The taste of the bolognese was very delicious, and the tomatoes were very fresh. The fire was also controlled perfectly, so the taste was excellent. Claire had cut the pork belly into diced meat before adding it into the pot. The strong flavor of the meat and the original fragrance of the tomatoes were mixed together, and it was very appetizing.Moreover, the noodles were perfectly cooked. It was not too hard or too soft, and anyone could tell that the noodles were cooked perfectly at a single glance. After that, Claire had rinsed the noodles in cold water. So, the noodles were fragrant and springy.As Charlie ate, he could not help but praise, “Wife, the noodles that you’ve cooked are truly delicious! Why have I never known that you were such a good cook?!”Claire replied a little ashamedly, “You used to be the one cooking in the past, and I rarely get involved in the kitchen. Since you like it, I’ll definitely find more opportunities to cook for you more often in the future!”Cha

When Elaine saw those two envelopes, her eyes were instantly fixed on them.After all, for a woman of her age, she would attach the most importance to the maintenance of her body.To put it bluntly, it was all about full-body skincare and body management. Body management was a tricky thing for many middle-aged women. After all, many people would be lazy or lacking perseverance if they had to exercise or do things themselves in order to shape up their bodies. So, they often failed to keep up in the end.However, skincare was much easier. They could just head to the beauty salon and lie down on the bed without having to worry about anything else. A large number of nimble and delicate young ladies would pile on various high-end skincare products on their bodies, and this would be equivalent to getting all of their full-body skincare done while enjoying the massage process.So, the wives of many wealthy men generally loved going to beauty salons and health centers.Still, the price

Isaac said seriously, “It’s already very remarkable for you to be able to hold this position. So, Mr. Wilson, you don’t need to be so humble.”As he spoke, he said again, “Mr. Wilson, since you are the executive vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, this matter is within the scope of my duties too. Since this is within the scope of my duties, I naturally cannot accept any money from you. Why don’t we do this, then? Mr. Wilson, you can tell me the specific time later, and I’ll ask my subordinates to prepare the venue for you. I’ll allow the Calligraphy and Painting Association to use the venue for free.”Jacob said in surprise, “Chairman Cameron, you are really doing us a big favor. Frankly speaking, the Calligraphy and Painting Association has been relatively tight on funds recently. We have been cutting down on the cost for the venue…”Isaac took out a business card directly before handing it over to Jacob as he smiled and said, “If the Calligraphy and Paintin

Jaime only had one purpose for secretly coming to look for Sophie in the middle of the night. He wanted to find out what Sophie and his mother had gone through during this whole time, and who was the person who had saved them.He had also listened to his mother talking about the specific process of their experience when they were at the dining table. She had told them the version of the story where this so-called mysterious person had rescued them, but he had never shown up to reveal his identity to them. Although there were no obvious loopholes logically, Jaime constantly had a feeling that something was not quite right.In addition, his paternal grandfather, Cadfan, felt that this incident was probably related to their benefactor who had rescued Jaime and his sister in Japan. So, he thought of asking Sophie about this matter in private to see if he could get her to reveal anything.As soon as he entered Sophie’s room, Jaime asked with concern, “Sophie, you did not suffer any har

Jaime asked her, “Do you honestly think that I’m a fool? Do you think that I still cannot see right through you after all these years? Based on your current state, I know that you’re obviously lying.”As he spoke, Jaime had a helpless expression on his face as he said, “Sigh. Why do you think that you’ve to hide this matter from me? Our benefactor is not only your benefactor, but he is also my benefactor. He was also the one who saved my life. I know that you want to find him to repay his kindness, and I also want to find him to repay his kindness! If he was indeed the one who saved you and mom this time, the Schulz family would owe him four lives, then! If I have the chance to do so, I would want to thank him in person, but you keep hiding the truth from me here. Does that mean that I cannot possibly have the chance to thank my benefactor in person in the future?”Sophie’s line of psychological defense was suddenly a little crushed.This was because she did not realize that her eld

After getting the information that he wanted, Jaime said to Sophie, “Sophie, you must be tired too. So, you should get some rest earlier. We can discuss anything else tomorrow!”Sophie nodded. “Okay, Brother.”Jaime stood up and said, “Alright, then. I’ll return to my room to rest first.”Sophie sent Jaime to the door before she returned to her bed. At this time, her mind was still filled with images of Charlie. She had already fallen completely for him.Meanwhile, Jaime returned to his room anxiously. The first thing that he did was to hurriedly send his grandfather, Cadfan, a voice message: “Grandpa, I already asked Sophie about it. The person who rescued her and my mother this time was indeed the Oskian who saved the both of us in Japan…”Cadfan, who was unable to sleep, was drinking tea as he sat alone in his study room. After listening to the voice message, he slumped down on his chair, and he was unable to move for some time.He muttered under his breath, “Why would such a

This helicopter whizzed past as it headed straight for the Harker family mansion’s compound.At this time, Holden Harker, who was clad in a thin jacket, was standing in wait in the courtyard.After getting off the plane and before transferring to the helicopter, Arrington had already called Holden.Holden originally did not want to see anyone from the Schulz family at all even if it was just the Schulz family’s butler.However, Arrington had told him that it was Lord Schulz who had sent him here. Holden felt a little uncertain out of respect toward Lord Schulz.He knew very well that although the Harker family was a martial arts family which was naturally very good at fighting and killing, they were nothing in front of a top-notch family such as the Schulz family. The martial arts masters had always been serving wealthy people ever since ancient times. Aside from some rash individuals, who else would dare to provoke the wealthy people?This was especially so for the Harker fami

In fact, Yuvin had held an opposing view when they were looking for Rosalie from the very beginning.He felt that at that time, the whole world already knew that it was Lord Schulz who had betrayed Rosalie. As for the Harker family, they had still insisted on looking for Rosalie in that situation. Wasn’t the Harker family clearly going against Lord Schulz, then?!The best option would be for the Harker family to say nothing and do nothing at all so that Lord Schulz could clearly see that the Harker family was constantly standing by the Schulz family’s side at all times and that they were willing to accept Rosalie’s fate for the sake of the Schulz family.In that case, Lord Schulz would certainly give more benefits to the Harker family. Rosalie would have died a worthy death if she sacrificed her own life for the greater interest of the Harker family.Unfortunately, because of Rosalie’s death, aside from his sister, Yashita’s anger, Lord Schulz also wanted to draw a clear line with

Jacob was naturally gleeful that he could get the late medieval bronze sculpture along with its base. Right after he wired the agreed upon ninety-eight grand to Mr. Cardensky, he was already imagining how Raymond would buy it from him for several hundred grand.On the other hand, once Mr. Cardensky received the transfer, he saw the name on the account: Jacob Wilson.He was left perplexed—wasn't that man's last name Montague? Who was this Jacob Wilson?Still, he didn't worry about it too much since most antique hustlers preferred to work with anonymity and therefore, using a different name was perfectly normal.He then carefully wrapped up the bronze sculpture before passing it Jacob, asking politely, "Would you happen to have any other requests, Mr. Montague? I have plenty of other items here if you'd permit me to give an introduction."Jacob shook his head, "Just this sculpture will do. I'm not fully confident in your work either since this is our first deal, so I'm just trying i

Jacob asked, "Then, what would this sculpture be worth if it was genuine?"Mr. Cardensky thought about it. "Well, there are standards when it comes to Renaissance relics, but with something this exquisite, it'd definitely be auctionable for one or two million—and that's the conservative estimate.""How much would you sell it to me for?" Jacob then asked."Thirty percent of the market price," Mr. Cardensky quickly replied. "As I've said, the conservative estimate for this one is around one to two million, so we will set the price with the median estimate value at 1.5 million. And thirty percent means 450 grand."Jacob shook his head right away. "No, no, no… that's too expensive. What if I end up unable to sell it, on top of that?"In his mind, while he could barely accept that pricing, he still needed Raymond to be able to afford it if he wanted to swindle Raymond for twice the money.Mr. Cardensky quickly chuckled, "Oh, Mr. Montague—now you're being too serious. In this business,

"Okay!"Mr. Cardensky smiled and pointed at a nearby farmyard. "There's our workshop—the good stuff is all in there. Allow me to take you there!"The farmyard seemed uninteresting at first glance, but Mr. Cardensky soon led them to the stables and brushed off the straws covering the floor, revealing a plank laid flat on the ground.Mr. Cardensky then lifted it, revealing a passage below—they had dug a cellar into the ground beneath, with the stables as an entry point.As Jacob followed Mr. Cardensky down the cellar, he exclaimed in awe, "Your operation is definitely big, digging such a huge cellar!"Mr. Cardensky smiled humbly. "Anyone working in the business would have sustained their losses before. In the end, we're all folk of humble origins, starting out with raiding tombs or excavating artifacts. Just digging a cellar is really nothing."As they conversed, they cleared the stairs and arrived at the main hall.It was certainly a hall as it was around a hundred square meters,

Zachary nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Montague? Very well!""Yes!" Jacob grinned smugly. "Longer last names are simply better—it just sounds so authoritative."With that agreed upon, both men alighted, where the master was waiting nearby.Seeing them get off, he hurried over to them, smiling, "Please, follow me."Zachary looked around and huffed, "Honestly, Mr. Cardensky, isn't this way too far from the highway? The road is narrow and terrible, and I have to park my car all the way out here. Just coming here is taxing."Mr. Cardensky smiled in turn. "My friend, that's exactly why we picked this place. Do you remember seeing a couple of cars parked by the road, occupying half of it?""We arranged for them to be there. Anyone coming by car would have to slow down that way, buying time for us to see who they truly are. If it's cops, our watchers would quietly text us while we clean the house and bail."Zachary exclaimed in realization, "You boys really run a tight ship!""For sure," Mr.

After working in Antique Street for years, Zachary's connections and influence were naturally special. And yet, though he was acquainted with some of the more impressive individuals, he was not that close with them either.For example, the forgery masters who worked specifically to deceive experts only accepted jobs from major clients, usually antique traders high in social status and wealth.In contrast, they wouldn't ever be interested in frivolous people like Zachary. Even if he could reach them, they might not look at him twice.If one would describe them as the cartel boss, then Zachary would be a low-level enforcer, managing night joints or goofing off.But now, Zachary had turned over a new leaf—he worked under Don Albert, so one of those masters was pleasantly surprised when he called one of them, inviting him to his own workshop for a visit and further discussion.As such, Zachary picked up Jacob and went over to the master's hideout where the latter worked on his count

Zachary was naturally shrewd enough to read Jacob's intention.In reality, he wasn't offering to pay just because he wanted the profit. He merely wanted to get in Jacob's good graces. After all, wouldn't Jacob be even more grateful that he wasn't just helping his revenge but also helping him make money?As such, he didn't hesitate to tell Jacob, "Well, chief—since you'll be paying, I will make sure that you will get every cent of profit that you deserve."Jacob was grinning ear-to-ear, but he said, "Oh, you don't have to! If we really are making a profit, there's no way I would let your good work go unrewarded!"Spreading his arms, he continued generously, "How about this? I will pay the full cost while you get twenty percent of the net profit!"Zachary laughed. "Now, that can wait, chief. We need to pay as soon as we decide on the item we want, and there's no time for buyer's regret. But if Raymond doesn't take the bait, all that money will go down the drain, and whether we can s

Zachary chuckled and continued, "Well, I went to Antique Street and asked around. Turns out our mutual friend only brought a few hundred thousand grand with him. If he messes up and loses all his money, won't it be over for him?""He won't just be broke either—he'd be humiliated and forced to fuck off from Antique Street. You'd get even then!"Jacob was at once excited.Just yesterday, Claire and Charlie were warning him that assault meant doing time.As the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association and the next presidential-hopeful, he would lose his place if he was charged with assault or being an accessory to a case.However, Zachary's plan was much better. Jacob wouldn't have to take responsibility, and the damage on Raymond would be even worse!In comparison, slapping Raymond meant nothing. Watching him go broke and get humiliated would really ease his heart!With that in mind, he promptly pressed Zachary, "Are you sure that prick will mess up?""I can't a

Jacob Wilson was in his office at the Calligraphy and Painting Association, planning his itinerary in Dubai.Still, he was immediately thrilled when Zachary told him that there was progress, and he quickly said, "Come see me at the Calligraphy and Painting Association. We'll talk in my office!""Alright!" Zachary agreed to it happily. "Just wait, Mr. Wilson. I'll be right there!"Jacob then quickly told him, "By the way, remember to address me as the vice president when you're here. Got it?"Zachary was naturally sharp enough to understand why, especially around other members of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.Smiling, he said, "Don't worry, chief. You can always be at ease when I'm on the job!"Once he hung up, he drove to the Calligraphy and Painting Association at top speed.There were just a dozen people around the dozens of work cubicles although Zachary was curious about the personal effects or office tools in the cubicles.After asking around, a staff member le

Then, Mick continued, "I won't lie—Moore Group's bean counters have been eager to get rid of Vintage Deluxe for a while now. It's only Miss Moore's insistence that keeps them at bay, even occasionally coming to check on how business is going. That means she holds sentiment for this place, but if she knows that Raymond is back and doing well, she might hire him again!"Zachary could laugh right then. After all, Mick was terrible at gathering information—he could worry about anyone taking his palace, but not Raymond. The man was fired because he had insulted Master Wade's father in-law, and Miss Moore was endlessly respectful—even obedient to Master Wade. There was no chance that she would hire Raymond back after what he had done, and Mick was just being paranoid.However, Zachary did not tell Mick that.As Mick was begging him to intervene and thus owing him big time, he would also be helping Jacob Wilson get even.Two birds with one stone, so why not?With that in mind, Zachar
