Yashita said helplessly, “Then, you’d better ask Master Wade yourself. However, you also have to know your own place. You should not be insisting if he does not allow you to go. Otherwise, Master Wade might think that you are ignorant.”“Okay, Mom,” Rosalie responded. After that, she hurriedly took out her cell phone and walked into the bedroom inside to call Charlie. Charlie was driving on the way back to the city at this time.When he received a phone call from Rosalie, he felt surprised, and at the same time, he felt that it was also reasonably expected.He answered the call immediately and smiled as he asked, “Rosalie, why are you calling me at this time?”Rosalie hurriedly said, “Master Wade, I heard that you are going to Eastcliff, and you also asked my grandfather and the others to go over to help you. So, I wanted to ask you whether you can bring me along?”Charlie thought about it and said, “Rosalie, your identity is still very sensitive now, and the Japanese are still
Cadfan was a little surprised when he heard this, and he asked, “Porter, didn’t you say before this that you would wait until you have dealt with the Wade family on April 5th before moving your parents’ coffins up to Mount Waldron on April 6th?”“I’ve changed it.” Porter said sternly, “Ten Thousand Armies has met with some trouble overseas. I need to go to the Middle East immediately after I deal with the Wade family. Besides that, I also feel that I will be able to make the Wade family lose their reputation and feel even more embarrassed and miserable if I move my parents’ coffins in on the day of the Wade family’s ancestor worship ceremony!”Cadfan hurriedly said, “That’s for sure! If you can make it impossible for them to pay their respects to their ancestors on the day of the Tomb Sweeping Festival and pay their respects to your parents instead, the Wade family will definitely lose their reputation and image!”Porter sneered and said, “I want much more than that! I want to strip
As he spoke of this, Cadfan sneered a few times and said, “At that time, it will truly depend on who can fight better. As long as Porter Waldron manages to conquer the Wade family, take out Curtis Wade’s coffin and destroy his bones and ashes, and then take out the coffins of all the other ancestors of the Wade family before making all of the Wade family members kneel on the ground to mourn and welcome his parents’ coffins to be buried up on Mount Waldron, the Wade family’s reputation and prestige will surely be destroyed!”“As soon as Jeremiah Wade leads the entire Wade family to kneel with him, it will be impossible for him to ever stand up again in this life!”Arrington pondered for a moment and said, “If this matter really develops in the direction that you have mentioned, the Wade family’s reputation and prestige will definitely be ruined. However, even if their reputation is ruined, the Wade family’s assets will still be there. Their businesses and industries will still be ther
Charlie simply packed some clothes on the morning of April 3rd. He said goodbye to his wife, father-in-law, and mother-in-law before setting off on his journey back to Eastcliff once again.This time, Charlie did not take the Wade family’s private jet again. Instead, he took the Boeing business jet that Yule had given him instead. He prepared to set off and leave for Eastcliff together with Isaac.After boarding the plane, Charlie called Quinn and told her that he was about to take off and that he would be landing at Eastcliff Airport in about an hour or so.Quinn was naturally overjoyed, and she said on the spot that she would leave immediately to head to the airport to prepare to pick him up.Just as the plane had slowly started to roll out and was about to accelerate at the end of the runway, Charlie received a phone call from Jeremiah, the head of the Wade family. Jeremiah could not hide his excitement over the phone as he asked, “Charlie, when will you be coming to Eastcliff
If he was just a grandfather and if his second son had already passed away for so many years, he would not want to force Charlie either if he found out about his whereabouts after much difficulty. It might not be a bad choice for him to let Charlie happily live the life that he wanted. That would not only be a good thing for Charlie himself, but it would also be a good thing for his parents. After all, it would be very gratifying for his parents in heaven.However, he also understood and was well aware of his other identity. He was not only Charlie’s grandfather, but he was also the head of the Wade family. As the head of the Wade family, he would have to put the interests of the Wade family as his main priority. As a direct descendant of the Wade family, Charlie would have to return to the Wade family to serve the interests of the Wade family.What’s more, Charlie was the future son-in-law recognized by the Golding family. From this point of view alone, Charlie was worth eve
Jeremiah looked at the group of people who were burning with rage in front of him, and he shook his head gently. He knew that these people lacked understanding of Charlie. At the same time, they were worried that after Charlie had returned, they would have to divide their established vested interests. Therefore, that was the reason why they were saying all of that, just so that they could confuse him.Still, how could a cunning old man like him possibly be influenced by these people?Only two people in the Wade family truly knew about Charlie’s real abilities. Amongst them, Carmen knew some of his abilities, and Jeremiah knew even more.After Carman had been brutally beaten by Elaine in Aurous Hill the last time and subsequently kidnapped by Christopher and Harold, Charlie had mentioned some things about his own affairs in front of her.This included how he had cured the terminally ill Yule, killed The Big Eight from the Webb family, and also helped the Ito family have the last
He looked at Carmen, who looked terrified, and he thought to himself, ‘Is this really my aunt who is so arrogant and domineering that everyone in Eastcliff knows about her? In the past, she would fight to the death even if she lost a single strand of hair. However, why hasn’t she had any thoughts about taking revenge after suffering so many grievances because of Charlie?’When he thought about this, he was very unconvinced as he asked, “Aunt, don’t you think that Charlie was too much when he treated you like that back then? Don’t you feel angry at Charlie at all in the depths of your heart?”Carmen took a step back and replied with a serious expression on her face, “No, I don’t. Don’t talk nonsense…”Felix was so shocked that his jaw was wide open at this time. He was dumbfounded as he stared at Carmen. He would not have dreamt that Carmen would actually deny everything that he had said when he was using a provocative method to rekindle her anger toward Charlie…Felix was naturally
When Hugh heard that Lord Wade also wanted him to go and pick Charlie up as well, he too felt extremely unwilling and reluctant.However, there was nothing he could do even if he was feeling reluctant. Even his elder cousin brother, Felix, had already compromised, so how could he dare to resist?Therefore, he could only agree honestly.At this time, the servant trotted over to give a report, “Lord Wade, Young Master Felix, Princess Helena is here.”When Felix heard that Helena was here, the gloominess on his face eased a little.Princess Helena was Felix’s fiancée. She was Helena Elliot, a princess of the Northern Europe royal family. Although the Wade family and the Elliot family had reached a consensus on the marriage, no matter what it was, the both of them were not officially engaged yet. Therefore, out of courtesy and consideration, and also out of fear that the paparazzi and media would be spreading rumors and gossip everywhere, the Wade family had not arranged for Helena
Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade
Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd
Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki
Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should
Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e
Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,
Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl
Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i
Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove
