Charlie currently had more than sufficient funds on hand. Moreover, he also owned Apothecary Pharmaceutical which was constantly making money for him. So, it would not be difficult for him to start an ocean shipping business.Whether it was setting up a company, docking at a pier, or leasing a freighter, Charlie would not have any funding problems at all.However, the most critical issue was that if he were to start such a large new business, he would have to get someone who had sufficient ability and capability to take care of and oversee his business on his behalf.The first person that Charlie thought of was Doris.It was needless to say that Doris was indeed very outstanding and capable, and she was also a very trustworthy person.However, the only problem was that Doris would also have to manage Emgrand Group. If he were to ask her to take the lead for the ocean shipping business at the same time, Charlie was afraid that she would be completely overwhelmed with work.After t
“That’s right!” Cadfan ground his teeth and said, “Aurous Hill is originally within the Wade family’s sphere of influence, and it could even be considered as the Wade family’s territory. The fact that Ito Yahiko has suddenly decided to go to Aurous Hill is already very strange in itself. Besides that, he even chose to stay at the Wade family’s hotel. That is even more dangerous for us.”Sheldon hurriedly asked, “Dad, are you worried that the Ito family will choose to collaborate with the Wade family?”“Yes.” Cadfan replied earnestly, “Our ocean shipping business is currently suspended across the board. Therefore, the entire ocean shipping industry is also in turmoil. On one hand, it is because there is a halt in our ocean shipping business and so, that resulted in a huge gap in the demand for international shipping that cannot be met as well as the continued increase in freight cost. On the other hand, most of the cargo ships that we have rented will soon be released to the ship owne
By the time Charlie was done with the banquet and had left the Moore family villa, Sheldon had already set off for Aurous Hill.In order to ensure that he would be able to get in touch with Yahiko as soon as possible, he specially arranged for his staff to book a hotel room for him in Shangri-La under his subordinate’s identity.He knew very well that Shangri-La was the Wade family’s property, so he could not allow the Wade family to find out that he would be staying at Shangri-La. At the same time, he also could not allow the Wade family to find out that he was heading to Aurous Hill.According to his plan, after his subordinate had booked the room at Shangri-La, checked in, and received the room card, the subordinate would wait for Sheldon nearby Shangri-La so that Sheldon could skip the check-in process and enter the hotel room directly. Although the hotel clearly required guests to show their valid ID in order to make a booking, the real name system could only be implemented t
Charlie pulled the car over and stopped by the roadside. When Jacob saw him, he felt as though he had seen his savior, and his eyes were gleaming with hope.However, Jacob deliberately chose not to speak to Charlie immediately.On the other hand, when Matilda saw Charlie, she smiled slightly as she said, “Charlie is here!”When Charlie saw Matilda, who was wearing a tight-fitting sports outfit at this time, he secretly thought to himself, ‘This Aunt Hall is indeed the idol for most middle-aged and elderly men. How does her figure, appearance, and temperament look like that of a fifty years old woman?!’Most people would surely believe it if anyone were to say that she was just thirty years old.Charlie immediately nodded before he smiled at Matilda and said, “Hello, Aunt Hall.”After he was done speaking, Charlie deliberately asked, “Aunt Hall, I heard my dad say that you were sick. Why did you come out for a run? Furthermore, your complexion looks really good and it does not loo
The trio looked in the direction of the voice, and they saw a muscular middle-aged man who was wearing a pair of sports shorts and a t-shirt as he jogged all the way to them.Charlie could not help but look at the middle-aged man. The other party was about 1.8 meters tall, and he had a very well-proportioned body with muscles all over. He looked like he was only in his early forties.Moreover, the other party was only wearing so little clothes for a run on such a cold day. So, it was obvious that this person had excellent physical fitness.What was even rarer was the fact that this man was extremely handsome. He had very thick short hair, and he looked extremely stylish.As soon as Jacob saw this man, he immediately became very vigilant. After looking the man up and down, Jacob could not help but feel a little inferior.After all, Jacob was just an ordinary fifty-year-old middle-aged man as compared to this man. He did not usually exercise or train his body at all, and he had no s
As he spoke, Yolden said jokingly, “By the way, Mr. Wilson, you look like you should be about fifty years old, right?”“Yes. I am fifty years old.” Jacob replied as he nodded.Yolden smiled before he said, “In that case, you cannot refer to me as a young man anymore. I am a few years older than you. I am fifty-five years old this year.”“What?!” Jacob asked as he was dumbfounded. “You are fifty-five years old this year?!”“Yes.” Yolden smiled as he said, “I just celebrated my 55th birthday in January this year.”The expression on Jacob’s face suddenly became a little ugly.It was not out of anger, but it was mainly due to Jacob’s inferiority complex.Jacob had initially thought that Yolden should be around forty-five years old. However, he really would not have expected that this guy would actually be five years older than him!At this time, Yolden looked at Matilda before he asked her, “By the way, Matilda, since Mr. Wilson has to go first because he is in a rush, what about y
As he thought about the fact that he had never been to the United States before, Jacob could not help but hate Elaine even more in his heart.He sat in the co-driver seat as he cursed, “That b*tch, Elaine, is the one who ruined my whole life! If it weren’t because of her, I would have been a top student who graduated from a university in the United States! Perhaps I would have also been a professor working at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology or even a professor working at Harvard in the United States!”As he spoke, he continued complaining angrily, “What happened in the end? As soon as I graduated from a local university, I got married to Elaine! I cannot get rid of her at all even up to this day!”Charlie could not help but comfort Jacob as he said, “It’s okay, Dad. There are some things that you cannot simply consider most optimistically. Although you are not in a happy marriage now, at the very least, you are in very good health. If you think about it from another point
At that time, many famous people from Silicon Valley had accompanied him and his mother when they visited Stanford University. They were not well-known at the very beginning but now, all of them were internationally renowned.If it weren’t because of his parents’ accident back then, Charlie would have headed to the United States to study in a university there first. After finishing his MBA at Stanford University, Charlie would have chosen to stay back in Silicon Valley to start his own career there, or he could even return to Oskia to help his father in their family business, then.It was a pity that the car accident that had happened when Charlie was eight years old had completely changed his life trajectory. Charlie was not even given the opportunity to finish his undergraduate degree.Charlie could not help but feel a little sad and melancholic as he thought about this.When Jacob saw the melancholic expression on Charlie’s face, he could not help but ask, “Charlie, what’s wrong
