Mason’s words invigorated Carvalho! He had studied the fundamental principles of The Eight Diagrams, Feng Shui and metaphysics all his life, and seemed to be at the top of his game. But in fact, in the metaphysics lineage, he had just crossed the entry-level at most. True metaphysics was much more than just The Eight Diagrams and Feng Shui, but a large school of thought that combined the wisdom of the ancestors of Oskia's heritage and all in one. In this, many profound metaphysics had been lost, and almost no one knew about it anymore. In his life, despite having a lot of accomplishments in Feng Shui, there were several other masters which were of a higher level than him. Among them, the one who was way above him in terms of standard was Chandler Lennard, who was ten years older than him. Chandler could be considered as one of the most accomplished masters in the field of Feng Shui and metaphysics among the Oskian Americans.There were two other masters of highe
This could be his chance in Aurous Hill! As soon as he thought of this, he said to Lord Schulz, "Cadfan, your second son, eldest daughter-in-law, and eldest granddaughter all disappeared in Aurous Hill. Mr. Webb's son was also hypnotized by a master in Aurous Hill. In my opinion, there could be undiscovered talents in Aurous Hill. In that case, I will personally go there to see if I can find a clue.” When Lord Schulz heard this, he immediately became excited. What he was most worried about now was that he couldn't get a clear picture of the situation in Aurous Hill at all. Since Carvalho was willing to go, he was of course eager to do so. So, he said excitedly, "Uncle Mason, since you are willing to go to Aurous Hill, it couldn't be better over there. If there's anything I need to prepare in advance, you can just ask!" Carvalho waved his hand, "You don't have to prepare anything specifically for us. The more you prepare, the more likely it is that someone w
“Charlie?” Jasmine heard Nanako's question and then saw her big eyes filled with expectation. Her heart couldn't help but feel some emotion. ‘It seems that this little girl’s feelings for Charlie are truly buried deep in her bones, but she lives in Japan most of the time, so I really don't know what she will do in the future.’ Immediately after, she thought of herself and couldn't help but secretly mock herself. ‘Just thinking about her, how am I not the same? Although Charlie and I both live in the same city, he is, after all, a married man, It is not so easy to meet with him.’ Thinking of this, she sighed and said to Nanako, "I truly haven't seen Charlie these days. The last time I saw him was the time I went to Aurora's house for a dinner gathering."Nanako nodded somewhat disappointedly and sighed, "Well, I don't know if I would have the chance to meet Charlie-kun more frequently this time..." Jasmine asked in surprise, "You didn't tell him that you came this time?"
Nevertheless, Jasmine didn't explicitly say it over the phone, so Charlie couldn't directly show that he already knew the exact situation. He pretended to be curious and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to invite me to dinner?"Jasmine said, "Grandpa said he hasn't had the chance to invite you over recently, so he wanted me to ask if you had time to come over for dinner tonight."Charlie didn't expect that Jasmine's words would be that Lord Moore wanted to invite him to dinner. She never mentioned Nanako, so Charlie guessed that it should be Nanako who wanted to give him a surprise.When he thought of that beautiful and generous but also gentle and quiet Yamato Nadeshiko, Charlie’s yearning for her would inevitably surge in his heart. The scene of him with her in Kyoto’s snowy night stroll again in his mind.After a moment of contemplation, Charlie pretended to know nothing and said to Jasmine, "Since the old man has invited me, I naturally can't refuse, so please tell him that I w
After hearing the words of his father-in-law, Charlie was dumbfounded. ‘When was I supposed to have a meal with my father-in-law?’ Just as he was wondering, Jacob kept winking at him, and at the same time, he urged, “Oh, Charlie, why are you still wearing an apron? Go back into the house and change your clothes, we are going to be late!” At this moment, Elaine asked, “Jacob, you do nothing at the Calligraphy and Painting Association all the time, so why do you still bring your son-in-law along? Since when does he have the time to socialize with you?” Jacob curled his lips and said, “What do you even know? Charlie knows Albert, and Albert is very famous in Aurous Hill. Mr. Bay from our association would definitely give face to Albert. It just so happens that the top management of our Association is about to change. This time around, I have to make Mr. Bay recommend me as the vice president. If that happens, I will be the second in command of the Calligraphy and Painting Associat
Charlie replied with a hum, went back into the room to change his clothes, and then came out to the garage. Jacob was already eagerly waiting in the passenger seat. Charlie got into the car and asked him, “Father, are you really going to have dinner with Mr. Bay tonight?” Jacob waved his hand. “No. I have no intentions to dine with him. That guy has done nothing but constantly shower me with flattery, trying hard to suck up to me. I’m bored of it and I am too lazy to entertain him.” Charlie then asked curiously, “Then, what are you up to now?” Jacob hurriedly said, “Just now, Aunt Matilda informed me via WhatsApp that she seemed to have a fever. Just so happens that Paul has gone on a business trip again, and your Aunt Matilda is home alone with no one taking care of her. I was just thinking of buying some medicine and food and sending it to her.” Charlie was taken aback, and he immediately asked, “Are you going to Aunt Matilda’s house?” “Yes.” Jacob nodded and blurted out,
As soon as Charlie had driven away, Jacob grew a little impatient and hastened his pace. In truth, ever since Matilda had told him on the phone that she was returning to Oskia, his heart had been filled with thoughts of Matilda. After Matilda had returned to Oskia, it had ignited the spark that had been buried in his heart for so many years. In the recent two to three decades, Jacob’s happiest moment was when Matilda had returned. When they were at his house and cooked together. That moment when Matilda and himself were embracing in the kitchen. However, Matilda was a very sensible person. She knew that Jacob and Elaine were yet to divorce, therefore, she had always kept a strong sense of rationality and was unwilling to make any substantial progress with Jacob. Jacob often found himself distressed over this, but he had never had a chance to find a breakthrough for their relationship. Although Jacob had been very useless all his life, he was, at the very least, a normal man
Matilda replied, “I just measured it. It was thirty-nine point two degrees Celsius. I already ate the fever medicine, but it seems like it hasn’t taken effect yet.” Once Jacob heard the temperature, he felt as though his heart was being torn out. He proactively bent down and pressed his forehead against Matilda’s forehead. After feeling it for a moment, he blurted out, “Your forehead is indeed terribly hot. Why don’t you go sit down on the sofa first, and I’ll get you a wet towel.” Matilda said in embarrassment, “I’m so sorry to trouble you, Jacob…” Jacob said solemnly, “Why are you being so polite with me? Do you remember the time during university, when I was in my dormitory and had a fever which made me unable to attend class? You took the initiative to skip class and went over the wall to the boys’ dormitory and took care of me for the entire day.” When Matilda heard this, her expression immediately became extremely shy. The past that Jacob had mentioned, naturally, she r
