The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 2832
When Arrington saw Holden’s resolute attitude, he suddenly started panicking. Arrington did not know why this old b*stard, Holden, would suddenly change his mind, and Arrington did not know how he should report this matter to Lord Schulz when he got back. He had a sullen expression on his face as he pleaded desperately, trying to win him over, “Lord Harker, it does not matter if you’re not satisfied because of the money. If you’re not satisfied, you can feel free to bring it up. Lord Schulz has already mentioned that two billion dollars is just the starting price, but Lord Harker, if you’re not satisfied with this offer, Lord Schulz is willing to increase his offer. What do you think of three billion dollars?!”“Three billion dollars?!” Yuvin, who was aside, was already on the verge of losing his mind.He could no longer think about the exact concept of three billion dollars anymore, and he could only tell himself inwardly that he could increase and add on half the amount directly

Immediately afterward, Yuvin had a cold expression on his face as he spoke up, “Butler Schulz, you’re right. I might not be able to persuade my father.”As he spoke, Yuvin immediately turned the conversation around as he said, “But I can persuade my own pair of legs!”When Arrington heard these words, his eyes lit up immediately, and he blurted out as he asked, “Yuvin, what exactly do you mean by that?”Yuvin blurted out, “It’s very simple. My father might not be willing to collaborate with the Schulz family, but I’m willing to do so. However, my cultivation base is only second to Lord Harker in the Harker family. In addition, I have two sons and a group of subordinates who would be willing to follow me. As long as Lord Schulz is willing to accept us, I’m willing to bring my men with me to Sudbury to serve Lord Schulz!”Arrington was overjoyed.He thought to himself, ‘That old b*stard, Holden Harker, is simply too stubborn. It will simply be impossible to persuade him to change hi

At this time, Holden was inside the ancestral hall, and he had placed the three incense sticks in front of his father’s own ancestral tablet.Nearly a hundred Harker family’s ancestors were enshrined in the Harker family’s ancestral hall. Basically, only those who had made significant contributions to the Harker family would be qualified to place their ancestral tablet here.Amongst them, the person with the least seniority was Holden’s own father.Therefore, Holden paid his respects and placed the incense from the top to the bottom, and his father’s ancestral tablet was the last one.He had just inserted the three incense sticks that had been ignited into the incense burner, but before he could withdraw his hand from the incense burner, he heard his youngest son’s shout from outside the ancestral hall. He was startled for a moment, and he accidentally broke the three of these incense sticks all at once.When Yashita, who was aside, saw this, she hurriedly asked with concern, “Dad

After Yuroy ran back, he did not stop these people from loading their luggage into the buses. Instead, he simply ran inside the house and said to the rest of the people, “Everyone, my father said that he wants everyone to gather and wait in the main hall. He is currently worshipping our ancestors, and he will return to the main hall and make a very important announcement to everyone later.”Someone asked, “Yuroy, what important announcement is Lord Harker going to make?”Yuroy shook his head. “I don’t know the exact details either. We should just all wait together first!”At ten o’clock in the morning, the Schulz family’s convoy left on time, carrying Yuvin and more than forty other members of the Harker family all the way to the south.These members of the Harker family were all very excited on the way.This was because Arrington had told them that Lord Schulz, the head of the Schulz family, would be willing to give them an annual remuneration of one billion dollars.In truth, C

When the members of the Harker family heard the news that Holden had broken through his fourth meridian, everyone was stunned for a moment. Immediately after that, a burst of crazy cheers erupted!Breaking through four meridians would mean that Holden had become a four-star martial artist!Throughout Oskia, the ‘four-star martial artist’ title had not appeared in nearly a hundred years!To them, hearing this news was as exciting and overwhelming as when the people in Oskia had heard the news of the successful first atomic bomb explosion. Back then, Oskia had successfully developed the atomic bomb, and this meant that the citizens of Oskia would no longer be facing nuclear threats from other nuclear-armed countries anymore. At the same time, they possessed a strong ability to defend themselves.Now that Holden had successfully broken through his fourth meridian, this was almost equivalent to the Harker family owning an atomic bomb!Just a few minutes ago, everyone present had sti

As soon as Holson heard these words, he immediately nodded as he said excitedly, “In that case, I’ll naturally act according to all of your command!”For all of these people who had stayed behind, regardless of their gender or whether they were old or young, all of them were very loyal toward the Harker family and Holden. So, at this time, they would naturally embrace and support any of Holden’s decisions.Holden also realized that after his eldest son had left with that group of people, there were instantly fewer voices of opposition and questioning when he was making a major decision. This also made him realize the importance of unity in the team.The Harker family would not be like how it was before, with endless internal frictions and conflicts. On the contrary, the current Harker family would be extremely united, and all of them would work together to achieve even greater achievements!As he thought about this, Holden could not help but feel extremely excited deep down in his

Just as Yuvin’s heart was filled with indignation, someone else in the car yelled out angrily, “The Harker family has also made a public announcement stating that anyone who has left the Harker family will not be allowed to go back anymore!”Everyone was shocked and horrified for a moment.They really would not have expected that they were the ones who had abandoned the Harker family to climb up the social ladder, but unexpectedly, the Harker family would actually turn around and enforce such drastic measures to deal with this situation.Now, all of them were the Harker family’s abandoned children.Lord Schulz, who was far away in Sudbury, was also very depressed.This morning, he had been hearing almost one bad news after the other.Firstly, it was the news that Holden had suddenly gone back on his word.After that, it was the news that Holden had suddenly become the top martial artist in the country.There was nothing more painful as compared to a situation where something th

Cadfan was extremely excited, and he blurted out as he asked, “Master Xanthos, will you be able to kill a four-star martial artist?”“A four-star martial artist?” The other party asked in surprise, “Do you know of a four-star martial artist? As far as I know, there are no longer any four-star martial artists in the country anymore, right?”Cadfan gritted his teeth and said, “Yes. There is one that just came out this morning!”The other party laughed and spoke up, “It is not easy to kill a four-star martial artist. If you’d like me to try to do it, you will have to pay me double the amount.”Cadfan had already been feeling a lot of discomfort because of the extreme depression, jealousy, and anger that was pent up in his heart. When he heard these words, he replied without hesitation, “Master Xanthos, money is not an issue, but you have to finish off that top master in Aurous Hill first.”The other party hummed slightly before he said, “Don’t worry. I’ll kill him first before I come

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
