Charlie shook his head and said, “That’s different. Sophie’s sense of right and wrong is also very strong. There are several irrefutable reasons as to why I sent her father off to Syria. The first reason is that Sheldon was indeed the one who had organized the Anti-Wade Alliance, and he also had a grudge against my father. Secondly, Sheldon himself was the one who was worse than a beast when he aided and abetted the enemy, which indirectly caused both of his daughters to be placed in danger. Thirdly, as a father, Sheldon not only watched on unfeelingly and acted unconcerned and indifferently when his daughter met with a mishap, but he even continued groveling in front of his father, Cadfan Schulz, in order to flatter and please him. If I send someone like him to Syria, Sophie also knows that he deserves it.”As he spoke, Charlie then said, “However, if I were to send Jaime off to Syria now as well, Sophie would definitely not be able to accept it. Besides, I do not have any reasonable

When she saw Jaime, Sophie hurriedly stopped in her tracks and silently turned to the side, so as not to be recognized by him.At the same time, she secretly glanced at Jaime, who was twenty to thirty meters away. When she saw her elder brother’s overly attentive and flattering look in front of Dorothy, she suddenly felt a little disgusted.She abruptly felt that all of the men in the Schulz family had a very strong sense of motive and purpose in everything that they did.Take her father, Sheldon, as an example. Both of his daughters had nearly died in Sophie’s grandfather’s hands, but when Sophie’s grandfather needed Sheldon to come out to put on a front and keep up appearances, Sheldon was still able to drop everything and return to her grandfather’s side to play the role of a filial son. In the final analysis, it was all because of his desire to compete for the position as the heir of the Schulz family.His daughter was not as important in the face of this purpose.As for her

What he wanted was to use this kind of foolish generosity to gain Quinn’s favor.Jaime himself was also very impressed with the fact that he was willing to spend thirty million dollars just to make his sweetheart’s concert reach the top international level. He felt that he would certainly be able to win Quinn’s favor with this move.Moreover, he even thought that if his love confession at the concert were to turn out to be unsuccessful, he would just look for a public relations company to help him put everything into place on the whole network.By then, as long as the media exposed the fact that he had spent thirty million dollars and branded him as an ‘infatuated man’, this would also put a strong psychological pressure on Quinn.Sometimes, moral kidnapping was also a good method to pursue the other party.Dorothy, who was also someone with extensive experience, naturally knew the reason behind Jaime’s devotion and attentiveness. She hurriedly said to Jaime, “Young Master Schulz,

At this time, in the first car of the Rolls-Royce convoy.Jaime sat next to Dorothy as he smiled and said, “Dorothy, I’ve taken a lot of advertising space in Aurous Hill during this time, and I’ve already begun playing a lot of Miss Golding’s concert promotional posters twenty-four hours a day. You will be able to see at least twenty to thirty advertising resources on the way into the city later.”Dorothy was a little puzzled, and she asked, “Young Master Schulz, Quinn’s concert tickets seem to have already been sold out long ago. So, isn’t it a little wasteful for you to do so much on-site promotion now?”Jaime smiled, and he had a serious expression on his face as he said, “I’m building up the momentum! Although the full capacity of the concert has already been reached, that is only about thirty thousand to fifty thousand people after all. The population of permanent residence in Aurous Hill is almost ten million people. If we can also cover the rest of these people, this will als

However, Dorothy was actually rather surprised by Charlie’s methods.Although Tom’s family’s strength and background were not as strong as the son of a wealthy family such as Jaime, the Zielinski family could still be considered amongst the first echelon in the country.Even Jaime would never dare to use such a cruel and brutal method on him, but it seemed as though Charlie did not care about that at all. Tom was a rich heir who was also a big celebrity with a rising career, but his bright future was completely destroyed by Charlie as soon as he arrived in Aurous Hill. Dorothy had never seen anything like this happen in the circle before.***When the convoy arrived at the entrance of Shangri-La, Jaime spoke up as he said to Dorothy, “Dorothy, you guys have already booked the rooms in advance, right?”“Yes.” Dorothy nodded. “It has already been booked in advance.”Jaime was relieved, and he said, “Alright then, I’ll not send you in. I’ll wait for you in the car since you will hav

Dorothy, who was helpless, could only open the luggage at Quinn’s request as she took out the item that Quinn had been thinking of.Quinn stared at the video for a long time, and she heaved a sigh of relief when she made sure that there was nothing wrong with it. After that, she instructed, “Dorothy, you have to make sure that you keep my treasure safe. Don’t make any mistakes.”“Don’t worry.” Dorothy curled her lips and said, “I’d rather meet with a mishap than let anything bad happen to it. Are you satisfied?”“Hehe!” Quinn happily rested her chin in both of her hands, and she smiled happily as she said, “Dorothy, you’re the best! I love you!”“Don’t. Don’t love me!” Dorothy grunted with disgust. “You’d better go and love your Brother Charlie instead!”Quinn responded seriously, “Oh, you’re right! How could I possibly say those words to you? Charlie is obviously the only person who is worthy of it!”Dorothy was exasperated and said, “Quinn Golding! You’re really an ungrateful p

Jaime hurriedly explained, “Dorothy, don’t get so worked up first. I know that I have no right to make any changes to your performance execution plan, but I only did it out of the goodness of my heart. After all, this will be Miss Golding’s first performance for her concert tour this year. I only wanted to make this performance even more perfect, and that is the reason why I took the liberty to adjust the overall plan without informing you in advance.”As he spoke of this, Jaime then assured her, “But Dorothy, you can rest assured. I specifically invited the best lighting and sound engineer from the United States this time. They are liaising with your original executive team, and the equipment has been fully optimized according to your previous execution plan. So, you can rest assured that the performance effect will only be enhanced, and it would not be compromised in any way.”Dorothy looked at Jaime and said seriously, “Young Master Schulz, this matter is not just a matter of good

That night, after checking all the hardware and equipment at the venue, Dorothy returned to the hotel upon making sure that there were no problems.When she had just arrived at the room, Dorothy immediately made a video call to Quinn.When the call was connected, Quinn was wearing her pajamas, and she had a facial mask on as she rested in her bedroom.She then spoke up and asked Dorothy, “Dorothy, is everything at the venue done?”Dorothy nodded. “Everything’s done. You can rehearse immediately after you arrive tomorrow.”“That’s great!” Quinn heaved a sigh of relief, and she had a serious expression on her face as she said, “I’ve held so many concerts before, but I’ve never felt as nervous as I do this time. There must be absolutely no mistakes during my concert!”Dorothy then thought of Jaime’s matter. So, she said, “By the way, Quinn, there is something that I have to report to you.”“Speak up.”Dorothy then said, “This is what happened. Jaime Schulz bribed the executive com

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade

In groups like these, any gossip would immediately spread like wildfire as people share everything here with their other circles.Within minutes of these people's good work, Antique Street was abuzz even as the skies darkened: one of the antique traders had been swindled for 300 thousand, and it was Raymond Cole—the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe at that!Some of them wondered when Raymond had actually returned while others were laughing.He was supposed to be the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe, but he had messed up as well? You had to be kidding!Many were dumbstruck too—how would Raymond survive in Antique Street after losing so much money? It had been so long since such a major scam had been pulled!As such, all the antique dealers were asking one question: how did Raymond Cole get fooled?Meanwhile, Mick didn't leak the security footage right away, instead sending his people out to spread the news in other channels, claiming that Raymond thought he had won big by
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6475
Mick had already clipped the security footage and was waiting for Zachary's word.He had checked the footage repeatedly as well and was only getting more impressed with his masterful acting by the second. He looked just like a maestro, and every detail he mentioned was flawless and showed experience.Zacahry even said that Raymond had truly slipped up with that bronze sculpture, leaving him endlessly thrilled.The proverbial missing piece of the puzzle was here!Hence, calling all the staff he trusted, he told them excitedly, "Spread the word right away—Raymond Cole slipped up, spending 300 thousand on a fake Renaissance-era bronze sculpture!"His staff had no idea of the conspiracy involved, only that Mick had said that someone had tried to sell a counterfeit bronze sculpture but he had seen through it right away and chased him away, only for Raymond to end up buying the fake bronze sculpture soon after.Someone asked, "Mr. Crane, don't you think Raymond Cole bought from the man
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6474
Raymond had said everything he should and shouldn't and with complete sincerity exactly because Billy would never believe it.As Billy just wanted to swindle him, it didn't matter how sincere Raymond was—he wanted the 300 thousand whatever it took. The key here was that Billy had refused a better prospect when told it was possible, and there was evidence that would support Raymond if either he or Zachary realized the truth and came to start trouble.That meant Raymond had nothing to worry about—they could take this to the United Nations but he'd still win this case.Having been in the antique trade for so long, he had seen every form of oddity and was always cautious with people, considering every aspect of any issue.Hence, once he downloaded the security footage to his phone, Raymond decided that he needed to sell the bronze sculpture—not because he was in urgent need of money, but because he realized that there were those who wanted him out of Aurous Hill's Antique Street.Afte
