts now… Anyway, what's up? Trouble at the association?""No, of course not," Walker quickly said. "I was just worried you're still hungover, so I called to ask. If you need a driver or anything, you just need to ask!"Then, before Jacob could answer, he continued, "By the way, my wife is somewhat knowledgable in Oskian medicine, and she has recipes for brews that cure hangovers and nourish the liver. I'm sure you'll need the latter since you're always drinking at social events, so I as

Fortunately, Elaine and Jacob's bickering never escalated.Even though Elaine was winning, Jacob found it tolerable.After Jacob finished his lunch and cleaned up, he never looked up as he said, "Charlie sent a text, saying Claire's flight would touch down earlier at three. We will leave at two."Elaine grumbled. "Why leave so early? She's coming back from abroad, and there'd be checkpoints she has to clear—she'd be lucky if she could leave by half past three. I'm sleeping a few winks now, and we'll leave at half past two."As she left the dining room, she didn't even look back as she said, "Clean up for me too."Jacob had a million complaints but said nothing as he kept his head down, throwing Elaine's lunchbox in the trash can as well.With Elaine gone, he sat on the couch as her hangover slowly cleared while his mood soured with the lack of alcohol.In the end, the pleasure of being fawned over at the Diamond Room was but temporary—the pain of his beloved leaving with someone
