Chapter 258

Author: Lord Leaf
“Okay, I’ll drive.”

The couple drove to Antique Street together.

Since it was the weekend, there were many people at Antique Street.

Zachary had already opened his stall for a long time on Antique Street. Therefore, he has his own permanent booth on the street. Charlie could find him as soon as he entered the Antique Street.

At this time, Zachary was holding a fake jade pendant in his hand as he was bragging to a foreign couple. “I am telling you that this jade pendant was worn by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty before he passed it to his grandson and the generation after that. After many twists and turns, the jade pendant finally fell in my hands…”

“Is it really that valuable?” the middle-aged man asked in surprise. “How much does this jade pendant cost?”

Zachary grinned before he replied, “Since we’re fated to meet today, I’ll sell this jade pendant to you for just one hundred and eighty thousand dollars. After leaving Antique Street, you can actually sell this jade pendant to

    Charlie nodded in satisfaction when he saw how obedient Zachary was.In fact, Zachary was a very clever man and he would definitely be useful to Charlie in the future since he is indeed very capable and full of ideas.After that, Charlie told him, “Zachary, I’ll definitely treat you well if I’m satisfied with your behaviour.”Zachary hurriedly clasped his fists together before he said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. I’ll definitely make sure you’re satisfied!”Charlie could not help but smile at Zachary’s flattery. “Do you know that I really feel like hitting you because of how shameless you look right now?”Zachary laughed before he said, “Mr. Wade, I know how ugly my face is but you should also know that money is never ugly!”After that, Zachary took out a black box from under the seat before he handed it over to Charlie. “Mr. Wade, this is the three hundred thousand dollars in cash that I’m supposed to give your father-in-law. Please check if the amount is correct.”Charlie waved hi

    Claire pushed the car open before she hurried out of the car with an umbrella in hand.Charlie rushed after Claire as soon as he saw her getting out of the car.“What happened, Loreen?”Claire asked as soon as she rushed over to Loreen.“Claire? What are you doing here?” Loreen asked as soon as she saw Claire. She was trembling because she was drenched from the heavy rain. She looked extremely surprised and embarrassed, as though she did not want her best friend to see her in such an awkward manner.Claire held the umbrella over Loreen’s head and she quickly replied, “I happened to pass by this road with Charlie when I saw you by the side of the road. What happened to you?”Loreen quickly replied with an annoyed expression on her face, “Let’s not talk about it anymore! My company sent me out on an errand today and they gave me a car to do so. That’s the reason why I drove out to meet the customer in this care today. However, even before I could meet up with the customer, I real

    Among the two people who were walking towards them, the one standing in front was dressed in white.He was wearing a white silk cloth and his clothes fluttered in the air. What was even more surprising was the fact that there was not even a drop of rain on him at this time.The other man was dressed in black and he had a very strong and sturdy body.Moreover, he could see that the two men had formed a barrier around their body, as if isolating the rainwater from themselves.Charlie glanced at the two men and he realized that they could both fight very well.At this time, Zachary, who was sitting in the car, looked out the car window and his face turned pale immediately, as though he had just seen a ghost! At this time, he opened the car door before he tried to run away.Charlie had very quick eyes and he quickly grabbed hold of Zachary’s collar before he said, “Why are you running away?”“The Butcher Brothers…they’re the Butcher Brothers!” Zachary yelled in panic as he struggled

    Claire was really unwilling and she did not want to leave Charlie behind. “No, I don’t want to! I want to stay with you!”At this time, Charlie replied in a cold manner, “Go now! If you stay behind with me, you’ll only distract me and it won’t be good if all of us get hurt then!”Claire nodded before she led Loreen to their car.Loreen staggered as Claire pulled her away and at this time, a white stone slipped out of her pocket and fell to the ground.Charlie sneered as he stared at the Butcher Brothers. “You’re both nothing but two ants to me and you’re telling me that you’re going to get rid of me? I guess you must both be really tired of living!”The study man smirked before he said, “Why don’t we see who’s the ant here?”After that, the sturdy man rushed over to Charlie as he tried to punch him in the face. His fist was so strong and it felt as though he would smash Charlie’s face directly.However, Charlie saw the punch coming at him and he said lightly, “I guess you really

    In the next second, everything was a blur. The figure of the man dressed in white was now a phantom as he flew towards Charlie.As soon as the man dressed in white punched the air, a wave of air set off around him as he forced the rain around him to disperse backwards involuntarily.Whenever the rain drops touched his fist, the rain would immediately turn into steam.“He was prepared to kill!”Zachary was horrified and he wanted to crawl and hide under the car.At this time, Loreen, who had just been pulled into the car by Claire, was also so frightened that she was holding her breath. She was extremely nervous and anxious at this time because she was afraid that her savior would die here today because of her.Even though Claire was also feeling very nervous, she felt that Charlie would definitely be able to defeat the two men.Charlie simply glared at the man dressed in white with a cold expression on his face.He was not afraid of the deadly glare in the man’s eyes at all. As

    Even though it looked like a simple slap, when the slap hit him, all the reiki that Charlie had been accumulating rushed and penetrated into his head, rushing along his body along the meridian as it burst all the important veins in his body.Since his important veins had already burst, he also lost all of his skills!The man dressed in white was horrified as he yelled out in pain.How could anyone have such strong spiritual energy and reiki? He really could not fathom who Charlie was.How was it possible for anyone in Aurous Hill to have such incredible skills?Moreover, he felt as though Charlie’s skills were incomparable.Where did this guy come from?He had come here with his brother to kill, why did it seem like they were the ones getting killed instead?At this time, Charlie punched the man in his abdomen and with just one punch, the man in white felt as though he had become a completely useless person. He could not even move his hands and feet at this time and it felt as

    At this time, Loreen felt as though she had just been struck by lightning!She stared at Charlie and she felt as though she had just been placed in a really unexpected situation.Charlie did not know that Loreen had recognized that he was her savior.Charlie simply sneered after getting rid of the Butcher Brothers.The Butcher Brothers? Even though their names sounded extremely cool, they were nothing more than a pair of wild dogs!Zachary had a terrified expression in his eyes.The Butcher Brothers had already gone on a rampage and killed countless people for so many years. Moreover, they had never lost any battles in their lives.Everyone in the southern region was afraid of them.Who would have expected the Butcher Brothers to actually die in Charlie’s hands today? Zachary felt that this was really unbelievable.Was Mr. Wade really that impressive?At this time, Charlie glanced at the two bodies that had already turned cold on the ground before he turned around and looked

    So, did this mean that she would not be letting her best friend down even if she was in love with Charlie?Perhaps her best friend would even be relieved if she got together with Charlie in the end!As she thought about this, Loreen hurriedly said to Charlie, “Then let me thank you for the trouble in advance, Charlie!”Charlie smiled at Loreen before he replied, “No, it’s no trouble at all.”His smile made Loreen’s heart beat even quicker at this time.Even though reason told her there was no hope for her since Charlie was her best friend’s husband, she could not help but to have all sorts of weird thoughts running through her head due to the emotional impulse she was feeling.Charlie did not know of what was going through Loreen’s mind at this time. Therefore, he gave Loreen his phone number without any hesitation.At this time, Zachary stepped forward before he said in a flattering tone, “Mr. Wade, you’re really incredible! Even someone as frightening as the Butcher Brothers c

    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

    "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
