Yahiko felt inexplicably excited because of Charlie’s sentence that hinted that there might be a chance in the future.Although he knew that modern medicine was already very advanced, it was still simply impossible to achieve the regeneration of severed limbs.Moreover, at the moment, modern technology was simply unable to achieve a breakthrough for a one hundred percent cell recovery. This was also the reason why there would always be a scar after a wound, and why the skin would never go back to the way that it was before the injury.If there was just a slight cut on the wrist, after the wound recovered, the scar would still be there for a lifetime. So, how could it be possible for amputated legs to actually regenerate?Not to mention the regeneration of the legs, but even after the amputation of both legs, the two large scars that were the size of a bowl at the base of the thighs could not even be made to look consistent with the skin on the other parts of the body.Yahiko had a
When Charlie saw Nanako walking in, he smiled and said, “I came to see Mr. Ito, and I was also asking Mr. Ito to do me a favor.”Nanako hurriedly asked, “Then, has your matter already been resolved, Charlie-kun? Do you need my help?”Charlie smiled and said, “It has already been settled. I was just catching up with Mr. Ito.”Yahiko hurriedly waved at his daughter and said excitedly, “Nanako, Mr. Wade just told me that he might have a way to restore my legs to their original state in the future!”“Seriously?!” Nanako’s eyes widened, and she was extremely shocked and excited as she looked at Charlie and blurted out, “Charlie-kun, do you truly have a way to restore my father to his original state?”Charlie smiled as he spoke up, “There will be an opportunity to do so, but the time is not right yet.”When Nanako heard this, she was extremely happy as she said, “That’s wonderful! There will certainly be a chance if Charlie-kun says that there is a chance!”Yahiko was in a good mood,
“Zielinski Group?”When Charlie heard these words, he could not help but say mockingly, “I’ve heard of the Wade family, the Schulz family, and the Golding family, but I have never heard of Zielinski Group.”The other party immediately clamored, “I think that there must be something wrong with your brain if you have never heard of Zielinski Group before! Zielinski Group is the largest building materials group in Oskia with hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth in assets. Moreover, our young master, Tom Zielinski’s popularity in the country is not any lower as compared to Quinn Golding. He is currently the hottest male singer in the country!”Charlie nodded as he deliberately said in a complimentary tone, “Oh, that’s amazing! In that case, your young master is the male version of Quinn Golding?”The other party raised his brows before he blurted out, “Of course! Quinn Golding is a top-class female singer, and our young master is a top-class male singer. Miss Golding has a very stron
Isaac snorted coldly. “You want to sue this hotel too? Do you know who owns this hotel?”“I don’t give a d*mn about the owner of this hotel.” Daxton curled his lips as he said disdainfully, “Isn’t it just a five-star hotel anyway? Our young master’s family has dozens of these kinds of hotels! Moreover, they are all located in first-tier cities. They cannot even be bothered to come and develop any hotels in this kind of second-tier city!”Isaac was exasperated because of this young man, and he spoke up, “Go. Go and call your young master and tell him that I, Isaac Cameron, personally said that he had undergone cosmetic surgery. If he is not convinced, tell him that I’ll be waiting here for him to sue me. Tell me what your young master is going to say about it.”Daxton was extremely angry, “Are you trying to fool me? Just wait. I’m going to call our young master now!”After he was done speaking, Daxton immediately took out his cell phone as he walked to the side to make a phone call.
As soon as Daxton heard his young master speaking with such confidence, he immediately straightened up his back.He hurriedly walked back as he raised his cell phone up high and said to Isaac, “Our young master wants to ask you something personally!”Isaac frowned in disgust as he said coldly, “Just speak up if you have something to say!”“F*ck!” A young man’s angry voice sounded from the other end of the line, “Who the hell are you?! Do you really not know what is good for yourself? Do you know who I am?!”Isaac sneered and said, “I know. Aren’t you just a singer? I heard that your family spent a lot of money to try and promote you for several years, but you still could not make it to fame. After that, you finally went abroad and changed your face before you finally became famous. Am I right?”“F*ck!” Tom, who was on the other end of the line, was so angry that he could only clench his teeth. “You’re really seeking your death! If you have the guts, why don’t you tell me your name
The captain of the security team immediately said, “Okay, Chairman Cameron!”After he was done speaking, he immediately took out his walkie-talkie and ordered, “All members of the first team, come to the presidential suite now!”When Daxton saw that Isaac was indeed serious, he immediately lowered his stance, and he spoke up as he began pleading, “Chairman Cameron, please do not lower yourself and argue with the likes of me. I’m also just serving my young master, and my young master said that he wanted this presidential suite. So, as his subordinate, that is the reason why I rushed over here to get it done for him. I was too anxious and impatient just now, and that is the reason why there was a disagreement between us. I’m really sorry. Please be the bigger person and be magnanimous…”Isaac sneered and said, “You’re begging for mercy now? It’s too late!”At this time, a dozen security guards quickly ran over.When Daxton and the others saw this scene, they were all so frightened t
There was a mountain range that went on for nearly one hundred kilometers behind the Mount Phoenix Cemetery. Although the urbanization process had been getting faster and faster over the recent years, this kind of deep mountain forest had never been developed much.Moreover, aside from a bunch of bored and foolish travelers, not many people would usually go to that kind of place.It would really not be easy to walk out of the deep mountains on foot. It was said that every now and then, there would be travelers who would be trapped there and could only rely on the rescue team to carry them out one by one. Over time, even the travelers did not dare to go there anymore.It was precisely because it would not be easy to get out that Charlie intended to throw Daxton and the others there.Anyway, Aurous Hill was located in the central plains, and there would not be any man-eating beasts even deep in the forest. They would not die inside even if they did not have any survival abilities.
Charlie then instructed again, “Oh, by the way, since you’ve already said that you’re going to give them a violent beating, you have to wait until they have already signed the contract and taken the video. Do you understand?”“Understood!”Immediately afterward, Daxton and the others were all crying and shouting out loud as they were brought to the rooftop under the security guards’ escort. Very quickly, Shangri-La hotel launched a special survival in the wilderness experience program, and Daxton and the others voluntarily signed the fair and impartial tourism service contract under the careful and watchful eyes of the security guards. They became the first batch of lucky customers who could experience this program for free.As soon as the contract was signed, these people were thrown into the helicopter directly after the security guards beat them up.The back kitchen in the dining department also sent over a bunch of food that was going to be rid of as they were about to expire
"Fuck!" When Jacob heard what Charlie said, he was horrified. He nervously asked, "Matilda isn't going to come to our house to deliver the invitation, is she? If Elaine finds out that I've been hiding Matilda's return from her all this time, I'll be so dead!" Charlie, having long seen through Jacob, knew he would never escape the shadow and claws of Elaine. He shook his head and said, "Whether they'll invite you, I have no way of knowing. If you're worried, you can tell Matilda that you don't want to be invited to her wedding and that you don't want to go." Jacob sighed. "That's just a temporary solution. Even if she doesn't know now, she'll probably find out sooner or later. A lot of our mutual friends already know about Matilda's return. You went to the gathering too. But those friends are not really in contact with Elaine, so she hasn't found out yet." Charlie smiled and said, "Matilda's return to the country was at a pretty sensitive time. If I'm not mistaken, she came b
Jacob then realized that Charlie was also driving a Rolls-Royce, and it was a more expensive Phantom. Surprised, he asked, "Charlie, where did you get this car?" Marilyn had prepared the car for Charlie when he left Scarlet Pinnacle Manor. He had driven it to Thompson First, so he had decided to use it today. Charlie replied, "A client lent it to me. You sounded urgent, so I drove it over." Then, he added, "You're something else. You're crying like a baby yet you're still in the mood to ask about the car. What's going on? Your friend said you'd cried twice already?" "That bloody Simon!" Hearing this, Jacob became furious and cursed, "He still doesn't have the slightest clue! He's such a damned fool! The more I try to avoid him, the more he keeps blabbering on and on. Argh, he's so stupid!" Charlie asked, "What exactly is bothering you?" Jacob's face instantly turned dejected, and with a long sigh, he choked up and said, "Charlie— Matilda— She's getting married—" "Gettin
Things were a little different and unique in the United States, though. Westerners tended to approach marriage with greater caution. Many couples stayed together for years, had several children, and yet remained as boyfriend and girlfriend. Being together, having children, and raising them jointly didn't necessarily mean they would get married. In fact, it was not uncommon for some to walk down the aisle only after having multiple kids. Because of this environment, elderly couples in the West often limited their relationships to dating, and at most, cohabitation. Very few progressed to the stage of marriage. However, Yolden, like a young man in the throes of passionate love, had invited her on a trip, secretly prepared a proposal ceremony by the seaside, and gotten down on one knee with a ring to propose. These actions deeply moved Matilda and, at the same time, gave her an unprecedented sense of security. Now, Yolden had moved their wedding up a big step and set the date just on
Hearing Jacob's tone, Charlie could tell that Jacob must have already learned about Matilda's plans to marry Yolden. So, Charlie said, "I'm just around the corner. I'll head over now, and we can meet at the gate." Choking up, Jacob replied, "Alright, I won't drive then. I'll wait for you at the gate. Hurry!" "Okay," Charlie agreed, but after hanging up, he deliberately waited for a few minutes. It was because Yolden had just left moments ago to pick up Matilda at Senior University. If Charlie had gone there right now, all four of them could have run into each other at the gate, which would make things even more awkward. Charlie wasn't worried about feeling awkward himself—he was more concerned about Jacob being further hurt. After intentionally waiting a bit, Charlie finally drove to the university. Just as Charlie drove toward Senior University, Matilda was waiting for Yolden by the roadside at the entrance of Senior University. At this moment, Jacob stumbled out of th
Charlie asked, "There are too many new domestic energy brands now. Do you think they still have a shot in vehicle manufacturing?" "Of course," Yolden affirmed. "There are indeed many new energy brands now, and many of them are struggling on the edge of survival. A lot of them have already disappeared, but the automotive market is so vast, and new energy vehicles only account for a small portion of it, which proves that the future of new energy still has great potential. Now, if the focus is only on competing with other new energy brands, the scale is indeed a bit small. The scope should be broadened to compete with traditional gasoline vehicle manufacturers. If you can cut Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai's global sales in half, that would truly be a giant." Yolden paused for a moment, almost as if remembering something, and then said, "Actually, you could consider researching this field. You don't lack money or resources, and with Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group as your logistics channe
When Jacob came to his senses, he was already in tears. The student presumed he was unwell and asked, "Mr. Wilson, do you want me to call your wife to pick you up?" Elaine's sarcastic face immediately popped up in his mind, and he trembled with fear. He quickly wiped away his tears and stammered, "D-don't bother... I... I just got something in my eyes..." The student obviously didn't believe him and asked worriedly, "Why don't you call your wife? Or I'll call a cab for you." "No, no." Jacob waved his hand and said, "I'll call my son-in-law to pick me up. He has just returned to Aurous Hill, so it shouldn't be a problem." After that, he quickly took out his phone and called Charlie. Just a few minutes ago, Charlie had left the cafe and was about to walk Yolden to his car. When he saw Yolden walking straight toward a domestic new energy vehicle, he asked curiously, "I don't think you were driving this model before, were you?" "I just bought it," Yolden replied with a smil
If Matilda still had feelings for Jacob, his nostalgic strategy would definitely have a strong impact. However, Matilda had already decided to move on, so Jacob's suggestion did not stir any emotions in her at all. With an apologetic smile, she said, "Sorry, Jacob, Yolden is downstairs waiting for me. We have something to discuss. How about another day? We can have dinner together, and I'll treat you." Jacob didn't expect the nostalgia strategy to fall flat. His original plan was to use nostalgia to get Matilda to go with him to eat near the school, then take the opportunity to revisit old places and subtly reignite their past memories. After all, revisiting old places was the best way to rekindle old feelings, no exceptions. It was like drinking the pasta water after cooking the pasta. However, he never imagined that Matilda's expression wouldn't change in the slightest. There was no shyness, no hesitation, no nervousness, and certainly no fluttering heart. She simply and
Matilda had been listening attentively before, but now, she was lowering her head, fiddling with her phone, and her expression even carried a hint of shyness and happiness, like that of a young girl. Jacob felt a pang of jealousy. While doing the presentation, he couldn't help but resentfully think to himself, "What has Matilda been chatting about with that Yolden guy? She's so happy..." At that moment, Matilda had just received a message from Yolden. In the message, Yolden informed her of the outcome of his conversation with Charlie and expressed his desire to have the wedding as soon as possible. Seeing how eager her beloved was to marry her, Matilda naturally felt very touched. At that moment, she had completely fallen into Yolden's love. For this man, who had a similar background, education, values, and even lifestyle to her own, she could find no fault with him. She felt that he was perfectly tailor-made for her by heaven itself, almost as if everything about him perfectly m
Charlie's worries were not unfounded. He had long known that Jacob had not completely given up on Matilda despite her relationship with Yolden. After returning from the cultural exchange in Korea, Jacob had been more dejected than ever before—something he hadn't even displayed when his family had gone bankrupt. If there was still a chance to salvage the relationship when one's beloved was merely dating someone else, their marriage was tantamount to a death sentence. Furthermore, considering the high intellectual backgrounds of Matilda and Yolden as well as their age and life experience, their decision to marry at this stage of life undoubtedly signaled their intention to build a long-term future together. This left Jacob with absolutely no chance at all. At this moment, Jacob was blissfully unaware of the devastating news and was busy conducting a calligraphy and painting workshop at Senior University. The so-called workshop was essentially a few slides showcasing classic
