Chapter 3268

Author: Lord Leaf
Helena was somewhat stunned, and she hurriedly said, “This is really a little too much… Oskians say that there should be no gain without pain… I… I…”

Jeremiah laughed, “Why are you talking about gains and pain? In our Oskian tradition, it is only right to give a gift of money on your wedding day as you are officially becoming the daughter-in-law of the Wade family. It is not only your father-in-law and mother-in-law who will be giving you a gift of money, but I, as a grandfather, as well as Felix’s other uncles and aunts, will also be giving you a gift of money.”

Helena was slightly startled and she said seriously, “I mean no offense, but I feel that this custom does not seem to suit me…”

After saying that, Helena hurriedly explained, “This is mainly because most young people would basically stop asking their family for money after going to college. This is also the same case for me as well as for many of my friends. I relied on a scholarship and student loan to get into university

    When Helena heard that Felix suddenly wanted to bring her to the airport with him, she was a little confused, and she asked in surprise, “Go to the airport now? What’s the matter?”Felix explained, “It’s like this. I have a cousin brother who has been living a wandering life for twenty years now. He will be coming back to Eastcliff for the first time today, so Hugh and I are going to pick him up at the airport. You are his future sister-in-law. So, if you have nothing else to do, you should just come with me to pick him up, then.”When Helena heard this, she nodded without hesitation and said, “No problem. That is the right thing to do.”Jeremiah nodded in relief, and he smiled as she said, “Alright, then. In that case, the three of you can go to the airport together.”After saying that, Jeremiah instructed Stephen, “Stephen, hurry up and prepare the convoy.”“Okay, Lord Wade!” Stephen agreed. After that, he hurriedly left the villa first before he began to convene the convoy to p

    Felix nodded. He walked out of the villa while chatting with Hugh. After that, they stood in front of the courtyard as they waited for the convoy to arrive.Felix could not help but feel very upset at the thought of going to the airport to pick Charlie up. He clenched his teeth and cursed, “That Charlie is really f*cking awesome. He has not been back for twenty years, but now that he is coming back, I have to go and pick him up from the airport personally? Who the hell does he think he is? Is he worthy enough for me to pick him up?!”Hugh also hurriedly chimed in, “That’s right, Felix. I really do not understand. Do you think that Grandpa is already old and confused? Why does it seem like he is attaching great importance to that Charlie? It’s impossible for someone like him, who grew up on the streets, to be able to make it in Eastcliff. If any outsiders were to find out that the Wade family actually brought an immediate relative back from Aurous Hill who has not even finished univer

    “Okay!” Felix nodded and said with satisfaction, “I will not treat you badly in the future.”Hugh could not help but have a puzzled look on his face as he asked, “By the way, Felix, you are already showing him great respect by going over to the airport to pick him up personally. So, why did you ask Sister-in-Law to come along as well? No matter what it is, Sister-in-Law is still a princess from the Northern European royal family. Don’t you think that you are giving that wretched beggar too much respect by asking her to come along to pick him up?”Felix sneered and spoke up, “I intentionally want him to see Helena with his own eyes so that he can understand the difference between us! Even though Quinn from the Golding family is not that bad, she is still inferior when compared to Helena in terms of their looks and temperament!”“That’s only natural!” Hugh could not help but sigh and say, “Everything else aside, Sister-in-Law’s figure is already more than enough to crush Quinn. To be

    Hugh hurriedly said, “Felix, the wine is not decanted yet. Why don’t you wait a while?”Felix said impatiently, “Why the hell are you still decanting it?! We will have already f*cking arrived at the place by the time the wine is decanted. Just pour me a glass directly.”“Okay, Felix.” Hugh did not dare to delay it any longer, and he hurriedly poured a glass of red wine for Felix.Felix took the wine glass and gulped a big mouthful of the wine. After that, he removed his tie and stared out of the window silently with his pair of sharp eyes. A trace of coldness and grimness that could hardly be detected by ordinary people flashed through his eyes. Felix knew very well that although he was infatuated with Helena’s appearance and body, they did not have any feelings toward each other at all. In truth, both parties were only coming together to join hands in marriage because of the benefits of the interests and benefits of marriage. Helena would not let him touch her now, and she mig

    Charlie was also in an extraordinarily good mood when he saw Quinn. So, he took a few quick steps forward to her and smiled as he asked, “How long have you been here?”Quinn went forward and held his arm. She shook his arm gently as she smiled and said, “Not too long. I only watched half of a movie.”After saying that, Quinn hurriedly pulled Charlie in the direction of the car as she said, “My father and mother have prepared a whole table of dishes for you at home to welcome you! Let’s hurry up and go back!”Charlie smiled and said, “Don’t be so anxious. Mr. Cameron is still at the back. I will greet him first.”It was only then that Quinn saw Isaac, who had just come down from the boarding ladder, and she said with some embarrassment, “Sorry, Mr. Cameron. I did not notice you just now!”Isaac hurriedly said, “Miss Golding, you’re being too serious. How could anyone possibly be on your mind at this time?”When Quinn heard this, her beautiful face flushed red, but she still gave I

    He knew that these two brothers obviously did not have any good intentions when they came to pick him up today. One was ridiculing him for being away from home for twenty years, and the other one was ridiculing him for not having much education. However, all these things did not mean anything to Charlie at all. Even if both Felix and Hugh’s fathers were standing here in front of Charlie now, he would not even take a second glance at them. So, he naturally would not take two buffoons like them seriously.However, Quinn could not stand it. She raised her hand to take off her mask and sunglasses before she looked at Felix and Hugh and said angrily, “Felix! Hugh! What the hell are the both of you doing? Brother Charlie has just returned to Eastcliff and the both of you are acting like buffoons who are collaborating and acting in unison with each other. Who are you intending to disgust?”Only then did Felix and Hugh realize that the woman who was standing next to Charlie with a mask and

    When Charlie took a first glance at Helena, he was not surprised by her stunning and exotic look like every other man. Instead, he was surprised because of the excessive fairness of her skin color. It was common for Caucasians to have fair skin, but Helena’s skin was a little too fair. Her skin color gave people the feeling that she truly resembled the Elven princess in the movie . It was not only very fair, but it was much fairer as compared to that of an average fair person.Therefore, Charlie paid more attention to her physical condition. At first glance, he noticed that her body was much weaker as compared to an ordinary person. She had a typical perennial severe deficiency of qi and blood. It could be said that she was in a precarious state, and she might collapse at any time.At the moment when he was gently shaking her hand just now, Charlie had silently used his Reiki to check her body. At the same time, he also found the focus of her illness. In hi

    So, Felix was a little sullen as he stepped forward and stood in front of Helena to block her directly. After that, he had an annoyed expression on his face as he said, “Charlie, although you are my younger brother, don’t blame me for being unkind to you if you have any improper thoughts toward your sister-in-law!”After saying that, Felix looked at Quinn and Stephen before he blurted out angrily, “Miss Quinn and Mr. Thompson, the both of you have also seen what Charlie did just now, right? Did I wrong him?”Felix was not a reckless man, and the reason why he had said these words was to make sure that Quinn and Stephen had heard his words.Felix felt that Charlie had indeed taken the initiative to touch Helena’s finger just now, and if he was to blame Charlie for it, Charlie would have to admit it even if he did not want to!Stephen felt somewhat embarrassed. He did not understand why Charlie had done that either. However, Quinn had a firm and determined look on her face as she sai

    Horrified, Jacob promptly grasped the steering wheel and brought the Cullinan back under control while not hesitating to snap, "Are you crazy?! We're on the highway—that could have killed the both of us!"However, Elaine ignored him and seized the moment to open the armrest box, pulling out the large white envelope.As she opened it, she muttered, "So, it really was a wedding invitation… You really are a terrible friend, Jacob Wilson, hiding a wedding invitation like this! What's the point? Just look at that nervous face of yours—would I suspect you of having an affair with the bride-to-be?"She flipped open the card and was experienced enough to check the names first while disregarding the usual preamble. She wouldn't care about the venue or the time either, focusing solely on the professor who had somehow made Jacob very nervous.That was how Elaine found the names in less than a second: Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall.Matilda?!The name could well be knives stabbing Elaine in th

    Jacob's brain blanked out, leaving only a dull hum as soon as Walker mentioned 'Professor Hall'.Already feeling nervous in the first place, he quickly said, "Okay, okay—I got it. Anyway, I'm hanging up if there's nothing else!"With that, he promptly pressed the button to hang up.Nonetheless, Elaine was soon asking in curiosity, "Who's Professor Hall?"If Jacob had any semblance of composure, he would have said 'a colleague at Senior University' as if it was perfectly natural, and the matter would have been forgotten.But the reality was that he didn't—in fact, he was the champion when it came to dropping the ball as a casual question from Elaine left him sweating all over his brow.Even as he slid nervous glances at her face, he stammered uncontrollably, "N-Nobody…"Elaine promptly noticed his strange reaction and frowned. "I'm talking about Professor Hall. What do you mean, nobody? Who are they? And what's this about an invitation? Inviting you for what?"Seeing that he was

    Jacob had really had too much to drink and couldn't remember the later parts of what had happened last night—even how he had gotten home was a blur.Naturally, he also forgot that Walker had brought Matilda's wedding invitation, and therefore didn't hesitate to answer the in-car answer button.Over the phone, Walker was positively fawning as he asked, "Mr. Wilson? It's Walker. Why didn't you come in today? Had too much to drink last night?""Uh-huh," Jacob grunted, lethargic. "I did—my head still hurts now… Anyway, what's up? Trouble at the association?""No, of course not," Walker quickly said. "I was just worried you're still hungover, so I called to ask. If you need a driver or anything, you just need to ask!"Then, before Jacob could answer, he continued, "By the way, my wife is somewhat knowledgable in Oskian medicine, and she has recipes for brews that cure hangovers and nourish the liver. I'm sure you'll need the latter since you're always drinking at social events, so I as

    Fortunately, Elaine and Jacob's bickering never escalated.Even though Elaine was winning, Jacob found it tolerable.After Jacob finished his lunch and cleaned up, he never looked up as he said, "Charlie sent a text, saying Claire's flight would touch down earlier at three. We will leave at two."Elaine grumbled. "Why leave so early? She's coming back from abroad, and there'd be checkpoints she has to clear—she'd be lucky if she could leave by half past three. I'm sleeping a few winks now, and we'll leave at half past two."As she left the dining room, she didn't even look back as she said, "Clean up for me too."Jacob had a million complaints but said nothing as he kept his head down, throwing Elaine's lunchbox in the trash can as well.With Elaine gone, he sat on the couch as her hangover slowly cleared while his mood soured with the lack of alcohol.In the end, the pleasure of being fawned over at the Diamond Room was but temporary—the pain of his beloved leaving with someone

    Vera kept her plan to investigate the identity of the abbess deep in her mind and told Charlie nothing.Instead, she smiled as she said, "It seems that it's both yours and Ms. Ito's good fortune that she has attained enlightenment. You've never had anyone who could attain enlightenment and master Reiki at the same time, so Ms. Ito will definitely be a great help to you in the future."Charlie chuckled and said calmly, "I'm not hoping for her to help. I'm simply happy for her with her enlightenment and excited to have another comrade in my solo ventures into the dark forests."Vera nodded in understanding, and she murmured emotionally, "I've lived for so long, and it's only when I opened my heart to you that I felt that sensation you described."There was a flicker of wistfulness in her eyes.She really did not expect to attain enlightenment before meeting Charlie.Years ago, she thought that she would eventually avenge her father.Now, she no longer hoped to murder Fleur Griffi

    Vera was inwardly disappointed to hear that Claire was returning.That meant there were fewer chances of Charlie visiting the Scarlet Pinnacle Manor, as were her chances of seeing him again.Still, she didn't let it show, instead asking casually, "How are things at Champs Elys? Are the warriors improving at a rate to your satisfaction?""Well, most of everyone's improvement is within expectations…" Charlie explained, just as he remembered a certain someone. "By the way, there's something I haven't told you yet. Are you perhaps acquainted with the name Ito Nanako?""Yes," Vera smiled. "The Japanese lady who was with you. What about her?""She attained enlightenment days ago.""Enlightenment?" Vera did a double take and soon pressed, "Enlightenment in what sense? Essential Qi or Reiki?"After all, the former was the path to enlightenment in martial arts, while the latter meant enlightenment in cultivation.But despite the distinction between both domains, enlightenment was a comm

    While Charlie had long since gotten used to Elaine and Jacob's bizarre marriage, being near the heart of the storm still took a toll on his senses—to the point that he felt physically sick.Leaving right away was therefore his best solution.Once he left, however, he realized he didn't have anywhere to go. Champs Elys was quite far, and it would take a lot of time.As he started to feel bored stiff, he remembered Vera for some reason and called her.Once Vera answered, she quickly asked in curiosity, "To what do I owe the pleasure? Lunch, perhaps?"Charlie chuckled. "Since you've put it that way… I haven't eaten either, so lunch it is!"Vera giggled. "Come over to my place, then. It's cold outside, and I was just lighting up a hot pot. I'll have Madam Marilyn prepare an additional portion.""Okay!" Charlie agreed to it without hesitation. "I can return her car too. Just wait, I'll be right there!"Once he hung up, he got on the Rolls Roycs he had borrowed from Scarlet Pinnacl

    Charlie shook his head. "It's alright, Dad. You can go ahead if you're busy—I can pick up Claire on my own.""No way!" Elaine promptly snapped. "It's been so long since she came back. We are all going to the airport!"Jacob sighed in exasperation. "Well, I'm sticking to my schedule—first the Calligraphy and Painting Association, then I'll be back an hour before to pick you guys up before going together to the airport."Elaine was left fuming. "Is there no getting through to you? You really have to go to that stupid association, don't you? Okay, fine. If you must go, I will be going with you!""You're their honored vice president who will be promoted to president soon, no? As Mrs. Vice President and the future Mrs. President, is there an issue if I went for a look?"Jacob shuddered at the thought of Elaine going to the Calligraphy and Painting Association as he absolutely didn't want her to humiliate him with her antics. People would talk, asking how a proper gentleman like him c

    Jacob yawned, stretching his arms and smacking his cheeks, before finally retorting in contempt, "For Pete's sake, woman—don't make dissing me a habit. Or does it please you so much?"Elaine pursed her lips. "You call that dissing? It's all facts—do you think I don't know you? Tell me, what qualifications do you have? Your knowledge about calligraphy is skin-deep, and even the frauds working on Antique Street could beat you.""Only you would have the audacity to take the role of vice president at the Calligraphy and Painting Association—heaven's above, how blind is the president to appoint you as his second fiddle? Still, you'll be packing your things as soon as he realizes the truth.""Oh, Elaine, poor Elaine…" Jacob grinned smugly at her right then. "I'm afraid things won't go the way you want. Mr. Bay's been chasing a promotion lately, and once he gets it, I will take his place as president. That means I'll be the top dog instead of second fiddle!""Bullshit!" Elaine snapped in
