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

As soon as Sheldon heard this, he subconsciously said, “Dad, Aurous Hill is a very mysterious and unpredictable place! My younger brother went missing there. If Jaime were to go to Aurous Hill in a high-profile manner, I am afraid…”Cadfan waved his hand and said, “You don’t have to be afraid! My guesses are generally not wrong! What we have to focus on right now is to find a way to lure that man out of his hiding place.”Sheldon could not help but have a very mixed and entangled expression on his face.Sophie’s whereabouts were still unknown, and no one knew whether she was already dead or still alive. Therefore, Sheldon could not help but feel extremely reluctant to let Jaime take the risk to head to Aurous Hill at this time.The reason why Steven had gotten kidnapped was because he had kept up such a high-profile as soon as he arrived in Aurous Hill.If Jaime were to also put on a high-profile as he headed to Aurous Hill, then there was an 80% probability of Jaime encountering

Jaime had already had a crush on Quinn for many years, but he had only told his sister, Sophie, about this matter.The reason why he had never dared to bring this matter up was because he knew that the Schulz family would never allow him to be together with Quinn.Lord Schulz had always been a very condescending person, and he had never once looked up to any other families in Oskia.Moreover, Lord Schulz had always been very eager to achieve a major breakthrough in the overseas markets.Therefore, he had especially hoped that as the eldest grandson of the Schulz family, Jaime would marry the daughter of a top and influential European or American family, or even a European royal princess.In that case, the Schulz family would be able to exchange resources with them.Otherwise, if they were to join hands with a family in this country who had a weaker overall strength compared to the Schulz family, it would be clear that the Schulz family was being taken advantage of.This was the

He had initially thought that it would be impossible for his grandfather to allow him to pursue Quinn. However, Jaime would never have expected to gain his grandfather’s full support instead.This instantly increased his confidence to pursue Quinn countless times.So, Jaime immediately said, “Grandpa, in that case, I will head to Aurous Hill now under the pretext of attending the upcoming concert to see if I can lure the mastermind out!”Cadfan nodded in satisfaction before he smiled and said, “I’ve already asked Arrington to invite the head of the top family in Sudbury, Donald from the Webb family, to come here for dinner today. I believe that he should be here in a while. You do not need to leave in such a hurry. It is not too late for you to set off after having dinner.“Okay!”***At this moment, at Shangri-La hotel in Aurous Hill.Sophie was already feeling very anxious and impatient after getting locked up in the room for the entire day.At six o’clock in the evening, Isa

Isaac’s words made Charlie hesitate slightly.He had not decided whether he wanted to meet with Sophie and Helen yet.The main reason was simply because he did not know what kind of mentality he should have when facing his enemy’s daughter or a woman who had already been in love with his father for so many years.However, Charlie knew it very well in his heart.He knew that since things had already reached this point, he would have to meet with the pair of mother and daughter sooner or later.Still, he had not decided whether or not it was the right time to meet them now.When Isaac saw that Charlie was still hesitating, he hurriedly persuaded him, “Young Master, to be honest, since you will have to meet the both of them sooner or later, wouldn’t it be better for you to meet them sooner rather than later?”As he spoke, Isaac said again, “Look. Miss Schulz’s current status is equivalent to being kept under house arrest at this time. If you refuse to meet her now, I am afraid that

So, Donald and Sean followed Arrington to the dining hall inside the manor.At this time, Cadfan, Sheldon, and Jaime, who represented the three generations of the Schulz family, were seated at the dining table.When Cadfan saw Donald and Sean walking into the dining hall, he took the initiative to stand up and greet Donald with a smile on his face. “Mr. Webb, I have already heard of your great name for a very long time! I finally get to meet you today!”Donald hurriedly replied in a flattered manner, “Lord Schulz, you are being too polite. Compared to you, I am nothing more than a small businessman engaging in some small businesses. I am still way too inferior as compared to you…”Cadfan waved his hand before he smiled and said, “How could that be, Mr. Webb? The Webb family is the top and most influential family in the whole of Sudbury. So, why are you belittling yourself?”After he had spoken, Cadfan hurriedly said again, “Come, Mr. Webb! Let me introduce you to my family. This i

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!
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade
