The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 234
All this felt like a coincidence but how could there be such a coincidence?Peter had a vague feeling that all of these were definitely related to Charlie. Therefore, he could only kneel in front of Charlie because he no longer cared about his own reputation.Claire did not know what the other party had told Peter over the phone. Therefore, she could only say in surprise, “Peter, isn’t your company doing well? What are you talking about? Besides that, even if you’re facing bankruptcy, what has it to do with Charlie?”Peter knelt on the ground as he said, “Claire, I’m so sorry for offending you a while ago! I admit my mistake and I’m begging for your forgiveness. My company called me earlier to tell me that one of my biggest customers had called to terminate their contract with us. Moreover, all the banks have just called to collect the money that I have borrowed from them. I am done for this time…please help put in a good word for me in front of Mr. Wade. Otherwise, there isn’t a wa

When Claire suddenly questioned her, Charlie’s mother-in-law, Elaine, lost her temper and said, “You’re still the granddaughter of the Wilson family no matter what happens! Besides, your grandmother has already apologized to me and admitted that she acted that way in a moment of confusion. She said that Harold was the one who instigated the discord and she has already punished him severely. What else are you dissatisfied about?”Claire replied angrily, “So what if they apologized to us? I understand my grandmother’s character and personality. Even if she apologized, it was definitely not a sincere apology! She’s only apologizing because she wants me to return to Wilson Group and fix the collaboration issues with Emgrand Group!”Elaine tried to persuade Claire at this time. “Don’t think so badly of your grandmother! We’re still family no matter what happens! How could you still hate her after so long?”“I am not related to anyone in the Wilson family!” Claire replied angrily before s

Later that night, Jasmine came all the way to pick Charlie up.Upon seeing Charlie, Jasmine arched her hands respectfully before him and greeted, “Mr. Wade, I’m really sorry to trouble you.Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Miss Moore, you don’t have to be so polite.”After that, Charlie noticed that Jasmine was wearing a diamond necklace around her neck. At this time, he asked out of curiosity, “This is the diamond necklace that you lost previously, isn’t it?”Jasmine nodded hurriedly before she replied, “Yes. This is the diamond necklace that my mother gave me before she passed away and it’s more important to me than my own life. Therefore, I’m really grateful towards you because if it wasn’t because of you, I would never have gotten it back, Mr. Wade.”Charlie smiled before he replied, “Jasmine, you have a connection with the diamond necklace. Even if I did not help you, it would’ve been transferred back to your hands after a short while.”Jasmine knew that Charlie was

Charlie was very unhappy at this time.After all, the only reason he had agreed to come here today was because he wanted to show some respect for Jasmine. Otherwise, the young master of the Wade family would not even have bothered to step into the Moore family mansion. Why would they even be worthy of his presence?Jasmine was also furious at this time. “Brother! How could you say such things? You might choose not to believe in someone’s ability but you shouldn’t disrespect them just because of that!”Reuben snorted coldly before he replied, “Respect? I only respect masters with real talents and skills. I don’t think swindlers deserve my respect at all!”After that, Reuben pointed at the old man standing next to him before he proudly introduced him, “This is Anthony Simmons, an extremely famous doctor in the South Region, and his granddaughter.”Charlie was slightly taken aback and he looked at the people standing before him.The old man and the young girl looked like a grandfath

”Alright then, since you know your own place.”At this time, a middle-aged man stepped forward and said, “Jasmine! Reuben! It looks like your grandpa is not going to make it!”Anthony quickly asked, “’Where’s the old man? Please lead me to him so I can take a look at his condition.”“He’s in his room at the back of the house. Please follow me,” Reuben replied as he hurriedly walked ahead to lead Anthony and his granddaughter to his grandfather.Jasmine hurriedly beckoned for Charlie to follow behind them.Everyone quickly arrived at a very luxurious and vintage bedroom at the back of the saw and they could see a dying old man lying on a bed on a bed frame made out of yellow rosewood.The old man looked very haggard and his brows were tightly knitted together, as though he was enduring a great deal of pain.Anthony quickly said, “The old man is in a very critical condition. Please allow my granddaughter and I to begin treatment immediately.”Reuben hurriedly replied, “Dr. Simmon

”Thank you for your hard work, doctor,” the middle-aged man said immediately. After that, Reuben hurriedly invited Anthony and his granddaughter to sit and have a cup of tea.After a short while, the young girl took the needles out before she took the tea cup in her hand and finished the cup of tea at one go.Even though the young girl had only performed an acupuncture for the old man, the color on his face had already returned and his breathing was more even at this time.Everyone in the Moore family was extremely happy.The young girl was also very content at this time. After drinking the cup of tea, the young girl stared at Charlie with a contemptuous expression on her face, as though telling him, “Look! I’ve already cured the old man.”Charlie did not say anything and he had a very straight expression on his face.In fact, if her spiritual energy was very well-mastered, she would not be as tired as she would not need to put much effort into administering her skills at all.H

Xyla was surprised and dumbfounded when she saw that Charlie was using the same technique that she had used earlier!She hastily replied, “How can he be so shameless? He’s using the same technique that I was using earlier! Did he copy and steal my technique by watching me earlier?”Anthony had a very calm expression on his face at this time. He only spoke up a few seconds later. “Look clearly again. Pay close attention to his gestures and movement.”The young girl looked at Charlie for a little longer and she muttered in shock, “He…what is he…”Xyla immediately recognized that the acupuncture technique Charlie was using was indeed the same Heavenly Thousand Needles acupuncture technique that had been passed down from generation to generation in the Simmons family. Even though his moves looked almost the same as her acupuncture method earlier, after taking a closer look, Xyla could tell that there were some differences in their techniques.This…Was this an upgraded version of the
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 241
Xyla felt very aggrieved and she was very unconvinced at this time. Therefore, she gritted her teeth before she said, “I want to compete with him and if he’s really capable, I’ll definitely apologize to him then.”“How long are you going to keep up this attitude of yours?” Anthony yelled in anger as he stared at his granddaughter.The middle-aged man from the Moore family was also stunned at this time. No one would have expected Charlie to have better strength and skills compared to the famous Dr. Simmons.Reuben was also very confused at this time. What was Dr. Simmons saying? Did he mean that this young man actually had some skills?How could this be possible?Could they really rely on him?Was Anthony really convinced by Charlie’s skills?At this time, Charlie glanced at Xyla and he could tell that she was really unhappy. Her face was flushed red with anger and she had a very dissatisfied expression on her face. Charlie found that hilarious and hence, he asked, “How would you

With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j

Jacob zipped toward Raymond, his attitude immediately subservient, "I'm sure you've seen what Zachary Evans posted on his Twitter page, and to be honest, it's so terrible that my position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been affected too. I mean, you've made a lot of money, right?"Hell, even if you donated ten million, you'd still have another ten million and 970 thousand in net profits. So, all I'd like to ask is for you to post something to disclaim Zachary's post.Jacob's words left Raymond in thought.For Jacob, just being suspected of fraud would definitely be terrible. In fact, his position in the Calligraphy and Painting Association would definitely be threatened—if not dismissed altogether—if he wasn't cleared of suspicion.Since Jacob was Charlie Wade's father-in-law, Raymond had reason not to drive Jacob over the brink.But that also begged another question—it must be under Charlie's intention for Zachary to post his confession, and that meant Charlie in

Raymond couldn't help chuckling just as Jacob finished—he had honestly never heard of anyone who demanded a refund after donating to charity, but he was certainly seeing one now.Still, the receptionist was clearly experienced and slowly explained, "Sir, it's a legal clause of the country that all donations for philanthropy purposes can not be refunded under most circumstances—""It truly was a mistake," Jacob quickly said, cutting the receptionist off. "I was going to donate thirty thousand but pressed an extra zero by mistake. Please discuss this with your management—you just have to refund 27 thousand, see?""Sorry, sir," the receptionist apologized. "But it's a strict rule that we ourselves do not get to access the funds that have been donated into our accounts. Every donation will be screened extensively, and if you consider that there was a major oversight on your part, you may seek legal counsel to appeal for a refund. If the courts back your appeal, our organization will the

Nonetheless, Jacob darted into Treasure Measure and plucked off his mask, asking nervously, "Excuse me, Mr. Cole? It's me… Jacob Wilson…"Raymond looked up, pausing for a moment before acting as if he was actually curious, "Mr. Wilson! What brings you here? Don't tell me—you want that bronze sculpture back too?""No, no, no…" Jacob quickly shook his head. "I would never… I returned all the way from Dubai to apologize!""Apologize?" Raymond smiled faintly, and he did not play dumb this time as he asked bluntly, "Did you come back because of Zachary Evan's post?"Knowing he couldn't deny it any longer, Jacob nodded, "Yeah…"Raymond nodded and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. I was the one who benefited in the end."Jacob wasn't quite keeping up—thinking that Raymond was just trying to be nice by telling him he didn't have to apologize, he quickly pulled out his phone.Tapping on it and bringing up his transaction records, he handed it to Raymond reverently, "Mr. Cole, I understan

The cabbie chuckled. "You're a local yet you're heading to Antique Street right away as soon as you land instead of going home? And you're still saying you're not trying to pick up a killer bargain deal?"Come on, man—it's not just you, I want that too. We cabbies work ourselves to death only for ten thousand per month at best while our friend over there made twenty million in one night. I could keep driving cabs for the rest of my life and still not make that much money."Jacob knew that the cabbie must be talking about Raymond and became even more miserable then, grumbling unhappily, "I'm going to Antique Street for business—I'm not trying to pick up some missed bargain.""No? Then you didn't hear what happened yesterday?"The cabbie was immediately curious, and without waiting for Jacob's answer, he exclaimed happily, "Look, man—it was so ridiculous not even Hollywood would put it in their script. There were these fools who were trying to sell an antique trader a replica, but th

It was nighttime in Dubai as Jacob dragged his weary body from the hotel back to the airport.As he was flying economy this time, he was left sitting at the hard bench near the boarding terminal, waiting for it to open.While he waited, his heart was torn as he tapped into the website of the Aurous Hill Charity Fund, found their donation account, and wired the entire 300 thousand he had made over to them.He had picked the Aurous Hill Charity Fund because the circles of antique collectors in Aurous Hill were all discussing how Raymond had donated half of the 20 million he had made to that same charity fund.After Raymond skyrocketed to prominence in Antique Street and became a star, it could not be denied that people admired his profound ability.However, there were also people who envied his skill in turning the tables just as there were those who were jealous he had made twenty million in a single night.Still, Raymond moved fast—soon after word spread that he had made twenty m

Elaine quickly asked, "Well, what if you can't get it done?"Jacob was apprehensive even as he sighed. "If they really pressed the issue, guess I can't even stay at the Calligraphy and Painting Association now… We will see. If things get bad, I'll just resign. I won't ask for much right now, just as long as I don't have to go to jail."Elaine nodded. "Then you should try to reason things out with Raymond Cole or ask for Charlie's help if push comes to shove. Being humiliated is still better than prison.""Okay!"-It was nighttime at Aurous Hill by the time Elaine and Jacob arrived at their hotel.Charlie and Claire had just had dinner, and Claire pulled out her phone, saying, "I just checked my flight app, and it says my parents should have landed two hours ago. They are probably at the hotel, so I'll check in on them with a video call."She had yet to open her WhatsApp when Elaine called her on a video call.Jacob was planning to check in with Claire and Charlie to put their

Hearing what Jacob had said, Elaine became anxious and pressed him as he hung up, "What's going on? You're leaving? But we just got here! My shoes have just caught Dubai dirt, so why are we leaving so soon—"However, Jacob was wiping the sweat off his brow as he mumbled quietly, "Well, at this point, I have to leave or I won't be vice president anymore."Elaine immediately fumed. "We've been married for half our lives, and this is supposed to be our honeymoon, yet we're just leaving? I've posted about this on social media too—there are plenty of people who're waiting for more posts on our trip!"And don't forget—we spent a lot on our flight tickets and our hotels! The hotel bookings can't be refunded either!"Jacob scowled dolefully. "Well, what can we do? Why don't you stay? I'll go home and get this sorted out first….""Well, how long would that take?" Elaine asked."How should I know?" Jacob sighed, uneasy and annoyed. "Don Albert is saying I have to go back and donate the 300
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6535
"But I spent 98 thousand on that bronze sculpture!" Jacob exclaimed in agitation before he knew it. "I made 300 thousand from it, and that means my profit was 200 thousand at best, but I'm supposed to return that to him as well?! That means I'd have lost my own capital too!""I can't help you if you can't bear to part with that money, Mr. Wilson," Don Albert said quietly. "In that case, you'll just have to handle it yourself.""Wait, wait, wait!" Jacob immediately became antsy and cried out right then, "Please, Don Albert! I'll return the money! I'll return it, alright?! The entirety of my profits—202 thousand, okay? At least let me keep the money I spent, okay?""By that reasoning, Mr. Wilson, when a phone scammer is told by the cops to return the money they've made from defrauding, should he be allowed to keep the money he spent on telco charges? ""Oh, I…" Jacob was left stumped and could not come up with an answer.Don Albert then pressed on, "Mr. Wilson, I've offered a prom
