The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 314
Elaine looked very pale and shocked. She said, “Oh, I’m fine, my head simply hurts a little. The doctor checked on me and he said that I’m okay, it’s just that your father…the truck had hit his side…”She wailed loudly.It was a fatal blow to her that her husband might end up being permanently quadriplegic.After a thorough investigation, Charlie discovered that the muck truck had already escaped after the accident. Elaine and Jacob were unconscious after being hit by the truck, so they couldn’t see the truck’s license plate nor any significant feature of the truck.Later, they were sent to the hospital by Good Samaritans.Elaine’s situation was slightly better. She was sitting in the front passenger seat at the time, so she was unconscious after the accident and suffered some bruises and minor injuries. She woke up after arriving at the hospital.Jacob, on the other hand, was unlucky. Sitting in the driver’s seat, he suffered a major impact as the truck had hit his side and he e

As soon as Elaine heard that Jason had brought a renowned doctor to their ward, she shrieked in excitement and said, “Oh, Jason, thank you so much! Thank you for coming, Dr. Lynch!”Jason smiled lightly and said, “You’re welcome, I’m just offering some help whenever I can.”Then, he turned and respectfully said to Joshua behind him, “Dr. Lynch, this is Uncle Jacob, please check on him.”Joshua stepped forward and said in a confident tone, “Don’t worry, he hurt his spine, didn’t he? Although it sounds like a horrible injury, I can assure you it’s a piece of cake for me.”The doctor gasped in surprise. “As far as I’m concerned, no one can cure spinal injuries. Even the richest people in the world can only lie on the bed after they have injured their spine. Just look at Stephen Hawking—he is so bright and awesome, but he’s only able to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life and can only move three fingers due to motor neuron disease. Why are you so confident?”Joshua laughed an

Elaine’s face twisted into a disdainful grimace and she shouted, “Charlie, just shut up, you loser! Who do you think you are?! You have no say in this!”She shot daggers at Charlie and growled, “Stop messing with Dr. Lynch’s treatment. Get out!”Charlie frowned in dismay.At the same time, he thought, ‘Could it be that Joshua was the first to buy the pill from Zachary? If so, he must be the one who sold the pill to Anthony Simmons for five million dollars, that dishonest and profiteering prick!’Jason must have spent a lot of money to hire him.At this moment, Jason sneered, thinking that he had something on Charlie, “Charlie, you deadbeat loser. You must be pretty good with your mouth, huh, since there’s absolutely nothing you can do here? You and your bluff!”Then, he slapped his hands together as if something struck his mind and said, “Oh, I get it! You questioned Dr. Lynch because you don’t want Uncle Jacob to get better!”“Huh, I’m bluffing?”Charlie could endure Elaine’s

Following the direction of the sound, everyone looked towards the door and saw a middle-aged man in a smart suit walking into the ward. Jason and Dr. Lynch freaked out as soon as they saw the man, their faces turning green and their mouths wide agape.He was the dignified king of Aurous Hill’s underworld, Don Albert Rhodes!What the hell was going on?!Why was he here?Before Jason and Dr. Lynch could react to his appearance, the next scene made them dumbfounded as if they had been struck by lightning!A group of people barged into the room like a SWAT team. They were Doris Young, Zeke White, Graham Quinton, Travis Lane, Anthony Simmons, and so on! These people were prominent figures in Aurous Hill and Lancaster! They walked directly to Charlie, bowed and greeted respectfully, “Master Wade!”Charlie asked curiously, “Why are all of you here?”Don Albert answered, “Master Wade, we came as soon as we heard about your father-in-law’s accident, hope you don’t mind our sudden intru

Don Albert shot Jason an intimidating glare and said, “Master Wade is our leader, your disrespect to him is equivalent to making us your enemies. If you dare blurt a single nonsensical statement again, I’ll break your leg!”Jason’s face turned green and blue as the VIPs chided him continuously, shocked and speechless.At this moment, Anthony yelled coldly, “Come here, Joshua Lynch!”Joshua shuddered in astonishment when his name was called.Others might not know it, but he knew very clearly whether his magical elixir had cured Anthony’s illness. He could still deceive them earlier, but now that the real man was here, his bluff would be exposed!Nevertheless, he stepped forward with his head hanging low and greeted, “Master Simmons.”Anthony rebuked angrily, “I heard you say that you cured my illness with that pill in your hand, is that true?”Joshua started frantically, “I’m sorry, Master Simmons. I was just talking nonsense and bragging about something I didn’t do, please forgi

Elaine and Claire watched the situation unfolding with a stunned expression, while Jason was even more shocked and bewildered.Elaine expected the genius doctor to treat her husband, but who would have thought that he would apologize to Charlie, admitting that he was fooling them with the magical drug…Jason’s face turned green in anger and embarrassment. He clenched his fists tightly, feeling that his entire reputation was being stampeded and humiliated by Charlie. However, he refused to believe that Charlie was as powerful as these people claimed and he was unwilling to admit defeat to the loser.Unexpectedly, Don Albert suddenly sneered at him and asked Charlie, “Master Wade, what should I do with this Grant kid?”He didn’t dare to make his own decision in front of Charlie, or he would have attacked Jason immediately for his rude attitude towards Charlie.Charlie said flatly, “It’s up to you.”Don Albert grinned viciously upon Charlie’s remark, but before he could summon his m

In fact, on their way to the hospital, Charlie had planned to treat his father-in-law himself. He was positively certain that his pill could heal a spinal injury with ease.However, after he arrived at the hospital, he found out that Jason was there with Dr. Lynch and Elaine would definitely stop him from interfering with their involvement. Besides, he worried that the magical elixir that came out of nowhere would raise suspicion and it would be hard for him to explain himself.Now that Anthony was here, he was the convenient shield to handle the matter. Anthony’s reputation and stature would be an excellent cover-up for Jacob’s treatment. After all, it was more credible if the medical miracle was created in his hands. Anthony understood his concerns, yet he couldn’t help but be surprised. “Master Wade, a spinal injury is commonly complex regardless of Chinese or Western medical treatment and there’s no way to cure it by far. Are you sure your magical elixir will work?”Then, he s
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 321
Indeed, Claire was very worried about her father’s situation.She didn’t expect that Dr. Joshua Lynch, whom Jason had invited, to actually be a quack doctor.Now that Joshua had been exposed, who could she find in Aurous Hill to heal his father?Charlie brought Anthony to her and said, “Claire, this is Dr. Anthony Simmons, a famous doctor. He can cure Dad’s injury.”Claire and Elaine were overjoyed when they heard it! They never thought that Anthony Simmons, the renowned doctor in the country, would be willing to treat Jacob.Claire hurriedly said, “Dr. Simmons, thank you for your help!”Anthony smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Wade. I owe Master Wade a big favor and I’ll try my best.”Then, he walked to the bed, took out the pill, carefully cut it in half, and gingerly put it into Jacob’s mouth under everyone’s intense gaze.Everyone held their breath and anticipated.Jacob’s doctor was watching vividly. Although he didn’t believe that Chinese medicine could cure the spina

With those words, Jacob didn't wait any further as he turned and left Antique Street, intent on seeking legal counsel.Raymond watched him leave before returning to Treasure Measure.He wasn't going to leave, but he had said so because he didn't want to waste much time with Jacob.Still, to avoid any trouble, he turned the sign outside to 'closed' before locking the door from the inside.That was when a man suddenly arrived, asking through the glass door, "Can I still take a look inside, sir?"Raymond was ready to refuse without even turning around when he realized that it was Charlie.He turned around and saw him standing outside just as expected.Smiling, he hurried over to open the door for him. "It's been a while, Mr. Wade!"Charlie was aware that Raymond was sticking to his identity of 'Raymond Cole' who had not been in touch since Raymond had been fired from Vintage Deluxe.Charlie chuckled in turn. "It has indeed. And you're a business owner yourself now, too.""It's j

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
