Just as Elaine was extremely thrilled, Kevin announced loudly, “Uncles and aunties, relax, I’ll go speak to them now. Please wait for my good news!”Elaine felt that with Kevin’s presence here, they were the most invincible of them all, so she blurted excitedly, “Kevin, I’ll go with you!”Charlie quickly interjected, “Mom, I think you’d better stay away from it. If Kevin can’t solve the problem, you might get into trouble!”“Bah!” Elaine growled angrily. “How dare you doubt Kevin’s abilities, you loser?!”The other seniors expected that Kevin could help them get back their money. Now that Charlie was singing a different tune, they were irked and irritated by him.Facing the resentful glare and murmur, Charlie said flatly, “Mom, it’s better for you to wait here. It’s best to be a bystander.”Elaine found his voice disgusting and she immediately cursed, “Shut your stinky mouth! This is not a place for you to speak!”Pompousness and arrogance were written all over Kevin’s face. He

Meanwhile, in Axel Insurance’s chairman’s office, the owner, Axel Jordan, was serving a man in his forties in a respectable manner.His face was radiant with a wide smile. He retrieved a bank card from the drawer and handed it to the man with respect and said, “Don Albert, there are thirty million dollars in this card and the pin number is your birthday. This is the bonus for you, please check.”The middle-aged man was dressed in a smart suit. His face was quite rough and haggard but his predator-like eyes were as sharp as a lion.If there were other people present, they would definitely recognize the man immediately.He was Don Albert Rhodes!Everyone in Aurous Hill knew that Albert was the mafia boss of the underworld and no one dared to mess with him!Albert looked at Axel and said with a satisfied smile, “Axie, not bad. You’re pretty tactful, I’m impressed!”Axel said in an anxious tone, “Don Albert, what do we do about the old folks who are protesting out there?”Albert sa

At this moment, Kevin was standing in front of Axel Insurance’s main door with a proud face.He knew that today was the best opportunity for him to show off himself in front of Claire’s mother. He must seize the moment to prove his worth!If he could win her mother’s heart, she would be his in no time!When the time came, he could finally be with Claire Wilson, the most beautiful woman in Aurous Hill. He was in jitters as he thought of it!Hence, he announced in a loud voice, “Uncles and aunties, don’t worry. The boss will refund everyone!”Everyone cheered with joy and excitement upon hearing his statement, wide smiles were plastered on their faces.Everyone but Charlie, who looked at Kevin with a sneer. That dude was too full of himself right now, he wouldn’t even know how he would end up being later.Just when Kevin held his chin high and enjoyed the cheers, someone suddenly pushed open Axel Insurance’s door from the inside.Later, Axel and a middle-aged man in a smart suit

Just as Kevin finished his so-called intimidating threat, a studly man behind Don Albert abruptly stepped forward, grabbed Kevin by his hair, and slapped him multiple times on his face!“God d*mn it! How dare you raise your voice at Don Albert! Do you wish to die?!”Then, he grabbed Elaine and slapped her across the face, and shouted, “D*mn you old coot, how dare you to insult Don Albert! I’ll tear that stinky mouth off your face!”Boom!It felt as if Kevin and Elaine were struck by lightning!What?The man in a suit in front of them was the fearsome Don Albert of Aurous Hill?Yet they had ridiculed him ignorantly just now…Soon, blood drained their face, looking as pale as two sheets of paper. Cold sweat covered their forehead and their bodies shook uncontrollably in fear.Kevin was quick to react. He threw himself on the floor, knelt in front of Don Albert, and cried as he pleaded, “Don, I’m sorry, it’s my bad! Sorry for not recognizing you, sorry for insulting you! I have n

Elaine crouched on the floor, her body trembling violently. She closed her eyes tightly, waiting to be slapped by the muscular man, but the slap never came as she had expected.She opened her eyes in confusion and was shocked!Charlie, her good-for-nothing son-in-law, came out and held the man’s wrist!This…She felt that her mind had gone kaput for the moment—she couldn’t process the thing that was happening right now. Why was the useless Charlie so brave out of sudden?Don Albert couldn’t believe either that there’s someone dared to stand up for the d*mn old lady at a moment like this. He growled coldly, “Who are you? Do you have a death wish?”Charlie smiled faintly. “You are Don Albert, aren’t you? You can beat the h*ll out of that b*stard, but do me a favor and don’t touch my mother-in-law!”A layer of dark gloom shaded Albert’s face. “This old fart is your mother-in-law? Who do you think you are for me to do you a favor?”Albert began to huff in wrath when he said it.He

As soon as the voice resonated into Albert’s ear, his brain processed the information rapidly and registered the voice as Isaac Cameron, the man who he had been trying to curry favor with!Did he just say that he had offended his young master?Could it be this man in front of him?!Moreover, Isaac knew that there were twenty-five members in his whole family. Did he already research on his background thoroughly?Isaac Cameron was the spokesperson of the Wade family in Aurous Hill! The Wade family’s influence and power were so enormous and strong that destroying him would be as easy as smacking an ant!Albert’s legs went jelly and he trembled in fear as he listened to Isaac’s angry voice. He stuttered, “Mr. Cameron, please calm down. I… I didn’t know, it was just a misunderstanding, the young master and I…”“Shut up!” Isaac shouted, “Our Young Master’s identity is highly confidential. If you leak it out even a little, I swear I’ll wipe you and your family clean from the world!”Al

Elaine was over the moon and a little disbelieving when she heard Axel’s statement. Her money had increased from 1.3 million to two million!She asked, astonished, “Are you sure? Are you really giving me two million?”Axel nodded hurriedly. “Of course! It’s all yours!”“Wow, that’s wonderful!” Elaine shrieked in excitement.Seeing Elaine not only getting back her money but also the additional five hundred thousand dollars, the rest of the elders were tiptoeing in jittery. They felt that since Elaine’s money was refunded, they should also receive the same treatment as well, shouldn’t they?Hence, some of them started, “Mr. Jordan, what about our money?”Axel turned to Albert, exasperated.Albert was heavyhearted to surrender all the money he had pocketed, but he was up against the Wade family who he couldn’t afford to pick a fight with—he might even lose his life. Hence, he blurted, “Just refund, refund them all! For Mr. Wade’s sake, they’ll get back their capital and the dividen

Charlie glared at him coldly and muttered, “I don’t have any disputes nor any connections with you, but you kept making fun of me and taunting me, and now you want me to help you? Dream on!”Kevin collapsed and wailed, “Charlie, I’m really sorry, please help me…”Looking at Charlie’s displeased expression, Albert shouted to his men, “D*mn it you fools, what are you waiting for? Get your hands on him now!”His bodyguards were startled in shock. Then, they swiftly grabbed Kevin’s neck and hair, and started beating the crap out of him!Soon, blood flooded Kevin’s mouth and a few of his teeth were broken, but Albert’s bodyguards showed no signs of stopping. Every slap they swung towards Kevin’s face was fast and hard!Albert turned to Charlie and asked with a flattering smile, “Mr. Wade, are you satisfied with our work?”Charlie nodded casually. “Very good. Okay, that’s it, I have to go now.”Albert handed his name card to Charlie respectfully and said, “Mr. Wade, this is my number.

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
