Christopher hurriedly agreed before he said, “Yes, Claire. I think that it is very important for your father to build up his health again. He should recuperate in a good environment with a good mood! So, why don’t you listen to your grandmother and come back to live in the Wilson family villa? I will also hire a few nannies to take care of your father twenty-four hours a day!”Jacob, who was lying on the hospital bed at this time, felt extremely moved when he heard what his mother and brother had just said.His heart felt a little shaken, and he could not help but say, “Claire, why don’t we move back, then…”Claire felt a little conflicted.She did not know whether her grandmother was being sincere or whether she was just pretending.However, when she saw her grandmother, father, and uncle holding hands and crying together, she also felt very touched.She had to think of her father. If he could move back into the Wilson family villa and live in a comfortable environment with a ca

To expose their true colors, Charlie said, “I already said that it is no problem for all of us to move back into the Wilson family villa. After all, we are family. However, Claire’s studio is already operating, and so, I would like to remind everyone in advance that Claire will not be returning to work for the Wilson Group in the future.”“What?” Lady Wilson yelled out loud. It seemed as though someone had just stepped on her tail. She jumped up in an instant before she said, “How could I allow that to happen? I’ve already said that the whole family should not only be living together, but we should also cooperate and work hard together so that the Wilson family can be strong and powerful. How can you come back to the Wilson family villa but not work for the Wilson Group, then?”Charlie smiled before he replied, “Grandma, didn’t you say that the reason why you are inviting us to move back into the Wilson family villa is because of my father-in-law’s health? I thought that you simply w

Lady Wilson trembled as she walked toward Claire and knelt directly in front of her!Everyone in the ward was shocked at this time!Who would have ever imagined that the haughty and arrogant Lady Wilson would kneel in front of Claire?This truly was a shock to everyone!Even Christopher did not expect his mother to actually be willing to kneel in front of Claire and beg, just so that she would be able to trick Claire into going back to work for the Wilson Group.She had been so strong and arrogant throughout her entire life, always trying to control and manipulate everyone around her. How could she possibly kneel in front of someone else like this? Why would she kneel in front of Claire?Claire was also surprised and dumbfounded at this time. She quickly replied, “Grandma, what are you doing now?! Please get up! We can amicably discuss things.”Lady Wilson continued kneeling in front of Claire before she said apologetically, “Claire, what your grandmother did in the past was wro

Lady Wilson became flustered as soon as Charlie suddenly exposed her true motives.She thought that she would be able to deal with Claire’s family easily, and she thought that it would be especially easy to deal with Charlie since he was nothing but a piece of trash. Lady Wilson thought that it would not be that difficult at all and thought that Charlie would certainly feel grateful and happy as long as Harold and Wendy apologized to him.However, she did not expect Charlie to be the one to see right through her act.When she saw that her true motives had already been exposed, Lady Wilson hesitated for a moment before she said, “We are all family here, so we should all be working together so that our family can prosper! Wouldn’t it be a joke to the public if word spreads that our family is running two different companies?”Charlie sneered before he replied, “The richest man in Hong Kong, Li Ka-Shing, and his son are also running two completely different companies. So, is anyone mak

Albert replied instantly, “Mr. Wade, I have men all over Aurous Hill. I have men in most of the nightclubs, bars, karaoke bars, and construction sites. As long as you give me the order, I will instruct my men to hunt that person down and kill him immediately! I will make sure that I send men out on the streets to look for him every day and I will make sure that he wishes that he had never been born in this life!”Harold was so frightened at this moment and quickly knelt in front of Charlie as he cried and begged for his life. “Charlie, Charlie, my good brother-in-law, I was just joking around with you. Please just disregard me and just let me go. Please…”Charlie glanced at Harold coldly and asked, “Why? You’re not pretending to be indestructible anymore?”“No, no. I will not pretend anymore. I will not pretend anymore…” Harold replied immediately. He was already scared to death, how could he possibly dare to act in front of Charlie any longer?If Don Albert gave his men the order
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 333
As soon as he heard Charlie’s words, Harold, who was kneeling on the ground, was already frightened to death. He cried out as he hurriedly said, “Grandma, hurry up and tell them the truth! Please tell Charlie the truth now! If you don’t, I will truly lose my life, grandma!”Christopher was also afraid that they would be facing a lot of trouble. Therefore, he hurriedly pleaded, “Mom, just tell them the truth now.”Lady Wilson had already given up struggling at this time, and she sighed like a rooster who had already been defeated in a fight before saying, “Charlie is right. The reason why I am here today is just that I was planning to trick all of you into moving back to the Wilson family villa. My main purpose in doing that was just because I wanted to manipulate and trick Claire into going back to work for the Wilson Group.”Then, Lady Wilson tried to push the blame away from herself as she blurted out, “But I…”Charlie interrupted her before she could finish her sentence. “But no

Now, the Wilson Group was akin to a bag of rice with holes in it. To begin with, there was not much rice in it. However, the rice was now all rushing out of the bag, and the bag was almost empty!What was even more annoying was the fact that her most beloved granddaughter, Wendy, had originally had the opportunity to marry Gerald from the White family. Yet, the White family had also decided to abandon the Wilson family.Therefore, the Wilson family no longer had the support of the White family.As she thought about it, Lady Wilson could not help but shed tears immediately.Over the past few years, she had been in charge of taking care of the Wilson family and heading the operations of the Wilson Group. However, she had never expected the Wilson Group to end in this situation with her at the helm.If this continued any further, the Wilson Group would not only have to shut down completely, but they would also face a huge amount of debt. If that happened, Lady Wilson was afraid that

As the Wilson family were busy crying and cursing at Charlie, two Rolls-Royce suddenly stopped in front of the Wilson family villa.Then, six bodyguards dressed in black stepped out of the two cars. One of the bodyguards quickly opened the rear door of the car at the back, and a middle-aged man in his fifties stepped out of the car.The man was very presentable, and he was dressed in a top-notch handmade suit from a branded designer brand. He looked very dignified.The middle-aged man stepped out of the car with a copy of the Wilson family tree in his hand as he asked his assistant, “Is this the Wilson family in Aurous Hill?”The assistant nodded before he said, “Yes, Mr. Wilson. I have already checked with the Civil Affairs Bureau and confirmed that this is indeed the Wilson family in Aurous Hill.”“Alright, then.” The middle-aged man nodded and looked at the Wilson family villa before he said, “I did not expect the Wilson family in Aurous Hill to be so desolate. I guess they rea

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
