At this time, Sean, who had not dared to speak at all as he was standing by Donald’s side, could not help but feel very excited.Charlie smiled as he said, “Of course, I will be able to cure them. However, I have to tell you in advance that even if you help me to do things well this time, I can only help you cure one of your sons.”As soon as Charlie said these words, Donald had a slightly disappointed expression on his face. He immediately thought to himself, ‘He can only cure one of my sons?! Charlie is obviously making it very clear that he wants to use my sons as leverage to make sure that he has me under control!’However, no matter what it was, it would be better for him to be able to cure one of his sons rather than none at all.He truly felt very sorry for his youngest son. Therefore, if he had the opportunity to cure his youngest son’s illness, he would be able to make up for one of his greatest regrets.So, Donald immediately agreed to Charlie’s request as he said, “Mast
Sean’s words immediately touched Donald’s heart.As a father, he naturally felt that his youngest son, Kian, was even more pitiful.However, as the head of the family, he realized that if he had the opportunity to cure any one of the two brothers, choosing to cure his eldest son, Sean, would certainly be a much more cost-effective decision.‘As Sean has said, Kian’s incident has already left a very deep impression on the people in the whole country before this. It could be said that he has already left an unforgettable impression on everyone.’‘So, even if I have the opportunity to cure Kian and return him to his normal state, as long as he appears in front of the public’s field of vision, it will certainly awaken everyone’s unforgettable memory of him…’‘After all, even if he was completely healed, he cannot possibly go around telling and explaining to others that he would not need to eat that kind of thing anymore in the future…’As soon as he understood this fact, Donald decid
The butler replied truthfully, “Lord Schulz, the influence of the video is still expanding greatly. It has already gradually spread overseas from within the country. The overall public opinion on this matter is extremely detrimental to the Schulz family.”“Also, Jefferson from the Dunn family has already tried calling you at least ten times. I did not dare to answer his call at all…”“Several leaders in Eastcliff have also called us to question us about this matter. They are all very angry about this matter, and they want the Schulz family to give them a clear explanation and solution to this matter. I gave them the excuse that this matter will have to be temporarily delayed because you are currently ill. However, they want you to give them a clear statement about this issue within twenty-four hours…”Cadfan could not help but sigh as he ground his teeth and said, “Since the short video platform belongs to the Wade family, it is definitely impossible for us to engage in any public r
To win Donald over, Cadfan asked his butler to bring some gifts with him when he went to visit the Webb family.The Schulz family’s chief butler had the same qualifications and status as Stephen, and he might even be more powerful in comparison. Besides, the chief butler not only represented himself, but he also represented the head of the Schulz family, Cadfan. Therefore, the fact that Cadfan was asking the chief butler to visit Donald in person was already giving the Webb family a lot of face.Cadfan attached great importance to winning the Webb family over. That was the reason why he had personally sent the chief butler to visit them on his behalf.Cadfan also knew very well that he was already a person that was hated by everyone right now. Therefore, it would be impossible for him to return to Eastcliff within this short period of time.Therefore, he would have to be prepared to stay in Sudbury for a long time.This incident gave him the feeling of similarity to the period of
Aside from acting as a protection amulet, the will could also act as family insurance.An ancient king would often be worried that his heir would be a fatuous and self-indulgent ruler that would throw away all of the country’s blessings, without leaving any blessings behind for the future generations.As for the modern wealthy men, they would also be afraid that their heirs would end up becoming prodigal sons and ultimately ruin the family inheritance.Therefore, almost every wealthy man would set up a trust fund. That way, if he did not have any worthy descendants to succeed him and inherit the family, the wealthy man would simply hand all of the family’s assets and properties over to the trust fund so that he could ensure that the descendants of their family would be able to live in comfort forever. That way, they would always have money to spend and they would never lose their property.Furthermore, the rule of relying on the number of descendants to gain even more living expens
Sheldon’s private jet began descending over the suburbs of Sudbury at four o’clock in the afternoon.When he saw that he was about to land at the Sudbury Airport, Sheldon hurriedly used his cell phone to call his son, Jaime.At this time, Jaime had already driven all the way to Sudbury Airport. He parked his car in the parking lot, and he stayed inside the car as he waited for news from his father.When he saw the phone call from his father, Jaime hurriedly answered the call before he asked, “Dad, where are you?”Sheldon said, “I should be landing in another twenty minutes or so. Are you there yet?”“I am already here.” Jaime said, “Tell me after you leave customs. I will come and pick you up.”“Okay!” Sheldon told him, “Don’t forget to wear sunglasses and a mask. The Schulz family is in a very sensitive and critical situation right now. We cannot allow anyone to find out that we are here in Sudbury.”“I know, Dad.”After hanging up the phone, Jaime quickly put on his mask and
Sheldon said seriously, “The incident that your mother and Sophie have encountered this time is an excellent opportunity for us to do so. Anyone with discerning eyes can see that there is someone who is targeting and trying to attack our family. Moreover, the opponent is extremely capable, and it seems as though the other party has already been planning this for a very long time. If we can assist and help your grandfather find the mastermind behind the scenes and eliminate all the threats to the Schulz family, your grandfather will certainly be filled with admiration for us!”Immediately afterward, Sheldon added, “You have to know that your grandfather has already been nailed to the pillar of shame now, and it will be impossible for him to clear his name until the day he dies!”“So, we have to make sure that he is satisfied with us during the time before his death, and we have to be obedient and respectful toward him without challenging his authority and majesty as the head of the fa
Sheldon’s words touched Cadfan’s heart immediately.Although Cadfan had taken the initiative to apologize to Sheldon and Jaime about Helen and Sophie’s affairs as soon as they arrived, deep down in his heart, he did not want Sheldon and Jaime to be troubled by this issue.So, when Sheldon took the initiative to change the topic just now, he had inevitably catered to Cadfan’s innermost thoughts.So, Cadfan hurriedly said, “Sheldon, you are right. We have to be united and work together to find out who is the mastermind behind the scenes!”With that said, Cadfan asked Sheldon, “Sheldon, who could possibly be trying to go against us?”Sheldon subconsciously replied, “Dad, I have a feeling that this matter is related to the Wade family, but I do not have any evidence pointing directly at them to prove that they are indeed the mastermind behind this matter. I can only make some speculations that the Wade family has a part in this matter based on the short video platform. Furthermore, Au
With this thought in mind, Charlie silently decided to spend more time at the villa in the future, where he could focus on studying cultivation. Perhaps he might discover a breakthrough path based on his current foundation. However, the thought of Holly's family living in the villa next door posed a dilemma. If he went there every day to practice in seclusion, he would inevitably have to pass by Holly's house. Out of courtesy, it would be impossible not to greet them. But once he started exchanging pleasantries, his efficiency would naturally decrease. Moreover, it would eventually cause a misunderstanding if Nanako were to go there every day as well. Thus, Charlie felt an eagerness to find a new place for cultivation. After some thought, the lakeside mansion that Kathleen had purchased under the alias Kylie when she was in Aurous Hill came to mind. The Quinton family's villa, located in the Sonfo Valley far from the city, was nestled among mountains and waters, boasting exce
Nanako could also feel that the energy available for her to draw upon in her Sea of Consciousness had suddenly surged. Her sensory abilities, which had already improved significantly after achieving enlightenment, instantly leaped to an even higher level. The Reiki within her body became exceptionally abundant. With just a slight movement of her divine sense, the Reiki immediately dispersed from within her, making the entire office feel as if it was under her bird's-eye view, completely under her control. Moreover, this sense of control continued to extend outward. In just a short moment, eight nearby rooms also fell within her perception range. Charlie could sense the Reiki Nanako was releasing. Observing her closely, he noticed that her body was already brimming with Reiki, suggesting that it was no longer possible for her to continue taking the elixir. After a while, Nanako retracted the Reiki she had been using for perception and looked up at Charlie, saying, "Previously I co
Although Nanako had just attained enlightenment, she had already realized a critical problem: the Reiki available to her was very little, and there was almost no external channel for obtaining Reiki. For cultivators today, getting Reiki was the most difficult thing. There was no Reiki in the world, so the only external channels to obtain Reiki were elixirs, spiritual stones, or formations. If someone had a complete cultivation method, he could generate Reiki in his body by practicing the method, but for people like Charlie and Nanako who lacked such methods, this self-sufficient path was not feasible. Therefore, the small amount of Reiki that was generated in Nanako's body when she attained enlightenment was basically used up after she tried to sense Reiki. Charlie was slightly better than Nanako. The spiritual stones he accidentally obtained in the early days provided him with a lot of Reiki. Later, he relied on Cultivating Pills to barely make up for the gap in Reiki. Altho
Nanako giggled gently, thinking that Charlie was exaggerating. "You're so funny, Charlie. Who could possibly fail to attain enlightenment for hundreds of years? Those who haven't probably wouldn't live that long anyway, right?" Charlie smiled ambiguously. The matter concerning Vera was, of course, something he couldn't share with anyone, including Nanako. However, it was indeed a fact that Vera, despite taking the Eternal Pill and living for so many years, still hadn't attained enlightenment. Moreover, back in the day, Fumiko had served Marcius faithfully for an entire lifetime. From the paintings, it was evident that Marcius was genuinely devoted to Fumiko at that time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have returned to fulfill his promise after obtaining his opportunities. Yet, despite receiving Marcius's wholehearted support, Fumiko still failed to achieve enlightenment. In contrast, Nanako had managed to attain enlightenment so effortlessly, merely through the guidance of a monk.
Caden didn't know what kind of gifts Charlie was planning to give everyone, but from his perspective, since each of the over 400 people would receive one, it was likely something that could be bought with money. Caden was as rich as a king and wasn't particularly interested in things that money could buy. However, since Charlie had mentioned it, he naturally wanted to show his support. He expressed his gratitude, saying, "Despite your busy schedule, you're still thinking of us. I'm truly honored, and on behalf of everyone, I thank you." Charlie chuckled. "You're welcome." Caden respectfully replied, "If there's nothing else, I'll go ahead and ask Miss Ito to come over." "Okay." Caden retreated and went back to the martial arts hall. He called Nanako over and said in a low voice, "Miss Ito, Mr. Wade is at the manager's office right now. He wants to see you." "What?" Nanako squealed in pleasant surprise. "Mr. Wade is here? Oh my, I'll go over now! Thank you, Master Howton."
After that, Charlie asked, "Has everything been going well here lately?" Caden clasped his hands respectfully and replied, "Everything has been going very well. With the follow-up mental techniques you provided from the Taoist Sect Hanbloom Method, everyone's foundations are very solid. This batch of students has made the fastest progress I've seen in all my years of teaching." Charlie remembered his disciple, Sonia, who had previously taken the entire Taoist Sect to Oskia on her own initiative, effectively becoming part of his sect. Since he didn't have time to manage them, he had left everything under Caden's supervision. Curious, he asked, "How are the Taoist Sect disciples doing in their training?" Caden responded, "These disciples' training progress has been much faster than when they were in the United States. Sonia is now like a workaholic, training all day, every day, and her progress is astonishing—beyond my expectations." He continued, unable to hide his admiration, "
"The Rothschild family members?" Hearing Albert's remarks, Charlie frowned slightly and said, "Oh! Are you talking about Edmund and his dad?" "Yes!" Albert nodded and laughed out loud. "That American bastard who poisoned Miss Young's father and caused his kidney failure. Didn't he and his dad always say that they were from the Rothschild family?" Charlie waved him off dismissively. "They're not part of the Rothschild family. Rothschilds wouldn't carry the surname 'Whittaker'." Pausing to think, he added, "The surname 'Whittaker' is likely of Jewish origin. They might actually be relatives of the Rothschild family by marriage." As he spoke, a realization dawned on him. "I think I've got it. Julien coming to Aurous Hill might very well be to look for this father-and-son duo. Harrison has just recovered and wants to remain the family head for a few more years—he's probably trying to strengthen ties with these branch families." Albert gasped, "If that's the case, that bastard i
Meanwhile, Charlie went down the mountain and arrived at the Champs Elys Resort. To avoid disturbing the students during their practice, Charlie informed Albert of his arrival by phone. Albert, being at the bottom of the martial arts students in terms of skill and treating it more as a casual interest, was asked to wait at the entrance of the resort. When Charlie arrived, Albert, dressed in his training outfit, was already waiting at the door. He quickly stepped up to the car, opened the door for Charlie, and respectfully greeted, "Mr. Wade, welcome." Charlie nodded and said, "Tomorrow, have The Heaven Springs temporarily closed to the public and prepare a table with excellent food and drinks. For any customers with existing reservations, make sure to provide them with appropriate compensation." Without hesitation, Albert agreed and asked, "Are you expecting some guests?" Charlie casually replied, "Not exactly guests—just someone coming from afar who's a bit of a fool."
Upon hearing that Charlie would host him, Julien was flattered and expressed his gratitude, saying, "I truly appreciate you taking time out of your busy schedule to meet with me!" Charlie smiled and replied, "We're good friends, no need for formalities. When do you expect to land in Aurous Hill?" Julien thought for a moment and respectfully responded, "I'll be flying in a few hours, with a flight time of about 15 hours. I expect to land in Aurous Hill around 10 a.m. local time tomorrow." Charlie said, "In that case, tomorrow at noon, I'll host a banquet for you at The Heaven Springs, the most famous restaurant in Aurous Hill. It's well-known, so your employees should be able to find it easily. You can just come over directly when you arrive." Although the Rothschild family didn't have personnel stationed in Aurous Hill, their Asian headquarters was located in Eastcliff with high-ranking officials as well as a large number of staff. Julien had already informed the administrative
