Carmen had always wholeheartedly been trying to please Lord Wade, and since Lord Wade did not want her to get a divorce, she did not mention this matter to him again.However, since their relationship had broken down, Carmen and her husband had been separated. The both of them rarely met one another, and they were basically strangers although their relationship as husband and wife still existed.As for Carmen and Zacheus, both of them were originally just old classmates, and they did not have any inappropriate relationship between the both of them at the very beginning.However, at a class reunion a few years ago, Carmen had drunk a little wine, and when everyone had begun talking about their current situation, she had begun complaining and telling her classmates that her relationship with her husband had broken down and that the both of them were already separated. However, she could not get divorced because of her father’s request. Zacheus, who had already been long widowed, const

It was because Carmen had genuine feelings for Zacheus that she decided to call Isaac even though she was obviously very afraid of Charlie. Coincidentally, Tom had just gotten his cell phone back at this time. After Charlie handed his cell phone over to him, he threatened Tom in a cold voice, “Remember, you’re only allowed to call Carmen Wade. I’ll break your hand if you dare to call a second person!”Tom felt very indignant in his heart, but he did not dare to be pretentious in front of Charlie.So, he could only nod honestly and say, “Don’t worry. I’ll call Aunt Wade now!”Charlie smiled and said, “Don’t forget to turn on the speaker!”Tom nodded resentfully. When his cell phone screen lit up, he immediately realized that there were multiple app push notifications on his cell phone.Moreover, the topic of all these push notifications was all related to himself!Some of them were ‘Tom Zielinski made a mistake once again when buying fans. Hilarious pictures of the scenes expo

“Moreover… Moreover, not only did they humiliate me, but they… They even hit me!”“Right now, my… My face is already swollen… after getting hit by them…”“But in a few days… I’ll have to attend Quinn’s concert as her… as her special guest…”“Face… If my face is so swollen, when the time comes… How could I possibly meet people like that?”“I… I cannot possibly… I cannot possibly be wearing a face mask… and impersonate a masked singer, right?”Carmen felt very powerless when she heard Tom crying so miserably over the other end of the line.She sighed before she spoke up and asked, “Tom… how did you offend Charlie?”Tom cried as he said, “I… I simply argued with him over the phone. I would not have expected that I’d get caught by his men as soon as I got off the plane…”Carmen was extremely helpless as he said, “Tom, I’d have been able to help you resolve anything regardless of who you offended in Aurous Hill, but if the person you have offended is Charlie, there is nothing I can
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 2977
Tom was completely dumbfounded when he heard this.He thought to himself, ‘Is this something that a f*cking person should be saying?! How can there be such a thing?! This b*tch is deliberately protecting her own family. She knew that I had offended her own nephew, and that is the reason why she is deliberately refusing to help to intercede on my behalf?!’Just as Tom was feeling extremely angry, Carmen said apologetically, “Tom, I’m really not lying to you. If I were to speak up, I might only be aggravating Charlie’s punishment for you instead of alleviating it…”When Tom heard the sincerity in Carmen’s tone, he could not help but feel even more puzzled as he blurted out and asked, “This… What do you mean by this, Aunt Wade? I… I cannot figure it out at all… Aren’t you, his aunt?! Wouldn’t he be willing to show you some respect at least?”Carmen laughed in a self-deprecating manner as she said, “Haha… Charlie showing me respect? His subordinates even dare to beat me up! Furthermore

She could not help but criticize him in her heart, ‘If you did not plan on letting Tom go, you could simply have said that you cannot forgive him and that it’d be useless for anyone to beg for mercy, right?’‘But you just had to force me to admit that I did not come to plead for mercy on Tom’s behalf in front of Tom. Aren’t you setting me up for injustice? Perhaps I might be his stepmother in the future! If I were to fall for your trap because of this matter, wouldn’t this child hold a feud against me in the future, then?’So, Carmen could only bite the bullet as she pleaded, “Charlie, this kid, Tom, is actually quite a good person. He is simply a little too bad-tempered at times. I hope that you will be willing to forgive him and let him off this once on my account.”Charlie smiled as he spoke, word for word, “I’m sorry, Aunt, but you really do not deserve such great respect!”As he spoke, Charlie’s voice became cold and stern as he said, “If you did not come to Aurous Hill and ac

Tom began quivering as soon as he heard that Charlie was going to break his legs and make him crawl all the way back to Eastcliff.He had already been in Eastcliff’s circle of rich heirs for more than twenty years, and based on his understanding of this circle, although the people in this circle were all arrogant, domineering, and ruthless, they would basically only be acted that way toward people who were outside this circle. Most of them would hold back and restrain themselves when it came to people from the same circle.Take Tom himself for instance. He had also bullied many people throughout so many years, and he had broken other people’s legs more than once. However, that was when he was targeting people with backgrounds that were far more inferior as compared to him. If it was someone who was in the same circle as him, he would certainly have to show the other party some respect.After all, all of them were rich and powerful, and they would have to be interacting with one anot

Carmen’s words instantly woke Tom up.Carmen was right. Even if he was still hoping that he would still have the opportunity for any mediation, he should seize the best condition that he had right now first. Otherwise, two years would end up becoming three years, and if he had no choice but to accept it, that would be equivalent to him losing another year in vain!As he thought about this, Tom hurriedly said to Charlie, “I choose the first option!”Charlie nodded and smiled as he said, “Unfortunately, one minute has already passed. The first option now is for you to go to sea and become a seaman for three years. You’re not allowed to get off the ship during these three years.”Tom’s legs suddenly went weak as he cried and said, “Charlie, I beg you not to toy around with me anymore. I chose the first option. Isn’t it okay if it’s two years?”Charlie said helplessly, “Sorry, but the rules of the game cannot be broken. The first option is now three years. I’ll give you another minute

Tom recognized Quinn’s voice instantly.At this moment, he was completely stunned as though he had just been struck by lightning, and his entire body was frozen in place as he was unable to move.He really did not know that Charlie even knew Quinn.After all, he had never heard of the marriage contract between Quinn and Charlie when they were young.At this time, Charlie looked at Quinn, who was in the video, as he smiled and asked, “Why do you think that I’m the mastermind behind this matter?”Quinn smiled broadly as she said, “Although Tom Zielinski is indeed quite stupid, I think he should not be so stupid to that extent. Besides, Brother Charlie, I think you’re the only person that would be able to pull off such an evil prank. Anyone else would never have been able to think of such a damaging prank!”When Tom heard this, he instantly felt very sad, and he could not help but wail in his heart, ‘Am I really just a fool in Quinn’s mind?!’At this time, Charlie simply smiled cal

"Five hundred grand?"Mick chuckled. "Well, the sculpture looks Renaissance, and the craftsmanship as well as the material are all ideal. It would sell for up to two million in an auction, while established antique traders like us could offer up to a million. So, why the lowball?"Bill sighed. "I won't lie—it belonged to my old man, who just croaked this afternoon. But you see, he left a will stating that every antique in the house would be given to my brother… Since he's playing favorites, I thought I had to get something for myself.""That's why I quietly sneaked this baby out without anyone else knowing and am trying to sell it quickly to change my own circumstances. You don't have to tell me how many millions it's worth—I'm not that greedy. Give me five hundred grand, and it's yours."Mick shrugged as he shot back, "If it's as you say and your old man intended for your brother to have it, the fact that you sneaked it out here makes this theft. Do you think I'd buy stolen proper

It was half past six, and the skies were darkening when a figure hurried into Antique Street, heading straight toward the center—to Vintage Deluxe.Mick Crane, the manager, was holding the fort with some of his employees, and there were some guests window shopping there as well. As Mick asked the employees to assist the guests, he waited anxiously for Billy—Zachary's henchman.Nonetheless, a certain figure rushed inside within minutes, asking eagerly as he entered, "Is the manager in? Do you still buy antiques?""Yes, and yes!" Mick exclaimed as he approached Billy enthusiastically, asking, "May I ask what you're planning to sell?"Billy looked around before sneakily holding up a parcel wrapped in red cloth, carefully lifting a corner to reveal an edge so that Mick could see.Then, he promptly lowered the cloth again, whispering, "This is the good stuff. I'm just not sure if you have the money to buy it."Mick grinned. "What are you saying? If it's something Vintage Deluxe coul

Jacob chuckled. "Can't tell you right now. But I will once it's done.""Well, have you decided when we're going to Dubai?" Elaine quickly pressed.Jacob said, "I'd have to wait until tonight to see if this deal works, but we're leaving first thing tomorrow. I'll get the tickets first, and we will be staying at the Burj Al-Arab that I told you about. People are always saying how amazing it is on the internet every day, seeing how luxurious the seven-star hotel is, but I'll be the judge of that."Elaine was overjoyed to hear that. "That's amazing! And I was just thinking we can't go sooner! Go about your business, then. I'll pack our luggage right away."Jacob chuckled smugly. "Don't pack so much, though. Just stick to the necessities, since we can get the rest over there!""Alright!" Elaine exclaimed, beside herself in excitement. "Alright, you hurry up and get your thing done over there. I'll start packing now!"After hanging up, Elaine called Charlie, who was in Champs Elys Reso

As Zachary agreed to do a favor for Vintage Deluxe's Mick Crane in passing, he and Jacob agreed to meet up at 7pm at the car park by Antique Street.He first took Jacob back to the Calligraphy and Painting Association and called Billy, one of his boys whom he thought was smarter than the rest, giving him the gist of the plan and telling him to familiarize himself with the script.Then, he took the sculpture back to Heaven Springs and met up with Billy in office, telling Billy what to do in finer detail and making sure he committed everything to memory.Zachary's strength as a judge of character certainly proved itself—Billy had never done anything like this before, but he took to the plan like fish to water. He committed the script to memory soon enough, and he was flawless.Once he made sure that Billy was fine, Zachary called Mick.As soon as Mick answered, he immediately asked, "Hello, Mr. Evans. How is that thing we talked about going?"Zachary chuckled. All the arrangements

Zachary continued, "Why do you think casinos are always making a profit? It's exactly because no matter how unassuming a guest is the first time, they would be allowed to win a couple of hands, making a little profit.""And suddenly, they would think that they are the chosen one, destined to win against all odds and always come out triumphant! Once such radical, blind confidence hits them, every last bit of his money would be lost to the casino!""At that point, you can get anything from them—their house, their wife, their children… hell, they'd be willing to die if you'd just let them gamble again!"Turning toward Jacob with a grin, Zachary then asked, "So, with all the points I made and that sculpture you're holding… Do you still think Raymond wouldn't fall for it?"Jacob laughed out loud. "Oh, talk about a plan within a plan! No one would ever see it coming! Raymond Cole is so screwed!"Zachary smiled and nodded. "That's why there's no reason to rush—I'll arrange a man to get r

As soon as they drove out of the village, Jacob asked Zachary eagerly, "So, when do you think we should make our move? I can't wait!"Zachary didn't hesitate, "Let's do it today. It's better than waiting! I'll get someone reliable to bring this to Treasure Measure and get him interested. I'm sure that since he has just returned to Antique Street, he'll need a hot deal to generate hype and make himself known. That's why I'm sure he'll take this sculpture."Jacob nodded repeatedly as he chuckled. "I think so too. Today is definitely best since I'll be going to Dubai soon and probably leaving once I'm done with this. Once you get this settled by the end of today, I'll get tickets for the flight tomorrow!"Zachary grinned. "Don't worry, chief. We will definitely get it settled today…"He trailed off for a moment before continuing, "Still, you should be a little patient. We should do this in the evening—at the second just before Raymond Cole closes shop.""But why?" Jacob asked in curi

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,
