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

When they drove into the city, the terrifying storm gradually subsided as if nothing had happened earlier.Then, a spring breeze dispersed the stormy cloud and a rainbow hung in the sky like a painting. Everyone looked upwards, mesmerized in nature’s beauty.Charlie stopped the car at the entrance of the antiquity commodity market and dropped Zachary off here.As soon as Zachary got out of the car, he bowed at Charlie respectfully and said, “Thank you, Master Wade!”Charlie looked at him and said flatly, “Zach, don’t ever tell anyone about what happened today, do you understand?”“Yes, of course! Don’t worry, Master Wade,” Zachary said in a gracious and serious tone. His face was full of admiration as he regarded Charlie as a godlike figure.Charlie nodded and drove away. Zachary, on the other hand, stood on the same spot and watched him leave, not daring to move even when the car had disappeared from his sight.Charlie sent Loreen, who still remained in the car, directly to the

Looking at the condescending Jacob who was walking on the path of no return, Charlie shook his head dejected and returned to his room.Claire had already taken her shower and she put on lavender silk spaghetti pajamas.Her pajamas exposed her shoulders. Her skin was so soft and smooth like the silk pajamas and the pajamas barely covered her back and hugged her figure snugly. Charlie felt his throat going unusually dry tonight as he stared intensely at Claire.She was lying sideways on the bed. The thin and silky pajamas lay on the graceful curves of her body like artificial skin. The skirt covered her thighs and her long fair legs stretched out lazily on the bed.Claire blushed timidly as she noticed Charlie’s intense glare that she chided, “Stop looking at me like that, it’s not like you haven’t seen it before.”Charlie plastered a sheepish grin on his face. “Dear, you’re so beautiful that it’s never enough.”Claire rolled her eyes at his ridiculous remark but there was a spark

Claire went to her new office early the next morning.Meanwhile, Charlie rode his electric scooter to the wet market.As Claire was very busy with her office lately, he specially bought some nutritious ingredients in order to cook some nice dishes for her.After he finished shopping, Charlie walked out of the market and stumbled upon Loreen.“Charlie!” Loreen shouted his name, thrilled and overjoyed.Charlie was surprised. “Hey, Loreen, what a coincidence!”Loreen looked at Charlie and mumbled hesitantly, “Yes… erm, no… no, I… I…”Charlie tilted his head, confused. “Speak slowly. Have you encountered any problems recently?”Loreen’s face turned into a bright shade of red. Actually, she had waited for him outside Claire’s house early in the morning and had been following Charlie all the way.Loreen cleared her throat, mustered some courage, and said, “I… I’m actually here to thank you for saving me yesterday.”Charlie smiled. “It’s my pleasure, I saved you because you are Clai

It was no wonder he couldn’t find the pebble after that day, he had dropped it! Coincidentally, or rather, unfortunately, Loreen had picked it up…How could he explain it? Damn…Charlie bit his lips sheepishly and said in a casual tone, “What do you mean? It’s just some ordinary pebble.”Loreen looked Charlie in the eyes and said sternly, “Don’t lie to me! Zachary has already told me that this pebble is yours—it’s the rare, one and only peace and wealth pebble!”Charlie pursed his lips and looked away, silently cursing Zachary for spilling the beans!Since Loreen had grasped the conclusive evidence, Charlie could only confess with a reluctant nod, “Okay, fine, I’ll admit that I was the one who rescued you at the Aurous Bistro, but I was simply around the neighborhood when I saw you! Please don’t tell Claire!”He fell silent after confessing. They stumbled upon an awkward silence for a while.Charlie felt quite embarrassed and awkward. He didn’t know how to face Loreen since his

After returning home, Charlie threw the encounter with Loreen out the window.However, after calming down, he suddenly remembered that he hadn’t refined the medicine he had promised Anthony Simmons and the Moore family.For them, the medicine was simply the most amazing medication the world could provide.But in Charlie’s opinion, it was merely one of the most common medicines in the Apocalyptic Book. If he could refine and produce the more powerful and magnificent medicines recorded in the book, he wondered if it could bring back the dead or even make someone immortal?Despite its possible miracle, those magnificent drugs required a lot of exotic and rare ingredients, some of which he hadn’t even heard of. Most importantly, a lot of them were primers that needed reiki to refine into usable materials. He was just a beginner in producing medicine and there’s still a long way to go. Hence, he needed to tread slowly and cautiously.Nevertheless, Charlie was willing to refine and prod

“That’s great, thanks!” Charlie said with a smile. “Remember to prepare more of them, I have other uses for them.”Charlie had all the money in the world for those ingredients but he needed a reliable channel to get them from. Good medical ingredients are like fine pieces of antique relics that are not easy to come across. For things that precious, money was not the main issue, but a legitimate way to get them was instead.His foundation in Aurous Hill was very shallow compared to the Moore family’s influence and power in the city. They would have their trustworthy resources in every aspect here.As soon as Jasmine ended the call, she received a list of medicinal ingredients from Charlie. Immediately afterward, she called Graham Quinton.Although the Quinton family was not as prominent as the Moore family, their main trade and business revolved around antiquities, cultural relics, and Chinese herbal medicine.Even Charlie didn’t know that Graham was literally the largest supplier

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

"Mr. Wilson, what you boys did was truly heinous!" Don Arnold growled. "I scolded Zachary myself when I found out, and I was the one who told him to post that statement!"Jacob was shocked. "But why, Don Arnold? Are you friends with Raymond Cole?""Never met the guy," Don Arnold replied.That left Jacob even more confused. "Then why are you taking his side?""I've been doing my best to clean up my image over the past couple of years," Don Albert replied coolly. "I rarely get involved in mob business or anything illicit, and everyone in Aurous Hill knows that Zachary is my right-hand man, yet he confessed to committing such a heinous crime behind my back. What is that if not sullying my reputation?"Jacob was left reeling as he didn't expect Don Albert to be so serious, but he quickly explained, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect it to affect you so terribly… It's all Zachary's fault! I wouldn't have been aware that Raymond had returned at all, but he just had to tell me and come up with
